The popularity of television programs that dramatize emergency situations and celebrate real life heroes is no accident. These programs find a receptive audience in viewers because they portray ordinary people performing acts of courage under extraordinary pressure.
Many of the heroes featured on the programs are children, which raises these 2 questions:
It is true that most school-age children are taught about emergency services. Children who live in areas where the service is available usually learn medical emergency phone numbers before they learn their own. Elementary school classes often visit local fire stations to learn fire prevention and safety tips. Many resources and curriculum guides are available to schools and local agencies.
However, children learn best when their lessons are reinforced at home. There are a number of steps parents can take to teach their children the appropriate actions to take in an emergency situation.
It's usually easy for kids to understand the difference between a real emergency and a perceived emergency, like a lost pair of favored jeans. Accidents can happen at any time though in most cases, an adult is around to help out. When that moment happens and there is no one else around, it is important for them to understand how to call for help.
Help can be in the form of finding the nearest adult, or by using a phone to call for emergency medical help. Let your child know an adult will pick up and walk them through what they need to do. Teach them to keep a clear head and take note of where they are. If someone is seriously injured, this information is invaluable to getting help.
On the flip side, children should know that calling an emergency number is for emergencies only and not for unnecessary calls. If they make those calls, someone else may be delayed in getting help when they really need it. Help them understand they will not get in trouble for calling if they are unsure if they need help. In cases like this, it is better to be safe than sorry. If they call an emergency service by mistake, they should remain on the line to let the dispatcher know that the call was a mistake.
Callers are usually asked to provide their name, address, the name of the nearest cross street, and their telephone number.
Do not rely on the fact that the number called from will automatically show up on the dispatcher's screen. This does not always happen. Emergency calls from cellular phones may not show the location of the caller either. Write your cellular phone number in a notebook and put the notebook in the glove compartment. Instruct your child to provide that number to medical emergency personnel only.
The caller is then asked questions about the condition of the victim. The child should never guess at an answer and should ask the dispatcher to explain any questions that cause confusion. The youngster should follow the emergency operator's instructions, and should never touch, move, or cover a victim, unless it is absolutely necessary to remove the victim from danger.
If someone other than the victim is with the child, the child may be asked to dial for emergency help or go away from the accident site to signal emergency personnel. Children must be taught not to go out into the street where they will be in the path of emergency personnel.
Young callers will be told not to hang up the phone until the emergency operator tells them to. They must remain as calm as possible and should not shout into the phone. Youngsters should know the telephone number for a responsible adult that can be contacted in case of an emergency, and should call that adult after contacting emergency personnel.
Children with medical conditions such as diabetes or severe food allergies should know about their conditions and be able to name any medications they take.
If a child feels to blame for an accident, the natural instinct may be to run away. Running away can make things worse. If the accident was a mistake that may have caused the accident, sticking around to help out will make things better.
Steve works out of a communication center which handles 1,250 calls per day. He says that it is important to teach children that emergency calls cost nothing from public telephones. Children who are lost or are being followed, or who find themselves in a situation that scares them or does not feel right, can call for help, even if they have no money.
"We once had a 5-year-old call in on a car phone," Steve says. "He and his mother had been in a car accident and his mother was in critical condition. He was able to tell us where they were, and his call saved her life".
"Teach your child that help is just a phone call away," he adds, "and that there's a friend at the other end."
Parents must make sure babysitters and day care providers have all the information necessary to successfully handle any emergency. Emergency numbers should be programmed into all programmable phones. The numbers should be posted right by all household telephones in case a power outage deletes the programmed numbers.
Babysitters should know the address of the home at which they are babysitting and be able to identify the nearest intersection. They must be provided with a working landline or cell phone number where parents or an emergency contact can be reached. Babysitters should also know how to reach emergency personnel, and be able to relate the age of the child, the nature of the emergency, the child's condition and location, and what and when the child last ate. They should also be informed about any medical problem your child has.
Day care providers should have a list of your child's allergies, the name of your pediatrician, your home, work, and cell phone numbers. They should also have an additional adult contact number. Day care providers should also be provided with a list (preferably with photographs) of any and all people authorized to pick up or remove your child from the day care premises.
Accidents and medical emergencies happen. Be sure that your child (or your child's caretaker) has the necessary skills to handle emergency situations. Take steps today to avoid tragedy tomorrow.

When things get really stressful, it is time to first look after yourself.
Over the last four weeks I have had some major things to deal with. My god-daughter was born and had to go straight into NICU (neo-natal intensive care unit). Then my sister's baby was born and also had to go straight into NICU. I got a severe allergic reaction – I still don't know the cause. Just after that I discovered that my mom has got skin cancer. And yesterday I had another severe allergic reaction and now I need to have tests done.
I have never coped well with stress, and this is just too much for me. As a result my home looks like a disaster area. My grocery shopping is behind. I have missed days at work, and I really care about my job. I have not exercised in weeks – and I love my exercise. I have started to snap at people for the simplest reasons.
What can I do to reduce my stress, or just to relax?
Don't stress about what has not happened yet because if you do, you create your nightmare.
There is a potential lawsuit against me.
While I am waiting for the decision, I am unable to sleep and eat properly, and I just want to stay in bed most of the time.
What can I do to feel better?
If you care about yourself other people will also care about you.
We cannot change the choices our parents make. We can only love them for what they teach us.
Parents should not make their children feel guilty about growing up. Children don't owe their parents anything for the decisions the parents make.
I have been diagnosed with social phobia and anxiety by a psychologist who was not able to help me overcome these issues. However, I have decided not to let that put me off.
There was an incident at work with a female colleague who had bullied me for quite a while. One day she just went too far and I threatened to beat her up. Of course I will never lift my hand to a woman, and did not mean it. Unfortunately the woman is related to the manager, who took her side and I lost my job.
I have since had chance meetings with some ex-colleagues who looked at me in a funny way, as if they want to laugh at me but not to my face. At first I thought it was my imagination, but then it happened again and again. This made me believe that they are gossiping about me whenever they can.
I am wondering whether it is possible for gossip to destroy a person's life. Do you think I should be concerned about what these people say about me behind my back? I know that I live in a large city and I no longer work for this company, but it still bothers me that these people are talking about me and I don't have an opportunity to defend myself.
I have recently turned 20 and moved out of my parents' home because I could not stand staying there any longer.
My parents are always fighting about money, but I can see how they cause their own money troubles. My dad has been unemployed for a long time and he smokes weed to relieve his stress. He can come up with the craziest things, and then gets frustrated and embarrassed, which makes it very difficult to speak to him.
My mom has a job that she hates, and she drinks two bottles of wine every night to deal with her stress. I work as a waiter and I have seen people sharing a bottle of wine and having a good time. I can see my mother does not have a good time – she drinks because she does not want to face her problems. When I try to talk to her, she says it is her money and she will do as she pleases.
My sisters dose themselves with prescription drugs and drink and smoke weed. I think they have also already tried crystal meth. I have tried to talk to them but they say if our parents can do it, why can't they?
I don't want you to think I am judging them. I have experimented with drugs and weed, but one day I had an experience where I felt God was reaching out to me and I just knew this was not what I wanted in my life. Now I will only take medication if the doctor prescribed it and there is no other way.
Even though I no longer live at home, I am really stressed about my family. Despite everything I love them and I know I can't change them, but I want the best for them.
Can you help me?
Children are entitled to live their own lives. Parents should not deny their children the freedom to become adults

The Bomb Plant: America's Three A.M. Nightmare
The private contractor guard force is owned by a foreign company with a long record of botched security operations from Afghanistan to London to Oak Ridge, Tennessee
The company is now wholly-owned by foreign security firm G4S, the same company that won notoriety on 9/11 when its Argenbright Security division ran passenger checkpoints at Dulles and Newark airports where hijackers boarded planes. Its performance on 9/11 was the major political impetus Congress used to federalize all airline security and create the Transportation Security Administration.
G4S was involved in a major scandal when its employees took part in bizarre hazing rituals when supposedly guarding State Department employees in Afghanistan. More recently, the company so botched security preparations for the London Olympics, the British government was forced to call in the army at the last minute.
by Joseph Trento at The DC Bureau November 14, 2012
Aiken, S.C. – Tons of weapons grade plutonium and other nuclear materials, a target for terrorists, are not being properly protected by the National Nuclear Security Administration at the Department of Energy's sprawling Savannah River Site, according to security consultants and U.S. counterintelligence officials.
A secret security review underway at DOE and other government agencies after an elderly nun last summer breached a NNSA bomb-grade-uranium facility at the Oak Ridge Tennessee Y12 area reveals "harrowing problems in site management and control at other DOE sites," said a Homeland Security official who requested anonymity. The official said that the Savannah River Site was of concern because "SRS does not have the staffing or the facilities to protect the huge amounts of plutonium that have been brought to SRS in recent years."
SRS has one of the greatest concentrations in the world of radioactive material. In one old reactor building – the K Area Material Storage (KAMS) facility – protected by the same contractors that botched security at Oakridge, there is enough weapons grade plutonium to destroy the world multiple times. Here plutonium in its purest form can be found by the ton.

Documentarian Richard Rowley's "Dirty Wars" brings to startling light the investigatory digging of "Nation" journalist Jeremy Scahill, best known for his 2007 bestseller "Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army." (A book version of "Dirty Wars" was published in April.)
Utilizing Scahill as first-person narrator and on-camera presence, the film delves into Washington's sub-radar national security policy and the larger covert war being carried out by the Joint Special Operations Command in countries like Yemen and Somalia, where no official war has been declared. The military strikes, more than 1,700 in number, are unauthorized by Congress. I wish Rowley didn't so often dabble in standard movie-thriller-style stylistics, but his film is an exposé of practices that need – demand – exposing. Grade: A- (Unrated.)

OKC's American Indian Cultural Center remains unfinished dream
Legislature hasn't passed bill for $40 million in matching funds
Two decades after it was proposed and seven years after the start of construction, the $170 million American Indian Cultural Center and Museum is still an unfinished dream.
The sprawling museum in Oklahoma's capital city was proposed to pay homage to the state's 39 federally recognized tribes. But it's only half finished and far short of the money needed for completion.
A total of $40 million in private donations has been raised to complete the project, but the state Legislature has balked at passing a bill to provide $40 million in matching funds.
When finished, the cultural center and museum will feature material from each Oklahoma tribe recognized by the federal government and items from the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington and other tribal museums.

Memories of Winchester
I started work at the Hampshire Chronicle offices in the High Street as a cub reporter in the early 1960's under the benign eye of Monica Woodhouse and news editor 'Jock' Coutts. It was a great place to be - we reported on every court from magistrates to assizes, every council from parish to county, we did (...Read full memory)
May 2008, and the city of Winchester hosted a festival of music and dance, with the streets closed to traffic and thronged with entertainers, market stalls and happy crowds. I was part of the band playing for Whitethorn Morris at this event and enjoyed my visit to Winchester. As I walked (...Read full memory)
Considering I spent 5 years as a day boy at Peter Symonds' my memories are scant to say the least, probably the most significant was the Annual Founders Day service at the Cathedral, the covered passage from the High Street past the school outfitters by the Cross and into the precinct of the Cathedral, the majestic city hall (...Read full memory)

A convicted murderer has escaped from a federal prison in Mission.
Norman Gilbert Riel, 41, was last seen getting into a white Chevrolet Suburban SUV that was waiting for him as he fled Mission Institution on Sunday afternoon, according to Mounties.
Mission RCMP Sgt. Shaun Wright said that it's unclear how Riel escaped, but his absence was noted during a prisoner count.
Riel is currently serving time for the 1994 slaying of Patrick Pugh, a marijuana dealer who was shot dead after four masked men with guns broke into his East Vancouver penthouse. Riel shot Pugh in the back of the head after he refused to hand over any money.
Riel was arrested months after the murder, when he was found living in Las Vegas. He confessed the crime to an undercover police officer posing as a drug dealer.
Riel has a long criminal record that also includes armed robbery, prostitution-related crimes and firearms offences committed in Edmonton and Vancouver. One of the weapons convictions stems from an incident in Edmonton, where Riel leaned out of a car window and fired four shots at a prostitute in a cab.
Police say Riel has been known to travel to the U.S. to avoid arrest.
He is described as Metis, 5'8" tall and 210 lbs., with brown eyes and long brown hair that may be tied in a bun.
Police are advising that anyone who sees Riel should not approach him but instead call 911. Anyone with information about his location should call Mission RCMP at 604-826-7161 or leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
A cash reward of up to $2,000 is being offered for any information that leads to Riel's arrest.

George Anders, author of 'The Rare Find', joins us to give insights into successful recruiting and talent-spotting strategies.
His latest book, The Rare Find, reveals how the U.S. Army finds soldiers with the character to be in Special Forces, without asking them to fire a single bullet. It takes readers to an elite basketball tournament in South Carolina, where the best coaches and scouts watch the game in a radically different way from what the casual fan might see. It introduces a trio of bookish researchers who are applying remarkable new ideas to process of hiring Fortune 500 CEOs.
During this webinar, George Anders will discuss how The Rare Find delivers powerful ideas that you can apply to your own hiring efforts. For instance:
- Don't ignore "the jagged résumé" -- people whose background appears to teeter on the edge between success and failure. Such people can do spectacular work in the right settings, where their strengths are invaluable and their flaws don't matter.
- Look extra hard for "talent that whispers" -- the obscure, out-of-the-way candidates that most scouting systems overlook.
- Be careful with "talent that shouts" -- the spectacular but brash candidates whose positive qualities might not outweigh future problems with loyalty, motivation, and team spirit."

Matins (also spelled Mattins, from the Latin, matutinae, "morning"), also called Orthros (from Greek, meaning "morning", "dawn" or "day break"), is the longest and most complex of the daily cycle services. Matins is celebrated in the morning, unless it is celebrated as part of a vigil in the evening.
General structure of Sunday Matins
While some sections of Matins follow the eight-tone cycle, others follow the eleven-part cycle of the Resurrectional Gospels (the eothina).
- Sunday Matins, when served apart from a vigil opens with the priest's exclamation "Blessed is our God...", "Heavenly King...", and the Trisagion Prayers. (Note: "Heavenly King..." is omitted between Pascha and Pentecost.)
- The chanter or reader reads the Royal Troparia ("Lord, save thy people and bless your inheritance...").
- The priest offers a brief litany while censing around the altar.
- The hexapsalmos (Six Psalms: 3, 37, 62, 87, 102, and 142 - Septuagint numbering) are read.
- The deacon (or in some traditions, priest) intones the Litany of Peace.
- Theos kyrios ("God is the Lord") and the apolytikia are chanted.
- The kathismata are chanted.
- The small litany
- The sessional hymns
- The reader chants the evlogetaria (Blessed are you, O Lord, teach me your statutes).
- The small litany is offered again by the deacon (or in some traditions, priest).
- The hypakoe is read by the chanter to prepare for the message of the Gospel reading.
- The anavathmoi (hymns of ascent) are chanted.
- The prokeimenon is chanted.
- The order of the Gospel is followed: the deacon intones "Let us pray to the Lord...", the priest responds with a prayer, and the chanter sings three times, "Let everything that breathes praise the Lord". One of eleven eothina Gospels is read by the priest; these Gospels each address a different part of the Resurrection narrative, because it is Sunday, the feast of the Resurrection. Having beheld the Resurrection of Christ ... is read by the chanter.
- The 50th Psalm is chanted.
- Then the following hymns are usually sung:
- "Glory..." "Through the prayers of the Apostles..." "Both now.." "Through the prayers of the Theotokos..." "Have mercy on me, O God..." "Jesus having risen..."
- However, on Sundays of the Triodion (excluding Palm Sunday, or a Sunday on which Annunciation might fall), the following hymns are sung:
- "Glory..." "The doors of repentance..." "Both now..." "Guide me in the paths of salvation..." "Have mercy on me, O God..." "When I think of the multitude of evil things I have done..."
- The deacon prays, "O God, save thy people and bless thine inheritance..."
- The canons are chanted: first and third odes (each ode beginning with an irmos and ending with a katavasia; small litany; kontakion of the secondary and/or tertiary commemoration(s) of the day; sessional Hymns; small litany; fourth, fifth and sixth odes; small litany; kontakion, oikos, synaxarion (commemorating the saints of the day); the seventh and eighth odes. (According to the contemporary Greek parish practice, the katavasiae are not sung at the end of each ode, but rather those for odes 1 through 8 are all sung together at the end of the eighth ode, then the Matins Gospel is read (rather than before the canon as above)).
- The chanter sings the Magnificat while the deacon censes the church.
- The ninth ode, ending with its katavasia is chanted.
- The deacon again prays the small litany.
- "Holy is the Lord our God"
- The exaposteilaria (hymns related to the day's Gospel, or the day's feast) are chanted.
- The praises (also called lauds or ainoi) are chanted slowly ("Let everything that breathes praise the Lord"), followed by the appointed stichera.
- The Great Doxology is chanted.
- The litanies "Have mercy on us, O God..." and "Let us complete our morning prayer..." (according to contemporary Greek parish practice, these litanies and all that follows are said quietly by the priest and deacon during the praises if the Divine Liturgy is immediately to follow).
- The Dismissal
Matins services
There are seven types of Matins:
Basic forms
- Sunday Matins: the longest of the regular matins services. If this service is celebrated in its entirety it can last up to three hours. It usually contains a combination of canons taken from the Octoechos, Menaion, Triodion, and/or Pentecostarion. As a result, in parishes, abbreviations are often made. Often, this matins is part of a vigil (particularly in Slavic practice).
- Daily Matins: there is no Gospel.
- Feast-day Matins with Gospel.
Special forms
- Lenten Matins: penitential material added (hymns and prayers).
Matins services related to the Paschal feast:
- Bridegroom Matins: served on Great and Holy Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday).
- Great and Holy Friday Matins: there are twelve Gospel lessons; Antiphons are used (originating in a different office). The troparion sung at the 15th antiphon: Today is hung upon the cross... (Simeron krematai).
- Great and Holy Saturday Matins. This contains some elements of the old cathedral office: procession with epitaphios, reading of three pericopes (OT, epistle, Gospel) at the end.
- Paschal Matins. This is celebrated from Pascha Sunday until Thomas Sunday. The six psalms and the praises are not part of this service.
- A handout given to seminarians participating in the 2004-2005 altar groups at the Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology
- Orthros for Sunday: Resurrectional Hymns in the original Greek, with a new English translation by Spencer T. Kezios, Protopresbyter, published by Narthex Press, 2nd edition, 1998.

The Mapleson Cylinders - Program Notes
|Gounod: ROMÉO ET JULIETTE
|Band 4
Act I: Juliet's Valse excerpts :
(a) "Je veux vivre" ... "avant de l'effeuiller!" and Mapleson announcement
(b) cadenza
Nellie Melba (s), Juliette
Metropolitan Opera Orchestra--Luigi Mancinelli
March 9 (matinee), 1901
[Item (a) dated by announcement and snake; (b) by speed matching and Glackens 108. The container now holding the unplayable cylinder M-10 bears Mapleson's notation: "End of Valse, March 9, 1901." Another of the New York Public Library group of recordings transferred to lacquer discs at the Library of Congress in 1941, the cylinder containing the main part of Juliette's "Valse" did not survive the transfer intact, though its complete contents are preserved on the lacquer, which is the source for this band. In 1981, only some fifty seconds of the original could be salvaged in a new transfer from the original, albeit with many groove skips in addition to the original cutting chatter (probably the result of a loose connection in the recording machine); the 1981 transfer will be found on Side 12/Band 2. In 1982, at the Mapleson Music Library, the missing cylinder described in Glackens 108 ("Juliette's Valse--end") was found, and we have added the aria's final bars here. The remainder of that second cylinder is on Side 12/Band 11, its contents as yet unidentified.]
At the Capulets' ball, Juliette sings of the fleeting happiness of youth.
Ah! Je veux vivre
dans le ręve qui m'envivre
longtemps encor!
Douce flamme,
je te garde dans mon âme
comme un trésor!
[ repeat ]
Cette ivresse
de jeunesse
ne dure, hélas, qu'un jour,
puis vient l'heure
oů l'on pleure,
le coeur cčde ŕ l'amour,
et le bonheur fuit sans retour!
Ah! Je veux vivre, etc.
Loin de l'hiver morose
laisse-moi, laisse-moi sommeiller,
et respirer la rose,
et respirer la rose
avant de l'effeuiller.
[Ah! douce flamme,
reste dans mon âme
comme un doux trésor
longtemps en]cor!
Ah! Comme un trésor
longtemps encor!
I would live
in this dream that intoxicates me
for yet a long time!
Sweet flame,
I hold you in my soul
like a treasure.
[ repeat ]
This bliss
of youth
endures, alas, but a day,
then comes the time
when one weeps,
the heart gives way to love,
and happiness never returns again!
Ah! I would live, etc.
Far from the sullen winter
permit me, permit me to dream,
and to breathe the rose's scent,
to breathe the rose's scent
before picking it.
Ah, sweet flame,
remain in my soul
like a sweet treasure
for a long time still.
Ah! like a treasure
for a long time still.

2 men accused of stripping copper from state police tower
NORTH STONINGTON >> Two Rhode Island men are accused of trying to steal copper off an unlikely target in Connecticut — a state police telecommunications tower.
Twenty-five-year-old John Fahey of Burrillville and 24-year-old Jeffrey Joergensen of Glocester were arraigned Wednesday in New London Superior Court on numerous charges including attempted larceny and trespassing.
State police responded to the tower in North Stonington Monday morning when an alarm went off. Troopers say they encountered Fahey and Joergensen, who claimed to work for a communications company but were actually trying to steal copper.
Authorities say the two men caused up to $10,000 worth of damage to the tower.
It's not clear if the men have lawyers. Fahey posted bail, while Joergensen remains detained on bond. A phone number for Fahey couldn't be found.

When He Comes Again
1. I wonder, when He comes again,
Will herald angels sing?
Will earth be white with drifted snow,
Or will the world know spring?
2. I wonder if one star will shine
Far brighter than the rest
Will daylight stay the whole night through?
Will songbirds leave their nests?
3. I'm sure He'll call His little ones
Together 'round His knee
Because He said in days gone by,
"Suffer them to come to me."
4. I wonder, when He comes again,
Will I be ready there
To look upon His loving face
And join with Him in prayer?
5. Each day I'll try to do His will
And let my light so shine
That others seeing me may seek
For greater light divine.
6. Then, when that blessed day is here,
He'll love me and He'll say,
"You've served me well, my little child,
Come unto my arms to stay."

April 28, 2013
Jim Tucker, the ground breaking journalist who chronicled the activities of the secretive Bilderberg Group beginning in the 1990s, has died from complication after a fall. Tucker was 78.
Tucker departed from a Washington, D.C., newspaper in 1978 and worked with The Spotlight until that newspaper was forced out of business in 2001. He subsequently worked with The American Free Press.
In 2005, The American Free Press published Jim Tucker's Bilderberg Diary, subtitled "One Reporter's 25-Year Battle to Shine the Light on the World Shadow Government." It is described as "a memorable and panoramic journey that will lay bare the realities behind modern-day international power politics."
Jim appeared in Alex Jones's seminal film, Endgame: Blueprint for Global Enslavement, released in 2007. The film partially covers the 2006 Bilderberg conference at the Brookstreet Hotel in Ottawa, Canada.
Jim Tucker is survived by his two sons.

It's a fight that easily could've happened two years ago, had the WEC stuck around.
But it didn't, and through a series of circumstances only now are former WEC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis and former WEC lightweight title challenger Donald Cerrone set to meet.
The two finally square off next week in Chicago at UFC on FOX 6, which takes place Jan. 26 at United Center. Cerrone (19-4 MMA, 6-1 UFC) and Pettis (15-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC) meet on the FOX-televised main card following prelims on FX and Facebook.
"I'm super stoked and excited for the fight," Cerrone on Monday told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). "I cannot wait."
Waiting's what he and plenty of fans have been doing in regard to the matchup, which very well could determine the next in line for the UFC's lightweight title. It's looking more and more like champion Benson Henderson will next defend his belt against former Strikeforce champion Gilbert Melendez this spring. If that's the case, the Cerrone-Pettis winner could be next.
Cerrone believes Pettis, who has been out for nearly a year thanks to surgery and injuries, hasn't done himself any favors by not being more active.
"The dude's been running scared for two years," he said. "He doesn't fight. You can't just not take fights. Three fights in two years."
Cerrone, on the other hand, had five UFC fights in 2011 alone, going 4-1. He slowed the pace in 2012, but after his bout with Pettis he'll be averaging a UFC fight every 13 weeks or so, which is a pretty serious clip.
Against Pettis, who is most famous for his "Showtime Kick" off the cage against Henderson at WEC 53 that helped seal the deal and win him the final lightweight title in the promotion's history, Cerrone believes he'll have to watch out for those types of moves.
"He's really flashy in his strikes and I'm more power – so it's power against flash," he said. "He's going to try to jump off the cage, and hopefully I can grab his little ankle. Have you seen 'The Avengers,' when the Hulk grabs that guy and slams him on the ground? That's what I'm going to try to do."
Comic book movie fantasies aside, though, Cerrone said watching out for Pettis' creativity takes a backseat to what Pettis should be worried about.
"He's got a real creative style, and it's something I've got to be aware of," Cerrone said. "That's all. I've seen a lot, and I don't need to worry about what he's going to do. He's got to worry about what I'm going to do. I'm going to come in there hard to fight my ass off. That's what everyone wants to see – just knuckle down and go. I really plan on fighting. I really want to bring the fight to him."
After all, the Jackson's MMA product with six bonuses in seven UFC fights really doesn't know any other way.
"That's just how I am," he said. "I don't know if you can go out there and try to be exciting. That's just how I fight."

(CBS News) ISLAMABAD - In Pakistan Saturday, chants of "Malala....we are with you," supporting 14-year-old Malala Yousafzai shot in the head on her way home from school. The Taliban claims responsibility for the assassination attempt four days ago. Doctors on Saturday saw signs of hope.
Rarely have Pakistanis come together in such shared outrage. In a country used both to terrorist attacks and violence against women, this shooting marked a new low. It's triggered vigils, prayers and protests.
Malala was transferred into the care of Pakistani military surgeons this week.
Positive signs in Pakistani girl's recovery
Pakistani teen girls' activist Malala Yousufzai shot on school bus by Taliban gunman
Shot Pakistani teen activist faces long recovery ahead
They removed the bullet that had been fired into her head, but which came to rest in her upper chest.
On Saturday, though Malala's on a ventilator, her doctors were trying to gauge the damage, said military spokesman Asim Bajwa.
"They reduced her sedation today," he said. "Malala did respond to that, and she did move her four limbs."
Since 2009, Malala has defied local Taliban edicts, campaigning for girls' right to an education. That put her on the Taliban hit list.
When asked if Malala can be protected if she survives, Bajwa said: "Yeah, surely, you know, the state will do their best to protect her. She's a symbol of hope...she's a beacon of light for all the girls of this country. We would love to protect every Malala of this country."
That's the first tall order for Pakistan's security forces. The second will be arresting Malala's attackers. Police have detained and released several people over the past few days, but so far not the men who pulled the triggers.

"I would be remiss if I didn't write to tell you how delighted I have been with my Footwear etc. shopping experience. I recently purchased a pair of MBT Shoes via your website (at a great price, I might say), and then read a review that suggested buying them a 1/2 size larger than my usual size. I didn't want to wait until I received the shoes to try them on and decide, because the discounted shoes were limited. I went ahead and ordered the larger size too so I could keep the pair that fit the best. Gosh, you made the return process so easy! Even if I were paying the shipping, your rates are so reasonable that I wouldn't complain a bit. You're the kind of company that has made great use of technology. Your site is easy to use, and your approach to customer service makes me think that there's still hope in this world of ever-declining attitudes toward the customer. Keep up the good work. I'll be back. "

VUE cinema in Redditch is inviting Redditch and Bromsgrove youngsters with autism to its autism friendly films.
Autism friendly films are special screenings of children's films, where subtle changes to the traditional cinema environment have been made.

this is a mistake they made in 2009. They played Fleury too many games in the playoff run in 2009. The Pens obviously won but Fleury was getting bombarded mentally and physically against the Capitals in that playoff year.
They brought Vokoun in. A decent goalie who they didn't bring in to watch every game and wait for an injury. Vokoun should have played game 4 not 5.
It should be atleast a 3:1 ratio and possibly a 2:1 ratio with which goalie is going to play. This would keep both goalies fresh. Something Fleury lacks is endurance it appears, both mentally and physically.
On a side note, what would everyone be saying right now if Vokoun went back to play what dump in around the boards...yes the one with the weird bounce off the board. If he goes back to play that we are in a game seven.
