MIAMI — Jim Harbaugh's blowout victory in the Orange Bowl made a big impression on Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross.
Harbaugh met Thursday with Ross in the San Francisco area about the Dolphins' coaching job, two people with knowledge of the situation said. Both spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the meeting was to remain confidential.
Ross flew from his home in New York to San Jose, Calif., for the visit even while Tony Sparano remained Miami's coach. A late-season collapse by the Dolphins left Sparano's job in jeopardy.
While Stanford may lose Harbaugh, Cardinal quarterback Andrew Luck opted to stay in college to get his degree instead of immediately cashing in on the riches of being the likely No. 1 pick in the NFL draft. Luck announced his decision Thursday.
ESPN was first to report Harbaugh's meeting with Ross. Harbaugh met Wednesday with the San Francisco 49ers about their coaching vacancy and may consider other suitors as well.
Harbaugh returned Tuesday to the Bay Area following Stanford's 40-12 Orange Bowl victory over Virginia Tech in the stadium Ross owns. Ross, Dolphins CEO Mike Dee and general manager Jeff Ireland were on the Stanford sideline before the game.
Harbaugh was a star quarterback at Michigan, which also has a coaching vacancy. But Wolverines athletic director Dave Brandon has said he expects Harbaugh to take an NFL job.
Ross is also a Michigan graduate and a major contributor to the university. The school of business carries his name.
Landing Harbaugh will require a significant financial commitment. New Denver Broncos chief football executive John Elway has said he hopes to interview Harbaugh for their job, and new 49ers general manager Trent Baalke is looking for the coach to replace Mike Singletary, who was fired.
If Harbaugh reaches an agreement with the Dolphins, he would become their sixth coach since 2004. They haven't won a playoff game since 2000 and haven't reached the Super Bowl since 1984.
Sparano has a year left on his contract, but a late-season collapse may have sealed his fate. He has been working this week at the team's complex in Davie, Fla., and when he took an afternoon walk Thursday, he encountered a cluster of media staking out the facility.
"You guys need to find a better hobby," Sparano said.
While the Dolphins don't technically having a coaching vacancy, they also must comply with the NFL's Rooney Rule, which requires any team with a head coaching vacancy to interview at least one minority candidate. Harbaugh is the only candidate they're known to have interviewed.
Miami decided to make courting Harbaugh its first priority. He's 58-27 overall as a college coach and 29-21 in four seasons at Stanford. He took over a 1-11 team when he was hired in December 2006 and quickly transformed the program. The Cardinal set a school record for victories this season by going 12-1.
Harbaugh played 15 seasons in the NFL for the Bears, Colts, Ravens, Chargers and Panthers. He also has NFL coaching experience — he was the Raiders' quarterbacks coach in 2002-03, then spent three seasons as head coach at the University of San Diego.
Harbaugh's brother, John, is the coach of the Baltimore Ravens, who are in the AFC playoffs.
Ross said before the season he expected the Dolphins to reach the Super Bowl. Instead, for the eighth time in nine years they failed to reach the playoffs, losing their final three games to finish 7-9.
They endured a 38-7 drubbing at New England on Sunday and lost at home in December to three sub-.500 teams. Their 1-7 home record matched the worst in franchise history.
Sparano, who led Miami to that lone postseason berth in 2008, has a three-year record of 25-23.
AP Sports Writer Janie McCauley in San Francisco contributed to this report.

Yesterday in Washington, amid great fanfare, the Republican senator from Oklahoma, Tom Coburn, released a 73-page report called The National Science Foundation: Under the Microscope. The report — deemed "scathing" in an "exclusive" by ABC News, and widely touted by other news organizations, particularly those owned by Rupert Murdoch — purported to expose a culture of waste, fraud, and mismanagement at the NSF.
"This report identifies over $3 billion in mismanagement at NSF," the authors intoned ominously. "This includes tens of millions of dollars spent on questionable studies, excessive amounts of expired funds that have not been returned to the Treasury, inadequate contracting practices that unnecessarily increase costs, and a lack of metrics to demonstrate results."
This sounds like a shocking waste of taxpayers' money in a time of fiscal belt-tightening, and the type of "studies" cited by the report sound dubious indeed, including research into "How to ride a bike; When did dogs became man's best friend; If political views are genetically pre-determined; How to improve the quality of wine; Do boys like to play with trucks and girls like to play with dolls."
Three of the most egregious sounding items in Coburn's report are described as a study in which a "scientist put shrimp on a tiny treadmill to determine if sickness impaired the mobility of the crustaceans," an effort to design robots capable of folding laundry, and an outbreak of "jello (sic) wrestling in Antarctica at the NSF research station McMurdo station." The Senator and his team of fiscal watchdogs helpfully included a grotesque snapshot of the Jell-O incident, which looks like it was cut and pasted from some other Congressional report on the menace of online pornography.
Surely there is waste and mismanagement at the NSF, as there is at any large organization staffed by human beings, though even allegedly LOL-worthy studies of ailing shrimp can yield results that inform the fate of fisheries that provide food and jobs for millions of people. Many outlets in the mainstream media and the right-wing blogosphere dutifully mocked the alleged absurdities detailed in the report, complete with the inevitable photos of sick shrimp on treadmills (also furnished by Senator Coburn's office) and Jell-O swingers partying at the South Pole in this year's installment of a recurring GOP series that you might call Scientists Gone Wild — a phrase that actually appears as a headline in Coburn's report. ("This science isn't just weird, it's expensive!" gushed Murdoch's New York Post.)
Highlights of the 2008 version of the same partisan show included John McCain and Sarah Palin — then running for the highest offices in the land — fulminating about earmarks for "fruit fly research in Paris, France," with Palin throwing in a plucky "I kid you not!" to express her taxpayer's righteous indignation.
Never mind that thousands of world-changing breakthroughs in health and basic science have resulted from studying Drosophila, and that the specific research Palin was ridiculing was focused on proteins in the brain called neurexins that may play a role in neural dysfunction in autism. Never mind that improving care for kids with developmental disabilities (such as autism and Down's syndrome) is allegedly one of the causes dearest to the heart of Palin, who is the mother of a kid with Down's syndrome, and has just announced her candidacy for the presidency of the United States. Her logic is not terribly profound: If government-funded scientists are behind these fruit-fly antics in "Paris, France," the science must be fruity indeed.
Never mind that the NSF funds thousands of studies a year in basic science, engineering, medicine, climate, physics, and an impressive variety of other fields, training the next generation of American scientists to make the next round of world-changing breakthroughs. You'd hardly know that from reading Coburn's broad-brushed tarring of the agency, which includes an image of an internal warning from the agency to its evidently rosy-palmed staff ("Stop Surfing Porn!") and this unflattering portrait:
One senior executive spent at least 331 days looking at pornography on his government computer and chatting online with nude or partially clad women — costing the taxpayers between $13,800 and $58,000. When caught, the NSF official retired but defended himself by suggesting he visited the porn sites to provide a living to poor overseas women. The senior executive explained "that these young women are from poor countries and need to make money to help their parents and this site helps them do that."
That's a little Rembrandt right there, sketched out in high GOP style: The arrogant "senior executive," puffed up with liberal notions of helping the poor and downtrodden, pissing away Joe the Plumber's hard-earned paychecks by chatting on teh Internets with not only nude but "partially-clad" women. Why the additional photographic detail? Because the Senator from Oklahoma wants his readers to see the scanty lingerie, as well as the little trickle of drool issuing from the lips of this fatuous, condescending senior executive at the Ministry of Silly Science.
The problem is that, as with most GOP initiatives, the closer you look, the more the worldview of Coburn's report seems deliberately and blatantly skewed in ways that support overlapping GOP narratives. One of the wastes of hard-earned tax money described in Coburn's report is described as "a study on whether online dating site users are racist in their dating habits." Well, that sounds PC enough to make any red-meat Republican senator's blood boil, raising the specter of egghead academics sponsored by Obama's nanny state spending their expensive hours scrutinizing the kinks of OKCupid habitués.
Predictably, Coburn's synopsis of this research — led by Andrew Fiore and Coye Cheshire at the UC Berkeley School of Information — is as superficial as McCain's crusade against Drosophila research turned out to be. The scope of the research in question was not just determining whether or not dating sites are infested with potential KKK members, but how the advent of social media is affecting awareness of race in social interactions. In an email to me, Fiore explained:
The key question our study examined is whether we perceive people online in the same way as we do offline. What if interpersonal perception is different enough online that we prefer different types of people than we would if we met them in an offline context? Where the choice of romantic partners is concerned, the implications are significant: People may be meeting, marrying, and having children with different types of partners than they would have chosen had these mediating technologies not been available.
Considering the sheer number of people who search for romantic partners and spouses online these days (one-third of all couples surveyed by researchers at Stanford and the City University of New York in 2009 met online; I'm happily married to a science teacher I met on Usenet 16 years ago), the changing racial dynamics of these interactions seem worthy of investigation, not mere fodder for easy ridicule.
I found it interesting that my call to Berkeley researcher Coye Cheshire yesterday was the first he'd heard of the Senator's report, though his study is cited as a particularly egregious example of NSF mismanagement; an email from one of the Senator's interns might have yielded additional perspective on the research.
But that's, like, looking for "data" that can only cause trouble. The truth is, the current incarnation of the GOP, frozen in its pose of perpetually indignant outrage, doesn't want additional perspective, more data and nuance, and — Heaven forbid — dissenting voices. The impulse to marginalize, condemn, ridicule, and finally choke off dissenting voices is not only what's behind Senator Coburn's war on the NSF, it's behind the GOP-sponsored culture war that has sucked much of the oxygen out of the national discourse for more than a decade now.
Republicans don't like science and scientists because they are sources of data that are independent of GOP-approved propaganda mills like Fox News. Pesky scientists and academics are always popping up to dispute the Roger Ailes-approved buzz-quote of the day — on climate change, on health care, on the effects of poverty on the rapidly evaporating middle class, on the diversity of American families, and on the importance of funding basic research instead of commercially-driven ventures constrained by short-term considerations like ROI.
Today's GOP has a visceral distrust of scientists for the same reason that it has a visceral distrust of the "lamestream media" (particularly deeply reported news organizations like The New York Times), teachers, organized labor, regulatory agencies, National Public Radio, and protest movements that are have not been astroturfed for Fox News' cameras by Koch Industries: They're not with the program, whatever this week's program might be — more windfalls to Big Oil, justifying torture, or floating amendments to officially brand gay people as second-class citizens.
Science, you could say, has a built-in left-wing bias, because it does not appeal to simplistic notions of God, country, tribal supremacy, or any of the other lesser angels of our nature that the GOP finds handy for its get-out-the-angry-vote drives. (The backers of a spectacularly mean-spirited effort to put a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage on the 2012 ballot in Minnesota — despite the fact that marriage equality is already illegal in that state — admitted that fundraising concerns were a motivating force in ramming the bigoted amendment through the House at the last minute, even against the wishes of Republicans in districts that are open-minded about marriage equality.)
In his introduction to the report, Senator Coburn — solemnly describing himself as a "practicing physician and two-time cancer survivor" — declares his "very personal appreciation for the benefits of scientific research," before going on to paint President Obama as a budget-busting liberal heaving millions of scarce tax dollars toward putting sick shrimp on treadmills, analyzing the dynamics of FarmVille on Facebook, and hosting Jell-O-fueled orgies for scientists at the South Pole.
The message of Coburn's report is the message of Sarah Palin's slams against the media is the message of the right-wing blogosphere's mockery of climate scientists is the message of Wisconsin governor Scott Walker's attacks on labor is the message of Maggie Gallagher's expensive war on gay couples who want to get married: These alleged "experts" don't really know anything. Not only that, they think you're stupid. They claim to be independent and objective, but in reality, they're corrupt, self-interested, and purely partisan. They're making fools of American taxpayers while indulging their liberal — indeed, sinful — excesses in a time when "common sense" Republicans are prescribing drastic measures to scale down the national debt, like, oh, say, demolishing Medicare, smashing labor unions, defunding Planned Parenthood and National Public Radio, and shredding social safety nets.
(Never mind that the GOP added billions if not trillions of dollars to the national debt by launching a war in Iraq on the phony premise that Saddam Hussein was stockpiling Weapons of Mass Destruction in the desert.)
Whatever you do, don't look at the data. Keep your eye on the sick shrimp on the treadmills, the towel-folding robots, and the Jell-O wrestlers at McMurdo station.

A magnitude 5.1 quake centered near La Habra tonight was felt across the Eastside, from East L.A. to Echo Park. There are no early reports of any major damage, and a pre-season game at Dodger Stadium continued as normal after the earthquake hit at 9:09 p.m. LADWP says that water and power systems are "reporting as ok," and Metro found no damage to its rail lines. City fire crews are inspecting neighborhoods for potential damage after the second significant quake to strike the L.A. basin in two weeks, with seismologists saying there is a 5% chance that tonight's temblor is a foreshock of an even larger quake.
People expressed anxiety and relief on countless tweets and comments on social media:

Topic : 04/09 "My Child Can't Stop Eating"
Created on : Friday, November 14, 2008, 03:17:09 pm
(Original Air Date: 11/18/08) Dieters know how hard it is to shed five or 10 pounds. What do you do when you need to lose 100 pounds … and you're just 10 years old? Dr. Phil talks to parents who say they can't get their child to stop eating, and they fear this food addiction could turn deadly. Luz's daughter, Kayla, is just 5 years old, but she already tips the scales at 113 pounds. Luz says her child throws temper tantrums when she doesn't eat, and she once screamed so loudly for junk food, her neighbors called the police! Does Kayla have an eating disorder, or is Luz enabling her? Dr. Jim Sears, co-host of the hit show The Doctors, gives this mom a wake-up call. Then, Stephanie says her 3-year-old daughter, SaJatta, is addicted to sausage and grits. The toddler weighs 88 pounds and gets winded just walking up the stairs in her house. SaJatta's grandmother, Mary, says the little girl is spoiled, and she doesn't know how to say no to her. What do the results from SaJatta's blood work reveal? Can the family conquer her obesity? Plus, Mary says her daughter, Brittany, was an active child until she broke her ankle five years ago. Now at age 10, Brittany weighs 190 pounds, and her folks say she's turned into a couch potato. How can Mary and her husband, Roger, motivate the child to lose weight? Fitness trainer Robert Reames has a surprise for the family! Talk about the show here.

Dash is a minimalist POSIX-complient shell. It can be much faster than Bash, and takes up less memory when in use. Most POSIX compliant scripts specify
/bin/sh at the first line of the script, which means it will run
/bin/sh as the shell, which by default in Arch is a symlink to
You can re-symlink
/bin/sh to
/bin/dash, which can increase system performance, but first you must verify that none of the scripts that aren't explicitly #!/bin/bash scripts are safely POSIX compliant and do not require any of Bash's features.
This article is for those who want to help dash become the new
From http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.arch.devel/11418:

- https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/dash-as-bin-sh
- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh
- All install scripts must be sh-compatible (or we need a way of executing non-sh scripts, there is a bug open for that)
- Any daemon/init script is probably written for /bin/bash as our rc.conf and other initscripts files use bash arrays, so those need to be pointed correctly
Identifying bashisms
Features of bash that aren't included in Dash ('bashisms') will not work without being explicitly pointed to
/bin/bash. The following instructions will allow you to find any scripts that may need modification.
Install checkbashismsAUR from the AUR.
Common places to check
- Installed scripts with a
$ find {,/usr}/bin -type f \ -exec grep -q -- '^#!/bin/sh' {} \; \ -exec checkbashisms -f -p {} +
- Package install scripts:
$ find /var/lib/pacman/local -mindepth 2 -type f -name install \ -exec checkbashisms -f -p {} + 2>&1 |\ grep -v -e '^you may get strange results' \ -e 'does not appear to have a #! interpreter line;$'
- Initscripts and daemons:
$ find \ /etc/rc.{conf,d,local{,.shutdown},multi,shutdown,single,sysinit} -type f \ -exec checkbashisms -f -p {} + 2>&1 |\ grep -v -e '^you may get strange results' \ -e 'does not appear to have a #! interpreter line;$'
Relinking /bin/sh
Once you have verified that it won't break any functionality, it should be safe to relink
/bin/sh. To do so use the following command (as root):
ln -sfT /bin/dash /bin/sh
Initscript status
- The FD checks with

/etc/rc.d/functionsdo not work correctly with dash, breaking colored output as a result. See http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19551?project=1&order=id&sort=desc (the patch does not address this issue in particular).
- Try using
test(1)instead of the dash builtin?

Hasselhoff 'has healing powers'
DAVID HASSELHOFF is convinced he has special healing powers after a motivational message he recorded for a sick young boy helped the youngster come out of a coma.
The Baywatch star is adamant he has saved thousands of lives through positive thinking and recalls one time he spoke in the voice of his Knight Rider character Michael Knight in a bid to help an ill child.
He tells BBC Radio Five Live, "The upside of being in showbiz is being able to hold the hand of a kid who is dying, you know.
"I did a tape for a kid saying, 'Hey buddy, it's Michael Knight, Michael Knight, come on, wake up, wake up, wake up'.
"The phone rang and they said, 'Remember that kid you did the tape for that was hit at that crosswalk in London? Well we played the tape for him and he came out of the coma.'
"I went, 'Whoa, whoa'. He said, 'We played it once'. I met the kid at the hotel afterwards. I don't want to be corny or anything but that's happened to me a thousand times all around the world because it can affect people in a positive way."

ACCOUNTING FOR INVOLUNTARY CONVERSIONS Introduction
1. If an asset is involuntarily destroyed, stolen, expropri-ated, or taken by right of eminent domain, the event is referred to as an involuntary conversion. Involuntary conver-sions can occur in the following ways:
• Nonmonetary to nonmonetary (trade of assets); for example, the federal government exchanges timberland with a company to develop a park.
• Nonmonetary to monetary, with no intent by the owner to reinvest in similar productive assets;1 for example, the insurance proceeds from the loss of a building due to a fire are not reinvested in a building because the company has excess capacity.
• Nonmonetary to monetary, with intent by the owner to reinvest in similar productive assets; for example, the owner intends to invest the insurance proceeds from the loss of a building due to a fire in a replacement building.
As defined, in APB Opinion 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, paragraph 3, "Similar productive assets are productive assets that are of the same general type, that perform the same function or that are employed in the same line of business."

3 is the third installment in the popular Tekken fighting game series.
It was released on Arcades in March 1997, and for the PlayStation in
mid-1998. A simplified "arcade" version of the game was released in 2005
for the PlayStation 2 as part of Tekken 5's Arcade History mode. The
PlayStation version is considered by some as one of the greatest games
of its genre.[6]It
was the first game released on Namco System 12 hardware (an improvement
to the original two Tekken games, which used System 11). It was also
the last installment of the series for the PlayStation
Tekken 3 maintains the same
core fighting system and concept as its predecessors, but brings many
improvements, such as significantly more detailed graphics and
animations, fifteen new characters added to the game's roster, more
modern music and faster and more fluid gameplay.Perhaps
the most noticeable change from Tekken 2 fight system is movement
reform - whereas the element of depth had been largely insignificant in
previous Tekken games (aside from some characters having unique
sidesteps and dodging maneuvers), Tekken 3 added emphasis on the third
axis, allowing all characters to sidestep in or out of the background by
lightly pressing the arcade stick (or tapping the controller button in
the console version) towards the corresponding direction. Another big
change in movement was that jumping was toned down, no longer allowing
fighters to jump to extreme heights (as was present in previous games),
but keeping leaps to reasonable, realistic heights. It made air combat
more controllable, and put more use to sidestep dodges, as jumping no
longer became a universal dodge move that was flying above all of the
ground moves. Other than that, the improved engine allowed for quick
recoveries from knock-downs, more escapes from tackles and stuns, better
juggling (as many old moves had changed parameters, allowing them to
connect in combo-situations, where they wouldn't connect in previous
games) and extra newly-created combo throws.Tekken
3 was the first Tekken to feature a beat 'em up Streets of Rage style
minigame called Tekken Force, which pitted the player in various stages
against enemies in a side-scrolling fashion. If the player succeeds in
beating the minigame four times, Dr. Bosconovitch would be a playable
character (granted that you defeat him first). This was continued in
Tekken 4 and succeeded by the Devil Within minigame in Tekken 5 - but
Boskonovitch was dropped as a playable character after Tekken 3. There
is also a minigame called Tekken Ball, similar to beach volleyball,
where one has to either "charge" a ball (hit the ball with a powerful
attack) to hurt the opponent or try to hit the ball in such a way that
it hits the ground in the opponent's area, thus causing damage.
Set fifteen years after the
King of the Iron Fist Tournament 2, the story starts with Jun Kazama,
who has been living a quiet life in Yakushima with her young son, Jin,
who is the son of Kazuya Mishima.Heihachi Mishima, meanwhile,
has established the Tekken Force, an organization dedicated to the
protection of the Mishima Zaibatsu. Using the company's influence,
Heihachi is responsible for many events that have ultimately led to
world peace. However, while on an excavation in Mexico, a squadron of
Heihachi's Tekken Force is attacked and vanquished by a mysterious
being. The only surviving soldier manages to relay a brief message to
Heihachi, describing the perpetrator as an "Ogre" or a "Fighting God".
Heihachi and a team of soldiers investigate, with Heihachi managing to
catch a glimpse of the culprit. After seeing the Ogre character,
Heihachi's long dormant dream of world domination is reawakened. He
seeks to capture Ogre to use him for this goal.Soon after, various martial
arts masters begin disappearing from all over the world, and Heihachi
is convinced that this is Ogre's doing. In Yakushima, Jun starts to feel
the presence of Ogre approaching her and Jin. Knowing that she has
become a target, Jun tells Jin about Ogre, and instructs him to go
straight to Heihachi should anything happen. Sometime after Jin's
fifteenth birthday, Ogre does indeed attack. Against Jun's wishes, Jin
valiantly tries to fight Ogre off, but Ogre brushes him aside and knocks
him unconscious. When Jin reawakens, he finds that the house has been
burned to the ground, and that his mother is missing and most likely
dead.Driven by revenge, Jin goes to Heihachi and tells him
everything. Jin begs Heihachi to train him to become strong enough to
face Ogre again. Heihachi accepts.Four years later, Jin grows
into an impressive fighter and master of Mishima Style Karate. On Jin's
nineteenth birthday, the King of the Iron Fist Tournament 3 is
announced, and Jin prepares for his upcoming battle against Ogre. He is
unaware, however, that Heihachi is merely using him and the rest of the
competitors as bait to lure Ogre out in order to capture him.Eventually,
the tournament leads to the final confrontation between Jin and the God
of Fighting. Paul Phoenix was successful in defeating Ogre, however, he
leaves after winning the match. Unknown to him at the time, Ogre is
able to transform into a much more powerful "true" form, known to the
players as "True Ogre". When Jin arrives, he is confronted by this True
Ogre form and begins the fight. The battle rages for hours, until Jin
finally emerges the victor and Ogre completely dissolves. Moments later,
Jin is gunned down by a squadron of Tekken Forces led by Heihachi, who,
no longer needing Jin, finishes the job personally by firing a final
shot into his grandson's head.
However, Jin, revived by the Devil
Gene within him (because after Jin's mother had gone missing following
an attack from Ogre, Devil returned, branded Jin's left arm with a mark,
possessing him), reawakens and makes quick work of the soldiers,
turning his attention to Heihachi and literally smashing him through the
wall of the temple. Heihachi survives the long fall, but Jin, in
mid-air, sprouts black, feathery wings and strikes Heihachi one last
time. He then flies off into the night, leaving his bewildered
grandfather staring after him.

Submitted by rc-admin on
This letter came today to the Romantic Circles Editors:
I thought you might be interested of a small local production based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, based on the experiences of the summer of 1816 at Villa Diodati in Geneva. It is an all original script called "the Monster Makers" written and directed by Louis B. Hobson.
[see this story in the Calgary Sun --SJ]
It puts on a theatre stage an account of what might have transpired between the five characters of Lord George Byron, Dr. John Polidori, Claire Clairmont, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Mary Godwin. It opens April 13 at the pumphouse theatres in Calgary, Alberta and goes until April 20. A shortened version recently won the Calgary regional one-act play festival, and this also will be used for the Alberta provincial one-act play festival.

Dave Wennergren, a Defense Department technology and management leader, has announced plans to retire in August after a 30-year federal career, Federal News Radio reported.
Emails announcing Wennergren's Aug. 1 going-away party circulated inside the Pentagon, though no official announcement has been made.
Currently the department's assistant deputy chief management officer reporting to Beth McGrath, Wennergren previously was deputy chief information officer. He served for five years as vice chair of the Federal CIO Council, director of the Pentagon's Business Transformation Agency and earlier was the Navy Department's chief information officer.
A frequent speaker at Government Executive events, Wennergren in May 2012 offered 10 observations on how the Pentagon -- particularly in information technology -- is creating a sense of urgency for change to reflect the digital revolution and the up-and-coming workforce. At a time of "financial challenges, it gets tough and people tend to hunker down so that the first things that fall off the bus are the new things," he said. "Some of the Pentagon business systems are old, but they have constituencies and they love their babies," he said. "We have to let some people know their babies are ugly."

I Bike London is back for 2013 and we would love for you to join our first ride of the year: the Love 2 Ride! It will be a free fun and sociable event, going through some of London's main parks within the South West. To celebrate St Valentine's day and the love of cycling, let's all get together: we welcome families, couples and singles.
The ride will start at 11:00am Saturday 16th February where we'll be leaving from the Achilles Statue at Hyde Park Corner (postcode W1K). After cycling through Hyde Park and Green Park, we will head to Elephant and Castles before going down to Brixton and Clapham. We will cycle up to Battersea Park, then through the Brompton Cemetery and finally end at the pub, the Builder's Arms, in Kensington around 3.30pm (1 Kensington Court Place, W8 5BJ).
The pace will be relaxed and suitable for children, with breaks along the way. We will provide mechanical assistance if needed. The route covers 35 kilometres (22 miles) and is flat most of the way.
Few rules: It's free. Everyone can join. We do not provide the bikes. For your safety we recommend wearing a helmet, but you're free not to. We are careful on the road, we pause at stop signs and lights so we don't disturb other road users.

Looks like Google isn't the only one making sure that when a user talks, the iPhone listens. Vlingo wrote in to tell us that their well-known BlackBerry app is now available for the iPhone, and it sure looks like they've been listening as well!
Vlingo lets you:
- Initiate calls to anyone in your address book.
- Look up anything through Yahoo! or Google in one step. Just say, "Web search: concert tickets in Boston," and the results are displayed.
- Look up and map local listings. For example, by saying, "Find Italian restaurants in San Francisco," vlingo will show choices and can populate Google Maps with the touch of a button.
- Send Facebook and Twitter status updates without typing. Vlingo also automatically embeds a Web browser so users can easily access the mobile versions of Facebook and Twitter to keep track of their friends' updates.
Google works pretty well, but doesn't include contact search (and seems to have trouble with British, Southern, or anything other than TV-ized North American accents.)
Vlingo does search contacts, and does a good job of it (and even suggests alternatives, which is welcome when it has trouble distinguishing between individuals with close-sounding names). However, unlike Google (which uses forbidden API's to access the phone-like "lift to your ear and start talking" functionality) you have to press a button, then talk, then press a button again when you're finished. There are helpful tutorials included to get you used to the process and on your way.

This is the official Blog for Tony Horton, creator of Power 90, Power Half Hour and P90X.
Wow, Tony! This is a great connector for me. I can totally see the connection between the lifestyle changes needed to be healthy and loss. That completely makes sense to me. I wonder if I worked through this for myself, if I'd be more successful in my attempts to keep up a healthy lifestyle. Thank you for helping me make this connection
wow, what a coincidence, I just updated my profile page to talk about my last few months dealing with a tough divorce. I really never looked at it as "grief", but I guess it is/was. You are 100% right Tony, community is essential is helping someone get through the process. thanks!
Tony, first off, I just hope you all out there got through that earthquake safely and in one piece...it can sometimes be dangerous in paradise, right?
Letting go and acceptance of thyself...sometimes two of the hardest things in the world! We all tend to love to cling to our past lives, it's comfortable and safe. And as more time goes by, truth tends to bend, memories distort and reality fades. Sometimes I reminisce about my past athletic performance, before P90 and Beachbody, and falsely lead myself to believe that I was stronger, fitter and faster back in the good old days. But when I look at the numbers from past P90X workouts (like 4 years ago) and compare them with my numbers today, I've improved all around, big time! The numbers don't lie. Let's not confuse the facts. We can only get better as we change for the better.
When patterns are broken, new worlds emerge.
~Tuli Kupferberg~
I was wondering about this very thing today, because it occurred to me that I will, at times, deliberately block myself from moving forward in this area because being what I am, feels safe.
I don't do this consciously, and it will cause intense frustration as habits re-emerge for no apparent reason and gains are lost. So I had to take a very hard look as to why I hit the "self-destruct" button, and *low whistle*, there's some stuff there in the back of the head to clean out. Most of it are things I thought I had already dealt with, but in changing my body, it can be a trigger for things long forgotten that resurface. Damn that mind-body connection! LOL.
Hoping this finds you and yours relatively intact, though shaken and stirred.
This is funny, I actually posted something about this on my One on One Obsession thread. I was listening to Tony Robbins and he was talking about lasting change. That we often have to condition ourselves in a way that makes us remember over and over that in order to have success, we need to fine tune our thinking. In another tape he also discusses how we are so conditioned to an old way of being that in order to keep having that lasting change, we have to get leverage over ourselves.
One way I could see is to let go of that person in the past. We are constantly evolving and learning and for our bodies, it has to be the same. When I was younger, I was extremely flexible and limber from stretching and martial arts. For awhile, I wanted to get that limber again so I was pushing myself in that direction. But I'm not that same kid anymore and for me to do that is like going back in time. Even my body has to evolve along with my mentality. I can still be in the best shape of my life and not be able to do the splits. In that regard, I'm like Nick above.
When I get up in the morning, I have a very strong warmup routine. It's gotten to be more like a workout than a warmup but now I remind myself that it's a warmup, I don't have to literally do 100 pushups before I do P90X or run a whole half hour before doing Plyo Legs. Because that is how I used to be, I used to want to attain a literal number, opposed to a range.
I recently lost my step-grandparents. They both passed away literally within 3 months of each other. I wasn't very close to them but I still am sad that they are gone. On the flip side, they lived to be around 85 years old and they had a wonderful, fruitful life. There are not many people that can say that, so in their passing, I would have to say that they had the best life there is.
I'll add to Nick's quotes:
"A gem is not polished without rubbing, nor a man (or woman) perfected without trials"
-- Inscription on the temple of Everlasting Harmony (I added woman)
Tony this is pretty heavy stuff! And here I thought you just yelled at people to get them into shape ;). But I so see your point. I think letting go (of old habits or your old body) is so important to the process of personal growth. I try and look at it that "I got tired of my heavy body", I want to feel like I used to, so it's going back in years and forward at the same time. This is even more true with someone who loses a large amount of weight I think because they've literally lost a person's worth and sometimes the spouse or friends don't recognize them. Change is unsettling, and it's important to allow yourself time and energy to adjust to the dislocation and disruption this can cause. Unfortunately I have been one of those people who use food in times of stress to cope, which I have to let go of. If you understand the process I think you have a better chance of accepting and adjusting to it in a healthy way.
SO true SO true, Tony! People dont realize how much loss we actually go through in a lifetime.Losing loved ones, pets,jobs, friends,places we live,and ourselves,among other things.The grief process allows us to make the transicion from the old to the new and finally accepting it.Thanks for the food for thought! Have a good one! Cathy From Colorado :)>
I've ended my 4 yr relationship just a couple of days ago and I have to thank P90X not just for the healthy benefits my body is receiving, but for the mental strength to block self sabotage and depressing thoughts. Instead of the expected reactions to grief/loss such as binge-eating and staying in a rut, I am eating clean and staying lean. Thanks for the encouraging words, Tony!
That was very powerful Tony. Thanks. Working out and staying healthy helps us deal with problems much better but it's true that you are peeling back the layers and dicovering a new you, a stronger you, the fighter in you. People have to learn to let go and learn from those experiences. That is what builds character. For that I am truly grateful. Loved the one-on-one. Can't wait til this month to get the next, meanwhile I am plugging away at the doubles and actually doing the nutrition plan this time.
Wow!! Tony, That was great. I have kept doing this self sabotage for the last 5yrs. Going through a divorce and now dating my ex. I have went through 5 years of depression and weight gain. I am 20pounds overweight. Which I know might seem like much to some. But, it is something that haunts me everyday. I am learning now to let go of the past and not try and re-live and bring the past back. Thanks so much for the talk it really brought tears to me. I am studying a book "Fearless Life" and between your 10 minute Trainer (3rd week), loggiing on to Beachbody and the book I am feeling much stronger physically and mentally. I love your 10 Minute Trainer is just enough for me to digest without an overload.
Thanks again and I enjoyed you chat a couple weeks ago on beachbody.
Hello Tony, Thanks for your inspirational words. I have been looking at my weight loss as a journey leaving behind the old me, eating habits, and sabatoging patterns. Moving toward a healthier happier me. At times along this journey some old habits/patterns might pop up and my job is to stay the course. Accept the support of my coach and friends so I can reach my goal.
Thanks again - Pam
Tony, it is so funny that you write on this topic because, when I huffed and puffed 60 pounds off off my body I felt like I had gone to my own funeral. The old me was dead. As my body continually transforms and my life style changes I promise I look in the mirror and I have no idea who that is staring back at me.
I am 47 years old but I promise I feel like I am growing younger. The cleaner I eat, the harder I workout..the more I feel like I am
just beginning.
Somethings need to die and the old me was one of them hello new beginnings and awesome possibilities.
I totally identify with this. I see where I am one of those that doesn't want to say good bye to the old self. We must never let "change" scare us. I think this is my break through here.
Thanks for the eye opener on this.
Hey, Tony!
I talked to you about this in a chat room session just a few days ago. I'm going through the grieving process right now, actually. I'm almost done with the P90X Challenge and I'm thinking about exercising every day for the rest of my life. I'm still considering doing P90X+, but I don't have many plans afterward.
By the way, I ordered your Ten Minute Trainer a few days ago and expect to receive it today!
Bring it!
Thank you so much for writing this Tony. It came as a great time for me just as I was ending my 90 days. It really hit home. Very helpful.
Dang. I thought I was alone in this. I was looking back at my P90 day one photos (I just started phase 2 of p90x) and I had this almost overwhelming sense of sadness looking at that poor guy. I could see the frustration and discontent in my eyes in the picture. I knew how crappy I felt back then and how disappointed I was with letting myself get out of shape. Very strange. When I started P90 I had just broken up with a girl who had a lot of insecurities and it was a rough time because I was hoping she would snap out of it (never did, of course). I can't imagine even dating somebody like that right now with as good and as confident as I feel from taking control of my health and fitness. Good article, Tony.
This post really struck a cord with me. I have had some problems with mild depression here & there ever since I started losing so much weight and quit drinking & smoking. My fit & healthy new lifestyle caused certain "friends" and acquaintances to stop seeing me as often and most of them were waiting for my "health kick" to pass. When it never did, I realized I was upsetting people by improving myself. It was almost enough to get me to stop exercising & start smoking again. But this blog & Tony's chats taught me that misery loves company and to surround myself with positive like-minded people. I pushed through & am getting stronger & leaner everyday. I feel healthier than I can ever remember feeling. Yet, somehow on certain days I feel that sense of loss that Tony wrote about in this post & I thought I was going crazy for having those feelings. I felt like a loser for actually missing the unhealthy things. I realized after reading this that I didn't miss cigarettes or laziness. I was feeling a sense of loss for the life I used to lead. I'm learning everyday to embrace my new freedom & healthiness. This post helped me to not feel so weird or alone. Thanks again as always Tony. You really take care of us and are a genuine caring man. Namaste :)
Many of the symptoms described here could also be a result on an autoimmune disease like a thyroid disorder or celiac (gluten intolerance). Don't be so quick to judge a diet free of animal products, there may be other reasons for peoples health problems.
Thank you for this post. I know it's an old one, but I was able to pass it on to others finishing up their first round of P90x and many people found it very helpful.

This is something I've been pondering myself recently, the leading scientific opinion is that jomosexuality is based on biology rather than being a choice, but I still wonder. I think Nature vs Nuture comes into play. Just wondering what others thoughts are.

Yeah, it counts as gullibility / idiocy.
Yeah to add to what everyone else already said, the APA has declared twice that conversion therapy not only shows no evidence of working, but also that it is potentially very harmful.
This is one of those topics where I hate to openly talk about because we always seem to downplay the homosexuals, but for who understand the true nature of homosexuality, knows Gays and Lesbians are mistakes, just like any other animal anomalies. It is simply another unfinished job or job done wrong, nothing else. It is not a choice, not a brain damage or god's hatred. Nothing is wrong with gays and lesbians other than liking the same sex because their brains have more of the opposite sex feature.
Not a single true gay person told me they felt attracted to the same sex for beauty reasons or choice or for fun, all told me it comes naturally. This is because a man born with to much female feature may or will like only men. A woman born with to much male feature may or will like only women's, naturally without thinking. People are born the way they are and cannot change, for us, lovers of the opposite sex, we will never truly understand how they feel, our brain is wired well enough, at least concerning that area of the brain. And thank goodness for science and common sense for letting us support them morally, at least I do. :)
But go say these things to a fundamentalist.... LOL (stone in hand)
Gianni, you probably should delete or edit this. Using the word "mistake" is going get a lot of people upset. Nature is not precise enough to call any living thing a mistake. See my post on this topic below. More important, given the history of persecution of homosexuals you must be careful what you say and how you say it. It is not enough to support them morally at the moment. We must support them politically and psychologically as well.
@Mo Trauen
Please give me a few more hours or maybe a day to answer your post, i have so much things to do and I will respond trough my blog as my answer is absolutely too big for this place, I would need to cut it into many bits... LOL
But I will come back soon and enlighten you!!! Richrad Dawkins is not the ultimate word and will show you why.
I like the "Sneaky Fucker" theory
Came to post this!
Dawkins has ruined me. I can't see anything on this subject without thinking about the Sneaky Fucker theory.
Love it! "The Sneaky Fucker Theory"!
Have a search for INAH3, amygdala and BSTc and you will get quite a lot of research papers trending towards biological differences. It makes sense because I have never heard of a straight person choosing to be straight. As a trans person, I think some of the same mechanisms apply to that too. One interesting theory I read in Simon Levay's book is that the X chromosome carries genes that contribute towards male homosexuality but in women produce more "promiscuous" behaviour, which helps explain why the genese persist.
Well it doesn't "make evolutionary sense" because it doesn't serve a purpose. Evolutionary mutations are supposed to have a purpose. It would make more sense to people if it had a clear evolutionary purpose. If anything it only serves to cull population growth, so... not exactly useful to the survival of our species.
Ha, I have secretly held that theory as my own for some time now. I know there's a lot of "overpopulation is a myth" nonsense out there, but the fact of the matter is while the planet may not become overpopulated, the cities (where most people live these days) undoubtedly, irrefutably, inevitably will, and that's going to affect our quality of life. And we're going to have to adapt to that. Whether or not we'd do so on a genetic level though... it's a hurdle.

Learning Index >> Thirteen Weavers
Barbara Sawyer was born in 1919 and lived and worked for most of her adult life in London and north Kent. She studied at Birmingham College of Art and attended short courses at Ethel Mairet's Gospels Workshop when a student; she frequently returned there as a vacation and weekend weaver throughout the years 1942-5 and was highly influenced by Mairet. Sawyer taught weaving full-time at Hastings School of Art (1943-5) and at Hull School of Art (1945-7). She then taught part-time at Blackburn Technical College (1948-50) and on many weaving summer schools at Loughborough and at Barry, Glamorgan, throughout the 1950s. She received the Gold Medal for Textile Design at Manchester in 1948.
In 1950 Sawyer moved to Beckenham, north Kent (aged 31) and took up a part-time teaching post in the Textiles Department at Camberwell School of Art and Crafts (1950-82), working there on average for over two days per week and becoming more closely involved with the curriculum as an associate lecturer in the early 1970s. Her skilled teaching and unassuming nature influenced a generation of textile students whose careers she followed closely. She set up a loom at her home in Beckenham and for several years in the mid-1950s also used premises in North London rented by Peter Collingwood.

Repair Outlook Data Files (.pst and .ost)
If your Microsoft Outlook Data File (.pst and .ost) won't open, or if you suspect the file is damaged, use the Inbox Repair tool (SCANPST.EXE) to diagnose and repair errors in the data file. The Inbox Repair tool checks the Outlook data files on your computer to see if they're in good shape.
If you're using a Microsoft Exchange account and your offline Outlook Data File (.ost) is missing items, you can safely delete the file. Outlook will recreate the file the next time the program opens.
NOTE: The Inbox Repair tool doesn't connect or analyze any data stored in an Exchange mailbox. The tool only looks for errors (corruption), and there are any, gives you the opportunity to allow the tool to fix those errors
Repair a .pst file
- Exit Outlook and do one of the following:
- Browse to C:\Program Files.or
- Browse to C:\Program Files (x86).
- In the Search box, type SCANPST.EXE.NOTES: If the search doesn't find SCANPST.EXE in one folder, try searching in the other folder mentioned in step 1. Navigate to the folder location based on your version of Outlook.
- Outlook 2016: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16
- Outlook 2013: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15
- Outlook 2010: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14
- Outlook 2007: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12
- Open SCANPST.EXE.
- In the Enter the name of the file you want to scan box, enter the name of the .pst file you want the tool to check, or choose Browse to select the file.NOTE: By default, a new log file is created during the scan. You can choose Options and opt not to have a log created, or you can have the results appended to an existing log file.
- Choose Start to begin the scan.
- If the scan finds errors, choose Repair to start the process to fix them.NOTE: The scan creates a backup file during the repair process. To change the default name or location of this backup file, in the Enter name of backup file box, enter a new name, or choose Browse to select the file you want to use.
- When the repair is complete, start Outlook with the profile associated with the Outlook Data File you just repaired.
Other Outlook folders
In the Folder Pane, you might see a folder named Recovered Personal Folders that contains your default Outlook folders or a Lost and Found folder. Although the repair process might recreate some of the folders, they may be empty. The Lost and Found folder contains any folders and items recovered by the repair tool that Outlook can't place in their original structure.
Create new data file
You can create a new Outlook Data File and drag the items in the Lost and Found folder into the new data file. After you've moved all the items, you can remove the Recovered Personal Folders (.pst) file, including the Lost and Found folder.
Recover items from the backup (.bak) file
If you can open the original Outlook Data File, you might be able to recover additional items. The Inbox Repair tool creates a backup file with the same name as the original, but with a .bak extension, and saves it in the same folder. There may be items in the backup file that you might be able to recover that the Inbox Repair tool couldn't.
- Browse to the folder where the .pst file is stored and you'll find the .bak file (for example, email@example.com) created by the Inbox Repair tool.
- Make a copy of the .bak file and rename it with a bak.pst extension. For example, email@example.com.
- Import the bak.pst file into Outlook, and use the Import and Export Wizard to import any additional recovered items into the newly created .pst file.NOTE: Learn how to import a .pst file by reading Import email, contacts, and calendar from an Outlook .pst file.
Recreate an offline Outlook Data File (.ost)
Some account types, such as Microsoft Exchange Server, use an offline Outlook Data File (.ost). This type of data file is a copy of information saved on your mail server. If you encounter problems with an offline Outlook Data File (.ost), the file can be deleted and recreated by downloading a copy of your items again. We don't recommend repairing an offline Outlook Data File, so if your offline data file isn't usable, you should recreate it.
- Exit Outlook.
- Open Control Panel, and in the Search Control Panel box, type Mail, and then choose Mail.
- In the Mail Setup dialog box, choose E-mail Accounts.NOTE: The title bar of the Mail Setup dialog box may contain the name of the current profile. To select a different existing profile, choose Show Profiles, select the profile name, and then choose Properties.
- Choose the Data Files tab, select the Exchange account, and then choose Open File Location on the mini toolbar.NOTE: A File Explorer window opens to the location of the data file for the Exchange account. The Account Settings and Mail Setup dialog boxes will remain open, behind the File Explorer window.
- Close the Account Settings and the Mail Setup dialog boxes, and then return to the File Explorer window.IMPORTANT: Make sure you close these two dialog boxes before you delete the file. If they aren't closed, Windows may display an error message about a conflict.
- In the File Explorer window, right-click the Exchange data file, and then choose Delete.NOTE: The next time you start Outlook, a new .ost file is created for the account.

Nothing against the city, mind you. I've visited. A lovely town, with scenic Niagara Falls right there, some lovely casino resorts across the river in Canada (a whole 'nother country! Who knew?), and no shortage of snow.
But the other night, when they brought in an NHL player with a severed carotid artery suffered in a bizarre on-ice accident, well, I rather suspect the ER doc who was on duty wound up needing a new set of shorts.
Did I mention that it was his Carotid Artery? You know, the one in the neck? (We call it "Big Red.") And it was severed.
Technically, it was only lacerated. The vascular surgeon, Dr Sonya Noor commented that if it was severed, it would have retracted and been technically much more difficult to repair. They had his common carotid cross-clamped for fifteen minutes or so (thank god for a patent circle of willis in a young non-atherosclerotic patient!). Either way, it bled a damn lot.
I've seen my share of vascular injuries. They can be pretty scary. Multiply the stress level by a factor of ten when it's in the neck, and another factor of ten when it's a pro athlete, a celebrity of sorts. If I don't misread the AP report, did he get a trach? I would hope not, but with neck injuries you never know. He's a lucky guy.
The surgeon commented that the artery was "a normal, beautiful artery," which might mean that, unlike most of the vessels she sees, it wasn't crusted with cholesterol and calcium, but also brings to mind the last couple of sharp, penetrating vascular injuries I have seen -- both of them femoral. In both cases the surgeon commented, marveling, that the kitchen knife (or whatever) used to cut the vessel created a cleaner, nicer edge than he was ever able to get using a scalpel in surgery. I guess the soft tissues around the artery bolster it enough to produce that nice crisp cut. Funny.
Man, not the sort of injury you associate with pro sports (even hockey!). Nice job by the ER and surgical team.
And I'm still glad it wasn't me!

I'm so happy I don't work in Buffalo

Today I just happened to see and buy the consumer version of QuikClot that has seen so much successful military use over the last five years. It was in the first aid section at REI forReplyDelete
$10 (a single 3.5"x3.5" sponge). A Google search shows that it is widely available now. I wonder if the trainers and team physicians will make it a point to have QuikClot immediately available now? Are folks seeing it in EMS now? What about in the ER or OR?
Yeah, that injury was nuts. The people I've talked to were there said it was like nothing they've ever seen before. And then to watch him skate off the ice! And to think of how high his HR must have been from all the skating already. *shudder*ReplyDelete
We've actually had plenty of lack for snow this year. Like none. It bites.
- Anonymous2/12/2008 6:50 AM
to anon, re quikclotReplyDelete
Im a US military medic, been to Iraq a couple of times, played with quikclot a bit.
Its not a magic cure, but when used appropriately could help with this patient.
Quikclot causes a lot of problems when used inappropriately. It generates a *LOT* of heat as it absorbs blood to form clots. too much can cause more damage then its worth.
Id advise you to seek some good training before you grab this stuff off the shelf at REI.

A related case to consider: spontaneous suture rupture in a fresh carotid endarterectomy.ReplyDelete
Another reason an accidental severing of an artery could be cleaner is simply speed. I'm sure bolstering the area is part of it, but I would imagine you wield a scalpel a lot slower than you'd have to swing a kitchen knife in order to get through the femoral artery...ReplyDelete
- Anonymous2/12/2008 3:32 PM
I actually saw a similar injury several years ago - at a high school hockey game, of all things. The injured kid was 16 or 17, IIRC. He survived but it was damn scary for the spectators, not to mention his parents who witnessed the whole thing.ReplyDelete
- ladyk732/12/2008 5:18 PM
It is actually the second time this happened in buffalo.ReplyDelete
In 1989 Clint Malarchuk had a similar accident. He nearly died on the ice.
I am from Buffalo, and we have our own casinos now!
I was in high school at that time.ReplyDelete
I saw where the wind chills are below 30 - I do not miss that here in breezy carolina.
Lady- "we" don't have our own casinos. The Native Americans do!ReplyDelete
I live outside Buffalo and it was all over the news. They said an ER staff member had been in the lounge and witnessed it. He then ran out and said that there was a devestating arterial bleed coming in. They got everything ready for him before he rolled in. The hospital is very close to the arena (a few blocks). He is still a very lucky man! I believe the last that I heard was that he was doing very well.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous9/12/2008 11:15 AM
Yes, PE Mommy, he's doing quite well and is going to play in the upcoming season that starts in October (can you imagine the guts it takes to go back on the ice? I bet you his coach won't give him much ice time whenever his team plays in Buffalo)ReplyDelete

Off-Duty Policing: Should You or Shouldn't You?
Dr. Richard Weinblatt, "The Cop Doc"
While crime has gone down, according to published crime statistics, incidents involving assaults and worse on crime fighters are still prevalent. Luckily, in the face of all the danger, law enforcers have not backed down and continue to honor their oath and their mission. But what of incidents that occur when you are off duty. The question comes up regarding off-duty policing: should you or shouldn't you step in and save the day?
This article covers a topic that I have spoken about numerous times with many law enforcers; especially those that are new to the cop career. This is useful stuff to ponder, especially if you're a newbie, and a great reminder for the veterans.
Officers, deputy sheriffs, and state troopers are by their nature type A, take charge type of personalities. The police run forward when all others run away. While that is admirable courage and honor are traits needed to be an effective an honorable keeper of the law enforcement flame it does no good to make the situation worse. Sacrifice with no appreciable gain is not what other law enforcers and family members want to see.
When deciding whether to intervene, here are some items to consider.
1) Need. Ask yourself is it necessary for you to intervene at that moment. Do you hear sirens in the distance that indicate that uniformed, on duty officers or deputies are about to arrive and take control of the situation. Does it appear that the bad guy or guys are about to leave the vicinity and that the threat to people has dissipated.
Officers and deputies newer to the career should really take heed of this one. Rookie officers have long been known to be more eager to get involved than veterans. Additionally, they often do so before they have the requisite experience to determine the real need, as well as the ability to use that not yet garnered valuable experience to guide them through the crisis.
With the advanced training and experience that law enforcement folks get, consider being the world's most proficient witness. As a trained observer, you may be more valuable to the investigation and the successful, safe apprehension of the individuals in a time, place, and manner when the good guys are in control.
2) Authority. Be sure of your states laws and agency's policies regarding off-duty intervention. Some agencies do not allow their officers to have their firearm on them off-duty. Others only grant them police powers while within their employing department's geographical jurisdiction.
If you are travelling out of your area, be familiar with that jurisdiction's stance on off-duty officers carrying concealed weapons and acting under color of law. That is especially true if you are out of state.
Despite the laws and police customs that favor officers carrying firearms on their person around the nation, some jurisdictions have been known to hassle and even criminally charge out of state officers.
3) Equipment. If you do decide to intervene, do you have the tools of the trade that may help you to do the job at hand batter and more safely. On duty officers have all the benefits of being fully equipped: the uniform, bullet resistant vest (I hate the term bulletproof – it does not make a superman where bullets bounce off your chest), semi-automatic firearm, extra high capacity magazines, extra firearms and long weapons, intermediate weaponry, radio communications, backup, and marked unit with emergency lighting. That gives them some advantages that they would not otherwise have.
