Dear Savvy Senior,
What kinds of help are available to long-distance caregivers? My mother has gotten very forgetful in her old age and has fallen a few times over the past year, but is determined to stay living in her own house. How can I help her from 700 miles away?
Worried Daughter
Dear Worried,
In today's mobile society, caring for an elderly parent from afar has become increasingly common. In fact, the National Institute of Health estimates that there are around 7 million Americans who are long-distance caregivers today. Here are some tips and resources that can help you.
Weigh Your Options
When it comes to monitoring and caring of an aging parent that lives far away, you have a couple options. You can hire a professional to oversee your parent. Or you can coordinate the care yourself by assembling a network of neighbors, friends, medical specialist, drivers, housekeepers, and other helpers.
In either case, you may want to start by having your mom get a geriatric assessment. This is a professional evaluation to identify her needs and a suggested plan to manage her care. To find a professional who does this, contact your mom's doctor or visit the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers website at caremanager.org.
Once you get an assessment you'll need to decide how to proceed. If you decide to hire a geriatric care manager he or she can set up and manage all aspects of care, and monitor your mom's ongoing needs. And if her health deteriorates they can determine if assisted living or a nursing home is the best option and find a suitable facility. Care managers charge hourly rates for these services ranging between $75 and $150 per hour, and it's not covered by Medicare.
Do It Yourself
If, however, you don't want or can't afford to use a care manager, here are some things you can do yourself to help you manage her care.
�Assemble a care team: Put together a network of people (nearby friends or family, neighbors, clergy, mail carrier, etc.) who can check in on your mom regularly. And be sure they have your contact information so they can call you if need be.
�Find local resources: Most communities offer a range of free or subsidized services that provide seniors with basic needs such as home-delivered meals, transportation, senior companion services, and more. To find out what's available, contact the Area Agency on Aging in your mom's community. Call 800-677-1116 for contact information.
�Get a handle on finances: If your mom needs help with her financial chores, arrange for direct deposit of her Social Security and other pension checks (see godirect.org), and set up automatic payments for her utilities and other routine bills. Or, consider hiring a professional daily money manager (they charge between $25 and $100 per hour) who can do it for her. See aadmm.com or call 877-326-5991 to locate one.
�Use technology: For about $1 a day, rent your mom a personal emergency-response system. This is a small pendant-style "SOS" button that she wears that would allow her to call for help if she fell. These are available through companies like lifelinesys.com and lifealert.com. Or, check out home monitoring systems at grandcare.com or closebynetwork.com.
�Hire home help: Depending on her needs, you may need to hire a home-care provider that can help with homemaking chores, personal care, or medical issues. Costs vary from around $12 to $30 per hour. To find home-care assistance, call your mom's doctor's office, the discharge planner at her local hospital, or see medicare.gov/hhcompare.
�Seek financial assistance: Visit benefitscheckup.org to look for programs that may help your mom pay for drugs, health care, utilities, and other expenses.
Savvy tip: Call the National Institute on Aging at 800-222-2225 and order their free booklet "So Far Away: Twenty Questions for Long-Distance Caregivers."

A heavy police presence was in Chesterfield Township at the Fairchild Lakes Mobile Home community near 23 Mile Road Thursday evening. Family members say their 16-year-old brother got in a fight with a group of teens. The 16-year-old met up with his stepfather outside and, together, they made it home safely. Family members say the stepfather then walked outside on the front porch with weapons. "My guess, when he got involved with some of the other teens they end up following my stepdad home, and my stepdad went inside and grabbed two firearms," says brother Dahborin Steward.Steward says the firearms were handguns and that he did not hear gunshots. Neighbors also tell FOX 2's Ron Savage they heard no gunshots. However, brandishing firearms in a threatening manner is illegal and can bring charges. A 39-year-old man is in custody.

Report: Sparano out as Jets offensive coordinator
(Sports Network) - The New York Jets have reportedly fired offensive coordinator Tony Sparano after just one season.
According to ESPN, Sparano was informed of the decision late Monday night. It also came after the New York Daily News reported that quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh would not return next season.
Sparano joined the Jets last January after spending nearly four years as head coach of the Miami Dolphins. He took over for Brian Schottenheimer in hopes of improving a Jets offense that ranked 25th during the 2011 season.
Instead, the Jets took a step backward and ranked 30th, ahead of only San Diego and Arizona. New York was expected to return to a ground and pound mentality and finished 12th in rushing, but quarterback Mark Sanchez had his worst season and the offensive inconsistency played a major factor in the team's 6-10 finish.
Sparano became the Dolphins' head coach before the 2008 season and guided Miami to a stunning turnaround from 1-15 to 11-5 with an AFC East title in his first year. After a pair of 7-9 seasons, the Dolphins were 4-9 when Sparano was fired 13 games into the 2011 campaign.

Policy and consultations
Guiding principles for policy
Markets exist to serve savers and those raising capital, not the other way round. The costs of bringing the two together should be kept to the minimum. Intermediaries should not be able to extract excess rents.
Government and regulatory policy should similarly put the interests of savers and investors before those of market intermediaries.
Good regulation which enhances financial stability and the confidence of savers and investors is to be welcomed. The successive EU UCITS directives are examples of this. Poor regulation, which increases investor cost without adding commensurate benefit is not in the interests of savers and investors, and should be avoided.
Retail customers should be informed clearly and accurately how their money is being invested, what it is costing them and what the risks are. They should not be told they can receive higher returns without higher risk.
Conflicts of interest should be managed and rewards aligned with the interests of customers, and innovations should be made only in the interests of customers.
Regulatory timelines over the last 40 years there has been a marked shift, with regulation now coming mainly from the EU. Compare our Timeline of UK regulatory events with our Timeline of EEC/EU regulatory events.

WEAR - Search Results
New government website allows Americans to search for health coverage
Starting today, Americans are able to go online and search for health care coverage under "Obama Care."
There have already been some technical glitches with the https://www.healthcare.gov/.
But the Obama administration says those are being fixed quickly.
Adding the government shut-down will not effect this next phase of the Affordable Care Act.
The government website allows you to shop around, compare plans and buy insurance regardless of age gender income or pre-existing condition.
"More choices more competition and in many cases lower prices. Most uninsured Americans can find they can get covered for $100 or less."
Prices vary by states.
Doctors and networks vary by plans.
You must sign up by December 14th to get coverage by the start of the year.
If you don't sign up by the end of March, you won't be able to get insurance until 2015 and could be subject to a fine.

WARNING: Picture might be considered obscene because subject is not thin. And we all know that only skinny people can show their stomachs and celebrate themselves. Well I'm not going to stand for that. This is my body. Not yours. MINE. Meaning the choices I make about it, are none of your fucking business. Meaning my size, IS NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS.
If my big belly and fat arms and stretch marks and thick thighs offend you, then that's okay. I'm not going to hide my body and my being to benefit your delicate sensitivities.
This picture is for the strange man at my nanny's church who told me my belly was too big when I was five.
This picture is for my horseback riding trainer telling me I was too fat when I was nine.
This picture is for the girl from summer camp who told me I'd be really pretty if I just lost a few pounds
This picture is for all the fucking stupid advertising agents who are selling us cream to get rid of our stretch marks, a perfectly normal thing most people have (I got mine during puberty)
This picture is for the boy at the party who told me I looked like a beached whale.
This picture is for Emily from middle school, who bullied me incessantly, made mocking videos about me, sent me nasty emails, and called me "lard". She made me feel like I didn't deserve to exist. Just because I happened to be bigger than her. I was 12. And she continued to bully me via social media into high school.
MOST OF ALL, this picture is for me. For the girl who hated her body so much she took extreme measures to try to change it. Who cried for hours over the fact she would never be thin. Who was teased and tormented and hurt just for being who she was.
I'm so over that.
and FUCK YOU ALL who tried to degrade my being and sense of self with your hurtful comments and actions.
Too much for one photograph! <3

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WECT) – The principal of Hoggard High School calls cyberbullying the top discipline problem at Hoggard.
Now, he's working to fight back.
Principal Eric Pfirman says the impact of bullying is even greater now - with the use of social media. A quick tweet or Facebook post can be seen by hundreds of classmates. Pfirman says it's a growing problem at Hoggard High - especially among teenage girls.
The concern isn't just for those being bullied. He's also concerned about the bullies too.
The teen court in New Hanover County reports there are a growing number of cases of teens getting into trouble with the law over cybercrimes. Some have been charged with crimes like cyberstalking.
Pfirman is concerned an online mistake like this can follow a teen for life. For the victims, Pfirman says the emotional damage can take a big toll.
He talked about his concerns when it comes to the victims. "It is too big for them to handle," he said. "You see it more and more nationwide. You hear about these kids hurting themselves and losing all hope and giving into depression as a direct result of cyberbullying."
With the help from the District Attorney's office, Pfirman is hosting an informational session for parents. It will happen on Thursday at 6:00p.m. at the school. He wants parents to know the dangers of cyber bullying - and what they can do if their teens are being victimized.
He's also going to talk about concerns he has about other unsafe social media practices. Pfirman says more teens are posting inappropriate photos and party pictures on Instagram. He's concerned about their personal information some teens are posting online that could compromise their safety.
He hopes by hearing from the DA, parents and students can be better informed about these issues, in an effort to keep teens out of trouble.

A team of researchers at West Virginia University's Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines and Emissions will study the amount of methane emitted from dual fuel engines in the development of shale gas.
According to WVU, one of the biggest costs associated with shale gas development and utilization comes from the use of diesel fuel. Diesel engines power everything associated with well development, including the trucks that move equipment to a well site, the drilling rig itself and the compressors used for the hydraulic stimulation of wells.
Several companies are looking into possibly converting those engines to a mix of diesel and natural gas to reduce operating costs while using a domestic fuel source.
The WVU research team will look into the amount of methane emissions associated with dual fuel and dedicated natural gas technologies because of a $2 million trant from the Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory.
Andrew Nix, principal investigator and assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, will lead the CAFEE team, which has a history of conducting alternative fuels research, in collecting data from in-use equipment operating in the Marcellus Shale region.
"This collection will help us identify and quantify in-use fugitive methane emissions," Nix said. "Our next step will be to develop test cycles to conduct additional laboratory testing at CAFEE's Engines and Emissions Research Laboratory to mitigate fugitive methane."

Kokslien moved up to third place in the World Cup standings. But he is still far short of France's Jason Lamy Chappuis, who holds a commanding lead with seven events remaining.
Bernhard Gruber of Austria was third, his first top-three finish of the season.

Suggestions for a St. Patrick's Day dessert
- o
- oleanatypefood Mar 12, 2007 07:35 AM
does any one have any suggestions for a green??? dessert. I've been thinking about making a key lime pie with green lime slivers. Maybe arecipe with green pistachios .Also I 've thought about making something with Bailey's Irish cream liquer. I'd appreciate any and all ideas. thank you in advance. I'll reprt back on anything I try.
Traditional St. Patrick's Day confection ... you can even add a little green coloring to the cake and/or frosting if you so desire.
4 eggs
1-3/4 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 pounds confectioners' sugar (about 7-1/2 cups)
2/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 cups finely chopped peanuts
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla until thick and lemon-colored, about 4 minutes. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to egg mixture. Beat on low speed just until combined. Add the milk and butter; mix well. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into squares. Cover and freeze overnight.
For frosting, in a mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, milk, vanilla and salt; beat until smooth. Frosting the top, bottom and sides of frozen cake squares; roll in peanuts. Place on wire racks to dry. Yield: 2 dozen.
I made this bread pudding with whiskey sauce for a St. Patrick's Day party a while ago, and it was a hit:
The sauce is really good, and the pudding and sauce can basically be made in advance and then heated up, so it's easy when you have guests. The only downside is that if you're serving something potato-y beforehand, a bread-based dessert makes it a pretty starch-tastic meal.
I've also always wanted to make a little layer chocolate-and-coffee mousse parfait of sorts, that would look like a baby Guinness if served in a clear cup or dish, but I've never quite gotten it off the ground.
If you specifically want something green, you could also consider mint-flavored things in addition to lime.
re: mojoeater
I was thinking grasshopper pie too. I used to love it as a kid. My aunt used to make a frozen one that's good too.
You know, Alton Brown has a recipe for a cake frosting using avocado:
You could also make avocado and honey smoothies with pistacio ice cream, or lime ice cream.
The past 2 years I've made the chocolate Guinness cake from Nigella Lawson's "Feast." This year, we're having a bunch of people and I'm making that and an apple cake...probably the one from Dorie Greenspan's "Baking" book. Neither are green, but I don't think I'll have any complaints!
re: kcchan
can you post the recipe, it sounds great!
re: mom2
Sure - you can find the recipe for the Irish Cream cake here: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Irish-Cr...
(I admit, I used a box cake mix which is a big no-no for chowhounds. But, I did make my own Irish Cream from scratch, and it tasted good...)
For something light - green jello w/pineapple. Top w/fresh whipped cream. Vanilla Bean Ice cream topped w/Baily's and a green mint leaf
re: Niblet
Oh! That so reminds me of the pistachio cake my mom used to make for us as kids. Pistachio pudding mix & white cake mix gives you a green & very tasty treat. We're all adults & more than capable of making it on our own but it tastes so much better when mom does it.
Either avocado bread: http://shewhoeats.blogspot.com/2004/0...
Or matcha recipes: http://www.hibiki-an.com/default.php/...
Pistachio Creme
1 pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Pistachio Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling
1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice , undrained
1 cup Miniature Marshmallows
1/2 cup chopped Pecans
1-3/4 cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping
STIR pudding mix, undrained pineapple, marshmallows and pecans in large bowl until well blended. Gently stir in whipped topping; cover.
REFRIGERATE 1 hour or until ready to serve.
I was gonna suggest Grasshopper Pie as well.
How about Green Velvet Cake?
Instead of plain key lime, how about key lime cheesecake.
Irish Potato cake, but that's less green obviously
Not green either, but Gramercy Tavern Gingerbread is made w/ Guiness
Cheesy but cute cookies http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Irish-Fl...
Or, try this Irish Whiskey Pie (scroll down a bit) http://members.tripod.com/~MsAnn1/StP...
similar to the bailey's cake idea, you can make a choc cake either from scratch or "cheater," from mix, incorporating jameson's or bushmill's, then make buttercream using more whiskey to flavor. it's actually a lovely combo when done right, and not overpowering--not green, but you could always garnish the pretty cake with green candies or something.
You could make rainbow cookies, but color them dark green, light green and white. I did this for july 4 once and made them red white and blue. They were very popular.

"Upstream Color"
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
U.S. Dramatic
**** (four stars)
Telling you too much about Shane Carruth's surreal science-fiction trip would be unfair, not to mention quite difficult because so much is packed into it. The main story focuses on Kris (Amy Seimetz), who has to rebuild her life from scratch after an encounter with an unusual kind of identity thief (Thiago Martins) who uses mind-controlling grubs. Kris meets, in what seems like pre-destined romance, Jeff (played by Carruth), a hotel accountant who similarly had to start over in life. What they have to do with a pen full of pigs, and with a mysterious man (Andrew Sensenig) who tends to the pigs and collects audio samples, is something I'll leave for you to discover. Know that Carruth -- a one-man band who wrote, directed, produced, co-edited, photographed and wrote music for the film -- creates an evocative movie, lyrical in its composition and pacing, that will have you thinking long after its over.

Given the deep-seeded animosity that some out state Republicans have for urban areas in the state, it is shocking that the governor got his way to deploy new state troopers into Detroit, Pontiac, Saginaw and Flint.Let's be honest here. Those are not exactly Republican strongholds and traditionally GOP lawmakers have protested any influx of state dollars, but on this one the governor wins.His targeted aid for the four worse crime spots in the state and nation for that matter, had the full blessing of key suburban and out state lawmakers.On any other issue, accept crime, you would have seen some push back. Money for the Detroit cultural arts? Forget it.Money for the needy? Let them find a job.So why the acquiescence on crime? One theory goes, when those lawmakers and their constituents head to Detroit for a ball game, they want to feel safe and have a dissent shot of getting out of town without being harmed. Adding more state troopers to those cities certainly increases the chances of that.Ironically it was a former governor who started all this. After a series of ruthless crimes in Detroit, ex-Gov. Bill Milliken was the first to send in the state cops and the road patrols have been there ever since the 1970s and lawmakers have not tried to end it.And with the advent of two soon to be announced trooper schools another 180 "Smokies" will be on their way to those four cities.To underscore the solidarity on this one, the head of the Michigan Sheriffs Association was asked to check in. In the past the MSA has had its turf disputes with the state cops.One anticipated a lukewarm response to this reshuffling of scare resources into crime infested areas."That's an appropriate use of those resources," reflects MSA executive director Terry Jungel without even a hint of jealousy. "As my daddy use to say, "You gotta put the suave where the sores are."Let the suaving begin.

Irish Government to provide relief funding for the victims of the Algerian earthquake
The Minister of State with responsibility for Development Cooperation and Human Rights, Tom Kitt TD, today allocated €500,000 for emergency assistance to aid the victims of the earthquake which devastated northern Algeria on the 21st of May. This is the biggest earthquake, measuring 6.7 on the Richter Scale, to hit North African countries since 1980 and shocks were felt on the Spanish Mediterranean coast. Current reports state that there are over 2,000 people dead, over 8100 wounded and some 1,136 other missing, mainly in Boumerdes and Algiers.
The Algerian Red Crescent (ARC) was quickly mobilised in the aftermath of the disaster, rescuing victims, administering first aid and transporting the injured to hospital. ARC teams are helping in the hospitals and distributing basic needs from disaster preparedness stocks. The ARC is part of the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
The Irish Government's assistance of €500,000 is in response to an emergency appeal by IFRC to assist 10,000-20,000 people for 3 months with food and non-food items, such as blankets and medical supplies. It will also contribute to an improvement in the capacity of the Algerian Red Crescent to respond to such disasters in the future, through the provision of first aid training, monitoring, reporting and disaster management.
In addition the Government has made a contribution €150,000 to the IFRC to aid relief efforts following the floods which began in Sri Lanka on Saturday May 17. This has been the most severe flood in Sri Lanka in more than 50 years. There are reports of over 255 people dead, with over 50,000 houses destroyed and over 175,000 families affected. Some 109,000 families are homeless. As with the emergency appeal in Algeria, the assistance of €150,000 will be part of a larger total fund, and will aid some 125,000 people for three months for food and non-food items.
Commenting on the emergency assistance packages, Minister of State Kitt said;
"In a time when so much attention has been focused on situation in Iraq and the Middle East, it is crucial that we do not lose sight of the fact that devastating events are having a huge impact on the lives and livelihoods of people in other parts of the world, people who desperately need assistance. I have every confidence that, despite of the difficult challenges, the Red Cross will deliver the best available care and relief."

Countless aging Americans find themselves under constant assault from excess glucose calories. Even health-conscious, active people can experience higher-than-desired blood sugar levels as they age. Life Extension now offers an enhanced, all-natural, multipronged approach: CinSulin® with InSea2® and Crominex® 3+.
CinSulin® — Scientists worldwide are excited over the clinically validated power of a novel form of cinnamon to support healthy glucose metabolism.12,13 Scientists at the US Department of Agriculture have been quietly studying it for more than a decade.14,15 Government experts have been amazed by compelling in vitro results documenting its ability to induce a twenty-fold increase in sugar metabolism.16
Studies in humans have shown to be equally impressive. In a recent double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial,17 a group of maturing individuals (average age 61) taking 500 mg per day of the cinnamon extract contained in this CinSulin® formula experienced an average decline of 12 mg/dL in fasting blood glucose after only two months. This novel cinnamon extract also produced a significant decrease in after-meal glucose spikes (an average of 32 mg/dL) after ingestion of 75 g of carbohydrates!
An objective of those who practice calorie restriction is to maintain fasting glucose levels around 80 mg/dL of blood and after-meal glucose spikes to no greater than 40 mg/dL. CinSulin® may help more longevity enthusiasts accomplish their glucose control objective.
Cinnamon polyphenols have been found to activate our cells' glucose detection systems, enabling them to support healthy blood glucose already within normal range.18-23 Cinnamon also induces satiety (the feeling of being full) which inhibits overconsumption and optimizes after-meal blood sugar spikes at healthy levels. However, cinnamon naturally contains fat-soluble compounds known as aldehydes. The good news is that Life Extension® has identified a highly purified, water-soluble cinnamon extract.
InSea2®— Researchers have known of the many health benefits of seaweed extracts for years. Only recently has it come to light that a proprietary form of seaweed extract called InSea2® blocks the action of glucosidase and amylase — enzymes your body uses to break down carbohydrates into glucose, facilitating its transport into the bloodstream. Derived from brown seaweed and bladderwrack, a single 500 mg dose of this proprietary compound triggered a 48.3% decline in after-meal blood sugar spikes in a recent double-blind, placebo controlled trial.27
Crominex® 3+ — Long known for its role in maintaining healthy glucose metabolism, chromium has been optimized with standardized extract of Indian gooseberry and a proprietary form of the adaptogen shilajit. The name of this most advanced chromium complex is Crominex® 3+. The Crominex® 3+ complex helps support:
Combined with CinSulin® and InSea2®, the result is an unrivalled formula that affords optimal support for healthy glucose metabolism in aging individuals.

Life extension has several glucose control supplements. Which ones work best? It would be useful if reviewers who monitor their glucose to indicate the average fasting glucose and post meal glucose responses before and while using one of these products. I am approaching high than desired glucose levels but do not monitor my blood glucose. I would like to know how people's blood glucose is responding to this and the other products.

Lowers Blood Glucose

About Me Health Conscious
See all my reviews
Comments about Life Extension CinSulin® with InSea2® and Crominex® 3+, 90 vegetarian capsules:
This product really works if taken 20-30 minutes before a meal. It lowers my post-prandial (after meal) blood glucose spike by about 20 mg. Green Coffee Bean works about the same for me. Both are good products, and I use Cinsulin before my 3 main meals, and Coffee Bean before my 2 snacks every day. The only drawback is that you have to anticipate the timing of your meal in order to take this product as directed. It takes a week or two for this to become a habit. A product that did NOT work for me was the Tri-sugar Sheild, which actually raised my blood glucose.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Reno Police officers have identified the motorcyclist who died in an accident Tuesday night in Stead.
Police say 39-year-old Jarrod St. Clair of Reno was traveling on Lear Boulevard near Production Drive when he struck a car. St. Clair died on scene.
The driver of the car was flown by Care Flight to a hospital with critical injuries. That unidentified person remains in the hospital (at the time of this update.) The passenger was treated and released from the hospital on Tuesday night.
Police say alcohol and drugs do not appear to be involved in the accident, but they say speeding does appear to be a factor.
Police say they are also looking for the driver of a white passenger car that may have been traveling with the motorcycle but was not directly involved in the crash.

Either do Daniel Sturridge's dance correct, or don't do it at all
(Image: Getty)
If you hadn't noticed, Daniel Sturridge has a very identifiable dance. It's quite difficult to properly describe, but just watch a Liverpool or England game and you're likely to see him bust it out, given his torrid scoring clip.
But with great success comes great responsibility, and Sturridge told the BBC he doesn't want anyone doing his dance improperly.
"If someone does a dance that you've created, and they do it wrong, you look bad, no?" the Liverpool striker said. Makes sense! But fear not, he wants to give rhythm-less schmoes like us a tutorial.
Sturridge also hinted that the dance isn't quite complete, noting something is in the "pipeline" for next season. Maybe the tutorial should wait until we know exactly what we're up against.

"This is great," says Jackson. "I couldn't be any happier. I'm grateful and I feel honored to get that award. A lot of great players have had it."
"Even at the next level, people looked and saw a guy that's got a lot of talent, but they also saw a guy that's going to bring his lunch pale to work, and is a professional about doing the best that he can do and I think that's certainly going to help him in the future," says MSU head football coach Dan Mullen.

Conferences > Extending into the Community
4th International Conference of Aiki Extensions
Friday, October 4
At a time when media glorify violence, and martial arts get known as techniques for "fighting back," many young people believe that the best way to deal with conflict is through physical or verbal combat. This attitude generates angry outbursts that disrupt classrooms, stresses that impair students' ability to concentrate, and costly acts of violence. Aikido movements and principles offer students non-injurious solutions to conflicts, enabling them to remain calm, listen with open minds, communicate with compassion, utilize their creativity, and act with clarity.
The Greater Chicago Aikido Youth Outreach Project has identified three programs that have had success in introducing aiki options for dealing with conflict. The programs differ in format but share a commitment to active experiential learning and harmonious, constructive problem-solving. Each program will be described by its creator and chief practitioner, who will also demonstrate features of the program with a small group of novice high school students.
Saturday, October 5THE LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PUBLIC SECURITY MISSION
Aikido training has been found helpful as a way to give law enforcement officers and military personnel more resources for remaining grounded and aware in high-risk situations, a wider range of techniques for dealing with aggressors, and practices that strengthen the ethical tone of conduct both in uniform and after discharge.
The Healing Arts cluster was formed by merging previously separate groups, Bodywork and Psychotherapy, given aikido's assumption of the essential intertwining if not unity of bodily and mental processes. One area of their work consists of ways of dealing with abusive persons and their victims
As advanced students and aikido instructors, AE affiliates naturally seek to enrich their command of ways to teach the practice more effectively—an interest that rarely gets satisfied beyond the confines of their dojos or associations. Aiki Extensions offers an opportunity to pursue that enrichment, and a milieu where senseis feel safe to try exotic techniques, explore "mistakes," and challenge conventional modalities.

Girls beat Bellingham, fall to Ferndale
Published on Wed, Apr 17, 2013 by
Ian Ferguson
Read More
The girls softball team had their ups and downs this week, tallying one lopsided win against Bellingham and a loss against Ferndale to bring their Northwest Conference (NWC) record to 3–3.
The Ferndale Golden Eagles jumped out to a 5–zip lead in the first inning at home on April 15 before Blaine pitcher Ashley Bolick reined them in, blanking them for the next five innings. Ferndale pitcher Lauren Maley held Blaine hitless for four innings, and it wasn't until the fifth that Blaine began its comeback run.
In the bottom of the fifth, Blaine was still losing 5–0 when Baylee Foster stepped up to the plate. She hit a leadoff triple and the next batter, Margaret Williams, walked to first base.
With runners on first and third,
Mikayla Deming laid down a textbook bunt. The ball trickled in front of the plate to halfway between the pitcher and the catcher – the sweet spot for the often attempted, rarely perfected squeeze play. Foster scored, and the throw to first went wide. Williams capitalized on the error, rounding third and making it home to turn Deming's bunt into a double RBI.
"It was our first successful squeeze," said head coach Alisa Burk. "I tell the girls when we make plays like that, it causes chaos for the other team. It was exactly what we wanted."
With Deming on second, Selena Pai hit a home run that sailed over the left center wall. The two-run homer brought the score to 5–4, turning a rout into a tight ball game for the vocally inspired home crowd.
Neither team scored in the sixth inning pitcher's duel. In the seventh, Ferndale scored two runs, putting the pressure on Blaine to score three runs to tie the game. Unfortunately, the Borderites only put one more point on the board, and Ferndale won the conference matchup 7–5.
"We were able to turn it around, but it wasn't enough to come back," Burk said. "If we could take away that first inning, this would be a different story."
Burk gave a shout-out to Bolick, who batted 3–4 with two doubles and a run, and racked up 10 strikeouts on the mound.
"She was pretty phenomenal," Burk said. "She could have easily given up out there, but the team came together and made it a good game."
In an away game on April 11, Blaine crushed Bellingham 23–1 in five innings.
Pai and Dacia Blanco both hit 2–3 with two RBI. Bolick pitched all five innings for Blaine, holding the Red Raiders to one hit. Yet to win a game this season, Bellingham committed 11 errors in the game.
The Borderites take on Meridian (1–3 NWC) in an away NWC game Friday, April 19.

"We call them family reunions and believe me that's what we think of them as" says Peggy Lambert.
Lambert doesn't just own the collectibles, she wears her passion, with a tattoo.
"It's called, turn your eyes upon Jesus and I had it done just because I thought that it was respectful" says Lambert.
Siefert and his wife Connie, together, have bought and sold about 18,000 pieces, not including their personal collection of 4,000.
"You can't have everything but we try to get everything and we really like the rare pieces or the odd stuff, we really like looking for those" says Seifert.
Officials say that collectors from all over the worlds have been coming to this event since 1990 to get their own special one of a kind pieces.
"We actually have an individual here from the Philippines, we have Hawaii, we have Canada, we have Florida, we have California, we have Texas, just all over the United States, there are precious moments fans everywhere" says the Precious Moments National Club Manager, Mishelle Hoover.
Lambert says that the reason many keep coming back, isn't just because of the collectibles.
"In a strange way the figurines almost became secondary to meeting up with friends, we of course still buy the figurines but we look forward to seeing the friends" says Lambert.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Another lawsuit has been filed over the December gas line explosion in Sissonville
The suit was filed this week in Kanawha County Circuit Court against NiSource and subsidiary Columbia Gas Transmission.
The Dec. 11 explosion and blaze destroyed houses, sent flames shooting nearly 100 feet into the air on Interstate 77 and melted asphalt and guardrails on the highway. No one was killed or seriously injured.
The Charleston Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/183p6R5) that Paul and Conda Beaver allege that the companies didn't properly maintain the transmission pipeline that ruptured.
NiSource says it took immediate action after the blast and ensured things like housing and food were provided for those affected. The company said it has settled lawsuits with and provided compensation to more than 40 families impacted by the explosion.

When it comes to classy behavior, you can pretty much count on Charlie Sheen to never, EVER display it. Charlie, whose twins Bob and Max are now spending time with mom Brooke Mueller after months of them living with Charlie's other ex-wife, Denise Richards, trashes Brooke in an epic TMZ rant. "It's a horror show," Charlie says of Brooke's parenting skills, adding that she should get ten years in jail. And that's some of the nicer things he said.
Charlie doesn't want Brooke to regain custody of their toddler twins, so his solution is to rant about her to the media. "The kids [are] around drugs," he tells TMZ. "They're around drug dealers ... very nefarious type people. It's a house filled with creeps and cretins." (Nice alliteration, Charlie.)
Does anyone see the irony of Charlie Sheen complaining about the company his ex keeps? I do but I'm pretty sure Charlie doesn't.
He then goes on to say that Brooke has 12 Chinese dragon water lizards and several tarantulas living in her house -- and that her kids are terrified of them. He claims that his son, Bob, can't get through a night without "waking up screaming about lizard and spider monsters."
Brooke, for her part, says the kids love the critters and play with them for hours.
Charlie also claims the kids are fine when they leave his place to visit their mom, but come back "incorrigible," kicking the dogs, attacking their half-sisters, and showing "Jekyll and Hyde" behavior. In probably the worst accusation of all, he says he's convinced the twins' bad behavior is a result of fetal alcohol syndrome.
Charlie says he plans to continue fighting with everything he's got to keep the kids from Brooke -- despite that children's service monitors give Brooke "glowing" reviews. He claims those are "works of fiction."
Well, I'll say this for Charlie, he does seem to love his kids -- and he also claims that he will step up to be a full time parent instead of letting his ex Denise parent them. "Any time someone decides to step up and do the right thing is the right time," he says.
But I do feel sorry for these kids. Despite their Hollywood riches, they have basically had very little parenting from their biological parents.
Hopefully, these two will someday come together to try and work out their personal issues for the sake of their children. But it's unlikely given the bitter ranting Charlie is indulging in now.
Do you think Charlie should be saying all of this stuff about his kids' mother?

Nobody else would surely get as many breaks as they have given Brooke. She has proven time and time again to be a lousy mother. She has been in rehab how many times? I lost count. It has been proven she neglects her kids. She trashes Charlie in the media constantly. It wasn't that long ago that he couldn't have any contact at all with his kids. Now the CPS is retaliating by cancelling his visits. She must have an in with somebody there.
Right you are Melissa!
I think Charlie is right. I can't say he's much better.. but who knows, maybe he'll change and be the better parent that his children need. Maybe he's finally opened his eyes.
but it's ok for his kids to be expeosed to drug addict porn stars. Also, does he expect us to believe he isn't a crackhead junkie?
