I've just come to realize that I'm not happy with just one partner. I mean, I am for a time but then I feel as if I want more. My boyfriend makes me happy but I need more, how do I convey this effectively?
For right now, that's the most important question for me and I'm sort of freaking out.. I love him and I want to be with him, but I also need to concern myself with me. Thanks in advance..
A couple of important things to remember:
1. Be honest. What you have written here is a great starting point
2. Be kind. Your partner might have some difficulty and take some time to be constructive about what you are saying. Give them a break and let them work through their process.
3. Be informed. For me, I would want to know what I am actually proposing. Read through these forums, check out some articles on non-monogamy, get an idea of what you are hoping for. Note: I am not telling you that you should hit him with this stuff... just have some answers in case he has some questions.
This will hopefully take several conversations so don't expect there to be some great revelation when you bring this up.

Graphic Photos Found in Robyn Gardner Caseby Free Britney at . Comments
Graphic photos found on the camera of a man Robyn Gardner was with have deepened the mystery surrounding the Maryland woman's disappearance.
Robyn was supposed to be in Orlando with her parents - or so she told her boyfriend, Richard Forester. In reality, she went on a vacation to Aruba.
Now the 35-year-old is missing and presumed dead. Gary Giordano, a 50-year-old Maryland businessman with a disturbing past, remains in custody.
The mystery has only deepened as authorities in Aruba begin releasing details from the investigation, such as images that are "beyond pornographic."
No other information about the photos has been revealed, and it's still not known exactly when the pictures - on Gary Giordano's camera - were taken.
It is also difficult to determine whether the acts are consensual, says Julia Renfro, editor-in-chief of Aruba Today, the island's English language daily."You only see organs," Renfro tells People Magazine, disturbingly. "You don't know if she is awake. There are other pictures where she is posing naked."
It's the latest surprise in a case that had already gained notoriety because of its parallels to the unsolved disappearance of Natalee Holloway, 18.
The suspect in that case, which captivated the nation in 2005, is Joran van der Sloot, who is being tried this fall in Peru for another murder.
As far as Robyn Gardner is concerned, leads have been provocative.
Along with the photos, authorities are looking into a $1.5 million accidental death insurance policy Giordano reportedly took out on Gardner before the trip.

Lemberg (Sep. 20)
(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
The ultra-orthodox wing of Polish Jewry under the leadership of rabbis will assert itself on the political arena at the forthcoming national elections to the Polish Sejm, it was learned today following a closed conference of East Galician rabbis.
The conference, whose participants are not members of the Orthodox World organization. Agudath Israel, was called chiefly to deliberate on ways and means to oppose the planned democratization of the kehillahs in Eastern Galicia as is contemplated in accordance with a recent government decree extending to Galicia the provisions of the Pilsudski decree which was previously valid only for Congress Poland.
The Agudah, which allied itself with other Jewish political groups during the last elections, was severely criticised by the leaders of the ultra-orthodox wing.
The conference it was stated, decided to create an extreme right orthodox party which will not join the minorities bloc in parliament. The leaders plan to unite with the assimilationist group in the elections.
Leaders of the conference asserted that they have the support of the Polish authorities as the government is dissatisfied with the policy of the Agudath Israel, which stands with the all-Jewish bloc.

Don't bash Brecht
Legacy of a turbulent age ... Brecht's The Good Soul of Szechaun, showing at the Young Vic. Photograpg: Tristram Kenton
It's strange how forgiving we are of artists who were involved with Hitler's Third Reich. In 1933, Goebbels appointed the composer Richard Strauss - whose dreamily decadent operas Salome, Elektra and Der Rosenkavalier remain central to any contemporary opera house's repertoire - president of the Reichsmusikkammer, the state music bureau. In 1936, Strauss composed the Olympic Hymn for the infamous summer games and befriended some high-ranking Nazis.
He was probably politically naive. He may have been acting to protect his Jewish daughter-in-law; and he refused to have the name of his friend, the Jewish librettist Stefan Zweig, removed from the playbill of his opera Die Schweigsame Frau. This, it seems, is now enough to redeem Strauss the man. And Strauss the musician? To my ear, there is something cruel, louche, almost kitsch in his music that has echoes of the Nazi mind. But that's a dark undertow, not a declared political statement. And there is no denying the beauty and significance of his music. His position in the classical canon is assured. All, it seems, is forgiven.
But forgiveness from some, on both the right and left of the British cultural establishment, is rather harder to come by for artists who supported communism during the great upheavals of the first half of the 20th century. The current revival of Brecht's Good Soul of Szechuan at London's Young Vic has brought out the usual sorry bunch of carping critics - among them the Observer's Nick Cohen and the Telegraph's Charles Spencer - eager to prove that Brecht was a heartless Stalinist, a playwright whose work should be dropped from our stages.
Brecht lived through the most turbulent period in human history. As he grew up, he saw his country torn apart by the first world war. Then he witnessed the economic desperation and faltering democracy of the Weimar period, finally fleeing his country after the rise of the Nazi party. After years of wandering in exile, he finally settled in America, where he came under the scrutiny of the McCarthy witch-hunts for Hollywood communists. Only in his final decade did he find an uneasy home in the new East German state, wrestling with officials to found the ground-breaking Berliner Ensemble.
No wonder Brecht's greatest plays, Mother Courage and Galileo, portray itinerant central figures struggling to survive in a world of shifting political allegiances, often prepared to lie and trick to survive. Brecht put a great deal of himself into these devious characters; he may well not have been a trustworthy or noble man. But there are many Brechts, not just the monolithic communist his detractors portray. The early Brecht was a wild, anarchic poet. Productions of his 1928 Threepenny Opera often struggle to find in it a consistent political line. And yet it's a brilliantly confused collage of rage and cynicism with lashings of cruel, sexual poetry.
For a short time in the 1930s, as German society became more divided, Brecht's plays took a decidedly Leninist turn. His play The Mother shows a working-class woman struggling to reconcile individual needs with the demands of a political cause. It's a beautiful, moving piece, painfully ignorant of the horrors of Stalinism that were to follow. How strange that this play is considered beyond the pale in Britain and no longer performed - yet the Economist can declare, in 2003, that Triumph of the Will, Leni Riefenstahl's film of the 1934 Nuremberg rally, marks her out as "the greatest female film-maker of the 20th century".
Brecht was very clear about one thing: his resistance to fascism. Before the Nazis came to power, Hitler's brownshirts were disrupting performances of Brecht and Weill's 1930 opera Mahagonny, claiming that it brought the contamination of black and Jewish musical influences into the German opera house. Brecht dedicated the next 15 years of his writing - plays, film scripts, poetry - to the anti-fascist cause.
Bizarrely, Nick Cohen claims Mother Courage is an anti-war play, hoping to insinuate that Brecht's inclination to pacifism made him an apologist for fascism. But it's not an anti-war play at all. Brecht stated several times that Mother Courage, written on the eve of the second world war, was a warning that it would be impossible to remain neutral in the ensuing fight. To carry on with business as usual was not an option: it's a policy Mother Courage pursues, and in doing so loses her family. And, at a time when few among the Allies identified anti-semitism as one of the greatest evils of the Nazi regime, Brecht depicted the day-to-day agony of German Jews in sections of his 1938 Fear and Misery in the Third Reich.
Should Brecht have made East Germany his home after the war? The communist government offered him the resources to create the Berliner Ensemble, a benchmark for postwar European theatre. Our own RSC, National Theatre, Royal Court and Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop were all profoundly influenced by the ensemble's visit to London in 1956. But Brecht found more in East Germany than a home to make theatre: he believed that the state's system, hugely imperfect as he knew it to be, was the best bulwark against fascism returning to post-war Europe. After the brutal age he had lived through, it's surely a decision we can understand, even if we can't all condone it. If we can reconcile ourselves to Richard Strauss and - alarmingly - Leni Riefenstahl, surely it's time the Brecht-bashing came to an end.

from the personal collection of Eugene Ray Perkins F/1c, USNR USS MARCUS ISLAND (CVE 77)
The following are extracts from an Associated Press article which appeared in the Honolulu papers:
PACIFIC FLEET HEADQUARTERS, PEARL HARBOR, Nov. 20.
(AP) - The battle of San Bernardino Strait October 24, in which a Japanese force of four battleships, eight heavy cruisers and at least 10 destroyers trapped 16 American escort carriers protected only by their own planes and an unreported number of destroyers was one of the strangest in Naval history.
The American victors fled before the vanquished Japanese, who had heavy odds in their favor; far superior range, very heavy armor, far greater speed and the assistance of land based airplanes.
The Japanese were fast overtaking the little CVE's (escort carriers) - but just when the American vessels seemed doomed the enemy turned and fled under attack by U.S. carrier planes.
The Gambier Bay took a shell that knocked out one engine. The resultant sudden slowing, plus the enemy's speed, allowed the Gambier Bay to be overtaken by the entire Japanese force.
The enemy deliberately riddled her at point blank range and sent the ship to the bottom, but a great number of her crew were saved.
The story was related today by a naval observer who witnessed much of the action from the escort carrier Natoma Bay, but whose name was withheld by censorship.
Another CVE, the St. Lo, was hit heavily, set afire and sunk a few miles away. The crew went overside when "abandon ship" was ordered and an escorting destroyer dared Japanese fire to pick up survivors. At this time, about 9 am, the naval officer reported, the CVE's were fleeing the scene as fast as possible in a line extending many miles over the Philippine Sea, even while their own planes were bombing and torpedoing the enemy attackers. The little carriers, capable of only about 20 knots, were being overhauled rapidly by the Japanese ships, all believed capable of more than 30 knots.
The CVE's were "being heavily shelled by Jap cruisers and battleships - - the situation looks almost hopeless," the naval officer wrote in his diary.
He saw shells from the foremost Japanese ship falling over the screening American destroyers and astern of his fleeing Natoma Bay. The enemy used red, green, yellow and purple dyes in shells from the various ships better to determine their accuracy. Green shells fell around the Natoma Bay and "spouted plumes of water in a beautiful iridescent green in the clear sunlight against the dark blue sea."
The 16 escort carriers "had no protection other than our aircraft, our maneuverability and gallant destroyer screen."
Their captains were:
Gambier Bay, Capt. W. V. R. Vieweg.
St. Lo (formerly the Midway), Capt. F. J. McKenna.
Kalinin Bay, Capt. T. B. Wilkinson.
Kitkun Bay, Capt. J. P. Whitney.
Fanshaw Bay, Capt. D. P. Johnson.
White Plains, Capt. D. J. Sullivan.
Natoma Bay, Capt. A. K. Morehouse.
Manila Bay, Capt. Fitzhugh Lee.
Ommaney Bay, Capt. H. L. Young.
Kadashan Bay, Capt. R. N. Hunter.
Marcus Island, Capt. C. F. Greber.
Savo Island, Capt. C. E. Ekstrom.
Sangamon, Capt. M. E. Browder.
Suwanee, Capt. W. D. Johnson.
Santee, Capt. R. E. Blick.
Petrof Bay, Capt. J. L. Kane.
Rear Admiral T. L. Sprague was in overall command, with Rear Admiral C. A. F. SPRAGUE and Fexlix B. STUMP cooperating. Some of the other CVE's were damaged, but they were not identified.
The force expected no outside aid (although it did get some in mid afternoon). Vice Admiral Jesse B. Oldendorf's battleship force still was in Leyte Gulf after sinking an entire Japanese force of two battleships, two cruisers and four destroyers before dawn.
Admiral William F. Halsey's 3rd Fleet was engaging the imperial carrier task force northeast of Luzon Island.
However, shortly after the naval observers noted that the situation was ominous, grim, these things happened in quick sequence.
"The Japanese force split and turned away...
"Our torpedo planes stopped the Japanese. At least one Japanese cruiser has been torpedoed and sunk....Other cruisers and battleships had been hit..."
All morning, the CVE pilots bombed and torpedoed the Japanese, returned to their carriers, armed, gassed, gulped sandwiches and were launched again and again for further attacks on the Japanese. Many of the pilots were engaging in their first combat.
The naval observer's final entry in is diary:
"The Japanese force has been whipped by our planes. Japanese ships lie crippled in their pools of oil....Surviving ships are running for their lives, leaving their wounded behind. The battle has turned and we no longer are pursued but are now the pursuers... A Jap battleship, a cruiser and a destroyer are ignored by our pursuing planes as they lie crippled in the sea. We are harrying them in their retreat."
At 4:30 in the afternoon, the Japanese sent more than 40 land based planes against the CVE's, but they were turned back after 16 had been destroyed. Meanwhile, carriers Admiral Halsey had detached from his 3rd Fleet had come south and joined in sinking or damaging every one of the fleeing Japanese ships.
Today, Admiral T. L. Sprague sent this message to all ships which had participated in the CVE action:
"These ships not only met and defeated enemy attacks in the air but they have turned back a large enemy fleet composed of his most modern ships.... Never have fighting men performed their duty with greater determination and distinction....Against such teamwork the enemy could not have prevailed....
"To the mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, wives and sons and daughters of those who were lost, I say: Do not be sad. Be comforted and inspired in the thought that victory for which these men so freely and courageously gave their lives has contributed immeasurably to final defeat of the enemy."

ZURICH, SWITZERLAND – Travellers will find the relatively ads-free train stations in six main Swiss cities visually busier Monday 20 June when large-screen ad boards go up.
The 1.01 x 1.80 metre screens will show silent animated high-definition advertisements, similar to screens already operating in airports.
Geneva, Lausanne, Bern, Basel, Lucerne and Zurich will have a total of 43 boards. The CFF says that 840,000 people pass through the six RailAway stations every day.
Ad sales will be handled by e-advertising, which belongs to SGA (APG in German), Switzerland's largest "out of home" media advertising company.
The company has a new product that was developed with Coca-Cola and Volkswagen, an interactive billboard, on display at Zurich's main station until the end of June: the display reacts to the movements of passersby.

From the song "Swagga" by TI ft. Jay-Z, Kanye West, & Lil Wayne
In the past, without thinking, I would say "heck no… unless you're a rockstar or you're gay" because those two types are the only ones who, in the past, have been able to successfully pull it off. But I've really thought about this question over the past few months or so and I say that wearing skinny jeans totally depends on the type of person wearing them. (plus many types of guys have been wearing them for years)
1. Thin or skinny body frame
Thin guys just look better in skinny jeans, bigger guys just look downright uncomfortable in tight pants- it's NOT a good look) I have a friend who always talks about how he loves "thick dark-brown girls in skinny jeans"; well it isn't the same for females…. We don't rave on and on about loving muscular dudes in skinny jeans, sorry.
2. Rock-star
Almost every rock star wears skinny jeans; it's just apart of the rock star persona. Most of them end up wearing really tight black leather pants at some point in their careers, and it's cool because it's some type of rock-star tradition of sorts.
3. Artistic Personality
People with artistic personalities, be it in visual arts, fashion, music, whatever- they usually have the ability to pull off new trends with ease, and they're usually the ones to start the trends anyway.
4. Caribbean born or descent
It's a part of the culture- to some extent. I'm half Jamaican and I've seen tons of pictures of my dad and his friends rockin' not so loose jeans throughout the 80s. Matter of fact he has one picture in a pair of red skinny jeans with a varsity type jacket, leaning against his Beamer- its kinda hot…. I'll upload it if I can find it.
5.) Non-heterosexual
I hope this doesn't offend anyone, but let's be honest gay men can pull of shyt that straight men can't. It's just apart of life and the sooner some of you all realize it, the better
A combination of atleast 2 of the 5 criteria is the best, but having atleast one is essential. The 1st point about being skinny is also a must, so really you should atleast match #1 plus any of the other numbers.
Notable skinny jeans wearing music artist: Travis Barker, Lil' Wayne, Chris Brown, Pharrell, and almost every rockstar.

Neal from the PowerPage UK bureau files this report:
I passed the London store last night in regent street. The store will be housed in Regents House a building that dates back to 1898. With 9 days to go to the grand opening I managed to peek inside and boy is it big. The glass stair case is centre placed and it reminded me of the Soho store in New York but bigger!

PRESIDENT Robert Mugabe has said his empowerment minister was wrong to sign-off the Zimplats indigenisation compliance deal which has left the tax-payer facing a possible US$350 million hit.
Mugabe piled pressure on Saviour Kasukuwere over the Zimplats deal during an interview with state media to mark his 89th birthday.
The Zanu PF leader said Kasukuwere was wrong to endorse an agreement that requires the government to pay for shares acquired under the country's indigenisation programme.
South Africa-based Impala Platinum (Implats), early this year, reached a deal to reduce its interest in Zimplats to 49 percent from about 87 percent in line with the country's indigenisation legislation.
Foreign companies cannot own more than 51 percent of their Zimbabwe operations under a programme driven by Mugabe's Zanu PF party but opposed by his coalition partners.
Under the terms of the US$971 million Zimplats deal, 20 percent of the shares were handed to community and employee share schemes while the state-run National Indigenisation and Economic Empowerment Fund (NIEEF) would take-over a 31 percent interest in the platinum miner.
"If they don't come up with the cash the stake will not be transferred," Implats' then chief executive, David Brown, said at the time.
But Mugabe said the mineral resource belonged to Zimbabwe and should make up the country's 51 percent contribution to the business. He said Kasukuwere made a mistake when he agreed the deal.
"Problem ndiyoyo, ivo vakatipa 51 percent vachiti chikwereti chatirikukupai asi tirikukubhadharirai mangwana mozotibhadhara that is where the difference is," the Zanu PF leader said
Kasukuwere has led the charge to force foreign companies to comply with the country's indigenisation laws and, buoyed by the Zimplats deal, recently indicated he would target the banking sector.
However, questions have been raised over some of the transactions agreed to date with critics also querying the role of a Harare-based advisory firm which is demanding US$17 million for consultancy work on the Zimplats deal alone.
Implats has refused to pay the fee arguing the company was engaged by and provided its services to the NIEEB and the Zimbabwe government.
Meanwhile, the government has given Implats 30 days to appeal the seizure of about 28,000 hectares of land believed to hold significant mineral resources for allocation to new investors.
"The President intends to acquire compulsorily part of the land held by Zimplats Holdings … for the utilisation of such mining location for the benefit of the public," a government notice said Saturday.
However Implats is already demanding US$153 million from the government for ground released in 2006 and has said conclusion of the indigenisation transaction also depends on an agreement being reached over the sum.

"A Wii U Wonder"
If one were to condense Platinum Games' latest action game, The Wonderful 101, into a food recipe, it'd read something like this: "Take 7 Cups of Superhero Action, Drama, and Comedy each, and mix with 5 Cups of Premise involving 100 Masked Heroes teaming up to confront an Alien Invasion. Flavor them with a Robust Cast of Heroes and Villains inspired by Classic Superhero Tropes (Justice-Minded Leader, Hotshot Loner, Child with Chip on their Shoulder, Villain with Interest in Main Hero, etc.). Stir vigorously, thus adding constant Narrative Tension, Edge of Your Seat Moments and Comedic Dialogue/ Gags. Now pour 10 quarts of Intense Action-Packed Combat, 8 ¾ quarts of 'Fusing Heroes into Giant Weapons' brand Gameplay Hook, and 5 ½ quarts of Gameplay Variety. Place in a Wii U-style oven and let it cook for around 17 hours (the exact time is subject to the cook's playstyle preferences). Take out, let it cool off, and enjoy. NOTE: Small amounts of Technical Issues may appear in finished product."
Now I know the question that's hanging on the edge of your tongue right now: does it taste good? Technically, it does, but simply saying "yes" hardly explains it. The Wonderful 101 is a bombastic dish, chaotic yet strangely coherent from first bite to final swallow. Even with the occasional hiccup on the technical side, it is a meal well recommended for Wii U-style oven owners looking for something with a nice, action-oriented snap.
(Okay, I'm stopping with the food analogies now)
The first thing you'll notice about the game is that it doesn't take things slowly. The plot doesn't give you time to let the conflict between Earth and the extraterrestrial forces of GEATHJERK unfold before you are thrown right into the midst of it, leading a small portion of the 100 heroes into battle against the invaders. From there, as more heroes join your ranks and the threat of alien annihilation becomes more prominent, the sense of urgency only intensifies as it carries you from one action-packed set-piece to the next and again, and from one wave of fierce enemies to another.
Even with this rapid escalation, The Wonderful 101 still manages to make enough time outside of the action (or, in some cases, over the action) to develop an exciting story with real stakes (in spite of its frequent comical moments), memorable characters, and all the other things that make superhero stories fun, like in-fighting, betrayal, heated rivalries, impossible odds, shocking plot twists, and, of course, plenty of one-liners. It feels like watching a super-long episode of Power Rangers (but geared for an older audience and considerably more awesome), and makes playing the game more than worth it just to see how everything unfolds.
Not that the gameplay in and of itself isn't fun. In fact, controlling a horde of heroes in battle is surprisingly easy. By using either the GamePad touchscreen or R Stick, you can trace a line of heroes to form giant weapons called Unite Morphs. These provide a strong and diverse arsenal (ranging from a sword and a whip to a gun and pair of claws) with which to bring the fight to the invaders, and as you gather more heroes, the arsenal becomes bigger and the Morphs themselves more powerful. Better yet, the accessibility of the control scheme makes it easy to keep a clear understanding of what to do even in the heat of battle. And believe me, with enemies often coming either in large numbers or with serious attack power, it helps to not have to fumble around figuring out how to pummel them with a giant fist.
The majority of the gameplay involves fighting enemies and earning medals (by clearing out enemies as quickly and stylishly as possible) as you make your way through the game's story and Mission Mode. And while it is accessible, it is also deeper than it initially appears. Morphs aren't just used for killing aliens, but frequently come into play for solving puzzles and navigating obstacles. The GamePad's screen also gets plenty of usage, with several fun segments revolving around the interaction between the smaller screen and the TV screen.
If that wasn't enough, The Wonderful 101 frequently offers plenty of surprises. In its gonzo nature, the game may have you fighting enemies one minute, only to have you heading for their base in a Star Fox-esque rail-shooter segment the next. Giant robot boxing matches, bullet-hell shooter-sections, spectacle-ridden boss fights, and a number of hidden secrets throughout the game's levels ensure that things never feel dull.
So to sum up, on one hand the gameplay benefits from a strong balance of depth and accessibility, stylish combat, and a good sense of pacing and variety. On the other hand are those technical issues I touched upon earlier, most of which have to do with the tracing mechanic for forming Unite Morphs. While it, for the most part, work wells, too often I would trace the shape I thought would form the hammer, only to find that it would form a whip instead. Same with other morphs, which would be mistaken for others if I didn't trace it carefully. Ultimately, this doesn't bother me personally, as one can easily undo the trace and try again without losing a lot of time, but I can see it being a damper on other players' ability to effectively fight, especially on harder settings.
Mention must also be made of some other, milder issues. The fixed camera angle can occasionally work against you, making it hard to tell which hero is under your control, while load times can be a bit frustrating in their length. Also, the game can be pretty glitchy, with some heroes getting stuck in spots or floating high above the rest of the team, etc. My personal favorite was a floating sword that continued to fight even though the enemy carrying it had long died. In spite of these glitches, none of them ever affected the gameplay, crashed the game, or made me unable to progress.
And it's just as well that it never happened, because I would have missed out on some great, action-packed moments that you don't find in great number on the Wii U. With chaotic-yet-cohesive combat, strong gameplay hook, plenty of variety and an exciting story that ties it all together, The Wonderful 101 is an excellent addition to Platinum's catalog and… dare I say it… a wonderful exclusive for the Wii U. If you're a Wii U owner and longing for something action-packed, look no further.

A major Birmingham phone exchange was hit by a power failure yesterday lunch time cutting off hundreds of thousands of customers across the UK, an estimate has put the figure down as five per cent of BT customers were hit by this issue.
In a statement the company said;
"We can confirm that, as a result of a power failure at one of our major exchanges, some customers may have experienced loss of broadband service for a brief period this afternoon.
"All services have now been restored, with the majority of BT's consumer broadband customers' service being restored within just one hour.
"Some business customers' broadband service may have been affected for a slightly longer period. Should any customers continue to experience difficulty in accessing their broadband service, they are advised to turn their hub or modem off and on again."
BT have apologised for any inconvenience caused by the power problem.

A Richmond County sheriff's investigator accused of shooting a man Saturday night at an Augusta apartment complex after a domestic dispute has been placed on leave with pay pending an investigation, Richmond County Sheriff Ronnie Strength said Monday night.
"He has not been suspended," the sheriff said.
Narcotics Investigator Brian Vallee is accused of shooting Michael Hines, 47, at the Georgian Place Apartments on Wrightsboro Road.
Mr. Hines remained at Medical College of Georgia Hospital on Monday night. An MCG spokeswoman said she could not give any information on Mr. Hines' condition.
On Saturday, police were called to the apartments at about 10:45 p.m.
They found Mr. Hines outside his apartment holding a knife to his throat. When he threatened to go upstairs and get a gun, Investigator Vallee blocked the entrance, police said.
Mr. Hines then threatened Investigator Vallee with the knife, said Richmond County sheriff's Investigator Bonnie Kalbskopf.
When Mr. Hines came within 3 feet of the investigator after being warned to stop, Investigator Vallee fired one shot to "stop the threat," Investigator Kalbskopf said.
Mr. Hines was struck once in the chest. Mr. Hines is charged with aggravated assault and possession of a knife during the commission of a crime, Investigator Kalbskopf said.
Agents from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation typically handle shootings involving law enforcement and were at the scene Saturday, Investigator Kalbskopf said.

2 NEWS Investigates is getting answers about why a local security guard, accused in a deadly shooting had a gun– when the state said he should not have been armed.
According to police, Karp said a man acting erratically charged at him Sunday night at the Love's Truck Stop on Edwin C. Moses Boulevard, so he fired his gun and killed him.
But Karp's application to be a security guard hasn't been completely processed by the state — meaning he isn't legally allowed to carry a gun.
Karp isn't talking, but his lawyer is.
Natalie: "Why did Mr. Karp have a gun on the job when the state says he shouldn't?
Rion: "Well the state didn't say he shouldn't. Joshua applied for certification and he had been told by his employer that he had received certification."
Karp's attorney Jon Paul Rion blames Arrow Security.
He said Karp didn't know he wasn't supposed to be carrying a gun on the job the night he shot a truck driver at love's travel stop.
Rion said Karp was acting in self defense.
"We have a person for no apparent reason completely unprovoked charged in a very violent manner at my client Joshua Karp. Joshua responded in a way that most of us would by attempting to defend himself," said Rion.
2 NEWS Investigates obtained copies of documents Karp filled out to register with the state in order to work for a security company.
He had been a guard for different companies in the past, but is required to re-register when he switches employers.
As we first reported Karp applied to be an armed guard with arrow security six weeks ago. The state hasn't fully processed that request. A spokesman for the Ohio Department of Public Safety told me, until that paperwork is through, Karp can work as security guard, just not an armed one.
Something Rion said Karp didn't know and was never told by his bosses at arrow security.
"They said you've been approved, everything is fine, work for us," said Rion.
A spokesperson for the Department of Pubic Safety said it's both parties responsibility to know if they are fully registered and licensed.
They said in this situation Arrow Security had to get a waiver signed by Love's acknowledging that Karp's paper work was not fully in and he could not carry a gun.
After asking Love's about it, we got a statement back that said in part "new details continue to come out and we are working closely with investigators to uncover all the facts."
We have not confirmed if that waiver was signed.
2 NEWS Investigates called Arrow Security again for comment, but have not heard back.
We also got an answer about why Karp's application said he never had a misdemeanor when we found he was charged with receiving stolen property in 2006 and pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of unauthorized use of property.
Natalie: "On his application he said he has not been convicted of a misdemeanor in the past 20 years when we found that wasn't the case"
Jon: "There are certain crimes that would prohibit someone from becoming a security guard or a police officer; felonies, crimes of violence, none of those crimes were involved in this case."
But why check the wrong box?
Rion said Karp was not aware his charge was a misdemeanor and it was an honest mistake.
Rion said Karp has taken more than the required number of classes to be an armed security guard and believes in protecting the public.
"Josh and his family are very concerned for the tragedy that happened. Hearts go out to all involved," said Rion.
A spokesman for the Department of Public Safety told 2 NEWS Investigates they will conduct their own investigation– and Karp's application to be a legally armed security guard will not be fully processed until that investigation is complete.

One of Utah's largest newspapers, located in the heart of Mormon country, has endorsed President Obama over Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
A super PAC that has spent more than $35 million to promote President Obama's re-election campaign is renewing its efforts to hit Republican challenger Mitt Romney over his time at Bain Capital, according to a memo released Saturday.

Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has seized momentum in the key swing state of Florida but still trails President Obama in Ohio, according to a poll released Friday.
More than half of Americans think President Obama rebounded from a lackluster debate performance earlier this month to beat Republican challenger Mitt Romney in Tuesday's presidential debate, according to a survey released Friday.
The Obama campaign's staff grew to an army of just under 1,000, an increase of 10 percent over the last month, records showed Friday.
At least $180 million of the money President Obama — and likely much more — has raised has been collected by 758 "bundlers" who collect money from wealthy friends and associates, and who the campaign closely monitors and honors for their efforts.
The super PAC formed to back the ill-fated bid of Newt Gingrich has paid a longtime friend of the former House speaker hundreds of thousands of dollars, including long after the political action committee no longer had a purpose.
The super PAC backing GOP nominee Mitt Romney raised $15 million last month while spending almost nothing, leaving $17 million in the bank as of October 1. It has spent $11 million since that time, filings showed Friday.
GOP nominee Mitt Romney raised twice as much from wealthy donors giving $10,000 or more to a high-donor fund last month, records showed Friday, even though President Obama and the Democrats out-raised Mr. Romney and the Republicans overall for the month.

The Ohio Historical Society and Adams County authorities investigate a strange case of vandalism. Officials say a group that calls itself Unite The Collective buried objects embedded with aluminum foil and quartz crystal at the Serpent Mound. Officials have uncovered three so far, but believe there could be hundreds buried at the 63 acre ancient Native American site. Video that was posted on YouTube will be a key piece of evidence. The video has since been removed from the website. Unite the Collective members describe themselves as "light warriors" who say they planted the objects to "help lift the vibration of the earth so we can all rise together."
Orgonites are crafted from metal filings, such as aluminum, and quartz crystals, cast in a resin base, often in a muffin tin, the newspaper reported. Websites that discuss making and using such devices claim they draw in negative energy and exude positive energy. Read more: www.seattlepi.com...

Ruthless developers. That is just wrong.
Is this case still ongoing? I read it thru and read the last few pages several times and did not see that there was a ruling? Legal docs can be so hard to interpret....

It seems most of spring and summer, we never notice spiders around here. They're pretty small and discrete. But by Fall, they've gotten so big that you can't help but notice them. Don't worry. This is the last time I'll mention spiders. It's getting too cool outside now and they're all going into hiding. But my ghostwriter has been tracking a few select beauties and wanted to show some of the final pictures of the season.
We were amazed last week when one of them caught a huge wasp and wrapped it up for safe keeping! What makes this so incredible is that there are some types of wasps that actually catch spiders and feed them to their young.

West Bromwich Albion captain Scott Carson says they showed great character to draw with Tottenham.
Carson, 25, says coming from behind against Spurs proves this team has more backbone.
He said: "In the past we maybe would have conceded the first goal and then thought 'Oh here we go'.
"We could have gone 2-0 down before half-time and it would have been game over. But the manager has got us playing with a never-say-die attitude.
"We played a top side and gone from 1-0 down to deserving to win the game.
"I saw Jerome Thomas win a 50-50 sliding tackle and those are the sort of things we didn't do two years ago.
"Hopefully the penny is starting to drop and we know what we need to do to stay in the league."

A Cambridge home remodeled for kids
Photograph by Eric Roth
Play time: A big believer in using built-ins sparingly in order to keep spaces flexible, Architect Maggie Booz of Cambridge-based Smart Architecture counseled the couple to forgo them in the dining room. Sure, toys are scattered around the open space now, but it's worth it. Soon enough, the kids will outgrow their toys, she promised, and the proper amount of space needed for a smooth-flowing dining room will have been preserved.

| Gramick says no to Vatican silencing, expects
By PAMELA SCHAEFFER
Since being served in late May with a formal order of silence by Sr. Rosemary Howarth, the general superior of her religious order in Rome, Sr. Jeannine Gramick has purposefully moved toward expulsion from the School Sisters of Notre Dame.
I expect to be dismissed, Gramick said in a recent telephone interview. Gramick has said she is unable to cooperate with the order, issued by Howarth under pressure from the Vatican, to refrain from speaking about her experiences as a controversial minister to homosexuals.
It is very serious to be put under formal obedience, because if you dont do what is required you are dismissed, Gramick said.
Terms of the latest Vatican directive, aimed at Gramick and Salvatorian Fr. Robert Nugent, her longtime coworker in ministry to homosexuals, were presented as a clarification of a ban on their pastoral work issued last July, though Gramick described it as an expansion. They were summoned to Rome to receive the directive, which prohibits them from:
Nugent has said he will comply with the Vatican order, thus assuring that he will remain a Salvatorian priest.
Gramick and Nugent founded New Ways Ministry, a ministry to homosexuals, in 1977. Cardinal James E. Hickey of Washington has expressed opposition to their work for nearly 20 years -- the approximate length of the Vatican investigation that led to last years ban and the recent silencing.
Gramick entered religious life at age 18. She said she deeply loves her community and has never questioned her vocation to religious life. To leave, she said, would be to sever bonds and relationships that have developed over 40 years.
Nevertheless, Gramick said, the order to be silent violates her conscience. I feel that no one has the right to ask another person not to tell their own story to a group of people who are willing to listen.
In a May 25 statement she said, I choose not to collaborate in my own oppression by restricting a basic human right.
Gramick said her provincial, Sr. Jane Burke of Baltimore, would be overseeing her activities.
Church laws governing religious life require that members accused of a grave offense -- including stubborn disobedience to the legitimate prescripts of superiors in a grave matter -- be given two solemn warnings at intervals of at least 15 days. If the warnings fail, the congregations leaders may vote by secret ballot for dismissal. Such actions must be approved by the Holy See. Members dismissed have a right of appeal to the Vatican office for religious, the same office that asked Nugents and Gramicks communities to take action against them.
Dismissals or forced resignations have occurred regularly, if infrequently, in recent years. Formal orders of obedience have been rare since the Second Vatican Council. Rather, decisions arrived at by mutual agreement between a congregations leaders and members have become the norm.
Loretto Sr. Maureen Fiedler of Catholics Speak Out has urged Gramicks superiors to write leaders of her order and urge them to stop cooperating with the Vatican. And Gramick herself criticized procedures that put the leaders of her order in the middle.
The recent Vatican directive has put our community leaders in opposition to a member of the community, she said, and asks them to do violence to an individual that they dont want to do. It has put us in an awful situation.
Those familiar with such procedures, however, say using established chains of command is standard modus operandi for Vatican officials.
Howarth, speaking by telephone from Rome, said she had acted in keeping with her conscience and the complexity of the case. I did call on Jeannine to live out her vow of obedience to the congregation, which is a congregation within the church, she said. Jeannine freely chose to live within the parameters of our congregation and the church.
She added: I know the church isnt perfect, and neither are we. But its our responsibility to deal with Jeannine, so I chose to assume my authority and to accept my responsibility in caring for the person of Jeannine and in caring for the international congregation. I cannot deal with Jeannine in isolation.
Howarth added, I want to recognize the positive aspects of Jeannines dedicated service. The congregation, she said, continues to support pastoral ministry to lesbian and gay persons. We exclude no one from our concerns and we do want to respond to the urgent needs of our time.
Burke, Gramicks provincial, said the disciplining of Gramick and Nugent could represent a watershed moment for the church. It is forcing religious congregations to deal with many lateral issues, she said, such as the call of men and women religious to be a prophetic voice within the church, and the responsibilities of leaders within that context.
Weve got to avoid the temptation to speak and act as if this were a single issue, she said.

Who is Hungry?
The New Face of Hunger
While low-income families are at risk of hunger even during strong economic times, the current economy has put many thousands who were once secure in their jobs and homes suddenly at risk. The Status Report on Hunger in Massachusetts 2012 revealed that over 750,000 people in Massachusetts are struggling to put food on the table.
Vulnerable Populations
Some populations are at an even greater risk of hunger than others. The most vulnerable among us — children, elders, families, and immigrants — have been devastated by the impact of widespread unemployment, foreclosures, and skyrocketing health care costs.
Children: When children are hungry, they are more likely to get sick, miss school and struggle to learn. They can't catch up as easily after common childhood illnesses, and they can't grow to their full potential. Project Bread works to fully enroll low-income children in federal nutrition programs, such as School Breakfast and Lunch Programs and the Summer Food Service Program. Enrollment in these programs also brings substantial federal revenue to local economies. We are working to improve child nutrition at school and in summer programs through partnerships with the private sector, public health officials, nonprofits, pediatricians, educators, parents, and political and community leaders.
Related Solutions: Better Meals, Chefs in Schools, Summer Meals, meals4kids.org
Elders: When seniors are hungry, they are more likely to be hospitalized and to have chronic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. They are often reluctant to ask for help, and instead are forced to choose between purchasing food and medicine.
Related Solutions: Home Health Care, Hospital Handbook
Families: Families that have access to healthy food and the knowledge and skills to prepare nutritious meals are ready to learn and work. Project Bread initiatives help identify families in need, and give them the tools to put a consistently healthy meal on the table every day.
Related Solutions: Community Health Centers, SNAP Access
Immigrants: Latinos in low-income communities suffer high rates of food insecurity and hunger, and are underutilizing food resources such as SNAP/food stamps. In fact, only about half of those eligible participate in this important nutrition program.

The representatives stressed that residents need to complete their address conversion.
"People need to complete the changing over of their addresses to the new E-911 addresses so that they do not experience any problems with some of their services," committee member Michelle Poppell said.
She said areas where residents have encountered address problems are through mail and package deliveries and garbage pick-up.
"Some people have changed their addresses online to some of their vendors and other people who send them mail, but they need to send in an actual change-of-address, in the mail, to the businesses to make sure that the change takes place," Poppell said.
Another issue was the importance of residents to correctly mark their mail boxes with the new address, and with reflective letters and numbers that are at least three inches tall on each side of the boxes.
Markers for the mailboxes, which meet these standards, can be obtained from the Ludowici/Long County Fire Department's Ladies Auxiliary, call 654-4504 or 654-3512.
According to Karl Larsen of GeoComm, the Wiregrass Communication Center, which will be in Darien, is set to be completed by November.
According to Luther Smart, a member of the McIntosh County E-911 Committee, construction is "moving right along." Long and McIntosh counties are partnering to bring 911 service.
According to Smart, the foundation and utility lines are down and wall construction has started. He said electrical work still presented a few questions but should be dealt with before the April meeting.
Smart also said a new radio tower in McIntosh County is being constructed for the project.
The next meeting was scheduled at the Long County Courthouse on April 22 at 3 p.m.

Sochi Winter Paralympics: Australian Toby Kane misses slalom medal as Russia's new star dominates
Australian Paralympic alpine skiing coach Steve Graham has questioned the fairness of the disability grading given to Russia's new wunderkid Alexey Bugaev after watching the 16-year-old's dominant performance in the slalom push Toby Kane out of the medals.
Australia again failed to pick up a medal on the slopes of Rosa Khutor when Toby Kane was edged into fourth place, while Gourley did not finish his second run after missing a gate.
While the team remained upbeat about breaking the drought during the final three days of competition, with Kane in a good position in the super-combined which will be completed on Friday and Gourley ranked world No.1 in the giant slalom, Graham was unhappy with Bugaev's grading in relation to his skiers.
Gourley and Bugaev, who completed a full set of medals from Sochi with the slalom win - as well as boosting his reward from the Russian government to more than $200,000 for his success - are both classified as LW6/8-2 for standing skiers who have an impairment or loss of one hand or arm.
A factoring system is used to adjust the times of the skiers based on their level of disability. While Gourley and Bugaev both use two skis and one pole, Graham was unhappy that Bugaev, who is missing the tips of his thumb and three fingers was assessed the same as the Australian who was born without the lower part of his left arm.
"You look at him (Bugaev) and he's got the least disability of anyone," Graham said.
"He's got the tips of his fingers missing and Mitch has got half an arm but he's got the same factor. He's young, he's athletic, his a good skier and he's got minimal disability so that makes it pretty tough."
Kane was ranked fourth after the first run and maintained his position after the second, which was held several hours later and under lights for the first time at a Paralympics.
However, the fastest three skiers from the first ran all held their position, with Bugaev setting the winning combined time at one minute 38.97 seconds, ahead of Vincent Gauthier-Manuel (1:40.24) and Alexander Alyabyev (1:40.74). Kane finished in 1:43.48.
Kane said he did not believe a mistake, where he lost more than a second during the second run, had cost him a place on the podium even though he was ranked first when he finished.
"I know the feeling of coming fourth quite well and I suppose there's good fourths and there's bad fourths and when the (running) order was reversed after the first run it's my job to be in first when I get to the bottom and I did that," Kane said.
"I think that is all you can hope to do. You get into first and then you see what happens, so I'm happy that I did that."
Gourley said Kane should be proud of his placing.
"It was upsetting obviously for him to come fourth but he put it all out there. There's not a harder working athlete out there and he deserves everything but he probably needed one of them (final three skiers) to go down and I don't think Tobe's would want to win a medal that way anyway," Gourley said.
"He did everything he could. It's devastating for him but at the same time I think he's got to take confidence from it heading into tomorrow (super-combined) where he's a medal chance."
Gourley had to ski aggressively after being three seconds off Bugaev's first run and said, after poor results in the slalom this season, he "probably wasn't expecting a whole lot (but) was praying for a bit of a miracle".
However, he said it did not dent his confidence for his pet event.
"It was always going to be an interesting one for me with the giant slalom being last in the program and more than likely going into it without a whole lot of results," he said.
"It is what it is and I've got to try and perform on the last day."

The purpose of my online show and website is to promote women who compete in Bodybuilding, Physique, Fitness, Figure, Bikini, and MMA. Women work just as hard as the men, yet women get half the credit. Some of these women are my friends, and some are women in the industry who work hard to look like they do, and deserve some respect.
This site is the next step for us. We started as a small blog just doing email interviews and grew to phone interviews then a popular podcast with guests from the MMA and fitness worlds and now this.
Our goal is to bring you news, interviews, event coverage and more of mixed martial arts and fitness events. As our name suggests we do specialize in the female side of the sports, but we do not limit ourselves. We will cover MMA events that may have no female bouts, we will have male guests on our podcasts from time to time.
This all got started when from my own journey into bodybuilding, I realized just how little coverage women got in the sport as compared to me, same with MMA. I received a lot of help in my own journey and it was all through females. I wanted to pay back, so that is how the blog started, in an attempt to get women a little recognition in the sports. Never in my life did I see it growing as it has. Our goal is to keep growing and keep providing female athletes with the recognition they deserve but don't always get.
