Mundo Mo'y Akin (lit. Your World is Mine) or Deception (international title) is a Filipino drama series created by RJ Nuevas, developed by Denoy Navarro-Punio and produced by GMA Network. It premiered on March 18, 2013 on the network's coveted GMA Telebabad block, replacing Pahiram ng Sandali and on March 19, 2013 worldwide via GMA Pinoy TV. The series concluded its twenty-five-week run on September 6, 2013 with a total of 122 episodes, and replaced by Akin Pa Rin ang Bukas on its timeslot. The show headlines Sunshine Dizon, Alden Richards, Louise delos Reyes, Lauren Young and Angelika dela Cruz with Jolina Magdangal, Gabby Eigenmann and Jaclyn Jose. Michele Borja served as the executive producer while Andoy Ranay directed the show.[1][2]
The series follows a compelling story line that explores the insatiable quest for beauty, and wealth. The main characters find themselves ensnared in a game of deceit and betrayal and will stop at anything to gain power and prestige.[3]
Originally slated to air for sixteen weeks, the series was awarded several extensions due to its consistent good performance in the ratings game. The series was also considered a critical success, positively received by viewers, writers and critics, from its premiere episode.[4]
Cast and characters[edit]
Major characters[edit]
- Sunshine Dizon portrays Perlita Mendoza †, Marilyn's loving and protective mother. Perlita is a simple woman who, although deprived of a beauty appearance, has a kind heart and an adorable character. For her, "it is what on the inside that counts!" She works as a household helper at the Carbonel mansion, wherein she crosses paths with Giselle—the wife of her boss, Ziggy Carbonel—oblivious that the former is her own best friend Rodora Santos in disguise. She was expelled from the Carbonels along with Marilyn after disliking Charito's treatment. As a mother, Perlita is willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of her beloved daughter. But what she does not know is that her daughter is actually not hers.[5][6] She is the one that revealed that her daughter is Darlene, Giselle is Rodora, and Marilyn is the true Carbonel. She surrendered her rights as surrogate mother to Marilyn after signing a deal with Charito. Charito paid her medical bills provided that she will surrender Marilyn into the Carbonels. Marilyn returned to her after she discovered that her family sabotaged their relationship with Jerome but George treated her bad so she returned to her family. With complications of diabetes, she met her tragic death from a gas explosion at a hotel while trying to save Marilyn from Darlene's plot. Her death led to the reconciliation of the characters.
- Angelika dela Cruz portrays Giselle Atienza-Carbonel / Rodora Santos, Ziggy Carbonel's wife and mother to Darlene. With a beautiful face, an impeccable figure, plus a handsome and wealthy husband, Giselle holds the world in her hands. But behind her beautiful appearance and perfect life is a secret past. In reality, she is Rodora Santos, a dark-skinned and ugly woman who underwent plastic surgery with the help of Dona Carmen's wealth. Worse, to make her deception more realistic, she switches her ugly baby with Perlita's beautiful child. Giselle, however, still dreads the moment when she will have to tell Ziggy the truth. Fears of abandonment push her, however, to keep the secret hidden.[7] Charito later knew her identity and she expelled her from the resort but she returned when Marilyn got a car accident. She was the mastermind of the plot to sabotage Marilyn and Jerome's relationship but she later regretted it. Her face is destroyed while trying to save Perlita from a tragic death but Charito earns money to reconstruct her face while Giselle is starting a new life abroad.
- Jolina Magdangal portrays Zenaida "Aida" Carbonel, the niece of Charito Carbonel's late husband, Ziggy's cousin and the surrogate mother of Jerome Alvarez. Aida finished her degree in Business Management but ended up working for the Carbonels as a constant aid to Charito's every whim and demand. Aida believes that she also has the rights for the Carbonel's vast properties and is determined to reclaim what is rightfully hers. She holds the key to the secret behind the real identities of Darlene Carbonel and Marilyn Mendoza and uses it to blackmail Giselle Carbonel to get what she wants, as well as to exact revenge on Doña Charito and Ziggy.[8] But Perlita preceded her in revealing the identities of Marilyn, Darlene and Giselle. She later reconciled with Charito after Perlita died. She along with Charito was appointed by George and Darlene to manage the resort.
- Gabby Eigenmann portrays Ziggy Carbonel / Mendoza, Doña Charito's only son, Giselle's husband and father to Darlene. Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, Ziggy is used to being given everything he wants. He works as the general manager of "Carbonel Barongs"–their family business, and later as a resort owner. Happy-go-lucky and vain, Ziggy believes that life is all about pleasure. He is also known for being a womanizer and loves being surrounded by beautiful and sexy women. A vicious man, he can stand up to anyone and he never hesitates to speak his mind on things. But behind his seemingly "perfect world" hid a deep, dark secret that his wife, Giselle has been hiding for him for a long time.[9][10] He was reluctant first to accept Marilyn as his daughter but he accepted her after her car accident. He was one of the conspirators of the separation of Marilyn and Jerome. He was later beat until he turned crippled by Anton's men who is their rival in business after failing to pay their debts to him. He still loved Giselle even her face was destroyed by the explosion because he saw her bravery and he was not just beautiful. He started a new life with Giselle and Marilyn abroad.
- Lauren Young portrays Darlene Carbonel / Mendoza, Perlita Mendoza's biological daughter but was switched with Marilyn. Safe in the make-believe that Ziggy and Giselle Carbonel are indeed her real family, Darlene grew up in affluence and is used to getting whatever she wants, except for one thing — the love of her mother, Giselle Carbonel. She is the main antagonist of the series. She finds comfort in Marilyn Mendoza's company, the daughter of their household helper, Perlita. Despite the apparent differences in their social status, the two became best of friends. However, their relationship starts to falter when they fell in love with the same man – Jerome Alvarez.[6] She returned to her biological mother, Perlita Mendoza, after the Carbonels discovered that Marilyn is the true heiress. She tried to kill Marilyn while driving drunk but this helped Marilyn to undergo reconstructive surgery. Charito filed a legal case against her for reckless driving but Perlita approached Charito and she gave her a condition that she should surrender her rights as a surrogate mother to Marilyn. She was used by Charito to separate Jerome into Marilyn with a condition to provide medical aid to Perlita and education for her. She found out Marilyn working into a first-class hotel and she invited her into her birthday party but she only treated her as a maid. She found out that Ria gave Jerome back to Marilyn and this made her to try to kill Marilyn into a gas explosion in the kitchen but Perlita died instead. This made her regret all her sins against Marilyn and made her return Jerome back to Marilyn after knowing that he really loved Marilyn.
- Alden Richards portrays Jerome Alvarez, the foster child of Aida Carbonel. Good-looking, street-smart, romantic with the soul of a dreamer, Jerome finished Culinary Arts and now working as a sous-chef in the resort owned by the Carbonels. Jerome has an unrequited crush on the bratty Darlene Carbonel, and has been long-time friends with both her and Marilyn Mendoza [a girl who despite possessing an ugly appearance lies a heart of gold]. He eventually embroiled in a complicated love triangle between the two girls.[11][12] He was separated by the Carbonels into Marilyn so he found a friend named Ria. Ria later gave him back to Marilyn but this made Darlene to try to kill Marilyn. Darlene later gave him back to Marilyn after Perlita died from her plot to kill Marilyn. He is applying a passport in the end to meet Marilyn abroad.
- Louise delos Reyes portrays Marilyn Mendoza / Carbonel-Renacia, the rightful heiress of the Carbonels but was switched at birth with Darlene and grew up in poverty. Marilyn is a caring and obedient daughter who strives to better herself for the sake of her mother, Perlita Mendoza. She is intelligent, brave and kind-hearted, but despite all of these good qualities, Marilyn will experience being bullied and humiliated by others because of her unattractive appearances. During these hard times, Marilyn finds comfort in the company of Darlene Carbonel, the daughter of the family that her mother Perlita works for. But their friendship will be put to test as one guy comes between them – Jerome Alvarez.[11] She was accepted into the Carbonels due to the DNA test and Charito took her to the US to undergo into a reconstructive surgery for six months as a recovery to her car accident. She was reluctant at first to accept the surgery but she had no choice due to her accident. She was introduced by Charito as a Carbonel after the reconstruction but her relationship with Jerome is at stake. Charito conspires with Darlene to separate Jerome from Marilyn until she found out their secret and decided to return to Perlita after she surrendered her rights as a surrogate mother to Marilyn. She later returned to the Carbonels after George's treatment to her when he returned. But her family business is on the verge of bankruptcy and she was hired by Charito into a first-class hotel that was managed by Charito's friend. Darlene found her in the hotel and she invites her into her birthday party but she was only treated as a maid there. Ria decided to give Jerome back to Marilyn but Darlene could not accept it and she tried to kill Marilyn by trying to explode the gas in the kitchen but Perlita died instead. She forgave Darlene later and started a new life abroad.
- Jaclyn Jose portrays Doña Charito Vda. de Carbonel, the matriarch of the affluent Carbonel clan. A former beauty queen and model, Charito now owns and runs "Carbonel Barongs", a well-known Barong Tagalog and Filipiniana shop. Arrogant and highly judgmental, Charito believes in the importance of beauty and hates ugly people [making Perlita and Marilyn the objects of her scorn]. A perfectionist and ambitious woman, she will do anything and everything just to accomplish her goals. Unaware of her granddaughter's true identity, Charito treats Darlene like a real princess—she spoils her to no end and sees to it that she has everything.[13][14] After knowing that Marilyn is her true granddaughter, she banished Darlene from her family. She banned Marilyn from meeting Perlita but she paid Perlita's medical bills provided that Marilyn will return to her family. She paid Marilyn's reconstructive surgery in the US as a recovery from her car accident so that she can introduce her into her friends. She is the one that made a deal with Darlene to separate Marilyn from Jerome provided that she pay Perlita's medical bills and provide Darlene with education. Her business suffered bankruptcy and she was forced to sell her mansion to Perlita, her former maid, but she rejected it. She was also forced to kiss Perlita's foot as Perlita's revenge, since she kissed Charito's foot to treat Marilyn's illness, after persuading Perlita again to buy the mansion that is worth P800 million. She got mad at Perlita and realized that Darlene inherited her vindictiveness from her. She later asked forgiveness to Perlita when she died. She was appointed along with Aida, who she forgave, to manage the resort.
Recurring characters[edit]
Several supporting characters were given expansive and recurring appearances in the progressive story line.
- Kier Legaspi portrays Romeo "Romy" Alvarez, the irresponsible father of Jerome Alvarez and Aida Carbonel's hot-tempered live in partner. Romy is a lazy leech who wants to get rich but refuses work and loves to gamble. He left Aida and Jerome after discovering that she was making a deal with the Carbonels.
- Frances Ignacio portrays Mama Josie, Perlita Mendoza's comic best friend and confidante, and Marilyn's godmother. Loud, bubbly and unconventional, Josie owns and runs a beauty parlor. She proves herself a true friend as she constantly stands by Perlita's side through all the latter's ordeals.
- Sef Cadayona portrays Nonoy Pambide, the friend of Jerome who also works in the resort owned by the Carbonels. He knows about the special relationship between Jerome Alvarez and Darlene Carbonel and soon notices Marilyn Mendoza's feelings for his friend. He has a biting and sarcastic wit, serving as somewhat of a comic relief throughout the series. In the 26th episode, he asks Marilyn for a dinner date, only to reveal later that he only did that because of a deal he made with Jerome.
- Rita De Guzman portrays Alison Alcantara, the mean-spirited buddy of Darlene Carbonel. She is quite against Jerome Alvarez for her friend. She is also quite against Perlita for her mother due to her ugliness. She is opinionated and often can't help but express her strongly held beliefs.
- Marc Acueza portrays Harry Renacia, Marilyn's new-found friend, working as a television news reporter. Harry pretends to be Marilyn's boyfriend (to make Jerome jealous) for quite some time on the series, until he realized he already fall in love for her—for real. He left Marilyn after realizing that she loves Jerome.
- Jojit Lorenzo portrays Chef Andy Santos, Jerome's business partner, friend, confidante, and somewhat a father figure. He is the former head chef of the Carbonels but he later decides to partner up with Jerome and Nonoy and put up their own restaurant. The character provides comic relief to the otherwise dramatic events that plague Jerome.
Production and development[edit]
The series was conceptualized by RJ Nuevas for GMA Entertainment TV and intended for an early 2013 premiere. Nuevas began developing the series mid-2012 under the title Ang Mundo Ko'y Ikaw (lit. You Are My World)[15] and later changed to Mundo Mo'y Akin (lit. Your World is Mine). The project was put on the fast track since the network's supposed line up of primetime series were cancelled/shelved. Denoy Navarro-Punio assigned as head writer while Michele Borja served as the executive producer for the entire run of the show. The network assigned Andoy Ranay to direct the show. Ranay described the series as an "over the top drama and flavored more of a Mexican telenovela."[16]
The production began February 28, 2013. Most of the series' scenes were shot in Hacienda Isabella in Indang, Cavite. Some other locations include Tagaytay City and Midas Hotel and Casino in Roxas Boulevard, Metro Manila.
Originally slated to air for sixteen weeks, the series was awarded three weeks extension because of its consistent high ratings and positive feedback[17]
The show features eight regular casts: Sunshine Dizon was chosen to play the protagonist, Perlita Mendoza. This series also served as Dizon's comeback project after her four-year hiatus from showbusiness. Dizon described the project as "A very good one that is hard to refuse. The story itself convinced me to accept the job. When they laid down the storyline, I was really moved." Mundo Mo'y Akin is one of the two television dramas she signed-up for the network for the year 2013.[18] Angelika dela Cruz was chosen to play Rodora Santos and Giselle Carbonel. In an interview, Dela Cruz said that at first, she had qualms accepting the role because "she finds it a bit weird and unrealistic for her age to play a mother to a teenage girl." After several discussions with the production people regarding the concept, story line and her character, Dela Cruz finally accepted the role. Prior to this, Dizon and Dela Cruz had previously worked together on several television series before, such as Umulan Man o Umaraw (2000) and Ikaw Lang Ang Mamahalin (2001).[19]
The series also reunites the tandem of Alden Richards and Louise delos Reyes. The two became household names with the popularity of their characters in One True Love as Tisoy and Elize.[20] Richards and Delos Reyes portray the roles of Jerome Alvarez and Marilyn Mendoza in the series, respectively. The two described their roles as "more mature and more serious than their previous teeny bopper roles."[12] Lauren Young signed on to portray the antagonist Darlene Carbonel. This series served as Young's first project after she transferred and inked an exclusive contract with GMA Network.[21]
The antagonist role, Aida Carbonel was originally offered to Agot Isidro but she turned it down because she found the role "quite similar" to her popular character Leila Samonte in the 2012 hit series, One True Love.[22] The role went to Jolina Magdangal, who says "it's my first time to play antagonist role [...] it's kinda weird but challenging."[23] Gabby Eigenmann signed on to portray the role Ziggy Carbonel. He was also the first actor cast and said "I do not mind it playing another antagonist. There is so much challenge from it. People never get bored of it, including myself."[24] Veteran actress Jaclyn Jose signed on to play the antagonist character Doña Charito Carbonel.[25]

According to AGB Nielsen Philippines Mega Manila households ratings, the series debuted strongly at 22.7% ratings and landed on the fourth spot on that date, March 18, 2013.[26] While its recap episode [March 28, 2013] garnered 21% ratings and became the most-watched primetime program that date.[27] The 68th episode of the series garnered its highest rating since the pilot, 31.4% rating (AGB Nielsen Philippines Mega Manila households ratings,dated June 24, 2013), against its new competitor Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala with 22.3%.[28] The series occupied the top spot on the Top 10 Most-Watched Primetime Programs (Mega Manila and Urban Luzon) from June 24–28, 2013.[29] On July 12, 2013 the series claimed the top spot in the list of most watched programs across Nation Urban Philippines, Urban Luzon and Mega Manila. Based on data from Nielsen TV Audience Measurement (overnight data), the show became the highest rating program in NUTAM with an average household rating of 27.9%. It likewise led the lists of most watched programs in Urban Luzon and Mega Manila, which represent 76 and 59 percent of the total urban TV household population in the entire country, with an average household rating of 33.2% and 36.4%, respectively.[30]
The series was considered a critical success, positively received by viewers and writers, from its premiere episode. Nestor Torre of Philippine Daily Inquirer said "The series generally made a positive impression on me, due to the confident and believable portrayals of its two leads, Angelika dela Cruz and Sunshine Dizon. And I appreciated the show's penchant for brisk storytelling. Unlike other series that start two generations in the past, this one begins with the two leads already as young adults."[31] Entertainment columnist, Joe Barrameda of Abante described the series as "talk of the town" because of the grand scenes and exciting flow of story.[32] Dinno Erece of the blog Show and Tell praised Jolina Magdangal's performances in the series, said that "I can see her effectiveness as an anti-hero."[33] Abante Tonite's resident entertainment writer, praised the acting performances of Jaclyn Jose, stating that "she is one of the reasons why I watching the show", and described her performance as "effortless".[34] Jojo Gabinete of Abante praised Gabby Eigenmann's powerful acting performances particularly in episode 67, and he is looking forward for another acting nomination and award for Eigenmann.[35] In his review, Isah Red of Manila Standard Today also praised Jaclyn Jose's acting, said that "Jose's bravura performance [in the scene] when she went into hysterics after hearing words from Perlita that Marilyn is Ziggy's daughter; and when she reacted to the DNA test results confirming that Darlene isn't her son's daughter. Wow! Nobody can beat Jose in that department." Red also praised Gabby Eigenmann's performance said that "Eigenmann's reaction [in the scene] when the DNA results confirmed Marilyn is her daughter, he simply held Darlene's hand and cried quietly. The actor showed restraint only the best actors in the industry can do. Though I am no big fan of soap operas, I think with Jose and Eigenmann around, it won't be much of a waste of time to sit and watch and maybe have some tears go by for 45 minutes," he added.[36] On July 4, 2013 edition of his column, Red praised Louise delos Reyes acting performance particularly in the scene where de los Reyes […] visited Perlita (Dizon) in the hospital where she is recovering after a brain surgery, "she started showing very realistic emotions when someone sees a member of a family in that kind of state. She cried real tears even as she was blurting out her feelings for a person she knew as her mother. And that was continuous, without cuts. That's what I call good acting! And De los Reyes didn't mind that theprosthesis applied to her face to make her look "ugly" would even make her features even more horrid than already was."[37]

Nearly half of young Americans lack confidence in justice system: survey
By Alex Dobuzinskis
(Reuters) - Nearly half of young Americans believe the U.S. justice system has racial and ethnic biases and they strongly believe the use of police body cameras will make law enforcement fairer, a Harvard University study showed on Wednesday.
The survey was released as Baltimore recovered from riots this week that followed the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who died after suffering a spine injury while in police custody.
The unrest has renewed a debate over race and policing that has flared in demonstrations across the country since the deaths last year of unarmed black men at the hands of white police officers in Ferguson, Missouri, and New York City.
In a survey of Americans ages 18 to 29, Harvard's Institute of Politics asked if they were confident the U.S. judicial system could "fairly judge people without bias for race and ethnicity."
Forty-nine percent of respondents said they had not much or no confidence, the researchers said.
Among African-Americans, 66 percent said they had not much or no confidence in the system's fairness, while 53 percent of Hispanics expressed similar misgivings, the study found.
The survey also found 80 percent of those asked said equipping police officers with body cameras could help reduce racial inequalities in the justice system.
The finding comes a day after the Los Angeles Police Commission approved rules governing the widespread use of body cameras in the nation's second largest city, bringing it a step closer to becoming the largest U.S. metropolis to provide the vast majority of officers with the devices.

A new photography exhibition focusing on artists of The Royal Ballet runs this weekend (Friday 25 - Sunday 27 January) at The Hospital Club in Covent Garden.
The exhibition, entitled 'Now is all there is – Bodies in Motion', was created by renowned international photographer Rick Guest in collaboration with leading fashion stylist Olivia Pomp. Royal Ballet artists and creative team members depicted include Marianela Nuñez, Thiago Soares, Edward Watson, Zenaida Yanowsky and Wayne McGregor.
'The exhibition has evolved over the course of two to three years,' explained Rick, 'we've built up this fantastic collection of images, and when Kevin O'Hare saw it, he thought an exhibition would be a fitting way to mark his first season.'
The exhibition, which takes its name from a quote by choreographer George Balanchine, is described as a modern take on the classical world of ballet and a coming together of three separate disciplines: photography, dance and fashion.
'Balanchine's plea of "now is all there is, get on with it, just do it now" is equally as important for dancers as it is for photography, which is a one-click moment,' continued Rick, 'likewise for contemporary fashion. In this exhibition, all these things come together.'
Stylist Olivia, who has worked with Rick on a wide range of international commissions, used evocative and unconventional fashion to capture the dancers' abilities in a different light, away from the main stage.
'The whole idea was to take the dancers outside their comfort zone, which was why we shot them away from the opera house,' she explained. 'The costumes, whether wings, or a cape, or big skirts, give another element and become part of the body."
The images highlight the physicality of ballet, capturing the dancers in fleeting moments of time to illustrate the balance and poise demanded by dance.
'We didn't have choreographed sequences when we were shooting. We just asked the dancers to give us what they wanted. They weren't performing to an audience of 2,300, they weren't doing it on a sprung floor. They were dancing in a studio, on a hard floor, in front of four people. As such, they became portraits rather than being about choreography'
The exhibition is taking place at The Hospital Club, 24 Endell Street, London, WC2H 9HQ and is free to attend.
It will be open to the public on Friday 25 January 10am – 4pm, Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 January 10am – 6pm. All pieces are for sale and limited to six prints each. View and buy prints online.
The Royal Ballet's Masterclasses raise the curtain on the rehearsal process, allowing you to see 'behind-the-scenes' action. The dancers rehearse a work under the guidance of their teacher, to the accompaniment of a pianist, and before the audience's very eyes – so that everything has a 'fly on the wall' feel.
Even Monica Mason was present at the 'Agon' Masterclass on Thursday 15 October. A hushed silence overcame the audience when she entered the studio, immediately followed by self-aware laughter. And there were more laughs to come with stager Patricia Neary's great wit, energy and humour. Who better to rehearse Balanchine's masterpiece than one of the first people to dance it? Neary has taught the piece for forty years and she recounted numerous amusing anecdotes about her experiences of working with 'M. B', as she affectionately calls Balanchine.
As you'd expect, Neary has very high expectations – and always tells it how it is. 'It's not spectacular', she says to one of the dancers about a particular step just performed. Pat, as she is known in the ballet world, consistently corrects the dancers during the class and gets them to repeat anything that is not totally right. This is the kind of perfectionism that produces the first-rate performances we see on the main stage. And dancers Yuhui Choe, Melissa Hamilton, Johannes Stepanek, Brian Maloney and Eric Underwood don't seem to mind. In fact, they seem to have great admiration for her. Pat's passion and enthusiasm for her work is infectious – and this extends beyond the dancers. When Johannes Stepanek gets a step right after Pat's corrections, there were shouts of 'yeah's from the audience and lots of clapping.

Kendall Williams started playing football in New Orleans.
He ran around middle school defenses in Atlanta.
He was the star of his high school team in Little Rock, Arkansas.
And he started questioning his desire to play the game in a town most need a map to identify — Russellville, Arkansas.
"Honestly, I thought I was done," Williams said. "I didn't think I was going to continue playing football."
Instead, the class of 2015 running back committed to Rich Rodriguez and Arizona on Monday afternoon. Williams will have two seasons of eligibility remaining and will arrive in January 2015.
"It's been a journey," Williams said.
Born in New Orleans, Williams moved to Atlanta in sixth grade when Hurricane Katrina forced him out of Louisiana. The running back then relocated to Arkansas prior to ninth grade and attended North Little Rock High.
He put together a stellar high school career, but didn't have any Division I offers.
Williams signed with Arkansas Tech in Russellville, but left the school after one semester and exited the football program before that.
"That just wasn't the right situation," Williams said.
His plan was to move back to Little Rock and move on from the sport.
But a trainer with Arkansas Tech knew of an assistant coach at Butte Community College in California and passed on Williams' information to him. Shortly after, Williams found himself in Oroville, California, enrolled at Butte in time for the 2013 season.
He ran for 1,156 yards and nine touchdowns and helped lead the Roadrunners to a 12-0 season.
The running back, ranked as a three-star prospect by the Scout.com recruiting service, started getting interest from Arizona, Iowa State, Illinois, Tennessee and a few other schools after the season, but only one — Georgia State — offered a scholarship.
Williams then visited Tucson this past weekend and participated in Rodriguez's one-day prospect camp Saturday. After a strong showing, Rodriguez offered Williams a scholarship Monday over the phone.
After a quick call to his crying mom, Williams called the UA coach back and committed to the Wildcats.
He instantly thought of Russellville.
"All that stuff just relayed in my mind," Williams said. "My mom was on the other end of the phone crying because she knows my situation. I'm just soaking it all up and thanking God, really."
Williams spent three days in Tucson and said he should get back for a game this season. He was hoping Arizona would offer him a scholarship after he left and he got his wish later in the day.
"It was an amazing visit," Williams said. "I fell in love with the stadium, the facilities, the coaching staff, everything. I put up some great numbers when I was there and had a great visit."
Williams is the ninth commitment of the 2015 class for Arizona and the second running back to pledge. Dami Ayoola, who began his career at Illinois before transferring to Arizona Western, committed to the UA last month.
The Wildcats could have as many as seven running backs on scholarship when Ayoola and Williams get here. Jared Baker, Pierre Cormier, Zach Green, Jonathan Haden and Nick Wilson should all be on the roster.

Nets, WashPost, NYT All Fail to Report Harry Reid Refused to Allow Senate Vote On Obama 'Fiscal Cliff' Plan He Cheered Last Week
Yesterday, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell offered Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) a golden opportunity to prove just how popular President Obama's plan to avert the fiscal cliff is with his member of his own party. But, true to form, Sen. Reid refused to schedule the vote. "Not a single Senate Democrat has stepped forward to support it, and if you look at it you can see why.... It increases taxes," McConnell was quoted by Ramsey Cox in a story filed the afternoon of December 5 for TheHill.com. For his part, Reid dismissed McConnell's push for a vote as a stunt, although just last week he praised the president's plan, suggesting Obama and Senate Democrats were "on the same page."
Unfortunately this development failed to receive any mention on the evening newscasts for ABC, CBS, or NBC, nor on the December 6 morning programs for the same networks. Likewise both the New York Times and Washington Post December 6 print editions failed to report Reid's refusal to schedule a vote.
By contrast, when the president released his "fiscal cliff" plan last Thursday via his Treasury Secretary, the following morning the Washington Post announced in a front-page article that "President Obama [has] offered Republicans a detailed plan" which (emphases mine):
calls for $1.6 trillion in new taxes, $50 billion in fresh spending on the economy and an effective end to congressional control over the size of the national debt.
The proposal, delivered to the Capitol by Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner, mirrors previous White House deficit-reduction plans and satisfies Democrats' demands that negotiations begin on terms dictated by the newly-reelected president.
The offer lacks any concessions to Republicans, most notably on the core issue of where to set tax rates for the wealthiest Americans. After two weeks of talks between the White House and aides to House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio), it seemed to take Republicans by surprise.
Democratic leaders, meanwhile, were triumphant after receiving similar briefings from Geithner and White House legislative liaison Rob Nabors. Top Democrats have for months insisted that an Obama victory would entitle them to demand far more in new taxes than Republicans have been willing to consider, to seek new measures to boost economic growth, and to avoid major cuts to entitlement programs, such as Social Security and Medicare.
"Democrats are on the same page," said Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.). "The president has made his proposal; we need a proposal from them."
Meanwhile in the November 30 edition of the New York Times, Jonathan Weisman closed his article, "G.O.P. Balks at White House Plan on Fiscal Crisis" by noting (emphasis mine):
Senate Democratic leaders left their meeting with Mr. Geithner ecstatic. If the Republicans want additional spending cuts in that down payment, the onus is on them to put them on the table, said Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic leader.
Earlier in his article, Weisman noted:
the details show how far the president is ready to push House Republicans. The upfront tax increases in the proposal go beyond what Senate Democrats were able to pass earlier this year. Tax rates would go up for higher-income earners, as in the Senate bill, but Mr. Obama wants their dividends to be taxed as ordinary income, something the Senate did not approve. He also wants the estate tax to be levied at 45 percent on inheritances over $3.5 million, a step several Democratic senators balked at. The Senate bill made no changes to the estate tax, which currently taxes inheritances over $5 million at 35 percent. On Jan. 1, the estate tax is scheduled to rise to 55 percent beginning with inheritances exceeding $1 million.
It's plainly obvious that Sen. Reid could not call a vote on the Obama/Geithner plan precisely because he would have embarrassing results to show for it. Simply put, the Obama plan is laughably unserious, as Speaker Boehner and other Republicans have insisted. Fortunately for Reid and Obama, they have a liberal media who will not turn a spotlight on the Democrats but insist on painting the gridlock in Washington as though it was solely the fault of a convenient conservative bogeyman like Grover Norquist.

Virgin Blue has been named best low-cost airline in the Australia/Pacific region at the Skytrax world airline awards.
It was the fourth time the airline has claimed the title, beating out Qantas offshoot Jetstar and Tiger, who came in second and third, respectively.
Skytrax chairman Edward Plaisted said Virgin Blue was "clearly capturing the customer's hearts in what is an extremely competitive region for low cost airlines".
Malaysian-based AirAsia took out the award as the world's best low-cost airline for the second straight year.
Among other awards in the Australia/Pacific region, Air New Zealand was named best airline, edging out Qantas and Virgin Blue's long-haul carrier V Australia.
It was Air New Zealand's second award in as many days, after claiming the best airline of the year title at the UK-based Which? Awards.
Asiana Airlines took out the top gong, named Airline of the year, followed by Singapore Airlines and Qatar Airways.
Air New Zealand was fifth.
Qantas finished seventh in the overall category, but won for best premium economy class.
The 11-year-old Skytrax awards are based on a survey of 17.9 million air travellers taken between July 2009 and April 2010.
They were handed out in Hamburg
Meanwhile, Queensland Airports Ltd said passenger traffic at its three airports - Gold Coast, Townsville and Mount Isa - recorded a 10.3 per cent increase in passenger traffic in April, compared with the same time a year ago.

Every year, the Missouri Valley Conference recognizes individuals in each sport for their accomplishments in the classroom. Fourteen women's soccer players were recognized today on behalf of the conference offices. These athletes posted a collective GPA of 3.89. Molly Brewer of Missouri State, Anna Stinson of Illinois State, Stephanie Thompson of Evansville, and Emma Winstead of Drake have maintained flawless 4.00 GPAs.
A total of 36 student-athletes were nominated for the Valley's scholar-athlete team. The criteria for the honor parallels the CoSIDA standards for Academic All-America voting. Nominees must be starters or important reserves with at least a 3.20 cumulative gpa (on a 4.00 scale). Also, students must have participated in at least 75 percent of the regular-season matches or the MVC Championship. Student-athletes must have reached sophomore athletic and academic standing at their institution (true freshmen and redshirt freshmen were not eligible) and must have completed at least one full academic year at their institution.

The government of Turkey is doing everything in its power to increase the popularity of Kurdish militants when by simply adhering to the principles of a free election it would wipe out the power of the terrorist Kurdistan Workers' Party(PKK). Most people in Kurdistan wish to avoid violence and become part of the political process so what does the government of Turkey do?– It bans 12 Kurds who are running for public office from being viable candidates! The International Terrorism and Transnational Crime Research Center's Director, Suleyman Ozeren believes the end result is to open the door for the PKK to initiate actions of terrorism. "The PKK was already preparing for increased tension. And the decision to bar independent candidates served its purpose." He expects voters will be upset, they will be more receptive to ideas from the PKK and moderates are left being powerless.
The future is clear. The PKK will be conducting protests. At some point in a protest, someone will get shot by nervous security forces, which will result in more demonstrations, more deaths and more violence. What exactly is the plan of the ruling Justice and Development Party which is going to win the election? Seek a 100% vote tally?

Wife to my
Mommy to the miracle of our love our sweet and
I thought that I was one of those people. However, I have been really looking at my diet lately and whenever I tweak it I DO lose. First I cut out sugar and between that and running almost daily I lost 15 lbs. I am now working on cutting back on bread because I've noticed that it's quickly become my sugar replacement. I've only cut that out for 2 days now but considering how hard it has been I think I'll see the scale budging again soon.
I also have to work out A LOT. I'm not someone who can just walk 30 minutes and expect to see weight loss. I need to run 5 miles or always increase my weights for exercise videos etc. I really have to push myself to see results. It sucks because I know others just shrink immediately nursing or even incorporating light exercise but I'm definitely not that time of person. On the other hand, I'm working on establishing good habits for the future and on being a good example for DD.

Surprise! Sketches. Lots of pencil and no real explanations as to why both ladies have their heads tilted at similar angles. I guess the left one stemmed from having Rocky Horror Picture Show on the brain because I'm playing Magenta in an upcoming shadow cast production. It's going to be interesting, since I'm the type that wears knee-high socks under pants for maximum protection against ankle exposure. And the lady on the right has an eyepatch because I gave up on fixing her eyeshadow on that side. I grant you full permission to create an infinitely cooler background story; it won't be difficult.
And this was for a myth re-telling assignment. I originally wanted to do a cyborg version of the Hermaphroditus myth (cyborg in lieu of a nymph, obviously), but the professor told me to go with my other sketch, which depicted a massive minotaur and Theseus as a super-surly matador. So this Hermaphroditus sketch probably won't become any more realized, unfortunately. Fingers crossed the Theseus illustration won't be too horrible to share online. I should note that I'm currently coloring it and Theseus has magenta tights. Gather your own conclusions.
By the way, did you know I'm on Twitter? 'Cause I am (@anniew).

I love the sp-101i got,but the wife claimed it as hers. Time to buy another one. Lol
Side Guard Holsters - IWB Holsters - Quick Clip
Gotta get off my seat and take some pics and do a review.
My last SP-101.
Shot well but I went in favor of the lighter LCR.
That's my brother's Ruger .45 there.
Both my SPs and the Speed Six handled Magnums well, but
I still think the LCR is the Zenith in small revolvers.
Now THAT'S an SP101!
At this point in my life I am better able to handle revolvers than semiautomatic pistols. I chose Ruger revolvers for recreational shooting as well as for protection while open-carry walking in the desert and concealed during city activity.
Besides being sturdy, reliable and easy to carry concealed, I have found that I am more accurate up to 15 yards with my 2.25 SP101 than I have ever been with any other short barrel handgun. This is a pleasant surprise when my reason for purchasing this revolver was for short distance personal protection.
The SP101 is one tremendous revolver!
I hope to join the SP101club soon, but with the SP101 .22. Ever since I shot my dads .22 single action I've wanted a .22 revolver, and double action on a rock solid frame makes it even more attractive.
Here's what I want

Great looking guns you got there Aimtrue.
Oh yeah. Awesome!
aimtrue very nice collection of revolvers! Like the grips too
Thank you for the kind words.
The grips are Hogue Camo Lamo Monogrips. They are comfortable and fit well in my hands.
The heft and balance of the Ruger GP100's and the SP101 along with the tactile feel of the Hogue monogrips buffer quite well the sharp recoil of .357 magnum rounds.
I just finished reworking this one in stainless steel...

Rounded/polished the trigger, added a Fiber Optic front sight and refinished it in Soft Satin.
Happened to be in the right place at the right time a few months ago and snagged this full house Weigand Combat SP101 Conversion at an unbelievable price. I've wanted this one since the 90's. I added the laser grips after purchase.
This may be sacrilege, but here's my SP101 in 22LR. She's a little dirty after about 200 rounds through her during my trip to the range on Wednesday.

Like I said, they'll go out over the next couple of hours. I'll keep an eye on them and make sure they're ok.
Hi all,
We processed all the payments today, and it looks like everything went smoothly.

Hi folks.
Yep, this may well be related to our upgrade. We'll have a look at it shortly.
Thanks for letting us know!
Yep. We'd just spotted that one ourselves. We're looking into it.

I HATE to bring this up, but…
I've just been logged out, and had to re log in, and then asked to change my password.
How exactly does it know that my password is weak? Is this based on time since it was last updated, or by actual strength of the password. If it's by the strength of the password, how can it know it's weak without 2 way encryption or storing of plain text passwords?
That's exactly what it does. We store passwords hashed, so we can't decrypt them.

Seriously, that's a lot of shaved heads in a small group
Yeah, we base our hiring decisions primarily on height and baldness.
Hi MicrostockMan,
Currently 3docean is running on the new search engine, and we're starting to work our way through the other sites.
I haven't got an ETA for when it'll all be done. Not surprisingly, we have a lot of competing priorities! We are working on it though.

Hounds back in the win column
Ian Mann turned in a monster day running behind a revitalized offensive line, and Gaston steamrolled Neah-Kah-Nie 44-8 last Friday to snap a three-game losing streak and get back into state playoff contention.
The Greyhounds improved to 3-3 overall and 1-1 in Northwest League play with three games left one more win clinches a playoff berth, while sweeping all three could get the Hounds a home game in the first round of the postseason.
Fridays victory was largely attributable to the stellar play of the offensive line, which dominated the Pirates and cleared out lots of running room for Mann, who finished with 269 yards and four touchdowns.
We played pretty well, Gaston head coach Reeve Woodward said. Our offensive line was amazing. We ran basically the same play over and over and over and they couldnt stop it.
Mann was already on his way to a big day in the third quarter when he broke a 60-yard touchdown run.
He just kept his feet moving and then all of a sudden he came out of the pile and broke it for 60, Woodward said. It was an amazing run.
Austin Morey rushed for 141 yards, and he also tossed a highlight-reel 30-yard touchdown pass to Alex Sweet, who caught the ball with one hand while falling backward into the end zone. Nate Lewis added a 45-yard scoring pass to Sweet later in the game.
The win snapped a three-game losing streak in which the Greyhounds were shut out twice.
The competition weve been playing the last five weeks has been pretty high, Woodward said. Its been a long time since weve lost, so losing three in a row was tough for them. It was getting kind of frustrating, so this was a good win. The kids were really excited afterward.
Gaston returns to action this Friday with a home game against Nestucca.
Registration for FG Junior Viks
The Forest Grove Junior Viks wrestling program will be holding sign-ups from 6-7 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 7, at the Forest Grove High School wrestling gym.
Registration forms and other info can be picked up in advance at Fryes Action Athletics. Practices will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-7 p.m., with an intense practice session available until 7:30. Matches will be held on Saturdays and some weeknights. Uniforms will be provided, but athletes will need to provide their own wrestling shoes.
As part of the Junior Viks wrestling program, beginning wrestlers will be exposed to a series of fun yet challenging games, drills, and exercises that will help them master the elements of balance, rhythm, spatial orientation, and the ability to react to both auditory and visual stimuli. Youth wrestling also helps equip kids with a healthy dose of competitive spirit and self-discipline. Because they are grouped by size and ability, all of the kids will be challenged within reason.

McGee Feels Rays Ready To Win Now
by Steve Carney / 620 WDAE
Follow @stevecarney
The Tampa Bay Rays are thought of as a team that tends to count every penny each offseason, However, Andrew Friedman and the Baseball Operation department have opened the wallet and inked a number of free agents for 2014, including first baseman James Loney and reliever Grant Balfour, as well as signing left-hander David Price to a one-year, $14 million deal.
"Anytime they spend money, and when they spend that much money, it's kind of surprising because we're considered a smaller market," McGee told WDAE's Tom Krasniqi Friday afternoon. "At the same time, it shows we're ready to win now."
The Tampa Bay payroll is expected to exceed $80 million this season.
McGee also discussed the importance of bringing back Loney on a three-year deal, whether anyone has a better starting rotation than Tampa Bay, and not caring what teams like the Yankees and Red Sox are doing in their offseasons.

Hello & Welcome to ItsMuchMore
The story of ItsMuchMore:
Founded in 2013 by the creators UKRockers who were once a successful gaming clan & community.
UKRockers were regularly seen competing in online gaming ladders and tournaments such as Gamebattles, EnemyDown, Clanbase to name a few. UKRockers were the online clan to take part in clan matches on every single gaming console/system such as Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, Xbox, NGage, GameCube, PC the list goes on, but the founders decided to call it a day after 11 long years, such a great community was built gaining many great friendships along the way, many of them are still active today and fly the flag of UKRockers "UKR".
Both myself (@Jarvis1983uk) and Daniel (@RockerJarvis) decided that playing competitive gaming just didn't seem to rock our boats anymore, for the simple fact that the vast amount of clans back then didn't show up for online clan matches and lead them to be cancelled and hours/days wasted training for the match and with heavy server and website costs meant UKRockers couldn't keep up with the ever-changing environment, as our members got older, people's personal life's took priority which lead to the downfall of UKRockers.
As mentioned above many online matches were forced to cancel, as our very own members didn't want to waste their time waiting around for a match to happen and for no one to show up and get a auto win, was just pointless.
To make matters worse for UKRockers our website became inactive with an empty forum room and members leaving to do other things this all took its toll and lead to the doors closing for UKRockers.
There were some great highlights for UKRockers which included being invited to Retrovision 5 lead in Frome, Somerset UK where we hooked up a number consoles for the public to come along and play via LAN (Sega Dreamcast / Sony Playstation 2 / Microsoft Xbox), also being invited to help with the very first GameCity Festival in Nottingham, like Retrovision 5 we had consoles and games on display for the general public to play free of charge (Microsoft Xbox , Sega Dreamcast , Nintendo Gamecube , Sony Playstation 2 , Microsoft Xbox 360 , Sony PSP).
UKRockers will live on in the hearts of the people who was part of the journey from the early days of Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 and GameCube to Xbox online gaming to the final days on PC and Xbox 360.
It wasn't just gaming for UKRockers, a number of different avenues were attempted such as online radio, using Metal-Lynx and Radio-N forming UKR Radio, which at the time was very enjoyable, also creating videos on which were later uploaded to YouTube.
Hosting and supporting a number of different tournaments for websites such as GameScrubs and hosting the first ever online Mario Kart Double Dash tournament on Warp-Pipe which Nintendo themselves gave us prizes to give out to the winners and players taking part.
Over the years UKRockers found that people used UKRockers as somewhat of a stepping stone to further develop their gaming careers, this lead to a number of successful teams/clans and players being formed off the back of UKRockers, UKRockers were glad that they paved the way for those people and myseld and founders of UKRockers wish you all the best of luck and hope that if our paths meet again we can look back on the times we were together.

- Appeared in the 360 Gamer Magazine Issue 73

It wasn't an easy leap from clan & community to a blog/review website, we had to build trust and relationships with developers, PR, publishers and organisations to enable us to create ItsMuchMore and to do something that we can see us doing for years to come and that's reviewing games / writing news and being part of events and expos.
In our eyes gaming was just the start, after building those contacts within the gaming world opened the doors to opportunities such as Theatre / Movies and local/national events giving us press access to those. This to lead to more possibilities which is the real reason for our name ItsMuchMore because we simply was much more than gaming.
We've worked a number of different companies over the years that include Ubisoft , Deep Silver , Sega , Nintendo , PR Outreach , EA , Reef Entertainment , Warner Bros Games all of which have given us their latest game releases for us to feature and review as part of ItsMuchMore.
ItsMuchMore have previously worked with companies such as OnLive, THQ and Capcom, and also took part in a number of local events in ItsMuchMore's home town of Nottingham such as Nerd Fest and GameCity as well as attending the Expos EuroGamer Expo (EGX) Rezzed , PlayExpo each year as part of press.
This is what myself and the remaining UKRockers members enjoy doing as part of ItsMuchMore, now that we don't play online games as a team or clan, its great that something we've enjoyed doing for a number of years writing and talking about games has allowed us to test some of the latest Gadgets , attend gigs and Musicals just to name a few so we are busy all the time improving and updating our website.
We have had no funding throughout the time of UKRockers and ItsMuchMore and have never been sponsored in any way shape or form, we work through the website in our own time and all work full-time so all the money we earn goes into the website / servers / giveaways and just the general up keep, yes we get sent the games and tickets for free but everything else to keep the website a float is paid by us, we hope to continue to write reviews and support this website/blog for many years to come.

To mark George Bush's Guevara-esque declaration that the US expected nothing but complete victory in Iraq, the blog Wonkette has created a new subsection: backwards engineering foreign policy. The first entry uses pictures to illustrate the rather unusual manner in which the White House Iraq strategy has evolved. These are, after all, photo opportunities that have included the "Plan for Victory" backdrop to yesterday's speech and the "Mission Accomplished" of more than two years earlier.
The liberal side of the comment spectrum is, as you might have guessed, not so sure of the strategy. Fred Kaplan of Slate applauds the spelling out of specific stages of success where once there were ideals ("spreading freedom" is his example) but wonders if it has not all come a bit too late.
It is symptomatic of everything that's gone wrong with this war that, after two and a half years of fighting it (and four years after starting to plan it), the White House is just now getting around to articulating a strategy for winning it.
To put this in perspective: from December 1941 to August 1945, the US government mobilised an entire nation [...] and emerged from battle poised to shape the destiny of half the globe. By comparison, from September 2001 to December 2005, the US government has advanced to the point of describing a path to victory in a country the size of California.
From Britain, the Financial Times reports on changing military tactics in Iraq. The whack-a-mole missions where insurgents are pursued from hotspot to hotspot is being replaced by a hold and build strategy to secure urban centres and gradually expand their influence. Planners call it the "oil spot", though this was not a phrase the president used when he gave his speech to naval cadets in Maryland.
The New York Times is scathing of the suggestion that Mr Bush's big picture represents anything new. Its editorial, rather dismissively, headlines the plan "We Win" and says that what "Americans wanted to hear was a genuine counterinsurgency plan". It adds: "Americans have been clamouring for believable goals in Iraq, but Mr Bush stuck to his notion of staying until total victory." In the cruellest dig, eagerly picked up by Daily Kos, it compares Mr Bush's ideas about the Iraqi army to Richard Nixon's Vietnamisation.
Substitute the Iraqi constitutional process for the Paris peace talks, and Mr Bush's ideas about the Iraqi army are not much different from Nixon's plans - except Nixon admitted the war was going very badly (which was easier for him to do because he didn't start it), and he was very clear about the risks and huge sacrifices ahead.
A president who seems less in touch with reality than Richard Nixon needs to get out more.
Luckily for Mr Bush, others are more supportive. The ever dependable PowerLine blog describes the Maryland address as "thematically similar to a number of other excellent speeches he has given over the past four years" and argues that Mr Bush has "articulated his policy vision more consistently and more eloquently than any president since Lincoln". That is not too far from the New York Times' calling it a "rehash of the same tired argument that everything's going just fine", though clearly imbued with different sentiments. If you ever wanted to see how two people could have two completely different takes on the same event, here is your chance.

sync is a great option if you want those stock features and don't plan on changing to an aftermarket headunit. module are available to retain sync, but that's another added cost. personally i would rather get something without it and go aftermarket with those options (bt, usb, . . .) and have better audio performance.
the new focus has a good amount of power and great gas mileage, but is heavy and could use more power to really be fun. however that almost 10k difference between the se and st make a big difference and is deef worth wighing the choices.
the new nav systems are great, but again i would rather have an aftermarket system and save the money on the car payment.
My question for you is this. If you are wanting a bigger car to start a family then does a mustang really fit those needs? the mustang doesn't have much backseat room and will make that difficult with that space and only two doors. I have a 09 coupe and have enough trouble with carseats in that. putting those in doesn't always leave room to put the front seats in a comfortable position, especially for long drives. the mustang also is only 4 passenger, meaning there is not center seat in the back and will require putting the car seat on the side leaving even less room for the front seats to go back.
in regards to the fusion; you can get a 5 speed if you're ok with doing a 4 cyl instead of the v6. they are harder to find, but they are out there. can always add a turbo to get more power if you want it and some suspension upgrades.

Psychic View: Success
By Marjorie Young
When I was no older than eight or nine, I distinctly remember my father alluding to one of our relatives. "He must be worth (x amount) per year." Somehow, even at that tender age, I was disturbed by his choice of words. Why would someone's 'worth' be equated by the money they possessed? I recall objecting to my father, who explained it was not meant in the way I'd taken it. But I was not convinced, nor am I to this day.
It is an common occurrence now, so many years later, to hear that same term applied. Bill Gates is 'worth' many billions. A politician or a celebrity will be described with a similar 'price tag.' Nor is this a uniquely modern concept. One of my favorite novels is Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," which was published exactly two hundred years ago. In that dazzling work, the income (or prospective income) of almost every major character is revealed the moment that personage makes an appearance. Therefore, we all know the hero, 'Mr. Darcy,' is 'worth' ten thousand pounds a year, while his friend, 'Mr. Bingley' is 'worth' only half that amount (though still to be considered very wealthy indeed).
Now, I personally have no objection to prosperity, and if one is fortunate enough to achieve it, please enjoy it. However, it should not be the measure of self-worth, or the method by which we assess one another. As we know all too well from recent headlines, one can lose everything with a stock-market plunge or a twist of fate. As long as we refrain from concluding that what we possess, or even achieve, is the true evaluation of our essence, we can develop a more accurate sense of ourselves.
The brilliant swimmer Michael Phelps accomplished the near-impossible at the Beijing Olympics…eight gold medals! Yet, as Phelps himself confessed, he later went into a deep depression, unable to savor his triumph. This state lasted several years, until he finally moved forward with the decision to swim again in London, where he became the most decorated Olympian of all time. Of course, there remains the question: 'now what?!" Hopefully, he'll discover myriad opportunities and talents outside the pool, and life will continue to unfold in an adventurous, gratifying fashion.
In truth, we must ever look to our core selves, our core values. Love, compassion, positive intentions, dedication, an eagerness to make a difference in our own lives and the lives of others…to contribute something to our existence…is what truly gives us merit. We all know of over-achievers in many fields who end up on a dark and self-destructive course. It is not their success that dooms them. Instead what is lacking is a powerful inner sense of self - to secure an anchor that will keep us steadfast no matter what storms arise to drive us off course. It is in living a life replete with direction, meaning, and inspiration, that our 'worth' will be revealed.
I look forward to your comments and questions. Please email me at: email@example.com

The Suwannee River Fair will be held in March, but you can expect it to have fewer animals for sale and a lingering question of whether buyers will be out bidding for those animals.
Brad Etheridge, vice president of the Fair, told the Chiefland Rotary Club in its Feb. 11 meeting that fewer animals are being entered in the Fair than in 2008 when 460 animals sold by children from Dixie, Gilchrist and Levy counties brought in $723,070.

Pictured below is an unlucky WBBM news reporter. Hopefully by now she's indoors defrosting As of 11 p.m. last night poor woman was still out there in the wind, on television in Northern Indiana, braving the snow. Watching her talk from the eye of a blizzard hurt. You just wanted to shout,
Get inside already! What a crazy job!
A person like me wants to Tweet on a day like this,
It's DEEP! Don't expect to go anywhere!But you know that's ridiculous, tweeting the obvious. All over the country people have been talking about the snow, the weather, and there's absolutely nothing new about it, except that this storm is said to be the greatest in 44 years.
What makes a storm great?
Even more than the snow, it's the wind. The wind is fierce, and the snow is wet, and you put them together and you get a cold wet blast in the face, unless you don't care about how you look and have covered every inch of your body. Nobody cares how they look in a blizzard. Actually, there have to be exceptions to that.
All I could think about, well not the only thing, but while urban cross-country skiing home from work yesterday the movie, A Mighty Wind, came into my head. That's worth seeing again, maybe tomorrow. Nobody is moving, no one will want to see me in the office, and they can't, because I won't be there. Travel won't be possible. All the schools will be closed.
People gave me funny looks carrying my skis on the bus heading off to work but look who's laughing now. It's easier to walk in these.
Not that forty to sixty mile per hour winds, especially on skis, aren't humbling. You can't ski into that north wind. I could go on and on, tell you the story of how I really didn't ski home, rather took the bus to a stop five blocks from my house and skied home from there, which felt great, mainly because the neighborhood houses blocked the wind. And I could tell you that my mother called me seventy times.
I worried too, last night, having friends in high-rises, tweeting that their buildings were swaying. And the roof of Wrigley Field is in pieces all over the city, thousands have no electricity.
Being self-centered, like everyone else, what worried me most yesterday was that my son drove to school to the south side (we're north), thinking he would get out before the storm. Before I left the office, as I tightened my ski boots, I texted him, hoping he had made it home.
You home?The dismay, or is that despair in the text, palpable.
Still in traffic.
Not wanting to distract him, I do the maternal thing, text back short,
Be careful.
He texts me back,
K.This is not reassuring. When I reach my door step he is not home. I grab a shovel and hope for the best, and within 15 minutes he pulls up in his car.
The people of my tribe have a prayer that we're supposed to say when we've been saved from a very dangerous possibility. It's called, benching gomel (both spelled like you would think, benching, go- Mel!). First words out of his mouth, "I should bench gomel. That was terrible. The winds from the lake! I forgot about the winds from the lake! You need four-wheel drive!"
Not happening on a 2001 Altima. He helps me shovel and we go inside to hear that Lake Shore Drive is now closed. People are running out of gas, nobody is moving. A spun out bus has blocked three lanes.
This makes for a storm that's mighty.
Luckily, I had shopped in the morning so we would have something to eat for dinner. Target had food yesterday, but not that much, because people prepared ahead of time. Aside from Mubarak and Egypt, preparing for the storm has been the news story for four days straight. My plan last night, once everyone was accounted for, was to stay in, cook, and watch other people cope, worry that we would lose electricity.
Then kaboom! Snow lightening. Something new to worry about. You haven't lived until you've seen the white night light up with lightening.
You do begin to think catastrophic thoughts.
But basically, you can't wait to just read real books, and later, go out and play. One of my friends just offered me hot chocolate if I happened to be zipping around near her house. This sounds like an offer that can't be refused.

fixing contours
I have deleted parts of contour lines that are outside a particular domain.
The problem is, since some of the lines begin and end inside the
allowed domain, I end up with orange slice shapes as seen in the top
two contours of the picture.
What is the best way to detect this and reorder the points in the line
directives so that they only follow the real contours?
The main reason I am not just coloring over the contour lines is that
David Park's label drawing function will only put labels in the
correct spot if the labeled Lines contain only the segments that will
be visible. If I don't delete the parts that would be covered up, the
line labels will print in the invalid domain.
