Odessa, Florida -- From his son's home, Bruce Cooper tells 10 Connects over the phone that his family has called off their search efforts to find Marquis.
Bruce Cooper says new information came to light late last night that made the family believe Marquis is gone.
The family says, as Nick Schuyler continues to get better, his recollection becomes more clear by the day. Bruce Cooper says Schuyler recently gave authorities a more detailed account of what happened in those final moments while the men were hanging on to the capsized boat.
"His [Schuyler's] recollection of the facts are believable to us," said Bruce Cooper.
Cooper did not want to elaborate on what that new information is but says authorities will release it soon.
While this is a devastating reality for the family, Bruce Cooper said, "I'm just thankful Nick Schuyler is clear-minded enough now to give a detailed account of what really happened."
The Cooper family, led by Marquis' father Bruce, has been reaching out to the media for help in their own private search since Tuesday - when the Coast Guard called off its search for the remaining three missing boaters.
Within the past two days, ten planes were in the air and roughly twenty-five boats were in the water, helping the family with their own search and rescue efforts.
Today, the Cooper family says they will not speak in front of any cameras. "Our family cannot handle anything of that nature right now," said Bruce Cooper.
The family says they will not hold a memorial in the Bay area and asks the community to "memorialize him [Marquis] in their own hearts."
For a father who was holding out hope that his son was still alive, now facing the reality that he is gone, Bruce Cooper said, "The only thing that's going to heal us is time."
Cooper told 10 Connects he will stay in the Bay area through the weekend. He wants to stay with Marquis' wife and three-year-old daughter to help tie up loose ends with their Odessa house and their belongings - most of which are in storage because Marquis was set to start training with the Oakland Raiders next week.
Bruce Cooper says he will probably leave sometime next week because his daughter Danielle, who is a sophomore at the University of Arizona, needs to get back to school.

After much deliberation and inner debate, I decided I just couldn't justify spending the money right now to have a hitch receiver installed on my car and then buying a rack that costs way more than a trunk mount.
Of course, there were concerns for my car's paint job with a trunk mount. But, I decided if I make sure the contact points of the car and rack are really clean, maybe all would be well.
So, I recently purchased the Saris bones 3 bike rack so I could carry my bike and my two sons' bikes a little distance away to a nice place to ride.
Today I'm ready to load them up and yep, you guessed it, their bikes won't fit. *sigh*
It was something I was concerned about, but not being the most spatially gifted person, thought maybe with a little effort it would fit. But NEITHER of them will. Oh, mine works like a champ. LBS said there may be a bar we could use to get them to fit. The bars I'm guessing for a step through frame I've read about. My problem is, will their frames be too small and will there be room on their bikes for this? as they're not step through frames, just smaller MTN-type bikes.
Anyone know of a solutions other than my having paid money for this rack and still having to end up using my husband's monstrous truck when I want to take my boys for a ride?

This super bulky 100% wool is a one plied roving yarn with an interesting twist. A white binding surrounds the roving, and is wrapped more tightly at varying intervals so that the yarn goes from wide to narrow, giving the yarn a uniquely textured appearance. With this lofty wool, you can make fast-finish dramatic scarves, cowls or home décor by using large needles and hooks. Or, arm knit with this to make one cowl in about 30 minutes or less!

I have a old Bianchi Limited that is a six speed double chain ring with DT friction shifters. I currently investigating what it would take to upgrade to STI type shifters.
I assume I will need more components than just the brifters. From the online shops that I've looked at brifters tend to only come in 7+ speed arrangements. So will I need a new wheel set? Rear derailer? Front derailer? Chain ring?
Thanks for any help.

Hi all,
I have a Nexus-8 hub, and I am planning on getting bullhorn handlebars with a JTek bar-end shifter to go in the end. The JTek site says that it has a "24mm & 22.2mm clamp-on design."
So I found a pair of bullhorns that look quite good, and they say they are "24mm bars for 25.4mm (1") brakes."
What exactly does that mean? Will they fit a 24mm clamp or not?
Also, slightly more off-topic, does anyone have good recommendations for picking out bullhorn handlebars? So few of the bike shops around here carry them that it's hard to get a good feel for what dimensions/styles are good, and I can't find any guides online.

Where the gold REALLY went:
Phuck yoo Phrenchie
Four things are happening recently that I don't like at all.
I don't like the creeping narrative about depositor bail-ins, I don't like the TBTF coordinated witch hunt against Reinhart & Rogoff , I don't like the attempted slamming of precious metal buyers and I don't like what has happened to BitCoin.
If I were a fringe low brow ZH conspiracy theorist, I would say the timing, all in April, almost looks coordinated. Suddenly, per the MSM, it's bad to be a fiscal realist, it's bad to have deposits instead of stocks, its bad to own PM because you don't trust the system and its bad to use digital currency.
And these subjects will all be dealt with by me accordingly.
As if there aren't enough things that I dislike.
Low Brow? I can take some credit for that on the net. Even stated, given the MNGOP conventions that I have been delegate to in the past on behalf of Ron Paul, at my own expense, I would posit that we are rather High Brow in nature instead.
We all have our own style on this thread I believe.
We may be high, but we are described as lo by the clown geniuses who live at the Keynesian TBTF PhD big top circus.
Now get back to surfing PM porn and ammo deals, you fringe lo-brow ZH moron!
"Suddenly, per the MSM, it's bad to be a fiscal realist, it's bad to have deposits instead of stocks, its bad to own PM because you don't trust the system and its bad to use digital currency."
Take heart dear William, it's also bad to watch the LSM and the people know it.
Tune in and turn off the TV!
The big POTUS / Bankster CEO meeting the day before Gold and Silver got slammed was quite a coincidence. But I don't believe in coincidences....
Good one
the feds and POTUS have had a terrific year, up over 10% in the markets so far. they can sit back from direct intervention and jawbone investors to make them stay in equities while the seasonal tendency is to sell. the opposite of buy stocks save yourself, is sell stocks and die. same message different incentives. good cop bad cop, you know
"I don't like the creeping narrative of the bail-in."
I'm afraid it is not creeping. It is already all there and for all to see:
The Financial Stability Board (FSB) develops the policy makers' strategic response to the banking crisis and directs its legal and institutional implementation:
The FSB Plenary is comprised of the most senior representatives from Central Banks, Finance Ministries as well as from the main international bodies governing finance (FSB's current chairman is Mark Carney, his predecessor was Mario Draghi):
The FSB developed the so-called Bail-In. The main working paper is "Key Attributes of Effective Resolution Regimes for Financial Institutions." It is candid and succinct. Specifically view points 3.5 & 3.6 titled: Bail-in within resolution:
The last progress report leaves no doubt that the Bail-In is indeed a template for a great many jurisdictions, including the US and the EU:
It's creeping into the MSM narrative, which means its off the drawing board and in the propaganda machine.
The next message? If you arenot a good prole and run on the Ponzi deposit treadmill, the whole system will collapse. You don't want to cause that do you?
Oh, I almost forgot, I don't like Krugman.
who does?
krugman currency please.
Yes I thought U forgot someone
Can't stop laughing
@ williambanzai7:
First off, kudos to you, on your wonderful artwork!
If you ask me, people should be scared of the creeping bail-in narrative. Here's one paper from the FDIC/BoE.
I can't find it on my pc, but the FSB also put a paper out, where they pretty much spell it out.
I can't tell anyone what to do, but I wish ZH readers would disseminate this information outside of ZH and other financial websites. Get it into the hands of family and friends, and explain what it means, and how it affects them.
The more people get wise to it, the better off we'll all be.
Sounds kind of ominous that the FED is titled the
"U.S. regime"
"U.S. regime"
You are very right. FSB documents leave no room for doubt that the bail-in is supposed to be implemented everywhere.
Here is a link to the document you may have been looking for on your pc:
This is very troubling indeed.
There is no good reason to deposit your money with their banks and they persecute you for suggesting PM is a sound alternative! Now I most certainly never considered myself a PM zealot, however...
"I got this moron thing that I do. Its called thinking..."-RIP Brother George Carlin
The gentleman currently running the show at the Financial Stability Board is Mark Carney (his predecessor was Mario Draghi). I don't believe you have as yet featured him in your great artwork. He is certainly important enough.
@ misterbanzai7
There is no good reason to deposit your money with their banks...
slight correction: There is no good reason to become an unsecured creditor of their banks...
I disagree. WB7 was correct with "There is no good reason to deposit your money with their banks..." Being 'secured' is next to meaningless. There's not enough funds backing the FDIC for secured deposits when another system wide event like 2008 occurs. Keep just enough in there to maintain min balances and cover monthly bills. Keep everything else out; starve the banks.
that's correct. there were (and are not) enough funds backing FDIC in 2008/2009 to make whole. and are not today for the next show.
2008 to the tune of 18 billion dolllars, which the treasury printed up and handed to the FDIC and they passed along to the 'losers'. from what i understand, the FDIC (via fees paid in by participating banks) have made paid that back to the treasury via the FDIC.
please correct me if i'm wrong.
that was on deposits of 100k per account. they upped it to 250k.
this time is going to be A LOT OF FUN
@ Lotsoffun & Williambanzai7:
FDIC has $25 Billion in "Deposit Insurance"
Deposits are around $9.4 Trillion
The FDIC uppped the insurance from $100,000 - $250,000 on the heels of Lehman, to keep a bank run from happening.
At the time the 'insurance coverage' was per account, meaning that say you had $1M on deposit, you could split it up 4 ways and be 100% covered.
Recently, the FDIC changed it to $250,000 TOTAL, linked through your social security #.
their website is actually very good. https://www2.fdic.gov/drrip/afi/index.asp
you can check for yourself. also - the 'bargain real estate' propertys can be fun. before the wall street hedge funds starting buying everything, i made me think about spending only $5,000.00 to buy a lot with a stripped house on it in detroit or likewise places.
As I understand it there can't possibly be enough money if we have a full blown "systemic event". Frankly, I'm not sure there would be enough if one of those TBTF pigs blows.
Unfortunately, it is getting harder to find a local bank as opposed to a TBTF skimming operation.

Wire services are reporting the former Canadian marathoner and PowerBar founder, Brian Maxwell, died Friday of a heart attack. He was 51 years-old.
According to the Canadian Press Association, Maxwell collapsed at a post office in San Anselmo, Calif., and emergency rescue personnel were unable to revive him. He died at a local hospital.
Maxwell developed the PowerBar with his wife, Jenny, and the couple built it into a major global brand, eventually selling the company to Nestlé in 2000 for USD 375 million.
Maxwell was named to the 1980 Canadian Olympic marathon team, but never competed in the Games because of the U.S.-led boycott. Canadian Press reported that Maxwell was the #3-ranked marathoner in the world in the 1977 Track & Field News rankings.
According to Athletics Canada, Maxwell had a marathon personal best of 2:14:43 set in Seaside, Ore., USA in 1977. That made him #19 on the Canadian all-time list.

Ok I ran into a problem, first I'll give a summary:
-I have an American passport and a Polish passport, I'm in UK through being from the EU.
-Both passports just expired.
-Having HUGE problems renewing them and not sure I will be able to do it within the next year...
-I need photo ID for UKCAT but on the website it says I can use a provisional license.
Can I get a provisional license with a birth certificate?
Secondly, will I NEED a passport for when I go to university or can I somehow pass by without a passport and just a provisional license and birth certificate as that is all I got (well I don't got provisional license but if I can get it)? Because I'm foreign and in UK through my polish passport as I'm here as a EU person, do I need to prove I'm legally here?? How would I do this???????????
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it as I'm stressing so much worrying if I will have to be forced into a gap year or not.
Photo ID help and University help! PLEASE!

Bein an EU citizen you have no need to prove youre legally here as by definition you are so dont worry about that
for getting the passports i cant believe it would take up to a year?! just go down to the embassies and they all have emergency issuing procedures if you desperatly need one and you can get one within a day, maybe the same day [itll cost you though..]
provision license im not sure about though as i think you need to be a citizen of the UK to get one [npot to sure on that though] you could always order a polish one and then have it mailed to your UK residence though?
Photo ID isnt to bad though you should be able to order one of those citizen cards with the pass logo which is legal ID
and finally when you say you need one for uni is this just for getting served or do they demand to see a passport? being the former just get a citizen card or the like as theyll work just as fine and for the latter there will be a list of acceptable forms of ID and i believe even an expired passport should work, unless you look very different in the picture? Birth certificates on their own dont usually work though as youll need photo proof aswell maybe a uni card would work ?
Good luck with your problems though!

Watching the service and seeing how Marco's father embraced rivals Jorge and Dovi said it all for me. Just a wonderful man with an amazing son!
My heart goes out to his girlfriend Kate most of all. I hadn't realised they had been together for such a long time and you can see a girl who's hopes and dreams have been ripped away. The scenes of her in the box on Sunday were just shattering and when she spoke of going back to their house the other night and trying to talk to him, well it's just so very sad.
Ciao Marco.

Hyundai, Ford Take Car, Truck of the Year Awards
The Hyundai Genesis was named the 2009 North American Car of the Year, while Ford Motor Co.'s F-150 was named truck of the year at the Detroit auto show on Sunday.
The Genesis is a large luxury sedan developed by Hyundai to compete with Lexus, Mercedes and other brands, but at a lower price. It has earned top reviews from automotive critics and sold well in its first few months on the market.
The Ford F-150 has been the top-selling vehicle in the U.S. for the last decade and has won the truck award two previous times. With the latest model, Ford sought to improve the interior design and fuel economy.
The finalists for the car award were the Ford Flex, Hyundai Genesis and the Volkswagen Jetta TDI. The truck finalists were the Dodge Ram, the Ford F-150 and the Mercedes-Benz ML320 BlueTEC. The Genesis received 189 points, the Flex received 180 and the Jetta TDI received 131. The F-150 received 259 points, the Ram received 167 points and the Mercedes received 74 points.
The awards were made by a panel of 50 U.S. and Canadian automotive journalists. They are based on factors that include innovation, design, safety, handling, driver satisfaction and value for the dollar. Because the vehicles are new, reliability is not a factor. – David Patton

I was just wondering what Taylor Lautner was up to, and here we are.
Taylor was spotted on the set of Tracers today (June 18, 2013) in New York City doing all types of action movies – from jump to bike riding to lifting up his shirt. Sounds like this movie will have some thrills!
The film co-stars Canadian actress Marie Avgeropoulos who plays Nikki, a skater girl who runs with a gang of street criminals. She meets Lautner's bike messenger Cam and pulls him into her world – and, naturally, into a love triangle with a member of her crew.
Are you excited for Taylor's new action film? Do you think it will be any good? Sound off in the comments below.
Check out all the pics of Taylor in action on the set of Tracersby launching the gallery.

Inside the Huddle
Stanford plays host to UCLA on Friday in the second annual Pac-12 Football Championship Game (FCG). The Cardinal comes into the game as the Pac-12 North Division winner with an 8-1 conference record, while the Bruins topped the Pac-12 South Division at 6-3. This is the first Pac-12 FCG for Stanford and second for UCLA.
Friday's winner will receive an automatic berth in the 2013 Rose Bowl, to be played Jan. 1 in Pasadena, Calif. The Pac-12 Champion will face the winner of Saturday's Big 10 Football Championship Game between Nebraska and Wisconsin.
Last Saturday, Stanford defeated UCLA, 35-17. This rematch six days later will represent the first time the two schools have played twice in a season and the first single-season repeat opponent for Stanford since the rugby era of a century ago.
Stanford and UCLA are the first opponents in college football history to play in their regular season finale and follow the next week with a conference championship game rematch.
No. 16 UCLA is the fourth consecutive ranked foe for Stanford. The Cardinal's victories in each of the last three weeks over No. 15 UCLA, No. 1 Oregon and No. 13 Oregon State represent the first time in school history Stanford has defeated a ranked opponent in three consecutive games.
Stanford currently ranks No. 1 in the NCAA in rushing defense (71.33 yards/game), sacks (4.42/game) and tackles for loss (9.25/game). Stanford also owns the 11th-best scoring defense (16.92 points/game) and eighth-best third-down defensive efficiency (29.53 percent).
UCLA ranks 118th of 120 FBS schools in sacks allowed (3.58/game) and 117th in tackles for loss allowed (8.00/game). Last week, the Bruins suffered seven sacks and nine tackles for loss at the hands of the Cardinal.
Senior RB Stepfan Taylor (4,134) crossed 4,000 career rushing yards last week at UCLA and stands 35 yards shy of Darrin Nelson's school record (4,169).
The Cardinal has won 12 of its last 13 games played in November dating back to Nov. 28, 2009.
Two-time Pac-12 Coach of the Year and Bradford M. Freeman Director of Football David Shaw is the first Stanford coach to win 10 games in each of his first two seasons at the helm.
Stanford has won at least 10 games in three consecutive seasons, a first in school history. A win Friday would elevate the streak to three straight seasons with 11 or more wins, a feat which could only be matched by four other teams (Boise State, LSU, Northern Illinois and Oregon) by the end of this season.
No. 8 Stanford has been ranked by the Associated Press for a school-record 45 consecutive polls, two weeks ago breaking its previous best AP Poll appearance streak of 43 weeks (1969-72).
The Cardinal seniors come into Friday's postseason game for a second "last home game" of their career and have the opportunity to improve upon their 24-2 record at Stanford Stadium over the last four years.
Stanford owns active winning streaks against 10 of its 12 regular season 2012 opponents: San Jose State (W5), Duke (W3), USC (W4), Arizona (W3), Cal (W3), Washington State (W5), Colorado (W4), Oregon State (W3), Oregon (W1) and UCLA (W4). The Cardinal lost its most recent games to Washington and Notre Dame.

Leading 21-10, the Cardinal broke the game open by scoring twice in a 13-second span midway through the third quarter. Taylor scored on a one-yard run and Alex Debniak forced a UCLA fumble on the ensuing kickoff as Usua Amanam returned it 11 yards for another touchdown.
A Look Back at UCLA - Nov. 24, 2012
No. 11 Stanford dispatched No. 15 UCLA at the Rose Bowl last Saturday, 35-17, to clinch the Pac-12 North Division title and claim the right to play host the 2012 Pac-12 Football Championship Game.
The Cardinal scored two touchdowns in the span of 13 seconds in the third quarter to build a 35-10 lead and put the Bruins away. Senior RB Stepfan Taylor ran in a one-yard touchdown before fifth-year senior OLB Alex Debniak hit the UCLA kickoff returner on the next play, forcing a fumble that senior NB Usua Amanam recovered and ran back 11 yards into the end zone.
Taylor rushed for 142 yards and two touchdowns on just 20 carries, racing to a 49-yard touchdown in the second quarter and later 40 yards to set up his one-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Taylor rested the last quarter and a half of play.
Taylor set a school record with his 21st 100-yard game. The Cardinal is 18-3 when Taylor reaches the century mark in rushing yards.
Taylor's 19-yard scamper on the first series of the game broke the 4,000-yard mark for his career. Taylor passed 3,000 yards earlier this season vs. USC.
Junior RB Anthony Wilkerson saw his most action and delivered his greatest production of the season: 48 yards and a touchdown on 13 carries. Wilkerson's 10-yard score in the second quarter came from the wildcat quarterback position.
Sophomore QB Kevin Hogan made his third start under center, notching his third win against consecutive ranked opponents. Hogan threw for 160 yards and one touchdown with no interceptions on 15 of 22 passing.
Hogan's 11-yard touchdown pass to senior WR Drew Terrell in the first quarter was the first of his Cardinal career connecting with a wide receiver. Hogan's previous seven touchdowns each were distributed to tight ends and running backs.
Senior TE Zach Ertz led the Cardinal in receiving for the seventh time this season with five receptions for 71 yards. Ertz moved into first place all-time among Stanford tight ends for single-season receptions (63) and receiving yards (818).
The Stanford defense recorded seven sacks among nine tackles for loss. The second sack of the game by junior DE Josh Mauro in the first quarter was the Cardinal's 48th this season, tying the school record set in 1999. Senior DE Ben Gardner made an eight-yard sack late in the second quarter to break Stanford's single-season sacks record. Gardner, who wears No. 49, recorded sack No. 49 on the season.
Junior DT David Parry made his first career start and led the team in solo tackles (five), including a fourth-quarter sack, plus a pass breakup.
Fifth-year senior OLB Chase Thomas notched a season-high 2.0 sacks, pushing his career total to 25.5 for fourth all-time in the Stanford record books.
The Cardinal defense corralled dual-threat UCLA QB Brett Hundley and did not allow him a positive rushing play until the final drive of the third quarter. Hundley came into the game having gained 537 yards rushing on the season.
The Stanford defense limited UCLA to 73 rushing yards and Doak Walker Award finalist Johnathan Franklin to 65 yards, half of his 131-yard average. Eight of Stanford's 12 opponents this season have been held under 100 yards rushing.
The victory over UCLA extended Stanford's wining streak to four straight games over the Bruins. The Cardinal has recorded a clean sweep of its Los Angeles rivals - UCLA and USC - each of the last four seasons. Stanford has also notched a school-best three straight years of the California sweep against UCLA, USC and Cal.
Junior K/P Ben Rhyne was called to action for the first punts of his career after fifth-year senior P Daniel Zychlinski was knocked out of the game. Rhyne averaged 39.0 yards/punt with a long of 42.

While most students are on vacation for the summer, some at Crestwood Elementary are already back in the books for summer school.
"Many of our students do need this to go to the next grade level," says 4th grade teacher Dixie Pigford. "They just need it to reinforce and some students are here that are getting reinforcement for the next year and they're fully capable and they're just getting some extra work so they'll be ahead of the game."
With the structure of summer school, teachers say getting ahead of the game is a lot easier to do.
"To me I just feel like it's a smaller group and you can work well with children when you're in smaller groups," says kindergarten teacher Janice Larkin.
With summer school set to end June 24 and regular school set to begin a little over a month later on August 4, some might think that the students are missing out for the summer. However, the teachers we talked to say the sacrifice is well worth it!
"It gives us time for remediation and it gives us time for reinforcement where they don't regress during the summer period," says Pigford. "This gives them a little extra edge and they don't seem to forget as much."
This is something which Pigford says can make a great difference between making an "A," "B," or even a "D" when school resumes this fall.

John Mayer On Ex-Girlfriends: 'I Was Just A Jerk'
February 08, 2013 02:00 PM by Stephanie Gustafson
John Mayer has made some pretty controversial statements about ex-girlfriends in the past, what with calling Fashion Star mentor Jessica Simpson "sexual napalm" and criticizing Taylor Swift for engaging in "cheap songwriting." But the singer is now ready to admit that he really hasn't treated his lady friends all that well.
Few celebrities are criticized for their love lives (and their less-than-kind remarks about their love lives) more than John Mayer. The singer has taken plenty of flak for a 2010 Playboy interview in which he compared former girlfriend Jessica Simpson to "crack cocaine" and then added, "Sexually it was crazy. That's all I'll say."
John also took some heat in 2012, when he responded angrily to a Taylor Swift song entitled, "Dear John." We did actually sympathize with him in this instance, as Taylor has become notorious about including not-so-subtle details about past relationships in her lyrics. And although she called him "presumptuous" for assuming the song was written about him, it's a natural assumption to make given its title.
While he didn't directly apologize to either Jessica Simpson or Taylor Swift, John Mayer was at least willing to own up to past mistakes during a recent interview with CBS Sunday Morning."I was just a jerk," he admitted, explaining that his poor behavior stemmed from a need to be liked by all. It's very liberating when you finally realize it's impossible to make everyone like you. "I wanted everybody to like me. I thought I was one shuck and jive away in every direction"
We're not sure how John Mayer would ever think that some of the things he said could make anyone like him, but hey, this is probably the closest to apology we'll ever hear from him.

He is still just a jerk and why women find him attractive is beyond me. I can't stand his face.
