Jerry Braam, the former Pequot Lakes police chief who was fired Sept. 28, has been named a finalist for police chief in Lewiston in southeast Minnesota.
The Winona Daily News on Tuesday reported Braam was selected as one of five finalists for the chief's position in the city of 1,484 people about 15 miles west of Winona.
It wasn't clear when the Lewiston Police Chief finalists were named. The Winona Daily News reported the city released the names a week after that newspaper made a request for them.
When reached by phone Wednesday, Braam said he learned about opening in Lewiston from a friend and applied for the position in early- or mid-September. Braam was placed on paid administrative leave on Aug. 16.
Braam said Wednesday he wasn't aware he had been named a finalist.
In his statement following his termination as police chief by the Pequot Lakes City Council, he said didn't know what his employment plans would be or if his termination had ended his career in law enforcement.
"It's pretty early in the decision process," Braam said, "but if something comes up that interests me, I'll apply. I always encouraged that with my officers, too, to keep an eye open for opportunities."
The Pequot Lakes City Council met in a closed session on Sept. 28 for the purpose to engage in preliminary consideration of allegations or charges of misconduct of a city employee.
When the council came back into open session about a half-hour after the closed session started, it voted 4-1 to terminate Braam, with council member Tom Ryan opposed. No reason has been given by the city for Braam's firing, and at the time Adams said because Braam was an at-will employee and not under contract, the city wasn't required to release information regarding the complaint against Braam or why the council terminated him.
The Dispatch has argued that there is no at-will exemption in Minnesota state statutes, and as a public employee who was placed on paid administrative leave because of a complaint and then fired, the nature of the complaint and the council's reasons for firing Braam should be made public.
Braam was hired as Pequot Lakes police chief in 2005. Before that he was assistant police chief for the Lower Sioux Community in Morton and worked for the State Patrol.
Officer Kate Petersen was appointed acting police chief while Braam was on leave.

A smartphone security firm claims to have found 26 legitimate Android apps that had been laced with malware.
The once-legitimate applications were modified to include what researchers from security firm Lookout called a "stripped down version" of DreamDroid, which it dubbed DreamDroid Light.
The malware is activated by an incoming call, according to Lookout's spokesperson, Tim Wyatt, which meant that users would not have to launch the application to trigger its behaviour.
Lookout has estimated the applications have been installed on 30,000 to 120,000 devices.
Like its predecessor, the tainted application sends identifiers (IMEI/IMSI) to the malware's distributors, however DreamDroid Light would require user-interaction to steer its way through an update.
Google has removed the program while it investigates the claim, according to Forbes security blogger, Andy Greenberg.
Lookout discovered the malware after a developer had alerted it to a modified version of one of his apps, which was being distributed on Google's Android Market.
"Our security team confirmed that there was malicious code grafted into these apps and identified markers associating this code with previously analysed DreamDroid samples," wrote Wyatt.
A list of the affected apps, which ranged from "hot girls" to systems monitoring tools, can be found on Lookout's website.
One of the apps, Hot Girls 1, had the capacity to create a "mobile botnet", according to F-Secure chief researcher, Mikko Hypponen.
In that instance, receiving a text message will activate malicious components of the app.
"The added code will connect to a server and send details about the infected handset to the malware authors. So we're talking about a mobile botnet," he said.

Proposed Federal Rule on Health Benefit Packages Fails to Address Critical Oral Health Issues, American Dental Association Tells HHS
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A proposed federal rule affecting implementation of the Affordable Care Act's provisions establishing health benefit plans within the insurance exchanges does not address a number of critical oral health issues, said the American Dental Association.
The rule, "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; Standards Related to Essential Health Benefits, Actuarial Value, and Accreditation," sets forth the Department of Health and Human Services' guidelines for the states as they move forward in implementing their health insurance exchanges and developing the benefit plans those exchanges will offer to individuals and small businesses.
In official comments filed this week with HHS, the ADA identified four main goals that it believes the agency should stress with state officials:
- The federal and state officials involved in establishing exchanges must ensure that consumers know the full value of what they will be paying for.
- Stand-alone dental plans and medical plans with dental benefits must be able to compete on an equal footing both inside and outside the exchanges to ensure consumers have an wide selection of dental plans.
- The pediatric dental essential health benefit should be a required purchase for all families with children who buy their coverage in the individual or small group market.
- Children up to age 21 should be covered by a dental benefit and there should be adult dental coverage for emergencies as part of state essential health benefit packages.
About the American Dental Association
The not-for-profit ADA is the nation's largest dental association, representing more than 156,000 dentist members. The premier source of oral health information, the ADA has advocated for the public's health and promoted the art and science of dentistry since 1859. The ADA's state-of-the-art research facilities develop and test dental products and materials that have advanced the practice of dentistry and made the patient experience more positive. The ADA Seal of Acceptance long has been a valuable and respected guide to consumer dental care products. The monthly Journal of the American Dental Association (JADA) is the ADA's flagship publication and the best-read scientific journal in dentistry.

Looking around the Washington media this morning, there are few who
think that New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's endorsement of President
Obama is going to make any difference on Tuesday, particularly in the
swing states.
The Washington Post's The Fix quotes a witty tweet from Alec MacGillis of the New Republic: "Obama gets The Economist AND Mike Bloomberg in the same day? How many Electoral College votes does the Acela quiet car carry?"
And that has to be a problem for any thinking voter. What kind of president will Romney be? We can make a judgment about Obama because he is the incumbent. But people are still wondering whether President Romney would be the "severely conservative" one, or the newly minted centrist of the presidential debates. They also must wonder whether he — like the moderate Republicans in the House — would be held hostage by the Tea Party radicals if elected.
This leads to Bloomberg's other central point — bipartisanship. The mayor believes that Obama stands a better chance of reaching across the aisle. We have just seen a demonstration of that by Chris Christie, the Republican New Jersey governor, and Obama in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. And that's what Americans like; they say so in poll after poll. They are fed up with the gridlock in Washington and want it to change.
The voters have a chance to do that next Tuesday. It's not just about picking a presidential candidate with a certain vision for America. Americans can decide on the future of the Tea Party, which has done so much to damage the fabric of democracy through its acolytes' obstructionism in Congress. "Throw the bums out" has never made so much sense.
Bloomberg endorses Obama, George Will trash-talks Obama, Joe Biden blasts Big Lie Romney ad in Ohio

Groundhog Day prediction: Punxsutawney Phil says to expect an early spring
Groundhog co-handler John Griffiths holds Punxsutawney Phil after Phil did not see his shadow and predicting an early spring during the 127th Groundhog Day Celebration at Gobbler's Knob on February 2, 2013 in Punxsutawney, Penn.

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. - It's Groundhog Day and Punxsutawney Phil has made his prediction. He says expect an early spring.
With thousands watching on Gobbler's Knob in west-central Pennsylvania, the furry rodent emerged from his lair Saturday but didn't see his shadow.
Legend has it that if the groundhog sees his shadow on Feb. 2, winter will last six more weeks. But if he doesn't see his shadow, spring will come early. At least that's what the Inner Circle says -- the group that dons top hats and tuxedos on Groundhog Day each year to oversee the ceremony.
Inner Circle president Bill Deeley says that after "consulting" with Phil, he makes the call in deciphering what the world's most famous groundhog has to say about the weather.

The Things That Haven't Been Done BeforeThe Things That Haven't Been Done Before is about being the initiator for new ideas, for trying to do things that others may not believe are possible - being a leader rather than a follower. It is said that if you hold a stick in front of the foremost sheep in a flock that files down a trail in the mountains, he will jump it--and that every sheep thereafter will jump when he reaches that percise spot, even if the stick is removed and they can't see it! Many people are unthinking imitators, blind to the facts and opportunities that are around them. Often, someone has to do something first before others realize they can do it too.

A former student and classmate at East Central University, where Lane was studying, described him as "a charming guy, genuinely good person, with great character and had a love for life."
"As cliched as it sounds, Chris was the kind of guy you want your sons to grow up to be and that you want your daughters to marry. It just breaks my heart knowing how much more he could have brought to this world as a husband, father, son, brother and friend," Sam Malchar said.

Kristen Bell's "Would You Rather" Illustrated, With Sloths
Sloths + watercolor + Kristen Bell = WIN!

The divisions' goal is to identify and effectively treat infections that arise from exposure to infectious diseases, or that follow organ transplantation and other surgical procedures. They offer the following specialized services:

Pasta Coi BroccoliIngredients
Instructions(4 Servings). Chop the broccoli into pieces (cubes of 1 and 1/2") and put them into a wide pan filled with water and salt (not too much salt, obviously). As the water boils put the pasta into the pan with a tbl spoon of oil to prevent pasta from glueing together. Stir about 1 minute, then let the water boil. Orecchiette require about 15 minutes. In the meantime melt the 6 (or even more!) anchovies into a shallow pot before putting it into the pan) and the peppers. As the 15 minutes have passed, taste the pasta: if it is cooked, remove the water from the wide pan, and put the dried pasta and broccoli into the swallow pan, still lightly, lightly, lightly and happily frying. Stir for about 1 minute and serve hot. Your Recently Viewed RecipesLove these recipes? Get MORE delivered to your Inbox – FREE Click Here! |

Why give to Simple Acts Ministry?
You will be part of directly changing many lives this year.
In the next 12 months, we will …
- Graduate 10 men from SAM's Place
- Involve 50 core members in our monthly meetings and small groups
- Educate, encourage, and mentor 50 men in Montford's faith-based dorm
- Construct a new Sam's Place Ministry Annex to provide new class room space, offices, and living quarters for our Resident Manager
- Provide monthly large group meetings and several weekly faith-based educational classes.
You will help expand and support our Christian hospitality house and recovery-and-reentry program.
In 2010, we purchased three duplexes to become the location for SAM's Place. With the help of volunteers, we renovated and expanded the complex to include six two-bedroom units, a laundry room, and a group meeting area. A live-in resident manager lives on-site to oversee the program. Finances are needed to provide for monthly costs, run weekly classes and groups, maintain the complex, and build a new building to provide class rooms, office and counseling space, a recreations room, library/prayer room, and living quarters for our resident manager. We need support for food, transportation, clothing, and other items to help the men transition to the free world.
You will help a growing community of ex-offenders stay out of trouble and out of prison.
Studies show there are two things that provide the greatest reduction in arrest and return rates among ex-offenders: Involvement in …
- an ongoing recovery program.
- a healthy support community.
We link ex-offenders to recovery groups, job resources and social services. In addition, we use both small and large groups, as well as one-on-one mentoring to develop a strong, accountable community in the free world.
You will provide curriculum and materials for the men of Montford's faith-based dorm and beyond.
God has opened an incredible door for us to make Christian disciples in our local prisons. We teach classes and workshops for 50 men, three nights a week at the Montford Unit. We also sponsor faith based classes at the Smith Unit in Lamesa. Your funds will provide enough books, workbooks etc. for each man to grow in their knowledge, character and understanding of God for one year.
You will empower the work and ministry of our daily operations.
Every organization must have funds in order to run. Our needs are simple. We have one full time employee and are currently searching for a building to house our various ministries in. We keep our operational costs low and spend carefully. Your financial help keeps us staffed and resourced to do the work and accomplish our mission.

It looks like the plan to blindside Janelle is working nicely. Although nearly everyone in the Big Brother house knows Janelle is the target this week, Janelle remains in the dark about the plan.
Janelle's demise was carefully planned by Boogie, who was determined to save his closest ally Frank from eviction. After HOH Danielle won the Power of Veto, Boogie pitched a plan to save Frank by using the POV on Wil to put Janelle on the chopping block. He also proposed an alliance between himself, Frank, Danielle, Dan, Britney and Shane. They dubbed themselves the 'Silent 6' since they planned to keep the deal a secret. Danielle, Dan, Britney and Shane also made a side deal with Ian and he agreed to cast his vote against Janelle.
An alliance called 'T*ts' has been formed between Ashley, Jenn and Wil. They also plan to evict Janelle. Their three votes, along with the votes of Ian, Shane, Britney, Dan and Boogie will send Janelle packing tonight. Only Joe, who knows nothing about the plan to evict Janelle, is expected to vote to evict Frank.

Escapes prison sentence as jails are full
Son of Etsha 6 Chief Joseph Seemeko was this week arraigned before Maun Customary Court facing a single count of theft.
Kabelo Seemeko, 23 an employee of Sefalana Cash and Carry wholesalers recently stole six bottles of perfumes worth P89.70. He did not waste any time as he pleaded guilty and agreed to whatever was said in court.
He however asked the court to be lenient with him saying he has a four- year old child to look after. He also asked this reporter not to publish the story as it was going to shame him and his family in Etsha.
Kabelo is said to have stolen the perfumes towards knocking off time and was arrested by alert shop security personnel.
He was given five strokes on bare buttocks as his sentence.
Still in the same court one Bongani Mkhwanazi of Boseja ward was also given five strokes for stealing a 750ml bottle of Omega Espado Tequila at the same wholesale.
The 23- year old told the court that he did not deliberately steal the alcohol but failed to say what lead him to commit the crime.
Court President Charles Letsholathebe told the two accused persons that he wanted to send them to prison but was recently told that the two prisons in Maun are full.
"You are lucky, if it was not that the prisons are full, I could be sending you there now," he said.

2007 comparison
Guest post by Macro Story;
As a reminder from the 2007 comparison the move from Point F to the low in the highlighted red box was 15.3%. So far the 2011 move has been 14.5%. Something to consider as history does often repeat itself in emotional markets.
This market still appears very weak with internals about as weak as I have ever seen. At the same time markets tend to turn around when everyone is screaming sell. As a friendly reminder, don't be greedy and don't be a hero. Remember the FOMC meeting is tomorrow.
Markets reversing big in Europe
Manic Markets. After the ES futures traded at 1075, we are now at 1145. Europe has turned around in a huge reversal. Markets surging on no liquidity. The famous August trend still intact, but could be breached. This time around, Europe is showing the way. Greed and fear of missing out on all manic moves. What if, just a what if Ben takes the market to 1200+ later today? Stoxx intraday below.

A slightly increased chance of cancer would have been likely, if those miners had lived long enough to develop cancer, which in general they would not have. A single bit of damage to DNA won't give you cancer, it's always cumulative, and even then relies on chance to actually knock something out that actually regulates cell-growth to even start causing problems. As you said, toxic components in make-up and such would probably have posed a greater danger in many cases, especially since the elite would have tended to live longer, allowing for greater cumulative doses. 3/20/11 11:44am

Dear Washington Area Cycling Supporters:
I am writing to you to share the exciting news that DDOT Director Gabe Klein has signed a Complete Streets Policy ensuring that both bicyclist and pedestrian level-of-service will be considered in every significant roadway project!
This is a huge step forward for the District, and comes as a direct result of WABA's campaign initiated several weeks ago. Thank you to the over 350 DC WABA members and supporters who signed our petition. Your voice was heard, and DDOT now has a policy mandating that the needs of cyclists, pedestrians, and all roadway users be balanced in their projects.
We are grateful for your support, and for the efforts of the many others who have been working for years to encourage Complete Streets, including the Complete Streets Coalition, the League of American Bicyclists, and countless advocates.
This policy demonstrates one way that WABA's efforts to coordinate and magnify the voices of cyclists in the District and region can bring results. If you are not a member, please consider adding to our ability to improve the region by joining now. And if you are already a member, please consider an additional gift to support further advocacy efforts and campaigns throughout the region.
And one more thing....
In the past weeks we have generated numerous emails, calls, and signatures directed to DDOT Director Klein. Now, with this policy, he has demonstrated his responsiveness and his commitment to safety and livability. Let's take a moment to say thank you, and to express to Director Klein, Mayor Fenty, and Council Chairman Vincent Gray our appreciation for Director Klein's efforts, as well as our optimism at the future of safe, livable, complete streets in the District.

Re: Puig and his slide into home
I read where Dusty said he didn't see it because he was headed into the dugout when the ball was hit. I didn't see it either because I turned off the feed when he hit the HR. I don't think Dusty will tell any of the pitchers to retaliate. Maybe they will on their own. Also, I was listening to the Braves game a couple nights ago with Don Sutton and Jim Powell. They discussed it and said that they didn't like the slide. Personally, I'm old school and don't like that kind of stuff. Agree wholeheartedly with Scully.

During MAMA press conference, Leeteuk was asked what is needed for Hallyu Wave to continue. He said, "with the start of Hallyu wave, we are performing in Europe and Japan. When I look at the price of a concert ticket, I'm worried that it might have an adverse effect. If concerts are produced with great systems, it's not a problem. However, if many people only chase after profits, number of Kpop fans will dwindle. I hope people focus on promoting songs and performances instead." Wise words from Leeteuk.

Travon Patterson's 43-yard punt return in the first quarter was the longest CU punt return since Josh Smith had a 51-yarder vs. Eastern Washington on Sept. 6, 2008 ... CU has now outscored the opponent 60-28 in the third quarter (14-7 today) ... P Zach Grossnickle had his first collegiate punt for 50 or more yards (51-yarder in fourth quarter) ... Tech rushed for 144 yards after CU had held it under 100 the last four games in the series (91, 91, 31, 39) ... Ten different Buffs had a hand in earning the team's 20 first downs ... QB Tyler Hansen piloted the offense for 26 plays (for 80 yards) prior to leaving the game with a rib injury in the second quarter; QB Cody Hawkins directed 59 plays for 284 yards ... Tech averaged 6.9 yards on first down, well below the 10-plus both Georgia and Baylor had averaged in CU's last two home games; three plays accounted for 107 of its 233 first down yards ... The Buffs are 0-3 in Big 12 Conference play for the first time in the 15 year history of the league, and dropped their first three league games since opening 0-4 in the Big Eight in 1983 ... TTU scored one touchdown rushing, just the fourth allowed on the ground this season; the Buffs are among the national leaders in fewest rushing TDs allowed (tied for fifth coming into today) ... The Buffs final game against Big 12 South teams is next Saturday at Oklahoma; as of now, CU is an even 22-22 in regular season play against the South, plus another 1-3 in league championship games.
BALL HOGS Colorado came in ranked fourth in the nation in time of possession (33:59), and promptly came out and held the ball for 20:03 in the first half (10:21 in the first quarter). The Buffs have held the time advantage in all seven games this season, though Tech made it closer today than in any of the seven, as TTU had it for 19:26 in the second half.
TRIO MAKES FIRST STARTS Mainly due to injuries, three players started for the first time, all on defense: DE Nick Kasa, SS Terrel Smith and CB Jonathan Hawkins (at the nickel position). Smith is the second true freshman to start a game this year, joining Jered Bell, who started last week (vs. Baylor) at strong safety. OT Bryce Givens also made his first start of the season at right tackle.
TB RODNEY STEWART (20-34, 0 TD) He was held to a season-low 34 yards (previous low was 67 against CSU), but he did covert on two 3rd-&-1s and a 4th-&-1 to improve to 12-of-13 in those situations this fall (23-of-26 for his career). He is also 18-for-22 in third/fourth down rushing this season from all distances.
CB JALIL BROWN (1 INT) He made his third interception of the year, giving him six for his career; that ties him for 28th all-time at CU, the 43rd player to make six career picks.
QB CODY HAWKINS (43-22-0, 274, 2 TD) He became only the third player in CU history to pass for 6,000 yards in a career, finishing the day with 6,269; he joins Joel Klatt (7,375) and Kordell Stewart (6,481) as the three who have done it. He added to his all-time CU mark of TD passes, as he now has 48, and also became the third player in Buff history to eclipse 6,000 yards in total offense (6,124).
WR SCOTTY McKNIGHT (5-50, 0 TD) He extended his NCAA-active best regular season streak to 43 games with at least one reception (every game of his career, 44 including postseason). He is inching closer to 200 career receptions (196), adding to his all-time CU mark with every catch, and he has 2,238 career receiving yards, 209 shy of third place (Charles E. Johnson, 2,447).
WR PAUL RICHARDSON (4-79, 2 TD) He became the first true freshman in CU history to have two touchdown receptions in the same game, and just the third frosh (true/redshirt) to do it, joining WR Michael Westbrook (1991 vs. Missouri) and Brody Heffner (1996 vs. Iowa State ... before he tacked on Liddiard to his last name). The four catches and 79 yards are career highs for Richardson. Scotty McKnight was the last player to have two TD catches in a game (vs. Nebraska in Boulder last year and vs. Iowa State at Folsom in 2008).
TODAY'S PUNCH vs. PUNCH WINNER: COLORADO. Texas Tech came in converting just under 45 percent on third down, but the Buffs held the Red Raiders to 5-of-15 (33%, just a shade above CU's average allowed of 32.4). The Buffs also had two quarterback sacks and an interception on third down plays.
COLORADO INJURIES QB Tyler Hansen (left rib), ILB Jon Major (sprained knee), OT Bryce Givens (ankle). Status on all to be better known Sunday and/or Monday.

Cardinal Virtue Back From Stud For More Racing
Regally-bred stakes-winning & Gr1-placed 6YO sprinter Cardinal Virtue (Elusive Quality-Valourina, by Snippets) "is now back in training & managed to impress at Tuesday's Rosehill trials, despite having spent last spring covering his 1st book of mares" reported racenet.com.au. Cardinal Virtue ran 3rd in the Gr1 Galaxy (1100m) at his last race start at Royal Randwick in Sydney in April 2011, before beginning a stud career at Waterford Stud in Western Australia (where he served 22 mares). However he has returned to Rosehill trainer David Payne's stable for another sprinting preparation, which began with a 2nd to Beaded in a 900-metre trial hit-out. Managing part-owner & Australian Bloodstock co-founder Luke Murrell said Cardinal Virtue had "thrived in his breeding environment, which prompted connections to give him another crack at winning a Gr1 race". Murrell commented: "He retired really sound, but he was just doing too well in the west to leave him there; so we decided to bring him back over for another preparation. He has come on in leaps & bounds in the last few weeks & he looks terrific. We'll probably take him down to Melbourne for the sprint handicaps like the Gr1 Oakleigh Plate & Gr1 Newmarket Handicap, where he will still get a relatively light weight." Cardinal Virtue was the the only son of former shuttler Elusive Quality (sire of multiple Gr1-winner Sepoy) at stud in Australia last season; Elusive Quality is also the sire of Gr1-winning stallions Smarty Jones, Raven's Pass & Elusive City. And Cardinal Virtue's dual stakes-winning dam Valourina (sold for $1.6 million as part of the Tyreel Stud reduction at the 2008 Inglis Broodmare Sale) has produced Gr2-winning & dual Gr1-placed Timbourina, Gr2-winning & 4-times Gr1-placed Media, plus stakes-placed Rubric & Gallantree. On the track himself, Cardinal Virtue (a $260,000 yearling at the 2007 Inglis Easter Sale in Sydney) boasts 4 wins (including 2009's Listed Redelva Stakes over 1000m at Cheltenham Park) & 12 placings (including 2011's Gr1 The Galaxy over 1100m at Randwick, Gr3 Sebring Stakes over 1100m at Rosehill, Gr3 Southern Cross Stakes over 1200m at Randwick, Listed Kensington Stakes over 1000m at Flemington & Listed Carrington Stakes over 1100m at Randwick, plus 2010's Gr2 Premiere Stakes over 1200m at Rosehill & Listed City Tattersalls Lightning Handicap over 1100m at Randwick, as well as 2008's Gr3 McNeil Stakes over 1200m at Caulfield) from 27 starts for $329,355 earnings.

miri in Miami: days 1 & 2
Whew. Can I just say I'm not sure I'm cut out for this stuff? I'm sunburned (despite having gone through 2 tubes of sunscreen – I need to talk to Murray about what he uses) and tired of being hot and sweaty. Oh. Does it sound like I'm complaining? Well, I am, but I'm still having fun. Some sample pictures first so that you can see them quickly and then skip all my ramblings below. I don't have good photo editing software on my laptop, so these aren't cleaned up. The Rafa ones will take serious cleaning because I had to shoot them at 3200ISO and they are grainy as hell. Sorry! Eventually, oodles and oodles more will be posted on flickr.
Day One
I considered day one to be orientation day. I only had a partial day and I'd never been to a tennis tournament before, so I really didn't know what to expect. I get there and spend forever getting my tickets from will-call. (My tickets, not someone else's, mind you.) I then see that Murray's down a set on the stadium court – which I don't have tickets too. Wait, maybe I do want that other fellow's tickets.
I ended up watching the last set or so of the Ferrer/Isner match despite my well-documented fear of the freaky tall guys. It was a good match even if I felt I was jinxing Ferrer for awhile. After the match he did the traditional "lob balls into the crowd" thing and one went flying way up above me. No one could quite seem to catch it, however. They played hot potato with it and it ended up bouncing off my back and under the bleachers. This was ball incident #1.
Next on the court was Wawrinka/Seppi so I decided to stick around for that. After half the set, I realized it had been over 10 hours since I had breakfast, so I thought I should go get some lunch. Then a lot more wandering – watched Nestor/Zimonjic practice for a bit. Nestor didn't seem to be a happy camper.
Next up, I got into the Gonzalez/Kunitsyn match. I somehow ended up surrounded by drunken Chileans who were sharing pictures of their kids with each other via cell phone. It was cracking me up. I knew Gonzalez has a lethal forehand and have seen it many times on TV, but I was totally unprepared when I saw it in person the first time. I think I wet myself a little. It was an okay match, not too exciting, but still fun.
And then…Rafa time! Sadly, Rafa time was at night and the lighting? Not to my liking. It should be a crime to make Rafa look green! He gave the mascots a lovely smile when he came out for the coin toss – most sweet. He was playing a Russian I'd never heard of (Gabashvili) and, while the match wasn't close, Gabashvili got off more than a few shots that made Rafa look pouty. Rafa got grumpy a few times and this let me finally figure out where his posse's box was since he kept looking at them. You know what that means, right? Marc!
I enjoyed the match but admit to being so busy trying to take photos that I didn't get a good feel for it. So what, that's what my DVR is for. I can watch that any time, I won't have a lot of times to combine 2 obsessions: photography and Rafa.
I loved how at the end of the match, when he shoots the balls up into the crowd, he watches the ball smiling the whole time until someone catches it and he sees it's caught. I've kind of noticed it before, but it was really apparent last night as he shot one ball VERY high and it took it forever to come down. He just stood there watching it with a big smile in his face like a kid with his favorite toy. Freaking adorable.
After the match, there wasn't much else going on tennis-wise that I was interested in. I walked around outside and saw Miguel Angel and Papa Nadal sitting near the locker room door at the stadium. So, I stayed and watched long enough to see some dazzling Miquel Angel smiles (and see him smoke a cigarette – boo!) before going back to my hotel.
Day two
There wasn't a lot in this half of the draw that interested me, so I decided today was practice court day. I started off with watching Murray practice. How can he spend so much time outside without a shirt on and still be almost as pale as I am? I must find out what kind of sunscreen he uses. At one point, he hit a ball into the net and yelled, "What was that shit!"
Next, I wanted to see the doubles doubles match between Nestor/Zimonjic and Ferrer/Alamagro. Handily, it was just a court away and was a very fun match (yay, doubles!) and Ferrer/Alamagro won in straights. It was Zimonjic's turn to be frustrated and he got a code violation for sending a ball WAY out of the court and onto a neighboring one during a match. Later in the same game, he slammed his racket down, but no further violations. (We could also hear a few loud "Fucks" come from Murray on the practice court – he practiced quite a long time.)
Then, I just kind of hung around the practice courts for hours waiting for a certain someone to show. He didn't, but I did get to see Tipsarevic and Troiki having a hit. Tipsy had bunched his shorts up so that it looked like he had on diapers. Later, he was delighted (and Troiki amused) that he could put a tennis ball in the leg of the shorts (ala the way women do in the skirts) for his second serve. They practiced for quite a while. Half watched Del Potro lumber around the court for a casual 20 minutes and then call it a day. Saw Wawrinka hit with Phau and then started getting bored of the practice courts.
Went and caught a bit of Simon/Schuettler because I couldn't get into the Safin/Monfils match, but that wasn't too interesting because Simon was rolling…so, back to the line for Safin/Monfils. I'm so glad I did. They were in the third set of a tight match. The stadium was packed and I had to stand in line quite a while to get in. Luckily, part of that time (at least two change-overs) I was on the stairs that were high enough to see the match. Oh, oh, Safin. It was yours, you let it go. They are both such drama queens and they were milking as much drama out of the match as they could.
I wanted to stay for the Djokovic match because I have a friend who really likes him and wanted some pictures. It was already past time for that to start, however, and we still had Tsonga and Kendrick to get through. I was tired, sunburned and dehydrated (despite the 5 liters of water and 2 sodas I'd drunk)…so I left. Sorry, Jer – no photos for you!
Tomorrow? Two Rafa matches in one day! One Spaniard after another on the grandstand court! Will I survive?

Does Rafa know about this web site?
Miri, already the photos look fantastic!!! Thank you sooo much… And I love your report from the site.
Don't worry, your sunburn will soon develop into a beautiful, mocha coloured tan… (-; -
rez, I'm sure you're aware that this is an unofficial blog.
miri, great day, great pictures! The one of Wawrinka midair is amazing. And watching Gonzo practice forehands was a big highlight of my trip to Cincy last year. Even on TV watching his FH is therapeutic. I'm glad you got to see that in person.
Your comment on Miguel Angel smoking amused me. Carlos Costa, ex-pro himself, smokes. So does Francisco Roig. Seems to be the thing to do in Spain, whether or not you're an athlete.
Thanks for the cussing alert re Murray. I love Murray, but wish he'd find an alternate form of self-expression.
Tipsy's shorts? No words. :P
Thanks Denizen, I wish he knew about this blog:) I really enjoy reading the the news posted here. Also, thanks miri for telling us about your experience there; It is really invaluable.
miri, I'm new here but I've been reading this for awhile. Thanks for all the news. This is like gold.
Thanks for keeping us updated Miri. Keep it coming.
I was watching a clip on youtube of one of Rafa's practices. He slammed his racquet down in frustration, never seen him do that before, he has looked grumpy of late.
Thanks for your report and the pics :D Wow and you get see Rafa again today, i' so jealous!!
Ps: Tipsarevic is *really* disturbing xD
I love being able to hear your escapades in Miami Miri! Thanks for keeping us posted, I am soooo jealous, wish I was there. Could you be any luckier catching Rafa twice on Monday!!! Great pics btw, I think you did much better with the horrible light than some of the pro shots. Sigh, isn't Rafa's new outfit just gorgeous. How does it look from up close? I really like the colours and how they match his skin tone so well *flutter* I'm glad he's got this new look after the last one in Miami and Rotterdam, did not like that blue at all! But then again, does Rafa ever look bad in anything he wears???? No.
sheisblessed, could you post a link to the practice video? I haven't been able to track it down. Thanks!
here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyLXxDeM8tA
yeah pretty unusual to see him hurt the racquet, but haha i couldn't stop laughing when it looked like he eased off just before he hit it. even when he's angry he still can't let it all out cos he's been taught not to take it out on the racquet. aaawww rafa….
About the alleged graininess of the photos, well, I think the famous a** looks just fine, thank you very much.
And Tipsy's shorts, well, there are no words. I don't mind Andy's language. It makes him more human, at least to me. -
Looking good, Miri!
Janko Tipsarevic… wow… he should just practice in speedos or go au naturale next time if he's getting that hot.

Got Bed Bugs? Bedbugger Forums » General Topics
(7 posts)-
i mentioned in my one other post that my friend is the one with bed bugs, but he sleeps at my place a lot, and i found the live few we saw together at his place- so I have become the paranoid one, where he's covered in bites and remains the bottle it all up, stoic one... which is probably a blessing.
here are my recent hallucinations and crazy compulsions:
(enjoy, with a light heart, especially if you're going through the same thing or worse)shortly after finishing the last of a chocolate cake (i tend to eat sweets when i'm upset) i did a double-take in regards to a crumb on the table next to my laptop, where i had been researching bed bugs ALL DAY. after thorough inspection of the crumb it was deemed to be, in fact, a crumb of chocolate cake.
...best part about this is that i KNOW what they look like, because my friend and i found live ones in his apt- but i still react to every last particle i see in my presence.i bought not one, but two kinds of magnifying glasses today, to better inspect bits of things and to assist my poor friend with his inspection. why two? i don't know.
upon feeling yet ANOTHER phantom bug crawling on my neck, i froze, tilting my head accordingly and carefully walked to a mirror- only to find my neck. my long hair being the culprit, which i secretly knew.
i have checked my bed at least forty times in the past few days, for signs of bugs, or bugs themselves. (this is sad, since my friend has them so far, not me, so i express deep sympathy to those who indeed find bugs in their beds, but my words are here only to try and make you laugh during a dark time) but in those forty times, i have made these weird efforts to sneak up on the hiding bugs by turning over the covers in a dramatic fashion- as if to silently say "AH-HA! Show yourself, Fiend!"...and i didn't even realize i was being so silly till i started to write this post. i'm sure i'll check my bed another five times before bedtime.
i now have extensive knowledge regarding every skin flake, pimple scab, and natural (bug molt colored) cat litter particle that ends up in my bed- and no matter how sure i am of their identity, i still poke them, prod them, try to smush them, etc....and i can only thank the gods that i now have my trusty magnifying glass(es). at least i'll stop giving myself headaches trying to see better than human eyes can see.
i've worried myself into having a few hives on separate occasions, when obsessing about bbugs. (i know they're hives cause they went away within minutes, and i've had hives before)
i curse the regrowth of hair on my legs cause the occasional prickly sensation drives me to lift my pants legs to catch unknowing bbugs.
i can't even have normal conversations with my poor friend half the time, cause i'm too busy staring at his shirt collar, or sleeves waiting to spot a bug.
we've incorporated into our romantic routine that he must get completely naked as soon as he gets through my front door. (granted the puts clothes in bag and shoes outside part is kind of a mood killer)
when i was buying 2 steamers, pet hair tape rollers, magnifying glasses and garbage bags at the pharmacy this evening, i was wondering if the girl at the register knew why.
finally- at the hardware store tonight (buying caulk for the aftermath, and various related goods) a couple walked past me, and the woman had a 3D spot on the back of her coat, which was the right size, rough shape, and color of a bbug!! i froze in horror!! my impulse was to walk right up to it and inspect, but being sane(still), i held back. my next thought was to follow them down the isle to get a closer look. i decided not to do that cause i knew there was no way to do that and get close enough to see without seeming like a nut. i resigned to staring at it as they walked away, to see if it moved at all, from it's original location. it didn't, but i'm never gonna be convinced.
SIGH. ya know- for you PCO's out there, if i were you, i'd buddy up with a counselor versed in bbugs, and offer counseling to bbug victims as part of a package deal. ha ha
you'd make a killing, and probably benefit yourselves as well as your clients, cause they'll be a little more relaxed when you're working with them.good night folks. i'm signing off.
Great stuff! It is sad that so many of us can relate! I look forward to the day when every piece of lint does not make me grab my magnifying glass.
A few months ago I wrote a section for my treatment manual on coping with the psychological aspects of an infestation I have also referred a few people to a good councillor I know in London after prolonged exposure.
Getting back to the humour though I think the oddest one I have had to deal with was a 350 mile drive to inspect and identify a fragment of a chocolate biscuit. Strangest thing is that another pest controller had confirmed it as a suspect bed bug a week or so earlier. I would like to say that the occupant was relieved but the next question was "are you 100% sure they do not live in the detached 20 feet away and travel across at night to bite me". I left soon after.
They can be a stress to have and even not to have which is why facts and evidence are your best weapons in this battle.

> i've worried myself into having a few hives on separate occasions, when obsessing about bbugs. (i know they're hives cause they went away within minutes, and i've had hives before)
Don't want to jinx myself, but pretty sure my bugs have been gone for more than a year. Nonetheless, here in Colorado, I continue to get these, what are they? Bug casings, shed skins? They all seem to have blood in them and are, like, seahorse shaped or with comet-like tails. I've never been able to identify them. They come in all sizes, from about 1-5 mm or fractions of an inch up until 1/8, maybe 1/4. Geez, what the freak are they??! 99% sure they're not BBs (no other symptoms and don't look like live BBs or casings I saw before). Anyway, this is relevant to the paranoia theme.
hi fightorflight,
If you share a picture with us maybe we can help identify what they are. If you cant take a picture send a few samples through to either an entomologist or myself and I will take pictures and share with everyone.
Hmph. I guess I will have to get off my lazy butt and do that. Maybe another analogy/simile won't help - look like commas, or double-tailed commas? Okay, I'll put it on my ToDo list and get back to you. If the digital camera doesn't do a good job, I guess I will send the little dead buggers.

Thanks for the smiles, Nightmare. That's why this forum is so great. We do mostly share the same psychosis! Lint, crumbs, staring at lint on others. Only we can really relate. I was just thinking today, that while others think hairy legs are gross, so do bed bugs. I was speculating that perhaps women get more bits cause we tend mostly to be less hairy. Someday I hope to look back at this and, no, when it's done done, I don't want to think about it anymore, but i wonder if that will ever be possible.
Yours in the trauma dome.

Excélsior has some polling that measures Obama's post-visit shine in Mexico. Seventy-eight percent of the respondents expressed a good or excellent opinion of him, 65 percent said that his stay in Mexico was different than previous official visits, 58 percent said that it shows a change in interest from the US toward Mexico, while 74 percent said it marks a new era in the relationship. The response was not quite so overwhelming when the questions did not focus on Obama but rather the US as a whole: 35 percent think the relationship between the two nations has improved, against 52 percent say it is the same as always. (This does represent an increase of 15 points for the latter position.) Only 31 percent expressed confidence in the US, compared to 31 who showed indifference, and 32 who said their feeling was one of distrust.
These polls are fun, but given that the results are all over the map and it is still a very fresh memory, I don't think we can draw any lasting conclusions yet.
