Dark forces combined to bring her under the sway of the zerg Overmind, but the same courage and tenacity that she had shown as a ghost, and later as a rebel against the Confederacy, brought about her dominance of the alien sentient. Now she holds the reins of the Swarm and commands an innumerable army of monstrous creatures poised to sweep mankind from the Koprulu sector.
Sarah Louise Kerrigan discovered the strength of her latent psionic gift as a young girl. An innocent flash of childish anger at her parents resulted in massive cerebral hemorrhaging and a horrific death for her mother. Her father would only repeat one thing over and over again in the ensuing years: "I saw her head come apart." This gruesome event alerted the Terran Confederacy to her powers, and she quickly became the focus of the fledgling ghost program. Because she had reached unheard-of scores on psi-evaluation tests, her abilities elicited a complete readjustment of the scoring system so that she could be properly measured. The remnants of her humanity were stripped from her, and Kerrigan was designated Ghost Number 24601.
Following her emergence from the ghost program, she became an unstoppable assassin for the corrupt Confederate government. It was her assassination of the independent senator Angus Mengsk that brought her to the attention of his ambitious son, Arcturus. At first wishing to extract revenge from Kerrigan for his father's murder, Arcturus soon realized that she was much more useful as a weapon against the Confederacy. After rescuing her from a clandestine experimental facility, he removed her neural inhibitor and used her restored memories to build righteous anger against the government that had abused her. Kerrigan and Mengsk became allies.
She was running a mission on Antiga Prime when she first came across one-time Confederate marshal Jim Raynor, a new recruit to the Sons of Korhal. He disapproved of her lethal dealings with the Confederacy, but the conflict between the two soon grew into mutual respect, admiration, and even… something more. Kerrigan and Raynor ran several secret missions together before Mengsk's revolutionary movement brought them to Tarsonis. Even Kerrigan's jaded sensibilities were shocked when she learned what Arcturus had planned for the Confederate capital world: the placement of psi emitters to lure the zerg to one of the most densely populated planets in the sector. It would result in the death of almost every living thing on Tarsonis. Voicing her opposition, she nonetheless set about loyally fulfilling her mission to protect the hive clusters from a mysterious new alien enemy, the protoss. Mengsk would take advantage of that loyalty, abandoning her to die on Tarsonis when the mission was complete. He couldn't run the risk of having a powerful weapon like Kerrigan running loose in the shadow of his new government, and he couldn't resist the chance to claim some vengeance long overdue. This betrayal enraged Raynor; he left the revolution, swearing revenge.
Kerrigan was captured by the zerg, and the Overmind—a sentient being who controlled them—saw the destiny of its race intertwined with her potential. She was assimilated into the Swarm; her will left intact. No longer an assassin, nor even human, she became the Queen of Blades.
Soon after her ascension, the death of the Overmind left a power vacuum in the Swarm. The ensuing Brood War saw Kerrigan defeating foe after foe, and she even turned on old allies like Jim Raynor. When the conflict ended, she was in full control of the zerg.
Or so she believed, for a dark influence, with twisted plans for the zerg and the galaxy, crept into her thoughts, exerting its will through her zerg mutagens—Kerrigan could not resist. She quietly prepared the Swarm until the Dark Voice commanded her to claim a powerful xel'naga artifact. She obeyed.
But Jim Raynor was a step ahead of her. Kerrigan's old friend and his Raiders assembled the artifact and used it in an attempt to save her—stripping the Queen of the zerg mutagens and the Dark Voice. Raynor had put aside his anger in the hopes of saving the woman he had once known.
For a time, Kerrigan didn't believe she was worth saving. Guilt over her actions haunted her, but that guilt turned to anger when Arcturus Mengsk launched an attack that led to Jim Raynor's capture… and apparent execution. Enraged, Kerrigan sought to bring Mengsk down for good. She needed allies; few terrans would help her.
Thus she turned to the zerg. Brood by brood she reassembled her old Swarm, and became the Queen of Blades once again. She hoped that the Dark Voice would find no grip on her mind.
While Kerrigan dismantled Mengsk's armies and laid siege to critical facilities, she made a startling discovery: Jim Raynor was alive. Unfortunately, Raynor was furious to discover Kerrigan's choice, but eventually agreed to help her.
The reunited Swarm and its human allies toppled Mengsk's elite troops, and cornered him in his palace. The emperor's final act—trying to kill Kerrigan with the xel'naga artifact—failed thanks to Raynor's intervention. Kerrigan finally exacted her revenge, killing Arcturus Mengsk.
Now Kerrigan prepares for what lies ahead. Though one enemy is dead, another remains: the Dark Voice that once controlled her. This is the one true threat left in the galaxy.
And it is her next target.

Jen - posted on 03/29/2009 ( 1 mom has responded )
Hi SC Circle of Moms!! My name is Jen and I am a Kansas Circle of Moms member. I have two kids - Mandy in 3rd grade and Zach in 1st grade. Zach's teacher just gave us a project that I was hoping maybe one of you could help me with. I promise that it isn't anything big or time consuming.
So, here is the project: The kids are getting ready to study the United States. They are going to put a huge US map on the classroom wall and then ask all their friends and family who live (or visit) other places in the next couple of weeks to send in "picture postcards" of the area where they live. What they are going to do, is mark the area that the postcard came from on the huge map, and then hang the pictures on the wall (so the picture side of the postcard should show something from the area).
The only thing tha you have to write on the postcard is the students name (Zachary Dulny) and one or two sentences about whatever the picture is showing. The teachers said, "This provides students the opportunity to learn about the weather, geography, or important sites in the region." To be honest, it actually does sound like fun, and I can imagine how excited the kids would get each time another postcard came in from THEIR people.
Needless to say, we don't have a great deal of friends OR family from anywhere outside the Kansas/Missouri area. So, my initial thought when we got this request was, WHAT??? But then I thought, "Just take a chance and look on Facebook for some ideas" I was a bit wary doing that, but I thought Circle of Moms was probably safe since we are all moms. (The worst thing that can happen is that all the moms I ask are too busy they are too busy and say no.) So, I was hoping that maybe you could help me out and it wouldn't be too much of any inconvenience. All I need is just one. And, you wouldn't have to put your full name on it, if you are concerned about privacy, you could just put, "From, Kathy H" or something like that. I know it is a weird request, but where else is a Kansas mom going to find folks in all the states that are NOT in the middle of the country? LOL.
I've got your back, though, and if you need anything similar, I would definitely be willing to do the same for you.
All the postcards need to be sent directly to the school - not to our house. Just be sure to put Zach's name somewhere in the body of the "letter". The address is:
Mrs. Riesberg's First Grade Class
Mill Creek Elementary
13951 W 79th St.
Lenexa, KS 66215
The project Time Frame is 3/12 to 4/30. So, it isn't a huge rush, but if you are like me, sometimes it is better to get it over with.
If you none of you can do this, I understand. Just let me know if you think you can so I can mark another state off our calendar. If you DO get a chance to do it, THANKS, THANKS, THANKS in advance.
I think you can just message back to me and let me know what you think. :-)

A stray bullet that killed a 5-year-old girl Wednesday as she ate breakfast in her Omaha home may have come from as far as a block away, authorities said as they pleaded for suspects to step forward.
Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer said at a press conference Wednesday night that Payton Benson did not appear to be the intended target of the bullet, which authorities believe came from a morning shooting at least a block away. It involved several individuals and included the use of multiple weapons.
Payton was with her mother when the bullet ripped through her north Omaha home. She was later pronounced dead at a hospital.
No one has been arrested in the case, which is being treated as a criminal homicide. The shooting took place in an area that has had reports of gang and gun violence.
"I want to take a moment to talk to the assailants in this case who were involved in the gunfire that struck and killed Payton Benson," Schmaderer said at the press conference. "You know who you are and law enforcement will find out who you are. It may not have been your bullet that struck this little girl. So do the right thing and do yourself a favor in the process. Come down and talk to law enforcement and tell us what you know."
Mayor Jean Stothert expressed her condolences to Payton's parents as well as Ben Gray, a member of the City Council who is related to the family.
"In our city, every life matters," she said. "And every violent death is unacceptable. When a child becomes a victim of such an unthinkable act, we must all stand together to support the family, and then we must be part of the solution."
Police said they have located a dark-colored Jeep or sport utility vehicle that they believe is connected to the shooting. They released a photo of the vehicle and a photo of three male suspects near the car. The public is encouraged to help identify the suspects.
Omaha City Councilman Ben Gray said the girl's father is his nephew.
Councilman Pete Festersen said he and Gray had been at the opening of a new business shortly before hearing about of the shooting.
"A day of extreme highs and extreme lows," he told the Omaha World-Herald. "We celebrated 300 new jobs for north Omaha and a couple of hours later, we had this tragedy."
Authorities are offering a $5,000 reward for information that will lead to an arrest.

My younger son was looking for a quick, inexpensive costume to attend a Halloween party. An Internet search provided the answer: Mark Zuckerberg wearing a bath robe, T-shirt, long pajama pants and slides, a look he had been known to sport. We had all those clothing items, so he was all set.
My younger son was looking for a quick, inexpensive costume to attend a Halloween party. An Internet search provided the answer: Mark Zuckerberg wearing a bath robe, T-shirt, long pajama pants and slides, a look he had been known to sport. We had all those clothing items, so he was all set.
He did worry that others might not know who he was. I'll admit I wouldn't have known if I hadn't seen a picture of Zuckerberg wearing that attire. But I always admire clever, inexpensive costumes, so I assured him it would be fine, and he could always tell people who he was dressed up as.
But would telling someone he was Mark Zuckerberg be greeted with blank stares? For many people, that might be the case. But as soon as he told them the company that Zuckerberg heads, acknowledgement would quickly come — since that company is Facebook.
The social networking site has become a global phenomenon since its founding at Harvard University in 2004. Often businesses will now promote their Facebook page rather than a website to share information with customers. The site boasts more than 1 billion users, according to Facebook.
The Dispatch launched a Facebook page about three years ago, initially to tie in with our online Teen page featuring articles from our high school staff. A couple of years ago we revamped the page and use a website that pulls content from the-dispatch.com and sends it to Facebook. That meant anyone who liked The Dispatch of Lexington could see the same stories that appeared on our regular website.
But that approach had its drawbacks. For one, sometimes I'd see four or five consecutive posts from The Dispatch of Lexington appear in my news feed as content was uploaded to our website. It also meant our Facebook page was not very different from the-dispatch.com. Little interaction took place between readers and our staff.
That all changed this week. I turned off the transfer of content from the-dispatch.com, and now our staff is posting directly to Facebook. These posts cover a wide range of subjects. It also allows readers to interact with us in a different way.
I posted Thursday about how a Triad radio station was already playing Christmas music and asked if readers thought it was too early. Twelve people commented, with some saying yes to my question (which would be my response) and others saying no, that they enjoyed hearing it.
Sports writer Jason Queen made a humorous post about how spellcheck on smartphones isn't always too bright. Every time he typed the word crud (which unfortunately he and many others have right now) his phone changed it to crude. Chief photographer Donnie Roberts posted "a rant" in his words about complaints directed at businesses that open on Thanksgiving. Consumers ultimately are to blame, he said, and 42 people liked his post that generated seven comments.
Other staff members are linking to stories that have appeared on the-dispatch.com or previewing ones to come. Some promote upcoming community events. And we've also asked for readers to help with stories; reporter Darrick Ignasiak heard from several folks as he prepared an article looking back at the deadly tornado from a year ago.
The 11 members of The Dispatch newsroom will post on our Facebook page. The posts will begin with an indication about who is making the post, since all will originate from The Dispatch of Lexington. I've been extremely pleased with the first two weeks of our new approach to the social networking site.
If you haven't liked our page or unliked it after checking it out previously, I'd encourage you to pay a visit. I promise we won't clutter up your news feed, and I hope you find the information that appears interesting. I like how Facebook allows us another avenue to reach readers and interact with them, but we need folks to visit the page for that interaction to occur.
Not everyone participates on Facebook, of course, but it provides us another way to share information, just like the print edition, the-dispatch.com and our Twitter feed (@lexdispatch, which continues to post almost all stories from our website). Each platform offers different advantages, but to obtain the full picture I encourage people to use all.
Ultimately, our goal is to disseminate information to as many people as possible in the best method for that reader.
Chad Killebrew is executive editor of The Dispatch. He can be reached at 249-3981, ext. 215, or at email@example.com.

This is Deinonychus antirrhopus and is one of the most iconic and enduring dinosaur images of all time. It was the work of Robert T Bakker in 1969 for John Ostroms' ground breaking monograph of the same animal. Incredibly, that's forty two years ago now, but for me, this is one of the most powerful and inspiring images in the history of dinosaur palaeontology.
I was recently looking through the literature that was amassed on my bookshelves for some information on the cranial morphology of hadrosaurs – specifically Edmontosaurus. I was trying to identify a recently arrived bone labeled as "unknown dinosaurian element" which, although was clearly of an unusual form, stood out to me almost immediately as being a cranial element, specifically part of a braincase but I was unsure what species.
Since the bone came from the Hell Creek Formation in Carter County, Montana I felt sure that the element was probably from Edmontosaurus since, at this particular site, this hadrosaurs' remains are dominant. Sure enough, the first cranial diagram I arrived at confirmed my initial thoughts and it appeared to be the basisphenoid situated ventrally on the braincase, although this would need to be confirmed once the bone had been properly prepared.
Feeling rather pleased with myself, I placed the volume back on the shelf and took a step back and let my eyes peruse over the displayed books and papers. At this point I began to reminisce about how I got into palaeontology and dinosaurs in the first place. What were my influences? What books really made the difference? And what else was it that contributed to my creation as a dino-geek?
Like so many of you, it all began with childhood. As a child of the sixties, I grew up with TV science fiction and those wonderful B-movies from the fifties. I loved all of it and dinosaurs, pterosaurs and marine reptiles, in particular, were a large part of it but with one exception – they were real. These huge, stomping spectacular creatures had once existed and it fascinated me.
I started to write my own books and keep my own records. In reality, these were exercise books that I filled up with details from books borrowed from the library and I also copied diagrams from these books to produce pictures of the animals. I remember that my favourite diagrams were geological time scales – I was always doing them. I amassed over thirteen volumes doing this over the years. It was never enough though.
The books that I could get hold of at this time offered very general information but that was fine and they worked for me by providing me with a fundamental knowledge of the basics. For example, I certainly knew and understood what was saurischian and what was ornithischian and got to grips with some very basic skeletal anatomy. And then in the early seventies I got hold of Edwin H.Colbert's Men and Dinosaurs and Dinosaurs: Their Discovery and Their World. These two volumes were a revelation and hugely influential. I loved them and because of them I got hold of a copy of A.S. Romers Vertebrate Paleontology -my new bible. I was well and truly on my way.
In these days there was very little television produced with palaeontology in mind and you have to remember there were only three television channels in the UK at this time. This was about to change in the seventies. At this point I decided it was to time to write a "best of" volume of all the material I had amassed over the years and started to create my tome. I would work on this to the extent of all other things – school work came second every time. In retrospect, this was obviously a silly thing to do but such was my passion for the subject that, at that time, everything else came second.
1975 was THE watershed year. So much happened all at once that even by todays standards of instant communications and news, it was indeed a revolutionary year. Firstly, the BBC broadcast a series based solely on paleontology, the first of its kind. Before the Ark was presented by Alan Charig and brought the scientists I'd only read about until then onto the screen so that I could see them and hear them for the first time. This was the only series that treated the viewer as someone who did indeed understand some science and let the scientists explain their theories without somebody either narrating or patronizing the viewer. Even today, Before the Ark is the only serious television series about palaeontology, in my opinion, to do this.
One episode stood out – Rise of the Dinosaurs – for this was the first time I had heard of the concept of hot blooded dinosaurs and the name Robert Bakker. I was hooked and made sure that I got hold of the book that accompanied the series. Then, in the same year, another programme, Horizon, also broadcast a one hour special on the warm bloods. The opening shots set in Dinosaur Provincial Park set the tone for the programme and this was the first time I'd seen and heard Bakker. I had a new Messiah. He explained everything so simply, so clearly that I was convinced he was right. I saw dinosaurs in a complete new light and became a full dinosaur revolutionary.
As if all this wasn't enough, Adrian J. Desmond published The Hot Blooded Dinosaurs, also in 1975. Although I initially borrowed it from the library, I realized that I had it on permanent loan and decided to buy a copy. I have no idea how many times I read this book but my head was spinning and my path had been set. For the foreseeable future, dinosaurs, palaeontology and I would be sharing the same path.
Bakkers' The Dinosaur Heresies was published in 1986 followed by his disciple and champion, Greg Paul and his Predatory Dinosaurs of the World in 1988. Endothermic dinosaurs were here to stay. Although we are all aware that things are not as straightforward as they once seemed, I was lucky to be part of the dinosaur revolution and it was a great time to be there seeing it all take shape. Youngsters brought up on Jurassic Park don't have any idea just how important a time this was and how much is owed to Ostrom, Bakker, Galton and others to make the study of dinosaurs the wonderful vibrant science that it is today.
I guess that I will always have the same fascination with dinosaurs and prehistoric life as I have always had. Even writing this blog is being part of it and electronic networking has made instant communication, for me, one of the most wonderful things in modern paleontology. You can be in the middle of the nowhere, photograph a specimen in situ and that image could be seen worldwide on the same day by all of us – truly amazing.
And yet I wouldn't swap my experiences for anything. Learning by reading those early books and being part of the new order was truly a once in a lifetime experience in our continually evolving science.

Used Metal Detectors
Treasure hunting is a great hobby that can provide hours of exercise and excitement for you and your family. Many people that become involved in this pastime will upgrade their equipment several times before they finally settle on the metal detector that is perfect for their needs. This means that there is a great market for used metal detectors that allows other people to acquire this used gear at a discount.
Click Here to For the Best Value on Used All Purpose Metal Detectors
If you are just starting out with this hobby, this can be a great way to buy the best metal detector for you and save money in the process. Many times the person you are buying the equipment from can give you valuable insight on how best to use the metal detector you are purchasing from them. This is information that could have taken you months to acquire on your own and will help you start finding your treasures sooner.
Just as with anything used, you need to be sure you understand the condition and functionality of the metal detector before taking it home. One of the best places to find one of these used metal detectors is from an established metal detector dealer. They have experience with this type of equipment and can usually give you a wide selection of both new and used models that will fit your needs. Most of the used metal detectors sold by dealers have been taken in trade for newer models and have been checked thoroughly before being offered for sale. Some of these dealers will also offer a warranty on these used metal detectors to protect your investment and will also take the detector you are buying back on trade later as part of an upgrade to another unit. This can give you the security of knowing your purchase is protected and will hold its value in case you decide to buy a more sophisticated model of metal detector at a later date.
Another great place to find used metal detectors is a local treasure-hunting club. There are hundreds of these clubs nationwide and their members are always upgrading their equipment to newer models. These clubs are also a great way to try a variety of different types and brands of metal detectors before you buy one to see which model you prefer. Many times the people selling the used metal detectors will even let you try them before you buy so you can get a feel for its features. The advantage of buying from a club like this is that the members are very honest about the used metal detectors they are selling since you may be using it with them on future events the club sponsors.
One other good place to find used metal detectors is online venues like auction sites and want ads. While these are less personal than some other choices, you may find the best bargains here. The key is to know what you are looking for before you start your shopping and to also know what a good price for a particular brand of metal detector is so you know you are getting a good deal.

As part of the Swiss-supported Pilot Projects in three developing countries and one country in transition, a guidance document is being developed and will be made available for general country use in 2009. Based on the results of their National SAICM Capacity Assessments, Belarus, Pakistan, Panama, and Tanzania will choose two priority topics for partnership development as part of SAICM implementation.
In the Dubai Declaration, ICCM participants commit to engaging actively in partnerships, including strengthening the participation of small and medium-sized enterprises and the informal sector. They agree to enhance industry partnerships by inviting industry to review and strengthen current voluntary industry initiatives; to develop new initiatives, including in partnership with foundations, academia and non-governmental organizations; and to provide resources for the implementation of Strategic Approach objectives.
In the Resolution on implementation arrangements, ICCM participants specifically encouraged NGOs and the private sector to engage in partnerships with governments, intergovernmental organizations, regional economic integration organizations and other stakeholders. The Overarching Policy Strategy includes the objectives for enhancing cooperation on the sound management of chemicals between governments, the private sector and civil society at the national, regional and global levels. Related to partnerships, the promotion of industrial responsibility in included as a work area in the Global Plan of Action.

At one time, the GMC Syclone was rumored to be faster than the Viper, Corvette, and even a Ferrari. Today's Nice Price or Crack Pipe pickup is still plenty fast, but will its price make you say what the truck!?
Yesterday's Datsun 510 wouldn't beat any of those sports cars in a race, but despite that it did chalk up a 71% Nice Price win. Most of the thumbs up votes came from those who are jonesing for a dime and liked this one's condition, as well as its price. The rest came from those who just seem to get chubb'd over blue cars.
Blue was not a color made available on the GMC Syclone back when it was launched in 1991. Aspen blue was to be offered in '92, but as today's contender hails from the first - and only full - year of production, it's precluded from being anything but black.
They say that the candle which burns twice as bright burns half as long, and with only a single year of production in '91 - plus a couple of trucks spit out in '92 - the Sonoma-based GMC Syclone burned so very bright. Feeding that flame is a 4.3-litre Vortec V6. Now Vortec may sound like a villain in a tween fantasy novel that is trying to cash in on the popularity of whichever Harry Potter clone is hot at the moment, but really it's a name dreamed up by GM's marketing department. Strong work, guys. Despite the lame name game, the General pumped up the jam on this one with a Mitsubishi turbo, Garrett water/air intercooler and a 48mm TB from the 5.7 V8. All that free breathing plus the turbo's 14 PSI of boost help the pushrod engine produce a raucous 280-bhp and 350 lb-ft of torque at the crank. Mated to that pressure cooker is a 700R4 four-speed autobox that could also be found under the floorboards of the contemporary Corvette. A
Locutus of the Borg Warner transfer case sends 65% of the power out under the 6 foot bed and 35% up front, maintaining traction even when the truck's lightly loaded. Brakes were another place GMC upped the ante as the 'clone is the first non-commercial truck sold in the U.S. with four-wheel antilock. Despite that, the rears are still drums, and of course pickup truck stopping distances can be all over the map dependent on the load.
The standard cab body sits on a ladder frame, of course, and the whole thing weighs in at a not unreasonable 3,422 lbs. That's not bad, and makes each pony responsible for carting around about 12 pounds. This particular 'clone looks pretty stock, from its matte black side cladding to its Pontiac Sunbird Turbo instrument cluster. Somebody has dropped a bed liner onto it, and the seller notes a "limo tint" on the glass, as well as a pair of ECU Romulators in the glovebox, should you like messing with such things.
That shouldn't be necessary as back in the day the little GMC was known for being able to blow the doors off of most anything this side of an F18 Hornet. Of course over the years the competition has only been improving while the Syclone has remained in performance stasis. Still, the volumized Vortec does move the truck with alacrity, taking it to 60 from a standstill in a little over four and a half seconds. Its quarter mile times are equally respectable, hitting the traps in under 14 and at nearly a c-note.
That speed may have blistered off some of the paint as, like many a gen-xer, it's thinning on the top. The seller also claims a hairline crack on the dash, but doesn't remark on the rear valance that looks a little loosey goosey on the driver's side. The big deal killer for anybody looking to storm anywhere outside of a Mediterranean climate is the removal of the heater and A/C system. As the truck is in Dallas, that may be the primary reason behind the sale, and not the boast of an impending Lotus purchase.
That and 68,283 miles of '90s General Motors product wear and tear make the $12,800 asking price a point of contention. There were only about 3,000 Syclones built in '91 and '92, and they don't show up for sale with the frequency of their more-common, but slower Typhoon brethren. That being said, the HVAC extract and self described good from 15 feet condition may balance out the scarcity.
What do you think, does $12,800 for this '91 Syclone put the wind in your sails? Or, does that price make you think the seller can just blow it out his ass?
You decide!

Christian Ponder was forced to miss the Minnesota Vikings playoff game against the Green Bay Packers after suffering a bad contusion to his throwing arm in the regular season finale against Green Bay.
The injury ultimately led to a trip to emergency room for Ponder in the weeks following the season.
Ponder spoke to reporters Wednesday as the Vikings are going through their offseason workouts. He revealed that the contusion "came back" two weeks after the season and he almost ended up requiring emergency surgery on his injured arm.
"The whole arm swelled up and I actually had to go to the ER and get that taken care of," Ponder said, via Mark Craig of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. "It was a little scary with [concerns] about a blood clot. But it ended up being fine."
Ponder said the arm swelled up and got rock hard prompting a trip to emergency room. He feared a blood clot had formed in his arm and doctors at the hospital believed he could be experiencing compartment syndrome. Compartment syndrome occurs at the site of an injury. Muscles can fill with fluid greatly increasing the pressure in that part of the body. It's a very serious condition that can lead to numerous complications and the treatment can require drastic measures such as cutting the muscle open in order to relieve the pressure.
Luckily for Ponder, a call with Vikings trainer Eric Sugarman helped tap the brakes on any aggressive treatment and instead opting for an MRI to further diagnose the issue. The results confirmed that it wasn't compartment syndrome and just the return of the original contusion.
"They said it was fine. Just to ice it down or whatever and it would work itself out," Ponder said.
It's good news for Ponder and the Vikings. Compartment syndrome and the ensuing treatment necessarily could have put Ponder out of commission for a significant amount time (not to mention the serious risk to Ponder's health alone). With the contusion healed, Ponder is clear to work with his teammates throughout the offseason.
"It's good to be back and be with all the guys. Everyone is showing up and working hard," Ponder said.

Trust me, this decision wasn't easy. I've agonized over it. I've watched every weather report out there, so I've seen the cars spinning out on the ice and the trucks stranded in ditches. Ultimately, being the Northwest driver that I am, I've decided I have to cancel my appearance at tonight's event :(
I feel terrible, I really really do. I'm trying to reschedule now, and will let you know as soon as I have a date for you.
Until then, bundle up and drink lots (and lots) of hot cocoa!

It's a relief to me cause I REALLY wanted to go but I didn't want to risk it either cause it changes so much from elevations. So you never know what it could be like. Sounds like you guys already got enough to make an informed decision though. It's better safe then sorry! And whenever you do come I'll try my hardest to be there!

I hope I can get this thing rescheduled soon so I can see you guys. And thanks for being cool about it. It's bad enough that I feel guilty, I'd feel worse if you were layin' on the guilt trips ;)

I wondered if you'd make it. It was a bit dicey coming up over the pass from Seaside, but I was thankful Portland was clear.
Stay safe and enjoy the weather from your cozy house. :)

Exclusive: Inside IRON MAN's New, Alien-Inspired Armor
Ultimate Iron Man's new look.Tony Stark is a self-proclaimed "futurist," and not the kind of guy to stick with one piece of technology for too long. It's why both the classic comic book version of the character and his movie counterpart — played, as you're aware, by Robert Downey Jr. — has rotated through multiple iterations of his Iron Man armor over the years.
The Ultimate Comics take on Tony is no exception, and will be sporting a dramatic new look starting in July's Ultimate Comics Ultimates #13 — the same issue as Captain America's return following his "Death of Spider-Man" hiatus, and the first part of the "Divided We Fall" event affecting each book in the line.
Here at Newsarama, we've got both the exclusive reveal of Iron Man's new armor and the first interview with the Ultimates team of writer Sam Humphries and artist Billy Tan on the subject. Humphries and Tan talked to us via email about what inspired the alien-like appearance of the suit, what prompted the change, and what "Divided We Fall" has in store for the already beleaguered Ultimate Universe.
Newsarama: Billy, Sam, let's start with the obvious — we've seen the pictures, what can you tell us about the new armor? Is there a major storyline reason that Iron Man is going with a new armor? Or is it simply, as anyone who has ever owned an Apple product can attest and Tony Stark would surely agree with, an instance of upgrading because the technology exists do so, and why not?
Sam Humphries: The first 12 issues of Ultimate Comics: The Ultimates shows the world changing dramatically and irreversibly. Tony Stark is a man who likes to stay ahead of the curve, so if the world changes, then so must Iron Man.Plus, Tony loves his new toys. The world itself could crumble and you'd find him on an asteroid, tinkering with a new suit.
Nrama: From a behind-the-scenes perspective, what's the process in arriving at a new armor for Iron Man? How many different people have input on the design? How many different takes before this one was settled on?
Humphries: When you have Billy Tan rocking the design work, all you need is one take. Myself and the editorial team made some minor suggestions after the first round, but he nailed it on the first try.
Nrama: Billy, what influenced the new armor, visually? In particular, the head and chest piece look to be noticeably different than past Iron Man designs.
Billy Tan: Sam wanted something with a little cross of EVA from Evangelion, something sleek and alien-like. It would have been so cool visually to have the armor looking all elongated like EVA but it's not possible for Tony to fit in something like that. I was trying to make up that factor with slimmer and more stealthy look.Ultimate Comics
Ultimates #13.The armor gives him a more agile look and perhaps now he is able to use more physical maneuvers on his opponents. The side panels from his helmets serve not only for its functionality of storing his mask when he wants them to be retracted but I really want to give this armor a strong visual distinction from his other ones. I really don't see a point of giving him a new armor when it's just going to blend into any other one.
Nrama: Obviously Iron Man is a hugely recognizable character at this point. When designing a new armor and obviously wanting to make it distinct, how important is it to keep enough elements to make it identifiably "Iron Man"?
Humphries: It's as much about the man inside as it is the swag outside — if suits stop reflecting the style, attitude, and intelligence of Tony Stark, then it ceases to be Iron Man. Not every suit of armor is Iron Man, but when it is, you can just feel it. Plus, that red and gold color scheme is [Marvel editor-in-chief Axel Alonso]'s favorite because it reminds him of the San Francisco 49ers.
Nrama: Iron Man has a long tradition of changing up his look, with many well-known iterations along the line. Billy, how big of an honor is it for an artist to get a gig like redesigning Iron Man's armor?
Tan: Its a huge honor to get a chance to redesign a new armor for Iron Man. I was trying to make it as distinct from other armors as much as possible. Hopefully it's a look that people will remember when, where and which series it came from, even after 10 years from now.
Nrama: The current Ultimate line prides itself on doing things that can't be done in the regular Marvel Universe — in what ways is this new armor an extension of that ethos?
Humphries: Iron Man has some terrific looks going on right now — from [Salvador] Larocca's quicksilver-smooth update of the classic design, to the Ferrari/Lamborghini styles of the movie suits. Tony's brain operates on a different planet, so I wanted a suit of armor that looks like it came from an alien. That's a direction you can only get away with in the Ultimate Universe.
Nrama: Sam, the new armor debuts on your first solo issue of Ultimates. Is this, perhaps, partially you putting your own stamp on the series? Or is it more of a coincidence, timing-wise?Ultimate Comics
Ultimates #14.Humphries: Hey, if I blow it, I might never get another chance to put Iron Man in a new suit, so I might as well go for it right out of the gate! But seriously, the seeds for the new armor were planted back in the workshop scenes during [original series writer Jonathan Hickman]'s run, where we see Tony and Thor building it. We just picked up the ball and ran with it.
Nrama: Issue #13 starts the "Divided We Fall" event, and, as time tends to work, we're a lot closer to it now than we were when we first talked about it back in April. What would you tell a reader who might not be totally clear on what it's all about?
Humphries: In some ways, it's about one man witnessing the fall of America and refusing to stand down. And when that man is a super soldier who wears the red-white-and-blues and has some pretty powerful friends, you can bet sh*t is about to get real.More from Newsarama:

Best Buy is offering the Verizon HTC 8X for $199.99 when taken with a new 2-year contract. The flagship HTC Windows Phone 8 handset on offer supports 4G LTE, is tied to Verizon's network and comes in beautiful blue.
The 8X is HTC's beast in the road to Windows Phone 8 greatness. Dual-core 1.5Ghz CPU, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage and the Verizon version has been confirmed to include wireless charging functionality, much like what we've seen in both the Lumia 820 and Lumia 920 Windows Phones.
We've known the pricing point of the HTC 8X for a while with previous leaks confirming both the HTC hardware and Nokia Lumia 822. If attached contracts aren't really your thing, Best Buy also has the device unactivated for $649.99.
Note that according to the listing the HTC 8X sports a MicroSD slot, which it unfortunately doesn't. Only the HTC 8S enables the use of removable media in HTC's Windows Phone 8 line-up.
According to the product listing, the HTC 8X is available in-store for the time being. No word on availability, but we've previously looked at Thanksgiving being the target for release. As we reported earlier, apparently Verizon / Samsung don't want the Odyssey to "interfere" with the November launch of the Galaxy Note 2.

SEC Approves Revision of Customer and Industry Portions of NASD Code of Arbitration Procedure
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved the NASD Codes of Arbitration Procedure for Customer and Industry Disputes (hereinafter referred to as the Customer and Industry Codes, respectively, or new Codes).1 The Customer and Industry Codes reorganize the dispute resolution rules into separate procedural codes, simplify the language of the NASD Code of Arbitration Procedure (old Code), codify current practices and implement several substantive changes.
The Customer and Industry Codes can be accessed on the NASD Web site at the following links: www.nasd.com/rulefilings/customercode and http://www.nasd.com/rulefilings/industrycode. The Customer and Industry Codes will become effective on April 16, 2007, and will apply to claims filed on or after the effective date.2
In addition, the list selection provisions of the new Codes will apply to previously filed claims in which a list of arbitrators has not yet been generated and sent to the parties, or in which an entirely new list of arbitrators must be generated.3 In these cases, even though a list has been generated under the new Customer or Industry Code, the claim will continue to be governed by the remaining provisions of the old Code unless all parties agree to proceed under the new Code.
Questions regarding this Notice may be directed to Jean Feeney, Vice President and Chief Counsel, NASD Dispute Resolution, at (202) 728-6959; or Mignon McLemore, Assistant Chief Counsel, NASD Dispute Resolution, at (202) 728-8151.

They might never be changing their name, but the Redskins quickly changed language in five rookie contracts.
Earlier this week, the NFL disapproved the contracts of five undrafted free agents: linebacker Marvin Burdette, receiver Chip Reeves, center Tevita Stevens, receiver Jason Thompson, and receiver Nick Williams.
All five players immediately became free agents again, able to sign with any team. But the Redskins quickly fixed the problem before any of them could flee.
Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the team originally included an extra sentence that is standard in veteran contracts but verboten in rookie deals. The sentence was removed, the rookies have been re-signed, and the deals were re-submitted to the NFL.
It's not entirely uncommon in the rush of undrafted free-agent signings for glitches to arise.
UPDATED 11:22 a.m. ET: Some have inquired as to the specific sentence that is permitted in veteran contracts but not in rookie deals. We don't know, so we'll go with, "Player agrees to never suggest that the name of the franchise is offensive, derogatory, or should be changed to anything other than what it currently is, and that breach of this provision will result in immediate termination, at a minimum of his job and quite possibly the other kind."

Mayor Don Wesely announced today that he is launching a children's health initiative, "Healthy Kids 2010," with the first ever Mayor's Conference on Children's Health. The conference, set for January 10, 2001, will focus on children's environmental health and access to health care.
"This conference is the first major step forward in Healthy Kids 2010, a multifaceted initiative, which will bring attention to a broad range of children's health issues," Mayor Wesely said. The conference is being supported by the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department (LLCHD), the Lancaster County Medical Society, the Nebraska Health and Human Services System, the Nebraska Health Care Connection and the National Center for Environmental Health, which is part of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
"The conference is just the beginning of Healthy Kids 2010," Wesely said. "Over the next year, special efforts will be made to increase the visibility of the many issues impacting our children's health."
Existing programs in our community will be highlighted as part of the initiative. Those include the Community Asthma Education Initiative and use of the Mobile Health Force clinic as an outreach tool for dental screening and treatment for school children. Healthy Kids 2010 will also spotlight new initiatives, such as the recently funded Nurturing Parents program, which focuses on improving the health of high-risk infants, and the Children's Environmental Health Protection Initiative, a community and medical education program that will begin in conjunction with the conference.
"Children are at greater risk than adults from similar environmental exposures," said Leon F. Vinci, MPH, Health Director for LLCHD. "This is due to many factors, such as their bodies' inability to break down certain toxins. They also consume more food, water and air per body mass than adults and thus have higher doses of toxins." Many recent actions by EPA have highlighted this fact, such as the recently announced ban on two commonly used pesticides, Dursban and Diazanon. These products were specifically pulled from the market due to the risks they pose to children.
Keynote speakers at the conference will include:

Castle of Nightmare
I received a parcel from Japonica some days ago, finally my Castle of Nightmare is in my hands! I love this print, you know I'm a little obsessed with red Aatp prints…but I always think it's the best color of their gothic dresses! I made some pictures of the details, I hope you like them! My boyfriend helped me to get it ( I hadn't enough money XD) for Valentine present !
I love the dress cut, it's different from the other Aatp dresses I had and it fits really well! I also love the bottoms details on the front and the special "corset" on the back, they make the dress more special than other Aatp dresses! The print is so gorgeous, I fell in love with it, it's very detailed more than Vampire forest I had, but the fabric is always the same strange cotton that Btssb/Aatp uses (some example, like Vampire forest, Rapunzel, Paris Window, etc), and luckily I like it very much :D

"He who makes a beast of himself," Samuel Johnson famously observed, "gets rid of the pain of being a man." His subject is, of course, inebriation and the way that, in the derangement of the senses, we might escape, however briefly, what Lawrence Osborne calls "a loneliness that otherwise cannot be so easily dislodged."
And yet, if Osborne's delightfully idiosyncratic "The Wet and the Dry: A Drinker's Journey" has anything to tell us, it's that there is more to drinking than derangement, that it may lead to a transcendence more profound.
"There is," Osborne notes, "the unhappiness that comes with mundaneness, with normal life, which after all — and without undue exaggeration — leads to old age and death. So the departure from the self makes sense, and it's as easy as walking away from a mask and leaving it useless on the ground behind one. … The drinker is not adrift from normality because he wants to escape the mundane. He is the side effect of an insane belief that the mundane is all there is."
"The Wet and the Dry" is a deceptively nuanced book: a paean to drinking, a travelogue unfolding largely through the Islamic states of the Middle East and a memoir of sorts, in which Osborne's upbringing, in "a steadfast English suburb" during the 1970s, becomes a lens through which to read his life.
"The English relationship to drink," he writes, "is so deeply burned into my way of being in the world that to write about drink is to simultaneously write about England, a country I now know almost nothing about since I have lived in New York close to twenty years."
Here, Osborne is addressing time, which, in his view, is both personal and cultural at once. Some of his most potent observations have to do with British influence in the Arab world, how the fallout of decisions that once seemed pragmatic remains with us to this day. In Cairo, he stays (and drinks) at the Windsor Hotel, once "the British Officers' Mess," even as the January 25 Revolution takes shape outside. In southern Thailand, he reflects on a Muslim insurgency that wants to bring back "the Sultanate of Pattani … a small Islamic state of prior centuries erased from the map when the British, then masters of Malaya, donated the three southern states to the Kingdom of Siam in 1909."
What does this have to do with alcohol? Not much, except for Osborne's contention that drinking sets up a powerful divide between the Arab states and the West.
"The drinker knows that life is not mental and not a matter of control and demarcation," he argues. "The teetotaler, on the other hand, knows full well how even a molecule of alcohol changes body and mind. The Muslim, the Protestant puritan, and the teetotaler are kin; they understand the world in a very similar way, despite all their enormous differences, while the drinkers … know that the parameters that contain us are not all human, let alone divine."
In that sense, "The Wet and the Dry" refers not just to drinkers and nondrinkers but also to two very different ways of engaging with the world. It's a point Osborne makes explicit early in the book when he visits Lebanon, "the only Arab country with a wine country … the bridge between those two entities canonized as East and West but that could also be called Wet and Dry, Alcoholic and Prohibited."
For Osborne, this is no abstraction; the Lebanese port of Batroun, now a wine center, is said to be where Dionysus was born. "No one remembers," he tells us, "that Dionysianism was the most popular religion of the late empire before the arrival of Christianity. It was Christianity's principal rival." A similar set of tensions, it goes without saying, are in ascendancy today.
Such a conceit might run the risk of falling flat were it not for Osborne's erudition — and his experience. A travel writer and novelist — his books include "The Naked Tourist" and last year's novel "The Forgiven"; his dreamlike short story "Volcano" was selected for "The Best American Short Stories 2012" — he's lived in Europe, America and Morocco; currently, he makes his home in Istanbul.
That nomadism allows him an ease with the relativity of cultures, an understanding that what we take for granted in one place may be irrelevant, or even dangerous, somewhere else.
He is also adept at teasing out through lines, seeing the cycles, the connections, the way the same issues arise again and again. "Nowhere else does the transitory nature of religions seem so obvious," Osborne writes of Lebanon, tracing a line from "the cult of Dionysus-Bacchus" to Hezbollah. "They seem fixed and immovable, but they are not. They are constantly receding and reforming and fragmenting into pieces. Thus they are always prey to paranoia, because they know that they are far more transitory than they can afford to admit. We have even forgotten that Dionysianism was a religion at all."
All of this gives context to the drinking, making it a matter of philosophical, as opposed to hedonistic, choice. Certainly, Osborne likes his alcohol — he writes knowledgeably and passionately about gin, Scotch, vodka the history of bars — and he makes no excuses for his delight. He is, however, not an apologist; he knows that drinking, like so much in life, can be both blessing and curse.
"In writing about drink," he reflects, "one is forced to acknowledge that its effects are never calculable or short term; nor are they the scripts that a taste for redemption and confession are liable to bequeath to us. Often it is just blankness, a nonbeing, a failure to show up for life during weeks and even months."
As to where this leaves us, in many ways it is back where we began. "The reasons for hating it are all valid," Osborne admits, even as he celebrates his drinking habit. "But by the same token they are not really reasons at all. For in the end alcohol is merely us, a materialization of our own nature. To repress it is to repress something that we know about ourselves but cannot celebrate or even accept."

'Heart' of Bruno fraud case set to testify
Businessman is key witness in Bruno prosecution case
For three days, federal jurors hearing the retrial of former Senate Majority Leader Joseph L. Bruno have heard Jared E. Abbruzzese described as aloof, forceful and lacking in people skills.
On Thursday, they will get to judge the man for themselves.
Abbruzzese, 59, of Loudonville, a wealthy businessman at the heart of the bribery-related fraud case against the Brunswick Republican, is expected to testify early Thursday before Chief Judge Gary L. Sharpe in U.S. District Court.
Bruno, 85, is charged with two counts of honest services mail fraud in connection with hundreds of dollars in consulting payments he received from Abbruzzese between 2004 and 2006, as well as the $80,000 sale of a horse called worthless by the prosecution.
Abbruzzese is expected to testify under immunity that was granted to prevent him from invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.
If his testimony is anything like it was at Bruno's first trial in 2009, jurors will be in for a memorable day.
At the time, Abbruzzese cracked several one-liners, displayed sarcasm and name-dropped celebrities. He testified that in 2004, when he hired the powerful Senate leader as a $20,000-a-month consultant, "I wanted him for his Rolodex."
More Information
In brief
When a reporter asked Bruno outside court why no witness has said what he did to earn $20,000 a month, Bruno's son Kenneth, former Rensselaer County district attorney, interjected: "He's not going to answer any of those types of questions!"
Testimony revealed former NYRA board of trustees member Wayne Barr, when informed that a television news station was inquiring about Evident Technologies, told an Evident official: "Ignore it. It can't be good."
Bruno horse partner, veterinarian Jerry Bilinski, said his reaction was "surprise" when he learned an allegedly worthless horse sold for $80,000, but believes no horses are worthless. Said he believes animals deserve respect.
Abbruzzese said Bruno's vast contacts — and "visual credibility" — would help him network with developers of golf courses in Florida, such associates of golfer Greg Norman.
"I prize my friendship with Mr. Norman and business is always different than friendship, and if I am going to serve up anything from business perspective to his people I wanted to make sure that it was real and credible," Abbruzzese testified.
He said Bruno introduced him to Donald Trump.
"I have to tell you, just a brief aside, I went in there to try and work on potential opportunities with Donald Trump, based on an introduction from Joe — and I came out of there having bought a membership at one of his clubs," Abbruzzese testified. "So, in the art of the deal, he totally walked over me. I mean, it cost me money and I got nothing out of it. But he does comb his hair from the side and swirl it around!"
Abbruzzese testified that Bruno's work for him later required the senator's attendance at three swanky dinners in New York City, including one at Rao's, an exclusive Italian eatery in East Harlem. Abbruzzese said he and Bruno ran into former U.S. Sen. Alfonse M. D'Amato in a "big Italian yuk-yuk."
Bruno's work was to tell the "story" of Motient and Terrestar, Abbruzzese-controlled firms that paid Bruno $20,000 monthly.
"I used Senator Bruno to build one of the tools I tried to deploy to build credibility around a story that otherwise didn't have a chance," Abbruzzese testified.
So far, witnesses in the retrial have recalled their experiences with Abbruzzese as trying.
On Wednesday, Jerry Bilinski, a veterinarian and former chairman of the State Racing and Wagering Board, took issue with the prosecution's description of the horse being worthless — but had no such kind words for Abbruzzese.
"I've always found him a little aloof," Bilinski testified, noting Abbruzzese would often not return phone calls. He owned horses with Bruno and Abbruzzese
When Bruno attorney E. Stewart Jones asked Wayne Barr, Abbruzzese's longtime business partner, if Abbruzzese could be "rough around the edges sometimes," Barr answered: "More times than not."
Barr said Abbruzzese is intelligent but "can be forceful."
"Mr. Abbruzzese sometimes exhibits deficient people skills. Fair statement?"
"Fair statement," Barr replied.
Barr was partner in Communication Technology Advisors and Capital & Technology Advisors, the two Abbruzzese-controlled firms that employed Bruno. Barr was later appointed by Bruno to sit on the New York Racing Association board of trustees
Earlier Wednesday, Assistant U.S. Attorney Elizabeth Coombe suggested to Barr that in 2005 Bruno tried to oust then-NYRA chairman Steve Duncker in favor of a chairman who supported privatizing the racetracks. By supporting the privatization, she suggested, Bruno would be in step with Abbruzzese.
The attempt allegedly took place during a meeting in Bruno's Albany Senate office on Nov. 21, 2005. At the meeting were Barr, NYRA President Charles Hayward and among others, Joseph Torani, an accountant and Senate Republican appointee to the NYRA Oversight Committee.
"Joe Torani was asked to deliver a message to Mr. Hayward on behalf of Senator Bruno, wasn't he?" Coombe asked Barr.
"I don't know, ma'am," Barr replied.
Coombe suggested Bruno wanted Timothy Smith, a founding member of Friends of New York Racing, to take Duncker's place. Abbruzzese and Barr were involved with the group, which planned "formulate a new business model" for thoroughbred racing in the state.
"(Bruno) wanted Mr. Duncker to resign and Mr. Hayward to find some role for Tim Smith at NYRA, didn't he?" Coombe pressed Barr.
"I don't know," he replied.

Hope Rising (yes, her real name) says that the day she watched her husband pull out of their driveway for the last time, she collapsed, clutching her stomach in pain.
That was, she says, in March 2012, a day before the couple's seventh wedding anniversary. Rising says she begged him not to go, and after he left, she couldn't get out of bed for days, though she rarely slept.
"Usually I'd just lie in bed and stare at the wall or the ceiling," Rising, 47, said. "I was angry that he left, and then I'd think about what I could have done differently for him not to leave."
Her stomach was constantly in knots, she suffered severe migraines and lived on "coffee, cigarettes and protein shakes." She lost 60 pounds in two months. Her children -- young adults from a previous marriage -- worried she was suicidal.

Mrs Righton's back in London
Keira Knightley was out in London last night after getting married to James Righton in France and then honeymooning in Corsica. They were away for about a week. Back at home now, she hit up the Groucho Club with some friends on her own wearing the same leather jacket she had on over dungarees. There's a wardrobe investment, right? A leather jacket you love is always a good investment. Because you'll wear it all the time. Which means you can easily get the cost-per-wear (I talk about this a lot -- my "CPW") down to almost nothing.
Keira's is Balenciaga. It retails for $3000 if you count the tax. Here's how I would try to justify it beyond my usual rationalisations, like we don't own a home and we don't have kids so we don't have to put away for our child's education, and, oh yeah, the reality of my credit card not going that high:
If I bought this jacket, I'd wear it at least 15 times a month for at least 5 months of the year for at least 3 years. That brings the CPW down to $13...unless I see another jacket I like next year, although of course, when you're making purchases like this, you always promise you'll never love another jacket as much as you love this one.

Naked Caveman With a Cell Phone Terrorizes Texas [VIDEO]
Some people in El Paso, Texas, say they live in fear ... of the naked caveman in McKelligon Canyon. All of that sentence is true.
Over the weekend, some hikers discovered a cave complete with furnishings and other signs of life when, they claim, a naked man (not pictured) sprung from the cave and chased them down the mountainside.
The caveman has been terrorizing people for nearly three years, according to some residents of an apartment community just below the mountain. They say that sometimes he can even be seen taking baths in their laundry room and working out on their jungle gym. Other residents claim the mountain man steals their clothes.
However, the nameless cave dweller disagrees. He says that he isn't hurting anyone, and the "busy bodies" of the community make up lies about him running around naked. "If that's true, where's the pictures?" he asked.
The caveman says that he keeps up on current events with his cell phone and lives off of donating plasma, public donations and by recycling cans.
Here's the full caveman interview (warning: strong language):

Everything is Already OK

- dhopper said...
Again, you make perfect sense Randall. But what causes or initiates this "grasping"? What causes the shift in perspective? "I" can't see it, and clearly no activity on the part of "I" can remove self-same "I"? Still stuck........
- December 11, 2011 at 8:46 AM

Hello again my friend.
The frustration is understandable because it's still something which the individual has to grasp. As long as the search references the individual it's endless.
The question is - WHO is stuck? To WHOM do you refer? Who or what is that entity which is stuck, which is seeking and is yet to find the answer or "see it"?
It is this idea of what you are, this WHO, which is the problem. To say "I still don't see it" is the problem itself. WHO doesn't see it? There is not a view which is now incorrect and later a view which is. There is NOW an incorrect idea about what you are, and that idea is found to be false.
That means right now, you already ARE THAT, you already ARE what is being pointed out. It isn't a matter of YOU seeing something different. It is being dumbstruck in realization that this YOU you took yourself to be is and always was false.
In that realization, that means everything was already ok. It was the chasing after, the idea that you needed to find something, which was the problem and the obstacle.
If you have questions and want to work through it, you are welcome to email.

Hello Randall,
I love this post. I have read it many times because I enjoy it so much!
In regard to the comments above all I can say is... keep recognising that there is no "thing" that knows...that sense of "I" is as much part of the appearance as anything else.
Love to you Bill
