The prosecution has rested its case in the attempted murder trial of Zachary Buza of Terre Haute.
The jury in Parke Circuit Court heard Buza in a videotaped interview tell Indiana State Police detectives that he knew there was a likelihood that shooting at police on July 22, 2012, could injure or kill an officer.
That is the day that police responded to a domestic dispute on Main Street in Rosedale, and the day Buza was arrested after a three-hour standoff with police. Buza has been accused of trying to kill ISP Trooper Michael Organ by shooting in the direction of his patrol car, behind which the officer had sought cover, three times during the incident.
Buza has been charged with seven felony counts, including attempted murder, attempted voluntary manslaughter, aggravated battery, criminal recklessness and strangulation.
The defense team is expected to begin calling witnesses this afternoon when the trial resumes after a lunch break. Attorney Jim Bruner told Judge Sam Swaim that he will also have an expert witness testify Friday morning.
Closing arguments are expected Friday afternoon, to be followed by jury deliberations.

The Bodyguard is definitely worth seeing. Beverly Knight is excellent, the costumes are incredible and the dancing is uplifting. Well worth seeing.
Sarah Penton About 4 days agoRated as: 4/5 -
I enjoyed the movie so wasn't sure I would like the show. Really loved it , very well done and the singing was first class, I also thought the set was good. The seats were good and received the tickets with no problems
CaroleP Fri Dec 6Rated as: 4/5 -
I'm not a musical fan at all. I had to be dragged along to this. BUT . . .what a pleasant surprise. The plot isn't amazing and is a bit cheesy (I hadn't seen the film), but that's often the case with musicals. The whole thing stands or falls on whether you like the music I suppose - and Whitney's hits come thick and fast. I think it was Joelle Moses playing the lead (Thurs 3rd October - certainly wasn't Beverley Knight) - but I couldn't care less. She sang amazingly well. The 'big' number on the rising podium was spot on. There is a laugh or two along the way - and the set is as good as a set can be (the set at the Academy Award ceremony is simple, yet brilliant), and a very clever use of slient slow-mo in a disco scene. We did have the best seats (centre stalls row F) - which always adds how much a show like this come across. I don't see how anyone could rate this low - unless they hate the music of Whitney Houston fans - and in that case why are they going? A good, easy, uplifting and fun night out. Not for theatre snobs I guess (based on some reviews), but I, for one, left feeling very entertained.

I was really dissapointed about singing and acting. The whole performance was below the expectations.
miha Mon Sep 30Rated as: 2/5 -
First half is slow, no belting out of numbers, stage graphics out of sync and dated. Doesn't strutt when on stage, but looks at her shoes? What's that about! You're supposed to be an established star. Only until the last song of the first act does it start to pick up. Note to sound technician - turn her mic up! Second half much better. Seriously lacks tone and warmth though. Not worth the money. Ghost FAR BETTER!

The review is spot on! I waited so long to see this and while it was the most amazing set I have seen in a musical (they did have to stop the show 3 times as the set wouldn't move...disaster) the acting was beyond bad. The character of Rachel is extremely unlikeable and Frank is so monotone. I want to like it, I really do....but the money and time seems to have all gone to the set and not into the script. Ohhh and Rachel wears the same jeans in about 6 scenes...that annoyed the crap outta me! No metal dress, just those jeans!!!

What can I say a wonderful musical and at a price that everyone can afford. Do yourself a faver an see this must see musical as soon as possible. FANTASTIC !!!!!!
Rowan Black Wed Dec 12 2012Rated as: 5/5 -
I couldn't agree more with The Guardian and Time Out's review. I saw during preview period and both my friend and myself were not impressed. The show and performers are very much let down by the book, there isn't the tension that should be there, the iconic outfit featured in the marketing and advertising on the programme cover doesn't even feature in the show. Was very disappointing but fantastic individual performances.

Stars like Elle Fanning, Hailee Steinfeld and Lea Michele make the summer staple winter-ready with tights, platforms, and lots of layers.
Toss those denim cut-offs on in place of jeans, or wear fancier styles, like Amanda Seyfried's scalloped pair, in lieu of this season's voluminous mini skirt. Stick with heavier materials, like wool and leather, which look instantly look winter-appropriate. When it comes to colors, opt for festive patterns, especially plaid and pinstripes, and rich hues like Elle Fanning's red number. Still not sure if you can pull off the trend? Simply swap your go-to skirt for a fancy pair of shorts, and style the rest of your outfit the same.

If I had 3 million dollars what would I do with it? Has that thought ever run through your mind? It has for me. Emily made a blog about what she would do with 3 million dollars. Here's what I would do with 3 million dollars.
First I would take about some of the money and put it into savings.
Second I would buy a car.
Third I would help my parents with any debt they have.
Fourth I would give some money to charity.
Fifth I would take my family on vacation to anywhere they would want to go.
Sixth I would go to some of the places where there are starving and homeless children and adults and help them.
Seventh I would also help out any of my other family members who are having money problems.
Eighth I would redo my whole house.
Ninth I would go and do all the adventurous things I've always wanted to do.
Lastly I would just simply go shopping.
I wish that I could win or get 3 million dollars. The chances of that are very slim. I would make sure the money went to good use. After reading this I hope you decide what you would do with 3 million dollars. Thanks for reading!

The American Diabetes Association and the American Dietetic Association have developed specific dietary guidelines for people with diabetes . This article focuses on diet recommendations for people with type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes diet; Diet - diabetes - type 2
If you have type 2 diabetes , your main focus is often on weight control. Most people with this disease are overweight.
You can improve blood sugar (glucose) levels by following a meal plan that has:
Examples of foods that are high in monounsaturated fats include peanut or almond butter, almonds, and walnuts. You can substitute these foods for carbohydrates, but keep portions small because these foods are high in calories. Learn how to read nutrition labels to help you make better food choices.
Often, you can improve type 2 diabetes control by losing weight (about 10 pounds) and increasing physical activity (for example, 30 minutes of walking per day). In addition to making lifestyle changes, some people will need to take pills or insulin injections to control their blood sugar.
Children with type 2 diabetes present special challenges. Meal plans should consider the amount of calories children need to grow. Kids often need three smaller meals and three snacks to meet their calorie needs. The goal should be a healthy weight (most children with type 2 diabetes are obese) and increased physical activity.
Changes in eating habits and increased exercise help improve blood sugar control. When at parties or during holidays, your child may still eat sugary foods. But during other times of the day, the child should have fewer carbohydrates. Children who eat birthday cake, Halloween candy, or other sweets should NOT have the usual daily amount of potatoes, pasta, or rice. This substitution helps keep calories and carbohydrates in better balance.
One of the most challenging aspects of managing diabetes is meal planning. Work closely with the doctor and dietitian to design a meal plan that keeps the blood sugar (glucose) levels near normal. The meal plan should give you or your child the proper amount of calories to maintain a healthy body weight.
Having diabetes does not mean you or your child must completely give up any food, but it does change the kinds of foods your child should eat routinely. Choose foods with moderate amounts of carbohydrates (about 30 - 45 grams per meal) to help keep blood sugar levels under good control. Foods should also provide enough calories to maintain a healthy weight. Regular monitoring of blood sugar (glucose) at home will help you learn how different foods affect blood sugar (glucose) levels.
A registered dietitian can help you decide how to balance the carbohydrates, protein, and fat in your diet. Here are some general guidelines:
The amount of each type of food you eat depends on:
Everyone has individual needs. Work with your doctor, and possibly a dietitian, to develop a meal plan that works for you.
The Diabetes Food Pyramid, which resembles the old USDA food guide pyramid, splits foods into six groups in a range of serving sizes. In the Diabetes Food Pyramid, food groups are based on carbohydrate and protein content instead of their food type. A person with diabetes should eat more of the foods in the bottom of the pyramid (grains, beans, vegetables) than those on the top (fats and sweets). This diet will help keep your heart and body systems healthy.
Another method, similar to the new "plate" USDA food guide, encourages larger portions of vegetables (half the plate) and moderate portions of protein (one-quarter of the plate) and starch (one-quarter of the plate).
(6 or more servings a day)
Foods like bread, grains, beans, rice, pasta, and starchy vegetables are at the bottom of the pyramid because they should serve as the foundation of your diet. As a group, these foods are loaded with vitamins, minerals, fiber, and healthy carbohydrates.
It is important, however, to eat foods with plenty of fiber. Choose whole-grain foods such as whole-grain bread or crackers, tortillas, bran cereal, brown rice, or beans. Use whole-wheat or other whole-grain flours in cooking and baking. Choose low-fat breads, such as bagels, tortillas, English muffins, and pita bread.
(3 - 5 servings a day)
Choose fresh or frozen vegetables without added sauces, fats, or salt. Opt for more dark green and deep yellow vegetables, such as spinach, broccoli, romaine lettuce, carrots, and peppers.
(2 - 4 servings a day)
Choose whole fruits more often than juices. Whole fruits have more fiber. Citrus fruits, such as oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines, are best. Drink fruit juices that do NOT have added sweeteners or syrups.
(2 - 3 servings a day)
Choose low-fat or nonfat milk or yogurt. Yogurt has natural sugar in it, but it can also contain added sugar or artificial sweeteners. Yogurt with artificial sweeteners has fewer calories than yogurt with added sugar.
Eat fish and poultry more often. Remove the skin from chicken and turkey. Select lean cuts of beef, veal, pork, or wild game. Trim all visible fat from meat. Bake, roast, broil, grill, or boil instead of frying.
In general, you should limit your intake of fatty foods, especially those high in saturated fat, such as hamburgers, cheese, bacon, and butter.
If you choose to drink alcohol, limit the amount and have it with a meal. Check with your health care provider about how alcohol will affect your blood sugar, and to determine a safe amount for you.
Sweets are high in fat and sugar, so keep portion sizes small. Here are some tips to help avoid eating too many sweets:
Learn how to read food labels, and consult them when making food decisions.
American Diabetes Association. Standards of medical care in diabetes -- 2011. Diabetes Care.
American Diabetes Association. Nutrition recommendations and interventions for diabetes: a position statement of the American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2008;31:S61-S78.

In an exclusive interview with CNN earlier this week, McAfee said he fears authorities in Belize and said he'd been afraid for his life ever since he refused to pay a bribe to a politician months earlier.
Martinez said the interview showed McAfee was trying to use media, especially international outlets, "as pawns in his game for sympathy."
"I think he really wants to make this into a great fiasco," he said.
"He's really gone out of his way to make the country look bad, and we just believe he should, if he's innocent as he's saying he is, he should bring in his lawyer, and let's get to the bottom of this and say what he needs to say and let's move on," Martinez said. "I'm sure he could be somebody who could direct the course of this investigation."
On his website, McAfee said he has hired Guerra "to assist in my fight against the government of Belize" and apologized for the secrecy surrounding his relocation. He did not provide details about how -- or when -- he arrived in Guatemala.
"It was not easy to exit Belize and required many supporters in many countries," he wrote.
He said he planned to meet with Guatemalan officials and hoped to speak to reporters in a news conference Wednesday.
McAfee founded his namesake computer security software in 1987, initially running it out of his home in California. He sold his stake in McAfee Associates in 1994 and moved to Belize in 2008.
The case began to unfold on November 9, when McAfee told police someone had poisoned four of his dogs. To put them out of their misery, he shot each in the head and buried them on his property, a former girlfriend said.
Officials say the dogs' barking and aggressive behavior was a frequent source of friction between McAfee and Faull, a contractor who retired to Belize from Florida and lived next door. McAfee lived in the remote northern part of Ambergris Caye.
Two days later, someone shot Faull in the head in his own living room. A 9 mm shell was found on the second step on the first floor, and Faull was found dead on the second floor.
McAfee told CNN in the interview that he did not kill Faull and did not pay anybody to kill the man.
He said he will not surrender to police for questioning, adding that his priority is to clear his name.
Three people have been detained for questioning in the killing, police have said, and investigators are pursuing multiple leads.
A 2009 story in the New York Times indicated that McAfee's fortune had plunged to $4 million from its $100 million peak, largely because of the real estate and stock market crashes that hit his investments.
In February 2010, he started QuorumEx, which says on its website to be trying to "reinvent the way modern medicine combats and disarms pathogenic bacteria."

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott's "Home Sweet Hollywood" now has a new addition.
The couple, who've filmed six seasons of their family reality show, welcomed a baby boy on Thursday, according to Spelling's website.
"We are so excited to announce the birth of the newest member of the McDermott family!" Spelling, 39, wrote. "Please join us in welcoming Finn Davey McDermott."
Finn Davey was born at 5:39 p.m. on August 30, weighing in at 6 pounds, 6 ounces. He's the fourth child for the actor pair, who are also parents to 5-year-old Liam, 4-year-old Stella and 10-month-old Hattie. Dad McDermott also has a teen son from a prior relationship.
Finn was a surprise for the couple, who learned that "Craft Wars" host Spelling was expecting again five months following Hattie's arrival.
"We feel truly blessed that another angel has found us," the proud mom said at the time.

Our forward-thinking designs follow a simple five-step process that gets results.
We start by clearly articulating the scope of work in the project. Deliverables include a project charter, formal schedule, requirements document, and communication brief.
We focus on content and how it will show up on various devices, make sure we have everything we need, and think big-picture.
Design is the heart of the process, when we typically produce several rounds of visual designs and incorporate feedback along the way.
During the build, we take great care to use every modern best-practice that's appropriate, from graphics to layout to SEO and more.
Launch includes moving the website to production servers and optimizing for the production environment. Then we get the word out.
But don't just take our word for it.

Since a few people have already mentioned this, I figured I would post this up for anybody interested at am.com, just to make sure everybody was in the loop, and not surprised down the road. Although this is totally unofficial, from what Ive been hearing and from what Ive read elsewhere, its looks very much like IBE is seriously thinking of getting out of phs, selling out of their ph line and being done with them all together.
I cant confirm that the decision has already been made, its not my place, Im just a rep sharing some information with you all, and nothing in this market is absolute, but given the current climate in the market, the things weve all seen over the last few years, I get the sense that this will probably be the eventual outcome because they have already taken steps in that direction.
So as of right now it looks like they are selling off the remainder of what they have of the PH's and getting out of that side of the market, which includes blowing out the newest product, ProtoMax, which I believe they have the largest quantity of, since it was only recently released and currently is still in production, and they are practically giving it away for $19.99.
I will post more information as I get it, I just thought some of you would want to know whats going on.

The UMUC Undergraduate School Learning Model
The seven principles of our learning model are:
Faculty engagement, including faculty's active and motivating presence, outreach to students, and facilitation of interaction with students.
Student collaboration, including group activities and assignments guided by clear direction and evaluation criteria.
Active learning, including application, summary and reflection, and connection to real-world experience.
Frequent and prompt feedback on all assignments and activities, including comments on performance, criteria for success, encouragement and referrals for further support.
Time on task, meaning focus on activities directly related to learning outcomes, adequate guidance, and clear connection of assignments to outcomes.
High expectations, in keeping with UMUC's standards for academic rigor and the faculty member's responsibility to challenge and motivate students.
Respect for diversity, including diversity of culture, ethnicity, academic backgrounds, and individual needs as well as learning styles.
Applying the Learning Model to Your Own Learning as a UMUC Student
Are you an active learner? Evaluate your own participation and readiness using these guidelines and examples.
1. Faculty Engagement
You take advantage of your faculty member's active and motivating presence, outreach to students, and facilitation of exchanges with students.
Respond to questions and comments from your faculty member.
Ask for clarification when you do not understand or need more information.
Participate regularly and fully in class discussion.
Try to apply your instructor's suggestions in your later work.
Ask for help when you need it.
2. Student Collaboration
You deepen your own learning by engaging with other students.
Share your own viewpoints, knowledge and experience appropriately with the class.
Participate in groups, teams, peer review, or other class presentations or discussions.
Carry your weight in group work, contributing to the team and helping to determine the ground rules for collaboration.
Respect and respond to the viewpoints of other class members and use them to refine your own thinking.
Offer constructive comments to other students.
Ask for explanation or criteria when group assignments are not clear.
Reflect on the learning activity, the group dynamic, and the way the exchange of views changed your work in the class.
3. Active Learning
You learn through application, summary and reflection, and connection to real-world experience.
Present and discuss your work and ideas with the class.
Relate outside events or activities and your own experience to the subjects covered in the course.
Support your point of view with appropriate evidence, logic, and explanation.
Respectfully challenge ideas, including the ideas of other students and those presented in readings or other course materials, and offer evidence for alternative points of view.
Seek concrete, real-life situations to help you understand the theory and principles studied.
Suggest new websites, readings, or subjects for discussion.
4. Frequent and Prompt Feedback
You consider and use feedback and ask for help.
Read and consider the feedback you receive on your work, and ask questions where it is not clear.
Request feedback and constructive criticism.
Read the course syllabus, project descriptions, and other materials carefully and make sure you are aware of deadlines, requirements, and criteria for success.
Let your instructor know and ask for advice if you are struggling with the materials or having problems managing your time.
Use assignment feedback and seek or ask for referrals to student success services where needed (e.g., Effective Writing Center, tutoring services).
5. Time on Task
You manage your time and focus on your learning goals.
Manage your time well, leave enough time for assignments, and do not overload yourself.
Take into account the demands of work, family, and coursework in your planning.
Deliberately practice what you have learned in class.
Use schedules to stay on target.
Set aside study time with specific goals.
Break your tasks into manageable chunks so that you can keep progressing.
Prepare in advance for class discussions and presentations.
Know the class syllabus, including deadlines, policies on submission and late work, and the consequences of non-attendance and non-participation.
Set challenging goals for your own learning.
6. High Expectations
You accept your responsibilities as a learner and strive to meet high standards.
Review and understand the criteria for grading in the course and the relationship of grades to course outcomes.
Understand that grades are based on your performance in relation to course goals, not just time spent on the project.
Understand and conform to UMUC policies on academic integrity.
Seek concrete suggestions for improving your performance.
Accept your role as a partner in learning, work hard in class and set challenging goals for your own learning.
Look for examples of excellent performance and work that exceeds expectations.
Ask for help and advice to reach higher levels of performance.
7. Respect for Diversity
You respect diversity of culture, ethnicity, academic backgrounds, and individual needs as well as learning styles.
Speak up when you do not understand.
Recognize that your fellow students come from a broad range of academic, cultural and vocational backgrounds.
Relate readings and activities to your background and experience and ask for clarification of references you do not recognize.
Attempt to apply your discussion and examples to a variety of contexts and situations including women, minorities, and globally and culturally diverse populations.
Respect your fellow students, follow UMUC's code of conduct and engage in civil discussion even on the most sensitive topics.

It was Where, oh where, did the Joel Data go? For people with less than 10k rep: | |||||||||||||||||
First? Dunno. The fourth was "When setting a form's opacity should I use a decimal or double?": | |||||||||||||||||
The first question that wasn't deleted was this one: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4/ Update Questions and Responses in Stack Overflow all share the same ID Generator (they are likely in the same table?), and that explains why QuestionIDs aren't incremental at all. | |||||||||||||||||
The first real question from a non-test account is: Why doesn't the percentage width child in absolutely positioned parent work in IE 7? | |||

Take Action for the Climate This Weekend!
With nearly 200 countries discussing the future of the planet at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen this week and next, NOW is the time to show your support with thousands of others.
This weekend people around the world are taking action on climate change. The folks at 350.org, Avaaz, and tcktcktck are holding candlelight vigils, creating signing walls and ringing church bells. Find your local action here, and be part of the global movement to solve climate change: http://www.350.org/map. If there's no action near you, it's not too late to sign up and host one!
This global weekend of action unfolds during the very middle of the Copenhagen climate negotiations, and 350.org will use your images, videos, and stories to show world leaders that people around the world from all backgrounds are ready for a real climate deal. The impacts of climate change are mounting every day, but we still have time to put ourselves on the path to a better world. We need to build the world's largest mandate for action. Are you ready?
The UN Copenhagen Conference to negotiate a new global environment treaty began today. And my mind wanders north and east across the entirety of the Atlantic Ocean. I imagine these political types gathering, making great statements and pronouncing real hope. However, as CNN reported this weekend, the gathering is unlikely to yield a new world pact.
While every person in attendance at Copenhagen will surely admit the severe nature of the environmental crisis, who will be empowered to act? Politically speaking, economic prosperity and "defense" still outweigh eco-initiatives in most every country. Individually, we must continue to put pressure on our governments to cause movement.
The largest and most important climate change conference in history opened this morning in Copenhagen, Denmark. Representatives from 192 countries -- governmental, inter-governmental, and non-governmental organizations -- and thousands of journalists arrived by bicycle, train, bio-fueled limo, and plane to witness the 15th Annual Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
We will blog consistently over the 11 days of the conference and keep you apprised of progress and live coverage from some of our colleagues and partners via Twitter and the Seal the Deal in Copenhagen channel on Live Earth Video.
Coal Country reveals the truth about modern coal mining. The story is told by the people directly involved, both working miners and activists who are battling the coal companies in Appalachia.
This August, nearly 10,000 people gathered on the beach in Belgium to dance in a show of solidarity for climate action. Oostende Beach was filled with members of the Belgian Climate Coalition and Friends of the Earth to participate in a choreographed, Bollywood-style dance filmed by producer Nic Balthazar for the second Big Ask.
We're thrilled to announce that Atlanta has been added to the list of cities hosting the Dow Live Earth Run for Water!
Atlanta's Dow Live Earth Run for Water event will take place in downtown Atlanta with the start/finish at the Water Village area located at Pemberton Place, adjacent to the World of Coca-Cola and the Georgia Aquarium. The 6k course will take participants through nearby neighborhoods.
We are proud to begin highlighting the wonderful Run for Water events being planned around the world for April 18, 2010. The 2010 Run for Water Race in Santo Domingo will be a high-level event, helping the Dominican community to acknowledge the importance of prevention regarding the world water situation and reaching the top of mind of the public by helping the fund raising to support water projects. They are expecting over 1,000 participants for the event so far!
This event will include a 6K Race/Walk at an ocean view location, located in Santo Domingo City, the Capital of the Dominican Republic, as well as a post run concert with a local artist.
If you're in Southern California area, then join stylish EcoStiletto.com at Environment Furniture, located at 8126 Beverly Blvd for the Green Blogger Convention today – November 6th! More than an opportunity to discuss the past, present and future of green blogging, there will also be some wonderful green products to sample.
On Saturday, people in 181 countries came together for the most widespread day of environmental action in the planet's history. At over 5,200 events around the world, people gathered to call for strong action and bold leadership on the climate crisis.

Your job is living life to the fullest. Ours is helping you do just that. The primary job description of our personal assistants? Provide what you need when you need it. We also realize that anyone's need for help varies day to day. From simple reminders to an extra pair of hands or a shoulder to lean on, just let us know.
In a quilt, colorful squares of fabric weave into a spectacle of texture and pattern, each as unique and colorful as the caring hands that made them.
Like a quilt, no two homes look exactly the same. Home evokes feelings of comfort... family...familiarity. Walk into our home. It may not be your home, but it will feel just as inviting.
When the demands of living in your home require more than you're willing and able to give on your own, you'll find a welcome home with us. As well as all the help you need. But you may not notice it right away, because that's part of our charm.
We believe in exercising just the right touch. One more felt than seen. Come see for yourself. You'll be surprised at how comfortable you feel.
Who's there to help?
Behind the scenes, a full-time licensed nurse provides oversight. Plus doubles as a health services coordinator concerning every resident's planning and care needs. The nurse makes sure that each person receives the right level of support with minimal intrusion -- both from our staff and from outside resources like home health or rehabilitation. Residents can receive assistance around the clock.
This low-key, yet coordinated, approach to health care lets you maintain your chosen level of independence for as long as possible.
What about dining?
Of all meals, breakfast most reflects your lifestyle. We serve an informal, stroll-in breakfast, with meals cooked to order daily.
Lunch and supper are served restaurant-style. Our menus reflect your preferences and favorite recipes. We accommodate special menu requests and prescribed dietary requirements.* Our dining rooms contain intimate tables of four or more set with china service and table linens. Even a private dining room when you'd like to host a dinner or a family gathering.
Who keeps house?
Keeping house may not be exciting, but we do come through daily to tidy things up. And we have a regular schedule of routine deep cleaning in each room. We try to live up to your own high standards, including the laundry. We know how folks are about their clothes, and we'll treat your wardrobe with extra care.
What am I going to do every day?
How you fill your day is up to you. We realize you've seen enough to make your own choices.
The comfort of a good book, downloading pictures of the grandkids, walking your dog through the garden (yes, pets are just as welcome as you are). You name it; you can do it.
Some folks love to join right in. We strike a balance between planned programs (movies, bridge tournaments, live entertainment) and spontaneous events (current event discussions, afternoon tea on the porch, a power walk around the grounds). We encourage togetherness, but never force it. You can still actively participate in your own community. Even host functions here with us.
What should I do next?
Helping individuals and families find a warm welcome is vital. We realize the importance of security and peace of mind about the decision - for all concerned. Sit down with us to discuss your options.
Let us help enhance your independence and your ability to meet life head-on by giving you just the right support at the right time. And that should make anyone feel right at home.
At Americare you do the living.
Let us do the assisting.

the first rule of Hate Club is Fuck You... ...yup, it's snowed here 7 times in the last 120 years
I accepted the Zimmerman verdict, however, in this case the police and DA have investigated this matter and made the determination the police officer should be charged with voluntary manslaughter, because according to their investigation which I presume included taking testimony from the other officers at the scene, the killing was not justified
My comment was that it apparently didn't warrant "coverage" on this site. Had the perps who killed th Trooper been black, there would ahve been 20 threads about it, you're a liar if you say otherwise.
If I were race baiting I would have made this thread, since I've known about this case since Sunday.
What's your point.. Three cops went to the call.. one fired... you condemm all cops.
He is arrested and will be charged and tried... you say the system will cover it up
Yes, he probably panicked.. guy probably had about a year.. Cops are recruited from the human race... some people arent cut out for it.....
What's your point?
Go smoke another bowl.
Different laws for different races.

Hi Mary, it's an amazingly fabric-frugal dress, eh?

Hi Schnui! What fun to fabric shop in China! I was pleasantly surprised at how little fabric this dress takes …approx 1.5m? I think my versions will be cool as long as the humidity is reasonable! I've also worn them with a thin black 3/4 sleeve cotton top, with tights and boots….they work well for layering…an excellent travel item!! Give it a shot!
Dec 3, 2012, 02.04 AMby schnui
Thanks Ann. I have just on 2 metres, so I have plenty and I would love it to be a good travel dress as well. It is so hot here in Brisbane today that all I can think about is cool summer dresses, definitely no layering but a good idea when we reach April (that seems like forever today!!)
Dec 3, 2012, 01.42 AMby schnui
Ann, I love both dresses you have posted and you have got me thinking about some knit fabric that I bought in China recently. I didn't buy enough and I can't get back there, so this lovely pattern which I have overlooked so many times will be perfect. This floral knit dress looks gorgeous on you and because you think it is cool to wear, you have convinced me it is worth a go. I have made other garments from the August 2011 issue, but can't really say this one struck me until I saw yours. I also enjoyed reading you blog, so count me as a follower. Thanks for the link to Burda Addicts which worked for me.

Trading Jeremy Hellickson
by Glenn DuPaulNovember 07, 2012
Coming into this offseason, the Tampa Bay Rays seemed most likely to move veteran starter James Shields. Yet according to Jon Heyman, a different pitcher, Jeremy Hellickson, has been the Rays' most sought-after starter during early trade talks.
In 402.1 career innings, Hellickson has posted an incredible career ERA of just 3.06. The 25-year-old right-hander is eligible for the league minimum salary next season and is under club control through the 2016 season.
Why would Tampa Bay ever trade him?
Well, we should all know by now that earned run average is not the best measure of actual pitcher performance. There are factors outside a pitcher's control that affect ERA, namely defense and random variation (batting average on balls in play, BABIP).
Here are where Hellickson's BABIPs in 2011 and 2012 ranked among other qualified starters:
- 2011: .223 (the lowest)
- 2012: .261 (t-6th lowest)
Hellickson's FIP in 2011 was 4.44 and that number rose in 2012, to 4.60.
During the past two seasons, Hellickson's park-adjusted ERA was between 20 and 24 percent lower than average, while his park-adjusted FIP sat 15 to 17 percent higher than the major league average.
In both seasons, Hellickson had a larger gap between his ERA and FIP than any other qualified starter in baseball: His ERA was 1.49 points lower in 2011 and 1.50 lower, in 2012.
Has Hellickson just been extremely lucky two seasons in a row or has he found the magical BABIP elixir?
I feel like this question has been beaten to death, with strong opinions and arguments on both sides, but I'd like to re-open the discussion with these rumors swirling around the pitcher.
I don't know if Hellickson has found a way to out-pitch his peripherals by somehow yielding weak contact, in turn resulting in a lower than average BABIP and lower ERA. All I can give you are the facts.
ERA estimators
Defensive independent pitching metrics (DIPS) have been shown to do a better job at estimating future ERA (in the short-medium term) than actual ERA.
DIPS measures are primarily based around the two true outcomes for pitchers, strikeouts and walks. As with FIP, there is a large discrepancy between Hellickson's ERA and DIPS measures, mainly because there is a large discrepancy between Hellickson's ERA and what his strikeouts/walks would indicate.
Hellickson's career strikeout-to-walk ratio is 1.97. In 2012, his K/BB was slightly higher (2.10) than that number, but it still ranked as the 16th-worst among 88 qualified starters. If you trust certain data, that doesn't bode well for Hellickson's future.
Should we trust DIPS or ERA to project Hellickson's ERA going forward?
Based on solely on his 2012 FIP, we'd expect Hellickson's 2013 ERA to be 4.60, a significant rise from last season. Using a version of FIP that is re-weighted to be more predictive, rather than descriptive, pFIP, we get a slightly more favorable ERA projection of 4.50.
A starter who throws 175+ innings (as Hellickson did last season) with a 3.10 ERA is substantially more valuable to a major league team than a starter who throws the same number of innings but has an earned run average of 4.50.
Last season, Hellickson's 3.10 ERA ranked as the 16th-best among pitchers who threw at least 120 innings, ahead of names like Cliff Lee, Stephen Strasburg and Madison Bumgarner.
Using pFIP as the projection tool for that same set of pitchers, Hellickson's projected 4.50 ERA would rank as the 102nd-best (out of 121 pitchers) for next season, behind Bruce Chen.
Tampa Bay's defense and ballpark
Strong team defense is supposed to have a negative effect on BABIP. A better defense usually results in a lower-than-average team BABIP. According to research done by Matt Swartz, defense has a 13 percent effect on BABIP.
In 2011 and 2012, Tampa was one of the best teams at converting balls in play into outs. The Rays' team defensive efficiency (DER) was the best (or tied for the best) in baseball in both seasons.
DER is essentially (1- BABIP); thus, maybe we should assume that Hellickson's abnormally low BABIPs are at least somewhat due to the fact that Tampa has been so good defensively over the last two seasons.
I would not say that assumption is set in stone though, as the correlation between an individual pitcher's BABIP and BABIP for the rest of the team isn't as high as one would expect. There's actually a chance that Hellickson has had close to the same negative effect on Tampa's team BABIP as the team's defense has had on his.
Tampa Bay has played home games in Tropicana Field since the team's inception in 1998.
We have ESPN Park Factors dating back to 2001. Tropicana has consistently suppressed both hits (importantly balls in play) and runs in almost every one of those seasons. Consider the scenario where Hellickson gets traded and moves away from the Trop: Maybe his BABIP, and more importantly ERA, will rise. The interesting question is by how much? Or even more importantly...
Should a team that plays in a hitter's park with a bad defense risk trading away quality talent for Hellickson's services?
Maybe the first step to answering that question would be to look at Hellickson's career home/road splits:
- Home: Career ERA/BABIP/FIP: 2.84 / .245 / 4.03
- Road: Career ERA/BABIP/FIP: 3.22 / .243 / 4.95
Are these splits reason to believe that Hellickson has magical BABIP-suppressing powers, or are we simply being confounded by sample size?
Sample size
I feel like I've typed this sentence a thousand times, but BABIP for pitchers is affected by random variation more than any other relevant pitching metric.
Derek Carty showed that it takes more than 3,700 balls in play before a pitcher's BABIP "stabilizes." Carty uses the word "stabilize" to describe the point at which the correlation between past BABIP and future reaches 0.5; thus, when projecting future BABIP for that pitcher we can use half of his past BABIP and regress the other half back toward the league average.
That's a lot of balls in play. It's eight seasons worth of balls in play for a starter. Year-to-year BABIP fluctuates all over the place.
Take for instance 1999, when Pedro Martinez's BABIP was .323> The next season it dropped almost 90 points, all the way to .236. Heck, Hellickson's BABIP was 38 points higher in 2012 than it was in 2011. Who knows if next season it will rise another ~40 points, or instead drop down below where it ended in 2012.
Thus far, Hellickson has induced only 1,190 balls in play. It's tough to come up with anything conclusive based on a sample size that is only one-third of the way toward revealing true talent level.
So far, I've only discussed ERA and defense-independent metrics, and which is a better indicator of Hellickson's future. But I'd like to look briefly at a different metric than FIP or ERA to describe Hellickson's performances over the past two seasons.
Baseball Prospectus publishes a statistic known as Fair Run Average (or FRA). FRA does a good job of describing for us how many runs a pitcher deserved to give up.
Hellickson's FRA in 2011 was 4.93, well below average and well over his actual runs allowed per nine innings (3.05). Again last season, Hellickson's FRA was bad, 4.54, versus the 3.46 that he actually allowed. These numbers would indicate that Hellickson hasn't been nearly as good as his runs allowed per nine innings would indicate.
In fact, Baseball Prospectus uses FRA for its pitching Wins Above Replacement Player (WARP) calculations.
Hellickson's career WARP is 0.8, which would indicate that despite compiling more than 400 career innings, Hellickson has been a replacement-level pitcher (or even worse if you consider playing time). Using pFIP, I found an RA/9 projection of 4.83 for Hellickson next season, which jibes much better with his career FRA (4.67) than it does with his career RA/9 (3.27).
Is Hellickson a replacement-level pitcher who is due for serious regression, or is he a top-20 pitcher who can be had for pennies on the dollar compared to free agents like Zack Greinke?
I honestly don't have an answer. But if a team decides it wants to get into deep trade talks with the Rays about Hellickson's services, it should be aware of the facts that I've laid out.
Hellickson's been a fascinatingly successful pitcher, and could continue to be, but his future is still uncertain.
