communication system. In the past several seasons we have gone through
multiple systems and finally we have found a system that provides the audio
clarity, reliability and ease of use that we need and want. Now we no longer
worry about when or if our headsets will go out, it is awesome to be able to
focus on what matters... our players and our game plan."

gave us throughout the season was outstanding. The last thing a coaching staff
wants to worry about on game night is headsets and Oshkosh North High School
never worried about this system."

coach has an option to be on either side or talk to the whole group at his leisure.
At Lincoln High School, we feel we have an advantage. We know our headsets
are clear and dependable."
– Don Havens
Offensive Coordinator
Lincoln High School

we never worried about their performance in bad weather or on the road...and
if I am not having to think about getting headsets to work I have more focus on
the game."
– Coach Doug Allison
Mathews High School
Mathews, VA
"The HME headphones that we purchased during the middle of the
season were head and shoulders above any product that I have used,
at the college and or high school levels. After purchasing the headphones,
we actually won 4 out of 5 games down the stretch... amazing what some
consistent communication will do for a program."

One of the gripes I have with life in the modern world is that celebrities are often too protected by armies of handlers for the stupendously dumb things many of them say and think to be allowed to trickle out into the world. Sure, Twitter has helped to crack open the door to the treasure trove of celebrity stupidity that exists out there, but even that has been cracked down upon by the folks paid to mold celebrity image and perception (See Ashton Kutcher's PR team taking over his account as an example).
But every now and then a nice, shiny rhetorical turd will flow from a celebrity's lips and escape the impenetrable bubble of insulation many of them exist in. Such is the case today with Mark Wahlberg, who wants to let it be known that if he were on a plane on 9/11, he would have acted a whole lot differently than those quivering little Marys who couldn't save themselves after they were unfortunate enough to book the wrong flights that dreadful day. No, the artist formerly known as Marky Mark would have killed the terrorists, and then landed the plane safely, just like a hero in a movie!
"If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn't have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first-class cabin and then me saying, 'OK, we're going to land somewhere safely, don't worry.'"
You see, where Gwyneth Paltrow only saved a life on 9/11, Mark Wahlberg would have saved ALL OF THE LIVES!
So the question of the day, dear UPROXX reader, is this: What other events/happenings do you wish Mark Wahlberg would have prevented? Let the Entourage jokes flow through the comment thread like cheap wine!

WOD – CORBINE CLs – A4
This one is a nice one folks. This is a cardio blast for my alpha team members as well as GTfit members. This is a core/lower body clinic or CLs. This one has two choices and is a little longer thank our usual WODs. Also, you will need timer I suggest if you have an iphone or droid download the app HIIT (High intense interval timer) The two versions splits up indoor workout and outdoor. This is a compound WOD, this will ensure you have endurance as well as strength for any given situation. DO NOT SLACK on the movements if you find them too easy do a variation – speed it up or even load up with some added weights if you have dumbells, etc. If you find them too easy hit me up.
Also folks taking donations if anyone is kind enough to spare something for GTfit. I am putting together a cash fund to get more equipment. Every little penny helps. I have a paypal set-up – just donate as a GIFT rather than sending me money. Also, it helps fund for more crazy training. Anyway, embrace the moment! – LIFT = Live Inspire Fight Triumph
So be ready to take out a bucket.
Let's evolve in….3,2,1……GO!
WOD – A4 – CORBINE CLs
(25) Power jacks – **use A2 as reference for movement

rest – 2mins
Movement time =0:30 secs each movement (Alpha) / 1:00 min (Gamma)
Rounds = 3 Rounds (Alpha) / 6 Rounds (Gamma)

text: Posted March 11, 2013 · Report post Hi. I've been taking 30mg/day of Roaccutane for 2 months+2 weeks. I would say that my face has cleared 70-80% (I had acne for 9 years, ranging from mild to moderately severe). My dermatologist decided to lower the dose starting next week: 20mg/day. My lab test results were all good though, and the side effects I experienced were only mild (dry lips, dry skin, that's it). Derma said to try the 20mg dose for 2 weeks and if all goes well continue it, otherwise get back to 30mg. A few questions: Would there be an IB when the dose is lowered? I think this might be too low for me (I weigh 50kg). Anyone else out there who tried it? I kept seeing people who have their dosages increased as months passed, instead of decreased. I'm scared my acne will come back again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

America Could Care Less If There Were 'Snakes on a Plane'
The massively buzzed about movie "Snakes on a Plane" is big box office appointment. The film opened with a modest $15.5 million at the box office. While the film only cost $30 million to make, it will certainly make money, but industry experts were expecting the film to at least earn $30 million in it's first weekend in theaters.
Did the mega-hype hurt the film's box office, or did everyone just like to talk about the film, but really had no intention of seeing it?
New Line's Tuckerman said "Snakes on a Plane" would turn in a solid profit but that he did not know why the movie failed to live up to its Internet hype.
"I think people were more excited about the marketing than the actual movie," said Dergarabedian of Exhibitor Relations. "New Line did not set out to create this Internet buzz. That's actually a marketer's dream, but when marketing translates into awareness but does not inspire people to get out from behind their computers and into the theater, that's a problem."

Hollywood tough guy ROBERT CONRAD is 79, but he says he's beating the odds and is still fighting fit.
In an exclusive interview, the rugged actor – who's been spotted looking woozy and wearing pajama bottoms in public – said he's not fading into the sunset anytime soon.
"I'm doing great!" declared Conrad, handsome star of the long-ago hit TV series "Hawaiian Eye," "The Wild Wild West" and "Black Sheep Squadron."
"I'm feeling fabulous! I had a birthday party with my children last night, and we had a lot of fun."
Conrad's only complaint is lingering pain in his right arm and side due to a head-on car crash in 2003 because, stupidly, he'd been boozing. He pleaded no contest to drunk driving in the accident, and was sentenced to five years' probation and house arrest.
"I only have marginal use of my right arm, but it's getting better," Conrad said, annoyed he "can't do two of the things that I love – surf and box. If I can get rehabilitated to do those things, I'll be happy."
Asked whether he's suffered any other major medical problems associated with aging, he said: "Oh, that's nonsense! I haven't had any strokes. And Alzheimer's? Oh, please! I've got an agent, and I'm still directing and producing. I'm 79, but my phone never stops ringing!"
Conrad played a private investigator in "Hawaiian Eye" from 1959 to 1963, secret agent James West in "Wild Wild West" from 1965 to 1970, and WWII flying ace Pappy Boyington in "Black Sheep Squadron" from 1976 to 1978.
Today he lives in Malibu, and hosts a weekly radio call-in show on CRN Digital Talk Radio.
The show "has the largest listening audience for Thursday – 250 radio stations with 11 million listeners!" he boasted. "In six years, I've missed the show just four times."
As for the pajama bottoms that he's been seen wearing, the legendary star has a good explanation. They're incredibly comfortable.
"I LOVE those pajamas!" Conrad said. "My daughter Chelsea bought me five pairs and I've been wearing them all the time."
Conrad's agent says his Hollywood career is booming. "Bob's going to direct a film this year called 'Past Due,' " Cheryl Murphy of Spectrum Entertainment said.
"He's also very active with personal appearances and autograph signings. He's doing the Memphis Film Festival in May and Comicon in Texas."
The actor's publicist, Carlos Martinez of Scribe Services Public Relations, added that Conrad, of course, "looks older than fans remember him from his TV days. But he remains healthy and energetic."
Conrad added: "I'm not on my last legs, and I'm a very happy guy. Tell everyone that I feel great!"

Propane gas, open flame torch likely cause of Sanford clinic explosion in Moorhead
MOORHEAD – Fire officials here have determined the cause of an explosion that delayed the opening of the new Sanford Clinic in south Moorhead.
The explosion on Feb. 24 was likely caused by the accidental ignition of propane in an elevator shaft, set off by an open flame torch being used by a contractor, according to a news release from Chad Stangeland, assistant fire marshal.
At the time of the explosion, a contractor was using a propane torch to dry up water in the bottom of an elevator shaft. Some of the gas had likely escaped into and accumulated in a nearby enclosed vault which was constructed as an elevator shaft for future growth, the release said.
The open flame torch ignited the gas, and because it was in an enclosed space, it exploded with enough force to left the concrete that was covering the future shaft, the release said.
Stangeland said in the release that the propane gas is the probable source of the explosion, but that further investigation is being done by insurance companies to determine definitively what the gas was. Natural and methane gas from sewer lines were ruled out, the release stated.
Sanford officials said recently that repairs are expected to take four to five weeks, pushing the opening into mid-April. The cost of the repairs hasn't been released.
The clinic is at 4000 28th Ave. S., near the interchange of Interstate 94 and 34th Street South.

"The plan can work only if the West is serious about doing what it takes to force both sides to accept an agreement," says TIME Central Europe bureau chief Massimo Calabresi. "Milosevic is way too wily to agree to anything unless he's absolutely forced to, and it's not clear whether even air strikes alone will be enough to force him to deal. Getting the Albanians to agree may be even more difficult, because they're anything but unified." Still, as ambitious as the NATO plan may be, the rising body count from Kosovo's pre-spring offensives is a harsh reminder of the ghastliness of the alternative.
NATO Reads Kosovo Riot Act
BELGRADE: NATO is threatening to bash Serb and ethnic Albanian heads over Kosovo, but securing a peace deal may require a substantial military effort. Thursday, the Western alliance laid down the law to both sides: Start discussing a compromise autonomy agreement within four days -- or else. The threat against the Serbs remains punishing air strikes, while the Albanian insurgents have been warned that failure to agree could lead NATO to choke their supply lines.

Again, the market lacks predictability or trend. If your time frame is a few months, my advice is to stay flexible and opportunistic. If you are trading, trade small. If your time frame is a few years, my advice is to buy weakness. Even then, keep your investment positions smaller than usual. It is especially important to be emotionless, balanced and opportunistic in the market that has no memory from day to day. There are numerous talking heads that seem so glib and talk/advise with absolute certainty -- I won't name names; you know them as they are often making appearances in the business media or are literally in the clouds of the investment blogosphere -- but the certainty they project is preposterous and dishonest, as the only thing to be certain of is a lack of certainty. In the final analysis, they are mostly affixed in perma-bullish or perma-bearish dogma, and they are unwilling to admit to the randomness of Mr. Market; they are not being truthful to themselves or to you. But, as mentioned previously, the lack of predictability does hold some opportunity but only if one is open-minded, opportunistic and willing to embrace volatility. During times like this, we need to learn, at times, to leave our collective investment brain at the door and utilize good common sense combined with a lot of nerve to trade this market, learning and being willing to catch falling knifes and short abrupt moves higher. It also means, during short periods of times, being constructively positioned when one is intellectually bearish and being short when one is inclined to be bullish of investment mind and keeping the shelf life of our holdings very short in an unpredictable and volatile backdrop. I continue to lean bearish, but, as described above, I am willing to be more trading-oriented and less investing-oriented in a market without memory from day to day.

Aiutaci: queste pornostar appaiono in questo video?
Pornstar Name:
pretty sad a guy this young can't keep it up especially with a woman like this. When I was in college, I worked a part-time job to help pay expenses. It was a mom & pop grocery store. I did mostly stocking of the shelves and a divorced older woman was pretty much the cashier, but she also helped with the fruit and veggie bins. One evening just before closing, we were working towards the back of the store putting up some items and she bumped into me 4 times, then said "I want us to fuck each other"... suprised the hell out of me, but she wasn't bad looking, so I said "let's talk about this after work". I went back to her house and no sooner than we got inside, she threw her arms around my neck, tongue thrusting inside my mouth, and grinding her pussy on my hard. That was all it took... we fucked for several hours, then I had to go home and get some studying done. For the next two years, she and I fucked several times a week and I learned a lot about women and what they want and like. I never had any problems keeping it up, like this poor guy

Palmer Bus Service will be the name attached to school buses carrying Princeton Public School students this fall rather than the current Minnesota Central Bus.
Next school year will be the fourth time the district has changed bus companies. The district for many years had the local Odegard Bus Service as its provider, until changing in the late 1990s, according to Breitkreutz. That's when the district went with Laidlaw to haul the students. That lasted four years before the district went with Peterson Bus Co., which lasted for eight years before selecting Minnesota Central.
Superintendent Rick Lahn and Director of Business Services Carol Breitkreutz referred to Minnesota Central's service overall in the past three years as "great," when they spoke to the school board Tuesday of last week. The discussion was during the board's business of making the change to Palmer Bus Service.
Aside from problems with management and bus malfunctions in Minnesota Central's first year here three years ago, Princeton school administrators have not had a problem with Minnesota Central. Minnesota Central brought in manager Chrysann Carriveau to improve communications and management and the company also remedied the problems of some buses stalling.
The catalyst for going out for bids and ending up recommending a change in bus companies turned out to be cost, Lahn explained to the board.
As a result of taking bids, the district received six of them, and Palmer Bus Service, based in North Mankato, had the low bid (for a two-year contract) of $3.76 million. Lahn and Breitkreutz said they made calls to some of the districts where Palmer Bus Service has been working and got good reviews on Palmer.
Minnesota Central actually had one year left in its second two-year contract with Princeton. But Minnesota Central informed the district in March this year that it could no longer afford to do the transportation service for Princeton at the contract's terms, according to Lahn. If Minnesota Central had agreed to finish out the two-year contract that originally went through this coming school year, it would have been for $3.43 million. Minnesota Central officials gave a quote of $3.95 million for a new two-year contract in March and then turned in a bid of $4.10 million this month.
Lahn said that when the district told Minnesota Central early this spring that it couldn't accept the amount of money that Minnesota Central said it had to have to continue the service, an official with the company suggested the district "try the market."
When the district took bids, Palmer turned up the winner, with the school board Tuesday last week approving it for a two-year contract starting this fall. Minnesota Central has agreed to honor its contract to provide summer bus transportation, Lahn said.
unhappiness over choice
Carriveau, manager of the Minnesota Central School Bus operation here, read a written response at the May 8 school board meeting regarding the district's plan to not stay with Minnesota Central.
She first expressed appreciation for having served the district the past three years and that she felt Minnesota Central gave "110 percent on service and thousands of dollars in free donated buses," along with providing quality staff and drivers, and having a "superb safety record."
She cited Minnesota Central's 99.7 percent safety rating during its time at Princeton. Carriveau then charged that "after our failure to negotiate a contractual renewal, your administration secretly held from us (a chance) to be a part of the bid selection."
Carriveau claimed that vendors were solicited and were provided bid packets and that "we weren't allowed to attend the question and answering process for a new vendor.
Both Superintendent Lahn and Business Director Breitkreutz refuted Carriveau's claim last week about Carriveau's statements on the bidding form.
"Our company understands cost factors in selecting a vendor and holds no ill will towards Palmer Bus."
Carriveau continued: "I don't believe Mr. (Tom) Watson, your transportation consultant, has been diligent in providing enough information that allowed you to select the best vendor for the district…"
The school board will have to act later to formally close the deal with Palmer. Lahn noted how the district is saving $337,726 by going with Palmer in a two-year contract versus Minnesota Central for the same period.
Palmer owner speaks
Palmer Bus Service owner Floyd Palmer and the company's chief operating officer Chris Champlin addressed the school board. Palmer told how he and wife Lois started the company in St. Clair with five buses in 1974, and have since expanded to 600 buses and are operating in 19 school locations, all in outstate Minnesota.
He called the company a "very basic" one and "not a big corporation." Its operators "understand who we work for," and the company's mission is to "provide good service to you," Palmer said.
Palmer added that he wants the local bus manager he selects to be someone who will "fit in the community and understand the process and how we run our company."
Champlin said the company wants to make the transition from Minnesota Central to Palmer "seamless" and hire the current bus drivers. "Without the school bus drivers, we have nothing." Palmer has been operating for 20-30 years in many districts, and even longer in St. Clair, Champlin noted.
Floyd Palmer, in a telephone call the next day, said that he had met with Princeton bus drivers the night before and set up a meeting with them for later this month.
Palmer had told the school board that it would find a base for its bus operation somewhere if it couldn't get the present bus barn that is now being leased to Minnesota Central. Carriveau told the board the lease goes for another year. Palmer says he is a friend of one of the owners of the bus barn property, indicting that may be in his favor for working something out.

For three days in early February the south hangar at Fantasy of Flight in Polk City, Florida, was packed with visitors. They were seated in long rows of folding chairs, and stood on the gleaming painted hangar floor. Everyone faced the raised platform near the eastern wall, paying rapt attention to the reminiscing of three elderly gentlemen who had remarkable tales to tell.
This was the first installment of the 2012 Legends and Legacies symposium series at the central Florida aviation-themed attraction. "They Dared to Fly" focused on the story of the Tuskegee Airmen, and to tell that story accurately, three graduates of the program sat at the dais and shared their memories and experiences during two sessions each day.

Unfriending on rise in social media, Pew study says
Pew Internet and American Life Project reports:
A new study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project reports that "women and younger users tend to unfriend more than others" and that profile management is up in general compared to 2009 results.
The study said 67 percent of women deleted people from their network whereas 58 percent of men pruned their friends.
About two-thirds of Internet users also use social networking sites, the study said.

Desktop icons disappeared in Linux Puppy (new install)
new to puppy, but quite impressed by it,, but all my desktop icons seem to have disappeared,, don't know why or how to get them back,, do i need to re-install?
Most times when the desktop icons poof its nothing major. try restarting x. If that does not work try a reboot. Sometimes the desktop does not load properly for me & usually restarting x will fix it.
What version of puppy are you using?
I would suggest giving as much info about what happened as possible. For example did you install an sfs file? did you install a specific program or update the graphics driver?

|Long-Term Survival With HIV: A Study of the Psychological and Behavioral Factors Associated With the Transition From Adolescence To Young Adulthood
|Brief Summary
This study will examine the emotional and behavioral aspects of long-term survival of HIV/AIDS among adolescents and young adults with HIV infection.
HIV-infected individuals between 13 and 23 years of age may be eligible for this study. They must be aware of their HIV diagnosis, have been infected for at least 13 years and have been on an active NIH protocol during the past 5 years.
In addition to the usual stresses of growing up, children with HIV infection may have spent much of their time in hospitals and may have lost parents, friends and other loved ones. This study will explore psychological aspects of growing up with HIV, including self esteem, possible risk behaviors, how disclosure to others changes over time, the commonness of anxiety and depression, and the impact that losses have had on the adolescents' emotional health. To gather this information, participants will be interviewed and asked to fill out a set of forms. Caregivers will also fill out forms.
Patients who are not currently on an active NIH protocol will have the option of having a physical examination and routine blood work. The results will be sent to their home care provider.
|Detailed Description
|Children and adolescents with HIV/AIDS are living well beyond the life expectancy that was projected for them in the past. As the number of survivors of vertically or transfusion associated pediatric HIV disease increases, attention to the psychosocial adjustment of these adolescents and young adults becomes increasingly important. Studies in the late 1990s described child and adolescent survivors as generally well adjusted, though difficulties become more apparent as the child approached the age of 18. Nothing is known about these HIV positive youngsters as they enter late adolescence and young adulthood. This study will examine psychosocial factors associated with long-term survival of HIV/AIDS, including the prevalence of psychiatric diagnoses, risk behaviors, evaluation of self competence, and the impact that multiple losses has on the adolescents' emotional well-being. In addition, data will be collected from the primary caregivers on the prevalence of parenting stress compared to national norms. Subjects will include children who have been infected (either perinatally or through transfusion) for at least eight years and who are aware of their diagnosis.

First Person
J. Stands UpBy Marie Myung-Ok Lee
My son, J., has many medical issues and severe cognitive disabilities. Yesterday, at one of the endless meetings we have about said disabilities, my husband and I were asked to describe how J. got that scar on his face. We shifted, almost in shame, as if it were someone's fault. It wasn't. So one of us explained how one day, J. was in so much pain from his gastroenteritis when he came home from school—this is our guess; he can't communicate what he's feeling or what motivates him—and we weren't able to get him his medical cannabis in time. He often bangs his head on things when he's hurting. That day, he happened to be standing by a window. He put his head right through it, slashing his face open on a jagged piece of glass.
The developmental psychologist then asked us if J.'s ever tried to hurt us "with malice." My spouse and I considered. We have scars from J.'s bites everywhere—I have one on the web of my hand and another on my left breast, where he bit me in fear after seeing a dog while I was holding him. My spouse has his own scar on his face, for which he, the least vain person I know, is considering plastic surgery to have removed. It looks a bit like a pimple, makes it difficult to shave. And who wants to look at that every day? Read More

The 13 breast cancer survivors gathered last month at a Boston hotel for a calendar photo shoot that will raise money to research the causes of the disease.
They shared stories of recovery. They talked about surgeries and hospital stays and their hopes for the future. In their camaraderie, some may have momentarily forgotten the improbable and puzzling novelty of their gathering.
They are all men. Most served in the Marine Corps. All have ties to Camp Lejeune, a sprawling Marine base on the North Carolina seaboard.
"It's an attention grabber," said Peter Devereaux, 48, of North Andover, Mass., who was diagnosed two years ago with breast cancer.
The men, including three from the Tampa Bay area, are working with the Art beCAUSE Breast Cancer Foundation in Boston, a nonprofit that raises money for breast cancer research, to release a calendar by Oct. 1. They want to increase awareness of what some believe may be the largest male breast cancer cluster ever identified.
At least 64 men diagnosed with breast cancer have ties to Camp Lejeune, according to research by Mike Partain, a Tallahassee insurance investigator who is a member of the group.
Lejeune was the site of one of the worst public drinking water contaminations in the nation's history. Waters there were tainted with dangerous chemicals for 30 years, ending in 1987, say federal scientists.
Up to a million people may have been exposed to the pollution, including nearly 14,000 Floridians who have signed a Marine Corps health registry — the most of any state except North Carolina.
Partain, 42, who was born at Camp Lejeune in 1968 and diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007, said he is convinced Lejeune's polluted water is the source of this cancer cluster.
Partain posed for the calendar shirtless to emphasize the improbable notion that a man can be struck by the disease. As he was photographed, Partain held a chilling photo taken shortly after his birth. It shows his mother holding her baby at a Camp Lejeune hospital — a glass of water on the table beside them.
"I want people to pick up the calendar and wonder why Marines are getting breast cancer," Partain said. " I want them to wonder what in the hell happened at Camp Lejeune."
The Marine Corps maintains that no science has proved a link between polluted water and disease. Federal scientists are studying Lejeune, where everything from fuel to industrial solvents once fouled waters.
The calendar idea came about after Devereaux, the Massachusetts man, posed last year for a 2010 calendar that otherwise featured only female breast cancer survivors. He said he told Art beCAUSE officials that he wouldn't mind doing so again — in an all-male calendar.
"This may help other guys who don't feel comfortable," said Devereaux, who served at Lejeune from 1980 to 1982. "We all have male breast cancer, and it's a female disease. Guys can't get past that."
Male breast cancer is exceedingly rare. From 1975 to 2006, just 1.09 men out of every 100,000 are diagnosed with breast cancer, according to federal statistics.
Photographer David Fox, who shot the calendar and who lost his own wife to breast cancer, said he was startled when he learned about the cancer cluster tied to Camp Lejeune.
"The stories of these men are just incredible," Fox said. "The way we approached this project is that the photos are about the beauty of the person and the ugliness of the disease. Even though the disease has mutilated the body in some way, it hasn't broken the spirit of that person."
Ellie Anbinger, executive director of the foundation, said her nonprofit hopes to raise $50,000 through calendar sales — each will cost $20 and will be sold on the foundation's Web site and individually by the men photographed — to fund research about the Lejeune cancer cluster.
"We want to know what would trigger so many guys to get breast cancer," Anbinger said.
Fourteen men will appear in the calendar — two for the months of November and December 2010, the rest in 2011. Of the 14 men, one is not a breast cancer survivor but had a daughter who died of leukemia after exposure to base water.
The calendar will be titled "Men, Breast Cancer, the Environment: A Photographic Journey."
Joe Moser, 71, of Riverview, who was stationed as a Marine at Camp Lejeune from 1957 to 1960, also posed for the calendar. He said most people he meets can't get over the surprise that so many men from Lejeune are breast cancer survivors.
"I hope it alerts people to what is happening," said Moser, diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008. "Something has to be done about this. We Marines are united forever by this."
Partain, the Florida man who first identified the cancer cluster, said he already has plans for the first calendar he gets his hands on.
"I intend to send the commandant of the Marine Corps his very own copy."

Assault charges laid after fight at Gaza demonstration
CALGARY- Three people have been charged with assault, after tensions rose at a demonstration about the conflict in the Gaza Strip last month.
On July 18, a rally was held in front of City Hall by pro-Palestinians. Some Israeli supporters showed up, and that's when a fight broke out between the two sides.
Aziz Madi, 18, and Arlsan Khan, 27, have since been charged with assault, along with a 16-year-old young man who cannot be named due to his age.
They are all scheduled to appear in court on September 15.
Police also expect to lay charges against a fourth man, and are looking to speak with another man who may have information about the incident.
He's described as having dark hair, a slim build and was wearing jeans and a white T-shirt with a DULUX logo on it. He also had white paint on his hands.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police or Crime Stoppers.

Chirpy little bird, not sure where to start identifying it. Found along Lakes Trail of Coldwater Lake near Mt. St Helens. Flew off immediately after the picture with a bunch of its buds, but the rest didn't seem so ruffled.
Seen abundantly in the forest of the trail leading to the top of the Sediment Dam overlooking the Toutle River. Strange clover looking leaves that in some specimens be outward and others, primarily the less sunned individuals, would be bent at the trifold of the leaves.
Seen around the Hummocks Trial near Coldwater Lake, created by Mt. St. Helen's in 1980. After hearing a loud splash, I turned around to see the beaver in the distance swimming just offshore. It did not get out of the water in a place visible to me, so the only picture is distant and the details of the species are vague, but it was hefty and my guess is American Beaver.
Based off leaf characteristics I believe this is a Herb robert. Seen in a densely forested region along the Spirit Lake highway on the way up to the Toutle River Sediment Retention Dam.
Spotted here along the Silver Lake trail, although seen abundantly anywhere else this time of year in the Puget Sound Area.
Unsure of this plant, looks like a red dull oregon grape, but I am not sure. Found in a dry, dusty environment along the edge of Coldwater Lake.
Palmates coltsfoot according to Dr. Pojar, seen in the densely wooded area approaching the Toutle River Sediment Retention Dam off Spirit Lake Highway.
A good shot of a butterfly seen along the Lakes Trail near Mt. St Helens Washington. The area is very dry, with the ground being a brown sandy dirt color, a seemingly fitting environment for a butterfly of this coloring.
A collection of Filamentous algae in a small pond along the Hummocks Trail near Mt. St Helens.
Spotted swimming in a small pond alongside the Hummocks Trail near Coldwater Lake, off the Spirit Lake Highway. According to information signs from the trail, it is a relatively common species in the area, along with Pacific Tree Frogs.

Thanks! Wish I had the books
Could I have that list of names and dates for the family?
Does it tell who Paton/Payton Wilson's parents are?
I would presume that they came to Iowa in 1837 as Hannah and family
were charter members at Salem MM
I think I need someone to look at Lick Creek meeting on Orange County,
Indiana minutes for me. Can anyone do that?
I am most interested trying to find the names of Paton's parents.
We are gathering all we can find on him as we wish to preserve the
brick house he built in Henry County, Iowa soon after he came.

Monday meal plan: Turkey, baked mushroom chicken, sweet potatoes and more!
Posted December 24, 2012
This week on the meal plan we have turkey breast, creamy mushroom chicken and raspberry cheesecake!
Sweet potato casserole
Pumpkin cookies with cream cheese icing
Tuesday – Merry Christmas!
Eating (too much) with family – I'm bringing Raspberry Cheesecake
We are taking my mother-in-law out for dinner either Wednesday or Thursday
Leftover turkey breast and sweet potato casserole
Creamy baked mushroom chicken served on pasta with a side of steamed broccoli
The basic recipe I use can be found on the Campbell's website and the recipe is called Creamy Chicken Bake. I do make some modifications to this recipe.
Modifications: I usually use a can of non-condensed creamy mushroom soup from Progresso instead of the Campbell's condensed soup. The Progresso Meal Starters Portabella sauce also works well with this. To the soup mixture, I also add about ¼ cup of light sour cream. I also add sautéed onions and 8 oz. fresh mushrooms to the sauce. Finally, I add pepper to spice it up a little.

Should I get my skin treatments before or after my surgery?
I plan to undergo rhinoplasty, Smartlipo (laser lipo to my jowl and chin area), laser skin resurfacing and rosacea IPL laser treatment. I am wondering whether I should do the laser skin treatments before or after the surgery? If i do my skin treatments before the surgery will it have been a waste as I will then be scarred from the surgery... and maybe the surgery will disrupt my skin and rosacea again? But I if I do my skin treatments after surgery will they disrupt the healing process?
You are correct. Sometimes Rosacea can be worsened with the stress of surgery. It might be best to have your laser ablation treatments after your surgical procedures.

Hey guys, as far as I know, Bungie has released nothing about if their will be a Destiny Legendary Edition. I would assume that they are and would hope certain things would be in it. If you listened to the PrimeCast then you would have heard us talk about this. I wanted to get your input on, Price, DLC, and Hard Items. For me I am hoping that the legendary edition will cost $150 (obviously lower if they could XD), but no more then $200. I hope for several cosmetic items that affect my color or look and not my gameplay. Maybe a pet if they have them, specific voice for our ghost that other people can't get, all future updates like maps and stuff, shriekers or something like that XD. One of my main reasons for getting a legendary edition is for the hard items. I am hoping for a sound track filled with awesome, get you pumping songs. Either an art book filled with some serious artwork or a storyline book packed with details that you may not find in the solar system. Hopefully both books if they love me. And lastly a statue to show off and be proud of. My best guess so far, (and don't think that I am right), will be a smaller box sized version of their fallen statue. This makes sense to me that they would do that, but there are so many possibilities on what they could do. Please leave your input, wants, must haves, and what you don't want.

I am thinking to buy a fleshing machine, I can not afford the very big ones so I being thinking to get the Dakoda IV, if you have this machine, please tell me what has being your experience with it? there is any other fleshing machines under 500.00
Thank you
Return to Category Menu
I like mine pretty well. I was the same as you I did not have a fortune to spend.
It is probably not as fast as the larger models but it works fine.
There is also a new flesher called the Quebec Lite. It is a full size
flesher but I think it is slowed down so a beginner will make less mistakes.
I have never used one but it is advertised in the Breakthrough Magazine.
Todd B
i got one last year did 10 then and have done 20 this year more works great blades are not as good grade as the big one or something because on my second blade
I bought one at the New York taxidermy convention last July. NEVER used a fleshing machine before this and i had a cape in the pickle ,so when i got home with it i had to try it out ,WOW I did the face and the rest of the cape in about 45 min.iI only put one small hole in it.
Just got mine set up last week and pulled a cape out of the pickle to try it out. My first time on the round knife and I only cut a couple of holes. It did a real nice job and I finished the cape in less than an hour. I think this is the perfect machine for the taxidermist that only does a few capes a year. If your going to do a lot then get the full size machine. If you only do a few and send most off to the tannery then this is the machine for you.

It's a feeling that never gets old. Be it the first time or last year's fifth championship since 1999, the joy of winning a state football title is sheer euphoria for Andy Lowry. It always bring an infectious smile.
The Columbine head coach has a pretty good handle on what it takes to be successful. He's seen it quite a bit over the years.
KEENESBURG — Rob Molholm was expecting the growing pains. After all, how could there not be with his Evergreen Cougars replacing 19 starters — 21 if you include the place-kicker and punter — from last season's 9-2 3A state playoff team.
And there was plenty for the Evergreen head coach not to like in the season opener Aug. 25 at Weld Central.
Such as the Cougars' four turnovers — two of which came in the game's first 2 minutes, 5 seconds.
By Matt Glass
For the Courier
Dakota Ridge, coming off of a year in which it went 20-3, shared the 5A Jeffco League title, won a regional title, and advanced to the 5A Elite 8, was back at it Aug. 25, beating visiting Evergreen 15-1 at Dave Atencio Field.
The loss dropped Evergreen, coming off a 17-7 season and a spot in the 4A state quarterfinals, to 1-1.
By Matt Glass
For the Courier
DENVER — While his first professional mixed martial arts fight may have only lasted 1 minute, 37 seconds, Matt Davis is in it for the long haul.
Mixed Martial Arts, or MMA, has been a growing sport of over the last couple of years, and Davis, a resident of Evergreen, is a newcomer to the scene. His first fight on Aug. 17 at the Red Lion Hotel was against Jon Vigil, who was also debuting for the Kick Down Mixed Martial Arts Association.
Head coach: Marnie Bello
Classification: 4A Jeffco
2011 recap: It was just about the perfect season for Evergreen, which won the Jeffco League and 4A state championships. "Coming into league we were excited because Elizabeth was going and so were we and we won, which was a huge accomplishment for us and gave us a big boost going into state, which we also won," Bello said. Evergreen had 10 individuals qualify for final events with six of them placing.
Head coach: Katie Ryan
Classification: 4A Jeffco
2011 recap: Evergreen placed third in the 4A Jeffco League, but did not make it through districts after losing to Niwot and Longmont. ... The team was led by Brenna Buckwalter, who is now playing for the University of New Hampshire.
Players to watch: Kira Nielander, Sr., outside hitter; Andrea Eddy, Fr., setter/ right-side hitter; Genevieve DeGrandchamp, Sr., front hitter
Season opener: Aug. 30, vs. Pomona, 6 p.m.
State championship: Nov. 9-10, Denver Coliseum
ARVADA — It was only the first hole, but Sam Theil didn't do himself any favors. The Evergreen senior co-captain, starting on No. 18 at the Jefferson Academy Invitational on Aug. 16, fired a double bogey. It was a tough start for a player who struggles more with golf's mental game than with the physical side.
It's not like Julia Berggren, then 6 years old, didn't like gymnastics. She loved it. So did her brother, Victor. For their parents, Erik and Karin, both avid outdoor athletes in their native Sweden, it wasn't their cup of tea. So they encouraged, or as Erik would say tricked, them into trying other sports for a couple of months just to see if they'd like something else.
Head coach: Brian Doctor
Classification: 4A Jeffco
2011 record: 17-7
2011 recap: Evergreen took third in the Jeffco League last season and won regionals before placing eighth at the 4A state tourney.
Players to watch: Morgan Milstead, Sr., P; Ragan Wickham, Jr., P; Sarah Kay, Soph. C; Natalia Aramovich, Sr., 3B
Season opener: Aug. 21 vs. Thornton, 3 p.m.
State championship: Oct. 19-20, Aurora Sports Park, Aurora
Head coach: Kris Nielsen
Classification: 4A Jeffco, Region 1
2011 dual record: N/A
2011 recap: Last season was close but no cigar for the Cougars. Three times at regionals Evergreen forced a playback match to qualify for the 4A state tournament. And three times it lost. In five of seven draws the Cougars settled for third place. That's where the team finished as well with 29 points, falling behind Colorado Academy and Alexander Dawson.
Players to watch: Matt Goldeb, Sr.; Paul Clancy, Sr.

TO MANY music fans nothing compares to the thrill of performing songs live – and Harmonix is stepping up its offering in Rock Band 3.
For the first time users can wield new tools of rock, including a keyboard controller, real guitar and a revised drum kit.
The Rock Band franchise has sold millions of units worldwide since the first game was released in 2007, with 75m songs downloaded through its online store alone. The total pool of DLC tracks has surpassed 2,000, adding immense replay value to the series.
Rock Band 3 boasts 83 songs out of the box, including tracks from rock acts across the ages such as Jimi Hendrix, Avenged Sevenfold, Paramore, The White Stripes and Ozzy Osbourne. Songs written by artists from other genres such as pop and reggae also make an appearance including Lady Gaga and Bob Marley.
Players can also port songs across from previous games including Rock Band, Green Day: Rock Band, AC/DC Live: Rock Band and LEGO Rock Band.
Once again players are able to play one instrument by themselves or team up with a group of up to six others to play as a band for the full experience.
Users can rock out by playing bass, guitar, drums and keyboard – plus those who fancy themselves as a vocalist can use a microphone accessory to sing along. The game will also feature three-part vocal harmonies that were introduced in The Beatles: Rock Band.
The most unique aspect of Rock Band 3 is that the game encourages players to pick up a real instrument after switching the console off.
The official accessories are compatible with MIDI devices and amps, allowing users to play them as they would a real instrument. This opens up a whole new world of possibilities to fans who may not have previously been interested in making music.
Rock Band 3 doubles up as an edutainment package. It has a 'Rock For Real' mode that allows players to develop their musical skills, providing consumers an alternative to paying for expensive music lessons, books and DVDs.
Fans can start on the 'Easy' difficulty setting and learn basic skills before working their way up to 'Expert' and mastering the instrument of their choice.
For the casual player who isn't interested in playing a real instrument, there are is range of new party modes for instant accessibility.
Party Shuffle is a pick-up-and-play mode that keeps the songs coming, while gamers can delve into the title's thorough Career Mode with over 700 goals to complete and rewards to discover. This takes each band on a journey as they rise in status from performances at their local pubs to sold-out stadium tours.
There is also Twitter and Facebook integration in Rock Band 3, allowing players to set challenges or display achievements to others online. Xbox 360 owners can also access a range of Rock Band 3 avatar clothing,
accessories and instruments for Xbox Live users to buy via the Xbox Live dashboard. These include MTV Moonman statues, outfits and even a classic Fender Stratocaster guitar.
With its pro accessories, massive database of songs and a selection of new modes, MTV and EA will take a larger share of the music games market when Rock Band 3 arrives on October 29th.
Rock Band 3 features a range of new wireless peripherals including a new guitar, eight-piece drum kit and a keyboard accessory.
Fender Mustang Pro Guitar
This accessory features 17 frets, six strings, a touch-sensitive neck with six buttons per fret. It also allows players to connect it to MIDI sequencers and amps in order to play their own tunes.
Pro Keyboard
Music fans can use this to play the guitar, bass or keyboard parts in Rock Band 3. It boasts 25 keys and, like the guitar, can also be used as a proper keyboard. Gamers can use the provided strap, buy a stand or play the keyboard on a table top.
Pro Drums and Cymbal Kit
Boasting four drum pads, three cymbals and a bass pedal, this pro drum set also comes with an easy-to-install clamp. The crash, ride and hi-hat cymbals have ten-degree strike angles for precise drumming.

The touchdown Patrick Myshrall scored for his Worcester, Mass., high school football team put only seven points on the board in a game that wasn't even close.
But it scored well beyond that in other ways, capturing the spirit and hearts of his fellow teammates, students and the entire Worcester community.
Patrick, a 17-year-old junior at St. Peter-Marian High, has Down syndrome. He's just 5-foot-4, weighs just 125 pounds and wears glasses and hearing aids.
Patrick joined the varsity football team this year, unbeknownst to his parents, because he saw the players wearing their uniforms at school and wanted to be part of the team, his mom, Kate Myshrall, told ABC Boston affiliate WCVB.
He attends practice every day, but had never played in a game before last Friday night's game against rival Doherty High School.
In a storyline straight out of a movie, the coach for St. Peter-Marian's team, Tom Henrickson, asked the Doherty coach, Sean Mulcahy, if he would let Patrick join the game and even put some points on the board, providing the game wasn't close.
Mulcahy agreed. St. Peter-Marian took a big lead early on in the game and, with the scoreboard reading 33-6 and the clock winding down in the fourth quarter, Patrick got his shot.
The junior took the handoff from his quarterback and ran the ball 12 yards straight into the end zone.
And, just like in the movies again, the crowd of 1,500 fans on both sides of the field went wild.
Days after his varsity football debut, Patrick continues to get the movie-star treatment with calls from well-wishers pouring in and local media clamoring to interview the high schooler who stole so many hearts.
Patrick's story, however, doesn't end on the football field. He's not just the only member of the school's football team with Down syndrome. He's the only student with the genetic condition, a chromosome deficiency, that causes problems with the way the body and brain develops, to ever attend St. Peter-Marian, a private Catholic high school in this suburb of Boston.
Patrick does not attend special education classes and has the resume of which many a high school student dreams.
He belongs to the National Honor Society, was a member of the Student Council and ran cross-country for two years before he switched his allegiance to the gridiron, WCVB reports.
Even with all the attention on his guts and the glory 12-yard touchdown run, Patrick has kept his eye on the prize and remained a team player.
"It was very exciting," he told WCVB. "My team was pumped up. I really liked it."

Feds waive unemployment tax increase for NC firms
Posted November 12, 2014
Raleigh, N.C. — The U.S. Department of Labor has waived a planned increase to the federal unemployment tax rate paid by North Carolina employers, saving firms about $180 million for the 2014 tax year, Gov. Pat McCrory said Wednesday.
The tax increase was designed to help pay back money the state borrowed from the federal government to pay jobless claims during the recession. North Carolina owed more than $2.5 billion in 2012 but has since changed its unemployment program and has paid back all but $465 million of the debt.
"Restructuring North Carolina's unemployment insurance system and aligning it with those of our neighboring states has set our unemployment program on a path to sustainability," McCrory said in a statement. "By demonstrating to the federal government that we have cut up the federal unemployment insurance credit card, North Carolina employers will avoid paying penalties and be able to invest those funds in job creation."
Dale Folwell, an assistant secretary with the state Department of Commerce who heads the Division of Employment Security, called the waiver "great news for the employers of North Carolina" and said the state hopes to finish paying off the debt next year.
"Once the debt is paid off, employers will begin receiving their full Federal Unemployment Tax Act credit," Folwell said. "This will be a tremendous burden lifted from the employers of this state. It will give them certainty about the cost of doing business in North Carolina. It will also encourage new businesses to come to this state, driving unemployment even lower."
