When the Battle of Waterloo was raging, UK investors were very nervous. The Rothchilds Bank began selling off bonds, immediately followed by investors who lost appreciable value. Unbeknownst to the public, the Bank's couriers had reported that Wellington won an overwhelming victory. The Bank proceeded to buy all bonds available at an enormous profit.
The moral is that all investors retained some minimal proceeds, the company received elegant short and long term profits, a conflict was resolved, and the populace was taxed to finance the results.

Best of SA 2012 Critic Pick
Food-industry heroes: Cameron Davies and Matthew Marshall of Cruising Kitchens
Published: April 25, 2012
Cruising Kitchens
14732 Bulverde, (210) 402-2829
Countless food shows featuring celebrity chefs have cast a bright light on the "back of the house," the kitchens that create the artful delicacies that drive restaurant success. In today's food-truck craze the kitchen has moved up front, becoming both mobile production unit and source of entertainment, where cooks deftly prepare dishes mere feet away from hungry diners. Building food trucks is an art in itself, and increasingly new operators across the country look to owner Cameron Davies and shop manager Matthew Marshall of Cruising Kitchens in north SA to provide them with the best. The shop is tucked behind Boardwalk on Bulverde; also owned by Davies, it was until recently the only food truck park in SA. It's since been joined by Southtown's Alamo Street Eat~Bar, but beginning May 1 both privately owned parks will face competition from City of SA locations such as HemisFair Park, one of four spots authorized by the City Council in mid-April to host a pilot food-truck program.
But regardless of which park you frequent, you'll likely run across a truck there created by Cruising Kitchens. Opened less than two years ago, the group now averages three to four rigs a month — about 50 builds a year. The care and quality they put into their work has attracted buyers from the West Coast to New York City and lit the interest of television producers in Los Angeles, who are now filming the pilot of a national reality series featuring Cruising Kitchens' group of fabricators. When the Current visited the shop recently, six trucks were in process, including a new pizza truck (a 19-foot-long monster), while another eight waited outdoors for a spot in line. Before going into the food-truck biz, Davies operated 210 Customs, specializing in high-end car builds. Though his elite clientele included professional athletes and others with money to burn, Davies prefers his new outfit. "These are more of a challenge, its not like doing custom cars with fancy paint jobs; you have to figure out power loads and other tech to put a commercial kitchen into a step van," he said.
Davies doesn't consider the new food truck parks competition for Bulverde, either, but instead opportunities for new chefs to get into the business … as well as likely new clients for Cruising Kitchens. But it isn't just what they're doing off Bulverde Road but how they're doing it that impresses both Davies and Marshall. "I work with all my best friends and family here, we're all in it together," Davies said. "Building a truck in three weeks, its balls to the wall, but everyone knows their job, and they nail it. If you love what you do, you won't work a day in your life."

Pippie to go home but her fight not over yet
After spending eight months in hospital care, burn survivor Isabella "Pippie" Kruger is going home today.
She will be spoilt with a weekend away with her family at a luxury hotel.
Three-year-old Pippie earned worldwide attention after becoming the first South African to have skin grown for her in a US laboratory after suffering third-degree burns to 80% of her body.
Her mother, Anice Kruger, recently won a weekend at the hotel for being "the most inspiring South African".
She will spend the weekend with Pippie, "the world's best husband" and her one-year-old son.
To get around, Pippie rides in a little buggy - a special pram that keeps her seated in the correct position. It has shock absorbers to prevent her being hurt by bumps.
"This chair has enough straps for a serial killer," joked Pippie's mom.
Pippie will continue to visit a rehabilitation hospital three times a week for occupational, speech and physiotherapy.
Her new home will be converted into a "mini gym".
"Pippie will have a standing ring, a chair for the bath, a walking ring and side-lying frame to teach her to lie on her side again," said Kruger.
"Her new room makes Beijing look boring," said Kruger, referring to the Hello Kitty dolls and toys that Pippie has received from all over the world.
Kruger said the family will not return home to Ellisras until Pippie can sit and walk.
"We will stay here until she is 100% perfect.
"I can see a lot of improvement. Recovery is about all the tiny changes that will add up to the big miracle one day."
Kruger said her biggest challenge was disagreeing with the doctors about the extent of the injury to Pippie's brain.
Pippie's brain was affected by strokes but Anice believes she will learn to speak again.
"I will never believe she has brain damage."
Occupational therapist Carmen Wright, who has been treating Pippie since April, is hopeful about Pippie's recovery.
"You never know, she is only three. She is still developing."
Wright is busy sewing the pressure garments that Pippie will have to wear 23 hours a day for two years to reduce scarring.
The hand-made suit includes a face mask, leggings, gloves, socks, arm bands and a jacket.
"Every couple of months we'll have to remake everything as Pippie grows," said Wright.
"Pippie's face will be fully covered in a mask with holes for her nose, eyes and mouth.
"The pressure suit helps regenerate the skin and prevent discolouration."
Wright made splints for Pippie's hands to keep them open.
"Her hands might never be like ours but she will learn to use them the Pippie way."

"My AL MVP for 2013. Read more at http://www.FantasySportsEmpires.com "
"Jones hit .280 or higher in each of his last two seasons while showing big gains in his home run totals. Jones is in his prime and should put up numbers similar to 2012, if not better."
"At age 27, 30+ HR now expected as few of his 32 last year were cheap"
"Insane HR/FB spike likely to regress but, at 27, maybe not much"
"Adam Jones finally found his power stroke and went for 32 HRs in 2012 as well as stealing a career high 16 Bases. While those numbers are good, Adam did only manage a very unimpressive 82 RBIs. This season with Brian Roberts healthy giving the Orioles their first relevant lead-off hitter since Brady Anderson, RBIs should come to Jones who can go 30/100/20 easily in 2013."
"Desmond is a very underrated 20/20 SS with the potential to continue to improve every season. One of the most impressive parts of Desmond is the fact he will do all of his intangible Fantasy numbers while hitting near .300. It does not get much better than that for SS's in Fantasy Baseball."
"Do you want McCutchen-like production at a discounted price? If so, Jones is your man. "
"If you?re into sabermetrics, then his .332 batting average on balls in play in 2012 should be a red flag. But even if he dies regress, another 20-20 season is not a stretch by any means. "

I am not part of Officer Book's family, but I am close friends with a couple of his aunts and uncles. I would just like to say how touching it was to see the support being poured out on this family from not only the PD and other agencies, but from San Angelo as a "family". I have never seen such respect for a funeral before. People came out of buildings downtown, some stood outside of cars. Older men, stood at attention, other people had hands over their hearts. San Angelo stood still for a moment to pay respects to this young man and his family. I don't think people of San Angelo will know just how much the Book family appreciates it. They will be touched forever by all your support.

Erma Franklin, 64, Soloist and Backup Singer
Erma Franklin, a Grammy-nominated recording artist who also backed up her sister Aretha, died on Saturday at her home in Detroit. She was 64. The cause was cancer, her family said. Ms. Franklin spent most of the last three decades working for Boysville of Michigan, an agency that deals with troubled children. Her biggest hit, "Piece of My Heart," was released in 1967 and she was nominated for a Grammy the next year. After it was used in a Levi's jeans commercial in Europe in 1992, the song took on a new life.

Review/Music; A Concert of New Music 'In Celebration of the Soloist
One approaches a new music concert called "A Celebration of the Soloist" and containing a piece called "Narcissus" with some suspicion. One of the minor illnesses of postwar composition has been the instrumental solo as scientific experiment, whereby acoustical and mechanical properties are stretched and music is lost in the performer's self-absorption. The New York New Music Ensemble calmed our fears as Friday's concert at Symphony Space went on. The evening was largely about the...

MUSIC REVIEW; Philharmonic Violinist Steps Forth as a Soloist
In September, Sheryl Staples, a violinist originally from Los Angeles, was appointed principal associate concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic. Previously she had been associate concertmaster with the Cleveland Orchestra, a post she earned when she was just 26.

MUSIC REVIEW; The Furies, Tamed by the Soloist
How often does a concert program annotator get an opportunity like this? Here was Orpheus, the conductorless chamber orchestra, at Carnegie Hall on Saturday evening, and the centerpiece of the concert was Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto, with its supposed connection to the Orpheus myth. Yet the program notes said nothing of that. Of course, it is the pianist -- in this case, Bruno Leonardo Gelber -- who is said to represent Orpheus in the reading of the brief second movement proposed by Liszt and expounded...

Three Jazz Soloists Give a Rhythm Section The Starring Role
The rhythm section is the great overlooked engine of jazz, the power behind a performance. A good one, interactive and swinging, sensitive and dynamic, can make a bad soloist sound good; a bad rhythm section can slaughter genius. At the Village Vanguard this week and for the next two weeks, the pianist Kenny Barron is part of a rhythm section that includes two of his longtime associates, the bassist Buster Williams and the drummer Ben Riley. The engagement is unusual both because of its length and its...

George Cleve conducted the Mostly Mozart orchestra in a program of Mozart favorites on Wednesday evening at Avery Fisher Hall. There were some lovely moments, but for the most part, it was an evening of honorable averageness. The orchestra played like the competent modern freelance ensemble it is, and Mr. Cleve offered readings that were always tasteful but often flavorless, and which did not trouble with either rhetorical stances or stylistic pretentions. For many in the audience, that was...

WHEN Hugh Wolff mounts the podium at Carnegie Hall on Saturday night, he will be taking part in something of a family reunion.

A Shattered Career Rebuilt, And Now a Debut in Boston
Susan Davenny Wyner never intended to become a conductor. This is just one of the paradoxes about the concert she will conduct on Monday at Jordan Hall in Boston with an orchestra of top-notch freelancers. It will be the most significant and challenging performance of a lifetime that has been brushed with near-tragedy. When Ms. Wyner, who is 51, was an undergraduate at Cornell University in the 1960's, she studied comparative literature, took a second major in music and played violin and viola in the...

Stephen Kates, 59, Teacher And a Prizewinning Cellist
Stephen Kates, a cellist and teacher who was a Tchaikovsky International Cello Competition prizewinner, died on Saturday at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. He was 59 and lived in Annapolis, Md. The cause was lymphoma, said his wife, Mary Louise. Mr. Kates won the silver medal (the second prize) at the Tchaikovsky competition in Moscow in 1966, when he was just 23, though he had already appeared as a soloist with the New York Philharmonic. After winning the award, he toured widely as a soloist and played...

Falcons Downed 4-2 At Northern Colorado
May 5, 2007 GREELEY, Colo. - Despite racking up 15 hits, Air Force struggled to get runs up on the scoreboard, falling 4-2 to Northern Colorado Saturday at Jackson Field. The Falcons fall to 8-38 while the Bears improved to 12-28 prior their game with Utah Valley State. Five Falcons had two-or-more hits in the game. Karl Bolt and Shea Hall led the way, both going 3-for-4. Chay Derbigny, Josh Meents and Jason Griggs had two hits apiece. Air Force starter Jake Petro (3-9) kept the game close, allowing three runs off eight hits in 6.1 innings pitched. Mitch Brown and Michael Ruvolo pitched in relief for the Falcons. UNC reliever Matt Collins (2-1) picked up the win with two scoreless innings of relief. Tyler Pearson threw a scoreless eighth and ninth innings for the save. Bear starter Chris Reap allowed the two runs off 12 hits in five innings pitched. Air Force struck first with a run in the fourth inning to take an early 1-0 lead. UNC came right back with a run in the bottom of the inning to tie the ball game at 1-1. The Falcons immediately re-took the lead with a run in the fifth to go back up 2-1. Northern Colorado tied the game up with John Ray's homer and went ahead with another run in the sixth to make it a 3-2 game. UNC tacked on an insurance run in the eighth. The Bears had 10 hits in the game with four players collecting two hits each. Air Force returns to action next Friday, May 11, hosting Utah.

A strong cold front being dragged eastward by a Midwest blizzard could bring damaging wind gusts to the Carolinas mountains and foothills through early Saturday, and meteorologists say Piedmont residents also will experience the strong winds.
Mountain snow and colder temperatures will accompany the changing weather pattern, but forecasters see a quieter weekend for the Carolinas.
High wind warnings are posted across the North Carolina mountains, with a high wind watch in effect for the foothills. In addition, a winter weather advisory has been issued for the northern mountains, with 1-2 inches of snow possible Thursday night and another 2-3 inches expected Friday and Friday night.
The snow will be good news for North Carolinas ski resorts on the weekend before Christmas.
Increasing cloudiness will herald the arrival of the cold front Thursday morning, and rain will spread into the Charlotte region by early afternoon. National Weather Service meteorologists say between a half-inch and inch of rain could fall before the precipitation comes to an end between midnight and 3 a.m. Friday.
High temperatures Thursday will be in the upper 50s in Charlotte.
The main impact of this frontal system will be wind, said James Oh, of the Weather Services office in Greer, S.C. Winds will gust to 25 to 30 mph over the Piedmont, with stronger wind gusts to 50 mph in the mountains by early tonight.
Forecasters dont expect severe weather with the frontal passage, although severe thunderstorms and tornadoes are forecast Thursday across southern Georgia, southern South Carolina, and northern Florida. Even parts of eastern North Carolina could experience strong storms.
Friday will bring sunny skies but windy conditions and colder temperatures. In fact, Charlottes high might not exceed 45 degrees, and winds are predicted to gust to near 30 mph.
Wind gusts of 60 mph or stronger are possible Friday and Friday night in the mountains, where the high wind warning will continue.
There is the potential for widespread damaging winds over a large part of the mountains and immediately adjacent foothills, said Harry Gerapetritis, also from the Weather Services Greer office. Isolated wind damage is possible across the Piedmont.
The winds will relent Saturday morning, setting the stage for a clear but seasonably cool weekend. Highs on Saturday and Sunday are expected to be in the low 50s, with morning lows in the mid to upper 20s.
The next storm system is predicted to arrive Christmas Day, with rain forecast for the Charlotte region from sometime Tuesday into Wednesday. Highs will be in the mid 50s.

The south is marking Waitangi Day with music, food and community spirit in Riverton and on the Oreti River shore.
Taramea Bay Soundshell Trust secretary Cazna Gilder said excitement was building for the 10th annual Waitangi Day Music Fest at the Riverton Soundshell.
A fashion show, performances by kapa haka groups, along with music by 2012 Smokefreerockquest winners Lazarus Rising, The Giant Squid Ambush, Tie Dye and Apache Rose, among other bands, could make this year the best yet, Ms Gilder said.
In previous years, the event has attracted between 400 and 600 people. The soundshell trust committee is hoping for double that number tomorrow.
The soundshell is one of only two operating soundshells in New Zealand, and Ms Gilder said the town was lucky to have it.
Opening it up for the annual event was a good way to promote the building. "This is such an important part of our social history. It's an awesome space."
While the event started as a roots festival celebration of Bob Marley's birthday, it made sense to tie it into Waitangi Day, she said.
The event runs from 2pm until 8pm and although it is BYO, glass is prohibited.
Entry costs $10 for adults; and a gold coin donation for children.
In another Waitangi Day event, a Waka Ama Fun Day is planned at the Oreti River, 1.5 kilometres past the Invercargill Rowing Club at Sandy Point, on the left-hand side, at 10.30am tomorrow.
Participants are asked to bring shorts, jandals, and dive booties, water, polyprops and an extra change of clothes, as well as food for a barbecue or picnic.

Hey Kate-
Lovely photos! Thanks for stopping by last weekend, the onsen were great.
Weekened at Home/Hiking Ancient Pilgrammage Road
Trip Start
Jun 27, 2009
Trip End
Jun 25, 2011
2 weekends ago we took a day trip into the mountains to a town called Hongu. We visited 2/3 'Best Onsen in Kansai Area.' The first was Kawa-yu Onsen where the heated water rises up through the banks of the river. On our walk down the riverbank Katherine yelled my name and told me to come quickly because she spotted a 'Mukade' or poisonous Japanese centipede!! I've only heard stories from other JET's about trips to the hospital after bites from smaller mukades...so this was so scary to see one about 9 inches long and with RED LEGS!!! So after we made it past the mukade, who was also moving rather fast down the steps....we were standing on the rocky river bank. At this onsen you can literally make your own onsen by digging out some of the stones and letting your hole fill with water! We opted for the permanent riverside onsen instead, but couldn't put our feet in for a long time as this was the hottest onsen I've been to yet! Lily walked across the onsen in the scalding hot water on a dare for 500 YEN!! haha We then met up with Dave, the JET who lives in Hongu, went to visit his new house, bbq-ed Japanese noodles and veggies, and enjoyed a classic movie that was on cable - ET!
The next day Lily and I met up with Justin and Tony in Kushimoto to go fishing. My predecessor left me 2 fishing rods in the trunk of my car so we decided to put them to use. We first went to the Koza River so Justin could try and catch some fresh water fish (with a net) for his fish tank - no luck, so next stop was the Kushimoto Fishing Port. We had no idea where to go, but found some serious fishermen and decided to try a spot near them. We were using mini shrimp as bait and soon after we put the bait in the water fish started to swarm! Lily caught the first little fish, and I tried to be brave and get the hook out but it was in pretty well...We walked over to a fisherman and said "Sumimasen!" and he helped get the hook out. Then he told us that the fish we caught was a type of 'fugu' or blowfish! We were so excited and ended up catching 3 more of the same kind. This type of blowfish doesn't have spikes so they weren't dangerous to touch. The real excitement was when Justin swooped in and caught a huge blow fish (with spikes) with the net! They swim really slowly so it wasn't as challenging, but still so cool! He was huge, maybe 7-8 inches long. He kept trying to poke him with the net so he would puff up but he never did. The same fisherman came over and told us not to touch and that this type was dangerous! Justin wanted to keep this one and put him in his fish tank, but I felt bad because he kept hitting his head against the side of the bucket, so we let them go :) There are 40 kinds of blow fish caught and grown in Japan and 10,000 tons of blow fish are eaten each year! There is an old Japanese expression, "I want to eat fugu, but I don't want to die." Since fugu's poison can lead to instantaneous deaths of diners, only licensed cooks are allowed to prepare fugu. Fugu dishes are usually expensive and one meal can cost $100-$200 per person at a restaurant. However, there are also inexpensive fugu dishes (from $15 to $20) available.
This week in school I've been starting out my lessons by giving each kid an English name. I remember how cool it was when I had a French name, and how my friends and I used to call each other by our French names outside of class-so I wanted to do the same thing for my students here. They thought every name was hilarious and each kid seemed to turn bright red from embarrassment as I gave them their name. Class favorites seem to be: Steve (they immediately yell out "Steven Spielberg"), Tom ("Tom Cruise"), Brad ("Brad Pitt-o"), Jessica (they yell out the name Jusco, the local department store), Sophia (the think is funny because it sounds like Mafia). I tried to reassure them that these are the most popular names in America!!
They continue to love learning about Halloween - they love looking at pictures of real Jack-o-Lanterns, and love listening to the scary music cd I made. We even did a Mummy Race activity where they wrapped each other in toilet paper to become mummies! They really like the idea of all American 'Hallmark Holidays' but so far with Halloween the actual items one can purchase are limited. Japanese pumpkins are dark green/black and VERY tough to cut, so that eliminated pumpkin carving as an activity. But Baskin Robbins does have pumpkin flavored ice cream that all the kids love.
Something I really enjoy doing is eating lunch with the kids...I think they learn so much about me and western culture when I eat with them. I was told by a fellow-JET that if you really want to freak the kids out, eat raw carrots. Of course I was looking for new foods to shock them with, so I bought carrots on my next trip to the grocery store. You should've seen the looks on their faces when I bit into the carrot - whispers/shrieks were heard around the class as word was spread that I was actually eating RAW carrots! Some of the more daring students actually came right up to my desk and just had to see the action up close. I could actually understand what they were saying about me, how only rabbits eat raw carrots!! haha I told them "No! In America, we eat carrots like this! GOOD!" Students also came up to my desk at lunch and said the word "Diet" I laughed and said "I wish!" I guess that was a good thing, they thought my food looked healthy! Today I had a bagel with peanut butter and jelly and some kid yelled "Hamburger!" I laughed and tried to explain what was on my bagel...They're also fascinated by trail mix and always put their hands out and act like little beggar children and say "Please!" "Please!" "Please!"
I'm also enjoying teaching Hi-Fives and Thumbs Up, they seem scared to actually hit my hand hard, but then love it once they see that's how you're supposed to do it!
This past weekend there was a Wakayama Jet hiking trip a few hours north. We spent most of Saturday walking the Kumano Kodo - the pilgrimage road that lead to Kumano Sanzan (the three grand shrines of Kumano-one of which is at the NACHI WATERFALL in my town!). Kumano is honored as a sacred place where the gods have lived since ancient times. People entrust their future happiness to the gods by traversing the rugged path to visit Kumano. When this ancient road was created, the roads and rest stops were maintained because the emperor took many trips along here. Thus the road became more popular. Since religion spread from the Imperial House to the ordinary people, many pilgrims visited Kumano. The lines of pilgrims looked like ants, so it was called the "pilgrimage of ants to Kumano". The reason for the huge spread of the religion was because the gods of Kumano are generous and accept anybody, without regards to status or gender.
We had a great Japanese guide who stopped to tell us about every plant, twig, berry, bird we saw - which didn't make for much of a good work-out, but it was very scenic. The slow pace gave us all a chance to catch up with the other JET's we hadn't seen in a while. The weather was perfect, high 70's and we had a picnic lunch at the highest point of our hike.
To end a great day, another JET Chris, in his 3rd year, had a party at his house nearby. It was great to see even more JET's and I got a chance to speak Japanese to some of Chris's Japanese friends at the party.
Sunday we stopped in Shirahama on our way back down south and went to a world famous hotel and onsen. Hotel Kawakyu won the Japnese Architecture Award in '93 and it's roof is paved with more than 500,000 glazed tiles, the same as that in the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. It looks like a medieval castle on the outside and inside the grand lobby is the largest mosaic Rome-style floor in the world, complete with 6m tall Marble columns, and a 22.5K gold foil ceiling!!!

FREDERICKTOWN — There's nothing like a major challenge to start the season.
2011 High School Football
Scores, stories, photos and videos of the local teams from the 2011 season.
And for the Fredericktown and Highland football teams, they'd like it no other way.
The Freddies and Scots will face off on opening night once again this Friday at 7 p.m. at Fredericktown High School. Both teams are fresh off playoff appearances a year ago, but that's not necessary for this backyard rivalry to be a dogfight.
"It's always a big game. Our communities are so close and a lot of our kids know their kids," said Highland coach Chad Carpenter. "Anytime you have two really close communities like that, there's a good chance the schools can develop into great rivals. It's really important for both our teams to start out with a win. You add that with the fact there's been some real good games over the years, and this has developed into a nice little rivalry."
"We're real excited to get back to this — to show that we have this new 2011 football team," said Fredericktown coach Brian Baum. "We've been looking forward to Highland all summer and the kids have been working hard for that. It's an important game right off the bat. It's a great test week one every year."
Both teams lost some key performers from last year's playoff teams, but there's still plenty of talent on both benches — especially at the skill positions.
Fredericktown, which made it to the Division V state semifinals a year ago, return News' area leading ground gainer Matt Smith. The junior running back gained 1,695 yards on less than 200 carries last fall, good enough for nearly 9 yards a carry.

Teen substance use is a problem that persists, but communities, schools and parents can play a crucial role in a coordinated plan of deterrence. Parents need to stay informed of the risks that teens face. Several patterns highlight the issues adults need to address in assisting teens:
Three main substances account for the majority of substance use and abuse by youth
Tobacco (in the form of cigarettes), alcohol, and marijuana have been the most widely used substances by teens for several decades. During the last several years, the use of each of these substances has decreased significantly, but substantial minorities of teens try these substances and engage in current use.
Statistics show that the majority of youth have tried cigarettes and alcohol by the end of their teen years, and 1 in 5 teens indicate current substance use. Significantly, the order in which teens are likely to try substances starts with tobacco, shortly followed by alcohol, and then marijuana, with youngsters starting experimentation around 12 years of age. For many youngsters, tobacco experimentation is a gateway to other substance use. This data suggests that all parents need to be alert to the possibility that their children will try substances and may move on to regular use.
Use of other substances follow trends
Just as fashions change, so do the substances with which teens get involved. Cocaine, crack, heroin, and club drugs such as ecstasy have been prevalent at times. In the last years, young people are also using prescription drugs, most notably painkillers, but also some psychiatric medications used to treat Attention- Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and anxiety and depressive disorders. Additionally, some kids seem ready to try any item or activity that can give them exciting sensations or an altered mental state. These latter items and activities include inhaling cleaning fluids or paint, self-induced oxygen deprivation by choking oneself for short periods of time or getting the breath squeezed out by someone else, and using pressurized air (used to clean electronic equipment) to knock out oxygen. All of these items or activities add a substance to the body that creates a changed mental status or deprive the brain of oxygen, which also creates a changed mental status. Informal contacts among teens and some Internet interchanges helps them find out about these trends and the "joys" associated with them.

Let's Spend The Night Together:
Confessions of Rock's Greatest Groupies
(premiere party, w/ live panel of special guests!)
Co-presented by VH1 and Don't Knock The Rock
Take an emotional journey back to the early Seventies, the Golden Age of Groupies! Some were in it for love, some for the music, and some for their art — and four decades later, these passionate women share their stories of sexual conquest and bitter heartbreak, and finally reveal whether it was all worth it. Told through the eyes of rock and roll historian and super groupie Pamela Des Barres (author of the famous 1987 tell-all "I'm With The Band", and the brand-new book "Let's Spend The Night Together") this ninety-minute documentary offers memories of her sexual exploits and longtime escapades with such notorious rockers as Mick Jagger, Jim Morrison and Jimmy Page — and chronicles her cross-country journey to reconnect with the iconic women who loved and inspired the great rock stars of our time. Join moderator Michael Des Barres as he Q&As (schedule permitting) with Pamela Des Barres, Lori Mattix, Cassandra Peterson ("Elvira"!), Michele Overman, Catherine James and the film's director Jenna Rosher on the Cinefamily stage after the film — and stick around for a reception on our Spanish patio after the show!
Hey dolls,
cannot believe the end of Summer is nigh . . . sigh. Almost my birthday again . . . sheesh! Have been so bloody busy lately; loads of travel. When your boyfriend lives 1500 miles away, what's a girl gonna do? I can't bear to miss him play (in every way) for too long! Just visited him for a few days, saw several gigs which make my heart sing. . . his version of Dion's "Love Came To Me" takes me to a place I didn't even know existed-pure musical bliss, coupled with my early teen obsession, buying his 45s at the Reseda Record Rack. . . the glory of it is beyond words…and I like Houston, and Houston likes Mike Stinson. He is nominated for 4 Houston Music Awards and you can vote here: http://polls.houstonpress.com/polls/hou/mas2010/
I also taught another writing workshop in New York with my fantabulous Manhattan dolls, 18 of them! We had a blast! I plan to be back there in November for another round. I stay with sweet Sharon Ackerman, the hostess with it all!
I am now in Novato, Ca visiting my James Dean pal, Toni Lee Scott. . . she and Jimmy were very close. Can you imagine? What a story! I wrote a script about them which is still AVAILABLE!
Last weekend I took 10 people on my 8th (9th?) Rock Tour of Hollywood & Laurel Canyon. . .and it was a first for even me! Our screenwriter for HBO's upcoming "I'm WIth the Band," the crazily gifted Jill Soloway came along and wanted to peruse my actual diaries, and as I thumbed through those Very Important Tomes, I came across a map that Gram Parsons drew for me back in 1969, directions to their new pad off Woodrow Wilson Drive, "Burrito Manor." He wrote "Look for the Brick Pillars," and lo and be-be-behold, they were still there! I even wrote a song/poem called "Brick Pillars" about my love for Mr. Hillman.
That's where I met my goddaughter, Polly Parsons when GP asked me to babysit her. She was almost a year and a half, an exquisite, serious little toddler. I hadn't been there since they moved out n 1970. My soul thrummed dolls and sprouted wings- as you can see!
February 14-a sad Valentine's day for me, dolls. I lost a very close, beloved friend, Doug Feiger, to cancer today. He fought that bugger so valiantly and gracefully for over five years, and became a better man in the process. Doug inspired so many of us by sharing his courage and optimism and ultimate acceptance of his plight. His determination staved off that beast way longer than his doctors predicted. He was the snappiest dresser, the poppiest singer, the most self-possessed conversationalist. . . I miss his presence acutely already, although I felt him near me today. He told me to take care of myself. I loved/love him dearly . . . I will be reading for him nightly from The American Book of the Dead, and hopefully assist him on his journey . . .
I have been laid low with 2 versions of icky chest ailments that have had me on 2 different antibiotics for the last 3 weeks. That incredibly fast-track mini tour I did interviewing groupie goddesses in the snow took its toll on me bigtime. The pace, planes, eating on the run, freezing my tits off, being ON every day and night wreaked havoc with my usually sunny immunity. But, hey, I'll recover any minute now, right?
I did start 2 new writing workshops last week however, and all the dolls are, as usual, groovy and gifted sweethearts, every one. I am always amazed at the level of talent they
arrive with, and so many of the girls become fast friends from the outset. Like minded music loving females bonding with words!
I never even wrote about my New Year's Eve, spent with my dear pal Iva Turner, watching our fave hot tamale rockabilly lord, James Intveld shred what was left of 2009. That year already sounds like so long ago, doesn't it? We danced in 2010 and enjoyed it immensely. I did miss my boyfriend, Mike, having spent the last 6 New Year's Eves with him . . . but, alas, he now resides in Houston.
I visited him last month and got to see him play a few stellar shows- one at his local home away from home, the Volcano Bar. His new song, "Late For My Funeral" bowled me over, he is so bloody talented. His 3rd album, "Jukebox In Your Heart" is being pressed as I write this! Yay! We cuddled and wooed and he took me to all the local thrift stores and vintage clothing joints. He had even stocked his kitchen with an array of gluten-free treats. Sigh. I actually took a Greyhound bus from Austin to Houston, after teaching my glorious students there, and is was quite a serene little jaunt. It was over all too fast and I am now counting the days until my next trip to Texas mid- March.
We've almost finished the VH1 rock doc "Let's Spend the Night Together," which should be airing in May. In L.A. I spent quality time in front of the cameras with Miss Mercy, Catherine James, Cassandra "Elvira" Peterson and Lori "Lightning" Mattix discussing the glory and heartbreak of groupiedom. I can't wait for you all to hear their candid outrageous tales!
February started off with a dynamite explosion when some unknown somebody decided to report that Zooey Deschanel was going to play me in the upcoming HBO "I'm With the Band" pilot. I have been keeping kinda mum on the subject, waiting for the perfectly exquisite moment to announce the momentous news, but that particular somebody beat me to it. Oh well, it's certainly good news, isn't it dolls? I couldn't be happier about Zooey – a rock loving dollface, vintage fashionplate, a stellar actress and kindred spirit. And HBO? My fave shows, "Big Love" and "In Treatment" say it all. We are in the midst of meeting with writers, and I will keep you updated as we move the project along!!!
I saw my pal Paul Reuben's supercool Pee Wee Herman show at L.A.'s Nokia Theater last week (with James Intveld) and jaw-dropped in awe, I rollicked with laughter and had a blast. Paul said he will probably take it to Vegas or Broadway..eeny meeny miney moe???
I have to go put on my flannel jammies, dolls and rub my chest with Vick's Vapor Rub and think of my sweet mommy who used to comfort me in that oh so familiar way…
Will write sooner than soon, promise…
Miss P
Hi-di-ho dolls!
I sure had an oddball few days in Parsippany New Jersey at the Chiller autograph fest. I have to admit I did have some fun amidst the unique bunch of guests signing their names on various and sundry glossies and posing with endless smiles for thrilled strangers. Thank the saints that my Austin pal Roggie Baer met me at the Hilton (in the vast middle of nowhere-like an island unto itself) and helped me set up, hang out, and greet fans. It's almost as if the rest of the world stops and you're aboard the B-feature Love Boat sailing to parts unknown, very slowly.
To my immediate right was a long lost hero of mine, Mickey Rooney, (if you haven't seen the film, 'The Last Mile', and only know Mickey as Andy Hardy, please go to Netflix and be amazed) who is now 89 and sort of propped up by his smiling wife Jan. I was there a couple of days and finally got the courage to ask if I might have a photo with him. It was Halloween and I was wearing devil horns, which he took great offense to. "Not with those horns on," he said dramatically with a frown. Jan came to my rescue…"Oh Mickey," she chided, shaking her head. He had long, long lines and I am sure his very old hand must have ached and throbbed, signing so many "Mickeys." When Richard Dreyfuss arrived, he toddled over and hugged him tightly.
It was a great pleasure to have my longtime friend (and fellow groupie-she has a chapter in "Let's Spend the Night Together") Cassandra "ELVIRA" Peterson there to wave to across the crowded room.
The only time we left the premises was to have dinner with her at a fab Indian restaurant one evening – otherwise, as I said, it was a strange bulky Hilton floating through Nowheresville. It was grand to
meet some of my fans, and I enjoyed chatting about their personal rockin' experiences. I sold a bundle of photos, which I also have here on the site for sale. The big sellers, of course, were the naked
hippie shots by the late great Tom Wilkes, but Robert Plant was popular as well!
Bowser from Sha Na Na was there (The GTOs used to dance with them on stage) Davy Jones from the Monkees too. When I met him (40 years later) and reminded him that we once hung out at his Hollywood Hills pad, he looked at me as if I might have 2 or 3 heads. Maybe because his very young new wife was observing. (Actually, I got high with him more than once, and Mickey Dolenz too) Linda Blair was a sweetheart and I actually got to meet Ann Margret, who was quite charming and seemed to have heard of me. Viva viva Las Vegas, baby!
I went looking for a fellow I was surprised to see on the menu, one David Johansen of the New York Dolls. I finally found him, pretty disgruntled and unamused in a small room filled with florescent lighting, making him appear craggier than ever. He still looked hot to me, dolls. A VIP in my rock & roll book! I gave him a copy of the GTOs album and 8X10(on sale here too!) and attempted to pay him the appropriate homage without groveling. Many years ago I read that he said the GTOs were his fave band. Perhaps he was kidding.
I did meet some kindred spirits and had a few Absoluts with some creative souls and all was right with this wacky world – Parsippany New Jersey, a place I will probably never see again.

Suicide: What to do when someone is suicidal

Suicide: What to do when someone is suicidal
When someone you know appears suicidal, you might not know what to do. Learn warning signs, what questions to ask and how to get help.
By Mayo Clinic staffWhen someone says he or she is thinking about suicide, or says things that sound as if the person is considering suicide, it can be very upsetting. You may not be sure what to do to help, whether you should take talk of suicide seriously, or if your intervention might make the situation worse. Taking action is always the best choice. Here's what to do.
Start by asking questions
The first step is to find out whether the person is in danger of acting on suicidal feelings. Be sensitive, but ask direct questions, such as:
- How are you coping with what's been happening in your life?
- Do you ever feel like just giving up?
- Are you thinking about dying?
- Are you thinking about hurting yourself?
- Are you thinking about suicide?
- Have you thought about how you would do it?
- Do you know when you would do it?
- Do you have the means to do it?
Asking about suicidal thoughts or feelings won't push someone into doing something self-destructive. In fact, offering an opportunity to talk about feelings may reduce the risk of acting on suicidal feelings.
Look for warning signs
You can't always tell when a loved one or friend is considering suicide. But here are some common signs:
- Talking about suicide — for example, making statements such as "I'm going to kill myself," "I wish I were dead" or "I wish I hadn't been born"
- Getting the means to commit suicide, such as buying a gun or stockpiling pills
- Withdrawing from social contact and wanting to be left alone
- Having mood swings, such as being emotionally high one day and deeply discouraged the next
- Being preoccupied with death, dying or violence
- Feeling trapped or hopeless about a situation
- Increasing use of alcohol or drugs
- Changing normal routine, including eating or sleeping patterns
- Doing risky or self-destructive things, such as using drugs or driving recklessly
- Giving away belongings or getting affairs in order when there is no other logical explanation for why this is being done
- Saying goodbye to people as if they won't be seen again
- Developing personality changes or being severely anxious or agitated, particularly when experiencing some of the warning signs listed above
Get emergency help, if needed
If you believe someone is in danger of committing suicide or has made a suicide attempt:
- Don't leave the person alone.
- Call 911 or your local emergency number right away. Or, if you think you can do so safely, take the person to the nearest hospital emergency room yourself.
- Try to find out if he or she is under the influence of alcohol or drugs or may have taken an overdose.
- Tell a family member or friend right away what's going on.
If a friend or family member talks or behaves in a way that makes you believe he or she might commit suicide, don't try to handle the situation without help — get help from a trained professional as quickly as possible. The person may need to be hospitalized until the suicidal crisis has passed.
Teenagers: When someone you know is suicidal
If you're a teenager who's concerned that a friend or classmate may be considering suicide, take action.
- Ask the person directly about his or her feelings, even though it may be awkward. Listen to what the person has to say, and take it seriously. Just talking to someone who really cares can make a big difference.
- If you've talked to the person and you're still concerned, share your concerns with a teacher, guidance counselor, someone at church, someone at a local youth center or another responsible adult.
It may be hard to tell whether a friend or classmate is suicidal, and you may be afraid of taking action and being wrong. If someone's behavior or talk makes you think he or she might be suicidal, the person may be struggling with some major issues, even if not considering suicide at the moment. You can help the person get to the right resources — even though he or she may not want to ask for it.
Offer support
If a friend or loved one is thinking about suicide, he or she needs professional help, even if suicide isn't an immediate danger. Here's what you can do.
- Encourage the person to seek treatment. Someone who is suicidal or has severe depression may not have the energy or motivation to find help. If your friend or loved one doesn't want to consult a doctor or mental health provider, suggest finding help from a support group, crisis center, faith community, teacher or other trusted person. You can help by offering support and advice — but remember that it's not your job to become a substitute for a mental health provider.
- Offer to help the person take steps to get assistance and support. For example, you can research treatment options, make phone calls and review insurance benefit information, or even offer to go with the person to an appointment.
- Encourage the person to communicate with you. Someone who's suicidal may be tempted to bottle up feelings because he or she feels ashamed, guilty or embarrassed. Be supportive and understanding, and express your opinions without placing blame. Listen attentively and avoid interrupting.
- Be respectful and acknowledge the person's feelings. Don't try to talk the person out of his or her feelings or express shock. Remember, even though someone who's suicidal isn't thinking logically, the emotions are real. Not respecting how the person feels can shut down communication.
- Don't be patronizing or judgmental. For example, don't tell someone, "things could be worse" or "you have everything to live for." Instead, ask questions such as, "What's causing you to feel so bad?" "What would make you feel better?" or "How can I help?"
- Never promise to keep someone's suicidal feelings a secret. Be understanding, but explain that you may not be able to keep such a promise if you think the person's life is in danger. At that point, you have to get help.
- Offer reassurance that things will get better. When someone is suicidal, it seems as if nothing will make things better. Reassure the person that these feelings are temporary, and that with appropriate treatment, he or she will feel better about life again.
- Encourage the person to avoid alcohol and drug use. Using drugs or alcohol may seem to ease the painful feelings, but ultimately it makes things worse — it can lead to reckless behavior or feeling more depressed. If the person can't quit on his or her own, offer to help find treatment.
- Remove potentially dangerous items from the person's home, if possible. If you can, make sure the person doesn't have items around that could be used to commit suicide — such as knives, razors, guns or drugs. If the person takes a medication that could be used for overdose, encourage him or her to have someone safeguard it and give it as prescribed.
Take all signs of suicidal behavior seriously
If someone you know says he or she is thinking of suicide or is behaving in a way that makes you think the person may be suicidal, don't play it down or ignore the situation. Many people who commit suicide have expressed the intention at some point. You may worry that you're overreacting, but the safety of your friend or loved one is most important. Don't worry about straining your relationship when someone's life is at stake.
You're not responsible for preventing someone from taking his or her own life — but your intervention may help the person see that other options are available to stay safe and get treatment.

Posted by emfleekHow do you think a junior college football team would do against a division 1 football team?I know that's a bit of a stretch, but I think it was Lesnar that said at one point that guys go to Junior College to wrestle because they can't get into a D1 program. The talent dropoff I'm sure is quite drastic.I could be totally wrong on this but my gut (and heart) tells me I'm not.
