By Garren Shipley -- Daily Staff Writer
It's a long way from Central High School to Kabul, Afghanistan.
But for Lt. Gen. Benjamin C. Freakley, it's a journey that began with a desire to serve and continues to this day.
Freakley, now the commanding general of the U.S. Army's Accessions Command, became interested in military service at an early age.
"I just fell in love with being a soldier," he said. That early interest led him to West Point, where he received his commission in 1975.
It's a decision that his time overseas in places from Germany to Afghanistan has reinforced.
"I love our country," he said. "I think anybody that's ever been a day or two out of America in any other country [has more] respect for what America stands for for the opportunities that our founding fathers created, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution."
The U.S. "really gives all people who live on our shores the phenomenal opportunity to achieve their potential as a human being," he said.
That liberty and opportunity is something Freakley has fought for in three separate campaigns.
During the first Gulf War in 1991, Freakley was a major responsible in part for drafting the war plan that saw coalition ground forces sweep Iraqi troops from Kuwait in just 100 hours.
"I wrote the battle plan, and during the attack I was coordinating the activities between ... artillery and armor units," he said. "It was four days, and then we stayed up in Iraq for 10 more days."
But it wasn't all flash and action. Operation Desert Storm was preceded by Operation Desert Shield. Coalition forces sat for more than half a year in the Saudi desert waiting on the order to head north.
"We were in the desert for seven months. It was very hard on the soldiers to be in 130-degree heat, eating the same food" day after day, he said.
Victory in 1991 is one of Freakley's enduring memories of war.
"We started marching out of Iraq back to Kuwait. We had a couple of thousand vehicles in our brigade. I don't know where the soldiers got them, but they tied American flags to the antennas," he said.
The job was done, and they were all going home.
"It was a sea of American flags, it was an enormously emotional experience to see all that," he said.
Freakley wasn't done in Iraq, though.
In 2003, he was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division as assistant division commander and assistant to Maj. Gen. David Petraeus who would later be the architect of the successful "surge" strategy in Iraq.
This time, U.S. forces faced not isolated desert warfare among the dunes, but street-to-street fighting in dense urban settings.
"We started fighting in Najaf, then we fought in Hillah, then we fought in Baghdad," he said. "We went across the breadth of Iraq."
After spending two years as the commandant of the U.S. Army Infantry School, Freakley was placed in command of the 10th Mountain Division in Afghanistan in 2005.
Then in February 2006, he was the commander on the ground of all U.S. and coalition forces operating in the country, a post he held for a year before being promoted and placed in charge of Accessions Command.
Generals don't often pull triggers or drop bombs, but they carry the burden of knowing that if they make a mistake, a large number of the soldiers under their command may not come back at the end of the day.
"It's a huge responsibility. Any commander knows that the decision he's making will affect the lives of his own soldiers, and it'll affect the lives of the people where you're fighting," he said. "Taking a life is an enormous responsibility, and most soldiers don't take it lightly when they fight the enemy."
Sending fellow soldiers into harm's way is another enduring memory of war.
"In combat, one night we put in about 2,500 soldiers on a mission in Afghanistan," he said. "That was a long night."
"The next morning, to realize everybody was on their objective, all the helicopters put in" was a great relief, Freakley said.
Even for the generals standing over the maps and computer screens, there's nothing glamorous or glorious about combat.
"[Civil War Gen. William T.] Sherman had it right war is hell," Freakley said. "There's nothing romantic about fighting. It's hard work."
That's what makes the men and women who have served under his command so extraordinary, he added.
"They're resilient in the fight. They're strong physically, they're strong emotionally, they're strong spiritually. The American solider is a very strong human being, that woman or man out there."
Freakley credits that to the support they get back home.
"They come from strong families," he said. That's something Freakley has seen in his own hometown.
Following the death of fellow Central High School graduate Pfc. Thomas Wilson, of Woodstock, in Afghanistan in 2007, Freakley met his family and friends.
Meeting these "these incredibly strong families that stand behind their soldiers" was a moving experience.
It also underscores the burden of command.
"In combat as a commander you have to try and be as good as you can possibly be," Freakley said. "There's no day not to be your very best."
It's not a burden that commanders bear alone. From other generals all the way down to the lieutenants, sergeants and corporals, leadership is a team effort.
"Yes, it's challenge, and it's an enormous responsibility, but you also know that you have a terrific team that's undertaking this challenge with you," he said.
"I know that I have to be as good as I can be, I have to work hard, study our profession. Listen to my superiors, and to my subordinates, think hard about the problems that face us," he said.

hidden partition
I had installed for the first time Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit.
As I know this software is creating a hidden partition of 100 MB.
I wish to know if such a partition is saved on the hard-disk.
According to the Disk Management, as shown in the attached image, there is no partition shown.
In case the Disk Management does not show the reality, what kind of software are you recommending me to use in order to get access to this partition?
Thank you.
|My System Specs
|25 Mar 2013
Hello ddm and welcome to Seven Forums.
The 100MB partition contains boot files and recovery information. It isn't always created, particularly if the hard drive is pre-formatted and pre-partitioned. Under that scenario the boot files and recovery info are contained in the C: partition. These previous forum threads discuss the 100MB partition in more detail, including how to remove it and still be able to boot the computer:
Way to get rid of the 100MB partition
|My System Specs
|25 Mar 2013
Thank you for your answer.
One more question,
Three primary Partitions on the same drive, of which i only use C: as my system, and the others for Programs, Games etc. can have any impact on performance or can damage the harddrive or the computer?
|My System Specs
|25 Mar 2013
As I understand things, there can be four primary partitions. One of them can be an extended partition, which can contain any number of logical partitions. To tell the difference between the different partitions, Disk Management color codes them. Primary partitions have a dark blue border. An extended partition has a green border. Logical drives within a primary partition have a light blue border. You shouldn't see any noticeable decrease in performance and there should be no damage or other issues to the hard drive. This older Forum thread discusses partition differences in a bit more detail.
Difference between Primary, Extended, Logical Partition
One caution, though. If the hard drive ever fails, you could lose everything if you don't have suitable data backups and/or system images.
|My System Specs
|25 Mar 2013
Win7 x 6 PC's
In addition to this excellent information provided, I'd suggest you not install programs or games to another partition as they install themselves into the registry to become a part of the OS until uninstalled so should remain with the OS.
A more common use of another partition is for data, so that the OS partition remains smaller for imaging purposes and your data is safe and current in its own partition if Windows 7 becomes irreparable and must be reimaged.
Data can be linked by moving the active User folders to the data partition, however this forces its inclusion in the image so defeats that purpose. So another method is to copy the active User folders to the data partition to link to the related Library - Include a Folder - Windows 7 Forums, then delete the content of the User folder on C while keeping it in the Library to see if anything lands there.

Maggiano's Little Italy - Tysons Corner

We had our rehearsal dinner of about 30 people for our August 2014 wedding. Food was amazing and the staff kept our drinks full. I wish they had provided a little nicer centerpieces but overall we had a good experience. Was a little pricey when all said and done but the food was good and they packaged up all leftover for us which was really nice

We hosted our rehearsal dinner at Maggiano's for 34 people. Planning the rehearsal dinner was really easy. The family-style dinning was an ideal set-up for a rehearsal dinner. Everyone raved about the food and no one walked away hungry. My only issue was that our dinner was scheduled to start at 7:30 pm and I had expected that the meal would start to be served shortly after that. But it didn't come out until 8 pm. It also took quite awhile for dessert to come out after the main course, at which point it was getting quite late in the evening.

We had our rehearsal dinner at Maggiano's at Tysons II for about 60 people. It was one of the easiest things I had to plan and not stressful whatsoever. I did everything by email, the coordinators respond very quickly and make it so easy for you. The menu was GREAT, the room setup was beautiful, and the staff was very attentive. I would love to have another event at Maggiano's and would definitely recommend this vendor.

I would highly recommend Maggiano's to anyone looking for a small to mid-size venue. We had 150 people at our cocktail reception and the space was perfect! The staff was easy and helpful from booking to the day of the wedding. And of course, the food was spectacular.

I wish I could give Maggiano's 6 stars for everything. I couldn't have been happier with anything. I was hesitant at first to book my wedding reception at a restaurant, but I am absolutely convinced that it was the way to go. Weddings in DC can be so expensive, but Maggiano's kept the prices reasonable, delivered outstanding food, service, and decor. They were easy to work with and even made sure that all of my vendors were in line. I would absolutely recommend them for either your rehearsal dinner or your reception itself.

Maggiano's helped create my picture perfect wedding! From the first time my (now) husband, parents and I met with Andrea Busch and looked at the ballroom we knew it was right.
My husband is a vegetarian and I am not, Andrea was willing to work with us to create a menu that would appeal to all of our guests and still accommodate our vegetarian guests! The food was incredible, all of our guests ranted and raved about the presentation, the quantity and of course the quality of the food. We were hesitant to do a family style dinner due to previous wedding's we've been to, but the staff at Maggiano's ensured all our guests had plenty of time to eat before bringing out the next course or clearing away the table.
Andrea and her team had our reception set up beautifully, and ran everything like I fine tuned clock! We can't thank everyone at Maggiano's enough for helping us create the perfect setting for the biggest day in our lives!

I can't be more happy with Maggiano's. Given the quanlity and amount of foods we got, the space we had, the convinient location, and the service, I think no reception venue can beat Maggiano's if your wedding is relatively smaller-sized. I worked with Ali West, but other sales managers also helped me constantly in Ali's absense. They really worked like a team. The captain Sean was a pleasure to work with as well. Ali was amazoningly efficient. She was always in a hurry, yet she didn't forget anything we told her. She was very flexible in terms of setup, timing of service, equipment, and even agreed to trade a dessert for a side in the menu. She made excellent suggestions on the food as well! We had a bar, a champagne toast, unlimited ice tea, hot tea & coffee, and a delicious 7-course family style lunch. We brought in our wedding cake and they cut it without any cake cutting fee. They even packed all the leftover foods for us. With all these, our per guest cost was under $30!!!! I call that AMAZING!

They were great, the food was amazing. Over 30 of my 100 guest actually said it was the best wedding and food they have ever been to! They were super nice, worked with a time schedule change and took care of decorating the room and everything. It was like having a reception planner built in with the package. Super affordable and way worth every penny. We love Andrea -she was the greatest!

Fabulous. Maggiano's provided a great backdrop for our reception. The only problem we had was that I scheduled the venue for 6PM (following a 5PM wedding). Who knew Lutheran services were so short. Guests arrived at Maggiano's at 5:30 and the facility was not ready for them. They were kept waiting until I could at least get them into the bar area. After that, everything went smoothly. the wedding cake, part of the package, was superb. The food was plentiful and delicious. Our guests danced all night long.

Maggiano's Little Italy was the PERFECT place for my wedding reception. I fed almost 200 people. It was an eight course sit down dinner (family style which means unlimited). It provide the benefits of a buffet but the intimacy of a sit down dinner. The waiters and their staff were curtious and professional. The food was amazing. Because it is a restaurant you don't pay the rental cost for the space. The banquet hall was amazingly romantic. Everyone of my guest raved that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Thanks Maggiano's

Ali West was the best special events planner; she made me feel like I had my own wedding coordinator. Every time I called or emailed, she was upbeat and always willing to help. Shawn (the head waiter) made things the day of go smoothly and the wait staff were pleasant and friendly. The reception venue was beautiful and many people complimented me on the food. I was stunned at how beautiful the banquet halls were set up for my wedding reception and highly recommend Maggiano's.

We had our wedding reception luncheon at Maggiano's Little Italy - Tysons Corner and we received a lot of compliments about it, good food and great services. Ali was our banquet manager, she was very helpful and was able to accommodate our requests and needs. She was great to work with and gave us a lot of good advice. We had the family style buffet and our own private bar in the room, everything was perfect, nice ambient, great location, delicious food, friendly staff. It is the best venue choice if you are looking for a lovely intimate wedding.

We held our wedding reception at Maggianos at Tysons Galleria. We worked with Ali and she was the best! Very responsive to my numerous emails and made time to meet with me a couple of times before the wedding. Our food/beverage minimum was $800 and since we met it, we didn't have to pay additional for the banquet rooms. It was an excellent deal! The food was wonderful, everyone loved it. They even help you set up the centerpieces, escort table, etc. A+++!!

|Memo - Week of
Oct. 4 - Strategies of Enticement
With this week's readings, we turn our attention to the most conspicuous--some would say most notorious--of the institutions involved in "brokering" the consumer capitalist economy: advertising. In class, we will discuss the history of advertising and how the business of advertising changed in the early decades of the twentieth century. The readings take a more personal look at advertising, focusing on the experiences, motivations, assumptions, goals, and strategies of those who designed advertising campaigns, whose job it was to excite new desires to spend and consume.
The first reading comes from the 1965 autobiography of Edwards Bernays (1891-1995), a.k.a. the "father of public relations." He was not a professional advertising man, but rather he occasionally served as a consultant to advertising agencies and product manufacturers. At other times he advised governments, politicians, diplomats, and a wide range of other individuals and institutions.) Born in Vienna, Bernays was also, interestingly enough, the nephew of Sigmund Freud. During World War I he served on the board of the Committee on Public Information (CPI), which was the wartime propaganda bureau of the U.S. government, and throughout his career, he showed remarkable sensitivity to the potential of advertising and public relations to function as instruments of psychological manipulation.
The second reading consists of an excerpt from James Rorty's 1934 book Our Master's Voice: Advertising. Rorty (1890-1973) was an American-born socialist who worked for an extended period in advertising, and this book is both a profile of the advertising business and a social and cultural critique of advertising's place in American life. He was also the father of Richard Rorty, one of the leading American philosophers of the postwar era.

Pain in breast after submuscular augmentation
- JessicaChapman3190
- virginia
- 4 years ago
I had submucular saline implants put in a week ago. My right breast is very sore almost like a really bad bruise under near the crease of my breast. It is very painful when I lift my arm past a certain point. My left breast feels fine. What could be the problem. My surgeon gave me medication for nerve pain but so far that has not seemed to work. im worried I might have a blood clot or hematoma although there is no dicloeration or bruising. Please help!

I have pain on side of my left breast after breast augmentation. I have pain on side of my left breast after breast augmentation. I had smooth high profile implants. Everything looks normal, no bruising. Feels as if there is a bruise that is being pushed on. It has only been 8 days since surgery, I feel no pain anywhere else, and no pain in right breast. Just trying to figure out if this is normal.

Rod Boone from Newsday interviewed Doc Rivers on the Paul Pierce/Kevin Garnett trade, and Doc had some nice things, again, to say about his former players.
With Paul, Doc believed that the trade to the Nets would "rejuvenate his career."
There are tons of good quotes in the article, but here are some highlights:
"Brooklyn is trying to win it. They got that, so it's a win-win for both teams. The tough part of that trade was Paul. That's tough because he was a Celtic. Kevin was kind of from Minnesota and the other guy, Jason, had been there one year. But Paul, that was a tough one."
"I think (the Nets) will come together. Listen, anything comes together when a lot of people want it to come together, and they have a lot of guys that want it to come together. Paul, Jason and Kevin want to win another title and everyone else wants to win their first. So, if they all want to do that, then it all will work out."

Chevron Baby Blanket
If you lived through the 60s and 70s perhaps you have vivid memories of a chevron afghan. Perhaps you appreciated it at the time; were indifferent to it in the 80s; despised it in the 90s; and have developed a deep affection for it over the past decade, itchy acrylic, zany colors and all!
This knitted Chevron Baby Blanket makes some accommodations both for modernity and for babies. Instead of hard-to-cuddle acrylic, this 100% cotton blanket is as deep and soft and cozy as a cloud. And instead of fast food orange and kitchen appliance avocado, this version is a delicate spectrum of natural colors just right for babies!
The next generation of chevron blankets starts with Blue Sky Cotton. Loosely spun into a uniquely cozy cotton, this is one of our very favorite baby blanket yarns. For delicate skin, it's non-allergenic cotton, and for busy parents, it's machine washable (yay!).
The Materials
- 7 skeins of Blue Sky's Worsted Cotton, 100% cotton
- A US #11, 24 or 32 inch circular needle
Get all 7 skein of Worsted Cotton in one place with our Yarn for Chevron Baby Blanket kit. It comes in two pretty colorways:
These colors, from the top, are Lemongrass, Lemonade, Bone, Tulip, Drift, Sleet, and Graphite.
These colors, from the top, are Indigo, Mediterranean, Caribbean, Tulip, Drift, Sleet and Ash.
The Pattern
3 stitches = 1 inch in garter stitch with yarn doubled
Finished Size
26 x 33 inches
For this pattern you'll use the Blue Sky Cotton doubled. The best way to double yarn is to pull one strand from the inside of the ball and one strand from the outside. If you don't have a swift and ball winder to wind a center-pull ball, never fear, you can do it by hand! Click here for a great video that shows you how!
If you want to change the sizing or use this stitch pattern for a different project, just cast on a multiple of 14 plus 2 stitches.
With the Lemongrass (doubled!), cast on 100 stitches. (Try not to leave too long a tail when you cast on. You'll probably need the entire skein to finish the first stripe. If you end up one row short at this point, don't worry! No one will notice!)
**Row 1 (right side): K1, ssk, *k10, k2tog, ssk, repeat from * to last 13 stitches, k10, k2tog, k1. (86 stitches)
Row 2 (wrong side): K6, *knit into front and back (kfb) 2 times, k10, repeat from * to last 8 stitches, kfb 2 times, k6. (100 stitches)
Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until you have knit the entire skein (which should be nine more times).***
Change to the Lemonade color and repeat from ** to ***.
Knit until the skein runs out, making sure to end on the same side you finished the Dark Chocolate. In other words, all of the tails (except, perhaps, the cast on tail) will be along the same selvage, and the first row of every color will be on the "right side" of the blanket and you will end each color on the "wrong side".
- See more at: http://www.purlbee.com/2013/01/06/whits-knits-super-easy-lap-blanket/#sthash.egI5gAaD.dpuf
Change to the Bone color and repeat from ** to ***.
Knit until the skein runs out, making sure to end on the same side you finished the Dark Chocolate. In other words, all of the tails (except, perhaps, the cast on tail) will be along the same selvage, and the first row of every color will be on the "right side" of the blanket and you will end each color on the "wrong side".

Make sure to end the third color (Bone) on the same side you finished the second color (Lemonade). In other words, all of the tails (except, perhaps, the cast on tail) will be along the same selvage, and the first row of every color will be on the "right side" of the blanket and you will end each color on the "wrong side".
Continue in this pattern for the next three colors, ending each skein with a wrong side row and changing colors on the right side. The next color will be Tulip, followed by Drift, and then Sleet.
For the final color (Graphite), repeat Rows 1 and 2 until you have about 8 yards of yarn left (or nine times). Work Row 1 one more time.
Bind Off Row: Bind off 5 stitches, *(knit into the next stitch and leave the stitch on the left needle, bind off 1 stitch, knit into the back of the stitch, let the stitch off the left needle, bind off 1 stitch) 2 times, bind off 10 stitches, repeat from * to last 8 stitches, (knit into the next stitch and leave the stitch on the left needle, bind off 1 stitch, knit into the back of the stitch, let the stitch off the left needle, bind off 1 stitch) 2 times, bind off 6 stitches, pull the yarn through the last stitch.
Weave in the ends and you're all done!

finally finished! 2 sets of yarn, 142 stitches came out to a blanket 36×54!
Do you mind helping with color choice? I am making 2 blankets for boy/girl twins. The color palate for their room is denim, orange and deep red. I would like the blankets to co-ordinate, but also want one to be very much for a girl, and one very much for a boy. Any suggestions? Help! and thanks! I can't get enough of your beautiful web site!
Hi Giannina,
Sure, we love assignments like this! Here's what we came up with for the girl version: True Red, Poppy, Dandelion, Lemonade, Drift, Sleet and Ash. And for the boy: Indigo, Periwinkle, Sky, Drift, Tulip, Dandelion and Poppy.
Or, if you feel like you want to talk in person to someone who has eyes on the yarn, please feel free to call either our New York City store or our California warehouse. This link has the phone numbers and hours: http://www.purlsoho.com/purl/contact
Thanks so much for your question; we're all very excited about twin Chevron Blankets!
I've started this blanket and I'm getting the correct gauge. However, I'm finished with the first skein and have only completed 16 rows (4.5 inches). Do I just continue with the other colors at 16 rows ? Should I add an eighth color? Thanks for your help. Love the pattern.
I am just finishing up my second baby blanket in this pattern (on the last stripe). Per your suggestion I used Thistle, Orchid, Shell and Tulip but I repeated Shell, Orchid and Thistle….It has turned out beautiful……
I am now looking to make another one for my niece and the colors that have been picked for the baby are coral and mint…..Blue Sky Alpaca does not have a good coral. I saw that Spud & Chloe Outer was suggested as a substitute. Outer has the coral but not the mint…… Do you have another suggestion for a yarn to substitute the Blue Sky? Your suggestions are much appreciated…..Thank you!!
Thank you so much, Whitney!! Thanks for the advice and the pattern!! Love it!!
I'm a fairly new knitter and I have had no trouble completing most of this project. I am at the binding off point and I could use some help. I don't want to mess it up after I've done so well! Could someone please explain to me what I am supposed to do in order to bind off? I'm having a little trouble understanding the instructions as like I said I'm fairly new at this! Thank you
I'm almost finished with this blanket for one of my twin g'daughters – used pink parfait, shell, bone, tulip,sleet, orchid and thistle. I'd like to make a second blanket using the same colors but a different pattern. Thinking about the Super Easy Blanket. If I use the same Blue Sky Cotton, and I guess single strand, will I get the gauge recommended for the pattern? Any help much appreciated!
I've finished the first 2 colours of the "Dandelion Kit". Once I got to the 3 colour (Bone) I ran out of yarn on my last (Row 2) row. It says in the description (under "Begin") that if you end up one row short that this is no problem since no one will notice! Well that's not true because you do notice! I continued with "Tulip" and you see the yarn change on the right side of the blanket which is unacceptable. My only option is to either to go back to the very start (which sounds ridiculous)and work 2 less rows per colour in order to end up with even stripes or order another skein of "Bone" to finish the last 50 stiches I had left to do in that colour. I do like the yarn and the pattern but I think it's quite the thrill to work with since you don't really know if you can finish a stripe or not which is disappointing when you learn that you run out of yarn. I had very little yarn left when I completed the first two stripes and by all means I'm not a loose knitter. In my opinion there should be a comfortable amount of yarn to finish a stripe or the pattern should be altered.
I really don't know why but i'm having trouble to get this pattern right. I usually don't have trouble doing other patterns, but for some unknown reason this defeats me. I would really like to make this Chevron pattern . With the 2nd row were it says k6 kfb is that knit into the next stitch twice or is it done over 2 stitches
I have friends with a very specific color palate. Can you help getting me from Pumpkin on one end to Indigo on the other? Pumpkin, Poppy, ?, ?, ?, Mediterranean, Indigo?
Thank you!!
If I were to bind off on Row 1, how will I bind off?
I don't have enough yarn to do Row 1 and bind off on row 2.
Thank you.
I love this blanket and when I am finished I'll post a picture in the blue color.
Which cast on do you recommend?
Hello! I love this pattern, and the sky blue colors are amazing! I see that this is for a baby blanket, what would you recommend for making this larger (adult sized)? double the skeins and make each color twice as wide? Also, could you help me with a color scheme that's more emerald and teal? Thank you!

Spring Breakers has released a new red-band trailer online, and it's not much of an exaggeration to say it's completely batshit crazy.
Soundtracked by thumping beats and James Franco's drawling voiceover, the new trailer is an assault on the senses, all strobe lighting, blazing gun-muzzles and gratuitous bikini shots.
It's as if all those flesh-filled promo posters had been a little tame, and the marketing team have been urged to crank things up a gear. Unsurprisingly, it's rather a lot of fun.
Take a look, below:
The film follows a quartet of co-eds on Spring Break, who find themselves involved in more than the usual combo of heavy drinking and carefree sex when they get themselves entangled with Franco's unhinged drug-dealer.
Directed by Harmony Korine and co-starring Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez and Ashley Benson, Spring Breakers opens in the UK on 5 April 2013.

Hi: 15° Lo:10°
By Nigel Slater Friday 04 January 2013 Updated: 07/01 16:37
POLICE are asking for the public's help to find a missing Evesham man last seen five days ago.
Ben Butler, 27, was last seen at a home in Bromsgrove at 11.15am on Sunday (December 30) before he was due to go shopping and visit another house later in the day.
He was expected to return to the house on Barnsley Hall Drive for 7pm that evening but did not arrive. He is described as 6ft 1 tall of slim build with short dark brown hair and has a tattoo on his right arm.
Before leaving the house Ben was wearing dark blue jeans, a black jacket, light blue hooded top, black shoes and had a small backpack with him.
It is understood Ben is on various medication for health issues and will not have had access to his prescriptions since he went missing.
Ben has been missing before and has been found at various locations across the country. Police believe he may be using public transport to get around.
Anyone with information should contact police at Bromsgrove by calling the non-emergency police number 101 as soon as possible.

There are rumors floating around that new WWE diva Eva Marie has posed nude before, and that has caused thousands of wrestling fans to scour the internet in search of such naked images. However, it turns out that the confusion stems from the fact that Playboy model Eva Hilovski uses the same name on occasions.
Independent wrestler Reby Sky, who recently got married to former WWE star Matt Hardy, is currently doing another photo shoot for Playboy. Her first nude pictorial for the magazine was back in 2007.
Madison Rayne is celebrating her birthday today. The TNA Knockouts Champion is 29 years old now. She has received several birthday wishes on Twitter from wrestlers such as Traci Brooks, Karen Jarrett, Angelina Love and others.
Wrestle-1, the new promotion founded by the Great Muta, is about to get an influx of talent from TNA for an upcoming live event in March. Austin Aries, Abyss, Bobby Roode, Brutus Magnus, Christopher Daniels, Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Frankie Kazarian, Gail Kim, Madison Rayne and Samoa Joe have been confirmed for the trip.

Relapse Prevention Over Time
For individuals in the U.S. & U.S. territories
In Relapse Prevention Over Time, G. Alan Marlatt demonstrates his approach to helping clients with substance addictions prevent or cope with relapses during efforts to change addictive behavior. Relapse prevention is a cognitive–behavioral, "maintenance stage" approach taken only after a client commits to either abstinence or moderation, and it is usually used in conjunction with or following clients' participation in another treatment program.
In this series of six sessions, Dr. Marlatt works with a man in his 30s who is striving to overcome a cocaine addiction. During these six sessions, Dr. Marlatt helps the client determine high-risk situations and potential triggers for relapse and teaches skills for getting through these situations. Together they work to restructure the guilt and shame that arise after lapses in abstinence. This compassionate intervention effectively reframes relapse as a mistake to learn from—and avoid—as the client moves toward recovery.

USA, 1990 (MIFF 1991, Documentaries)
Director: Stephanie Black
From the first pan across a palm-studded Jamaican landscape, Stephanie Black's feature length documentary. H-2 Worker, is stunning in its tone of calm, steady determination. H-2 Worker is a portrait of the brutal exploitation of Jamaican workers, 10,000 of whom are brought to the United States each year as "temporary" (read seasonal) workers to cut sugar cane. The workers have to harvest cane for the federally subsidised Florida sugar cane industry, their coveted temporary "H-2" visas allowing them to be flown to Florida, exploited for six months, and sent back to Jamaica each year with little to show in actual earnings. The cycle is annual, the working conditions abhorrent - as Black, filming clandestinely within the workers' barracks and on their cane fields, shows with piercing clarity.
What is most striking about the documentary is its beauty. Cinematographer Maryse Alberti (who also shot Poison and The Golden Boat) observes the terrain and the men toiling upon it, unearthing a kind of "horrible beauty" in the contrast between these men, their lot, and their surroundings. Instead of detracting from the powerful political message of the film, the cinematography resonates with themes parallel to the main storyline of political and economic exploitation - themes of alienation, exile and loneliness.
H -2 Worker may give the impression of being a "small" film on a specific political subject, which is in a sense it is, but it has a breadth that belies its own intentions. Through a subtle mixture of adroit editing, vital subject matter, and, quite simply, determination, H-2 Worker rises above its genre. Black has a gift for listening - both visually and aurally - to what she is filming. This is worth seeking out - (Adapted from) Jason Kiiot Cineaste.
Director's Note "The film was made over the course of three years without the permission of the sugar industry. In the end, the film has been seen by a broader audience than ever imagined- screened both in Congress and Cannes. This year's start of yet another harvest season brings with it the scrutiny of new-found monitoring eyes. - Stephanie Black

TUESDAY, Sept. 27 (HealthDay News) -- A fatalistic attitude
contributes to low colorectal cancer screening rates among poorer
people, even when the screening and cancer care are free, according
to U.K. researchers.
The researchers analyzed data from a series of surveys of 529
adults, aged 60 to 69, and the study findings are slated for
publication in the journal
Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention.
"In England, the screenings are free and the subsequent health treatments are free as well, yet people of lower socioeconomic status still do not get screened. We wanted to find out what else was going on," Anne Miles, a lecturer in psychology at the University of London, said in a journal news release.
She and her colleagues found that poorer people who felt that
colorectal cancer screenings wouldn't help, or that they were going
to die of cancer anyway, often ignored screening
The surveys completed by the participants collected information
about their economic status, self-rated health and rate of cancer
fatalism. Researchers compared those findings to the rate of a
colorectal cancer screening method called fecal occult blood
Men and women with higher socioeconomic status, better
self-rated health and lower cancer fatalism were 56 percent more
likely to have a fecal occult blood test.
It might be possible to reduce cancer fatalism if it is properly
identified in patients, Miles suggested in the news release.
"There is clearly something else going on here besides costs. We need to understand people's attitudes toward screening," she said. "If they think it won't help, they won't do it, even if it's free."

Back when I was a BMC drinker I would have thought a robust porter tasted "rough" as well as I was not accustomed to beer with actual taste. I would not describe BMC as "Malty", "Hoppy" or "tasty" at all.
Next up: American Pale Ale
Primary 1&2: American Brown Ale
Primary 3&4: Hopped up Belgian Tripel
Bottle Conditioning/drinking: Summer Kolsch, White Zombie (Amarillo IPA), English Pale Ale (ESB)
When people find out I brew, they some times ask for a bottle. I look at them and ask, have you ever had a real beer before?, because if your idea of beer is BMC your probably not going to like this.
I wouldn't be worried about that feedback one bit. Given their choice of beers, they would have said the same thing about Guinness and other well respected stouts/porters probably... Its like giving someone who loves justin bieber a black sabbath cd for xmas.
Pretty much everyone I hang around hates stouts and porters and any beer that resembles a meal. I may try a small batch (2gal) of Oatmeal stout or something though.
I don't mind Mill St Coffeee Porter we have here at a local brew pub. Very tasty. I love the Erdinger Dunkel.
I would kill everyone in this room for a drop of sweet beer.- Homer Simpson
off suit brewing
grand island, nebraska
On Deck: APA
Secondary: Cascadian IPA
Kegged: Heart Flush Irish Red Ale, Oatmeal Stout, American Wheat
I have found that almost everyone loves an American Pale Ale. If done right it is light enough that it drinks like a light beer, has enough maltiness to please the sweet beer lovers and enough hoppy flavor to please those who like taste. My wife actually thinks the Sierra Nevada tastes like Yuengling lager, haha. I sometimes wonder about her.
Don't worry about it. I'm sure while they were drinking it they were saying, "I don't like dark beers" or "this stuff is too thick"
I've had BMC drinkers say all sorts of weird and borderline insulting things about my beers. I brewed an 90 IBU IPA in which a BMC drinker described as tasting like Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss.
now the hilarity comes out!
he just walked in here....
i also gave him a bottle of the MrB kit - my very first beer... which i don't think is very good. and i told him so.
he drank it last night. said "it wasn't flashy, but i could drink that one again"
so. i'm going to pawn the rest of my batch on him.
i should now, officially, consider that no longer a good source of critique.
What did rough mean? A good non bitter beer should taste good to most anyone. Was it bottle conditioned? How much bottle trub? Did you tell them to let it sit a week in the fridge before drinking? I'm sure the travel to and from work, shook up all the trub. Did you teach them the homebrew pour? If not, they most likely drank it out of bottle. My guess it might have tasted rough.

I rarely ever write this personally. But okay.
When I was four, a kid in my neighbourhood took me into his room and pulled down my pants (twice) when I went over to play. I went home, told my mom, and she walked right over to that neighbour's house, where she and that kid's mom raised all kinds of hell, and that boy apologized and received a yelling mixed with a grounding mixed with a "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU" unlike none he had ever known. (Yet in high school he still went around telling everyone about it — which, frankly, is really fucked up.)
When I was five, a boy named Daniel ran up to me and kissed me in line at school, and I hit him. Later that year, a kid named Dennis reached across the floor and grabbed me when we were working on art. Again, I told my parents, and they, together with my teacher, continued the hell raising of a year before. No "boys will be boys," just pure, "DENNIS, WHAT THE FUCK. NO." The only thing *I* was told that if someone ever did that again, to tell somebody right away — and more hell-raising would ensue.
I was in grade eight when I went to confession and asked a visiting priest — who I've not seen since — what constituted as sex and what did not, and he responded with "Now Anne, I had a boner when you asked those questions, so you need to be careful what you say to boys because your words can make them uncomfortable." Gross. But also hilarious, if only for the use of the word "boner."
In grade 12, I worked at a radio station where a DJ asked me repeatedly why girls my age liked giving blow jobs, but not having sex. Where he would come up from behind and start touching my shoulders, and where he'd poke my stomach and say "it's great that girls your size aren't ashamed of showing their bodies." He was going to make me his "assistant" until another DJ (who I will always be grateful to) warned me against it: he had a history of making his "assistants" look up porn, and yes, the station manager knew, but didn't care. So she told me to quit and to be "the little co-op that could." So I did, and I helped get him fired, and my co-op teacher probably had never felt so bad for putting anyone in a position like that, ever. (Even though he had no idea.)
Throughout high school, I can't count how many guys told me not to be a tease, or to dress sexier, and that if I did, good, and also, if we hooked up not to say anything because other girls they were hooking up with would find out, or they were embarrassed. I can't count the number of times I was inappropriately touched or groped or told it was a compliment to be cat-called. And at the time, I believed that it was, because if men didn't want me like that, who would want me for anything?
At 17, a guy I worked with told me he liked my nail polish because it made me "look slutty." The same age, I had 30-year-old guys commenting on my sex life (or lack thereof), and I won't tell you what they said about the other girls and the nicknames they had for any them.
I also won't tell you about friends who were assaulted, or friends who were nearly assaulted, or friends who were shamed into doing stuff they weren't comfortable with, or friends who've been drugged. Even now, I have conversations with friends who worry about what "guys expect" even though I am 100% sure never once did we sign contracts that made us indentured anythings. From what I understand, we're all human beings, and human beings are equals. Except, thanks to rape culture, we're not.
The fact that my first incidence of being sexualized was when I was four tells us something about our society. In my case, I've been lucky to be raised by staunch feminists, but even with my dad and mom's messages of "YOU DO YOU, GIRL," I was still smothered by the rape culture that dictates our social values. It took me until I was 25 to really embrace that I didn't "deserve" anything, and it took me until much more recently to believe it.
Rape culture pits us against each other. But the thing is, some of the most outspoken and disgusted people about the Steubenville trial have been men I look up to and men I am friends with. The women? Well, we're tough broads — we have to be. The fact that we live under constant threat of sexual harassment/assault/attack gives you a thick skin. Strength and banding together is necessary — we get it, because we don't have a choice.
Still, men aren't the enemy — not even close. Even as I write about the years of feeling like shit at the hands of some guys, I know there are so many more who are decent, amazing, wonderful, my future husband (shout-out to Benedict Cumberbatch, if you're reading this). Our friends, our family, our boyfriends/husbands.
No, the enemy is rape culture. Which makes fuckers seem like the majority, and works to excuse those fuckers because "men have no control over themselves." That's unfair, and it's not true, and it gloriously fucked up. But if it keeps being ingrained into the minds of everyone via the media (here's looking at you, CNN!), women will be stuck explaining how we were not asking for it, and men will be painted as tortured, fallen heroes just following their instincts.
We're more than playthings and animals. We have brains, and we have hearts, and we are human beings. Like you, the Steubenville case broke mine, but it also enraged me. And the only way we'll break free from rape culture is if we finally demand it be torn down. Like someone once said to me, "help through your gifts." So help through your gifts. And refuse to bow down to it. And refuse to laugh at it. And refuse to excuse it. And refuse to stay silent when it's happening around you.
We have a chance to not only demand change, but to see it happen. We are seeing it right now. But we are also seeing the fuckers rise up to blame the victim and mourn lost football careers. So even though change is a-brewing, we have a long way to go. But we're tough broads (this includes you, guys who crave change). We can handle it.

drinking surveys and by concerns about the differing prevalence rates that result from the three major national surveys, with the NHSDA consistently reporting the lowest prevalence. The most recent and prominent effort, by Foster et al. (2003), used the NHSDA data to estimate the number of drinks consumed during the previous 30 days by current drinkers, based on multiplying together answers to questions on the number of drinking days during that period, and on how many drinks the respondent "usually" had on a drinking day.3 But NHSDA data were not used to estimate the participation rates—the proportions of the youth and adult populations that were current drinkers. Instead, the authors chose to use the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to estimate the proportion of underage individuals (12 to 20) who were current drinkers, and the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey to estimate the proportion of adults who were current drinkers. These estimated participation rates were then combined with the NHSDA data on average drinks per current drinker to estimate the total amounts of alcohol consumed by youths and adults. The authors (Foster et al., 2003) calculated that underage individuals consumed 19.7 percent of the total number of drinks consumed in the United States in 1999, amounting to more than 830.6 million drinks per month. It is easy to find fault with the procedure adopted by Foster et al. (2003), but it is nonetheless not clear a priori whether the estimate is high, low, or about right. Three problems may be especially important. First, the average number of drinks consumed on drinking occasions is not well captured by the NHSDA item, which asks about the usual number of drinks. For example, a respondent who drinks a beer with supper every night and an additional six-pack on Saturday nights will "usually" drink one drink per occasion, but will drink an average of two drinks per occasion (14 for the week, divided by 7 days). What is not known is how each respondent interpreted this question and whether he or she then answered one or two drinks or something else. Whether this problem is greater for underage or adult drinkers is not clear, so the possible bias in the Foster et al. estimate could be either positive or negative.
Second, the YBRS does not seem well suited for estimating the participation rate for all youth aged 12 to 20 because the YRBS sampling frame is limited to youth aged 12 to 18 who are in school. Unlike the NHSDA, dropouts and older youths are not included in the YRBS. If the omitted groups have a higher drinking participation rate, as seems reasonable, then
Foster et al. (2003) excluded cases that reported 50 or more drinks as the usual number of drinks consumed on days they drank in the last 30 days because the response suggest a misunderstanding of the question. It is not clear to what extent inclusion of these responses in the analysis would have changed the outcomes.
