The Place that Gave Birth to Her Future
At UAlbany, Cynthia Bernal '05 found the opportunities and guidance she needed to advance a career in medicine
Cynthia Bernal stands before an Obstetrics and Gynecology room at Rochester General Hospital, where she is the hospital's chief OB/GYN resident.
ALBANY, N.Y. (February 4, 2014) — Cynthia Bernal '05 chose the University at Albany because she wanted to attend a school that was a "comfortable" distance from her New York City home. "Not too far," she said, "but enough so I had the freedom to stretch my wings." She found even greater comfort and confidence in the academic courses and guidance offered by UAlbany. They led her to new challenges and key decisions that fulfilled her dream of becoming a doctor.
Today, Bernal is the chief resident in Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN) at Rochester General Hospital, attending patients "who are going through one of life's most amazing, intimate moments — having a baby." After completing her residency in May, she'll head to Long Island, having accepted a position in private practice.
Learn and view more about Cynthia Bernal and other outstanding UAlbany alumni on the Outcomes Video Page.
Bernal's nascent goal of a medical career took true shape in college. "My UAlbany education was great preparation for medical school," she said. "I took biology, biochemistry, organic chemistry — all the courses you need to lay the foundation to take the next step forward."
She also became a Ronald McNair scholar, a federal program aimed at preparing undergraduates who are either members of underrepresented groups or in financial need for doctoral studies. The scholarship led to participation in a research project at Albany Medical College that enabled her to closely observe one of the school's physician researchers, Dr. Andres Melendez.
"UAlbany was constantly giving me access to people, places, and opportunities," said Bernal. "While at UAlbany, I participated in a Dartmouth College program: the International Summer School on Biocomplexity from Gene to System. I conducted research at Albany Med on oxidant-dependent regulation of gene expression. That would not have happened without UAlbany."
She called Monica Hope, her counselor in the Educational Opportunity Program, "a crucial supportive figure during my years at UAlbany. She knew my goals and what I was interested in and made sure I knew which opportunities were available. It was Monica that made the Ronald McNair research opportunity available to me and helped me with the application process."
Bernal became interested in obstetrics and gynecology in her third year at Ross University School of Medicine, from which she received her Doctor of Medicine in 2009. "I found women's health to be extremely fascinating," she said. "Bringing someone's baby into this world is an experience that words cannot match, but the surgical aspect of gynecology sparked my interest and curiosity as well. Minimally invasive surgery and robotics is a passion I look forward to enhancing after my residency."
Bernal "stretched her wings" at UAlbany well beyond academics. She swam, played basketball and winter sports, was in the Biology Club, the Charles Drew Science Club, and participated in the National Youth Leadership Forum.
"I am very grateful and happy that I went to a SUNY school — that I was able to afford it and be where I am now," she said. "I made the most of my time at UAlbany, and it paid off personally and professionally."

There's something inherently science fictional about breaking the fourth wall — like passing from a dimension of fiction into the real world. And savvy filmmakers have been playing with the strangeness of this notion for years. Here are the 10 weirdest movie scenes that broke the fourth wall.
1) Deathstalker 2
In the intro to this sequel, the evil Sultana turns to the audience to assure us that she will have her revenge, "and Deathstalker too," except it sounds as though she's actually saying, "I'll have my revenge in Deathstalker 2." And she says it directly to the camera, as the movie's title pops up.
2) Monty Python and The Holy Grail
We could have included any one of a number of Monty Python examples. But this scene, when Zoot/Dingo actress Carol Cleveland turns to the audience to ask if this scene should be cut, actually was cut from the first video release of the film.
3) Europa/Zentropa
This pre-Dogme Lars von Trier movie was surreal and Kafka-esque in the best way. In the opening second-person voiceover, Max von Sydow hypnotically counts down as the viewer travels deeper into the world of the film.
4) Orlando
This adaptation of the Virginia Woolf novella introduced everyone to Tilda Swinton, whose androgyny is perfect for the role. The film is framed by Orlando's memoir in voice-over, but Swinton frequently looks straight into the camera, using her face to sometimes echo, and sometimes undermine, what the voiceover is saying.
5) Dune
The novel's expository conceit uses epigraphs from Princess Irulan's fictional books, histories, and biographies of the novel's key players. The film, which was, of course, directed by fourth-wall-destroyer David Lynch, adopts that conceit by having Irulan's giant head floating in space, speaking directly to the audience. She even fades out, and fades back in because she "forgot" to tell us the most important detail about the film, the source of the Spice.
6) Gremlins 2
Animator Chuck Jones came out of retirement to work on Gremlins 2, and the film features an old-fashioned Warner Bros Looney Tunes intro, or seems to, until it gets stolen by Daffy Duck, who insists that he's the star now. Daffy reappears during the end credits to comment on how stupid they are, and to tell the audience to go home.
7) Funny Games
Nobody ever really knows what to do with Michael Haneke's films. In Funny Games, which sets itself up as an intensely realist, intimate horror film, one of the young torturer-murderers is able to literally rewind the action and start a scene over, ensuring that he and his partner always win the "game."
8) The Purple Rose of Cairo
Woody Allen's most famous fourth-wall-breaking scene is this one, but The Purple Rose of Cairo is a really lovely, strange movie about a character who steps across the fourth wall and refuses to go back in, even when the actor who plays him insists on it.
9) Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
Ben Affleck plays Holden McNeil, whom Jay and Silent Bob visit to demand royalties from the movie based on the Bluntman and Chronic comic, which is based on their life. McNeil is bitter, and has sold his rights, and tells them that since the film is being made by Miramax, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck will probably be cast in it.
10) Spaceballs
Like the Pythons and David Lynch, Mel Brooks never met a fourth wall he didn't want to demolish, and Blazing Saddles is the most oft-cited example. But Spaceballs gets points for being even more meta, when the characters in the movie watch themselves on a VHS tape and comment on the marketing of the video.


text: This was supposed to turn out differently; not this CR-X, my week and this post that is. I was going to bookend the week that started out with my rant about the ugly new CR-Z with a CC featuring a pristine gen1 CR-X I had in the can. Poof! That whole folder is gone, along with ten other cars. Ouch. But I had this silver spray-painted CR-X art-car in the making as an Outtake. But you know what? It's impossible to uglify a CRX that easily. These kids are going to have to work a lot harder before they can obliterate the clean, slick lines of one of the most iconic and loved Hondas ever. So I'm going to spend my afternoon getting a new computer set up and transferring files, and try to remember where I last saw that unblemished CR-X. (Read More…)

On Friday, I didn't have to go to work due to snow and ice. The Hero was home so we hung out in bed most of the day.

(CNN)Five people were shot dead and eight wounded in the baggage claim area at Fort Lauderdale's airport, and law enforcement sources tell CNN the suspect had brought the firearm in his checked luggage.
Esteban Santiago Identified as Fort Lauderdale Airport Shooter
Santiago, 26, was carrying military ID when he was arrested
Law enforcement sources identified the Fort Lauderdale Airport shooter as Esteban Santiago, a 26-year-old man born in New Jersey who appears to have acted alone.
Federal sources told NBC News the shootings did not appear to be an act of terrorism, and both federal and family sources said Santiago had some mental health issues.
Santiago, born in March 1990, had military ID on him when he was arrested, multiple senior law enforcement sources told NBC.
Sources said Santiago took Delta flight no. 1088 from Anchorage to Minneapolis-St. Paul Thursday night. He landed Friday morning, and then took Delta flight no. 2182 from Minneapolis-St. Paul to Fort Lauderdale.
After arriving at Fort Lauderdale, he picked up his gun at baggage claim in the airport's Terminal 2 and then began firing, sources said.
He was taken into custody unharmed.
Santiago's brother, Bryan Santiago, spoke with NBC News over the phone from Puerto Rico Friday afternoon.
He said Esteban was born in New Jersey but moved to Penuela, Puerto Rico, where Bryan and their mother still live. Esteban served in the National Guard in Puerto Rico for six years, and went to Iraq for about a year, Bryan said.
"He was pro-America," Bryan said.
Esteban moved to Alaska two years ago for work, and had been employed as a security guard, according to his brother. He had a girlfriend and a child there.
A spokeswoman for the Alaska National Guard confirmed to NBC News that Esteban Santiago joined the Puerto Rico National Guard on Dec. 14, 2007, and was deployed to Iraq from April 23, 2010 to Feb. 19, 2011.
He was then in the Army Reserves before joining the Alaska Army National Guard on Nov. 21, 2014. He received a general discharge from the Alaska Army National Guard on Aug. 16, 2016, for unsatisfactory performance, the spokeswoman said.
Esteban Santiago was a combat engineer and his rank was private first class when he was discharged.
Esteban was "fighting with a lot of people" during his time in Alaska, Bryan Santiago told NBC News, saying he was having relationship issues and arguing with his girlfriend and others. The girlfriend told Bryan that his brother was "receiving psychological counseling in Anchorage."
Esteban did have a handgun, his brother said.
Bryan said he could not imagine his brother committing the crime, and speculated that perhaps he had a "flashback" from his military experience, although he said there was no PTSD diagnosis or other post-Iraq issues.
Bryan said he had not heard form Esteban for several weeks, which is unusual, and that the family was worried about him.
"He is a regular person, spiritual, a good person," he said.
Alaskan court records show an Esteban Santiago with the same date of birth was charged with two misdemeanors last year; one count was dismissed and Santiago was due back in court on the second this coming March.
The Broward Sheriff's Office said they received a call about the shooting around 12:55 p.m. Live video more than an hour after the attack showed people running across the tarmac between terminals while others took cover behind car.
President-elect Donald Trump tweeted, "Monitoring the terrible situation in Florida. Just spoke to Governor Scott. Thoughts and prayers for all. Stay safe!" Florida Gov. Rick Scott was traveling to Fort Lauderdale to be briefed by law enforcement, his office said.

A very talented, young centreback that has been troubled by injuries througout his career. Vlaar debuted aged 20 for AZ and had since impressed Dutch crowds all over the country, often being named the next Jaap Stam before moving to Feyenoord on a 3 year deal in 2006. During the U21 EC a year later, Vlaar hurt his knee and was out for a long time. The 2008-2009 proved to be a disappoint for Ron too, spending much of the season on the stands with multiple niggling injuries and some bad knee injuries.
Recently, Vlaar has impressed in the centre of defence along with Bahia and Van Dijk; having conceded 0 goals for Feyenoord so far in the 09-10 season.

Trade News
Munich, 4 October 2010 – Linde Gases, a division of The Linde Group, today announced its agreement with Swedish steel manufacturer, SSAB, for the installation of an extensive REBOX® HLL oxyfuel system at its steel mill in Borlänge, Sweden. Combined with a similar but smaller system implemented at the plant by Linde in early 2009, the installation will represent the world's largest oxyfuel combustion system in a reheat furnace and is scheduled for completion January 2011. SSAB is a leading global producer of high strength steels, with a production capacity of more than six million tonnes.
The first REBOX® HLL system, with 25 megawatts (MW) of power, was installed in one of two zones within one of the 300 tonnes per hour walking beam furnaces at the Borlänge mill. Following its successful operation, the technology will now be extended to that furnace's second zone and to both zones within the other furnace. The combined oxyfuel installation will allow the Borlänge plant to operate at 60-70 MW and will deliver operational improvements including a 10 percent increase in throughput capacity, a reduction of fuel consumption by 15 percent, in addition to helping to decrease CO2 and NOx emissions by as much as 15 and 25 percent respectively.
"SSAB continuously aims to make its operations more efficient and decrease environmental impact. We are committed to use technologies that decrease fuel consumption and CO2 and NOX emissions. Working in close cooperation with Linde's steel reheating specialists, through laboratory tests and stepwise full-scale implementation, has created the trust and experience needed when taking on a new technology. REBOX® HLL has already been proven to be successful in Borlänge, and we are now taking a further step to gain additional benefits," said Ronnie Högberg, Production and Site Manager at SSAB's strip mill in Borlänge.
Linde's patented REBOX® HLL technology creates a type of flameless oxyfuel without the need to replace existing air-fuel burners. By reducing the air flow within the combustion process and substituting the majority of the air with oxygen, which is delivered via high velocity injection, combustion is greatly improved. Additionally, the flue-gas volume produced from this oxygen-enhanced mixture is less than 55 percent of that of air-fuel alone. The benefits for the end user include increased throughput capacity, improved temperature uniformity, decreased fuel consumption and reduction of NOx and CO2 emissions. As no alternative or additional burners are required, which minimises the installation downtime, the legacy air-fuel system can also be re-instated at any time. This mitigates potential risk associated with the implementation and allows for optimal and flexible operations in order to respond to fluctuating fuel costs and production requirements.
"The agreement with SSAB for a second, larger installation of REBOX® HLL is an important milestone for Linde," said Joachim von Schéele, Marketing Manager Metals and Glass, Linde Gases. "SSAB's decision validates the use of this particular type of oxyfuel technology in large steel reheating furnaces and we believe it can make a significant impact on reducing fuel consumption and emissions of greenhouse gases not only for SSAB but for other steel manufacturers globally over the next few years."
About REBOX®
REBOX® oxyfuel solutions are employed in 120 reheating and annealing furnaces worldwide.

Net::Frame - the base framework for frame crafting
# Basic example, send a TCP SYN to a target, using all modules # the framework comprises. It also waits for the response, and # prints it. my $target = '192.168.0.1'; my $port = 22; use Net::Frame::Device; use Net::Write::Layer3; use Net::Frame::Simple; use Net::Frame::Dump::Online; use Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4; use Net::Frame::Layer::TCP; my $oDevice = Net::Frame::Device->new(target => $target); my $ip4 = Net::Frame::Layer::IPv4->new( src => $oDevice->ip, dst => $target, ); my $tcp = Net::Frame::Layer::TCP->new( dst => $port, options => "\x02\x04\x54\x0b", payload => 'test', ); my $oWrite = Net::Write::Layer3->new(dst => $target); my $oDump = Net::Frame::Dump::Online->new(dev => $oDevice->dev); $oDump->start; my $oSimple = Net::Frame::Simple->new( layers => [ $ip4, $tcp ], ); $oWrite->open; $oSimple->send($oWrite); $oWrite->close; until ($oDump->timeout) { if (my $recv = $oSimple->recv($oDump)) { print "RECV:\n".$recv->print."\n"; last; } } $oDump->stop;
Net::Frame is a fork of Net::Packet. The goal here was to greatly simplify the use of the frame crafting framework. Net::Packet does many things undercover, and it was difficult to document all the thingies. Also, Net::Packet may suffer from unease of use, because frames were assembled using layers stored in L2, L3, L4 and L7 attributes. Net::Frame removes all this, and is split into different modules, for those who only want to use part of the framework, and not whole framework. Finally, anyone can create a layer, and put it on his CPAN space, because of the modularity Net::Frame offers. For an example, see Net::Frame::Layer::ICMPv4 on my CPAN space. Net::Frame does ship with basic layers, to start playing.

This follow-up provides additional information for the acid spill that occurred Monday, June 23, 2014 in the hallway near Oelman Hall's Lab Stores.
A 2.5-liter bottle of glacial acetic acid was spilled during transport. Fortunately, no one was injured. The first responders who initially had minor symptoms from exposure were medically evaluated and released. Unfortunately, the resulting acetic acid vapors permeated Oelman Hall and the surrounding buildings via the tunnels. This release required many of the campus buildings to be evacuated as a precaution.
The spilled acetic acid was completely cleaned up. No additional concerns of contamination associated with this spill exist in any areas of the affected buildings.
As a result of the incident, campus chemical delivery, spill response, and evacuation procedures are currently being evaluated.
In the meantime, supervisors, faculty, principle investigators, and staff who work with chemicals should evaluate their own procedures. Also remember to always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and to use carts and sturdy containers when moving chemicals.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Environmental Health and Safety at 775-2215.
Thank you and have a safe day.

Get DVD Talk Feeds
Let's be honest: a lot of movies and TV shows from our childhoods just don't hold up now, since kids are much more forgiving of...well, total crap. Disney's loose adaptation of Robin Hood (1973) was a personal favorite growing up, mostly because a friend of mine always seemed to be watching it when I came over. He pretty much wore the cassette out after a few short years...but during that time, I'd probably seen Robin Hood (or various parts of it) at least fifty or even a hundred times. Oddly enough, I don't recall seeing it even once since then, so popping in Disney's new Blu-ray was kind of a gamble: did I dare revisit this sacred cow through adult eyes, or should I just leave what I fondly remembered alone?
Well, I'm glad I did, because Robin Hood is still a fun, lightweight diversion that holds up pretty darn well. To be fair, it's not in the same league as contemporary classics like The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast or Aladdin, and it's also an artistic step down from older milestones like Snow White, Bambi and Fantasia. But a film, animated or otherwise, doesn't have to be epic, game-changing or visually flawless to be considered worthwhile, though nostalgia alone shouldn't be reason enough to blindly defend it.
I still enjoy Robin Hood for its featherweight structure, colorful characters and unabashed goodness in the face of evil, even if it's goofy and non-threatening like the cowardly, thumb-sucking Prince John or his smart-mouthed, slithering sidekick Sir Hiss. I love that the film runs just 86 minutes and doesn't necessarily need a huge, Earth-shattering climax to feel suspenseful, and that it somehow marries the unique cultural backdrops of the southern United States and medieval England. And I love that, even though certain scenes don't necessarily flow together seamlessly, Robin Hood still creates a unique mood that fits perfectly between classic and contemporary Disney animated fare. It's undoubtedly an accessible film that will appeal to younger audiences, especially those who probably couldn't handle Mufasa's death in The Lion King or Fantasia's "Night on Bald Mountain" sequence. Most importantly, it's charming, unpretentious, entertaining and (dare I say) quaint, in a way that some Disney films aren't.
I will acknowledge, of course, that Robin Hood isn't a perfect film. The story suffers a bit of lag during the second act, drifting in focus while it attempts to build momentum for the slightly rushed finale. The songs also miss the mark at times (especially during the second half), though perhaps it's due to their placement in the film, not the quality of the songwriting. It also inadvertently spawned this fuzzy li'l earworm back from the golden days of dial-up and newsgroups. But just for the record, the recycled choreography from films like Snow White and The Jungle Book doesn't bother me in the least. Considering Robin Hood's low budget, it's a largely winning production that's aged well during the last 40 years.
Robin Hood arrives on Blu-ray the same day as The Sword in the Stone (1963) and Oliver & Company (1988), and it's great to see the studio commit to reviving some of these lesser-knowns in high definition. Robin Hood is undoubtedly my favorite of the three, plus the Blu-ray itself is a mostly satisfying effort. Serving up a solid A/V presentation and a handful of bonus features (mostly from older releases), there's plenty here to enjoy...even if, like me, you've seen it several dozen times before.
Presented in a slightly cropped 1.67:1 aspect ratio (though it's a fair compromise, considering the "Most Wanted Edition" DVD was cropped even tighter at 1.75:1), this 1080p transfer is pretty darn satisfying overall. Robin Hood's slightly muted, watercolor-toned palette looks suitably saturated, while the casual, sketchy art style shows no signs of excessive DNR or compromised black levels. Disney films of this era, especially those with Robin Hood's smaller budget, simply had a unique style and it's been preserved nicely on Blu-ray. No compression artifacts, banding, interlacing issues or signs of edge enhancement could be spotted along the way, leading me to believe that this is the best presentation we'll be getting for quite some time. Overall, fans should be enormously pleased with Disney's tasteful efforts.
The default audio track is presented in DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio...and obviously enough, it's not exactly a powerhouse. More often than not, this mix stays right up front while occasional background noise and the sporadic music cues drift into the rear channels on occasion. Dialogue always remains crisp and easy to follow, though some of the louder moments (especially during busy sequences, such as the archery tournament) sound a little overcooked at times. Much like the visuals, this is simply respectful treatment of limited source material. Also included is a lossy Dolby Digital 2.0 track, as well as 5.1 dubs in French, Spanish and Portuguese. Optional subtitles or captions are also offered in the same languages.
Everything else of note has been ported over from Disney's earlier "Gold Collection" and "Most Wanted" DVD editions. This recycled material includes a brief storyboarded Alternate Ending (5 minutes), a karaoke-style Song Selection feature (4 songs, 8 minutes total), a narrated Robin Hood Storybook (14 minutes) and Art Gallery (9 minutes), a few more Sing-Along Songs, a very loosely related vintage black-and-white Mickey Mouse Cartoon ("Ye Olden Days", 8 minutes) and a handful of related Trailers.
Also tucked inside, of course, is a new 40th Anniversary DVD and a Digital Copy Code. Oddly enough, the Art Gallery included on the DVD also offers a page-through option, which I prefer to the narrated version present on both discs. Optional English subtitles have been included for all applicable supplements.
Depending on your age, Robin Hood could either be a throwaway effort from one of Disney's least prolific decades, a nostalgic childhood favorite or a film that you haven't gotten around to seeing yet. As I fall squarely into the middle camp, the film's mild shortcomings are more apparent when viewed through adult eyes...but considering the budget and production limitations, Robin Hood is a fun, lightweight and unpretentious film that families can still enjoy. Featuring likable characters, plenty of laughs, a breezy plot and attractive animation, Robin Hood has aged slightly in some categories but, for my money, still remains fairly timeless. Disney's Blu-ray is a capable effort but not one of their best, serving up a dependable A/V presentation and only one new bonus feature. It's a little overpriced for what you get, though established fans and Disney collectors may find it impossible to resist. Firmly Recommended.

THOUSAND OAKS, CA (RNN) - The victims of a shooting at a Southern California bar on Wednesday night included many young people who were out enjoying college night, others who were just out playing pool and watching the Lakers, and a sheriff's deputy who gave his life trying to stop a massacre.
The shooting at the Borderline Bar & Grill killed 12, less than two weeks after a synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh killed 11.
Cody Coffman, 22, was among those slain at the bar. Jason Coffman, his father, spoke to CNN in the hours after the shooting when he didn't know his son's status, and he spoke publicly once he learned of his son's death.
"I just want to thank everybody that let me get out this morning, just to put his face on the news," said the father through tears. "This is going to be an absolute heart-wrenching time for me and my family."
Another victim was identified as Alaina Housley. The Pepperdine University student was the niece of "Sister, Sister" actress Tamera Mowry-Housley and her husband.
Her family said "our hearts are broken" in a statement.
"Alaina was an incredible young woman with so much life ahead of her and we are devastated that her life was cut short in this manner," the statement said. "We thank everyone for your prayers and ask for privacy at this time."
Justin Meek, 23, was also among the victims. His hometown newspaper in Coronado, near San Diego, reported he was "shot multiple times trying to save others."
Noel Sparks, 21, was confirmed as a victim by her church on Facebook.
"We grieve with Tony Sparks and Wendy Anderson," United Methodist Church Westlake Village wrote.
Dan Manrique, a Marine veteran, was named as a victim by the veterans outreach organization Team Red, White, and Blue, with which he was a regional manager.
"Dan's life was dedicated to serving others, during his military career and beyond," the group's executive director, John Pinter, said.
A bouncer at the bar, Sean Adler, was identified by the school where he once coached wrestling.
"He was positive, motivational, and truly wanted the best for the people around him," Royal High School Wrestling posted on Facebook.
The Thousand Oaks Acorn newspaper in the city also identified four more on Facebook. They were Blake Dingman, Jake Dunham, Kristina Morisette and Telemachus Orfanos.
In an emotional news conference, Ventura County Sheriff Geoff Dean said Ron Helus, a sergeant from his department, was among the 12 victims who were killed. Helus was one of the first responders to the scene.
Helus was a 29-year veteran of the force, looking to retire in the next year. He is survived by his wife and son.
"Losing Ron, we go to the gym together and work out together," Dean said. "There's no way to describe this. It saddens us all and tears at our emotions. He died a hero. He went in to save lives, to save other people."
Dean said there had been six off-duty police officers from different departments in the bar at the time. Witnesses said they helped shield people.
Law enforcement officials identified the suspect as 28-year-old Ian David Long, a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps. Dean said the suspected gunman died at the scene from what they believe is a self-inflicted wound.
Authorities said he deployed a smoke device and used a Glock.
The shooting happened around 11:20 p.m. Wednesday local time at the Borderline Bar & Grill. Witnesses report at least 30 shots were fired, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Police had multiple run-ins with Long in the past, Dean said. They responded to a call at a house in April where the suspect was acting irrationally.
"They called out our crisis intervention team, our mental health specialists who met with him, talked to him and cleared him," the sheriff said. "(They) didn't feel he was qualified to be taken under 5150. And he was left at that scene last April."
A "5150" is a code in California law stating a person is a danger to themselves or others because of a mental health issue.
The suspect lived with his mother in a nearby neighborhood where some neighbors said he "minded his own business." The FBI was seen Thursday morning searching his home.
A former roommate told the Los Angeles Times that Long "wasn't outgoing or talkative" and that he "kept to himself."
The sheriff said he didn't remember the city having another mass shooting in his time on the force. He retires Friday.
"I've been a cop for 41 years, and I never thought I'd see the things we've seen around the country," Dean said.
Dean gave the timeline for what happened at the bar: "It appears (the gunman) walked up to the scene. He shot the security guard that was standing outside. He stepped inside. It appears that he turned to the right and shot several of the other security and employees there, and then began opening fire inside the nightclub. We don't have any other details to confirm an exact chronology about what happened."
Deputies said many people fled the bar after shots rang out. Hundreds are believed to have been inside at the time of the incident, according to Capt. Garo Kuredjian with the sheriff's office.
All the victims have been identified and their families have now been notified, Kuredjian said Thursday.
President Donald Trump ordered flags at half-staff to show respect.
Thousand Oaks is a suburb of Los Angeles, located about 40 miles northwest of downtown.

We recently featured The Beatles Complete On Ukulele as a member's choice (actually my own webmaster's choice on my birthday!) and were delighted when German musician, Christian Jahl, agreed to write us this guest article about his experience working on the project and his music. Jeanette
How did you get involved with The Beatles Complete On Ukulele?
I joined the project in 2009 after listening to a radio show about David Barratt´s idea of producing each Beatles track newly with the uke as lead instrument. That sounded so weird to me that I got in touch with David via mail. After he had heard my music, we got on well together and so I started recording Wenn Du Jemanden Brauchst. That version from the video footage was recorded in my hometown Düsseldorf, which you might know as the city where the German pop avant-garde band Kraftwerk comes from, and New York. David got my tracks with guitars, Wurlitzer and vocals and he and Roger [Greenawalt] added uke, bass and some of the effects. So, that's what I call a real long distance production. I played all instrumental tracks and sung all vocal tracks.
Listen to Wenn Du Jemanden Brauchst / If I Needed Someone – Christian Jahl's Myspace
Why did you pick If I Needed Someone? Was it a particular favourite song?
George Harrison has always been such an inspiration to me, his character and his way of seeing things in general. So I picked up one of his beautiful songs, with a melody that is really catchy and in some strange way "endless". I listened endlessly to If I Needed Someone when I was a teen. Everybody used to ask me why I was listening to that "old crap". Harrison was also the one who led me to the ukulele. Once he said, he always had a uke on him to be able to play wherever he was. That sounded reasonable to me. This instrument is like a little orchestra in your pocket, wow!! I always enjoy playing it and am happy about the renaissance it has experienced lately.

I'm keeping it short and sweet today. A big thank you to Ivonne for sharing her mother's amaretti recipe and to Sam for posting a photo which had my almond-loving friend craving them so much that she immediately asked me if I could make amaretti. I was more than happy to oblige. I had the dough ready for the oven in 10 minutes (which is how long it took to preheat the oven). Super easy and super delicious!
(makes 16 cookies)
6 ounces almond meal
scant ½ cup granulated sugar
1 tsp cocoa powder
1 large egg
½ tsp almond extract
additional sugar for rolling (optional)
Adjust one oven rack to the lowest position and one oven rack to the middle position. Preheat oven to 350F.
Mix almond meal, sugar and cocoa in a mixing bowl. Mix in egg and almond extract.
Form 1-inch balls of dough. Roll in sugar (if using). Place onto a parchment lined baking sheet. The amaretti do not spread during baking so you can fit as many as you like onto your baking sheet.
Bake on lowest rack for 10 minutes. Move amaretti to middle rack and bake for 7 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes on baking sheet. Transfer amaretti to cooling rack.

Minibus transfers to Ko Chang from Pattaya
Siam Resorts Minibuses is one of the very few minibus / limousine companies that will actually take you all the way to where you want to go: your resort or hotel on Koh Chang itself. Most other Pattaya to Koh Chang services can't be bothered with actually taking you onto the island and will thus drop you off at the waiting room in the ferry port, from where it's still a long walk over cindering hot cement to the ferries; a difficult climb up the steep stairs while juggling your luggage and possibly children; a potentially very hot crossing to Koh Chang; the climb down; avoiding exiting cars, trucks and motorcycles, while rushing over more hot cement to try to get a seat in the half open converted pick up trucks that will eventually drop you off in your resort on Koh Chang, but not before servicing every other drop off point before your destination. These "Song Theaw" won't leave until there are enough passengers to make the ride economically viable either, so expect to wait an extra 45 minutes in quite seasons and be prepared to be seated like sardines in can during the busy season, or possibly even stand / hang on the back of one of these shared buses. Traveling with the properly air-conditioned Siam Resorts Minibuses minibus will ensure that you arrive fresh and relaxed at your destination, ready to be out on the beach within 15-30 minutes after landing on Ko Chang, without leaving the car even once, if you prefer.
Average distance from Pattaya to Koh Chang: 260 Km
Estimated travel time: 4.5 hours
Toll included in rate: Yes
Ferry crossing to island: Yes (ferry crossing < 45 minutes, ferries dept. every 45 minutes)
Ferry Tickets included with rate: Minibus: 4, Sedan: 2
Recommended places to stay: Siam Beach Resort Koh Chang & Siam Bay Resort Ko Chang
Possible stops with sights along the way:
- Swim with dolphins: Oasis Sea World in Laem Sing
- Namtok Phliu National Park waterfall, just off the highway in Chantaburi, near the Laem Sing exit
Type of vehicle: Toyota Commuter D4D minibus or Toyota Camry / Altis sedan
Number of passengers: Minibus: 7, Sedan: 2
Luggage space: Minibus: 7 suitcases + 7 overnight bags, Sedan: 2 suitcases + 3 overnight bags

Wayland theatre season to feature plenty of craziness
PLAINVIEW – Feeling a bit crazy these days? The season theatre lineup at Wayland Baptist University will feel right at home.
According to Dr. Marti Runnels, director of theatre and professor of theatre at Wayland, crazy is the prevailing theme for the annual Shorts IX: Depends on You production that kicks off the season, then the following plays just happened to deal with the theme in some manner.
An evening of short vignette plays, Shorts returns for the ninth year with lots of comedic takes on the theme of being crazy. A favorite of many, the evening involves many Wayland students, with theatre majors directing scenes and students performing in every role and technical position.
"There are scenes about people going to the psychiatrist and the like," Runnels said. "Our new musical theatre professor, Jeff Kensmoe, is going to be directing some musical theatre numbers between the shorts."
Shorts will run Sept. 23, 24, 29, 30 and Oct. 1, with show time at 8 p.m. in Harral Studio Theatre on the Wayland campus.
For the second fall production, Runnels has chosen Proof, a mystery drama by David Auburn that won the 2001 Tony Award on Broadway. Careful not to give away too much for audiences, Runnels said the play is about a woman trying to recover from the loss of her father, who was a mathematical genius.
Critics have hailed the play and its author. "This play combines the elements of mystery and surprise with old-fashioned storytelling to provide a compelling evening of theatre," wrote David Kaufman of the New York Daily News. Elysa Gardner of USA Today wrote, "The playwright traces the development of his characters and plot with a scientist's preciseness and a poet's lyricism."
Runnels will be directing Proof, which runs Nov. 11, 12, 17, 18, and 19 at 8 p.m.
The opening play for the spring semester will be A View from Here, a comedy by Margaret Dulaney and the homecoming production this year. Running Feb. 23, 24, 25 and March 3 and 4, 2006, the show coincides with Wayland homecoming, which is moving to the February weekend.
Senior theatre major Lisa Angel will direct the play as her senior practicum, and the show will be Wayland's entry to the Christian University Theatre Festival, being held here in Plainview in early March 2006.
Runnels said the show is about a woman with agoraphobia, the fear of public places.
"It's kind of in the spirit of The Foreigner and Daddy's Dyin,' Who's Got the Will?," Runnels said. "There's a lot of back woods humor to it. Despite its silliness, though, it has a romance and some warm, touching moments as well."
The final play of the season, a dinner theatre catered by Carino's, will be The Nerd. A comedy by Larry Shue (who also authored The Foreigner), The Nerd had Runnels rolling.
"It's one of the funniest things I've ever read," he said. "I laughed out loud all the way through it."
The plot involves a Vietnam soldier whose life is saved by a man he never met, who then writes the man to promise to repay the favor. He never hears from the man until his 34th birthday, when he arrives on the doorstep.
"It turns out the guy is a complete nerd and he just drives this guy crazy," Runnels said, noting there is a surprise ending to the play.
The Nerd runs April 20, 21, and 22 at 8 p.m., with dinner served at 7 p.m.
Season tickets for Wayland theatre are $40 per person, which includes each show and the full dinner theatre. Tickets can be purchased through the first production and may be obtained by calling the Box Office at 291-1087.

What is a Vision Impairment?
Vision impairment means that a person's eyesight cannot be corrected to a "normal" level. Vision impairment may be caused by a loss of visual acuity, where the eye does not see objects as clearly as usual. It may also be caused by a loss of visual field, or a changing or degenerative eye condition.
There are different ways of describing the severity of a person's vision loss. The World Health Organization defines "low vision" as visual acuity between 20/70 and 20/400, with the best possible correction, or a visual field of 20 degrees or less. "Blindness" is defined as a visual acuity worse than 20/400, with the best possible correction, or a visual field of 10 degrees or less. Someone with a visual acuity of 20/70 can see at 20 feet what someone with normal sight can see at 70 feet. Someone with a visual acuity of 20/400 can see at 20 feet what someone with normal sight can see at 400 feet. A normal visual field is about 160-170 degrees horizontally.
Vision impairment severity may be categorized differently for certain purposes. In the United States, for example, we use the term "legal blindness" to indicate that a person is eligible for certain education or federal programs. Legal blindness is defined as a visual acuity of 20/200 or worse, with the best possible correction, or a visual field of 20 degrees or less.
Visual acuity alone cannot tell you how much a person's life will be affected by their vision loss. It is important to also assess how well a person uses the vision they have. Two people may have the same visual acuity, but one may be able to use his or her vision better to do everyday tasks. Most people who are "blind" have at least some usable vision that can help them move around in their environment and do things in their daily lives.

Flower Bedroom Wallpaper.
Use only patterned coating on the wall just as a focal point, such as on the wall behind the bed. The selection of colors and patterns are very important. Bottom line, avoid crowded and many color motifs. Should be monochromatic and match with other colors in the room.

The blog has a hint of surrealism about it, in more ways than one, and we wanderers from the white chalk cliffs of Albion aren't as European as you. Good job we don't play you at University Challenge, we'd lose that annal (as well) nothing to with ones arse..
Speaking of results, after our recent visit, the 'match' is best forgotten as far as we Stags are concerned. All my careful jottings of the 'game' have been cast into oblivion and only surface when I have eaten cheese late at night. We stayed again at the Hotel DeBarca though I hear its going to change its name to the Hotel Debacle to reflect the Stags performance. Our hungover 'hero's', some with face's as green as their shirts (which cast off snooker tables did you get the material from Thompson?) formed up like lambs to the slaughter in the bright Pontevedrian sunlight. Overhead the sea gulls wheeled and cackled like airborne witches from the first act of the 'Scottish Play'. The rest is history, Thank God, apart from the victory ale served up by Serge in the usual hospitable manner by our Galician chums, I think it still lies resurgent in Clayton's lower colon to this day and comes up for air and a look at the outside world from time to time. More restful memories come to mind, the first intravenous infusion of Estrella Galicia (lovely girl) in a bar called the Trafalgar in Santigago almost had me doing a hornpipe while whistling a Mike Oldfield tune and dreaming of the great day's of the Royal Navy ie ships biscuit complete with weevils, fishing for fresh rats in the hold and rum, sodomy and the lash...
All those times back in Blighty where you visit a pub called the 'Bulls Head' and there ain't one. Back in PV and there's a bloody great one looking like its just charged through the wall in a position where we would have being seeing mice and tall rabbits called Harvey if we had lingered another forty eight hours. Curious toilet arrangements in a winebar, groaning platters of Galician Breakfasts with me casting a wary eye out for tuna, tapas par excellence, 6/% moorish beer served up by the Argie, late night sandwiches in PV, clean streets, civilised drinkers, Galician lasses with chic,not showing their thongs or tattoos, police you treat with respect, football with loads of passion and beer but no violence...
Paradise lost but not for long because we'll back. But its Sheffield's turn this May and the Porquos want some culture. Plans are a foot amigos (and it won't be the culture that comes out of a Petre dish either Thompson, the Lap Dancing place has closed down and there's no Hooters in Sheffield apart from that one that blows at one 'oclock).
Now I won't be able to match Victor and his rendering of the Galician anthem but when I stand on stage with me Vera Lynn tapes on there won't be a dry eye in the house (come to think of it there won't be anyone in the house because the last bus will have gone) Boroman has promised his speciality act playing bones and there's more. Just confirm those dates Porquos, after visiting Newcastle and the Bigg Market you'll appreciate some culture, how do you fancy some hot pork pies along with the Stoones down in Sheffield?
Till Then.

When a stock market bubble is about to burst, financial experts start using all the same words to describe what's going on, even if - especially if - those words are positive. Groupthink doesn't get much more perilous than this.
That's the finding of computer scientists at University College Dublin, who went through 18,000 articles by the Financial Times, New York Times, and the BBC to see what nouns and verbs financial analysts were using to describe the stock market. They found that, in the run-up to various market bubbles bursting, the experts all started using very similar language to describe what was going on, and these trends in word use correlate very closely with how the market actually performs.
Professor Mark Keane explains:
"By plotting the distributions of words used in financial articles published online between 2006 and 2010 into a computer model, we were able to identify what we call 'verb convergence' and 'noun convergence — where the language used by financial journalists shows converging agreement. Our study shows that reporters converge on the same language — 'stocks rose again', 'scaled new heights', or 'soared' — as their commentaries became more uniformly positive in the lead up to the 2007 crash. They also appear to refer to a smaller-than-usual set of market events — presumably because of an increased fixation on a small number of rapidly rising stocks.

Cliff: 000 000 000
Cliff tossed his NL-leading fifth shutout and Hunter delivered three hits and two RBI Thursday night in SF, a 3-0 series opening win for the Phillies.
Voting for the Cy Young Award in the NL this fall will be a tough one. Leading candidates have to be Doc, Cole and Cliff. There's never been a three-way tie.
Phillies are 51-15 when they score first . . . Saturday's game will be on FOX. Most of the country will see the Red Sox-Yankees game. Surprise! . . . Ricky Jordan attended Thursday's game. He'll be in Philly next weekend as part of Alumni Weekend that includes the unveiling of a Harry Kalas statue pre-game on Sunday . . . Alumni Luncheon for seniors on Thursday noon is sold out.
Down On The Farm
RHS Kevin Bass (6-8) gave up 2 runs in 7 innings as Lehigh Valley won, 5-3, at Durham . . . Reading and Harrisburg split 2-1 decisions, one of which was the conclusion of Wednesday's 1-1 game suspended after 8 by rain . . . 1B Darin Ruf collected his 35th and 36th doubles in Clearwater's 8-4 win over Tampa . . . Lakewood lost, 4-3, at Delmarva . . . LF Aaron Altherr homered for the third straight games (#5) as Williamsport was a 5-1 winner at Brooklyn . . . Gulf Coast League Phillies lost, 4-3, to the Blue Jays.
Alumni Views
What changes would you like to see in Major League Baseball is a question posed to Phillies Alumni. From time to time, will be posting their responses.
Steve Bedrosian, (RHP, 1986-89)
"I'm old-fashioned and don't like the DH. I like the fact pitchers have to hit. Managers need to do more thinking without the DH. Since the playoffs run longer every year and the World Series has spilled over to November, I don't believe more wildcard teams should be added. Instant replay as it stands is fine."
Today In Baseball
1921: First radio broadcast featured the Phillies at the Pirates, Pittsburgh winning, 8-5. Harold Arlin, a foreman at Westinghouse, broadcast the game on KDKA in Pittsburgh. He was stationed in a box seat in the stands.
Phillies' Cy Williams hit the first home run during a broadcast. According to current Cubs broadcaster Pat Hughes who wrote an article for the Baseball Hall of Fame, there was no recording of the first broadcast so we'll never know how Arlin called the home run.
Hughes is the proprietor of "Baseball Voices, the Hall of Fame Series" featuring commemorative audio tributes to the game's greatest announcers (www.baseballvoices.com).

Hverageroi is a small town of about 1,700 inhabitants that lies some 45 km east of Reykjavik. This friendly little community sits on top of a highly active geothermal field, which provides heat for hundreds of greenhouses where fruits, flowers and vegetables are produced throughout the year. Even bananas grow in these greenhouses The name Hverageroi means hot springs garden. Geothermal energy is Hverageroi s lifeblood, and you probably won t find such a natural wonder in the middle of a populated area anywhere else in the world. Nearby you will find an even more geothermally active site: Gufudalur, the lovely Steam Valley behind the town. This whole valley is full of hot springs, geysers, mud pots, fumaroles and steaming vents.Our host is a non-profit organisation called the NLFI Rehabilitation and Health Clinic, which is part of the Natural Health Association of Iceland. Every year approximately 2,000 patients and other guests enjoy their diverse rehabilitation programs, which are focused on an approach that builds self-confidence and personal responsibility for the patients own health. The clinic has earned a solid reputation, both in Iceland and internationally, since its foundation in 1955 for personal and effective care of patients. It is one of the two most important rehabilitation clinics in Iceland. In the last years this ongoing camp has been the most popular camp in our organisation.
Work: The Natural Health Association has a horticultural and environmental department, including forestry, gardening, and greenhouses, which is where Worldwide Friends volunteers work most of the time. Volunteers will help with growing tomatoes, cucumbers and making tea made of Icelandic herbs and also do some environmental work around the property. The nature of the work depends largely on weather conditions, which can change quickly. Volunteers should bring clothes appropriate for outdoor work, but also clothes for working inside the warm greenhouses. Working hours are usually from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and volunteers will have a one-hour lunch break. We will give a special focus on global warming during the camp and the volunteers will have workshops about climate change. The issue of global warming is well known all over the world. The humanity must act in a more environmentally friendly way. The main goal of this project is to improve the environmental education and consciousness of the projects participants. Within the project we will learn about green energy, sustainable householding, waste treatment, nutrition, the effects of consumption and lots more. If you want to change something, develop solutions or inspire others, you have to understand the issues and tasks first. Take part in this promising project and spring into action against climate change
Accomodation and food: Worldwide Friends volunteers will be staying in a fully equipped bungalow consisting of several single and/or double bedrooms and a living room. Volunteers need to bring their own sleeping bag, but beds and sheets are provided. Wireless internet access is provided free of charge.Food is included for the duration of the workcamp, however, everyone is expected to do their fair share of the cooking and cleaning. Since it is always nice to try new and different dishes, volunteers are encouraged to bring along their favourite recipes from home
Location: HVERAGERDI
Location and Leisure: Worldwide Friends volunteers have free access to the local geothermally heated swimming pool. Traditionally, natural pools have played an important social role in Icelandic culture. Most Icelandic pools offer indoor and outdoor swimming, as well as hot tubs and saunas or steam rooms. Hverageroi is known for having great areas for hiking, including the hot river in Reykjadalur.WF Iceland will also organise reasonably priced weekend excursions to some of the most popular, beautiful areas and natural wonders that Iceland can offer. Excursions include unique Icelandic sights, such as glacial lagoons, waterfalls, volcanic and geothermal areas, glaciers, geysers, lava forests, hot-springs, rhyolite mountain ranges, steam-vents or even icebergs. Take a look at http://wf.is/excursions/ We will also focus on intercultural learning and exchange. Every evening, volunteers from different countries will present their country of origin and culture in an informal way. It can be a presentation, a game, theatre i the form of introduction is up to you Therefore, we encourage you to bring along some food, photos or anything interesting related to your country for a fun and informative evening amongst other volunteers. This workcamp gives you the opportunity to spend an amazing time in Iceland with other international volunteers and to have an incredible experience where participants share their knowledge with each other while exploring creativity, environmental issues and intercultural learning.
