Girls Eastern Swimming Championships: Backstroke sweep helps Episcopal finish second
PHILADELPHIA — When Episcopal Academy's Emma Seiberlich looked up at the scoreboard after her 100 backstroke swim Saturday, a look of astonishment was pasted on her face.
It wasn't caused by her time — though those spurred plenty of grins of amazement this weekend.
"At first I didn't realize it," the eighth-grader said. "I knew Sarah (Baturka) had finished third, but I wasn't sure who was second. Then I remembered that Emily (Rhodes) was in lane 6 and I saw that it was her. I was so happy and excited."
Further cementing EA's status as one of the East Coast's elite swim programs, the Churchmen trio of Seiberlich, Baturka and Rhodes pulled an impressive 1-2-3 finish, leading to a second-place team finish in the Eastern Interscholastic Championships at La Salle's Kirk Natatorium.
There was no catching Germantown Academy, which set the pace with 543 points, punctuated by a national record from the 400 free relay team of Shannon McKernan, Meagan Dollard, Madison Visco and Rachel Zilinskas.
But there were plenty of highlights in the Churchmen's 395 points, perhaps foremost among them Seiberlich.
Her preliminary time in the 100 backstroke of 55.72 seconds was within a half-second of the county record set by three-time Daily Times swimmer of the year Sarah Baturka last year. You know, when Baturka was senior.
Seiberlich followed that with a 55.88 in finals, a phenomenal time that put her more than a body length clear of Baturka (57.67) in the adjacent lane. Somehow, swimming from lane six with the final seed, Rhodes managed to bring some "outside smoke" to wedge between those times in 57.38, a drop of .99 from her morning swim.
"I did not expect to get second at all," Rhodes said. "I thought I might get up to fifth and squeeze up a spot. But second's not too bad. I'll take it."
Those were hardly the only highlights. After swimming to within a whisker of the A final, Bernadette Tankle gutted out another tremendous swim in the 500 free to take eighth in 5:02.74. Her seed time at the beginning of the meet was 5:11. And in the 100 breaststroke, the Churchmen grabbed fourth and fifth with McKenzie Street and Rachel Repke, respectively. Continued...
Seiberlich wasn't done, as she had enough left in the tank to lead EA to the fastest relay time in county history. She split 52.65 off the front, just a half-second slower than the Delco record for the 100 free that has stood since 1988, and handed off to Baturka, Tankle and Tara O'Prey to bring it home in 3:30.36, a cut of almost a second and a half from prelims and good for second.
It was an emphatic way to close the meet, and for O'Prey, a storied career.
"It was the last four laps of my high school career," said O'Prey, who split a 52.46. "I knew that it was close, and I didn't know if Peddie (third place in the team standings) would've been able to catch us in the relay. But I knew I wasn't letting them."

I spent the better part of the best years of my life writing about college football (and for that, they pretty much turned out to be the most unhappy years of my life), so like it or not, I'm subjecting you to my thoughts from each week's action. DEAL WITH IT.
Games I Watched
Notre Dame 50, Navy 10
- After years of working as a credentialed beat writer covering Navy athletics, I've come to mentally cringe every time Navy plays in a game on national television (read: not CBSCS.) Like the Army-Navy game and every ESPN game, the attention paid to the Navy football team bordered more on what it represents than what it is. We all know the clichés about hard-work and physicality and being great student athletes and Americans; but can we actually talk about what's going on on the field?
- What was going on on the field was about what I expected. Scratch that, it was worse. I somehow forced myself to watch the entire game, but between seeing the Navy defensive front give more ground than the Polish cavalry against the Blitzkrieg and Trey Miller taking snaps from the shotgun, I nearly lost my sanity.
- If Navy can't find a way to commit to running the actual triple option with, key phrase, the first option (fullback dive) being established, it's going to be a long season. After hearing all about him all summer, it was disappointing to see that Noah Copeland was a complete non-factor.
- Gary Danielson said some absolutely stupid things during the broadcast, but he hit the nail on the head when he summed up how the Navy coaches handled the end of the first half. Try's fumble killed any spark the team might have been able to recover, and not taking a time out to give Miller a breather wasted a gutsy performance from first-year starter.
- If I'm a Notre Dame fan (and I am, kind of) I am feeling pretty good. I know most Navy fans hate the Irish, but as a Catholic and as someone who enjoys the play of real or semi-real student athletes, I can't help but pull for the school against most opponents. Not Navy, mind you, but pretty much everything else. I thought the Irish O and D-lines were dominant, and hope Saturday wasn't all on Navy just sucking.
Ohio 24, Penn State 14
- The people I discuss college football with tend to think Penn State's football program should be banished like those dudes in the floating mirror in outerspace from that one Superman movie, but my thoughts are more conflicted. Seeing Beaver Stadium on Saturday, and seeing the emotion in the eyes of the Penn State athletes, I'd be lying if I said a part of me was not pulling for them.
- Of course, I was also pulling for Ohio, which I like for no other reason than the combination of Tyler Tettleton and Beau Blankenship. What can I say? As a short white dude myself, I tend to have a politically incorrect tendency to pull 5-foot-8 white running backs. SUE ME.
- Looking at some of the other MAC teams which played major BCS opponents Saturday (and looking at their collapses) I attribute Ohio's success to one factor; coaching. Frank Solich is the kind of guy who can keep a team of 21 year-old cool and collected. Even when down, his plauers knew they could win the game, and didn't press. Lucky bounces, I think, often go towards the team which stays composed. And a composed, well coached team can make some serious noise later in the season.
Utah State 34, Southern Utah 3
- I don't think anyone who closely follows USU — not the least of whom is this former Aggie Sports Editor — was surprised at the play of Joe Hill. We Aggie fans have been spoiled with Robert Turbin and Michael Smith for the last four years, but any one keeping an eye on the pipeline knew their was talent behind them. Kerwynn – we called him 'Hey Arnold' when I was in Logan because they teased him for having a football shaped head – was solid, and both he and Hill will keep the Aggie ground game humming. Both are fast, shifty, and have great vision, but their surprising power will catch teams off gaurd all year. Oh yea, Chuckie Keeton was pretty swell, too, and don't overlook that offensive line.
- Matt Austin might just be the most fundamentally sound wide receiver in the country when it comes to body country and sideline awareness. And no, that's not a homeristic statement.
- I was worried how the offense would look in terms of tempo and design with Dave Baldwin moving on to Colorado State, but Matt Wells seems to have everything under control. The thing I love about the "power spread" and the way USU runs it is it keeps other teams so off-tempo. Baldwin used to tell me the offense "is complex, not complicated," and I like the way he describes it. With all the different packages and formations, it makes defenses play off-balance, and imposes a north-south but also east-west hurry-up style of play on you. The most important thing for USU moving forward will be ball control. If that can be maintained, there's no reason this offense can't be Xbox good this year.
Stock Report
Stock up:
FOX: Gus Johnson calls every game like it's March Madness. Pair him with Charles Davis, who might just be the most intelligent play-by-play guy in all of college football commentary-dom, and you've got the most underrated announcing duo this side of the Joe Tessitore effect.
Nebraska's running game: Ok, so it was Southern Miss. But the 278 yards (6.2 per) on the ground was impressive given the fact that Heisman candidate Rex Burkhead took to the sideline after only three carries (albeit, one for along touchdown). Ameer Abdullah showed some toughness between the tackles, but most of all, Taylor Martinez looked like he actually knew what he was doing with both his feet and his arm. And later in the season, with Burkhead back and hopefully healthy, you've got to think the latter part of that statement will open up thinks for the run game.
Turner Gill: When he was back at Buffalo, Turner Gill was the first FBS head football coach I met and interviewed. At the time, my credentials were that I had graduated high school and had once written a blog about Navy football. Yea, impressive stuff, I know. Yet the man treated me like a veteran, and at that Buffalo practice I attended, I saw first hand the kind of program that Gill looked to create. Most people know he struck out at Kansas, but few know he just coached his first FCS game. And while his Liberty Flames came up a dropped pass short of upending Wake Forest in week one, something tells me the efforts of first-time starter Brian Hudson will have Liberty staying near the top of FCS competition.
Stock Down:
ESPN: I think I saw an Obama commercial between each TV timeout. Never mind for a second that I'm a conservative and consider this; isn't the beauty of the college football season the fact that we can (kind of) ignore this politics stuff? Way to spoil a Saturday, ESPN.
Savannah State: I'm sure it's a fine place to go to college and all, but how would you like to be the kid who has to respond to "yea, the team that was blown out 84-0 by Oklahoma State" when explaining where you go to college? Week One games are usually ugly. Like Battle of Hoth ugly. But this was the equivalent of the Death Star blowing up Alderaan.
Navy's Use of the Shotgun: Did I mention how much I sincerely dislike it?

When asked about the upcoming "American Idol" tour, featuring the top contestants, Phillips told Hollywood Life that he won't miss it.
"No, no, no. I am excited for the tour," he told Hollywood Life.
Best wishes and a speedy recovery to Phillip Phillips, the new "American Idol!"

Argentina ended their debut in the Rugby Championship on a disappointing note, a 19-25 loss to Australia in Rosario.
After the early promise they showed, especially the draw with South Africa, this was by far their worst performance of the season.
The Pumas looked very lethargic, almost complacent, at the start of the game. They conceded seven penalties and a yellow card in the first quarter, while their options were also very poor.
The standards in general in this game were well below par and showed how much better New Zealand are than the rest
Jan de Koning rates the Argentinean players!
15 Lucas Gonzalez Amorosino:
His field kicks were rather ordinary and he made poor decisions. Had a couple of decent runs.
14 Gonzalo Camacho:
There was a great tackle on Digby Ioane to stop a dangerous Wallaby move and he looked dangerous with the few times he got ball in hand. However, he also lost the ball in a tackle.
13 Marcelo Bosch:
Several runs, without making much ground. Took over the goal-kicking duties in the second half and landed crucial conversion. Steady rather than spectacular.
12 Santiago Fernandez:
He made all his tackles, but otherwise had no impact on the game.
11 Horacio Agulla:
Penalised in the tackle early on, but then worked hard on defence and was solid.
10 Juan Martin Hernandez:
Had some early success as a goal-kicker, but missed two kickable goals late in the first half. His out-of-hand kicks were not always as accurate - poor by his standards.
9 Martin Landajo:
Mostly a link and missed a number of tackles. His decision-making was poor and generally poor day at the office.
8 Juan Martin Fernandez Lobbe (captain):
Great on the restarts, made his tackles and took line-out ball. A very high workrate as usual and one of the few Pumas who could hold his head high.
7 Juan Manuel Leguizamon:
Conceded a silly penalty, but then put in a great touchfinder that drive Aussies back to their 22. Had an enormous tackle count and it was a surprise when he was replaced early in the second half.
6 Julio Farias Cabello:
Mostly reduced to a defensive role and struggled with ball control. They may well have replaced the wrong flank early in the second half.
5 Patricio Albacete:
Conceded penalties on the ground and was then yellow carded for repeated infringements. It didn't get any better in the second half.
4 Manuel Carizza:
Spilled the ball in contact. Made a few tackles and took his line-out balls, but was largely quiet.
3 Juan Figallo:
Other than scrumming did not offer much.
2 Eusebio Guinazu:
His best aspect was his defence. However, there was one crucial line-out throw on attack that went awry.
1 Rodrigo Roncero:
Still a strong scrummager, but at times the old body struggled to stay up with the pace of the game. Had one really strong run in the second half. We decided to give him full marks for a glittering career - it is our parting gift for the veteran prop, who retired after the game. (His rating in this game would have been 6/10)
16 Agustin Creevy (on for Eusebio Guinazu, 63rd min):
A few runs, but no real impact.
17 Juan Pablo Orlandi (on for Juan Figallo, 70th min):
Not enough time to be rated.
18 Leonardo Senatore (on for Julio Alfredo Farias Cabello, 74th min):
Not enough time to be rated.
19 Tomas Leonardi (on for Juan-Manuel Leguizamón, 47th min):
It was a big mistake to bring him on. They took of pone of their best players, who was visibly upset.
20 Nicolas Vergallo:
Not used.
21 Nicolas Sanchez (on for Juan Martin Hernández, 60th min):
Failed to provide the sparked that lacked in the Puma backline.
22 Juan Imhoff (on for Horacio Agulla, 67th min):
Got a late try that kept Puma hopes alive, but not enough time to be rated.

Event Recap: AMA Multicultural SIG on Mobile Marketing
Submitted by Kate Nilsen, Blue Sky Marketing
The American Marketing Association Houston Chapter's Multicultural group put together a panel of experts on Hispanic and mobile marketing to participate in an open discussion about what is working and what isn't in reaching Hispanics via mobile — smartphones as well as tablets. We found that many takeaways from the event could also be applied to the general market as well.
The speakers participating were Isabel Rafferty of Adsmovil in Los Angeles, Alvaro Cabal of Ford Motor Company in Dallas and Shervin Kalinia of Hand Held Page in Houston. The discussion was moderated by Cynthia Cisneros, VP of Community Affairs at KTRK ABC-13. Here are a few statistics, trends and tips that the speakers shared with the audience.

BioCleanse Powder by Biogenesis is a comprehensive support supplement for detoxifications and gastrointestinal health. 1.63 lbs/ 741 g
When your patient can benefit from a comprehensive cleansing program, try BioCleanse for positive results. BioCleanse is designed to help the body rid itself of toxins. These toxins may be metabolic waste or they may be environmental, such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, drug residues, etc. BioCleanse is a state-of-the-art system designed to remove toxins from the nervous system and connective and fatty tissues. After removal, BioCleanse assists your liver in neutralizing and removing them from the body. It does this by assisting the liver's Phase 1 and Phase 2 detoxification pathways. BioCleanse helps the liver convert an insoluble toxin, which is difficult to remove, to a more soluble toxin. Because BioCleanse assists the body and the liver in a deep cleansing, the whole treatment is smooth and relatively easy to accomplish. In fact, the balanced proportions of protein, carbohydrate, and fats help keep blood sugar levels and energy up. A typical detox program can last anywhere from 17 to 33 days.
BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE B VITAMINS are taken up and used "as is" by the cells of the body. They place no burden on the liver to phosphorylate them or on the kidneys to eliminate them. In contrast, biologically inactive B vitamins must go through an activation process, which takes place in the liver. Unfortunately, most products supply their B vitamins in the inactive form. These are rapidly removed from the blood stream by the kidneys and excreted from the body leaving little time for the liver to convert them into active forms. Biologically active B vitamins take part in numerous chemical processes including detoxification.
MINERALS are critical to your health and to your body's ability to properly detoxify.However, for minerals to be of any therapeutic benefit, you must absorb them. Unlike many products, BioCleanse does not cut costs here. In BioCleanse, you will find only the best, fully bonded mineral transporters available. These carriers provide the highest absorption and transportation to key sites in the body where each mineral can support the cells' health and detoxification capacity.
SPECIALTY NUTRIENTS are present in clinically relevant levels to provide additional antioxidant/anti-inflammatory protection and to support both Phase 1 and Phase 2 detoxification pathways in the liver.
N-ACETYL L-CYSTEINE (NAC) is a form of the amino acid L-cysteine. It acts as an antioxidant by promoting the production of glutathione, a detoxification molecule. NAC protects against lipid hydroperoxidases and hydrogen peroxide radicals.
TAURINE assists the liver in Phase 2 detoxification by contributing to the conjugation of xenobiotic compounds. This role of taurine is essential in neutralization and clearance of toxins.
SODIUM SULFATE provides essential sulfur for sulfation conjugation detoxification processes in the liver. This is especially important for persons with impaired detoxification capacity. Often these individuals cannot convert organic sulfur (cysteine, methionine, etc.) into inorganic sulfur (sodium sulfate) efficiently. Inorganic sulfur is necessary for sulfation conjugation activity.
L-CYSTEINE AND METHYL SULFONYL METHANE (MSM) supply additional organic sulfur for sulfoxidation support and as a source for additional inorganic sulfur production.
CALCIUM D-GLUCARATE supports the process by which healthy cells eliminate waste and foreign elements. It does this by regulating the activity of the enzyme beta-glucuronidase. In this way, it supports the glucuronidation detoxification cellular cleansing process.
SILYMARIN has been shown to increase glutathione and superoxide dismutase levels. Silymarin protects the liver from free radical damage and enhances repair and regeneration of liver cells.

I have already gone through one container of this, and just ordered a second. I have this in a fruit smoothie I make each morning for breakfast, and I have honestly never felt better than I do right now. More energy throughout the day, and all in all more even. Highly recommended! (Posted on 10/17/12)

Occupational therapist Alaa Festok has become the first Qatari man and only the second Qatari national to pass the United States-based National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) examination. Festok, who joined Hamad Medical Corporation's (HMC) Rumailah Hospital in 2010, is now a US-Registered Occupational Therapist (OTR).
Festok chose occupational therapy as a career after training at HMC. "I read an article in the newspaper about a program for Qatari high school graduates interested in a career in rehabilitation. HMC took about ten people and trained us in rehabilitation services such as physical, occupational and speech therapy," said Festok, adding that he worked with a colleague from Nigeria who helped his interest in the field to grow.
"After two years of training, HMC sponsored my education in the USA, which I am very grateful for," said Festok, who became eligible to take the examination after completing his Masters of Occupational Therapy from Saint Louis University in 2009 – the first Qatari man to acquire this degree from a US university.
The NBCOT examination is based on a comprehensive practice analysis that determines critical knowledge, skills and abilities of occupational therapists. The NBCOT provides a world-class standard for certification of occupational therapy practitioners. It develops, administers and continually reviews a certification process that reflects current standards of competent practice in the field.
Now working full time in the Hand Therapy Unit at HMC, Festok is one of 13 occupational therapists caring for 125-150 patients per day, most with work-related or road accident-related injuries. He also wants to pass on his own learning and enthusiasm to his colleagues.
Festok encourages fellow Qataris to explore possible careers in healthcare and pursue whatever interests them. "HMC may consider supporting them financially if they have good grades and show that they are willing to learn," he said.
"We are proud to have Alaa here with us," said Sultan Salem Hammam Al-Abdullah, Chief of the Occupational Therapy Department, adding that Festok also plans to go for the prestigious Certified Hand Therapist (CHT) credential after the required five years of specialized practice as a hand therapist. Al-Abdullah and Festok are among five Qatari occupational therapists currently practicing in Qatar, four of whom work at HMC.
"Being an OTR basically assures the public that the occupational therapist who is treating them has reached a certain standard of competency," said Monique LeBlanc, Acting Supervisor of the Hand Therapy Unit. LeBlanc explained that the OTR is a required qualification for all occupational therapists practicing in the USA. "Alaa's eagerness to learn and dedication to the unit make him a valuable asset to HMC."
Al-Abdullah and LeBlanc underscored the importance of Qatari nationals' involvement in healthcare for the country's development, as well as in terms of providing culturally competent care to the growing population. "It is difficult for patients when they cannot communicate clearly and oftentimes language can cause some communication barriers. So to have a Qatari on the team who is able to communicate with the patients and understand them on a cultural level is very comforting for the patients."
LeBlanc further commended the excellent support extended by HMC for Qatari staff in terms of professional development, helping them to pursue continuing education and become certified in their area of interest.

Emmy Nomination Preview 2011 - Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama
With four 2010 nominees gone, can Walton Goggins or John Noble move up?
Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Drama Series
Last Year's Nominees:
Aaron Paul, "Breaking Bad"
Martin Short, "Damages"
Terry O'Quinn, "Lost"
Michael Emerson, "Lost"
John Slattery, "Mad Men"
Andre Braugher, "Men of a Certain Age"
Attrition: This is one of the most wide-open categories on the Emmy ballot. "Breaking Bad" and "Damages" both missed the Emmy-qualifying calendar year, while "Lost" concluded its run last spring. That means this category is missing its defending champ (Paul), plus three other nominees. And even Slattery and Braugher don't necessarily seem like sure things to return. This gallery could have included 50 contenders, all with some reasonable claim either on my interest or on a plausible nomination. And the category's biggest question: How hard will Emmy voters have to work to exclude "Fringe" co-star John Noble.

June 16, 2011 at 3:18AM EST Reply to Comment
Much tougher than the Supporting Actress category. Again, I don't watch "The Good Wife" because it isn't my type of show.
That being said, my nominees (in no particular order):
John Slattery (Mad Men)
Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones)
Walton Goggins (Justified)
John Noble (Fringe)
Michael Raymond-James (Terriers)
Michael B. Jordan (Friday Night Lights)
I have to give an honorable mention to Andre Braugher (Men of a Certain Age). I originally had 11 actors. After I cut it down, I was let with Braugher and the six above. Cutting Braugher was difficult, but this was my reasoning:
Slattery, Dinklage, Goggins, and Noble are uncuttable for me based on how incredible they are in their roles. While Jordan, Raymond-James, and Braugher are just a step below, I believe that Jordan and Raymond-James are accomplished more in their roles because of the degree of difficulty.
Anyone agree?-
GuyITC Besides the couple of typos ("let should be "left" and "are" should be "have"), I should also add that my winner would be John Noble.
June 16, 2011 at 3:22AM EST -
Mandrake1979 Yes definitely Terriers should get some kind of respect. Great show. But I think that John Noble is just amazing to watch especially how he has played two version of the same character and made them so distinct from one another.

I think the Emmy voters are going to try to push network dramas this year. Therefore I think that The Good Wife and Parenthood will get more nominations and wins than predicted.
I also don't understand how John Noble can be considered a supporting actor. If he isn't physically on screen there isn't a moment where Peter, Olivia or Astrid are not thinking about or mentioning Walter's name. His story is so central to the Fringe mythos as well. I just don't understand how he can be considered supporting.
Also, can anyone explain the rules for how people can submit for Guest Actor when they are clearly a member of the regular cast of a show?-
dan Tausif - Peter and Olivia are the leads on "Fringe." And even Joshua Jackson is submitted as supporting, so really Anna Torv is the star of "Fringe" and, if you think about it, that's pretty much the case.
June 16, 2011 at 1:28PM EST
Anyway, as for the Guest/Supporting thing, lots of actors who seem like regular or at least recurring stars on shows are just "guest stars" for contractual reasons. That's how a John Lithgow or a Julia Stiles or a Jimmy Smits can appear in EVERY episode (or nearly every episode) of a "Dexter" season and then become Guest Star Emmy contenders...
But a lot of the Emmy categories are simply self-submitting and self-regulating and thus they become a mess...

Great recipe. Only a few things I would change. Maybe add a bit of clove and pumpkin pie spice for more flavor. We also added a bit more pumpkin cuz we love it!! We used whip cream to top them instead of syrup, amazing! We added a few chocolate chips to a few of them just to see what they would taste like. They were the best of the batch! Definitely would recommend this recipe to others!!

As many other reviewers commented, these turned out gummy, almost pasty tasting. In addition to the texture, the flavor was lacking something, perhaps more sweetness or spice. I added toasted walnuts to our batch but will not make these again. My pancake loving kids didn't even care for them.

Making them the way it was directed they failed. Burned because they wouldn't cook through. I then lowered my heat to med-low and then put a lid on my skillet. This made them "steam cook" in a way. Turned out fluffy and light. Also I omitted the oil. You don't really need it in this recipe. I used a pumpkin spread instead of syrup. This was almost like a desert. Delicious.

Sony just announced a little bass for your face—ok a lot of bass for your face. The company's new Extra Bass headphone series promises a bass boost in both headband-type and earbud models.
The MDR-XB800, MDR-XB600 and MDR-XB400 all have something called Advanced Direct Vibe Structure, which promises that extra bass. The MDR-XB800 and MDR-XB600 feature soft, pressure-relieving ear cushions and a wrap-around feel. Both also boast an acoustic seal, to keep sound in. All three models have a folding design for travel and a cord that's designed to keep tangles to a minimum.
The MDR-XB60EX is the in-ear model, with 13.5mm drivers and the same Advanced Direct Vibe Structure. Each pair of these comes with four sizes of earbuds for a nice fit, and three for noise-isolation features. It also has the same type of cord and its own carrying case.
"Sony's sound engineers are committed to providing an unprecedented level of audio performance," said Andrew Sivori, vice president of the Personal Audio Division at Sony Electronics. "Our new Extra Bass lineup of headphones delivers solid low frequency response, enhancing the signature of today's music styles."
Sony is selling the MDR-XB800, MDR-XB600, MDR-XB400 and MDR-XB60EX now. Look for the headphone models to be priced at $149.99, $99.99, $59.99 and $99.99, respectively.

Tom Cruise Latest Victim of Celebrity Swatting
Usually when the words "shots fired" are linked to Tom Cruise, it's in the context of a big-budget action movie. Not so Thursday, when Beverly Hills police surrounded the actor's home just before noon in response to an emergency call that turned out to be yet another "swatting" hoax.
After receiving a report of an armed robbery in progress, police surrounded the home, according to L.A. Now.
However, "no emergency was discovered," the Beverly Hills Police Department said in a news release. "Neither Mr. Cruise nor his family were home when the emergency was reported."
The call didn't originate from inside the home, police said. The only folks there at the time were security officers and a cook, police told TMZ.
Recent swatting incidents at the homes of Ashton Kutcher and Justin Bieber have been linked to a 12-year-old Southern California boy who was arrested Dec. 10, police told L.A. Now. An incident at Miley Cyrus' house did not appear to be the work of the same suspect, police said.
"We take these incidents very seriously because of the tremendous potential for something tragic to occur," LAPD Cmdr. Andrew Smith told L.A. Now in the wake of the boy's arrest, regarding swatting in general.
The incident at Cruise's house was being investigated as a crime because of the false report, Beverly Hills police said.

A movement to push back high school start times so that teens can get more sleep has been brewing across the country and right here in Maryland.
In board of education hearings and council meetings from Florida to Minnesota to Washington, parents and students are pleading their cases and governments are taking note.
In December, the Superintendent of Montgomery County Schools established a work group to study the issue and residents of Anne Arundel County have also asked their local officials to consider starting high school later.
Take a look at some of those links, sort through the pros, cons, research and emotions and let us know -- do you think high schools should start later?
Vote in our poll and let us know what you think in the comments.

I guess when they get to college we will start classes at noon so they get enough sleep. Then the workday after college would start at 2pm so they get enough sleep? Enough coddling and enabling and make them grow up to be responsible adults and not enlarge the entitlement generation!
Brook Hubbard
4:16 pm on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
You mean like the responsible adults from generations before who had school start times of 8 a.m. or 9 a.m.?
School start times does not correlate with "responsible adults". School start times ~does~ correlate with negative psychological and physiological development. This isn't about coddling, this is about recognizing a legitimate health and educational issue and doing something about it.

Brook, I went to Howard High School here in Howard County and graduated in the early 1980's. We started school at 7:30, not 8 or 9 like you want to believe. Middle school began at 8:15 and elementary at 9:15.
Brook Hubbard
10:41 pm on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
And I attended high school in Prince George's County and our start time was 8:15 a.m. What's your point?
You made a generalization that children who get up later aren't growing up to be responsible adults. That statement was refuted by the fact that there are plenty of people who went to school at later times than today. The times I gave were from anecdotes of the 1960's. Your generalization suggests that people from those era's are not responsible, because their later start time coddled them and didn't prepare them for the adult workday.

I agree with you Dave. Maybe we graduated from the same Howard Class? 1976 :) I was not referring to any other counties or states regarding thier School Start times in any of my posts. I am and was referring to what I know and that is Howard County and only Howard County. But gotta wonder how the Private school kids (Middle and High School) fair so well when they have to be driven to a bus stop... for example Lotto Plaza... at 6:15 in the morning to catch a bus for a 40 minute ride to school. Seems like all the extra awake time is paying off . just saying.

If this school system was a poor performer then it would be reasonable to assess all aspects of the program, including the start time of school. It's not a poor performer so why are you trying to mess with it. If parents would be parents & take accountability for their kids' whereabouts and limit their electronics in the evening (TV, iPad, iPod, iTouch, computer, cell phone, etc.) their minds would relax so they can go to sleep at a normal hour. Do you remember when you used to read a book before going to bed...it's relaxing! It is ridiculous that our tax dollars are being spent on this. Why doesn't HCPSS spend our money figuring out how to get rid of the 1% poor performing teachers they have? That would be a more productive use of OUR MONEY. It's all about accountability.
Terri McCulley Hicks
11:25 am on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
YES...I applaud your comment especially about our schools and poor performance. Its not broke so lets just shake the money tree!!! Howard County spends too much time on Studies that just drain the funds we could be using to help the kids who can't pass these ridculous tests or need help with just plain learning the basics. Pay me to do this study...I would just make an event on FB and take a poll. No $$$ and no problem. :)

"If parents would be parents & take accountability for their kids' whereabouts and limit their electronics in the evening (TV, iPad, iPod, iTouch, computer, cell phone, etc.) their minds would relax so they can go to sleep at a normal hour."
Except this statement is 100% FALSE according to science. Whether you like the science or not is irrelevant; the average teenager does not enter their sleep cycle until well after 10 p.m., regardless of what their mind is doing.
"It is ridiculous that our tax dollars are being spent on this."
Why is it ridiculous to determine if the health of our students is at risk? What if others with kids in this school system want to know what they have assessed? And exactly how much of "your" tax dollars is going toward this assessment? Could you show us how much of "your" tax dollars is going into this specific task? What exactly is the cost of the assessment, seeing as the majority of research has already been performed without costing Howard County a dime?

NO. Howard County has gotten soft and spoiled. Kids now days have more resources, better technology and support systems to be successful then we did years ago. Things are more accessable. So what if they go to bed at 10:00 but thier interal clock/ makeup causes them to lay awake until 11:00. Think this is something new??? Go to bed with a book like we did. Our internal clocks were the same except we had to get up and do chores before we road the bus for 40 mins to school. Stop being soft. If they want to be on social media until all hours of the morning starting later is not going to change that. Kids Toughen up...Parents Wake up. Stop with the excuses!!!Good Choices and habits make Kids successful. State funding and money should go to help kids that need it, not to studies like this. They find an excuse for everything by having Physcologist call poor behavior or attitudes A Condition or A Syndrome or Studies Show. Take all that money being spent on studies like this and put it to good use making things better for kids who need extra help learning especially with all these stupid testings. Starting early prepares thier bodies, minds and attitudes for when they enter the REAL WORLD of workingduring or after High School or College. Or maybe you should study to see if EMPLOYERS should adjust work times to accommodate sleepy teens/adults coming out of High School and College. just my opinion!
Brook Hubbard
4:33 pm on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
According to your thought process...
1) Who cares if something is bad for you... suck it up and deal with the consequences.
2) Anyone who didn't go through what you (supposedly) went through is soft.
3) Tax dollars should only go to what you think it should, not to anything that professionals in that field think it should.
4) Science is a bunch of garbage that just makes people soft. Only your personal perceptions of the "real world" matter when making decisions.
The saddest thing is that people like you actually believe this... which probably is the best explanation for the current state of things. -_-

Brook, Why so rude? You attack views of people on this issue as well as others I have read. Early Start time may have made you a bit cranky. In response to your remark about me, I believe people who try to intimidate others are the reason for the current state of things in our County and Country. Leave a comment but don't be a bully!!! Its obvious you didn't grow up or attend school in HoCo. My family goes back generations in HoCo and my Mom taught school for 28 yrs here.Your statement about recognizing a legitimate health issue and educational issues...WELL, I can't recall hearing a kid die or fail because of Early School start time. And FYI...I never said "Only my personal perspective of the REAL WORLD matters when making decisions". What I said is "Early Start times prepare kids for the REAL WORKING WORLD. Living here and working in Washington, Frederick. PA.or over Bay Bridge, you get up at 5:00 or 6:00 to make it to work by 8:00. Early start prepares these kids that is unless you're someone who jumps from job to job with no direction. One last thing, I believe Science and Studies are not always right and they sometimes are manipulated for the sake of $$. I work and have since I was 12 so my TAX dollars do pay for these things. Its called FUNDING!!! Some Professionals are just book smart and money driven.They lack common sense and responsibility to all of us and that there lies the rub. I'm Moving on and respect your opinion as long as you are civil. Just my Opininon.
Brook Hubbard
11:52 pm on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
Who's being a bully? I'm pointing out the irrationality of being presented with scientific evidence and then choosing to ignore said evidence because it doesn't fit your personal perception. If pointing out the truth is considered rude, then I suppose I'm the biggest jerk around.
You can throw out all the anecdotes you want about how you went to school, what your mom did, what the "real working world" is like, etc. Of course, for every anecdote you throw out I can throw out ones that contradict it. School? 8:15 a.m. start time for me. Work? 9:00 a.m. start time for me. What does any of this prove? Nothing... anecdotes mean absolutely nothing, so we have to look at the research on the topic.
This isn't just a Howard Co. issue; Howard Co. is not some magic place where things work differently from the rest of the country (or world). So pointing out whether my anecdotes involve Howard Co. is irrelevant.
Brook Hubbard
11:57 pm on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
So, science and studies are not always right? Science provides the best answer with the facts we have. When it is wrong it is because a professional educated in the field proved it was wrong. Are you such a professional? Can you provide research countering that which was been provided?
These things are manipulated for money? Please explain what money is to be made by this. Or are you just paranoid and throwing out flimsy theories and fallacious attacks because you can't provide a good reason?
Just your opinion? Well, you're entitled to your opinion... but you're not entitled to facts. And the facts remain, studies across the United States (not just your localized sample you're claiming) show that early start times have a negative effect on overall development and education. You talk about a lack of common sense, but ignoring overwhelming evidence because you don't like it or believe in it is just that.

Just got up for work to read how Brook, the world renowned expert on School Start Times doesn't think she is a bully!
Well Terri, I don't know about being a bully, but she certainly doesn't think that any opinions coming across this page but hers are correct. Like you Terri, I have been a lifelong resident here and I feel you are spot on with this subject.
Brook, while someone has done a "study" that shows your point to be the case, I am sure there are other "studies" that say they aren't bogus.
I do have a question for you however. Where did you go to High School? Was it here in this county or in this area? Be honest please as I am not attacking you just wondering where you are coming from.
Brook Hubbard
8:25 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
What does it matter where I went to school? The effect of early school start times is not specific to Howard County, so why should it matter? Do you believe that Howard County is some magical school district where the laws of biology are different than the rest of the country (or world)? (For your information, you can find out where I went to school as it was stated in an earlier post.)
You keep claiming that there are "studies" that disprove the ones everyone else has posted. Please provide them! You want to have an intelligent discussion, then use logic and critical thought. We have provided scientific evidence... you have not. I will accept another person's opinion ~when they provide FACT to support it.~ Until that point, the opinion is invalid.
On a side note, your ad hominem attacks are both ignorant and indicative of your lack of reason. Calling me a bully, claiming I don't know what I'm talking about because I'm not a "lifelong resident", etc. do nothing to support your argument. In addition, you might want to drop the feminine pronouns as I am not a woman (as you can clearly see in my photo.)
Dave A.
9:35 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
No I don' t believe it is magical. I asked about your schooling because you keep eluding to a start time of 8 am when I went to high school here and the start time was 7:30.
I failed to see I where you went to school. As for studies when I get a chance to look I will.
All you want is confrontation and get defensive when someone asks you a question or opposes your points. Get over it.

"Brook Hubbard

And I attended high school in Prince George's County and our start time was 8:15 a.m."
I don't want confrontation, what I want is people to be reasonable and use critical thought. One side of the argument presents decades of studies to support a nationwide movement to start school time later. The other side of the argument uses personal anecdote and opinion to support fallacious arguments, all while ignoring the other side's proof and never providing any of their own.
Also, claims of "you're a bully" and "get over it" don't really add to the maturity of your own statements. I refuse to "get over it" because your lack of reason could affect my own children. Just like you don't want your tax dollars dictated by "unnecessary studies", I don't want my kid's development and education dictated by those who are purposefully ignorant.
6:25 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
Poor little kids who can't make it to bed at a decent time. Too busy on the computer or just hanging out with their friends until midnight.
When they join the work force and have to get up at 5 am to get to work they will disintegrate! Good luck in the real work.
Brook Hubbard
8:30 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
Real work requires getting up at 5 a.m.? Who says... you? I've worked for private and public sectors; unless I was working shift work, I never had to be to work before 8 a.m.
Like the others, it seems those opposed to changes in school times cannot do anything but reiterate the same unsupported generalizations. All that does is make your side of the argument look purposefully ignorant.
Dave A.
9:38 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
There are many start times for work. You were lucky to start at 8. Of course 8 seems to be the only start time you accept as normal. Did you ever stop to think that you are abnormal sine you are stuck on a complex time of 8 am?
That's it everyone, I conducted a study and Brook appears abnormal since he can not deviate from 8 am!
Brook Hubbard
10:14 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
Who said I was stuck on 8 a.m.? I said that was the earliest I had to work. I also noted that it means absolutely nothing because it's just another anecdote to counter your own.
Of course, now that you still cannot provide anything mature or logical to support your argument, you're going to resort to ridiculous exaggeration and non sequitur attacks. Do you have anything intelligent to add to this conversation or should we just chalk you up to the same trolls that are plaguing the rest of the articles on this Patch?

Don't fight the natural sleep cycle. Work with it and the kids will be better off for it. Once they are adults, then they can choose to ignore good sleep habits as much as they want. While they are still children, however, we "adults" need to help them get the sleep that they need for school...

How did Open Space Schooling work out? The Study said it works.
How did the Look See Method of reading work out??? The Professionals said it would a good thing
How has the New Math worked out??? Teachers said it was the right way to go and now some kids behind a cash register can't make change without the computer telling them what the correct change is suppose to be.
Just saying - The Experts may not be as expert as they profess.
I remember in 1972 during the oil shortage that we were suppose to be out of oil by 2000.
In the farming days, kids got up to milk the cows and feed the livestock and that is one of the reasons why school started later.

On a different note...The support petition being circulated on line contains signatures from Va, Ca, Mt. Airy Md,and Oella Md, all not in HoCo school district. The only signatures that should count, is those of HoCo voters. Not sure how serious the Board will take the petition anyway but I would challenge the validity.

You bring up a good point that sometimes programs don't work out. However, you neglect to note that the programs you mentioned were not based on physiological needs but on more esoteric questions regarding the efficiency of schools. In addition, all three of these programs were implemented during the 60's and 70's, know for being a period of unconventional ideas and cultural conflicts. To understand why these ideas were tried and why they may not have worked out, we have to recognize the historical context.
Brook Hubbard
2:46 pm on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
The Open Classroom model was brought over by American educators interested in British schooling styles. There was never any evidence that this model was better than the American one; it was simply something new to try because of criticisms about the current U.S. schooling system. Testing found negligible effect on the majority population, but increases in learning from specific student personality types. Of course, the U.S. program was criticized for taking the program too literally and ignoring the core tenets of an "open classroom". Today, many of these tenets are still used, particularly in student-based education found often in special programs, charter schools, and private schools.
Brook Hubbard
2:46 pm on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
The Look & Say method grew out of the holistic approach of psychology, which believed that the whole is different from the part. There was a great conflict in the psychological community over behaviorism versus humanism, and it affected many areas of mental health and developmental studies (including education). Again, testing found that the "whole language" approach did not accurately teach children and it was generally abandoned. Psychology, being a "soft" science and not beholden to strict rules, changed and found that the concept was not without its merits. Today, with the advent of socio-cognitive theories, many educators and psychologists use a mixture of phonetics and whole language approaches to teach reading.
Brook Hubbard
2:47 pm on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
The New Math style originated out of the space race with the Russians; it was an attempt to increase future generations scientific knowledge through the use of teaching advanced mathematical techniques over basic ones. The program was quickly discredited as being unnecessarily complex and having little application to basic American life. Almost everyone today agrees that the only reason it was tried was out of fear during the Cold War, and not for any valid concerns over our current educational system.
Brook Hubbard
2:50 pm on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
The concept of Start Later, however, is not based on cultural upheavals, paradigm shifts in psychology, or interests in esoteric concepts. It is based on the physiology of teenagers and is no different than any other movement based on medical and scientific knowledge.
They have already implemented later start times across the United States. Two Minneapolis districts in 1997, Arlington County (VA) in 2001, Jessamin County (KY) in 2002, Santa Rosa County (FL) in 2007, Indianapolis area in 2010... all of these are success stories. Lower dropout rates, higher grades, positive shifts in student mental health, lower school spending, etc.
These are far different than the pedagogical fads of the 60's and 70's. There is a scientific reason to implement this program. There is over a decade of proof that it works and provides many positive benefits. There is support from not just a singular group with their own ideas, but from a multi-disciplinary movement. That is why I don't believe you can compare this program to the failed attempts of the mid-20th century.

A) Accuse them of having too much time;

Seeing The World Through Rosé Colored Wine Glasses
30 Jul 2012
From Summer BBQs with families to dinner parties with friends, rosé wine has become a very popular beverage option to serve. We've listed off a few types of glasses you can find in our cabinets for those special (or everyday) occasions!
(Clockwise from top left): These stemless hand blown glasses from Anthropologie add a bit of comfort and ease to sipping wine. Each one looks handmade and authentic since they are not uniform. Some still have the bubbles within the glasses for that extra charm.
West Elm has a hammered-acrylic glassware set we just adore! The wine glasses are available by set of 4 for only $18. That way if somebody accidentally breaks one, they won't feel bad since it's such a steal.
La Rochere Bee Embossed Wine Glasses are idyllic for your Summer tabletop. With the price point of just under $9/glass, we think this French-made barware is the bee's knees!
Novica Grape Blossoms Etched wine glasses are handmade, and offered in partnership with NOVICA, in association with National Geographic. Javier and Efrén are the artists behind these beautiful pieces. They have worked together to preserve Mexico's blown glass artistry. "Javier specializes in the design of the pieces, and Efrén transforms them into reality."
What glassware do you serve for your summer gatherings?

Technology and Electronics
Battle of Linux vs Windows
Linux vs Windows Personal Experience
I have a couple of friends, both techies, who use it and encouraged me to give the test of Linux vs Windows a try. I finally did after ANOTHER frustrating experience with Windows, and one of them helped me install Linux. It is an operating system, just like Windows and Mac, but it's what they call an open source system. Open Source means that anyone can write programs for it, but as soon as you offer it, other techies around the world are going to scrutinize it for suspicious content – hence there are no viruses with Linux. There are thousands of apps that you can install, and it runs OpenOffice. Caveat: I tried to install something a couple of weeks ago, and now I can't get it to boot up, so I'm back to Windows for the time being. Don't try the Linux vs Windows test unless you have a good, available techie to help you out in a bind. Sounds negative, but you have the same problem with Windows for sure, and maybe Mac as well. One feature that I really like is that when you turn it on, you're ready to go in less than 30 seconds, and it turns off in 5 seconds, instead of the 90 that Windows takes. Linux takes a little getting used to, layout and such, but overall I like Linux. Maybe Linux For Dummies would be helpful. P.S. Linux is free which makes taking the Linux vs Windows test very appealing.

Town Meeting Day voters will be asked whether they support an advisory, nonbinding ordinance to regulate recreational target shooting in certain neighborhoods.
The vote is a recommendation for the selectboard and would not become law if passed.
Instead, the panel would have to decide what to do next, move forward with an ordinance or leave it alone all together.
Vermont law prohibits communities from regulating gun licenses of ranges, but towns can step in and set rules for when firearms can be discharged.
The article on the table in Highgate would regulate the sport shooting "on residential properties accessed or physically bordering Monument Road, Tanglewood Drive, Jedware Circle, [and] Penny Lane," and within 1,000 feet of Highgate Elementary School and the Missisquoi Valley Union school.
"Bullets are leaving people's property and we don't want people to get hurt," said Vern Brosky III. "We don't want houses to get shot.
Brosky, a recreational shooter himself, proposed the nonbinding article after learning houses were getting shot in Highgate from unregulated backyard ranges.
"Many of the people on the petition are gun owners," Brosky said. "This is all about safety."
Discussion about the proposed ordinance escalated when teachers and students reported hearing shots at the elementary school. Federal law already makes it a crime to knowingly bring a gun on to school property.
Hunting and self-defense shooting would still be allowed under the ordinance.

I don't see where anyone has taken credit (?) for this yet. The below article seems to be the most up to date (it includes the video Cyn linked). Apparently the airports in Russia (transportation, in general) are not beefing up their security as much as would be expected after several past terrorist attacks.
Those poor people who were killed, wounded, or are family members. I sincerely hope they get to the bottom of this and do more to prevent it in the future.
That's a freaky video It shows bodies near the end
The mind of the performer is a very strange thing.

CNN "blog" with updates as they come
My thoughts (and if I prayed, prayers) go out to the souls lost, their families and friends, as well as the citizens of Russia.
I can only hope that the Russian government is able to track down who is responsible and punish them to the most severe extent possible.
My skating coach's friend in Moscow told him that the news there says that 45 are dead, but I can't confirm that via another source.
Today is Doomsday. Alternate side of the street parking will be in effect.
CNN and FoxNews both reporting that the death toll has risen to "at least 35:"
Fox News article
CNN Article
According to the article at CNN, there are at least 152 injured, many critically, and the number of dead could "substantially rise."
Just said on BBC that the bomb was packed with screws and ball-bearings. Just wicked.
FoxNews (linked above) updated their report, adding the following:
Russian news agencies reported the explosion was caused by a suicide bomber and law enforcement sources told the Interfax news agency a head found at the site appears to belong to the bomber.
"We found the head of a man of Arab appearance, aged 30-35. It seems he detonated the explosive device," said the source.
This is just so horrific.
I heard it on my car radio while driving to work. At that time they did not have any details. Now I am reading on CNN that 35 were killed and 152 were injured. That's horrible.
OMG, how horrible. My heart goes out to the families of the people who died.
How awful.
Give me one more quiet night, before this loud morning gets it right, and does me in.
How awful, my thoughts and prayers are with the families and the people of Russia.
