Roland Simmons Lumalight 48 Model Table or Floor Lamp
Cheap looking Nathalie from Fredericton, NB– Verified Buyer It's made out of cardboard, looks cheap. too expensive for what it is. Would not recommend, other for a playroom. |
awesome JASON KINASH from COURTENAY, BC– Verified Buyer a perfect signature piece for a corner super easy to assemble and believe me i am NOT good at that stuff |
Fun design and easy assembly Domingo from Kent, WA– Verified Buyer Easily assembled and bold, fun, interesting design adds a splash of color to any room. |
Lovely piece of lighting. One HUGE flaw. Joepro from Bowie, MD– Verified Buyer The lamp is beautiful. I will likely buy another in another color. The only HUGE problem was that during assembly, I understood the instructions to say place the end supports WITHIN the lamp ends. This resulted in my tearing the lamp along its seams a bit. I nearly returned it, but if I position it correctly, the tears don't show. Otherwise, I am very happy with the lamp. |
Beautiful ligthed sculptures The Weezy from Arvada, CO– Verified Buyer We have the lamps in red and stone. We really like the red "glow" but it's a matter of personal preference. If you are looking for reading lamps, these lamps do not provide enough light for reading. But for ambiance and decoration, they are top-notched. We have received many compliments on them.The shade is made from corrugated cardboard and very fragile. Our lamps were slightly "dented" in some spots [...] |
WONDERFUL General Cranley T. Wiggins from West Hollywood, CA– Verified Buyer Great lamp! |
Love these light Seacoast J from Charleston, SC– Verified Buyer I ordered the Lumalight 48 as a replacement for the same model purchased 10 year ago. I love the diffused and relaxing light from these lamps. Works great in my TV room. |
A brilliant, modern accent Bossa-Baby from Broomfield, Co– Verified Buyer The lumalight 48 is the perfect accent for the simple, yet modern design of our master bedroom.The diffused light gives a romanitic glow which emminates from the lamp's cool, artistic design.[...]. We are very pleased with our Roland Simmons Lumalight and with Wayfair. |
beautiful and well priced super doctor mom from Margate NJ– Verified Buyer I would recommend assembling with 2 people but once its together it is exactly what I wanted for the room, lots of comments and compliments so far |
Eye candy, a de-light! savetherobots from NY, NYC this is a really beautifully designed piece. i got the 'old gold' or orange color, a delight really. soft and moody glow is perfect for additional ambient lighting w/ a flourish of colour and sculptural art eye candy as well, v. nice Roland! it looked a bit cheap to me b4 i put it togther, fragile would be more acurate since it looks like a million bucks once assembled. i placed it just off to the side slightly from a window on top of a large dresser and have had no prblem with it blowing over despite that it is a kind of drafty area. Besides being functional lighting it offers an air of elegance which works well w/ my 'upscale urban nomad style-maven' themed Soho Studio. |
With the necessary monies in the bank to sustain living expenses for 6 months, Roland Simmons left his job as an industrial designer in the San Francisco Bay Area. With the drive to succeed and the willingness to fail, Roland Simmons set out to become one of today's most innovative and respectable designers.
Within a vacant, neighboring apartment in his complex, Roland Simmons began to discover the possibilities of constructing contemporary art and lighting out of single faced corrugated parchment. One of his early designs was sought for and distributed by the respectable George Kovacs. The piece was named the "Mummy Lamp".
Since 1976, Roland Simmons has been designing and constructing contemporary lighting. His innovative designs have received numerous awards and recognition around the globe. Now, based in Cowley, Wyoming, among the towering mountains of Yellowstone National Park, Roland Simmons continues to design and hand cut every piece that leaves the factory. The company, Interfold, Inc., is family owned and operated by his son Todd Simmons.
Today, these pieces are known as the Roland Simmons Lumalights. They are found all over the world. Each Lumalight comes with Roland's personal signature guarantee of authenticity and quality. Where there is Light, there can be no darkness. We invite you to enjoy one of our creations in your home.

I am a retailer for natural cosmetics from Slovenia. I like your new site very much.
New NaTrue labels replaced old one with strars. I have some questions about this issue. How should I present products (for example on my website) at this point as products still use old labels? Old labels, only new or both? What kind of new labels should be used (with or without description)? How long will old labels still stay on products, is there a "deadline" for producers to change labeling?
Thank you for your answers and keep up the good work!
Dear Tadej,
We will be seeing less and less of the old logos: all newly certified products have to use the new logo. Products already certified can still use the old one but should switch to the new logo when they have used up their pre-printed packaging. (Companies are allowed to use the old logo for a while yet because we don't want to oblige them to throw away printed materials - for cost and environmental reasons.)
For your website (or other communications), we would recommend that you use the new logo and, ideally, all three logos with their text
1. Natural,
2. Natural Cosmetics with Organic Portion
3. Organic Cosmetics.
If you still have a lot of products with star-logos in stock, please feel free to also show the old logos on your website. In this case, we would recommend that you make clear that these are the old logos that will soon disappear.
For background information: we changed the logos because the stars were confusing to people. Consumers in different countries had different interpretations of the stars and many didn't know what they stood for.
Our new logo has no stars but companies can indicate the certification level with the corresponding English wording. They can also use the plain NATRUE logo (without wording). In this case, consumers can easily verify the certification level of each product here on our website under "products". We also have a mobile version (m.natrue.org) so that consumers can verify this on their mobile phone in the shop!

Workers' Comp Predictive Modeling Comes of Age

Watertown— The Newtown, Connecticut shooting has ignited national controversy over firearm ownership and safety, especially if children or young adults can access them.
Scott Armstrong is the Vice President of Public Affairs for Longhouse Council Boy Scouts, which covers Central and Northern New York. He is also Founder of "Hot Shots", a shooting camp for beginner cub scouts, 6-10 years of age. The camp teaches young boys how to shoot BB guns, bow and arrows, slingshots, and other agility type of activities. The "Hot Shots" camp is their number one most popular camp, where parents attend with their children.
"For many of the kids, it is their first time shooting" said Mr. Armstrong, "so we provide certified instructors, each child has a parent or guardian supervising them and many of the kids have so much fun, they come back for more."
In New York State, you have to be 12 years old to shoot a gun-powdered firearm. The first year of camp as a boy scout, kids shoot air rifles and then once they turn 12 years old, they are allowed to shoot a 22 rifle, as well as a 20 and a 12 gauge shot gun. According to Armstrong, every certified instructor at the camps have been trained to teach firearm safety. Armstrong explained that kids are very curious about guns. Boy scouts provide programs, which allow for a safe and monitored place for kids to learn not only how to shoot guns, but about gun safety.
"We understand the scrutiny when it comes to teaching kids how to shoot guns" said Mr. Armstrong, "shooting only takes place at a certified camp, with certified instructors and parent supervision." Mr. Armstrong, as well as 9 other scout leaders traveled to Newtown, Connecticut to attend the funeral of 6 year old cub scout, Benjamin Wheeler. Mr. Armstrong helped lead the Honor Guard with over 200 scouts and scouters for Benjamin Wheeler's funeral.
"It was a tough day for all of us" said Armstrong, "a number of scouts and scout siblings were among the victims that day, so it touched the scouting movement very deeply." According to Mr. Armstrong, the tragedy at Newtown, Connecticut should not deter shooting programs for kids. Mr. Armstrong believes that organizations like boy scouts are the best opportunity for kids to learn safe and responsible shooting practices in a controlled environment, under adult supervision.

True, @swijeyakumar. And many IT professionals enter this career because they enjoy learning new skills, tinkering with new technologies, and testing out or creating different ways to do things. That's one way companies can retain their best IT staff: By providing them with educational and hands-on learning opportunities.
I agree, Mitch. Just as IT professionals skills have evolved to deal with technologies, they're also evolving to encompass the expanded reach that cloud entails -- from both a carrot and a stick perspective. So, from a stick POV, I mean things that endanger a company if not done correctly: Governance, storage, security, risk-management, etc. From a carrot POV, you have all the opportunities to expand cloud into new areas, things that we're seeing from IT departments in both the public and private sector.
IT needs to keep up with the times. The cloud will require more business, negotiation, and legal skills, and less technology skills. But IT itself will continue to be important.

MAT Automaton includes an in game command line console and a graphical menu. A sample aimbot/wallhack script is included, but users are encouraged to modify it or write their own.
Changes in this version
- New language and runtime linker for static builds of MAT
- Better region detection mechanisms
- Start the launcher via the shortcut in the start menu.
- If you are running Windows XP or Vista/W7 with UAC disabled, start the game and the injection will be performed automatically. Otherwise, MAT Automaton will ask you for the location of of your MAT executable (MAT.exe) (e.g. \Program Files\MAT\System\MAT.exe)
- Press END to access the menu.
- Press INSERT to access the console.
- Press NUMPAD 0 to toggle auto aim.
- Press NUMPAD 1 to toggle indicator wallhack.
- Press NUMPAD 2 to toggle wireframe wallhack.
- Press NUMPAD 3 to toggle auto firing.
- The scripts are located in the directory "Scripts" accessible from the installation path and in the profile application data path "%AppData%\MAT Automaton\Scripts".
- For an introduction to Python refer to The Python Tutorial
- For a reference on the Unreal Engine refer to Unreal Wiki
I would love to see others contribute scripts, as the goal of this project is to see what types of creative things people come up with.
Here is a snippet of the included script, just to whet your appetite:

That up-to-no-good wizard Malabruno hates books, and he's even gone so far as to lock up and hide the famous storyteller Don Quixote deep inside Story Castle. Dora, magically transforming herself into a brave night, starts on a royal rescue mission to free him from the clutches of the evil wizard. Join the adventure with Dora and friends. Print and assemble the games pieces so you all can give Don Quixote a royal reception home. Along the way you'll have to make it past the cave, windmills, and the locked gate. Collecting all six books will gain you entrance into Story Castle. Let's start on the knightly quest.
Watch Dora every day on Nick Jr.
Print out the game Board and game pieces on card stock or heavy weight paper.
Follow the instructions on the game board to assemble it. Fold the cave, windmills, gate, and castle pieces in half and then fold up along the solid base line. Apply glue in between the printable and at the base and affix where noted on the game board.

 Fold the storybook cards in half and apply glue to create double-sided cards. Place each set on the game board where indicated.
To create the spinner, simply punch holes where indicated, line the holes up and connect the two pieces with a brad fastner.
Cut the pieces along the dotted lines. Fold up along the solid line at the base of each character. Fold the character in half to create a double-sided game piece, apply glue, and firmly press both sides together. Be careful not to apply glue to the base.
Have each player select a game piece and place on or around the start mark. Determine who will go first starting from youngest to oldest. Each player will then spin the spinner and move their piece by matching colors. Players will move their piece to the color on the board that is nearest to their game piece. When they pass a book, they can collect the book card. The first to collect all six books and land on the last game board square (by spinning on the color pink), will win the game! Watch out for Malambruno, who will try to stop players along the way!

I saw "How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying" again last night. ( I've seen "The Book of Mormon" twice, too…and it only officially opened March 24th.)
What can I say. I like reruns.
I'm the same with books and movies and TV shows: if I like something, I can watch it again and again and again.
It's not that I don't like new things…quite the contrary. But let's face it. The first time you see anything, you're busy absorbing the plot and the characters and — if it's a musical like "Mormon" or "How to Succeed" — the score, and deciding if you like it.
In subsequent readings or viewings, you already know you like it. Now you can take the time to notice all the little nuances that make you like it.
You can peek behind the curtain. Get a glimpse of the wizard in books or shows that you love. (It's not a wizard in ones that you hate — more like a troll.)
Wizards. Trolls. Hey — it might be a good time to re-watch the "Harry Potter" films!

Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
A Springs man was accosted by three suspects while on the way to a friend's apartment early Saturday morning.
The three men approached the victim in the parking lot of the Grandview Apartments on 2500 E. Pikes Peak around 4:30 a.m. One of the suspects pulled out a gun and ordered the victim to empty his pockets. After taking several personal items, the men drove off.
The victim went to a nearby 7-Eleven and called police. He was uninjured in the encounter.
Police describe the suspects as black men in their 20s, all about 6 feet tall or an inch under, medium builds. They were dressed in dark clothing and wearing hoodies. They may have left the scene in a gold 4-door vehicle. It's unknown which way they went.
If anyone has information on this crime, call police at 444-7000 or Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

A public hearing is scheduled for tonight at 6 p.m. in the council chambers at City Hall to hear proposed plans for the development of a 1.1-acre lot adjacent to Iola Roberts Elementary School, which was once an overflow area for new Miller Sutherlin Auto Mall automobiles and trucks. The car dealership closed its doors in 2009.
Local developer Jeff Jones with Riverbank Properties LLC said he wants to build a $1.5-$1.7 million retail center on the property for four to five businesses.
Riverbank Properties LLC is requesting that the property be rezoned from R-1, a low density residential district, to B-2, general business district.
Jones said the development will look much better than the house where a "non-taxpaying vagrant" was living.
Jones recently had the house torn down and the lot cleared. Trees were left along the backside of the property, which fronts U.S. 231, or Martin Street, at the Ninth Street intersection.
Pell City attorney Billy Church, who represents Riverbank Properties LLC, told the council at a Thursday work session that the former automobile dealership, which went out of business in 2009, used the lot commercially for 30 years, apparently without proper zoning.
"Never did anyone object to it being a car lot," Church said. "This will be more desirable than a car lot."
Jones said he understands some of the concerns from residents in the Oak Ridge community, but he has offered to nicely landscape the backside of the development.
He said the property in question is identified in the city's Comprehensive Growth Plan, which was adopted Oct. 9, 2001, as commercial property. Jones said he is just seeking the proper zoning for the property.
He said the Planning and Zoning Board rejected Riverbank Properties' rezoning request by a 3-2 vote, even though the board staff recommended approval.
Councilwoman Dot Wood, who represents the Oak Ridge community, said most of the residents there oppose rezoning of the property, but she has had a couple of residents tell her they were not opposed.
This is not the first request for the commercial rezoning of the property. In 2010, the former owner of the property requested that the property be rezoned B-2 for a new national chain automobile parts store. The Planning and Zoning Board approved the request, but it died when it reached the council.
At the Jan. 25, 2010, council meeting, Councilman Donnie Todd made a motion to rezone the property, but it died for lack of a second.
Wood said residents have the same objections to the rezoning request as they did in 2010.
She said the biggest concern from residents is safety with the increased traffic near Iola Roberts Elementary School and in their neighborhood.
Jones said his new development would have an exit, away from the school, where people doing business in the new development would exit north of the Ninth Street intersection, if they were traveling north on U.S. 231.
Wood said residents also worry that if the city rezones the property, other adjacent property owners will also seek to rezone their property for commercial use.
In 2010, Wood said the rezoning of the property would amount to "spot zoning" because all land connected to the property is zoned residential.

Too much staticPros: none Cons: can barely hear any volume over the static. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Amazing So Far - I use it all the time!Pros: Overall, this is an awesome product. The price I purchased it at was low, but the quality is high. I've only owned it a few months, but so far it's held up through my abuses. I've dropped it a few times and it works just like it did when I first got it. Cons: The only problem I had wasn't really a problem for me because I didn't buy this with the intent of using it to do hands-free calls. The FlexSMART has Bluetooth capability for accepting calls and broadcasting it to the FM channel of your choice (with very limited range of course). However I didn't find this very useful for several reasons: Other Thoughts: I would say the product is worth about $40 including tax, shipping ,etc (meaning I would not pay more than that for this product). I got it for pennies under $40 with a promo code, so it was worth it for me. :) Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: Works as it says Cons: No problems Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: Great sound through bluetooth from the phone to the radio. Cons: Volume on the GOgroove had to be at near MAX in order to transmit the signal and be heard over the radio even though all the phone sound volumes were at the max. Did you find this review helpful? |
Ok when it workedPros: Cheaper than a new car radio Cons: The sound isn't that great. The bass has to be adjusted on the radio and the volume lowered on my iPhone to get decent quality sound. That aside, I bought the device on 10/3 and it broke on 10/23. It doesn't power on. It's going to cost me $11 to send it back to Newegg. Let's hope the second one works for more than 3 weeks.

BestPros: Bluetooth is easy, Hands free calling, Quality is great. Cons: Price is on the high side Other Thoughts: Overall compared to the 50$ piece of junk I returned to sprawlmart because it shut it self off repeatedly on the drive home from buying it this unit is the one to go with. Did you find this review helpful? |
Awesome device.Pros: Does exactly what it says. Bluetooth works well and the FM signal is strong and clear on just about any channel you choose. Cons: the design is strange. the rotary dial for tuning is unnecessary. it makes the buttons awkward to push but that is the character of this device. the x3 seems to have solved this. Did you find this review helpful? |
Sounds Great and Easy to UsePros: I can stream music from my Blackberry (via Pandora) to my car's audio system. Plus, I can use my BB's phone hands free. Cons: None. Did you find this review helpful? |
works, but noisyPros: it does make and receive calls. Mic seems to be clear - those on the other end of the call can hear the driver speaking. Cons: lots of noise on audio. Good enough for phone calls if the car interior isn't too loud, but IMO it's not good for listening to music from your phone. Other Thoughts: If you're listening to a station or a CD, and a call comes in, you have to tune the radio to the FlexSmart. Setting a pre-set helps, but it's still an extra step besides hitting the "answer" button, or an extra 2 steps if you're listening to a CD or have a DVD going (like in our case - a minivan with rear entertainment system). not a con really, but just a note as the marketing material conveniently skips this info. Did you find this review helpful? |
Awesome technology!Pros: I just bought this in time for a 2500 mile road trip and love it. It worked flawlessly from Colorado to DC and back. I paired it with my Galaxy Note II and used it for music, phone calls and GPS driving directions. Cons: None Other Thoughts: This device adds all the functionality of a high-end vehicle hands-free system without any installation. It's portable when you travel and makes you a safer driver every time you use it. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

2. Purchase the fabric and one large roll of stitch witchery. Head to the nearest fabric store and take your pick. Ask a store clerk for help calculating how much yardage you'll need.
3. Cut the fabric. Using your window's measurements, cut the fabric into two equal-sized panels. Note: You'll be "hemming" both the top and the bottom part of the panel, so account for one inch on both ends.
4. Iron the Stitch Witchery. Prepare the iron and place a thin, damp cloth between the iron and the curtain panel, to ensure the fabric does not burn. Insert the Stitch Witchery inside the seam and press down with the iron for 10 seconds in one spot. Slowly move around the entire panel until the Stitch Witchery holds the seams together.
5. Hang the curtain. Hang the panel on the curtain rod using drapery clip rings (spaced about four inches apart).
Paint a Room
Breathe new life into a room by giving it a fresh paint job. This requires paint, spackling paste, plastic, painter's tape, paint brushes, and a paint roller. Jackie Jordan, director of color marketing for Sherwin-Williams, lays out the steps:
1. Pick a paint color. The simplest way to find inspiration is to pull from something that already exists in the room. Consider a hue that complements the carpet color or the shade of the wood floor. You can also match the walls to the furniture's upholstery.
2. Buy the paint. Paints range from economical to high-end. If the room gets a lot of traffic or you have kids that could get fingerprints or food on the walls, opt for a high-end paint so that the walls can be easily cleaned.
3. Assemble the tools. The paint store's clerks can advise you on exactly what brushes and roller covers you'll need.
4. Prep the surface. The surface you're painting has to be clean, dull, and dry. If there are fingerprints or cooking oils on the walls, they must be cleaned. Use spackling paste to patch up any holes or cracks in the wall. If your wall was previously painted with a semi-gloss and you're going for a flat finish, make sure the surface is dull so that the new paint adheres to the existing paint. Wait for the wall to dry before applying the new paint. Also, cover any furniture in the room with plastic.
5. Trim the room. Use painter's tape to line the ceiling, base boards, windows, and light fixtures.
6. Apply the paint. Roll and brush the paint onto the walls. Let the paint dry before removing the trim.

able to play the mp4 file using Gstreamer pipelines under the same.
can anyone help me whats going wrong incase of Openmax hardware plugins ?any help is appreciated.
The simplest reason would be that you don't have the correct permissions for /dev/mem. Are you running the app as "root"? It could be that you are not and only "root" has the necessary permissions.
- Rob
I am working on android platform. I have run the application as root user(#su root). I have given full permission to /dev/mem but getting the same messages.
Any suggestion would be very appreciated.
After changing the permission, Its working.
What `permission' you've changed, could you give me some tips?
I have run the application as root user(#su root) and given full permission to /dev/mem.
Got it.
And I figured out my question:
Early kernel let userspace utils read&write physical memroy via mmap and /dev/mem.
but it changed to be strict, if sudo cat /dev/mem > mem, only 1M.
CONFIG_X86_PAT and CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM are defaultly set to `y'.
Get to `n' then recompile, works again.
I am facing the same issue. I have checked my config file, the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is set to n. But I still have no luck getting an application to work with /dev/mem
I wrote a user space C native program which can access /dev/mem, but when I put the same code into JNI it says " Failed to open /dev/mem: 'Operation not permitted'"
Since there are at least two members who got this to work, would someone explain how you managed to run an application as root to get /dev/mem working?
Does it require modifying the application JAVA source code to gain root permissions? Thanks

Five people, including two young children, are dead after a car accident in Queens early Sunday. NY1's Tara Lynn Wagner filed the following report.
Residents near Atlantic Avenue and the Van Wyck Expressway in Jamaica woke to a gruesome scene Sunday morning.
"All I saw was bodies and blankets covered," said one witness.
Police said eight people were in a black Mercedes SUV driving east on Atlantic Avenue when it swiped a concrete stanchion, rolled over and burst into flames.
Three adult women, an 8-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy were killed.
Residents say cars are often traveling along the stretch of road in question at high speeds as they come off the highway.
"Especially at night, when it's empty," said one resident. "They zoom through here and you hear the tires squeezing from inside the house."
Sources said speed may have been a factor in the crash. Cameras near the scene may provide some clues.
The three people who survived the crash were taken to Jamaica Hospital, including a 7-year-old boy and the 45-year-old woman who was behind the wheel.
Visitors here say all eight victims were members of the same family who had attended a party Saturday night, an annual reunion for members of the Ibo tribe in Nigeria.
The accident is frighteningly similar to a single-car accident that claimed the lives of seven family members in the Bronx in April.
Three generations of a family died in a crash when their SUV plunged more than 50 feet off the Bronx River Parkway and into a ravine on the grounds of the Bronx Zoo.
The SUV landed on its roof, killing all seven people aboard, including three children.
Authorities said speed was a factor in that crash.

HOUGHTON -- A benefit bake sale will be held at the Rozsa Center Friday evening to raise money for Ana Olsson and her family.
Ana is a four year old from Hancock, diagnosed with a rare brain tumor earlier in the fall.
The event will take place from 7 to 10 p.m. in the lobby of the Rozsa. Baked goods will be sold, and there will also be a silent auction. There will be a children's dance theater production of "The Night Before Christmas" with five dollars from each ticket going directly to the Olsson family.
"We have children," said Bethany Jones, marketing manager at the Rozsa Center. "From our hearts, we look to our own families at this time, and when we heard about it and when Joyce and Michelle approached us, we immediately said, 'Yes.' This is the right thing to do."
One hundred percent of the proceeds from the bake sale and silent auction will go to the Olssons.
Some of the items being auctioned off include a signed Packers football and a signed Red Wings hockey puck.

Friday morning, a Connecticut school for young children was turned into a living hell.
It had been a place of innocence, a haven where boys and girls learned, laughed and played.
Now, it was a place of shock and sorrow, a grisly crime scene.
The shooting spree at Sandy Hook Elementary shattered sleepy Newtown and it shattered America's notions of what constitutes a safe place.
It happened just days after a gunman shot three people, killing two of them, at an Oregon mall filled with Christmas shoppers. For three days that place also became a crime scene.
Earlier this summer, another place, a movie theater in Colorado was also marked a crime scene after a gunman shot 12 people to death at a screening of the newest Batman movie
There have been other recent slaughters that have rattled America including one at an Arizona shopping center where people came to meet Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
These are not places of darkness. They are not places where people expect the worst of mankind to surface.
"There really is no safe place. That is just our imagination," said Daniela Schreier, a forensic and clinical psychologist at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. And what is perceived as safe seems to be shrinking after a spate of high-profile crimes.
Places like the Newtown school are part of an assumptive world, said psychologist Robin Gurwitch of Duke University Medical Center. They are places where people take their safety for granted.
"Events like the Connecticut school shooting shatter that notion and we are left reeling." Gurwitch said. "What we held as our ideal has now been turned upside down."
Even President Barack Obama wiped away tears and paused to collect himself Friday as he spoke of "beautiful little children" killed Friday.
"Our hearts," he said, "are broken today.
"We've endured too many of these tragedies in the past few years and each time I learn the news, I react not as a president, but as anybody else would, as a parent," Obama said. "And that was especially true today. I know there's not a parent in America who doesn't feel the same overwhelming grief that I do."
Or feel anxiety over having to send their children back to school on Monday.
It's not that violence has not occurred in elementary schools before.
In 1989, a 24-year-old drifter aimed his AK-47 and killed five children on an elementary school playground in California. As far back as 1959, a convict exploded a suitcase of dynamite on a school playground in Houston and killed five people, including three children.
But the school shootings that have made recent headlines, starting with Columbine in 1999, have mainly occurred at high schools. The fact that the Connecticut shootings, one of the deadliest in U.S. history, involved such young children makes the tragedy that much harder to fathom, Gurwitch said.
"We begin to think: Is it safe to even step outside?" Gurwitch said.
Some people deal with that potentially debilitating thought with denial -- that this sort of thing happens in Connecticut or in Oregon or in Colorado but it can never happen where they are.

Psychology is the study of the mind and mental processes, especially in relation to behavior.
Psychotherapy is treatment based on talking to another person who is objective, sympathetic and non-judgmental. Under these circumstances it is possible to talk about what are sometimes very painful issues or life challenges. By sharing these issues and learning more about them, it is possible to gain the strength and understanding to deal with them more effectively and gain ascendency over them.
Psychotherapists may use a combination of techniques to address issues such as:
Anger management
Anxiety and depression
Divorce and relationship break-up
Eating disorders
Financial problems and redundancy
General well-being
Loss and bereavement
Lack of motivation
Low self-esteem
Physical, emotional or sexual abuse
Sexual problems
Psychologists are experts in psychology and are usually categorised under a number of mental health professions such as clinical and counseling psychologists. Psychologists can only use talk therapy as treatment; you must see a psychiatrist or other medical doctor to be treated with medication.

Lately I've found myself drawn more and more to out of the way backwater places that no one else pays much attention to, and less and less to the big world famous reservoir practically out the back door. I guess there just seem to be too many people, and I'd like to get away from them, even if it means catching tiny fish of questionable genetic heritage out of pot holes and ditches.
I finally got around to trying out a stream (this is a charitable label) near my in-laws' home in the northeast corner of Alabama. This thing is practically a ditch. It drains a small cove branching north off from the main Tennessee Valley before petering out just south of the Tennessee line. But it does manage to flow year round, and I'd heard of someone at some point in the murky past actually fishing it, but, and this is important, I'd never heard of anyone actually catching anything out of it. So, I didn't have very high expectations.
I showed up with a beat up old spinning rod and a pack of what I thought were 6″ plastic curly tail worms. Turns out they were actually 10″ versions. This lowered my expectations even further, figuring such a large lure would send any fish present scurrying for cover, certain they were about to be swallowed by a big cottonmouth.
The water was low and clear, highly unusual for April. Which reminds me, what the heck is up with the weather?! We've been consistently in the 80s since the beginning of March, and rain has been scarce. I had grown accustomed to below freezing weather well into April the last several years. I've never seen anything like this Spring. It's not unusual for Alabama to experience some warm weather as early as February, but it never holds on consistently until late April or March, and there's always plenty of rain. Not this year. I sincerely hope this isn't a sign of what Summer will be like.
Anyway, I tossed the huge plastic worm around the 10′ wide creek for awhile and was surprised, nay, shocked when I felt a telltale bump and the line took off sideways. I set the hook and brought a hefty redeye bass to hand (at least that's what I think it was – actually looked like the hapless offspring of a mass orgy of various basses and sunfishes, but I'm no biologist). The thing was fat as a pig and put up a pretty good battle. I missed several more fish afterward, and figured the size of the lure was to blame for the poor hookup ratio. Couldn't have been rusty hook setting skills…
This episode set me to thinking. This little creek runs for several miles in either direction from where I was standing, eventually petering out to nothing upstream and dumping into the main Tennessee River downstream. It even looked somewhat wadeable (a rarity in this part of Alabama), and I could certainly float it in my kayak (dragging it over the occasional obstructions). I'm convinced almost no one else would consider "wasting" their time on it. Heck, I'm a small stream guy, and I took years to drag myself down there and try it out. I think portions of it would make pretty good fly fishing water, which is a huge bonus. Just thinking about it made me supremely happy. I think that maybe so long as there are unloved little backwaters like this to explore, then things might actually still be okay with the world. Not perfect, for sure, but just maybe not as bad as watching cable news would have you believe.
