It has been nearly three weeks since I attended the 2013 IMLCA convention. This post was crafted from memory in an attempt to show off my biggest takeaways from the event. The chief discussion point among my group of friends (high school and college coaches) was the value of the talks and presentations.

Federal investigators are still looking for the cause of a medical helicopter crash in northern Iowa that killed three people.
Pilot Gene Grell, nurse Shelly Lair-Langenbau and paramedic Russell Piehl died when the helicopter crashed north of Ventura near Mason City Wednesday night. They were on the way to Emmetsburg to pick up a patient.
Lair-Langenbau and Piehl worked for Mercy Medical Center-North Iowa in Mason City.
The CEO of the medical transport company that owned the helicopter says the pilot didn't make any emergency call. The helicopter had a satellite tracking system that monitored its position and other information instead of the traditional onboard black box.
Weather was overcast with 10-to-15 mile per hour winds at the time of the crash.

As far back as I can remember I have always enjoyed performing music. I can remember during my elementary school years how I would play drums during church service. Some days I would sneak in my dad's closet to play his saxophone. I began learning how to play saxophone in middle school and by the time I was in high school I was learning piano, performing jazz, and composing music.
I went on to get a Bachelor of Music at the University of North Texas. I have been performing professionally for over 18 years. I also have taught band for 11 years in Dallas ISD. I enjoy teaching and mentoring other up and coming musicians. It's a joy to see another world open up to them through music.
Through my warm and positive personality and experience as a certified music teacher and music ...
Jazz improvisation, blues, funk, Brazilian, rock, classical.
My Schedule varies week to week. If you would like to take lessons with me but my current listed availability is not suited to your schedule- please contact me for more lesson times.
Jazz and blues have been an integral part of my life since I was a child. I began playing music when I was five years old, starting with the violin. I have played many instruments, but the saxophone has become my passion. I have been playing saxophone for 18 years, performing professionally both in the Atlanta and Seattle areas.
One of the greatest joys in my musical journey has been to share my musical insights with students. I strive to find each students' creativity and help them cultivate that. I believe that every student has the ability to create beautiful music regardless of ...
Beginner alto saxophone students. Depending on overall musical experience of the student, the initial focus will be on proper embouchure, beginner music theory, and note reading exercises. Lessons will work in conjunction with other aspects of the students music education, such as music class in school.

Saxophone is my primary instrument and easily my most desired to teach! If you are looking for a fun, friendly, but knowledgeable and experienced saxophone teacher, you have come to the right place. I'm well versed in both the classical playing (my undergraduate experience) and jazz playing (my graduate experience) of the saxophone and am very excited to teach you about both!
Greetings musician!
My name is Jason R. and I am a recent graduate at Bowling Green State University with a Master of Music Performance in Jazz Studies (May 2014). I'm primarily a jazz saxophonist, however, I have a Bachelor's of Music Performance in Classical Saxophone and double in flute and clarinet playing. I'm also the Minister of Music at New Covenant Church International where I sing, play piano, and assist in leading our NCCI choir. I'm well versed in music theory, aural skills, composition, and arranging. I look forward to working with you as we explore your musical desires!
From beginning to advanced students on all horns, I teach the fundamentals of saxophone technique to all students using exercises I design based on the exact needs of each individual student, occasionally drawing on existing literature as well. In addition to fundamental technique for all students (sound production, scales, arpeggios, etudes etc.) I help students develop general musical skills (sight reading, stylistic affectations specific to genre, improvisation, and more) depending upon their needs and interests. Finally, I make sure students know HOW to practice, teaching them techniques and attitudes that will ensure that their practice is effective and aiding them in improving consistently (and, at times, very rapidly).
I hold a Bachelor of Music in Performance from Berklee College of Music. Over 10+ years of playing and about 5 years teaching I have had the good fortune to work with Dann Zinn, Shannon LeClaire, George Garzone, Julian Lage, and Hal Crook, all of whom have informed my teaching approach with students of all levels. It is my goal as a teacher to strengthen a student's ability to learn independently and develop themselves both musically and personally with their unique passions as their guide. Subjects covered will include instrumental technique, effective practice techniques/time management, theory, ear training, and improvisational concepts, according to the needs of each individual student at any given time. The latter four subjects I can teach to any person on ANY instrument. I ...
My lesson style is relaxed, and I want to focus on whatever style of music you are passionate about! Whether it's jazz, rock, Latin, reggae, classical, blues, or r&b, I can give you the tools you need to get up on stage and impress your friends and family!
I feel that every student is different, so I try to gear my lessons keeping that in mind! Within the first few lessons, we will create unique monthly goals together based on your desires and my insight.
I am a passionate musician, educator, and friendly human being! :) I have a Bachelors of Music Degree from the University of Oregon in Jazz Saxophone performance and composition, and I'm currently in progress of achieving a masters of fine art in Music Production for visual media. I am a fluid performer and composer in all genres, including jazz, rock, Latin, r&b, classical, etc. Contact me for any further questions or links to my musical works!
"Steven is very professional and extremely helpful. He always has a smile on and is serious about helping you phrase the music. I would highly recommend him to anyone."
"It's been really exciting so far! Jordan has been so helpful, so knowledgeable. I could not have found a better instructor and I'm getting better and better every day."

HoopsHype Jermaine O'Neal rumors
Marcus Thompson: Warriors announce Jermaine O'Neal, one of the few bright spots on Golden State's bench, will undergo surgery on his right wrist tomorrow Twitter @ThompsonScribe
Marcus Thompson: Officially, timetable for his return will be determined post-procedure. But likelihood is surgery would end his season, possibly his career Twitter @ThompsonScribe
Jermaine O'Neal has been playing with a sprained right wrist, which is technically a tear of the ligaments, but there are no plans for the Warriors backup center to have surgery. The severity of the injury is unknown, as the Warriors aren't saying. O'Neal, according to team sources, has had the wrist checked out a few times, the latest examination coming Monday. San Jose Mercury-News
Oracle Arena erupted at the final buzzer after being a den of silence for much of the game. Team owner Joe Lacob and general manager Bob Myers ducked into a private room and let out a loud shout while the Warriors celebrated the NBA's biggest comeback this season while jogging off the court. Afterward, all anyone wanted to talk about was O'Neal's pep talk. "(He) gave a great speech at halftime," Thompson said. "Honestly, that was what was our turning point. It wasn't in the fourth quarter or the third quarter. It was at halftime." ESPN.com
Just read these words spoken by Jermaine O'Neal and understand the value of the vets the Knicks lost last season: Here's JO on the Warriors performance last night, which started with a 27-point deficit in the third quarter and ended with an epic win. "This is real. A lot of people put a lot of time and effort to this–the preparation of coach Jackson and his staff, the fan support that we get in this building every single night, the ownership, the money that they put into this team… you don't get this opportunity a lot." Sulia
Jermaine O'Neal: "So we had better do a better job of understanding of what's all at stake here. Because you may not get this opportunity again in another year to compete for a championship. I know that first hand. I tell these guys, I'm into my 18th year, I'm not playing for any money. I'm playing for a championship. Because God has blessed me to make a nice living for my family and be a building block for my family for many years. But I'm still playing only to try to win a championship because I'm envious of guys opening up the champagne and crying and confetti and that's something I've dreamed about. So it ain't given that we're going to be given another opportunity because we're young. No, anything could happen–trades, injuries, whatever it may be. If we've got an opportunity we've got to take full advantage of that, because we are built for it. We have the crowd, we have the support from our coach and the staff and our ownership. That's the perfect combination, so now it's up to us." Sulia
Marc J. Spears: Warriors Jermaine O'Neal plans to test his bruised knee & groin strain next 2 days & if all goes well he could return Tues @ NO, sources say Twitter @SpearsNBAYahoo
"Oklahoma City reminds me a lot of Portland, back when it was Rip City. It's the only pro team in the city, and those people really come out and support it," said Warriors backup center Jermaine O'Neal, who is playing for his seventh team in his 18th NBA season. "Those guys do a really good job in Oklahoma City, but I think our home crowd is probably the loudest. It's very difficult to come inside of Oracle and get a win, because of the energy that's inside the building." San Francisco Chronicle
If there's a difference between the Dolphins' Martin and O'Neal, it's that the older Blazers also took care of O'Neal in their way. He turned 18 that first season but still wasn't old enough to get into a lot of clubs or bars, so Trent would hang with him at the hotel and play video games. When they sent him for food, they'd pay for his meal along with the gas money. They knew he was making considerably less than most of them, and they bought him suits and occasionally gave him their per diem allotment on the road. He figures his teammates ultimately spent more on him than the bill for repairing his hotel room. "I have a lot more good stories than bad ones," he says. Bleacher Report
O'Neal and several other veterans said such baptisms of fire don't exist today, or at least they're not nearly as fiery. There are pranks, such as when the Warriors filled Kent Bazemore's Nissan with popcorn. Kicking balls into the stands to be retrieved after a game-day shootaround, wearing a Dora The Explorer backpack, delivering pre-practice doughnuts and singing their school song are all standard practices. But that's about it. "It's gotten a lot different," O'Neal said. "You hear stories, like about guys having the wheels taken off of their car and put in their locker, but I don't think anyone takes that kind of stuff as personal." Bleacher Report
Jermaine O'Neal is ready to cash in his chips. The NBA big man has put his Henderson, NV, home on the market a mere six days after inking a one-year, $2 million contract with the Golden State Warriors. O'Neal previously listed the home during the 2011 NBA lockout for $3.55 million, the same amount he paid for the property in 2007. The NBA veteran is now poised to lose a considerable amount of money on the house after relisting it for just under $3 million. Built in 2006, O'Neal's posh desert pad offers a total of six bedrooms, nine baths and nearly 7,500 square feet of living space. The home has standard amenities such as a formal entry, a dining room and a total of four fireplaces, and also some not-so-standard perks such as an indoor basketball court, an in-house movie theater, a game room and a wet bar. The athlete's home rounds out with a five-car garage and an outdoor patio that includes a pool with a waterfall and slide, fountains and an outdoor kitchen. Realtor
The Golden State Warriors have signed free agent center Jermaine O'Neal to a contract, the team announced today. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released. NBA.com
Marcus Thompson: Jermaine O'Neal: "By no means did I come here to be a player-coach ... I wouldn't have taken this opp if I didn't think I could perform." Twitter @gswscribe

November 25, 2014
LAS VEGAS (AP) - The owners of a business featured in the cable television show "Pawn Stars" and the network that handles it are being sued by a Las Vegas promoter who claims he was wrongly fired in January and denied a share of profits.
Wayne Jefferies alleges breach of contract by Gold & Silver Pawn Shop Inc. and its owners, and improper interference in business dealings by A&E Network and the History Channel.
Attorney Douglas Gerrard represents Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. He said Monday he hasn't seen the civil lawsuit filed Thursday in Nevada state court. He declined comment.
A network spokeswoman didn't immediately respond to messages.
Attorneys Richard Schonfeld and David Chesnoff represent Jefferies.
They say Jefferies represented the pawn shop owners from 2007 until he was fired in January.

Kevin Pollak's been great in great movies and great in bad movies; too bad he's been in more of the latter than the former. In fact, once you get past Avalon, The Usual Suspects, Casino, L.A. Story and--be nice, be nice--Grumpy Old Menand Miami Rhapsody, the guy's been in so many bad movies Showtime and The Movie Channel don't have enough free slots between them to air all of Pollak's missteps and money-grabs, though I'm sure 1999's The Sex Monsterwill wind up in a bidding war between the two alleged premium cable outlets. But don't hold Chameleonor Hoodsor House Arrestor The Whole Nine Yardsor 3000 Miles to Gracelandor The Wedding Planneror End of Days...well, don't hold a few other things against Pollak. Why? He knows better.
I've always thought that somewhere within Pollak resides a bona fide artist dying for the opportunity to do more than interpret Arnold Schwarzenegger from the original gibberish or play 15th fiddle to Eddie Murphy and talking animals. One need look no further than a would-have-been masterpiece Pollak created with Usual Suspectsscreenwriter Christopher McQuarrie. Titled Underworld, it was a complex, wrenching crime story told from the criminals' point of view. Pollak, his smirk bent slightly out of shape, played Charlie "The Brain" Dyer, a con who spent five years in "The Institute"; Charlie wanted only to go straight as a computer repairman, but his old gang, the Mob (headed by Chris Sarandon) and even the cops (Felicity Huffman, ex of Sports Night) wouldn't hear of it. Neither would ABC. The network that gave Geena Davis a steady paycheck for a season passed on the 90-minute pilot, and Underworldwound up 6 feet under. Just as well. Network TV didn't deserve it.
And so Pollak winds up making good money by holding his nose in mediocre movies. So what? He's having fun. He's even back on the road doing a stand-up act--the actor's version of returning to his roots. No doubt he'll do Shatner, Falk, the whole gang, the usual suspects--great, can't wait. But me, I'd pay to see him do 60 minutes of Charlie Dyer.

Smallest one is perfect for my car
The smallest (1.7 gallon) one fits perfectly between the front and back seats of my car (2005 Honda Civic EX). It's easy to reach from either the front or back seat, and the lid keeps the trash out of sight. Also, because the trash can doesn't quite reach the floor, my umbrella still fits on the floor of the back seat...Read the full review >

text: HISTORY OF FLIGHTOn February 9, 1996, approximately 2050 central standard time, a Cessna 150, N7973F, was destroyed after colliding with terrain while maneuvering near Galveston Municipal Airport, Galveston, Texas. The private pilot, sole occupant and owner of the airplane, received fatal injuries. The airplane was being operated under Title 14 CFR Part 91 when the accident occurred. The airplane departed Addison Airport, Dallas, Texas, approximately 1636 on a VFR flight plan en route to Galveston, Texas, via Huntsville, Texas. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed along the route of flight; however, instrument conditions prevailed in the vicinity of the accident site.After an uneventful flight between Dallas and Huntsville, the pilot landed at Huntsville Municipal Airport to refuel prior to leaving for his planned destination of Galveston. According to a refueling receipt found in the airplane after the accident, the airplane received 13.9 gallons of 100 low lead aviation fuel at Huntsville. In an interview with the investigator-in charge, a ramp attendant at Huntsville stated that the airplane was "topped off" prior to departure. Although he did not recall the exact time of departure, he thought that it was "sometime around 1915." He added that during a conversation with the pilot, the pilot told him that he was en route to Galveston, and that "fog could be a problem if he didn't hurry up and take off." The pilot also told him that, "if the fog doesn't blow over, I'll be back in." The pilot was a regular customer and, according to the ramp attendant, "it was not typical for [him] to arrive on a Friday night because most of his visits were in the middle of the day."The Conroe, Texas, Flight Service Station contacted Galveston Airport operations at 2045 to inquire about the aircraft as it was in an overdue status. Airport personnel then conducted a ramp check with negative results. At 2055 Galveston police 911 dispatch relayed a cell phone report of an airplane crash north of the airport. Airport operations then mobilized Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) units. The wreckage was located at 2120 on the edge of Galveston Bay, approximately 1,550 feet north of the departure end of runway 35. Although there were no eye witnesses to the accident, it was discovered that 2 fishermen (made cell call to police) who were in a boat north of the airport reported hearing the sound of an aircraft engine through the dense fog, and then a "crash" sound.PERSONNEL INFORMATIONThe pilot kept detailed records of his flight time. According to those records, that were provided by a family member, the pilot earned his private pilot certificate on March 13, 1993. His total flight time at the time of the accident was approximately 250 hours, and 146 of those hours were flown in N7973F. He had 23 total hours of night time and 0.0 hours of actual instrument time. All of the pilot's 5.0 total hours of simulated instrument time was logged prior to March 14, 1993. His last flight, 105 days prior to the accident, was logged on October 27, 1995 (also logged 2.0 hours of night time on this date). The records revealed that since January 26, 1993, the pilot flew 9 round trip flights as pilot-in-commend from Dallas to Galveston. During those flights, no actual or simulated instrument time was logged. His last round trip flight to Galveston was logged on October 7, 1995. AIRCRAFT INFORMATIONAccording to airframe maintenance records, provided by the owner's family, the aircraft's total time in service was 2,757.1 hours as of its last 100 hour inspection performed on February 8, 1995. Tachometer time and Hobbs time could not be determined at the accident site due to impact damage. However, according to family members, the airplane was flown exclusively by the pilot. Therefore, since the pilot logged about 60.3 hours after the last inspection, the aircraft's total time at the time of the accident was approximately 2,817.4 hours. A review of the maintenance records did not reveal any uncorrected maintenance defects and, according to the records, the airframe was in compliance with applicable airworthiness directives. The records also indicated that the last static system and altimeter check was performed on February 21, 1994.The engine was a Continental model O-200-A. According to engine maintenance records and estimated tachometer time, the engine's total time in service was approximately 2,817.4 hours at the time of the accident. The last major overhaul of the engine was performed on September 3, 1970 (tachometer time 1,611.89 hours before zeroed). The engine's time since major overhaul was approximately 1,205.5 hours at the time of the accident. The engine was operated about 60.3 hours since the last annual inspection performed on February 8, 1995. According to the records, there were no uncorrected maintenance defects and the engine was in compliance with applicable airworthiness directives.METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATIONThe reported weather observations at Galveston Municipal Airport before and during the accident time period were as follows (estimated time of accident event is 2050):TIME CEILING VISIBILITY TEMP DEW WIND ALTIMETER1850 100 OVC 1/4 mile/FOG 60 60 180/12 30.011950 100 OVC 1/4 mile/FOG 60 60 200/12 30.02 2050 Obscured 1/8 mile/FOG 59 58 170/11 30.032127 Obscured 1/8 mile/FOG 59 58 170/10 30.03In an interview with the investigator-in-charge, the pilot of an aircraft (N5484D) reported that he was executing the ILS RWY 13 approach into Galveston at approximately 2115. He stated that, while being vectored at an altitude of 2,000 feet, "fog was below and it was clear above." Ground lights were "dimly" visible through the fog. On final, he activated the pilot controlled MASLR lights to high intensity and entered the fog bank at approximately 400 feet AGL. At decision height he executed a missed approach due to the fact that "the runway lights were not visible and the incandescent approach lights were barely visible." He added that, the visibility "had to be 3/10 or less." He further stated that he was able to see parked aircraft and distinguish between paved and unpaved surfaces from directly above the fog layer. However, upon entering the fog on the descent, "visual cues disappeared" and he relied solely on his instruments. According to Galveston Airport's daily activity log, the last aircraft to land at the facility on the day of the accident was at 1825. The UNICOM radio attendant at Galveston reported that the foggy weather conditions prevailed at the airport from about 1830 throughout the evening.COMMUNICATIONSThe pilot filed a VFR flight plan from Dallas via telephone with Fort Worth Automated Flight Service Station (AFSS) at 1443. He relayed to the operator that he would be departing Dallas at 1530 and would arrive at Galveston between 1800 and 1830. The operator gave the pilot weather information along the route of flight. According to FAA records, the following is a draft transcript portion of the weather information received by the pilot from AFSS between 1443 and 1444 central standard time:1443:29 AFSS "No adverse weather features anywhere in the state and no flight precautions. Addison is reporting clear and ten surface winds two four zero at one zero. They should be like that as you depart. It's clear across much or about the first half of your trip. Southern half is partly cloudy but still VFR typical of Galveston. They are two thousand scattered, four thousand broken, two five thousand broken, visibility is seven with surface winds one nine zero at one five. What time would you be arriving, I'll check for their forecast."1444:09 PILOT "I guess be about twenty-four or double thirty." (zulu time)1444:16 AFSS "Your arrival stays pretty much as they are now with two thousand scattered ceiling, four thousand broken, visibility seven or greater, surface winds one nine zero at five. What altitude for winds."The complete draft transcript between the pilot and Fort Worth AFSS is attached to this report.The pilot activated the VFR flight plan with Fort Worth AFSS at 1636 after becoming airborne from Addison Airport, Dallas, Texas. According to FAA records, no further radio communications between the aircraft and any AFSS or approach control facility along the route of flight was reported. Radar data from Houston Center was reviewed with negative results.WRECKAGE AND IMPACT INFORMATIONThe airplane wreckage was found in a marshy area on the southern edge of Galveston Bay, approximately 1550 feet beyond the departure end of runway 35, on a magnetic heading of the 350 degrees. The entire wreckage distribution, including ground scars, was spread over a linear rectangular area approximately 160 feet long by 30 feet wide. The approximate center line of the energy path was oriented about 350 degrees magnetic. Initial ground scars encompassed a 14 foot wide area of cut branches from bushes standing about 4 feet from ground level. The approximate angle of the cuts were measured to be 10-15 degrees sloping downward about 30 feet forward along the energy path. The next ground scars along the energy path were 2 impressions in the ground about 8 feet apart and 8 inches deep. These impressions correspond to the measured distance between the main landing gear struts of the aircraft. Just forward along the path of these impressions was a 12 inch deep, 25 foot long, and 2 foot wide ground impression. Paint chips and debris from the underside of the fuselage were found embedded in this scar. The main wreckage was found about 85 feet forward of this impression.The engine compartment and forward cabin section was found folded under the aft fuselage. The fuselage was partially separated along the lateral axis of the fold (aft of the baggage compartment). Both wings exhibited bending aft along the chordwise axis near the wing root, and were also folded under the fuselage. The left wing leading edge was crushed aft along the span from the wing tip inboard to the wing support strut. The right wing exhibited similar damage. The empennage was intact and flight control cable continuity from the fuselage (aft of the baggage compartment) to the rudder and elevator control surfaces was confirmed. Flight control cable continuity from the cockpit to the ailerons, and from the cockpit aft to where the fuselage was separated, could not be confirmed due to impact damage. Measurement of the flap jackscrew revealed a 10 degree down position. The cockpit was mostly destroyed by impact forces. The landing light, navigation light, and strobe switches were found in the "off" position. The mixture control lever was destroyed, throttle lever "open", and carburetor heat was "closed." The altimeter needles displayed "470" feet and the kohlsman window within displayed "29.91" (the reported altimeter at Galveston was 30.03 at the time of the accident). The propeller hub assembly was attached to the flange mount and the spinner exhibited spiral crushing aft. Both blades exhibited bending toward the non-cambered side and were twisted in the direction of rotation. The engine exhibited heavy impact damage. The engine oil sump was crushed aft, the intake and exhaust pipes were crushed, and the right magneto was partially separated from the case. The #1 and #3 top ignition leads were damaged near their respective plugs. For documentation purposes, the top spark plugs and valve covers were removed and the crankshaft was rotated. The oil inlet screen was clean and clear of debris. Internal engine continuity was confirmed by piston and valve rocker arm movement, and movement of the accessory drives. A differential compression check was performed with the following results: #1 cylinder, 0/80 PSI; #2 cylinder, 31/80 PSI; #3 cylinder, 0/80 PSI; #4 cylinder, 46/80 PSI. A timing check of the left magneto revealed it to be 24 degrees before top dead center. Impact damage (flange mount fractured) to the right magneto prohibited a timing check. Both magnetos sparked at all terminals when rotated by hand. The carburetor body exhibited impact damage and the mixture and throttle were free to move. Upon disassembly, no internal damage was noted. The fuel screen was clean and clear of debris. The spark plugs electrodes exhibited moderate, uniform wear. The vacuum pump assembly drive shaft was found partially separated. Other that the aforementioned impact related damage to the airframe and the engine, no pre-existing anomalies were discovered that would have contributed to the accident. ARFF rescue personnel (on the scene about 20 minutes after the accident) reported that there was a heavy fuel odor at the accident site. Pools of fuel were evident in the marsh adjacent to the wreckage. Inspection of the runway revealed no physical evidence that the aircraft came into contact with the paved surface.MEDICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL INFORMATIONToxicology tests on the pilot for alcohol, drugs and carbon monoxide were negative. An autopsy, performed by the County of Galveston Medical Examiner's Office, revealed that the pilot's cause of death was multiple traumatic injuries. FIREThere was no evidence of an in-flight or post impact fire.TESTS AND RESEARCHAccording to carburetor icing probability charts, atmospheric conditions were conducive for carburetor icing. However, the fishermen who heard the engine operating prior to impact did not report any unusual sounds ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONThe wreckage was released to the owner's representative.

A Fort Recovery, Ohio, teacher has been charged with sexual battery, the Mercer County sheriff said today.
Christopher A. Summers, 32, of St. Henry, Ohio, an accounting teacher at Fort Recovery High School, formerly was the school's girls junior varsity basketball coach, Sheriff Jeff Grey said in a statement.
The statement said the sheriff's office was contacted Monday by the victim and her family, and an investigation determined that Summers knew the victim from school and had a relationship with her that lasted nearly three years.
The alleged conduct occurred at Summers' home and at a hotel in a neighboring county, the statement said. It said the sheriff's office obtained a search warrant Tuesday to search the home, and seized computers, cameras and other electronic equipment.
None of the alleged conduct occurred during school events or on school property, Grey said, and Fort Recovery Schools has cooperated with the investigation.
The Mercer County Prosecutor's Office is reviewing the case, the statement said.

The airplane was destroyed during an on-ground fire following an emergency descent/landing due to an in-flight fire. The pilot reported that he smelled smoke followed by the cabin filling with heavy black smoke. The pilot stated flames began to enter the cockpit as he maneuvered the airplane for a landing in an agricultural field. The airplane nosed over during the landing. The left exhaust stack assembly contained a fatigue fracture adjacent to the main collector welded joint. The fracture was in both the heat affected zone and parent material. The fracture initiated in multiple locations on the outside surface of the tube and progressed through a fatigue mechanism. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) confirmed that both the weld and tube material met design specifications. The weld profile contained no apparent flaws. The left exhaust stack assembly had accumulated approximately 100 hours since new. The design of the Cessna supplied left exhaust stack assembly differs from the comparable Knisley PMA assembly. The Cessna assembly has a two-piece main collector. The two halves are stamped-out and joined together with a seam weld. The weight of the turbocharger assembly is supported in part by the left exhaust stack assembly. The Knisley main collector is manufactured by welding several tube sections together. Knisley issued a mandatory service bulletin that called for the removal of their left exhaust stack assembly and its replacement with the current Cessna assembly or FAA approved equivalent. The service bulletin states that the replacement was instituted because the Knisely assembly was not designed to carry the load of the turbocharger and compressor.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

|Harry Style and Jennifer Lawrence
The One Direction star has had a crush on the 'Silver Linings Playbook' actress for months and he has now acted on his feelings asking her to "chill out" with when he heads to the city in the coming weeks.
Harry, 19, is hoping to get a chance to woo Jennifer, 23, while he enjoys some time off following the end of 1D's tour, which wrapped up in Tokyo, Japan.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Harry has sent Jen a message telling her he's coming to LA to chill out after the band's world tour.
"He's said he hopes they can hang out together and see where it leads.
"He also wants to show her his new LA pad. She is flattered and has told him she likes playing 1D songs."
Jennifer dated 'Skins' star Nicholas Hoult for two years after they met on the set of 'X-Men: First Class'. They later split in January this year but have been seen together on several occasions since officially breaking up, most recently at the wrap party of their new movie, 'X-Men: Days of Future Past', in Montreal, Canada, at which they arrived hand-in-hand.
Harry is renowned for his womanizing ways and has dated TV presenter Caroline Flack, 33, and Taylor Swift, 23.
The pop heartthrob recently admitted he has a crush on Jennifer, saying: "Sometimes you see girls walking down the street proper dressed up, but they can't walk because their shoes are dodgy.
"Jennifer dresses cool. I like her at all those big awards things."

About Amy Umble: Amy Umble writes about religion and social issues affecting the Fredericksburg community. You can email her at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Staffing the shelters
If area localities have to open hurricane shelters, the Rappahannock Chapter of the American Red Cross will provide volunteers. The local chapter has about 80 trained shelter workers, said Director Phyllis McBride. Some of those volunteers are in Louisa, helping in the aftermath of the earthquake. But 25 volunteers have already committed to helping with hurricane shelters, she said.
McBride asked area residents to listen to the radio. All area stations will be informed if shelters open. She hopes to know by late tomorrow or early Saturday whether the shelters will be necessary. Each locality makes its own decision on shelters.
She also suggested residents have water–a gallon per person per day, a battery-operated radio and a flashlight handy.

Chemex filters are 20-30% heavier than competitive brands. They remove even the finest sediment particles as well as the undesirable oils and fats. The formulation of the filter permits the proper infusion time by regulating the filtration rate - not too slow, not too fast. Good infusion of the coffee grounds (as in brewing and steeping tea) gives coffee a richer flavor while at the same time making possible precise fractional extraction filtering out the undesirable components which make coffee bitter by allowing only the desirable flavor elements of the coffee bean to pass through.The Chemex filter is folded into a cone shape, exactly as in laboratory techniques. This assures uniform extraction since the water filters through all the grounds on its way to the apex of the cone. The Chemex filter is guaranteed not to burst under the weight of the liquid during filtration, and not to break when lifting out the grounds.
- Oxygen Cleansed
- Box contains 100 filters
- Filters fit six and 8 cup Chemex models

Love to travel but would rather leave a shoe footprint than a carbon one?
Car-Free Happy Hours (well, without motors, it's two and a half hours) began in October in order to raise awareness of alternate and environmentally friendly forms of transportation, such as bicycling, walking and public transit. Coordinator Brent Tinnell has hosted several of these gatherings in Old Louisville, downtown and in Crescent Hill, and last Tuesday he brought it to the Monkey Wrench in the Highlands. "It was kind of an idea I had in mind with the Coalition for Advancement of Regional Transportation (CART)," says Tinnell, who was waiting for a bus when I reached him. "We wanted to have a time for pedestrians and transit users and bicyclists to get together and get to know each other and talk about different issues." Having the event at different locales has helped mix things up while introducing different groups of people to one another. Tinnell says that even though the weather typically has been unfavorable for nonmotorists, he's optimistic about the Highlands gathering: "The weather's usually been rainy or cold but we still manage to get at least a dozen people and most of them are on bicycles." It was not just a good time for all, but informative too. Speakers from the Kentuckiana Regional Planning & Development Agency (KIPDA) discussed bike pooling to work, which involves finding people who live close to you and riding together. Also, Amanda Fuller, the new director of Bicycling for Louisville,was on hand.
For details on the next Car-Free Happy Hours, call Brent Tinnell at 502-619-4352.

Genetic factors controlling mammalian hibernation
Research in my laboratory is directed toward the characterization of genes responsible for the induction and maintenance of hibernation in mammals. Hibernating mammals provide a unique system for identifying molecules that are important in regulating metabolism, body temperature and sleep. In a state of deep hibernation, body temperature is only a few degrees above 0°C, oxygen consumption holds at 1/30 to 1/50 of the aroused condition and heart rate can be as low as 3-10 beats/minute, compared to 200-300 beats/minute when the animal is awake and active. We are currently identifying genes that are responsible for regulating the physiological characteristics of hibernation in the heart of the thirteen-lined ground squirrel Spermophilus tridecemlineatus.As part of a high-throughput screen for genes expressed in the hearts of active and hibernating animals, we have assembled contigs for over 100 distinct ground squirrel cDNAs. As a genomic resource, the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) has funded the construction of a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) library of the thirteen-lined ground squirrel genome. Status and availability of this library can be found at www.genome.gov/10001852.
Hibernation is seen in a wide-range of taxa including rodents, carnivores, insectivores, bats and even primates. Since the majority of species within these groups do not hibernate, it has been proposed that hibernation results from the differential expression of genes common to all mammals rather than the evolution of new genes unique to the hibernating species. Determining the function of gene products involved in hibernation is one of the main goals of the laboratory and has applications in the areas of hypothermiaschemia/reperfusion injury, cardiac function and organ preservation.

text: The student pilot reported that while taxiing his recently purchased, experimental light sport weight-shift control airplane on a residential driveway, he pushed the control bar forward, and a gust of wind lifted the airplane. He said that he was not intending to fly the airplane, but due to the gusty wind conditions, he elected to fly to the nearest airport instead of returning to the driveway. In his written report to the NTSB the pilot reported that he encountered windshear while on a southwesterly approach to Runway 24, which "slammed me into the ground." The airplane sustained substantial damage. The pilot indicated that there were no preaccident mechanical problems with the airplane, and noted in his written report that the accident could have been avoided if he had not been taxiing the airplane in gusty wind conditions, with little previous flying experience. At the time of the accident a nearby aviation weather reporting station reported winds to be 260 degrees at 14 knots.

1996 OPEN FORUM Abstracts
How Safe Is Transport
Jerry A. Focht, RRT Monday, November 4, 1996
The air ambulance environment provides unique challenges for maintaining correct infection control. From the flight to the small rural hospital for the six year old with suspected bacterial meningitis, to the high speed motor vehicle crash with the suspected intravenous drug user, air ambulance crews need to be informed and prepared for these situations before they arise.
Utilizing the Commission on Accreditation of Air Medical Services standards and the federal OSHA standards, air ambulance providers can implement infection control and communicable disease policies and procedures.

hold nothing back from life
June 10, 2013
It had been. And then it no longer was. It had slipped through my fingers, time keeps on slippinn (cue the Steve Miller track). I had thought, but that's where I went wrong. So I unplugged from the mainframe and went AWOL. And I think, or rather I feel, that it couldn't have ever been anything other than what it was.
Last week I sat down to do cards. Shuffled, once, twice, nine times. Cut the cards three times with my right hand. Drew the XIII card for the first time in my life.
(Of course.) It begins here. I opened the baby blue paperback to read the meditation but I already knew the verse.
Rebirth. Reborn. Refresh. Renew. Re Up. Revamp. Revise. Restore. Do Re Mi and all that good stuff.
Begin again. Begat once more. Circles spin like spirals like my curls fall, bounce, spring to life. Black to brown to bronze to copper to gold to platinum and I—
Sit still. And still I sit. And I consider that the past has past and I am free of it. Freedom, that's all it's ever been. Is it no wonder I chose him? To bring me here, to this, to all it has ever been. I can dig it.
I haven't written because I could not write. I had used words to slit my wrists and let the blood pour forth. And I loved it. And I loathed it. And I couldn't help myself. I was in too deep.
The warm splash and the earthy smell and the sticky icky feeling as it slid across my skin. I had splattered myself across the clean white walls and drew broken hearts, teardrops, barbed wires, spirits and ghosts.
It had been a cruel pleasure that I loved and hated with every breath until the tide took me under and I was drowning in it. I had to stop and so I did, and I focused my energies on my salvation, that is, on photography. On photography books. On the printed page. On the place where the left and right brain tango into outer space.
And that grounded me in what had been lost, in who I've always been but had burned to ground and from that arose my spirit animal in feathered form. And for months, I went this way and that, always writing but never writing because I could not. Or would not. Because I didn't know how to write of myself without opening a vein.
Until the other day when I finally grabbed a pen and started to journal once more. It had been months, quite nearly a year, and as I lifted the seal, it began to pour forth. Like a bottle of wine, it had to sit still and still it sat. And as I pop the cork I consider my path.
It is ever evolving, this. Me. I begin again, like the card says, a Botticelli pieta.
imagination is more important than knowledge
April 26, 2012
A person starts to live when he can live outside himself.
Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.
The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit
to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.
It is the source of all true art and all science.
He to whom this emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe,
is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.

Tami Gosnell — Whipping Post Audition
Tami Gosnell sings Whipping Post in Memphis. Yeah!
(Video clip after the jump)
Got Something to Add?
i can feel my resolve wavering. maybe i should just resist these posts, rickey.
This girl is my absolute favorite out of all the people we saw audition. I would be a real shame if she didn't make the top 24.
I just heard an interesting tidbit on two of my local radio stations that one of the top 24 for AI6 has been "uninvited". Anyone know if this is true?
on the Spoilers...yeah, I agree. Great that you found the info, but for those who enjoy watching and being surprised, it would be awesome if you would highlight with
SPOILER ALERT or something, so we don't have to find out on the board. I was looking forward to watching her journey.
This may have been my favorite audition ever in the 3 or so years I've watched the audition shows. (I closed my eyes and listened, and wanted to buy a CD of her singing right then and there.)
I hope the spoiler was incorrect. However, I can't imagine her being much good on those cheesy "Up with People" production numbers they make them do in groups in the next round. I was thinking last night that if they paired her with guys like Sundance, she might survive.
Oh well I hope she gets enough exposure to find a record deal somewhere.
(PS: on spoilers--can you maybe just post the link for those who want the surprised spoiled and leave the rest of us in ignorant bliss?)
Okay, I just found the spoiler site on the internet and apparently, Tami didn't make the top 24. That's a shame. She offered variety among the female vocalists. AI always does this to the women--they pick all sound alikes, with the exception of the little bit of country they allow. The great Janis Joplin wouldn't make their ill-informed cut.
Wouldn't it be great if this year's "rocker" was a woman?? Yeah!! I love it!
Here's another video of her, singing another song. It's pretty good.
I thought she was completely awesome. I loved her earnestness and I thought she had a great voice.
I loved this girl too. As soon as she walked in and began to speak with her slightly raspy voice...I immediately thought of Janis Joplin...then when she began to sing...I said yep.
Then Simon put the cherry on top when he said she reminded him of the 60s. ;)
She was captivating with that earnest look and, of all things, a big "John Denver" smile, and probably the easiest flowing voice in the contest. I cant put her in front of Melinda Dolittle and Chris Sligh as my favorites--or maybe I can...I cant decide, but they are the only ones so far that I can imagine watching week after week.
I love this gal! She's charming AND no nonsense AND she can SING. I love her presence and her huge smile. Thanks for this great audition, Tami Gosnel!

Chapter 56
"So.... you're in love with Zayn now?" Niall whispered to Rachel as they walked back into their cabins. She turned around and shook her head confused.
Nat walked up towards them and her mouth was round. "Oh my god Niall. You don't just ask people if they're in love with someone."
"Okay Nat? You've really gotta stop watching 'Mean Girls'!"
"That was NOT from Mean Girls!"
"Umm yess it was!"
"CAN WE ALL JUST SHUT UP FOR A SECOND!" Rachel announced to break up their argument.
"What the hell though? Where did you get that I was in love with Zayn?"
Niall shrugged like what he said was no big deal. "I don't know. I just assumed it since he saved you and all and you went all crazy when he was in the hospital."
Rachel moved back while she let the rest of the guys get into their cabins while she stayed outside to talk to Niall. "That doesn't mean I love him. I care for him because he's my friend. Just like you!"
Niall chuckled to himself. "Rach, we all know the truth, I've told you this before. Even you may not know it, but deep down inside... you really do have a special feeling for Zayn. I'm not trying to mess up anything between you and Harry, or whatever you had, but I'm just stating the truth."
Great. Now each one of her friends was even beginning to realize it, and Rachel still didn't know herself. She knew she did have a special place in her heart for Zayn that wasn't so important a while back. All these mixed emotions though, she just didn't know. Rachel smiled.
"Thank you for that Niall, but I think it's getting quite late now. It's been a long day and I think we all need our sleep."
"Stop denying it your changing the topic!" Niall pointed his finger at her.
Rachel shoved him playfully and laughed. "Oh shut up Nialler!"
"Thanks Danielle for letting me share your cabin with you. I had nowhere else to sleep." Rachel thanked her, while she unpacked her bags and folded all her clothes into Danielle's closet.
"No problem babe, I'm so sorry for everything.. You lost all your stuff along with the cabin. This is the least I could do." She added sympathetically.
Rachel brightened. At least in these desperate times, she always had Danielle with her.
"Thank you so much Dan, really. I'm lucky I left these bags of clothes at Nat's cabin. We had a sleepover a while back and I forgot some of my clothes there. This is all I've got left. I'm so lucky though.... you have not seen Kate's rage attack yet. It's the end of the world when Kate's lots all of her most prized possession... her fashion accessories."
"Oh man, I really don't wanna even try and imagine that one."
Rachel laughed and continued putting her stuff away.
Danielle sat down on the bed next to her. "So, do you have any idea where Louis, Kate, and Harry are staying?"
Danielle asked taking a bite from her apple. "Well, I have no idea about Kate, she can go sleep at the beach for all I care... but Louis staying with Eleanor, and Harry... well he's probably with Lauren."
Rachel's face fell. He was with Lauren, she knew it. Clearly he had moved on and had no interest in waiting for her. Danielle hugged her lightly.
"I'm sorry hun. You're going through so much right now. First Zayn, the fire, and all the Harry drama, I feel so bad."
Rachel forced a smile on her face to keep herself from crying. "No, it's alright. I'm perfectly fine. Don't you worry."
Danielle crossed her arms, not convinced one bit at what Rachel was telling her. Then, there was a loud knock at the door.
"I'll answer it don't worry." Rachel flashed one last quick smile at her and walked towards the door.
"I'm going to go get some sleep now though Rach, I'm really tired. Goodnight!"
"Goodnight Danielle."
She unlatched the lock, and open opened the door. She was surprised at who she saw. It was... Stephanie.
"Steph? Hey, what brings you here? Come on in."
Rachel stepped aside to let her walk in. She wanted to be careful, and extra kind after Zayn had told her about Stephanie having cancer. The thought still shocked her mind completely, but she had to make it look natural. Stephanie's facial expression looked tense and worried. She wasn't the usual, pretty and cute Steph she was.
