Doesn't Mean 'Giving'"
It is now time to act; we now have a "filthy rich" person in the midst of an obvious hotbed of liberal thought. You must work hard to keep Bob Twigg as your designated "rich" assistant national editor so he can provide a unique perspective to USA TODAY ("'I won the lottery,'" Cover Story, News, Friday).
Ask him how easy it feels to pay his "fair share" of taxes now. Welcome him to the ranks of the top 5% of U.S. wage earners, that "greedy" group that pays 46% of the entire federal income tax bill. With any luck, Twigg will have good counsel that will help him pay all he owes beyond the 32% the IRS already has taken. Warn him that he must pay early or he will be penalized for the evil person he must be!
By the way, tell him to look out for President Clinton. The last time Clinton got elected, the only people he figured he could safely soak were the top 5 percent of wage earners who don't tend to vote for him anyway. If he and his Rolodex of cronies win again, tell Twigg to be ready for the next wave of retroactive tax increases.
Don't get me wrong. I loved reading the joy of victory that Twigg experienced, just as I enjoy achieving success and the income it provides. But it will be fun watching and reading about how and if it changes Twigg's perspective. Journalists and liberal politicians love to talk about Republican plans benefiting the wealthy. They never seem to complain or comment about singling them out for tax increases.
OK. all taxes aside, I wish I had Twigg's tax problems. Add my congratulations to the others, but just don't forget to ask him how he feels about his "fair share" after a couple of years of paying it.

Oxytocin is my favorite word. And its meaning gives us more to celebrate.
So, what is oxytocin? Oxytocin, otherwise known as the "love hormone" is typically associated with these two motherly functions; childbirth and breastfeeding. It is a hormone released by the pituitary gland that causes increased contraction of the uterus during labor and stimulates the ejection of milk into the ducts of the breast. This is one of the many reasons why breastfeeding is so highly recommended. It creates a bonding between you and your child that unfortunately triumphs the bottle. Not everyone has the ability to breastfeed and/or loses their milk early. In cases like so, there are other share bonding techniques that can be used to increase the bond between one and their child. One can practice attachment parenting in which they often carry the child in a sling. This consistent contact between one and their baby can surely create a bonding energy between the two. Oftentimes, I say to my crying toddlers, "come get some oxytocin" to let my loving energy resonate with theirs in hopes of bringing balance. I appreciate the opportunity to offer the people in my life the gift of oxytocin and love it as a gift to myself from a significant other.
There is a bond created during other physical interaction between one individual and the person they love rather it be child, lover, kin or friend. Oxytocin is located at the base of the brain and therefore also acts as a brain neurotransmitter. This means that this gift is also released in areas of the brain that affects our emotional, cognitive and social behaviors. It is an important component to loving behaviors.
I grew up in a family that did not display much tangible love through hugs and kisses. Love was distributed in other ways that we're equally important. However, all loving relationships need balance.
Star signs that seem more detached such as Capricorn or Aquarius can benefit from a dose of oxytocin and may need a little more if they let you.
Oxytocin, in my opinion, is an excellent tool for all substantial relationships or relationships worth the chance of rejuvenation. It's up to you be the author of such faith.
However, this one thing is important:
When releasing oxytocin come from a pure place.
Use your oxytocin accordingly. Oxytocin has a great impact on relationships…even if you are dealing with someone who isn't good for you. If you are bonding with oxytocin, it can take up to 2 years to diminish the impact levels of oxytocin has on individuals.
Oxytocin has an impact on emotional behavior. This may explain some of the many reasons people have a hard time with relationships that come to an end or needs to come to an end. Even if the relationship was detrimental to their life or lacks substance, there was sure to be a level of oxytocin which existed.
According to studies, oxytocin has the ability to facilitate a bonding between people for it provides a calming effect. This calming effect in return allowed most people in the study to share emotions with whom they were sharing their tangible energy.
For water signs such as Scorpio, Pisces and Cancer share bonding through emotions may be generally easy since these signs are the most emotional out of the 12. Signs that are water signs may endure a heightened level of emotional sharing when oxytocin is involved.
Fire signs (Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius) are very similar to water signs but they are more expressive outwardly than water signs' inwardly expression. For instance, it may take a water sign much longer to bounce back from a heartbreak than the fire sign. The fire sign may have deep intense emotions one day and then the next day the sign can turn away from such intense emotions that they once felt. During a heartbreak, fire signs can be more resilient. If the fire sign has a moon sign, they are able to analyze all the reasons why they need to get out of a relationship.
Then there are the logical thinkers; when they express emotions, the experience is definitely more controlled than water signs. These are the of earth and air signs.
Earth signs (Capricorn, Virgo, and Taurus) and air signs (Gemini, Aquarius, and Libra) are similar in which they are emotionally censored. Yet, when earth signs express emotions they do understand the depth of the emotion and hence access logical reasoning towards their emotions. Air signs understand the big picture when dealing with emotions. They understand that they are occurring but somehow find a tunnel to detach themselves from their emotions.
Although our sun signs have a great contribution to our being, learning your moon sign may be more appropriate when dealing with emotions and the release of oxytocin with others. Our moon sign is affiliated with our emotions and vulnerabilities. It is the insight into how we are feeling and thinking. And just like the moon, our emotions go through different phases. The full moon being the most intense point of the phases. More interestingly, when a woman is on her menstrual cycle she is more in tune with her feelings or at least she should be. Could it be that those who seem cranky on their cycle have hidden emotions that are often suppressed? Maybe..It's just a thought. (Maybe I will BlogIt later)
—moving on—
So if you often have a conflicting battle between the heart and the mind it may actually be the battle between star signs that do not serve as a catalyst to one another. For instance, you have an earth-sun sign and a water moon sign. This makes you think logically about your deep emotions while at the same time your emotions are heightened and can seem uncontrollable.
If someone is dealing with an air and earth combination of sun and moon signs, it may be easier to deal with the battle between the heart and the mind. The person may in return be very expressive with their air component, however. So if an air and earth combination was willing to express any feelings or thoughts…they are most likely very honest and sincere. An Aquarius for an example are very social beings but only consider a few to none as their person of choice for significant share bonding experience (discussing emotions or events.) The person the Aquarius shares with is indeed special because few understand this most individualistic sign of the zodiac.
Ultimately, the goal is to learn yourself. You have the ability to be your own oxytocin; provide the touch needed to bring life and to nurture thus life along the way.
Astrology is a great tool and any person is able to learn from all aspects of the zodiac family. The key is to use it as a guide and not as doctrine for all life endeavors. Each sign has unique qualities that can help the others in one way or the other. Becoming confident in your passions and your desires will more so help align you with all the other things you want in your life. Everything is about balance.
Every moment, even in silence is an opportunity to manifest what you want. Try to take advantage of as many moments as you can. With a clear definition of what makes you happy, you have the ability to combine the heart and the mind so there isn't a battle between the two, but instead harmony.
Harmonize the mind and heart,
Danie J

Few life moments show us the transience of life as beautifully as the first meeting between grandparents and their grandchildren.
As the classical Greek tragedian Euripides once said: "Our lives… are but a little while, so let them run as sweetly as you can, and give no thought to grief from day to day. For time is not concerned to keep our hopes, but hurries on its business, and is gone."
This great quote reminds us in a poetical way about the transience of life. In the modern tempo of life, we often don't have much time to ponder this important subject.
Witnessing a meeting between grandparents and their grandchildren take place is not only sweet, but also thought provoking. At that moment, one can understand that we are just visitors who come and go. So, here we have 12 endearing photos of grandparents seeing their grandchildren for the first time.

Before we begin, practice healthy creative habits: Clear your space of clutter, set aside some time to focus and spend 2-3 minutes doing your Daily Free Writing before you begin. See Lesson 2 for more about DFW.
I really push the research aspect although I know the bulk of that work will come during the writing process. Research is so critical but it's one of the most common mistakes I see when I read people's first draft of their manuscript. They might write about their year of travel but it's completely limited by just what they personally saw, what they knew in that moment and their perceptions. It's almost impossible to pull off unless your writing is so fantastic, it blows everyone away. The research piece adds those beats of, "Oh wow, cool, I didn't know that…" as a sort of breadcrumb trail through your narrative.
Every, single time you make a claim with authority, you should research that point. Make sure you're right and you know why you're right or conversely, know why other people are wrong.
This is the last we'll talk about research, but…
You will only use about 10-30% of your research in the final book. If you decide to use famous quotes in your chapter headings–aim to get 2-3 times more lined up then you'll actually need. If you're researching historical facts to support your story telling, you might learn a lot about a place but only a few details will make it into the final book. Just to give some perspective, my book had tons of research, with hundreds of clipped articles and studies in Evernote. But in my final endnotes (not all books will have this, but mine did), I only cited about 80 sources. I had entire interviews that got cut from the manuscript. So whatever amount of research you think you need to do, go ahead and double or triple that because you will need that flexibility as you start writing this book.
Saving research in Evernote
On the fourth day, I talked about using Evernote. If you haven't gotten into that habit, now is the time to start. You'll want to sign up for a free account, install the plugin for your browser and every time you run across something interesting you'll want to "clip" it and save it to your notebook.
However, now that we've worked on our research for our book, no doubt you have some major themes you know will need to be worked on for your book. So what you'll want to do now is to consider creating a way to organize that.
Using Notebooks in Evernote
If you've been using Evernote, you're probably familiar with this screen. On the left sidebar is the Notes section, but just below that is Notebooks. Notebooks are an easy way to break out different areas of research. You might have one for historical, one for science, one for famous quotes and one for potential interviews. Whatever it is, you can use a different Notebook for each one to gather information. (I like to clip the about pages of people I want to interview… it reminds me who they are and it's linking to a way to contact them.)
Here's what my notebooks look like (my book was originally called "Found in Translation" and because I use Evernote for other projects, I used FOUND to remind me it was for the book.)
I had almost 800 notes. I also later created a FOUND-processed notebook, just as a way to start removing things that I had already used or decided not to use (that's why some of the notebooks are now empty, but the processed folder has 388 notes). It's really easy to move notes between notebooks.
Finally one last trick for research…
Knowing your areas of research is huge! Now that you know this, you can start setting up some passive alerts for those topics. For example, if you're writing about a topic as an authority, you'll want to know what other people are saying about that topic. Here are some places to look:
– New York Time articles (you have to log in but it's free). You can create an alert based on keywords or topic category. Click into "Create News Alert" to set your options.
– Google Alerts for keywords…
– Facebook groups about certain locations (expat groups can be helpful if you're researching the location your book takes place in…)
– Finding experts on Twitter and following them…
– Follow the industry events for your book topic, for example, if there's a big conference like SXSW.
– Specific Magazines: Some magazines will let you subscribe to just a single category of posts. For example, I tracked the science of Language Acquisition by subscribing to Science Daily (which just does basic reporting on new studies when they come out) so every time there was new research I'd get an email.
Then when you get the email, you can open the link, decide if it's relevant and clip it to Evernote. It only takes a few seconds of your day, and you'll have a boatload of things to look at when you're writing, so get started now!
|Daily Free Writing
|Set up Evernote (if you have not!)
|Create some alerts and sources for research - aim to have at least 5-10 sources set up and somewhat automated (you receive alerts or your follow them on FB or Twitter).

|Hey Geronimo!
Greg Chiapello...
Bass/Vocals - Hey Geronimo
Q. Hey Geronimo have a reputation for knowing how to party and it looks like you've got a crazy 60s themed Christmas party planned for The Zoo on the 21st. What can punters expect on the night?
Greg: Well it was going to be a surprise but Ross's Dad invented a time machine so everyone inside the zoo can time travel back to the 60's. I'm pretty excited to tell you the truth. I never thought time travel would come to fruition in my lifetime, so yeah the punters can expect that, that's ok I guess.
Q. You've had a big year with a well received set at BigSound Live and a national tour in support of the Special Best EP. Since it's the end of year, what's been your favourite band moment of 2012?
Greg: There is a song in the set where Pete isn't playing guitar, so one night in Sydney we organized for him to jump on my back mid song, we call it a rock n roll piggy back. I had forgotten we were going to do it mid set so when he jumped on me, I lunged forward and he flipped over me off stage onto his face. It looked painful, but it was also really funny. I'm glad he was ok though…
Q. Which one of you owns the puppets in the video for new single, 'Dreamboat Jack'? Don't pretend they're not yours.
Greg: They are Pete's. I have never owned puppets, they freak me out.
Q. What music have you been loving in 2012?
Greg: I have been listening to Liam Finn's album FOMO which is really good. Also have been really loving Hot Chip and their album In Our Heads. I got into Jonathan Richman's album I, Jonathon. Sam Cooke has been doing the rounds, as has Paul Simon. Also enjoyed watching old Billy Joel videos on youtube. Have been getting reacquainted with Wilco the last couple of weeks.
Q. Your summer festival season is pretty packed, with performances at Big Day Out, Homebake and Peats Ridge all coming up. These are three big festivals to be on the line up for... but what would be the one festival in the world you'd love to play and why?
|Billy Joel: Hey Geronimo approves. They very approve.
Q. Your summer festival season is pretty packed, with performances at Big Day Out, Homebake and Peats Ridge all coming up. These are three big festivals to be on the line up for... but what would be the one festival in the world you'd love to play and why?
Greg: I would love to play at Glastonbury . There is something about British music and festivals which does it for me. I have also watched some amazing footage of bands like Elbow, and Blur absolutely kill it there. There is also an amazing Travis DVD live from Glastonbury which I have watched about 30 times. The atmos there would be something I'd love to soak up and experience.
Q.Looking ahead to 2013, what have you guys got planned? Any new music fans can expect from Hey Geronimo during the year?
Greg: Yep we have been writing lots. We began work on the new record in November so we will work hard at that over the next couple of months and look to have something out mid year.
Q. Finish this sentence... all Hey Geronimo wants for Christmas is...
Greg: For our fans to make our future shows as memorable and as fun as they have made them in 2012. And also to write and record a hit song in 2013!
Hey Geronimo's swinging 60s Christmas party is Saturday 22 December at The Zoo in Brisbane. You're invited!

text: I thought I'd be done by now, but the twins had a different opinion on the shit I'm supposed to get done. I think the oldest one just wanted some time to himself, so the hiatus is just until he gets back. But don't worry, the doctor will be in soon. On the bright side, I've started looking at something else. Not so much "looking" as "started" something else. The boys will talk when they're ready, until then… I'll just work on something a little different. SO! Boys, you may take your time. I got this.

I have a very serious question about this season of The Bachelorette: will it ever end? I don't know, you guys. I just don't know. I've aged a lot, going through this journey with Andi. I think I got arthritis? I'm not sure. It's been a long road, is what I am saying. This week (week 34? 87?) Andi and her three remaining suitors take a trip to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, which undoubtedly is the perfect place to fall in love™. As usual, Andi's dates mostly consist of: walking around the city, exploring the city, and getting to know the city. There's a brief interlude with horses, but honestly, it doesn't go very well. In addition to hating the horses, Andi also decides that she's just not that into one of her final three contestants. Let's talk about what happened.
First date: Nick
Hey guys, did you know that Nick started out skeptical about this whole experience, but he's slowly come around? Well, that's the truth. He wasn't too sure about this whole dating a woman on national TV who is also dating like 20 other men thing – but boy has he changes his tune! He loves Andi – he's never felt this way before. But he hasn't told her yet. Luckily, they're in beautiful Punta Cana, a perfect place to fall in love, or as it may be, to tell your girlfriend that you love her before her two other boyfriends can say it. Somewhere, Marcus is crying.
On their date, Nick and Andi take a helicopter and make out. They make out on the beach. They make out in the water. They get out of the water and make out. It's a really interesting thing to watch, this making out in various locations on the beach. Fascinating. As Andi munches away on pita chips or something, Nick stammers through an attempt to express his feelings. Ultimately, he's unsuccessful. He's like, "Yeah, I…stuff. Hi, so, words? Andi!" and Andi seems to be doubting his commitment. She's also a little concerned about his past engagement, which he sort of brushed over with her, though his family was like, "Nick was a total f*cking mess, TRUTH." Nick admits that his fiancée broke it off and he "shut down" for about six months. Now he "looks back and laughs" about it, because okay? Andi finds this acceptable, because she's sort of an idiot when it comes to Nick.
At dinner, Nick comes prepared with helpful props. "I want to tell you a story," he says, opening up a handmade children's book. I honestly cannot decide if this is cute or not. I think it would be, if this wasn't The Bachelorette. His book, complete with crayon illustrations, tells the story of their relationship. The end of the book has empty pages to symbolize that their journey will still go on and they have yet to fill it in. Andi pees herself, basically, and says she loves it. "I love YOU!" Nick says, but Andi ignores him? So he gets up and takes her under a tree for no reason and says it again. He loves her. Andi is like, "Cool, let's have sex in the Fantasy Suite," and so they do.
Second date: Josh
OMG, I am so sick of Josh. Can we just forget he exists? No? Okay. Fine. But Josh is so tedious, you guys. When he sees Andi, he thinks she looks amazing. As they walk around the island, which Josh thinks is amazing, they see the local sights. The sights? Amazing. Because she cares so deeply about the things he cares about, Andi takes him to a baseball field and they join a group of children for a game. Playing baseball with the kids is amazing. Andi was really thoughtful for choosing to play baseball with him, because he used to play baseball professionally. "WHAAAAT!?" you ask – wait, no you don't. You knew that. Anyway, baseball is amazing. The date was amazing. Amazement in itself is truly amazing, especially when you're with Andi, because she is the most amazing girl.
At dinner, Andi questions Josh's ability to get serious. I am, frankly, amazed that they're still having this conversation. Josh says some stuff about how he'll make a great dad and he wants to "do whatever" with kids, which sounds vaguely alarming but I guess he just means baseball and not tying them up in a basement. Hopefully. Andi thinks his answers are amazing and they share some amazingly loud kisses. She offers him a night in the Fantasy Suite, which he thinks is- oh, you get the point.
Third date: Chris
Despite how much Andi likes Chris, she doesn't know if she's comfortable spending the night with him. "OMG ANDI IS BLIND!!!" everyone at home screams. No, just kidding. She's being mature, I get it. I just…can she not see Chris? I'm just asking out of concern. For her vision. But anyway, she's not sure if she and Chris are in a place when she wants to take that step. She had a great time at his hometown date, and he's a great guy, but she's just not feeling it. She's also not feeling their horseback riding date, which is not very romantic at all. Andi is terrified of horses and spends most of the time freaking out. Unfortunately for Chris, this is the high point of their date.
At dinner, Chris declares his love for Andi. She bursts into tears. Then she does that thing, where she uncontrollably word-vomits all over him. Andi needs to take a course in how to break up with someone. Breakups 101. First tip: do not ramble on endlessly for thirty minutes. Just pull off the bandage and let them go. Chris sits there and listens, his face scrunched up in pain. It's kind of awful, especially when she's like, "I can't blame Iowa, because I just don't want to be with you, haha!" No Fantasy Suite for Chris. Ouch.
Chris heads home in a limo and cries a bit. He's heartbroken, obviously. I think that contract to be the next Bachelor will make him feel better, though.
Totally unnecessary recap with Chris Harrison
Oh jeez, shut up already.
Rose ceremony
Chris Harrison welcomes Nick and Josh to the rose ceremony, pointing out almost needlessly that Chris is not there. Well yes, they can see that. Even though only two of them are left, they will still have a rose ceremony. I guess they didn't want to waste those nice boutonnieres? Well, guess who Andi gives a rose to? If you said Nick and Josh, you win! They accept her roses! That was super uneventful, you guys.
Next week, the men tell all!

To prepare for the surgery, you need to undergo many tests like ultrasound or CT (computed tomography) scan. Your physician may ask you to consume a laxative that will clear your bowels prior to the procedure. You may also be administered an antibiotic to inhibit any infection from occurring.
In general, you would be advised not to eat anything for 8 hours prior to the procedure, and most hospitals will instruct you to stop eating or drinking anything post midnight.
Talk to your doctor if you are taking any prescription or over-the-counter medications. They will suggest if you could continue to take it. It is also necessary to reveal if you are allergic to certain drugs.
If the surgery is performed through an abdominal incision, salpingo-oophorectomy is the prominent surgery that needs three to six weeks for complete recuperation. But if performed laparoscopically, the recovery time may be shorter.
Patient may feel some discomfort around the incision for a couple of days after surgery but within a month or so, patients can simultaneously get back to normal activities. You should avoid intensely stretching the thighs or the knees. Persistent back pain or bloody or scanty urine signals that the ureter may have been wounded during surgery.
It is natural to feel discomfort for some day. The degree of discomfort may differ based on the type of abdominal incisions, as the abdominal muscles must be stretched more so that the surgeon can view the ovaries properly. In order to cut down the risk of postoperative infection, antibiotics will be given.
When both ovaries are removed, women who do not have cancer are prescribed hormone replacement therapy to ease the symptoms of menopause that occur because estrogen produced by the ovaries is no longer present. If even part of one ovary remains, it will produce enough estrogen that a woman will continue to menstruate, unless her uterus was removed in a hysterectomy. To help offset the higher risks of heart and bone disease after loss of the ovaries, women should get plenty of exercise, maintain a low-fat diet, and ensure that the intake of calcium is adequate.
Return to normal activities takes anywhere from two to six weeks, depending on the type of surgery. When women have cancer, chemotherapy or radiation is often given in addition to surgery. Some women have emotional trauma following an oophorectomy, and can benefit from counseling and support groups.

Florida lineman Brett Heggie pushing for starting job at new position
GAINESVILLE, , Fla. — Florida returns the majority of its offensive line in 2017, but there will be one new starter for the Gators.
With Martez Ivey moving this spring from left guard to left tackle to replace NFL draft prospect David Sharpe, an interior spot is up for grabs.
Brett Heggie intends to take it.
Florida recruited Heggie as a center, and he was the nation's No. 6 prospect at the position in the 2016 class, according to the 247Sports composite rankings. However, he is now taking reps at left guard.
"It's been going great," Heggie said of the position change. "It took me one practice to get used to it. I'm doing a little bit of both right now, but that's where I'm at.
"Your hand is in the dirt, so you have to be faster off the ball. You really don't make as many calls, so you don't have to think about it too much. You just play ball really at guard."
Tyler Jordan solidified himself as the starting right guard, leaving Heggie to compete with Fred Johnson, a former tackle who started seven games at guard last season.
Johnson has two years of experience over Heggie, but the redshirt freshman is challenging him for the starting job.
"He's working hard, doing a heck of a job," offensive line coach Brad Davis said of Heggie. "He's a consciousness kid. He wants to do well. He spends a lot of time outside of required team activities studying film and being in our offense.
"He's kind of a gym rat, so to speak. He's kind of working himself into a player that we're going to rely on quite a bit this fall. Every day he's got to go out and compete and earn it. So far he's done a heck of a job for us."
A big reason for Heggie's emergence is the fact that he's now healthy. He spent the better part of 2016 recovering from a wrist injury.
"I broke my scaphoid my first game of my senior year," Heggie said. "I played nine games with it, and I didn't know it was broken. So then I had surgery and I was in a cast for eight months. It took a long time to heal. It took probably about a year to heal completely.
"Bowl week I started to feel a lot better, I used it a little bit more. It's still trying to get rid of bad habits and using my hand. It's an everyday fight with me, but I've come a long way. So I'm happy with that."
Heggie said he is more comfortable with Florida's offense and the speed of the college game. Couple that with his health, and the former Under Armour All-American could push for playing time in 2017.
"This spring I think I've made some big strides," Heggie said. "The mental part of it with the playbook, I think I've got it down over a year now. Then my wrist, the physical aspect has been a lot better.
"I'm just trying to get better every single day to contribute to this team as much as I can."

There's not a lot of room for making big design statements in my tiny boat, but one area I thought I could make an impact was the kitchen worktops. I wanted to use some really nice wood for this, and Emma suggested Keighley Tree Services – a tree surgeon and timber yard not far from Todmorden.
They showed me a wide range of English timber including oak, elm and ash, all of it from nearby. In the end I went for a few slices of lovely, thick oak.
I'm lucky to have a dad who apparently has a passion for collecting industrial industrial woodworking machinery, so I hauled my wood down to Shrewsbury where my parents live and we spent the next two days planing, sanding, joining and finishing to make two beautiful workshops for my kitchen. I'm really proud of the results and can't wait to get them onto the boat.
First, we had to cut the timber into slices which would fit through the planer. The wood was then planed to create a smooth, clean surface:
Then we joined the slices back together again using biscuit joints:
The final step was to sand the pieces down to a super-smooth finish and coat with Danish Oil:

Arizona has fired football coach Rich Rodriguez after a notice of claim was filed with the state attorney general's office alleging he ran a hostile workplace.
The Tucson Daily Star revealed the notice of claim on Tuesday after making a public-records request. The paper said the claim was filed last Thursday by a former employee. A notice of claim is a legal document that signals a lawsuit will be filed.
The Daily Star reported that the notice was filed after the University's Office of Institutional Equity retained outside counsel to investigate allegations of sexual harassment from a former employee. The investigation, which concluded last week, did not find enough to fire Rodriguez, but the university became concerned with the "climate and direction" of the program.
Arizona athletic director Dave Heeke announced Rodriguez's firing in a statement issued by the school and said the separation terms of his contract will be honored.
"After conducting a thorough evaluation of our football program and its leadership, both on and off the field, President Robbins and I feel it is in the best interest of the University of Arizona and our athletics department to go in a new direction," Heeke said. "We'll move through the coaching search in an effort to identify a head coach that will build a solid foundation for our program and create an identity of Arizona football that the university, Tucson and southern Arizona communities can be proud of. We're excited about the future of our football program and we look forward to introducing our new head coach at the completion of the search process."
Rodriguez arrived in Tucson after an ugly split with Michigan, where he coached for three seasons. He had an immediate impact on the Wildcats, leading them to four straight bowl games.
Arizona took a step back last season, losing eight straight games while finishing 3-9. The Wildcats were one of college football's more surprising teams this season after opening 6-2. They fell flat after that, losing four of their final five, including a 38-35 setback against Purdue in the Holiday Bowl.
Rodriguez was 43-39 in six seasons at Arizona.
In August, Creative Artists Agency, which represented him until 2015, sued Rodriguez on claims he owed it more than $230,000 in past-due fees.
Rodriguez was the head coach for the University of Michigan from 2008 to 2010.

Q: Why can't I set or display the values of some static variables in
my program?
A: This seems to be a limitation of the COFF debugging information
emitted by GCC by default: the debuggers cannot display or set the value
of an uninitialized static variables (those who are in the
section of the program). A work-around is to initialize these
variables, which causes the linker to put them into the

It was with that in mind that I planned my trip to the 5th Annual Ronnie Thomson Appreciation Day, a one-day mountain bike festival combining factory tours, a short endurance race, and party.
Usually held in honor of Ronnie's birthday, this year would be different. Ronnie passed away just a few days before the event. May he rest in peace.
Ronnie must be in a better place. I think he went to heaven and got a position in the weather department, turning the knobs that open the clouds. That Saturday was some of the rainiest, shittiest weather I've had the displeasure of standing around in. Here I thought heading south from Pittsburgh in January would bring me warmth, but no.
Many of the fun events were cancelled, the rain fly had blown off my tent, and my schwag was wet. All shaping up to be a real dismal time.
But no. What is it about mountain bikers getting together that's so life giving? Good friends, good food and good drink, that's the stuff that matters, and this was all reinforced by the situation at hand. In the morning we all stood with Ronnie's family for a moment of silence, followed by much talk about his legacy. But that's another story. There was a race to be run.
The 4:20 race sponsored by Sweetwater Beer. Yep, wet as it was we advocates turned our heads and let 'em run. 29 people started in the rain, and while the race was supposed to last four hours and 20 minutes, it became a test of who could stay out the longest—20 of the riders only finished one lap.
One rider who went the whole distance was Kari Lindner (Sorella Cycling). She won the women's event with six laps. Rachel Neidert coming after four laps for 2nd, and Nanrita O'Dea (Vassago and 559 Performance) coming in after three. Didn't pay much attention to the men's event.
With the race out of the way it was time to celebrate around the space heater. And that we did. Many fine libations were to be had, including fine Bourbon, 18 year-old rum, Hot Damn! Cinnamon schnapps and moonshine to top it all off.
Here's to Ronnie Thomson, and all my new friends in Georgia. —Maurice

Granite Villa Guesthouse
Built in 1892 by a wealthy local merchant Granite Villa is an imposing traditional Victorian house that has retained many of its' original features, notably the tiled entrance hall. It first became a guesthouse in 1960 and as a result has a long tradition of providing hospitality to visitors.
Currently, we can provide accommodation and breakfast for up to 10 visitors. All rooms are en-suite.
Granite Villa guesthouse is situated conveniently within a minute's walking distance of the Main Street. The Ben Bhraggie walk is also just a few minutes away.
The award-winning beaches to the north and south of the pier are a pleasure to walk along and provide safe bathing for those who like to swim. If the thought of the water temperature is a little off putting there is a marvellous leisure centre in the village, which provide a warmer environment to swim. There are complementary passes (max. 4 people) available for the Granite Villa guests.
The golf course, designed by James Braid, which is a mix of links, parkland and heath is rarely crowded. There are also facilities for bowling, tennis and football as well as a number of play areas for children. The karting circuit was host to the Five Nations Championship in 2005 and there are regular race meetings held there. Sprint race meetings (cars) are also held regularly.
The Loch Fleet nature reserve three miles south of Golspie is an easy walk, which affords visitors the opportunity to see seals sunbathing on the sand banks. In the summer Ospreys can be seen feeding on the loch.

I received an email this morning from Marc Chayer, vice-president of club operations for the Whitecourt Wolverines regarding that group withdrawing their offer to purchase the Centennials.
What I find most interesting about this release is that the group repeatedly says that media reports were contradictory to what they were told, except they never ONCE returned a phone call or email to me once they pulled their offer. I was willing to give them the opportunity to explain their reasoning, but they didn't take me up on the offer. That being said, I'm not going to belabour the issue, nor get into a peeing match between the Stark Group and the Centennials Board of Directors. The Cents Board is here, the Stark Group is not, so as a result where my support lies is crystal clear.
Re; Merritt Centennials Proposed Sale
In light of recent reports with respect to the collapsed sale of the Merritt Centennials, we felt compelled to bring the community up to speed as to our reasons for withdrawing our application to purchase the franchise.
Throughout our discussions it was understood by our management team that the situation in Merritt as it related to the team was a grave one indeed. With an abysmal record the season previous, a need for a coaching change (which had already been announced) and a distinct lack of resources both financially and operationally were probably the chief concerns that would need to be addressed.
From the initial start of the discussion, it was and remained our position that the team was under the direct control of the society until such a time that league approval of the sale had been achieved. This point was reiterated on several occasions and was evidenced by the fact that the contract negotiated with Joey Bouchard was in fact agreed to by the society board of directors and not our organization. Through repeated requests, we had asked for information as it pertained to the previous season's door counts, vendor's lists, suppliers, sponsors etc.
Despite reports in the media to the contrary, this information was not supplied. At one point in the process, our management team was left out of the conversation for 60 days while the society worked with Joey Bouchard. It had become evident that the "assumption" had been made that this was done deal when in fact our own insecurity regarding the sale was increasing and in fact we cancelled the sale on July 1 due to that exact reason.
It was only after emergency discussions in which we stipulated the need for an active and concise dialogue and partnership that the process was restarted.
At our meeting with the BCHL Franchise Committee on the 25th of July, we were again surprised with information which was either false, or simply not reported to anyone either at the league or to our firm.
While we approached the situation as realists in the sense that we knew of the challenges presented, the mitigating factor was the distinct lack of information coupled with varying stories as to the team's progress during the off season. For instance, at the league Franchise Committee meeting we were stunned to hear a report given that stated that the team had in fact sold over 250 season tickets yet our last report had been that only 20 had been sold. Further, a report filed by Radio NL quotes Maddison Canuel as saying only 100 of the tickets had been sold.
We received repeated reports from Joey Bouchard that he had requested his pay on numerous occasions but had often had to resort to "badgering" the team officials to be paid. It was felt at our offices that simply put, the current team ownership was simply waiting for the league approval and was seriously avoiding having to invest any further into the team and that once the transaction had been completed, there would be no help from the society as it related to the teams day to day operations.
This issue it must be pointed out was extremely important as the business plan submitted to the BCHL not only had allowed for local ownership (Frank Etchart) but it also called for the continued involvement of the members of the society in the day to day operations of the team. This fact was well known to the society and had been agreed upon. Our primary request throughout the process was that we have open and honest discussions with regard to the team's state of affairs so that we might be able to incorporate a strategy that would see the team return to the competitive ranks of the BCHL. On this point we were constantly frustrated and in fact in most instances our requests went unanswered.
It was and remained our intent to go ahead with the purchase of the team up until the day of the league wide conference call. With the facts as outlined we were simply unsure of the level of commitment that would forthcoming from the society members to assist us in making the franchise viable. On the brink of a substantial investment on our end, the lack of solid communications and facts as they pertained to our questions we felt that no other option existed for our firm except to cancel the sale at that time.
We would also wish to note that an explanation was made to both the league and to the Society President the day of the league wide conference call outlining our position and why we had to withdraw the offer at that time despite reports to the contrary. In our visits to the City of Merritt, we found that indeed the city should be home to the Centennials and that given an honest effort by a partnership forged with trust and a commitment to bring a quality team back to Merritt this endeavour would meet with success. In our discussions with the BCHL we found a group of experienced professionals who knew of the challenges we would face and were willing to assist us in any way possible, unfortunately, we did not find this same spirit with the society.
We have sincerely regretted having had to withdraw our offer and have since stated that we would be willing to revisit the issue should an invitation be forthcoming, however it must be understood that the good of the community and the team must be forefront in the discussion simply due to the fact that the confidence by prospect players, the league and all involved is low and the teams very survival depends on an honest and open effort by ownership.
Sincerely and without prejudice,
Stark Sports Entertainment

Dead Patriot Films' Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire pulls together scholars, judges, Civil Rights attorneys, law enforcement personnel and others to educate Americans on one basic fact: Second Amendment rights are Civil Rights.
The film is narrated by Ice-T, and the rapper uses this role to control the flow of the film and keep it on point.
Minutes into the film, Ice-T asks:
Some politicians and scholars argue that the Second Amendment to our Constitution is outdated and no longer valid in our society. But can we throw out the foundation of our country, and the individual bricks called "Civil Rights," in the name of public safety? What did our Founding Fathers envision when they wrote the Second Amendment?
This question is answered by various scholars, among them David Kopel, PhD: "Guns have been part of American culture ever since the first Europeans showed up with their guns four centuries ago. And ever since [then] they've been an important part of what America stands for."
Kopel continues by noting that the Founders used the 2nd Amendment to recognize a preexisting right:
Just like your First Amendment right to assemble, your First Amendment right to freedom of religion, [and] your First Amendment right to freedom of speech, your Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms was not created by the federal government. [Rather,] those were all seen by the framers as fundamental, preexisting human rights which all humans had, simply by virtue of being human.
The film stresses that our Founding Fathers hedged on the right to keep and bear arms for two chief reasons: 1. Self-Defense. 2. To repel a tyranny. After witnesses and scholars speak to the critical self-defense component Ice-T narrates the history of the Battle of Athens: a post-World War II clash of arms in a sleepy Tennessee town where recently returned veterans had to use their rifles to "[liberate] the ballot boxes" from a corrupt Sheriff who had bullied the people into submission while the war was going on.
The film then makes this same point–perhaps more forcefully–by showing what happens to Americans when they don't have guns with which to defend themselves from armed criminals or a tyrannical government. To do this, they cover the illegal confiscation of firearms that took place in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. Homeowners who had been able to defend their property from looters suddenly found their firearms looted by their own local government and then found themselves easy prey for the gangs of civilian looters that followed.
Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire also stresses how gun control was once a tool used to insure that whites were armed but blacks were not, following the Civil War. The larger point is that gun control has historically kept those in power better armed than those considered subservient at the time. In the post-Civil War era this meant that Democrats throughout the South passed "black codes" to prevent blacks from being armed and to heavily regulate any arms they might obtain.
At one point in the film Ice-T explains more recent events, like the Supreme Court decisions in District of Columbia v. Heller (2008) and McDonald v. Chicago (2010). Regarding McDonald, he discusses how the Second Amendment "applies to the states through the 14th Amendment. It can have limited restrictions such as not allowing the mentally ill to possess guns, or banning guns in sensitive buildings and schools." But he also shows that through these cases–particularly Heller–the phrase "in common use" came into play as well.
UCLA law professor Eugene Volokh, PhD, says that this phrase may prevent future gun bans at the state level based on whether the gun in view is "in common use" among the people. Other commentators in the film said this phrase may especially apply to attempts to ban the AR-15.
Dead Patriot Films also uses Assaulted to show that politically driven attacks on "assault weapons" are part of a slippery slope: part of an "incrementalism" that allows politicians to stand in front of cameras and demonize a whole class of weapons based on cosmetic features that those same politicians often don't even understand.
In closing, the film reminds viewers that Seconnd Amendment rights are Civil Rights. And Civil Rights attorney Donald Kilmer, Jr., provides this enlightening information: "Gun crime [and] violent crime overall are down in this country … yet firearm ownership is at an all-time high."
In the shadow of these sobering facts, Ice-T rhetorically asks: "So the question becomes, how much of our Civil Rights are we willing to give up for a sense of safety? … Do we abandon our natural rights for a promise of safety that the government can't or won't provide when we need it?"
Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire was written and directed by Kris Koenig. It can be purchased from DeadPatriotFilms.com and viewed over all major cable pay-per-view outlets. It also can be rented or purchased on iTunes, Vudu, Google Play and Amazon.com.
