In the anime
In the Best Wishes series
Prior to the events of the Best Wishes series and the sixteenth movie, the Genesect Army were created by Team Plasma in their laboratory. After the creation was completed, the Genesect Army attacked them with Techno Blast, which caused Team Plasma to retreat and the Genesect Army, led by the Red Genesect, escaped from the burning lab. After escaping, they attempted to return to their homeland.
Some time later, an image of a Genesect was seen by N on a computer monitor in the ruins of the P2 Laboratory in The Name's N!.
In Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!, the Genesect Army was mentioned by a Plasma Grunt reporting to Ghetsis. Referred to only as "Project G", their current whereabouts were considered unknown.
In Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!, N visited a ruined building, where he found a Patrat and Watchog. When he heard their voices, he experienced a flashback of the Genesect Army destroying the building before flying away.
In Genesect and the Legend Awakened
The Genesect Army appeared in this movie, where they played a major role. They were first seen in a snowy climate as they thought their home was there. As the Red Genesect went to the top part of the mountain, it got caught in an avalanche while the other four Genesect were saved by Mewtwo. Mewtwo explained to them that time had passed since they were last alive. The Red Genesect escaped from the avalanche and Mewtwo wanted the Red Genesect to join its side. However, the Red Genesect refused as it did not want to be ordered to do anything and attacked Mewtwo, to which Mewtwo quickly dodged. The Red Genesect had the other Genesect attack Mewtwo and they then flew off.
Later, they arrived in New Tork City where they went to Pokémon Hills, thinking it was their home. However, the Genesect containing the Douse Drive separated from them and went to a pond where some Oltus flowers were floating in the water. After Ash and Pikachu went up to the Douse Drive Genesect, it folded up in its high-speed form. As Ash was trying to see if the Douse Drive Genesect was awake, the Douse Drive Genesect took flight in the air in with Ash riding on it. After the ride, the Douse Drive Genesect became friends with Ash, Iris, and Cilan. Things went well until the Red Genesect and the Shock Drive Genesect arrived. Ash was excited to see them at first until they attacked him with Signal Beam. Pikachu took on the opposing Genesect but he was no match for them and was easily beaten. The two Genesect then forced the Douse Drive Genesect to attack Ash and his friends. Ash tried getting the Douse Drive Genesect to stop but the Red Genesect's control of the Douse Drive one was too strong. After Mewtwo saved the group from the Genesect's attack, the Genesect retreated.
During the nighttime, the Genesect Army went inside Pokémon Hills where they forced the Pokémon out of there and built a giant nest. Since the bottom part of the nest touched the power generator, it caused the power to flicker. Ash, Iris, Eric, and Sableye went into Pokémon Hills from the basement and noticed the Genesect Army building the nest. They met up with the Douse Drive Genesect who apologized to them for attacking them earlier. The Douse Drive Genesect showed the group the Panna Lotus flowers and told how it bloomed in their home. A Feraligatr living in Pokémon Hills tried to attack the Genesect again but got noticed by the Red Genesect and the Shock Drive Genesect. Feraligatr battled the two but ultimately lost to the Red Genesect's Blaze Kick.
After Mewtwo saved Feraligatr from falling, it battled with the Red Genesect while the other three Genesect approached the group. Mewtwo and the Red Genesect had their battle throughout New Tork City. The other three Genesect stayed behind and attacked the group. The Douse Drive Genesect tried stopping them but they unleashed Techno Blast at the group. However, the group was saved by Crustle's Rock Wrecker. The Pokémon from Pokémon Hills had a big battle with the Genesect Army, where the Red Genesect controlled the Genesect Army to attack the Pokémon. The Douse Drive Genesect went up to a Houndoom when it got near the Panna Lotus flowers, only to get blasted away by Houndoom's Shadow Ball. Ash and his friends then ran to the Douse Drive Genesect to see if it was okay. The battle between the Genesect Army continued, as the Genesect were outnumbered and overpowered, until the Red Genesect arrived and blasted all opposing Pokémon away. When the Genesect Army was about to deliver their final attack, Ash stepped in to protect them. The Douse Drive Genesect in turn stepped in to protect Ash and got badly hit. The Douse Drive Genesect's eyes then got dark. As the Pokémon Hills Pokémon were grieved about the Douse Drive Genesect, the other four Genesect attacked them in formation but Mewtwo protected them from Genesect's attack. Afterwards Mewtwo took on the four Genesect alone. The Douse Drive Genesect suddenly woke up and noticed that the Panna Lotus flowers were destroyed.
The fight between Mewtwo and the four Genesect continued where the normal-colored Genesect wrapped Mewtwo around in a string web, but Mewtwo freed itself with Psystrike and sent the three plummeting down. They crashed onto the power generators which caused an even greater power outage to occur. As fire spreaded out onto the nest, the Douse Drive Genesect flew towards it to prevent the fire from spreading even more. Genesect got assisted by the Pokémon Hills Pokémon. The normal-colored Genesect flew back up and noticed Ash and his friends putting out the fire. Feraligatr and Persian rescued them when they got surrounded by the blue flames. In return for saving them, they saved Ash from getting crushed by a pillar.
As the battle between Mewtwo and the Red Genesect went underway, Ash stepped in to stop them and told Mewtwo that he promised to find the Genesect Army a home, and that every Pokémon belongs somewhere. Despite the normal-colored Genesect realizing the error of their ways, the Red Genesect did not care as he still refused to take any commands. Seeing that the Red Genesect stubbornly refused to listen, Mewtwo took the Red Genesect all the way up to the atmosphere. As they watched over the Pokémon world, they noticed a sunrise there and the Red Genesect finally changed its views. With that accomplished, both Mewtwo and the Red Genesect rapidly fell back to the Pokémon world but got saved by a sphere of water created by all the Pokémon Hills Pokémon. After this, Ash suddenly realized the perfect place for the Genesect to make into their new habitat: Absentia Natural Park, where the Panna Lotuses bloomed, since they have been around since the Genesect were last alive. And so the Genesect Army finally found a home, with both the Douse Drive Genesect and Mewtwo thanking Ash and his friends.
Personality and characteristics
The Red Genesect is far more aggressive and antagonistic than its companions. It possesses the ability to force the other Genesect to follow its orders against their will, and often uses this power to gain assistance in its own attacks. It is the last of the Genesect to listen to reason, stubbornly hanging on to its anger at its perceived enemies until the very end.
The Shock Drive, Chill Drive, and Burn Drive Genesect all exhibit aggressive personalities, but to a lesser degree than the Red Genesect. The three commonly follow their leader's orders but come to their senses more quickly. Their aggressiveness was caused by their poor vision and confusion over their location of their homeland, as they were unable to distinguish tall structures and objects from the stone pillars of their homeland, which led to the attack on New Tork City. While the Red Genesect and the other Genesect were focused on their mission, the Genesect containing the Douse Drive wasn't so sure, leading it to form a friendship with Ash.
Unlike the others, the Douse Drive Genesect's personality is timid and kind. It is not aggressive to those around it and simply wants to go back to its home. When it saw the Oltus flowers in Pokémon Hills, it exhibited childlike glee. It did not attack the people and Pokémon around it unless being forced by the Red Genesect; otherwise, it actively protected innocent bystanders from its companions' attacks. The Douse Drive Genesect is also noticeably smaller than its companions.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — While state and federal politicians consider changes to gun laws, a group of Minnesota lawmakers want to improve mental health care in schools.
Sen. Kathy Sheran unveiled a bill Friday that would give schools an extra $10 million over the next two years to bring in mental health specialists. The bill would also provide more training to mental health professionals handling psychotic episodes, and resources for earlier treatment of teens experiencing a crisis.
Sheran says mental health is one factor in mass shootings that the state needs to address. The Mankato Democrat and colleagues say schools are the best place to catch mental illness before a student becomes violent.
Sue Abderholden, executive director of Minnesota's National Alliance on Mental Illness, says only 5 percent of the mentally ill are violent.

Greenwich dominates Class LL championship meet
MIDDLETOWN -- Don't let the point totals fool or dissuade you.
In reality it was a singular afternoon for both the Greenwich High School and Fairfield Prep boys swim teams at the Class LL state championship at the Wesleyan University pool.
Greenwich was an incredible machine winning 10 of the 12 events to score an amazing 913 points. That's 21 of the last 22 Class LL titles if you're scoring at home. Enough tradition to make the New York Yankees jealous.
"It was a very satisfying meet," Greenwich veteran head coach Terry Lowe said. "I felt this group had the potential to be great. Our frontline talent and the depth of this squad are tremendous things to have. We did nearly everything we wanted to."
Fairfield Prep more than earned its runnerup plaque with 698 points. The critical statistic was Prep finishing 313 points better than third place Glastonbury (385).
Staples (369) was fourth followed by Manchester (256), Newtown (252), Ridgefield (248.5), Cheshire (245.5). Amity Regional (236.5) and Trumbull (229) completed the top 10.
"Greenwich is a great team. And they make us a better team," said Prep head coach Rick Hutchinson. "I couldn't be happier with our performance. After all, we broke two state records in events we finished second in."
It was indeed recordmania at the Freeman Athletic Center pool.
Greenwich lowered five state records and six Class LL marks in its tour de force performance.
Prep was below both tate and Class LL record times while being topped by GHS in 200 yard freestyle relay and 400 yard free relay.
Junior Bryce Keblish lowered the LL mark by .65 seconds while winning the 200-yard individual medley in 1:49.46. Prep's Andrew Grinalds (1:50.11, 2009) had the old mark.
"To swim state record times is special. It was a brilliant day for our kids. Keblish's performance in the IM and the relays was a grand highlight," Hutchinson said.
But it wasn't enough to stop the Greenwich express from its appointed crown.
GHS sent the message early by capturing the opening event, the 200 medley relay in 1:31.99. GHS won the event by five seconds and lowered their own state record by 3 seconds to 1:31.99.
"We shuffled the lineup there because we wanted some kids to be strong at the end of the meet," Lowe said. "But we wanted to make a statement from the start."
Fairfield Prep tried to keep pace.
Nicholas Wargo captured the 200 yard free in 1:41.85. Keblish (1:49.46) then out duelled Greenwich's Thomas Dillinger (1:49.68) to take the 200 IM.
But GHS' Ed Moss answered by lowering his own Class LL mark in the 50 free by winning in 20.78.
After the break, Greenwich continued rolling. Sophomore John Montesi captured the 100 butterfly in 50.33 just outtouching Prep's Keblish (50.40).
GHS senior Alex Lewis then won the 100 free in a new state record time of 44.57 just ahead of teammate Moss (46.11) as well as Prep's Bjorn Davis (46.38) and Wargo (46.59).
More importantly, Lewis broke a 25-year-old Greenwich school mark in the 100 free.
"The 100 yard freestyle is perhaps the greatest record in swimming. And Alex got it," Lowe said. "It's not every day someone can break a 25-year-old mark."
After seven events, with the LL diving points added in, Greenwich led Prep, 575-415.
Dillinger got his Class LL first place medal in the 500 yard freestyle, winning in 4:35.88 ahead of Prep's Brandon Cole (4:38.08).
Norwalk/McMahon junior Anthony Dell'Isola took third place in 4:38.48 despite racing from lane 8.
In the point standings after eight of 12 events, Greenwich led Prep, 635-467 in the meet that scored 24 places in each event.
The records continued to fall in the 200 freestyle relay as the Greenwich foursome of Nicholas Hyden, Julian Fraser, Moss and Dillinger won in a state mark time of 1:24.19.
Prep's quartet of Bjorn Davis, Brandon Cole, Nicholas Wargo and Keblish were runnerup in record time of 1:24.24.
Amity Regional was a distant third in 1:29.91.
Greenwich's Lewis then lowered his own Class LL and state mark by .29 in capturing the 100 backstroke in 48.59. GHS sophomore Montesi was runnerup in 50.44.
Iain Edmundson put an individual ribbon on the victory by capturing the 100 breaststroke in 58.36 ahead of runnerup John Hoin (59.04) from Prep.
Greenwich's closing salvo was as strong as its opening gambit.
The LL mark was lowered nearly five seconds and the state mark was crushed by 2 ½ seconds in the 400 yard relay by both victorious GHS (3:02.60) and runnerup Prep (3:03.22). Greenwich swam to victory behind the quartet of Montesi, Moss, Dillinger and Lewis
"This is one of Fairfield Prep's best teams. They drive us to records," Lowe said. "Having them battle us side by side made it a great meet for both."
And Prep has the proper perspective on the rivalry.
"We will continue to do what we do," Hutchinson said. "There are so many great boys swim programs in the state so second place in Class LL has meaning. We had great swims. So the times and the places will fall into place. That was what I asked from our boys and they performed."
As for Greenwich, the Cardinals have frankly run out of room to display the decade upon decade of state title plaques.
"What we have is a record board that we started in 1964," Lowe said. "Each team members names go up there. Once you're on it, you're there forever. We have a list of state titlists on the board. That's all we need. We've had a lot of people take photos of that board over the decades for their own kids."

Last week I left my Alliance guild.
It wasn't because of drama. It wasn't because I wanted more progression. It wasn't because I didn't enjoy playing with the people there. It all came down to schedule. After three and a half years of raiding Friday and Saturday nights, I decided I couldn't do it anymore. I'm no social butterfly, but raiding those times did have a definite impact on how much time I got to spend with my friends and family. Over the last several months I had been feeling increasingly bad about the whole situation. I felt guilty when I turned down invites from my friends to go out so I could raid. Likewise I felt like I was letting down my guild the times I declined raids so I could go out. It started to feel like a no-win situation, where I would always have to choose between letting down my friends or my guild.
Just as my feelings of guilt and frustration at trying to balance raiding and real life were reaching a boiling point, I saw a very appealing recruitment ad from a guild looking for a resto Druid. They were at a very similar progression level, had raid times that would work really well for me and as a bonus, I was already somewhat familiar with some of the members through WoW blogs and Twitter. It gave me the push I needed. Though I loved raiding with aus the raid schedule was really stressing me out and I needed a change. I made the decision to leave.
That week was quite the emotional roller coaster for me. The first thing I did was write a message to my raid leader, letting him know I would be leaving soon. I wrote the message then sat in front of my computer sobbing for 20 minutes before I hit send. The next day I sent messages to the rest of the officers which involved more crying. After that, I put in my application to Apotheosis. I was really excited about writing and submitting my app. I've always loved tests (yes, I'm a nerd) and I looked at the application process as a big test. Could I avoid the errors that so many applicants make? No spelling mistakes, full answers to all the questions asked and responses that convince people I know what I'm doing? Apparently I could. After some back and forth on the forums and an interview on Mumble, I was offered a trial spot in the guild. I was really pleased things had gone so well. The following weekend I had my final raid with aus, said my goodbyes and server transferred Jasyla. I got a lot of nice messages and replies to my goodbye post on the forums which, of course, induced more crying.
It was a hard decision, but ultimately I think it was the right one. My first raid-free weekend in a long time was a really nice change of pace. I know my fiancé appreciated not being abandoned for a raid on Friday night. I'll miss raiding with aus – there are many great people and players there that I both like and respect. I'll miss my healing team, who have been healing together for so long. We avoided healing assignments like the plague, but we still kept people healed somehow and had fun doing it. I'll miss the chatter about chicken salt and raiding without pants, songs about soft kitties, professor putricide imitations and all the awful, awful puns. I've got a lot of great memories and I will keep in touch though.
Now I'm focused on impressing my new guildmates and healing the hell out of them in raids. Everyone has been really welcoming. My first two raids with Apotheosis were fun and successful. I got a couple new boss kills and was fortunate enough to be a part of the guild's first heroic Maloriak kill. I can't wait to start working on our next heroic and be part of the learning process from start to finish.

Le Nid was created by Christian Ghion and Michelin star awarded, star chef Pierre Gagnaire. The project is aimed at meeting the needs of its preparation in the kitchen, of serving it at the table and of its individual consumption. This attention to both the food itself and the ways in which it can be best appreciated and enjoyed is becoming increasingly widespread. Le Nid is composed of a container, a trestle and a ring. Made of stoneware, it is possible to use the container in the oven and in a bain-marie, using the steel ring as a support. Then, when it's time to serve, the container is placed on a stainless steel perch that keeps it raised off the plate, for reasons of both convenience and to properly highlight the preparation. The outer surface of the container is rough to ensure stability while cooking and when served on its perch.
Born in 1958 in Montmorency, France, Christian Ghion received a Law degree in Paris in 1982. He later studied at the École du Louvre and the École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle (ENSCI), graduating in 1987. That same year, along with Patrick Nadeau, he set up the Ghion-Nadeau practice. The firm's work on design objects, furniture, backs and interior design allowed Ghion to start making a name for himself as a designer: in 1990, the 'Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris' award was bestowed on him.

Subaru outback llbean 3.0 engine=spark plug replacement
how do you replace the spark plugs on the 3.0 engine with limited fire wall clearance. Special tool?, sawsall?, jack engine?, lower drive train?. Another $400dealer service issue?Help please.
Have you tried yet? It really should not be that hard.
IIRC the 3.0l H6's stroke is actually shorter than the 2.5l's H4 stroke. So there may actually be more room.
Plus - I was able to change the plus myself on a 2.5l Forester. That means I had enough room with a wider engine in a more narrow engine bay.
Your spark plugs should be a *lot* easier than that, and I managed.
A low-profile ratchet might help, and I used two 2" ratchet extensions. You may not even need that many tools.0
To do the plugs on my Outback's 2.5L, I would attach the following in this order: plug socket, u-joint, short (2 or 3"?) extension, long (6") extension, ratchet. I also removed the air cleaner on the passenger side and the battery/washer fluid on the driver side. It was not too difficult, but getting them (plugs) back in was a pain.2014 Audi Q7 TDI, 2008 and 2013 Subaru Forester(s), 1969 Chevrolet C20 Pickup, 1969 Ford Econoline 100, 1976 Ford F250 Pickup0
sorry not the same0
Yeah, I know, but I figured I would throw out the info as I am not sure how drastically the 3.0 differs in terms of clearance, etc. All I know is that it adds two extra cylinders and has the same frame with which to contend..... :sick:2014 Audi Q7 TDI, 2008 and 2013 Subaru Forester(s), 1969 Chevrolet C20 Pickup, 1969 Ford Econoline 100, 1976 Ford F250 Pickup0
My wife's previous car, a 2002 Legacy L, was exactly the same.
I did the plugs twice, and it was no big deal.
It was harder on the 98 Forester, with a more narrow engine bay, but I still managed to do that myself, also twice.0
I tried to replace all 4 plugs one Sunday afternoon. After unhooking the entire air intake system and pulling on the boots- like the plugs were attached with expoxy, I finally gotthe right side in. I looked at the left- and gave up until I had more time. What is the secret on the drivers side? There is no room! Do I need to remove both the washer reservoir and the battery to get at the front? Then what do I do about the back? I just hope this side the wires are not "glued" on!
Any help is greatly appreciated!0
If you have ramps or jack stands try accessing them from underneath.0
I am not sure how that generation is arranged as compared to the prior one, but that is exactly what I did - remove the battery and reservoir.
The first time I replaced them, the boots were a royal PITA. I ended up tearing one before it finally let loose. After that, I just planned on replacing the wires along with the plugs, though they were easier to remove on subsequent tries.2014 Audi Q7 TDI, 2008 and 2013 Subaru Forester(s), 1969 Chevrolet C20 Pickup, 1969 Ford Econoline 100, 1976 Ford F250 Pickup0
Apply some di-electric grease before you reinstall them.0
It took about 3 hours. I took out the battery and washer reservoir and the fron plug was right there. After much pulling and tugging- it finally popped off and I got the plug out and put the new one in. I thought the back one was going to take me all day- no room! I picked up my flat iron crow bar and carefully put the long end just behind of the boot head. With my other hand supporting the other side, I gave it the pressure and "POP" it came right off! Fitting the 3 adapters and the plug extractor into the plug hole, I was able to get the last one out. If I had discovered that trick, I would have started that on the first plug and had not nearly the aggravation. Thanks for all the recommendations and help. Until I see you again in 35000 miles....0

Hello, and a very warm welcome to Pretoria, South Africa's Jacaranda City! Time your arrival to coincide with the blossoming Jacaranda trees in mid-October for a truly enchanting welcome to the city. Your first few weeks in this handsome place will likely throw up many questions, such as "which is the safest suburb to live in?" or "does it really reach over 40°C in the summer?". The InterNations expat community here in Pretoria is a large and dynamic network of people who understand your questions and are keen to share their tried and tested solutions with you.
With InterNations, you never stand alone. Whether you move to another city or go on a business trip somewhere — our communities are there to make you feel at home wherever you are in the world.

R&B singer Maxwell loses his voice, cancels tour
NEW YORK (AP) -- R&B singer Maxwell has cancelled his short U.S. tour after developing vocal swelling and hemorrhaging.
A representative for the singer said Friday that he has been advised by doctors to rest and undergo treatment. Maxwell's six-date summer tour had shows planned for Los Angeles, Atlanta and Newark, N.J. for July and August.
Maxwell said in the statement that cancelling the tour "sucks" and he plans to hit the road when his new album, "blackSUMMERS'night," is released later this year.
The 39-year-old made his return to music in 2009 after a seven-year break with the platinum album "BLACKsummers'night." It won the singer-songwriter two Grammy Awards, among other accolades.
The statement also said refunds are available at the point of purchase.

American Apparel— which is routinely criticized for its young, half-naked, hipster models—just released a campaign that's the opposite of all that: It stars its oldest model yet, Jacky.
How old is American Apparel's newest edition? Dov Charney texted Business Insider, "You don't ask a lady her age."
Click here for more photos>
The retailer introduced its newest model on its Facebook page:
There was something so compelling about Jacky's look and energy when we first spotted her in a New York restaurant this winter, we introduced ourselves and pulled up a chair. During a long discussion that touched on everything from career choices and nutrition to insights on relationships, age and beauty, we asked if she would consider being photographed by us. We were thrilled when she agreed. Here are some photos we've taken of Jacky over the last few months showing how she likes to wear American Apparel. We hope you enjoy them.
American Apparel, which uses the age-friendly phrase "advanced" to describe the new line, hasn't completely changed its day-glo colored stripes. In spite of her age, Jacky, a natural beauty with thick gray hair, is photographed in the same poses — legs akimbo — as her younger counterparts.
While some Facebook commenters praise the refreshing and unexpected campaign ("I wish i can age as gracefully as she did!!!! stunning pictures!!!!!!"), others are unsurprisingly coarse ("AHAHAHAHAA NO.")

Using a background screening company has become a routine part of the hiring process for American employers. According to a recent survey by the Society for Human Resource Management, 47 percent of employers conduct credit and criminal background checks on job applicants.
But the screening industry has lately been taking a bit of a battering. The National Consumer Law Center reported in April that screening firms—or "consumer reporting agencies," or CRAs—confuse people with similar names, list one offense multiple times and fail to indicate that a person was later cleared. In August, HireRight Solutions of Tulsa, Oklahoma, agreed to pay $2.6 million to settle Federal Trade Commission allegations that it violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act, or FCRA, by failing to use reasonable procedures to ensure the accuracy of the information it was selling.
Now some experts are suggesting that employers should be more diligent in hiring screening firms—that they should, in effect, screen the screeners. "The employer really needs to kick the tires and make sure they ask enough questions," says Les Rosen, CEO of Employment of Screening Resources in Novato, California.
The HireRight case has caused a particular stir. The $2.6 million civil penalty was the second-largest ever in an FTC enforcement action alleging FCRA violations. "Clients have been asking about it," Rosen says. "They want to make sure nothing is happening similar to what FTC alleged."
Among other things, HireRight was accused of failing to ensure that information in background reports was current and reflected updates, failing to prevent the same criminal offense information from being included in a report multiple times, and in numerous cases even including the records of the wrong person in reports. It was the first time the FTC has charged a background screening firm with violating the FCRA.
"It's difficult enough in this economy to find employment," Anthony Rodriguez, a staff attorney at the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection, told the Washington Post. "People shouldn't have to worry about dealing with background screening information that's inaccurate."
Montserrat Miller, a partner with the law firm Arnell Golden Gregory in Washington cautions against reading too much into the HireRight case, noting that details of the company's alleged wrongdoing never became public because the case was settled. "This is the FTC saying, 'Here are some of the things we're looking at,' " she says.
But Miller adds that employers can certainly use the case as "a template to talk to CRAs about the issues raised in the settlement. They can ask, 'What are your policies and practices in these areas?'
The National Association of Professional Background Screeners offers an accreditation program for background screeners. The program is fairly new, with only about two dozen companies having so far been accredited, but Rosen sees it as an effective way of giving employers some peace of mind.
"The accreditation process is extremely intensive," he says. "It's the best way of ensuring that a background screening firm is providing accurate information in compliance with all the various laws that are involved."

A 6-year-old girl was killed Friday in a head-on crash on Brices Creek Road, and her mother has been charged with driving while impaired.
A 6-year-old girl was killed Friday in a head-on crash on Brices Creek Road, and her mother has been charged with driving while impaired.
The State Highway Patrol identified the victim as Alanna Garris, a passenger who died Friday after the 4 p.m. crash while riding with her mother and brother.
Her mother, Amber Sandvig, 24, of Frontier Lane, New Bern, was charged with DWI, driving left of center and a child restraint violation involving the dead girl and another child in the car.
Sgt. C.D. Toler of the Highway Patrol said he and investigating Trooper J.A. Magana will meet with Craven County District Attorney Scott Thomas Monday morning to discuss the case, including any additional charges.
The sergeant said Sandvig remained hospitalized at Vidant Medical Center in Greenville, where she was airlifted by rescue helicopter Pedro after the crash.
The driver of the second car in the crash, Julie Payne, also was taken to the Greenville hospital. The Highway Patrol did not have her address or her condition.
Toler said a second child in the Sandvig car, 2-year-old Allan Garris, was taken to CarolinaEast Medical Center in New Bern. His injuries were not known at press time.
Toler said the crash happened when Sandvig was traveling south on Brices Creek Road in a gold Mazda and crossed the center line, colliding with a northbound black Cadillac Escalade driven by Payne.
He said the crash happened near Marion Lane.
The dead child would have been 7 years old on Aug. 15.
Toler said both children in the Sandvig car were improperly restrained.

U.S. soldier kills 16 Afghanistan civilians in unprovoked attack
KABUL, Afghanistan — A U.S. soldier killed 16 Afghan civilians on Sunday, including three women and nine children, in an unprovoked attack in southern Kandahar province, Afghan officials said.
Five more people also were wounded in the shooting at Belandi-Pul village of the Panjway district when the soldier entered homes and opened fire, according to a statement from President Hamid Karzai's office.
"This intentional killing and terror is an unforgivable act," said Karzai, who has sent two high-level delegations to investigate.
The attack threatens to further worsen relations between ISAF and Afghans, already badly strained by the recent burning of Korans and other religious material by U.S. military personnel. That incident, at the U.S.-run Bagram airbase, north of Kabul, sparked a series of demonstrations and attacks on bases belonging to the U.S. coalition that left at least 30 Afghans killed and 100 injured.
The White House issued a written statement from President Barack Obama. It read:
"I am deeply saddened by the reported killing and wounding of Afghan civilians. I offer my condolences This incident is tragic and shocking, and does not represent the exceptional character of our military and the respect that the United States has for the people of Afghanistan. I fully support Secretary Panetta's and General Allen's commitment to get the facts as quickly as possible and to hold accountable anyone responsible."
Later the White House issued a second statement saying that Obama had called Karzai to express his condolences.
Initial accounts said the U.S. soldier left his base at 3 a.m. and walked to nearby homes where he opened fire. There were widely varying claims about the number of dead and wounded.
"Seven are believed to have been killed and eight wounded," said Javed Faisal, a spokesman for the Kandahar governor earlier today. "The number of dead could rise."
In a statement, a Taliban spokesman put the number killed at 50.
A spokesman for the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the U.S.-led coalition in Afghanistan, confirmed that the shooting had taken place, but said he could not confirm the number of dead or wounded.
"A United States service member was detained today in connection with an incident that resulted in Afghan casualties in Kandahar province," said Major Jason Waggoner, an ISAF spokesman. "There were multiple civilians wounded, but I don't have a specific number. All the wounded have been taken to coalition medical facilities and are currently being treated."
ISAF commander, Marine Gen. John R. Allen, said he was shocked and saddened to hear of the attack, which he described in a statement as "deeply appalling.
"I offer my profound regret and deepest condolences to the victims and their families," said Allen. "I pledge to the noble people of Afghanistan my commitment to a rapid and thorough investigation."
The only previous documented case of an unprovoked U.S. military attack on Afghan civilians came in 2010, when an Army Stryker brigade killed 3 people, apparently for sport.
The U.S. embassy offered its condolences to the victims, and said in a statement that it was "saddened by this violent act against our Afghan friends."
The embassy said U.S. forces "are providing the highest level of care" for the injured. "We are still attempting to ascertain the facts," the embassy said.
Jan Agha, who lives near the site of the incident, told McClatchy the U.S. soldier attacked two houses in the village of Gerambai as well as two houses in Belandi-Pul, four kilometers away, including the home of his brother-in-law, Mohammad Naim. He confirmed the government account of dead and injured.
"In Belandi, four civilians were martyred (killed), and five wounded," said Agha. He said his brother-in-law, Naim, and Naim's son and daughter were among the wounded in Belandi.
"In the house next to his, Sayed Jan's house, four people were killed and two were wounded," he added.
Twelve people were killed in Gerambai, Agha said - 11 in a house
belonging to a farmer named Haji Wazir, who was away at the time.
"Their rooms were set on fire after they were killed," Agha said. "I saw the house that was burnt," he added. "This wasn't the work of just one person."
However, Captain Justin Brockhoff, a Kandahar-based spokesman for ISAF joint command, said ISAF had no information that would point to multiple people being involved in the attack.
The motive for the attack was not clear, Brockhoff said, "and we can't really speculate."

I don't know if you've noticed, either because you haven't paid close attention or don't live in one of the areas currently being bombarded with ads, but the Mormon church has launched a flashy new public relations campaign. The Mormon church running ads is not new, but an article by The New York Times' Laurie Goodstein explains why this campaign is different:
Brandon Burton, president and general manager of Bonneville Communications, an advertising agency owned by the church, said that the church's previous, long-running media campaign promoted the church's doctrine, providing a toll-free number to call for a free Bible or Book of Mormon. However, this new campaign introduces doctrine only if a viewer seeks out the Web site mormon.org.
The Prop 8 battle has brought some more scrutiny on the church. This isn't really a criticism, but Goodstein only touches on how the church's advertising campaigns have evolved in various places. I would have enjoyed more background on the history here. Anyway, Goodstein explains why the church is taking a new tack:
After Sunday worship in recent months, Mormon bishops around the country gathered their congregations for an unusual PowerPoint presentation to unveil the church's latest strategy for overcoming what it calls its "perception problem."
Top Mormon leaders had hired two big-name advertising agencies in 2009, Ogilvy & Mather and Hall & Partners, to find out what Americans think of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Using focus groups and surveys, they found that Americans who had any opinion at all used adjectives that were downright negative: "secretive," "cultish," "sexist," "controlling," "pushy," "anti-gay."
She also explains what the new campaign looks like:
On seeing these results, some of those watching the presentation booed while others laughed, according to people at the meetings. But then they were told that the church was ready with a response: a multimillion-dollar television, billboard and Internet advertising campaign that uses the tagline, "I'm a Mormon." The campaign, which began last year but was recently extended to 21 media markets, features the personal stories of members who defy stereotyping, including a Hawaiian longboard surfing champion, a fashion designer and single father in New York City and a Haitian-American woman who is mayor of a small Utah city.
One interesting detail that Goodstein doesn't mention here is that maybe the most talked about aspect of the new campaign is the fact that the LDS church managed to snag Brandon Flowers, lead singer of rock band The Killers and Mormon, to do one of the ads. (We learn he's even named one of his children Ammon.) There's no shortage of Mormon celebrities and artists, but the really high profile ones tend to be ex-Mormons or have a very complicated relationship with the church. (See Ryan Gosling, Eliza Dushku, Aaron Eckhart, Neil LaBute, Walter Kirn et al.) Flowers is a rare bird in that he's a genuine celebrity publicly speaking out about his Mormonism. Anyway, the Flowers ad made something of a splash and I'm surprised it goes unmentioned -- espeicially since The Grey Lady has reported on his religion in the past.
Speaking of well-known Mormons, Goodstein raises some interesting questions about how the two Mormon presidential candidates relate to the church's new campaign:
Church leaders like Mr. Allen say that the timing and tenor of the campaign have nothing to do with the political campaigns of two Mormons running for president: Mitt Romney, the putative front-runner, and Jon M. Huntsman Jr., both former Republican governors. To avoid the percep-tion that it was trying to influence politics, the church is intentionally not airing the campaign in states that have early primaries, going so far as to cancel their advertising in Las Vegas when Nevada moved up its primary, said Mr. Allen.
And yet, the church's campaign could prove to be a pivotal factor in the race for the presidency. The Mormon image problem is a problem not only for the church, but also for Mr. Romney.
That's interesting. When I was working for National Review in 2007 the church requested an editorial meeting with the publication. I was there and met with some of the church's General Authorities. They weren't pushing a political agenda at all, so much as to say that the church was well aware that Romney's candidacy had raised a lot of questions about the church and that they were happy to be of assistance answering questions. While the new ad campaign is decidedly non-political, it's bizarre to say the timing of the campaign has nothing to do with the increased scrutiny brought on by the campaign or for representatives of the church to say they're not sensitive about Mormonism intersects with politics. Indeed, she later quotes someone as saying: "You would think ... that the higher Romney's profile, the better it is for the church. It's actually the opposite."
Then there's this passage:
In many ways, Mr. Romney and Mr. Huntsman embody the Mormon archetype: clean-cut, Republican American family men. The church's campaign is designed to introduce a rainbow of Mormon faces who counter the stereotype. These Mormons are not only white, but also Asian, black and Hispanic, and from countries other than the United States. There are plenty of traditional two-parent families, but there are also single parents, working women and stay-at-home fathers, and even an interracial couple — all family arrangements rare among Mormons until recently.
It's true that the LDS church's has had serious issues race relations and the changes to the doctrine not allowing blacks to hold the priesthood in the church didn't occur that long ago in historical terms. It's also true to some extent that Mormon stereotypes exist for a reason, particularly if you spend some time in small town Idaho or Utah suburbs. But commenting on the evolution of stereotypes in vague temporal terms is something that I think journalists should do with more precision. It's also a missed opportunity for discussing some of the church's unique doctrinal beliefs -- for instance, the church's beliefs about marriage explain a lot about family arrangements in the church.
These (relatively) minor criticisms aside, on the whole it's really well done as you would expect from Laurie Goodstein. Lots of great quotes and background, and the issue of of Mormon doctrinal differences is handled reasonably well. It's well worth reading.
And speaking of Mormons and politics, also worth noting is this article from The Daily Caller -- "What would the White House be like with a Mormon president? Pretty much the same":
"There'd be a Book of Mormon, maybe, in the nightstand," said Brooks, grasping at straws to come up with some things that would change. Of course, she pointed out, there's already one in the nightstand in every Marriott hotel room in America.
Mormons obey the Word of Wisdom, a religious law that prohibits consumption of alcohol, tobacco, coffee, tea and illegal drugs. But does that mean that under a President Romney or Huntsman, the White House would go dry and sleep-deprived aides wouldn't be permitted to refuel with coffee?
"I would absolutely predict and bet a thousand bucks that you would not have a dry White House," Chuck Warren, a Republican strategist and a practicing Mormon, told The Daily Caller.
It's probably not too revelatory an article for GetReligions' savvy consumers of religion news, but I bet the Daily Caller article will answer a lot of questions for a lot of people.

The mysterious Clegg boson particle, the one that scientists think may be responsible for keeping the Tories alive, was detected in Westminster today. It bears a little understood relationship to the Cable particle, which was once thought to have certain characteristic principles. This hypothesis is now believed to be in doubt. Scientist are now looking at the older Ashdown particle to see if this offers any new insights. The Kennedy particle, a pale red shadow of its former self, can be found on media chat show studio sofas all over Britain, but it is no longer believed to have any momentum or significance, and accelerating it has proved an intractable problem.
Research into deliberate urine retention, as practised by the Prime Minister, David Cameron to sustain concentration in important meetings has now shown that the practice actually increases the possibility of serious mistakes of judgement, and induces a craven submission to expediency in the face of vociferous minorities. This may go some way to explaining recent unfortunate events in Europe. Being bitten by a British Bulldog while practising urine retention will produce completely foreseeable, unpleasant and damaging consequences.
Media journalists and presenters may be professional communicators but are frequently deficient in their grasp of English.
They may be paid to choose their words imaginatively and carefully but they are locked into tired, repetitive phraseology.
They may be political reporters and commentators but they are as cliché-ridden as sports journalists.
They may have the infinite richness of English grammar, syntax and vocabulary from which to craft their introductions but are reduced to constant tedious use of the may be – but formulation.
I may be a "grumpy old git with a blog" – a recent and accurate description of me on Twitter – but I could avoid the repetitive and usually inaccurate use of may be –but quite easily if I had to write a few paragraphs on The English Language in media-speak …
Wait a bloody minute – has the verbal plague begun to affect me to?

Groupon has halted gun-related promotions such as deals for shooting ranges and concealed weapons courses in the wake of last month's massacre in Newtown, Conn.
Groupon Inc. spokeswoman Julie Mossler said Tuesday that the move is based on the deals' performance as well as "current customer and merchant feedback." These, she says, have made it "clear they're not a fit right now."
The Chicago company declined to comment further and did not mention the Newtown shootings in its reasoning. There, 20-year-old Adam Lanza killed his mother, 20 children and six educators at an elementary school before shooting himself.
The event has intensified the gun control debate in the U.S. and has led other companies, such as Dick's Sporting Goods, to scale back gun-related business activity, at least temporarily.
