Mark Hayward's City Matters: Anarchy in Ward 5? Well, not exactlyMARK HAYWARD
November 14. 2012 11:20PM
For Republicans in the New Hampshire House, the party is over.
For Democrats, of course, the party is rocking. In fact, the party's party has been going strong for a week now.
But as the haze starts to clear, some unexpected guests are starting to appear in the fog.
Consider Tim O'Flaherty, a Manchester resident of 11 months who was elected a state rep in the inner city Ward 5. O'Flaherty, a Free Stater who describes himself as an anarchist, has raised alarm bells.
"We believe the Free State Project is extreme, and Tim O'Flaherty is one of the most extreme examples of the movement we've seen," said Zandra Rice Hawkins, director of Granite State Progress, an organization backed by labor, voting rights and abortion-rights groups.
She points to blogs where O'Flaherty said he doesn't support Social Security, Medicare, the armed forces or public roads. He has blogged that he's an anarchist, and that there should not even be a state.
But during an interview Wednesday, the harried thoughts of a midnight blogger took a backseat to the practical politics of a man with a title - state representative-elect.
Flaherty said he wouldn't vote to defund public education because there is no vibrant private system to replace it. He realizes a welfare system is in place, so he would help a constituent navigate the system to get food stamps or unemployment benefits. And he would oppose anti-union Right to Work legislation as written.
"I'm an idealist, but I have a practical side," O'Flaherty said over coffee. "Implementing my ideals overnight is not going to happen."
He won't run away from the anarchist label, which he described as self-governance.
"Anarchy means no rulers; it doesn't mean no law," he said.
O'Flaherty stands 6 feet 3 inches tall, and although he says he is 33, he has the body of a teenage boy who knows no fat. He speaks softly and deliberately, a contrast to a photo on his campaign literature, which features a smirk. That smirk turns out to be a pretty good symbol of his campaign.
O'Flaherty said he was surprised to win the Democratic primary over Richard Komi, a former state rep who was voted out of office in 2010. O'Flaherty won the contest by one vote. He said Komi may have suffered from name problems; his name is similar to Joseph Kony, the Ugandan guerilla leader whose capture was encouraged by the Kony 2012 effort, a viral Internet video.
In the general election, O'Flaherty ran against a fellow Free Stater, housemate Dan Garthwaite, whom O'Flaherty called a statist who favors more government than O'Flaherty.
O'Flaherty's campaign literature calls for reduced spending, individual responsibility and protection of constitutional liberties. The backside encourages people to donate to Shire Sharing, an effort to raise money for the needy. Nowhere is Free State or anarchy mentioned; O'Flaherty said one doesn't get elected campaigning as an anarchist.
In one of the more bizarre moments in the campaign, O'Flaherty wrote to Comedy Central's election Internet site to say he and Garthwaite are lovers, and the election would decide certain role-playing aspects of their relationship. (We're talking dominance and jackboots here.)
But O'Flaherty, who is gay, said he doesn't know Garthwaite well, and he made the comments to undermine his opponent with his Republican base.
Granite State Progress dropped fliers in Ward 5 on election day to alert voters to O'Flaherty's beliefs, but he easily won, coming in second in the race for two seats.
"I feel it strange they should want to demonize Free Staters so much," he said about Granite State Progress. "We have a lot of common ground with the political left."
He said he had to choose a major political party in order to get elected, and he agreed with the Democrats' principles of tolerance and inclusion.
Ed Osborne, the longtime alderman in Ward 5, said a Free Stater ran against him last year. Like O'Flaherty, Mike Segal didn't mention his Free State allegiance, Osborne said. He said many people in his ward, especially Democrats, vote party line.
"I don't think 75 percent (of voters) know what the Free State Project is. Free Stater, free skater - I don't pay much attention to it either," Osborne said.
O'Flaherty said he grew up poor, the only child of a single mom who works in a florist shop in Reading, Pa. He worked in the hotel industry before moving to New Hampshire in 2009 as part of the Free State movement. He said his anti-war leanings drew him to the Free State movement.
Since moving to Manchester, he's been mugged, but he did not report the crime to police. ("What's the best outcome? A prison cell? It's torture; it would not restore justice at all.")
He also spent a weekend in jail; he said he did not realize his driver's license expired. ("It's pretty ridiculous to be arrested for not having your paperwork in order.")
Friends helped him out, and he's now settled at Porc Central, a Central Street rooming house with six Free State residents. (Porc refers to porcupine, the symbol of Free Staters.) He now works as a carpenter for Joel Winters, another Free State Democrat, who was a state rep for two terms and was elected last week. On his way to work, he had a copy of "The Righteous Mind," a book by social psychologist Jonathan Haidt that diagnoses the divisions of the American political system and gives recommendations for mutual understanding.
So what will happen to O'Flaherty over these next two years?
Kathy Sullivan, a New Hampshire Democratic leader and Democratic National Committee member, has criticized Republicans in the past for their embrace of Free Staters. But Donald Manning, chairman of Manchester City Democrats, said he's met O'Flaherty and that his critics should sit down and talk to him.
Although O'Flaherty has a libertarian streak, Manning said he does not think he wants to tear down state government.
"I think he's right in step with the people of Ward 5," Manning said. "I have no reason to suspect otherwise."

Criteria set for how to give money raised in 2 months
Nearly $61 million raised by The One Fund Boston will be distributed to 232 individuals and families starting Sunday, marking the end of a crash campaign to raise money quickly to help victims of the Marathon bombings.
The total — which far exceeded the expectations of the fund's administrators — will allow them to write larger checks on average than the aid provided to relatives of those killed in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, they said. Those whose relatives died and those who suffered the most grievous injuries as a result of the terror in Boston will each receive nearly $2.2 million.
The administrators of the fund, which was established shortly after the bombings by Mayor Thomas M. Menino and Governor Deval Patrick, vetted all 259 claims and rejected 26 submitted earlier this month because the victims had not sustained physical injuries that were treated at a local hospital. The administrators are still seeking documents from one woman who has sought compensation, and any for her would come from money raised over the coming months.
"No amount of money can replace what has been lost," said Kenneth Feinberg, administrator for the fund, in a statement. "It was a solemn responsibility to allocate these finite contributions across tremendous pain and suffering, but it was made lighter by the unprecedented generosity of Bostonians, of Americans, and of people around the world."
For those who suffered the worst, the money will bring little consolation.
When the father of 29-year-old Krystle Campbell, who died in the bombing, learned Friday that his family would receive nearly $2.2 million from the fund, he began to cry.
"Wow. That's really shocking to hear," said William Campbell Jr. "It's really overwhelming."
The retired plumber, who had expected less than half that amount, said the money will help his family, but it will never salve the family's pain.
"I'd rather have my daughter back than get a dollar," he said. "She was everything in the world to me."
Campbell said he and his wife will use the money to help other victims and to remodel their home in Medford so their son and grandson can move in. "We want to keep them nice and close," he said.
Larry Marchese, a spokesman for the Richard family, whose 8-year-old son Martin died and whose 7-year-old daughter, Jane, lost a leg when the second bomb went off, said the family is deeply grateful for the outpouring of aid and empathy. The children's mother, Denise, lost vision in an eye and suffered a head injury. Their father, Bill, sustained shrapnel wounds, burns to his legs, and suffered hearing loss. The oldest child, Henry, was unharmed.
Their family will receive aid based on five claims, one for each family member, according to Camille Biros, deputy administrator of One Fund.
In a statement, the Richard family said the financial compensation serves as "another powerful reminder of just how much love and support our family has received from the people of Boston, across the country, and around the world."
The Richards added: "We would like to thank every person who gave support, financial or otherwise, to our family, as well as all the other individuals and families victimized on Marathon Monday."
Officials with the Boston Athletic Association, which organizes the Boston Marathon, thanked Feinberg and his staff for distributing the money so quickly.
"The funds are being distributed without bureaucracy or delay in order to meet current needs," said Tom Grilk, executive director of the association. "Mr. Feinberg and his team are acting precisely as so many others have in the wake of the April 15 bombings. They are wasting no time in moving forward."
The $61 million the fund drew in accounts for all the money raised through June 26. Those whose relatives died and those who had two limbs amputated or suffered permanent brain damage will each receive nearly $2.2 million.
The 14 victims who had one limb amputated will each receive about $1.2 million. Another 69 people injured in the attacks will receive between $125,000 and $948,300, depending on how much time they spent at a hospital. Ten who spent 32 or more nights in a hospital will receive the maximum and 18 who spent two nights or less in a hospital will receive the minimum.
The rest, 143 people who were treated on an emergency outpatient basis at local hospitals and released without an overnight stay, will each receive $8,000.
Officials said the One Fund will continue to collect donations and use the additional money to support those most affected by the attacks. No deadline has been set for contributions. It is yet to be determined how additional donations will be distributed.
Biros said her staff was amazed by how much money people donated. Checks have come from every state in the country, in amounts as small as $1 and as large as $1 million and more.
"This totally exceeded our expectations," she said. "I don't think anyone understood we could have a fund to distribute of this magnitude."
She said the average amount given to the families of those killed will exceed the same category of victims in the 9/11 attacks by more than $100,000 each. The federal government distributed $7 billion in taxpayer dollars to about 5,500 people and families after the 2001 attacks.
Biros said the One Fund used length of hospital stays and other criteria to avoid making judgments about needs or circumstances of individual victims. Compensation to victims is not based on financial need.
"When we volunteered to do this, we wanted to do this as efficiently and in a timely manner as possible," she said.
Feinberg, the fund's administrator, conducted two public meetings in May to explain the application process for aid. The deadline for claims was June 15.
Several millions in additional dollars have been raised by separate fund-raising efforts.
In a statement, Menino said he hopes the aid from the One Fund will help as much as it can to alleviate the pain of the victims.
"No amount of money can ever replace what these individuals and families have lost, but I hope the generosity of the world helps them heal a little more comfortably as they move forward in their lives," he said.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Peyton Manning's stunning return from four neck surgeries has netted him The Associated Press 2012 NFL Comeback Player of the Year award.
The four-time league MVP guided the Broncos to the AFC's best record, 13-3, in his first season in Denver. Before sitting out 2011, Manning had never missed a start in his first 13 seasons with Indianapolis.
Manning received 31 1-2 votes Saturday from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league. He easily beat Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, who got 17 1-2 votes after his comeback from major knee surgery. Peterson came within 9 yards of the NFL rushing record and helped Minnesota go from 3-13 to 10-6 and a wild-card berth.
Kansas City RB Jamaal Charles got one vote.
Manning accepted his award Saturday night at the "2nd Annual NFL Honors" show on CBS saluting the NFL's best players, performances and plays from the 2012 season.

PEORIA — Peoria School District 150 board members will vote on a resolution to expand Peoria High School's athletic fields at a special meeting noon Wednesday.
The meeting is bookended by votes by the Peoria City Council on Tuesday to approve variance and zoning changes and the Public Building Commission to begin the construction process for the estimated $3 million project.
"It's just a one-theme special meeting to get this done," Dave Kinney, District 150's interim comptroller and treasurer, said of the School Board meeting.
The school district has spent $935,000 to purchase about 30 properties over 12 acres for the athletic field expansion. The area, just north of the school at 1615 N. North St., is bounded by Richmond Avenue, Sheridan Road, Nebraska Avenue and North Street.
Building new baseball, softball, track and soccer fields at Peoria High will use up the approximately $3,5 million in PBC funding left over from earlier renovations at Peoria High, Kinney said.
If City Council members give their blessings to zoning changes, as expected, School Board members will amend the original lease agreement with the building commission for renovations at Peoria High to convey the properties to the commission, which issued the bonds and will oversee the construction project.
School Board members are also scheduled to vote on a recommendation to approve an easement agreement giving Illinois American Water Co. access to the new baseball and softball fields if a water main access in the outfield areas should break.
The water main runs under Woodruff Boulevard, which the City Council is scheduled to turn over to school district Tuesday.
Kinney said he would like to see construction begin in June and the boys' soccer fields ready for the fall season of 2015.
"We can't afford turf, we can't even afford sod, so we're doing seed," Kinney said of the fields. It's important to get the seed planted by the fall, he added, so it will have a healthy growing period before the 2015 season.

all about cookiesTuesday, February 26, 2008
Last weeks cookie: Slice and Bake Chocolate Chip
They were a big hit. (I added 1 tsp of vanilla)
And proved to be a great dunker. Important around here.
I am so bummed I forgot to order some samoas. Maybe next week I will try the homemade version here. And then perhaps the homemade do-si-dos, homemade tagalongs and homemade thin mints. Yes, definitely the thin mints, because it is another slice and bake. I seem to be all about the slice and bake.
37 comments
wow! cookies run amok in your household!!ReplyDelete
speaking of slice and bake, i tried the dunkin platters. they were extremely hard to slice. should have i crushed the corn flakes a bit? or used my mixer?? i mixed that batter by hand (don't ask me why).
and we've got a selection of girl scout cookies coming home with the husband from work. good thing i ordered the kinds i won't eat!
I made the samoas the other day and found them really time consuming. They were delicious though.ReplyDelete
Your cookies look delicious!
Your cookies are making my mouth water. I think I want to go bake - LOL.ReplyDelete
I spent the first 20 years of my life refusing to eat Girl Scout cookies, because I was a Camp Fire Girl. We sold CANDY, not cookies. If I had a dollar for every time I heard "No, we already bought girl scout cookies"... well, I'd have several dollars. But then someone convinced me to try a samoa. Oh dear. So, so, so good.
we just got our girl scout cookies this weekend! dangerous things!ReplyDelete
I used to be the 'cookie mom' and am loving being a mere consumer of GS cookies right now rather than having them stacked everywhere in my living room!ReplyDelete
samoas are my favorite! thanks for the recipe!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous2/26/2008
I can't wait for GS cookies.ReplyDelete
My mom works in a pretty industrial part of town. Next door is the local Girl Scout council and down the street is this HUGE warehouse. Every year the GS go and do their ordering and packaging there. I've always wondered home much time I'd have to do if I hijacked a truck full of Tagalogs! YUMMY!
those are totally different names than when I sold them!! The only one that's the same is thin mints!ReplyDelete
Gosh, it's been a while since I've thought about girl scout cookies...I could really go for some!
Funny, I started knitting to get AWAY from cookies...ReplyDelete
Girl Scout cookie season is such a bane on my waistline.
I stumbled on your site and love the Ruby sweater. The color is perfect. I am a novice knitter and just don't think I can tackle that one yet! I will keep checking in to see your progress.ReplyDelete
Cookies are a big hit in this house too with Samoas being a favorite. We only bought one box. I will keep it in mind to try to make some from scratch!
Mmm..your cookies looks delicious ;o) you have a really nice blog!!ReplyDelete
Oh Yum! I love slice and bakes too! I was bummed there were no samoas in your photo too, I think those are my favorite. They make a great photo all lined up like that!ReplyDelete

"Building an Ethos of Resilience: A New Manifesto for Business" – Conference
Date(s) - 13/11/2012
1:00 pm - 8:00 pm
University College London
"Building an Ethos of Resilience: A New Manifesto for Business" – Conference
Central London: Tuesday 13th November 2012 1pm – 8pm
ISRS is due to hold its inaugural conference on 13 November 2012, entitled "Building an Ethos of Resilience: A new Manifesto for Business."
The purpose of the conference is to assess how individuals, organisations and societies can build resilience to crises. In the modern interdependent, networked world, crises are now the norm not the exception. Without understanding the true nature and reasons for these events, the risk of continued vulnerability remains. This conference will unpick the complexities that give rise to crises and offer practical and deliverable solutions to those seeking to tackle the crucial task of building resilience.
Resilience to crises is the key to the fitness of organisations in our uncertain times. This is a working event for business leaders, civil servants and academics to help guests develop practical ideas to take back into their own environment so that they can build greater personal and organisational resilience.
The symposium of world-class speakers to lead the discussions includes:
- Tony Blair – the importance of resilience in leaders
- Michael Gove – education is the foundation
- John Reid – placing resilience at the heart of your strategy
- John Browne – constant innovation
- Michael Smyth – embracing the regulatory environment
- Andy Haldane – financial resilience
- Prof Paul Ormerod – most things will fail
- Sue Campbell – nurturing talent what we can learn from the Olympics
- Prof David Price – from silos to 'Grand Challenges'
- Ross Kemp – human resilience

Red Sox edge Blue Jays in 11 inningsBy SportsDirect Inc.
August 13. 2013 11:47PM
Shane Victorino's two-out, two-run single in the 11th inning lifted the Boston Red Sox past the host Toronto Blue Jays, 4-2, on Tuesday night.
After Toronto tied the game in the eighth inning on a J.P. Arencibia solo home run, Victorino emerged as the hero with a sharp single up the middle off Aaron Loup (4-5). Koji Uehara (3-0) recorded the final four outs to secure the win as Boston extended its lead atop the American League East to four games over the Tampa Bay Rays.
Arencibia drove in both Toronto runs while Brett Lawrie had a pair of hits for the Blue Jays, who have dropped three straight and five of six.
After Lawrie hit a double in the fifth inning — the second hit off Dempster to that point — Arencibia opened the scoring by lining a single to left-center, ending an 0-for-23 slump. Toronto nearly doubled the lead the following inning, but Jose Reyes was thrown out at the plate trying to score from second base on a Jose Bautista single to right.
Boston finally hit the scoresheet in the seventh, as Will Middlebrooks stroked a one-out double off the right-field wall and scored on Jacoby Ellsbury's single up the middle. Ellsbury promptly stole second — his league-best 43rd steal of the season — and Dustin Pedroia drove him home with a single to right.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Dempster threw seven strong innings, limiting Toronto to a run on four hits. Blue Jays counterpart Todd Redmond was even stingier, allowing just three hits over 5 1/3 shutout innings. ... Dempster hasn't lost in 10 career starts in his native Canada, going 1-0 in two games at the Rogers Centre and going 5-0 in eight appearances at Montreal's Olympic Stadium. ... Toronto has hit five of the eight home runs Red Sox RHP Junichi Tazawa has surrendered in 2013.
Marrero goes to Portland
Xander Bogaerts isn't the only shortstop of the future making waves this season. Former No. 1 pick Deven Marrero was promoted to Double-A Portland Monday. The No. 24 pick in the 2012 draft out of Arizona State has drawn rave reviews for his defense, and he had 21 steals in 23 attempts at High-A Salem this year before getting the call.
Marrero was hitting .256 with a .341 on-base percentage and .334 slugging percentage at Salem, having skipped Low A altogether.
Marrero may not have the range of former Sox farmhand Jose Iglesias, but he has drawn comparisons to the defensive wizard because of quick hands, above-average instincts and an accurate arm.
Like Iglesias, Marrero needs to develop more consistency as a hitter before he's ready to take the next step, but his glove is already considered big league caliber.
News of his promotion was first reported by SoxProspects.com.

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. --- The Colorado Rapids scored three goals in the first 30 minutes of their opening game as defending MLS Cup champions on Saturday night, and spoiled the MLS debut of the expansion Portland Timbers with a 3-1 win at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
Jeff Larentowicz, Omar Cummings and Jamie Smith each scored for the Rapids, who controlled much of the tempo of the match before Kenny Cooper scored the Timbers' first-ever MLS goal on a skipping free kick in the 80th minute.
But Cooper's historic goal certainly wasn't enough to seriously threaten the Rapids, who got on the board with a scrappy goal from Larentowicz in the 8th minute.
Cummings set up the goal when he refused to give up on a ball close to the corner flag, brought it in dangerously and crossed the ball hard into the penalty area. The ball landed perfectly for Larentowicz, who capped a difficult week with a sweet close-range strike into an almost open goal.
The midfielder was involved in a midweek car accident that saw him in a neck brace, and was also wearing a cast to protect a fractured thumb sustained in a recent preseason win over Vancouver.
Cummings made the most of another Rapids scoring chance in the 29th minute after forward Conor Caseysent him through with a perfect header. Portland goalkeeper Adin Brown denied Cummings's first breakaway chance, but the rebound skipped back to the Jamaican international, who neatly finished it into an open net for a 2-0 Colorado lead.
Smith punctuated the surge just one minute later on a gorgeous right-footed rip from 25 yards out.
Cooper and the Timbers rebounded well in the second half, highlighted by a sequence of spectacular saves from Brown and the monumental goal from Cooper, the Timbers' prized signing of a busy offseason.
Cooper smoked a low shot on a free kick from roughly 35 yards that skipped past the Colorado wall, through the box and to the far post past goalkeeper Matt Pickens.
The goal was the first in MLS for Cooper since June 20, 2009 with FC Dallas.

West Africa, Marine
Off the coast
The beaches of Cape Verde, Gambia, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mauritania and Senegal are important nesting sites for 5 marine turtle species. And millions of migrating birds from Europe feed along the coast before beginning their homeward trek in the northern spring.
Offshore in the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean, over 1,000 species of fish are found as well as dolphins, whales and seals. Extensive cold-water coral reefs encompass the archipelago of Cape Verde.
Troubled watersWest Africa is one of the most diverse, and economically important, fishing zones in the world.
But these waters have suffered from years of overfishing by large, foreign commercial fishing boats and unsustainable fishing practices.
With more and more boats searching for fewer and fewer fish, fish stocks are on the decline and conflicts between local and foreign fleets are on the rise,
WWF is working with West African governments and local communities to improve fisheries management, conserve coastal habitats and species, and support the establishment of marine protected areas.
Coastal protection
The protected areas are crucial for safeguarding fish spawning grounds and stock recovery as well as marine biodiversity conservation, including marine turtles and manatees.
Other important protected sites along the West African coast include Mauritania's Banc D'Arguin National Park, Gambia's Tanji Nature Park and Guinea-Bissau's Joao Vieira e Poilao Marine National Park.

Londonderry police seek help in solving Comcast payment center heistBy APRIL GUILMET
Union Leader Correspondent
January 28. 2014 8:02PM
LONDONDERRY — Police are looking for a man who robbed the local Comcast payment center in late 2013.
Londonderry Police Detective Chris Olson issued a statement on Tuesday asking for the public's help in solving the Nov. 14 burglary that happened in the early morning hours inside the Route 102 Comcast office.
Shortly before 12:30 a.m. that morning, security cameras captured the masked man breaking into the building and cutting into the center's safe.
"He made off with a substantial quantity of cash," Olson said.
Olson added that the November burglary remains under investigation.
Police described the burglar as "fairly short with a stocky build."
He wore his hair either shaved or extremely short, with his head partially covered by a Boston Red Sox baseball hat.
The suspect also wore a pair of CAT brand yellow and black gloves, a leather zip-up jacket and black Nike Shocks-style sneakers.
Anyone with information regarding this commercial burglary is encouraged to contact the Londonderry Police Department at 432-1118.

Being Multis
Game number(s):
Game 12000661
Comments: These two guys are both from Columbia, both only play 3 player games where they are two of the three players, they miss turns at the same time and always play within about 30 minutes of each other. They gang up on the 3rd player. There's no way to have any strategy and the game is a pointless waste of time. I've added them both to Foes but they need to be investigated. Thanks.


text: I take care of this machine and have for seven years since start up. It is a low pressure machine using r-123. The first five years of running 3 shaft seals were replaced , the first one was the regular type seal , 2nd and 3rd were bellows type. When each of the previous seals went bad there was no guess work : when it was leak checked the leak detectors would scream on the large setting and the halide torch would be purple. Now when the machine runs I get less than 10 purges per month but when it is shut down for 10 days or more it will fill up with air to the point where it will not run = 25 degree difference in leaving water temp vs. saturated evap temp with machine off and with chilled water flow. I have spent probably 40 hrs over the past 2 years leak checking (paying special attention to the seal) and I come up with nothing each time. I have had other mechanics perform leak checks on it just to have another set of eyes on it and they come up with the same thing ....nothing. It has got to the point now if it gets air in it I dont even leak check it , I pull the air off of the top of the evaporator and condenser , start the machine , put the liquid back in , let it purge for a couple of days and it will be back to running like a million dollars , and all I can do is hope that it is not shut down for any extended periods of time. One would think that it would be a high side leak with only 10 purges per month while running and it fills up when it is off but I cant find a leak. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Man charged after trike crash injures self and Manchester woman
MANCHESTER – A man is charged with a felony DWI after he lost control of a three-wheel motorcycle and hit a woman, sending the trike crashing into a house and pinning him up against it.
Police said the crash happened at 5:40 p.m. Tuesday at Walnut and Salmon streets. Martin Dowd, 50, of 317 Walnut St., tried to move a three-wheeled Triumph motorcycle owned by Donna Dunn, 45, of 51 Liberty St.
Police said he lost control of it, accelerated rapidly and hit Dunn, who was standing next to him. The Triumph then crashed into a house at 316 Walnut St., pinning Dowd.
When police arrived, Dunn was on the ground complaining of a leg injury and Dowd was suffering from a serious head injury.
Both were taken to a local hospital for medical treatment.

Building great online and mobile products is hard enough with a small team and limited resources, so why add to the difficulty by embracing "privacy by design" principles? With so many free, easy web tools available and an "everyone else is doing it" mentality, why take time to create extra user controls and transparency? The reality is your users are starting to understand the issues and will soon demand it. You should demand it too. But most online tools compromise user privacy at some level, and almost none provide the new benefits that result when privacy is baked in from the start. So, what to do? You can build your own tools, requiring time, skill, patience, and functionality trade-offs; pay a third party for their tools; or adapt open source solutions. Or you can shrug your shoulders and roll the dice... In this session, learn how the CTO of Personal, a private personal network and data vault service, has built privacy into the company's DNA and how you can too.

One good thing about Jay Cutler's near-Super-Bowl-dream-ending injury: The Super Bowl dream remains alive, even if it now might be wrapped in Kevlar and popping Vicodin.
Just because Jason Campbell is not Caleb Hanie -- I believe he's legally changing his name to Not Caleb Hanie -- doesn't mean anyone thinks he's a championship quarterback. He's an insurance policy, not a lottery ticket.
Another good thing about Cutler's near-Super-Bowl-dream-ending injury: It should clear the room of idiots who still want to question the guy's toughness.
As if 94 sacks in his last 31 games, which is less than two full seasons, isn't explanation enough.
Another good thing about Cutler's near-Super-Bowl-dream-ending injury: It might finally force the Bears to get off the bus running.
Look, the Bears are not the explosive offense we expected. It might grow up to become that offense some day, but not today. And now the offense certainly is limited by Cutler's injury.
So, milk the patient game plan. That means running the ball against the dogbreath Panthers.
The way the Bears' defense is playing, the offense can only help itself by eating clock and yards on the ground. Get an aggressive defense more rest, get the ball back more.
Or congratulate the defense after it reaches the end zone.
This strategy is not just the answer for minimizing danger to Cutler's ribs. It's also necessary to avoid having the defense fade later in the season.
In the win over the Lions, Matt Forte gained 96 yards on 22 carries, an average of 4.4 a carry. Michael Bush picked up 36 yards on six carries for a nice, even average of six. Combined, that's an average of 4.7 yards per rush. Hel-lo.
Nobody has said anything official, but Forte left Monday night's game with an injury to either his right elbow or upper arm. Bears coach Lovie Smith called such things bumps and bruises. He would've called Cutler's near-Super-Bowl-dream-ending injury a bump or a bruise if it wasn't so public. Smith offers injury details only at gunpoint. Your wallet or your running back's health.
But let's presume Forte is healthy, and even if the Bears have to start Bush, when you look at their production, you wonder why you'd expose Cutler to more risk than necessary.
When you look at the Panthers defense, you conclude that someone should be fired if the Bears do it any other way.
Ron Rivera's bunch allows an average of 24 points a game, about the middle of the NFL rankings. Good victim there. Carolina has allowed 366.2 yards per game, ranking among the bottom half of the league. Better victim there.
But most inviting is a defense that surrenders an average of 120.3 rushing yards a game and 4.1 per carry, along with allowing a pathetic 45-percent conversion rate on third down, ranking among the bottom five.
The Panthers can't get off the field. The Bears offense needs to stay on the field. The Bears offense needs to get better at running the ball, and the way to do that is to commit to it. For all kinds of reasons, this seems to be the perfect week to do it.

Leon Panetta To Open Combat Roles For Women in the Armed Forces
In a historic policy shift, women in the U.S. Armed Forces will be allowed for the first time to be dispatched directly into active combat zones, the Defense Department said on Wednesday.
"This policy change will initiate a process whereby the services will develop plans to implement this decision, which was made by the Secretary of Defense upon the recommendation of the Joint Chiefs of Staff," a senior Defense official told Fox News Latino, adding that no further information would be released until Thursday.
The groundbreaking move recommended by the Joint Chiefs of Staff overturns a 1994 rule prohibiting women from being assigned to smaller ground combat units. Panetta's decision gives the military services until January 2016 to seek special exceptions if they believe any positions must remain closed to women.
Some jobs may open as soon as this year. Assessments for others, such as special operations forces, including Navy SEALS and the Army's Delta Force, may take longer.
The official said the military chiefs must report back to Panetta with their initial implementation plans by May 15.
Panetta's move expands the Pentagon's action nearly a year ago to open about 14,500 combat positions to women, nearly all of them in the Army. This decision could open more than 230,000 jobs, many in Army and Marine infantry units, to women.
Women comprise 14 percent of the 1.4 million active military personnel.
Albert Gonzalez, leader of the leading veterans group, the GI Forum in Washington, D.C., said the move by Panetta was not unexpected.
"It's something we shouldn't be too surprised by because this has been taking place all along by having women soldiers getting closer to the front lines," Gonzalez said in an interview.
He added the move is a good one and one the Armed Services is ready to implement.
"All families of a soldier, whether they're female or male, if a soldier gets moved to the front lines, the families will still be concerned," said Gonzalez. "I don't think it's been done in a callous manner, it's well thought out."
Other leading voices also quickly came out in support of the Pentagon's policy change.
"I have been a firm believer in removing the archaic combat exclusion policy for many years," Democratic Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez, a member of the House of Representatives Armed Services Committee, said in a statement. "I look forward to working to implement any changes that will completely integrate women into the military."
A leading national civil rights organization said the move is actually overdue and remained somewhat skeptical of how quickly and how fully it will be put in place.
"We welcome [the announcement] with cautious optimism, as we hope that it will be implemented fairly and quickly so that service women can receive the same recognition for their service as their male counterparts," said Ariela Migdal with the American Civil Liberties Union.

So the BBC is finally pulling the plug on showing kids programmes on mainstream channels like BBC 1 and if you want to entertain your youngsters you'll now have to plonk them in front of CBBC or any one of about a hundred US channels.
In the general scheme of things this matters very little. It does however give me a cheesy hook to highlight five great kids programmes that quite frankly are wasted on the little blighters.
These five are all solid gold viewing for adults – some intentionally so, others just because they offer a snapshot of a fascinating period of time.
The number one is a current programme and if you don't have kids you quite probably know nothing about it.
What would you add to the list?
5 The Tomorrow People
Thames TV's flagship kids sci-fi show from the 70s was brilliant first time round and is just as much fun now. If Dr Who relfected the BBC in the 70s, inspired but a little earnest, Tomorrow People personified ITV, much more groovy and packed with cool pop culture references. The crew, named Homo Superior as they have reached the next stage of human evolution, are blessed with special powers which enables them to among other things, read each other's minds and teleport themselves using a special belt. The team got involved in some wonderful, if at times, controversial capers. The most notorious of which, Hitler's Last Secret, had half of London's kids decked out in Nazi regalia and the German dictator returning in the guise of an alien, ready to establish the fouth reich. The plots are ingenious, the charactars lovable (especially the chirpy Mike Bell who joined the cast in series four) and there's a visionary view of tech too. I wonder if Steve Jobs was a fan, because take a look at what's on the table? It doesn't half look like an iPad. It is available on DVD if you want a closer look.

DENVER (AP) — Federal housing officials are condemning a decision by the Denver Housing Authority to evict the relatives of a mother killed by a rampaging gunman three days after her slaying, saying there is room for compassion in federal law.
Housing and Urban Development spokesman Jerry Brown said Tuesday that his agency and the Denver Housing Authority are working to try to provide housing assistance to the mother and autistic son of 47-year-old Sandra Roskilly after they were locked out of their subsidized housing.
Brown said federal lease agreements for subsidized housing with communities limit the ability of residents to turn over property to other people, but the rules aren't carved in stone.
"Our rules and guidelines are just that, and we would hope people would use compassion. They have discretion, which is why the city has a board to administer it. There was no notification on our end of an eviction, and we didn't have a say in it," he said.
Police said 31-year-old Daniel Abeyta, a neighbor, killed Roskilly and shot a second woman in her leg on Friday. Abeyta is hospitalized and could be charged with first-degree murder.
The housing authority said it was forced to lock out 70-year-old Doris Kessler under federal law because Roskilly was the head of the household and Kessler wasn't allowed to be on the lease because she lived there as a live-in aide. It also said Roskilly died without a will, requiring the unit to be locked until a public administrator could determine who should inherit Roskilly's belongings.
In a statement, the authority said staffers have "made themselves readily available to Ms. Kessler and other family members to enter the home to retrieve" medications and personal items.
"We appreciated that Sandra Roskilly's death has been traumatic for the family. We will continue to work with them, the Denver Police Department, and the Public Administrator as the family navigates through these very difficult times," the statement said.
The Denver Housing Authority owns and manages subsidized public housing under an agreement with the federal government. Denver agency spokeswoman Stella Madrid said the property was turned over to the public administrator on Monday.
"We secured all property in the unit yesterday and we secured the unit," Madrid said Tuesday. She refused further comment.
Kessler is now sleeping on a couch at the home of one of her children. Roskilly's autistic 18-year-old son is under state care at a facility in Pueblo, but friends say he often visited his mother. The housing authority said he hasn't lived in the home for a year.
Roskilly's brother, Dennis Campbell, says his mother and nephew were given the boot by the city after 20 years. Kessler had moved in a decade ago.
"She's been living here 10 years and now they're telling her she's just a visitor and she has no rights whatsoever," Campbell said.
Daniel Markin has been friends with Roskilly for 30 years. He said he still has a lot of questions, including how his friend wound up in a gunman's sights.
Markin said Abeyta was upset that his neighbor's rose bushes were growing onto his property.

Floating Shoulder
(Ipsilateral Fractures of the Clavicle and Scapular Neck)
A floating shoulder injury is when two of the shoulder bones are broken. The clavicle bone]]> (collarbone) and the upper part of the scapula bone (shoulder blade) break. These breaks cause the shoulder to pull out of place and look like it is floating.
Bones of Shoulder
Floating shoulder injuries are typically caused by a trauma like a car accident. You will likely be taken to an emergency room. You will be evaluated from head to toe. If you are experiencing shoulder pain or your shoulder looks out of place, your doctor will look for a floating shoulder injury.
Floating shoulder injuries are rare. They are caused by a high-impact trauma. Specific causes include:
- Motor vehicle accident
- Fall from a height
- Gunshot wound
- Crush injury
Shoulder Injury During Car Crash
Risk Factors
A floating shoulder injury is a result of an accident or trauma. There are no known risk factors.
If you have any of these symptoms do not assume it is due to a floating shoulder. These may be caused by other conditions. Tell your doctor if you have any of these:
- Severe shoulder pain
- Muscle spasm
- Injured arm hangs lower than unaffected arm
- Bruising
- Swelling
- Numbness or weakness
A doctor will ask how you were injured. A full physical exam will be done. Your shoulder will be examined more closely. The doctor may ask for a specialist to evaluate your shoulder. For example, an orthopedic surgeon specializes in bones.
Tests may include the following:
The location and size of the broken bones will determine the options. A floating shoulder may be treated medically or surgically. Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you. Treatment options include the following:
A doctor may choose to use a sling or shoulder immobilizer. If this is the case you can expect to be in a sling or immobilizer for one to two months. Your doctor may suggest physical therapy to maintain shoulder range of motion.
Surgical repair will mean inserting a plate and screws into the broken clavicle. Your scapular bone may also be fixed surgically. The surgeon will manually reposition your bones into their normal location during surgery. After surgery, your shoulder will be placed in a sling or shoulder immobilizer. Your doctor will give you instructions as to how long you need to wear it.
After surgery, your doctor will have you work with a therapist. The therapy will focus on regaining strength and range of motion to your shoulder.

Judith Regensteiner, Ph.D. led the presentation of the Metabolic
Health Subcommittee report. Dr. Regensteiner outlined the presentation with the
five questions the subcommittee developed:
Can physical activity prevent diabetes?
What is the relationship between physical activity and
prevention of Type 2 Diabetes?
Is there a relationship between physical activity and Type 2
If there is a relationship between physical activity and Type
2 Diabetes what is the dose-response relationship?
What is the relationship between physical activity and Type 2
Diabetes in adults, youth, men, women and ethnic groups and are the
relationships different among these groups?
It is known that physical activity and exercise has metabolic
and cardiovascular benefits for diabetes. While there are studies that indicate
physical activity can prevent Type 2 Diabetes it is important to note that
there are not a lot of studies. Due to this fact it will also be important for
this committee to highlight what is not know and what needs further work.
Both observational and randomized control studies have addressed
the interaction between diabetes, physical activity and exercise. Most
randomized controlled trials have used a combination of life-style treatments
including diet and exercise which makes it harder to ascertain the benefits of
exercise alone. Observational epidemiological studies using self-report
mechanisms such as questionnaires have consistently shown the benefit of higher
levels of physical activity towards the prevention of diabetes.
Three major randomized controlled trials have addressed the
independent effect of effect of physical activity in as much as they were able.
Two studies, the Finnish Diabetes Prevention study and the American Diabetes
Prevention Program (DPP) both had a lifestyle arm including both exercise and
diet. The Ching study in China included an exercise alone arm. Due to the
extreme complexity of such trials and the cost associated it has been generally
deemed not as effective to conduct studies using exercise only arms.
The DPP study found weight loss as the dominant predictor of
reduced incidence of diabetes; however, physical activity and diet did predict
weight loss. In many such studies when comparing individuals who did not lose
weight compared to individuals that achieved their physical activity goal there
was a 44% lower incidence of diabetes even though they did not lose weight. This
would seem to conclude that physical activity itself does have a protective role
against diabetes.
When trying to determine the appropriate dose of exercise one
can conclude a specific amount of activity will have benefit in preventing
diabetes; however, it is difficult to determine whether a lower or higher dose
would have better results. While determining the appropriate dose is problematic
one can conclude that there is strong evidence that physical activity has a
major role in preventing Type 2 Diabetes as well as cardiovascular events and
mortality. It seems consistent in men and women as well as along ethnic groups
from the existing studies available but more data could lead to more powerful
conclusions. The results in youth are now pending from the Today Study.
The second question addressed by the subcommittee, "what is the
relationship between physical activity and gestational diabetes (GDM)," is a
very important area due to the rising levels of obesity in the population. No
randomized controlled trials have prospectively assessed whether physical
activity can prevent GDM. Observational studies do seem to support the benefits
of physical activity in reducing GDM. One such study conducted by Jennifer
Dempsey, an obstetrician, seemed to conclude that 30 minutes of exercise five
times a week yields benefits. Overall, more studies and data is needed in this
area in order to produce a strong evidence based conclusion.
Dr. Regensteiner then introduced Dr. Timothy Church to address
the metabolic syndrome and whether physical activity can prevent the metabolic
syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is important to address because it can put
individuals at high risk for diabetes, cardiovascular disease and premature
all-cause mortality.
Dr. Church referenced several studies in which the majority of
which supported the fact that physical activity prevents metabolic syndrome. One
study, the Kuopio Study focusing on eschemic heart disease looked at both
physical activity and fitness is important to note because it shows a true
dose-response relationship. A weakness of the study is the fact that it only
looked at men. Also, there are no exercise studies that focused exclusively on
the treatment of metabolic syndrome. The Heritage Study, which was an
uncontrolled study, analyzed fitness and genes in association with a host of
risk factors. Most of the outcomes in this study showed the improved benefits of
20 weeks of aerobic exercise. In summary, there is an inverse association
between physical activity level and the development of the metabolic syndrome.
The association appears to be dose-response and not threshold in nature.
Dr. Regensteiner next introduced Dr. Amy Huebschmann to address
the prevention of complications of diabetes and Type 1 Diabetes. Outlining her
remarks, Dr. Huebschmann noted she will be specifically discussing the role of
physical activity in the prevention of microvascular complications and when
possible note a dose-response relationship and any differences between genders.
The following specific complications were reviewed: nphropathy,
neuropathy and the attendant problems associated with neuropathy progression
including ulcers, fall risk and retinopathy. There are very few randomized
studies that have looked at the complications in relation to physical activity.
With regards to neuropathy, one randomized trial in both Type 1 and Type 2
Diabetes was positive. Additionally, in Kriska's work (males only), there was a
reduction in the instance of neuropathy and a case control study was negative.
With regards to nephropathy, one out of the four observational studies was
positive in both men and women. An additional study at Kriska was positive for
reduction of nephropathy in men only. Two cross-sectional studies were negative.
For retinopathy, only one of the seven studies showed benefit, which may
indicate a lower benefit in this condition. In conclusion the evidence for
primary prevention is poor to fair; however, it does suggest a possible
relationship between the primary prevention of neuropathy and nephropathy and
certainly no increased risk of retinopathy. In the area of secondary prevention
we are also limited by the amount of data available to study but similarly to
primary prevention there seems to be a possible beneficial relationship.
Dr. Huebschman next reviewed the sub-committees review of the
relationship between physical activity and prevention of cardiovascular
complications. One meta-analysis summarizing over 1,000 subjects with Type 2
Diabetes compared the effects of three different types of training regimen,
either an aerobic training regimen, a resistance strength training regimen or
combined aerobic and strength training. The results indicate that all three
methods of training improved insulin sensitivity with greater effects from
combined training, followed by aerobic and then resistance training. Additional
cardiovascular risk factors were improved in both the combined training regimen
and aerobic training regimen but not the resistance training regimen. Also, a
study linking the NHANES database physical activity data to the National Death
Index showed that more than two hour per week of walking was associated with a
41% reduction in cardiovascular mortality. More than two hours per week was
associated with a 30% reduction. Studies such as the Nurses Health Study shows a
significant dose-response, although it is undetermined whether the dose-response
flattens out at greater levels of exercise.
In conclusion, the role of exercise in reducing cardiovascular
risk seems particularly beneficial in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes and
impaired glucose tolerance as compared with individuals who are normal glycemic.
Dose-response would suggest that greater than 120 minutes per week of exercise
is optimal and that aerobic or combined aerobic and resistance exercise would be
best. Further data would be beneficial to determine if there are differences
between genders.
Finally, Dr. Huebschman discussed the relationship between
physical activity and the prevention of Type 1 Diabetes. As there is no known
relationship with regards to primary prevention the sub-committee focused on the
benefits to secondary prevention. In terms of glycemic control there are many
small interventional studies which are roughly split 50/50 as to whether
physical activity has a benefit. A few larger cross-sectional studies show
similar modest reductions. Safety and exercise should also be discussed along
with Type 1 Diabetes. The benefits of physical activity in this area come at the
expense of increased risk of hypoglycemia. Normal protection from hypoglycemia
in normal subjects comes from counter-regulatory hormones. Individuals with Type
1 Diabetes adjust less so there is risk of bottoming out on sugars.

Kaitlin Erin Mara: Fighting for Cheaper HIV Meds (Video)
August 30, 2013
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that out of the 34 million people living with HIV, about 26 million of them should be on HIV treatment, according to the WHO's latest guidelines. However, only around 8 million people actually are getting treatment, says Kaitlin Erin Mara of the Medicines Patent Pool.
"There's many reasons why people don't have access to treatment, but one of the reasons is that medicines can be very expensive. One of the reasons why medicines can be very expensive is that they are often patented," Mara says in this interview with Fred Schaich of the International Foundation for Alternative Research in AIDS (IFARA).
In this video, Mara explains how patents on drugs work and why generic drugs are needed for people who otherwise can't access treatment. She discusses how her organization helps negotiate licenses for low-cost companies to produce affordable generic HIV drugs.
"Just to give you an example of the dramatic price drop that generic competition can have -- in the late '90s you saw the average cost of an HIV medicine for one person for one year costing about $10,000. That's a lot of money anywhere, but it's especially a lot of money in developing countries. Generic medicine producers started coming on the market and now those same treatment regimens go for as little as $100 per person per year in some countries," Mara says.

State Rep. Regina Barrow recently hiked a mile and a half on the shoulder of a busy Airline Highway to call attention to the trek some poor and uninsured must make to get health care now that LSU is privatizing its clinics and hospitals.
While Barrow says the quality of medical service is excellent at the private south Baton Rouge facilities, the Jindal administration forgot that the patients using the soon-to-close LSU Earl K. Long Medical Center lived near the north Baton Rouge hospital.
Now, instead of walking or taking the bus to doctors or labs, some patients — not all — can make an appointment for a free van ride. Thousands of other patients, family members and the uninsured must hoof across town, with many having to use uncertain public transportation.
State Sen. Richard Gallot, D-Ruston, says the many critics of Barrow's demonstration raised valid issues about costs and responsibilities, but they missed the real point: However well-intentioned, the policymakers simply overlooked a key element — accessibility — because nobody was at the table who could tell them how the poor and uninsured live.
"As leaders you owe it to the people to think through this stuff before you go out and do it," said Gallot, who has long criticized Gov. Bobby Jindal for delegating to people who do not reflect the state's diverse culture and population.
"If they would take time to be more inclusive, they would get some of the practical challenges to implementing some of these grand ideas," Gallot said.
As president of the LSU Faculty Senate, Kevin Cope says he watches higher education. Except for the historically black Southern University system, the boards that run the state's four-year colleges and universities are populated mostly by white businessmen who have shifted the academic focus from the forward-thinking research that has kept America ahead of the rest of the world to vocational training, he said.
Cope argues that the addition of board members from the middle-class, faculty, public service and religious communities would broaden the ideas for how to improve higher education.
"Great universities routinely have persons who provide different vocational interests and perspectives," Cope said.
Only 6 percent of the members of the LSU Board of Supervisors, the University of Louisiana System board and the Board of Regents are black, one per board. Thirty-two percent of the state's 4.5 million people are black. Four women, or about 9 percent, are scattered across the three top boards, though women make up 51 percent of the state's population.
The LSU Board of Supervisors oversees the 10 charity hospitals and many clinics around the state, as well as about 44,000 students at four universities, two medical schools, and a law school. The 15-member governor-appointed board (the 16th member is a student) has voted in lockstep with Jindal's efforts to consolidate the universities, purge malcontents and privatize the hospitals.
The LSU board has one black member, former state Sen. Ann Duplessis, who also is the only woman. The only members approaching "middle class" status are the two former aides to GOP governors, Stephen Perry and Scott Angelle.
The rest are white businessmen: owners and executives of energy producing and servicing concerns, processed meats and publishing companies, fast food franchisers, hotel developers and corporate lawyers. Together, these "non-political" supervisors, their immediate families and their companies donated nearly $300,000 to Jindal's campaigns, according to disclosures filed with the Louisiana Board of Ethics.
Jindal, who seems irony impaired, on Thursday addressed a Republican National Committee meeting that was, at least partially, trying to figure out why the GOP message fails to resonate with minority voters.
Jindal then was scheduled to appear before The Alfalfa Club, which was founded in 1913 to celebrate the birthday of Confederate Civil War General Robert E. Lee.
Jindal did not respond to a request for an interview about his board appointment strategy.
He did, however, speak about it when auditioning for Republican kingmakers.
"We must reject the notion that demography is destiny, the pathetic and simplistic notion that skin pigmentation dictates voter behavior," Jindal said, according to a copy of his speech. "The first step in getting the voters to like you, is to demonstrate that you like them."

Staten Island, NY – A Mother's Day fundraising appeal by abortion provider Planned Parenthood was decried today by leaders of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign, the world's largest network of women and men harmed by abortion.
"For Planned Parenthood to ask for 'Mother's Day Gifts' is beyond appalling," said Janet Morana, Co-Founder of SNMAC. "This is an organization that has turned Mother's Day into a painful reminder of terminated children for millions and millions of women. To ask for money on this day so that it can traumatize even more women is the ultimate in insensitivity."
"The irony of Planned Parenthood asking for Mother's Day donations in honor of mothers and daughters hardly needs pointing out," added Georgette Forney, another SNMAC Co-Founder. "Planned Parenthood already took our money when they aborted our children; I guess now they want money for the ones they missed."
"Cecile Richards, Planned Parenthood's president, writes with pride that one of her daughters is carrying on her family's legacy of fighting for abortion," added Ms. Forney. "Ms. Richards has admitted, but refused to discuss, that she aborted one of her other children. I wonder what legacy she thinks she left that baby?"
Since the launching of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign in 2003, 2,326 women and men have shared their testimonies publicly at over 200 gatherings in 44 states and six countries where more than 15,000 spectators have heard the truth about abortion's negative aftereffects. More than 4,100 people are registered to be Silent No More. Raising awareness about the hurtful aftermath of abortion and the help that is available to cope with the pain are two of the Campaign's goals.
The Silent No More Awareness Campaign is a joint project of Anglicans for Life and Priests for Life. For more information, please visit www.SilentNoMoreAwareness.org

Here's a look at Netflix since its stock peaked about 16 months ago at nearly $305. Netflix had just announced an unpopular price increase in the U.S., and investors got worried by the intensity of the customer backlash. Even after subscriber complaints subsided, investors have remain concerned about intensifying competition at the same time the company is spending more to acquire Internet content and expand abroad.
July 12, 2011: Netflix Inc. says it will raise prices by as much as 60 percent for millions of subscribers who want to rent DVDs by mail and watch video on the Internet. The company decided to separate the two options so that subscribers who want both must buy separate plans totaling at least $16 per month. Netflix Inc. had been bundling both options in a single package starting at $10 per month.
Sept. 1: The price hike begins to take effect for existing customers. New customers had the new prices immediately.
Sept. 5: Netflix begins to offer its service in Latin America. Like its counterpart in Canada, the Latin American service is streaming-only, with no options for getting DVDs by mail.
Sept. 18: Netflix CEO Reed Hastings apologizes but keeps price hike in effect. Company creates more anger when it announces plans to split into two services — Netflix for the streaming, and Qwikster for the familiar discs in red envelopes. That means subscribers have to visit two websites to make movie requests and update billing information. Hastings says the two businesses have different cost structures and benefits, and splitting would let each grow independently.
Oct. 10: Netflix backs away from its plan to split its two services.
Oct. 24: The company discloses that it lost 800,000 U.S. subscribers in the July-September quarter, ending with 23.8 million. That loss is more than the 600,000 that Netflix had predicted.
Nov. 21: Netflix announces plans to raise $400 million by issuing debt and selling its stock. The move raises new fears about Netflix's financial strength as it girds for losses next year. It would be Netflix's first annual loss in a decade.
Dec. 6: Hastings appears before an investors' conference in New York, where he laments the company's recent mistakes but predicts they will be forgotten as Netflix's Internet video service continues to reshape the entertainment industry.
Dec. 22: Netflix says Hastings's stock option awards will be cut by 50 percent to $1.5 million in 2012. His base salary remains unchanged at $500.000.
Jan. 4, 2012: Netflix delivers its first good news in months, sending its stock up 11 percent. The company, which delivers movies and TV shows online and by mail, says customers had streamed more than 2 billion hours of video in the fourth quarter.
Jan. 25: Netflix releases figures showing it regained almost as many U.S. customers as it lost following the price hike. It ended December with 24.4 million subscribers in the U.S., a gain of 600,000 from the end of September. It had lost 800,000 last summer.
Feb. 6: Verizon Communications Inc. and Coinstar Inc. unveil plans to challenge Netflix with its own streaming service to bundle with DVD rental kiosks operated by Coinstar's Redbox division. Getting an extensive library of streaming content to rival Netflix's will be expensive, though. Netflix, meanwhile, debuts its first original TV series, an eight-episode drama called "Lilyhammer," as it hopes to differentiate itself from rivals.
Feb. 21: As part of an effort to offer more exclusive material, Netflix locks up the right to show "The Artist" and other movies from The Weinstein Co. before the films are released to leading pay-TV channels such as Showtime and HBO. On the same day the multiyear deal is announced, Comcast Corp. announces plans to undercut Netflix with a less expensive version of a service that will stream old TV series and movies to devices with high-speed Internet connections.
April 23: Netflix says it suffered its first quarterly loss in seven years as it dealt with rising licensing fees and the bill for an international expansion. The first-quarter setback, however, was far smaller than analysts expected. In another encouraging sign, the company's subscriber growth accelerated during the first three months of the year, further evidence that the company is recovering from the price-hike backlash.
July 3: Netflix announces that subscribers watched more than 1 billion hours of online video in June, an indication that streaming video is getting more popular.
July 12: One-year anniversary of price-hike announcement. Subscriber growth has returned, but even after a recent rally, Netflix stock remains more than 70 percent below its peak price of nearly $305 about a year ago.
July 24: Netflix reports a 91 percent reduction in second-quarter earnings. It added 1.1 million subscribers worldwide to its streaming service — in line with management predictions, but below what analysts had hoped for. Netflix also cautions that it may be tougher to get more people to sign up during the current quarter as the Summer Olympics fills the entertainment needs of many households for two weeks of the 12-week period.
Aug. 15: Netflix announces that its international expansion will continue with a rollout in four Nordic countries — Norway, Denmark, Sweden and Finland. Service became available in mid-October.
Oct. 23: Netflix slashes its prediction for how many U.S. video streaming subscribers it would add this year after subpar third-quarter results. The company says it added 1.2 million net streaming subscribers in the U.S. in the three months through September, which was on the low end of its forecast.
Oct. 31: Activist investor Carl Icahn discloses he has used some of his $14 billion fortune to accumulate a 10 percent stake in Netflix.
Monday: Netflix moves to protect itself against hostile takeovers by adopting a shareholder rights plan, also known as a poison pill. Such a plan is designed to make it difficult or even impossible for someone to take over the company without an agreement from the board. Netflix says the provision is triggered if a person or group acquires 10 percent of Netflix, or 20 percent in the case of institutional investors, in a deal not approved by the board.
