Beautiful Save the Dates!
Majestic Connection Save the Date Magnets Placing the order through magnet street was AMAZING! The design process was so easy! I tend to be very skeptical when I place orders online because I'm always afraid that what I designed would look different in person. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the colors I chose and approved online were the EXACT colors in person. I was extremely pleased with the quality of the magnet as well as the photos. All of our guests loved our save the dates. I also loved the case they came in. It was a very nice gift! I am looking forward to order our wedding invitations with Magnet Street.

Shreveport Police have identified the man who died after being hit by several cars along I220 in West Shreveport late Sunday night.
Police say evidence suggests that 51-year-old Curtis Bentley of Palestine, Texas was driving his Mazda 3 west on Jefferson Paige Road when he clipped the center median at Rose Street. Investigators say the car kept going west in the eastbound lane until it hit another median where Jefferson Paige Road goes over I-220. That hit sent the car over a bridge railing and down to the shoulder of I-220, catching fire on the way down.
He survived the crash, but was killed after apparently being run over by at least five vehicles after he got out of his car and attempted to cross the interstate.
Police confirm that officers were called to an incident involving Bentley at the nearby Plantation Inn just minutes before they were notified of the major accident that also turned out to involve him. The call to the Plantation Inn came in at 11:09 p.m. The accident call came in at 11:11.
SPD Cpl. Marcus Hines says the crash remains under investigation, as well as what led up to it. They have interviewed the driver of the pickup truck who first hit Bentley, but they are still trying to identify other drivers involved in the accident.

One in five Americans will get the flu this winter, with more than 200,000 sick enough to be hospitalized. Yet most of us still don't get vaccinated, often because of misconceptions about the shot. Here are four of the most common, along with the facts you need to know.
1. Myth: Only the elderly and those at high risk need to be immunized.
Fact: Influenza can make anyone, including the healthiest among us, seriously ill, and even if you don't develop symptoms yourself, you can pass the virus on to others.
2. Myth: The flu shot itself can give you a case of the flu.
Fact: The virus used in the vaccine is grown in chicken eggs and killed off before it reaches your bloodstream. There's absolutely nothing in it capable of causing the flu.
10 Ways Your Wrecking Your Immune System
3. Myth: You need a doctor's appointment for a shot. Who has time?
Fact: Drugstores and health clinics across the country provide walk-in vaccinations, and more and more local health organizations are setting up drive-through flu shot clinics.
4. Myth: If I have a cold, I should postpone getting a flu shot.
Fact: As long as you're not suffering from a major illness or running a temperature higher than 101°F, the flu shot doesn't present a health risk for you, according to experts.

That's right, a computer game about football management can help you to develop skills that are useful for your career.. and I don't mean getting a job as a Football Manager. For those who don't know what it is, Football Manager (FM) is a simulation game, developed by Sports Interactive (SI), that puts you into the hot-seat of managing a football club.
So how can you weave 'Playing FM' into an interview? What is the skill that FM can help you to develop? It's Analytics, that's why it fits in this blog. If we look at what skills are currently in demand in the workplace it's Big data. Companies, everywhere, are looking for people who can analyze the data that they generate.
So how does Football Manager help you develop valuable career skills?
I started playing FM under its previous carnation (Championship Manager), One of the common complaints were that after playing the game over many seasons, some of the newly generated players looked odd and the game appeared unbalanced, e.g (defenders were no longer brave). So I built a tool in my spare time that analyzed player attributes to see if there were differences in how players evolved over time to check for big differences. This taught me to code a little and how to analyze data.
It's a simple tool that spat out a text file that showed you the differences between the data at 2 different points in time (e.g. do all defenders lose the ability to be aggressive in 20 years time?). SI used it at the time, however, I eventually became too busy to be able to do this, and I'm pretty sure SI developed their own tools to do this much much better than the buggy code I created.
The later versions of FM makes it possible for anyone to develop analytical skills - I've purposely selected some screenshots below that show you what Football Manager is all about.
This screen shot shows you how well a player has improved.
This one shows you their training regime.
One aspect of improving any product is testing. This means changing variables and checking the results. For example, in a web page you may want to improve the % of people who sign up. You usually do this by split testing, or A/B testing. Then you analyze the data set afterwards.
Look at those 2 screens… it's the same principal. You tweak the training program, you assign different players to each program and then you compare the results to see which is more effective. There are a lot of people who are doing this already and unaware about the skills they are developing and how transferable they are to the real world. Take a look at the Tactics and Training Forum and you'll find a lot of deep analytical talk where people discuss how to tweak training programs to improve players the most. It's a hotbed of statistical analysis, A/B testing, spllit testing, metrics, measurement… no different to a professional analytics group on LinkedIn.
If you're looking to develop your skills using FM, I recommend you use FM Genie Scout… some people may call it cheating… but it's the ability to use it for data analysis that makes it so useful. Look at this screenshot -
It could be Google Analytics. The history function let's record multiple data points. Here's how you would perform a split test playing the game and using this tool -
It makes it easier to discover what changes are more effective for which player attribute, not much difference to optimizing a website or product… the fundamental skills are the same. For those who are more advanced, you can spit the data out into a spreadsheet. Once you've done this over several data points, you can plot any graph or create pivot tables to analyze player progression.
And that is how Football Manager can help you to develop real skills that are needed today.
5 notes &
In my previous post. I talked about getting retention and engagement metrics out of split testing.
Here's a practical example of how to do A/B testing using Flurry.
Create an App_Launch event that happens whenever your app is started or brought back from the background
When you log the event, pass it with a parameter A(name of split test) or B(name of split test). You can decide in advance if the app should use the 'A' version or the 'B' version using some device variable such as the MAC address or UDID.
For the purpose of this post, I will use a conventional 'marketing' conversion split test. The position of the in-app purchase button as the illustration of the 'split test'. However, it could be for anything, the number of coins a new user receives on starting a game, the order of the tabs at the bottom, the layout of a particular screen, etc. In this example, people in group A have the in-app purchase in the top of the screen. People in group B have it pop-up. Marketing wants to know which positioning maximises conversions…but we want to also see the impact on engagement and retention, which I will talk about in a later post.
1) Create 2 segments inside Flurry
You have now created 2 segments that can dissect the user behaviour of both of these parties.
2) Check the conversion
This shows 608 people converted. That's just below 10% in conversion
Do the same for B, and now you can compare the conversion rates. In my example, B has 6320 and 478 conversions. Use a tool such as this online calculator and we find that it is statistically significant.
3) The Bonus Engagement and Metrics
If you go back to the event summary, you can download all the A and B data in CSV format. Go ahead and do that.
Then create a spreadsheet with 3 sheets. A, B and statistical significance. Then you can create a spreadsheet that can test your whole app across all its events, by adding a statistical test to each event. I used this basic formula-
=(((0.5*('Split Test A'!B2+'Split Test B'!B2))-'Split Test A'!B2)^2)/(0.5*('Split Test A'!B2+'Split Test B'!B2))+(((0.5*('Split Test A'!B2+'Split Test B'!B2))-'Split Test B'!B2)^2)/(0.5*('Split Test A'!B2+'Split Test B'!B2))
But there are plenty of other formulas that maybe more suitable for you..
Next, colour code the spreadsheet so that any significant differences are highlighted and then you can see the impact of the A/B test beyond the scope of just the conversion.
This can bring you many different insights. For example, conversion maybe higher for in app purchases but the number of people recommending or sharing the app using a tweet or facebook button decreases for that group.
Remember to check in which direction the result is statistically significant.
3 notes &
For most people, A/B testing analytics (or split testing) is all about conversion. How can I redesign this webpage to get more people to click through to my goal? How can I get more people to sign up. It's all about acquisition, acquisition, acquisition… actually there's more to it than that.
For mobile app analytics, A/B testing tools generally support campaign or content optimization focused on conversion, clicks or triggers. This is fine if what you are doing is marketing focused, acquisition focused or activation focused.. but it doesn't really help much with engagement or retention. What if you wanted to find out the impact of :-
etc. what change will increase retention, not just conversions. What change will increase use of other features?
What conventional A/B testing doesn't tell you -
In fact there's a very easy way to do this using event attributes or event parameters (depends on the app analytics tool you use). In your app framework, assign people who are in the 'A' group with an event attibute/parameter as 'Test Group A' and likewise for 'B' in their App Launch event or whatever naming convention makes sense for you. You can give more unique names for different tests.
By doing this, you have segmented your users into A & B and now you can test the impact across every event/metric in your app.
Segment and extract all the data into a spreadsheet and you can then statistically test them like this -
In the above chart anything in Green was tested as statistically significant. This gives a deeper insight into what other changes occured due to the A/B test and means you can make A/B tests beyond thinking about 'click' or 'tap' conversions at the top level, remove features that don't add to engagement, retention or revenue.
Secondarily, using tools which provide retention or lifecycle metrics, you can create a segment using the event parameter and see which version really does provide more retention and allows you to make more discoveries
These are some of the potential discoveries just looking beyond the basic A/B test.
Do you have any mobile analytics tricks to share?

Geography and climate
South Africa's geographySouth Africa occupies the southern tip of Africa, its long coastline stretching more than 2�500km from the desert border with Namibia on the Atlantic coast, southwards around the tip of Africa, then north to the border with subtropical Mozambique on the Indian Ocean. The low-lying coastal zone is narrow for much of that distance, soon giving way to a mountainous escarpment that separates it from the high inland plateau. In some places, notably the province of KwaZulu-Natal in the east, a greater distance separates the coast from the escarpment.
Size and provincesSouth Africa is a medium-sized country, with a total land area of slightly more than 1.2-million square kilometres, making it roughly the same size as Niger, Angola, Mali, and Colombia. It is one-eighth the size of the US, twice the size of France, and over three times the size of Germany. South Africa measures about 1�600km from north to south, and roughly the same from east to west.
Map: Mary Alexander, MediaClubSouthAfrica.com
BordersOn dry land, going from west to east, South Africa shares long borders with Namibia and Botswana, touches Zimbabwe, has a longitudinal strip of border with Mozambique to the east, and lastly curves in around Swaziland before rejoining Mozambique's southern border. In the interior, nestled in the curve of the bean-shaped Free State, is the small mountainous country of Lesotho, completely surrounded by South African territory.
CitiesSouth Africa has three capitals:
Cape Town, in the Western Cape, is the legislative capital and is where the
country's Parliament is found.
Bloemfontein, in the Free State, is the judicial capital, and home to the Supreme Court of Appeal.
Pretoria, in Gauteng, is the administrative capital, and the ultimate capital of the country. It is home to the Union Buildings and a large proportion of the public service.
Climate and topographyAlthough the country is classified as semi-arid, South Africa has considerable variation in climate as well as topography. The great inland Karoo plateau, where rocky hills and mountains rise from sparsely populated scrubland, is very dry, and gets more so as it shades in the north-west towards the Kalahari desert. Extremely hot in summer, it can be icy in winter.
Oceans and riversBy far South Africa's biggest neighbour is the ocean � or two oceans, which meet at the southwestern corner. Its territory includes Marion and Prince Edward Islands, nearly 2�000km from Cape Town in the Atlantic Ocean. The cold Benguela current sweeps up from the Antarctic along the Atlantic coast, laden with plankton and providing rich fishing grounds. The east coast has the north-to- south Mozambique/Agulhas current to thank for its warm waters. These two currents have a major effect on the country's climate, the ready evaporation of the eastern seas providing generous rainfall while the Benguela current retains its moisture to cause desert conditions in the west.

The President of Liberia Fulah Association, Bella Diallo, has called on the government for the establishment of a National Standard Body for the importation and exportation of goods in the country.
Mr. Diallo said the establishment of a National Standard Body by the government will ensure the exanimation of goods coming into the country aimed at saving citizens.
He made the statement last Friday during discussion concerning a bill seeking the establishment of a National Standard Body in Liberia, headed by Representative Fofi S. Baimbasv from Lofa County.
He also indicated that Standard Body is essential for the development of Liberia in the areas of trade capacity building and export potential as such law would ensure the importation and exportation of goods meet international regional standards.
It also highlighted that the issue of Standard Body should be government priority because of the influx of sub-standard goods and low prices received from some exports such as cocoa due to poor quality.
The forum identified lack of mechanism for testing products entering the country, thereby aiding the quality of goods to be sub-standard and dangerous for human consumption, something the government needs to take some actions on in order to protect the lives of citizens.

Children with CF have an abnormality in the function of a cell protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR). CFTR controls the flow of water and certain salts in and out of the body's cells. As the movement of salt and water in and out of cells is altered, mucus becomes thickened.
In the reproductive system, the thickened secretions can cause obstructions and affect the development and function of the sexual organs.
Most males with CF have obstruction of the sperm canal known as congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD). Women also have an increase in thick cervical mucus that may lead to a decrease in fertility. This condition has not been reported to affect sexual drive or performance.
Symptoms that may be present due to the effects of CF on the reproductive system include:
Delayed sexual development
Absence or stopping of menstruation
Irregular menstrual periods
Inflammation of the cervix
Infertility or sterility
Both men and women should consider the added demands of parenthood and how it might affect their own health. The decision is personal, and you should talk with your health care team if you are considering parenting or having a baby.

Easy Chicken Chimichangas
I have been meaning to post a recipe for these easy chicken chimichangas for years! This was one of our family's favorite recipes growing up. I loved them because they were always so warm and delicious. But I now know that my mom loved making them because the recipe calls for a whopping FIVE ingredients. Yes, five. (And one of those is just the melted butter to brush on the tortillas – does that even count?)
Either way, these 5 (or 4) ingredient chimichangas are a breeze to make! Just mix together some cooked shredded chicken (I often use a rotisserie chicken to keep it simple), some of your favorite salsa and cheese, and then wrap the mixture in a tortilla brushed with butter and bake! Not long later, these cute little pockets are nice and crispy and buttery on the outside and overflowing with spicy salsa flavor on the inside. Definitely my idea of comfort food. And since I'm often cooking for one, I also love these because they are easy to freeze and then pop out when I'm ready for a single serving. So easy and so flavorful, and all the more healthy when made with fresh salsa and oven-baked!
So the next time a Mexi craving hits, or you just have some leftover salsa or chicken to put to use, I definitely recommend making it a chicken chimichanga night!
Easy Chicken Chimichangas
- 2 cups shredded or chopped cooked chicken
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese
- 2/3 cup salsa (drained of excess water, if possible)
- 6 (8-inch) tortillas
- 1 Tbsp. melted butter
- Optional Toppings: sour cream, additional salsa or diced tomatoes, guacamole and/or fresh cilantro
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil and mist with cooking spray.
In a bowl, stir together chicken, cheese and salsa until well-mixed. Spoon approximately 1/2 cup of the mixture into the center of a tortilla. Fold in the sides, then roll the tortilla from bottom to top to make a chimichanga (burrito) shape. Place the chimichanga seam side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling mixture, then brush the outside of the tortillas with melted butter.
Bake for 25 minutes until tortillas are golden brown. Remove and serve immediately, with additional toppings if desired.

Simon Pegg Interview: Barfing on the 'Star Trek Into Darkness' Set, Deleted Scenes and 'The World's End'
Before we all get to see 'Star Trek Into Darkness' in theaters, we had the good fortune to speak with our old chum Simon Pegg, following a riveting conversation with his co-star Karl Urban about all things Bones McCoy,
For Scotty fans, 'Into Darkness' is a big wet kiss, as our ol' Aberdeen pub crawler/inadvertent inventor of transwarp beaming is all over this movie, offering laughs, cheers and thrills. Take a look at our conversation to learn about why, one day, he barfed on set. (Also, there are itty bitty SPOILERS in here, but all pertaining to stuff that happens early enough. Just read the damn thing and don't be that guy.)

Those into humorous English comedy would have a hard time finding something better than this. The story is told by Bertam Wooster, who is also one of the main characters. I think that Bertram Wooster is loveable, gullible, a bit of a wimp, and a man who strongly needs and depends upon Jeeves. Who is Jeeves? Why, he is Bertram's valet, to be sure. Jeeves is the mastermind behind every sucess, he is the cornerstone of every idea, in fact, without him, there would be no story. Jeeves is a man who, when difficult problems are posed, is called upon to supply the answers. Bertram has a hard time turning people down, which is shown in this book. He also is very susceptible to blackmail. I think that this book is a top notch read.

By Bernard Vaughan
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A federal judge on Tuesday ordered New York's "cannibal cop" released from jail after overturning the former city police officer's conviction for plotting to kidnap, kill and cook women.
U.S. District Judge Paul Gardephe in Manhattan threw out the conviction of Gilberto Valle, 30, after federal public defenders argued that the U.S. Constitution grants people the right to fantasize, free from government interference.
Entering the packed courtroom, a beaming Valle, wearing jail-issued blue pants and top, hugged his lawyers and nodded to family members.
Gardephe ordered Valle released on $100,000 bond. He also said Valle would be subject to home detention with GPS monitoring, mental health treatment and could have no access to the Internet.
Prosecutors during Valle's trial said he searched on the Internet for homemade recipes for chloroform to subdue victims as well as recipes for cooking human flesh.
Defense lawyers had argued that Valle never acted after nearly a year of fantasizing about kidnapping, murdering and eating roughly two dozen women - in many cases in online discussions with other fetishists. The women in his fantasies included his estranged wife, Kathleen Mangan-Valle.
At the hearing on Tuesday, prosecutor Hadassa Waxman told the judge that the government respected his decision but would appeal.
"The government believes the jury got it right," Waxman said of the March 2013 jury verdict convicting Valle of conspiracy to kidnap. But Gardephe acquitted Valle, a former New York City police officer dubbed the "cannibal cop" by local tabloid media, on the charge of conspiracy to kidnap. He was awaiting sentencing.
Gardephe upheld Valle's conviction on a lesser charge of improperly accessing a law enforcement database, which prosecutors said he used to help find his intended victim. That charge carries a sentence up to one year in prison. His lawyer, Julia Gatto, told Gardephe that Valle, who has spent more than 18 months in jail, "has already served that time and then some."
Prosecutors said Valle crossed the line from fantasy to reality by taking specific action in conspiring to kidnap women. Valle's attorney had argued that he was merely engaged in online fantasy role playing.
"The evidentiary record is such that it is more likely than not the case that all of Valle's Internet communications about kidnapping are fantasy role-play," Gardephe wrote in his 118-page opinion.
The trial brought to light a macabre cyberspace community where millions of people discuss and exchange images and video of extraordinary brutality, much of it staged.
In March, a federal jury convicted two other men, Michael Van Hise and Christopher Asch, for conspiring to kidnap women in order to satisfy sexual fetishes for rape and murder they initially nursed online. A third co-conspirator, Richard Meltz, pleaded guilty to two kidnapping conspiracy counts. It was unclear if Gardephe's decision would impact those cases, which stemmed from the Federal Bureau of Investigation's case against Valle.
After Tuesday's hearing, Gatto said Valle was "guilty of nothing more than very unconventional thoughts."
But, Gatto said, "We don't put people in jail for their thoughts."
Valle's mother, Elizabeth Valle, said after the hearing that she planned to spend a lot of time with her son and "cook him his favorite meal."

Angels Among Us pet rescue saved a three-legged dog over the weekend.
The dog they named Merle is a pit bull mix. The rescue group saved him from euthanasia at the Fulton County Animal Shelter.
"I thought he suffered so much already he deserved a second chance," rescuer Melissa De Feis said.
De Feis couldn't bear the thought of dog being put down.
"As soon as I saw him with that missing leg, I knew that his death was imminent and he was going to be put down, and I knew I wanted to save him," De Feis said.
She named the dog Merle and brought him to Georgia Veterinary Specialists.
"He's fairly emaciated. He hasn't been fed regularly in some time, but the injury itself is not so bad, being further down on the leg is better," veterinarian Alan Cross said.
Cross isn't sure how Merle lost his limb, but he'll amputate it and relieve some of his pain.
"Dogs don't have the same emotional attachment to the limbs. They don't have to worry about what the other dogs think," Cross said.
He expects Merle to make a full recovery.
"Most dogs bounce back from amputation within a couple of days, and within a couple weeks, they figure out how to walk on three and do fantastic," Cross said.
That's all De Feis could hope for.
"I just knew he'd suffered so much and thought he deserved a better life and a chance to heal and to live a happy life," De Feis said.
Merle already has a potential foster mom for when he recovers. The surgery costs about $4,000. Angels Among Us is raising money to pay for it.

The British boy band blood feud between One Direction and The Wanted is over, at least according to The Wanted's Nathan Sykes. Sykes spoke to MTV News, saying, "I think both ourselves and One Direction are, as far as I'm concerned, whatever kinds of words were said since I wasn't really part of it, think it kind of [went away now,] which is awesome." He added, "I think it's the best people really concentrate on the success that we're both having and how well [we're doing,] which is always great."
In fact, Sykes, ever the peacemaker, isn't ruling out the possibility that the two groups will work together in the future. "You never know, you never know! I think with Backstreet Boys and New Kids [On The Block], that's really cool what they did, and there's been some great collaborations. You never know."
The real question is whether Directioners and TWFanmily can also bury the hatchet. Would they rally around a 1D-Wanted collaboration? Let us know what you think in the comments.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Clayton Kershaw shrugged off a two-run homer by Jose Abreu in the rookie's return from the disabled list, pitching the Los Angeles Dodgers past the Chicago White Sox 5-2 Monday night for his first home win of the season.
Justin Turner's two-run single keyed a five-run sixth inning in which all the Dodgers' runs were unearned.
Kershaw (4-2) allowed four hits over eight innings, striking out nine and walking none. Kenley Jansen got three outs for his 17th save.
Jose Quintana (3-5) gave up six hits through six innings and was charged with five unearned runs.
The Dodgers parlayed two infield errors, four singles and a walk into the five-run rally that put them ahead 5-2. All the runs came with two outs.

I love these boots...the suede is so soft and the interior is uber comfy on the feet, and that's saying a lot since I usually have a hard time finding comfortable shoes. I bought the pewter/gray color (which is awesome and seems to be one of the "it" colors this season). The color shown on the website is not 100% accurate...the gray is more of a steely gray, not as much of a taupe as the photo makes them look. But still love 'em.

It was five in the afternoon, the end of Jimmy Michel's work shift at Broward College. His sister was supposed to pick him up across the street. But as he was crossing Davie Road to get to the rendezvous point, Michel was hemmed in by a semi-circle of as many as five police cruisers from the Davie Police Department.
"Put your hands on your head!" ordered one, Officer Stephen Alston, who had drawn his service weapon and was pointing it at Michel.
Thus began an ordeal in which the 31-year-old sound technician was frisked, cuffed, subjected to a roadside lineup and, he says, finally scolded by police for not affording them the proper respect. They were looking for the man who had robbed a woman in the parking lot of the nearby Palm Trace Landings apartment complex.
Michel, a lifelong South Floridian who has no criminal record, says he was told repeatedly he "fit the description" of the robber. To Michel, that meant one thing: "I'm black."
Davie Police Capt. Dale Engle says officers were operating with a more detailed description, pieced together from the victim and a CVS security guard who saw someone running from the crime scene. That description: black male, mid-20s, jeans, dark shirt, 5-6' to 5-8, carrying a black backpack.
Michel says he is 6-3 not 5-6, wasn't carrying a gun when he was stopped, didn't have any of the stolen items, and was never a threat to anybody. He did have a beard, did carry a backpack (filled, he says, with empty lunch bowls, a tablet, a hard drive, a lamp and pens) and did have on jeans and a dark shirt, although the latter clearly stated he was from Broward College. He was uncuffed and freed after about 45 minutes, Michel says, when witnesses, (presumably the victim and the guard) were driven to the spot but could not ID him.
Afterward, he wrote up his story, thinking it would resonate with others who complain of being subjected to similar indignities. Calling it his "Affidavit of Truth," he shared it with the Miami Herald under the heading "Walking While Black." Here are excerpts:
Officer Alston grabbed my hands and began to kick my left leg while saying," "Spread your feet!"
Now there were three (3) police officers immediately around me that I could see. One on my left, one behind me who I think was Officer Alston, and another on my right.
Officer Alston began frisking me. While frisking he asked, "What's your name?"
I responded, "Jimmy Michel."
I said, "I work at Broward College. You can see it on my shirt."
I asked "What's going on?'
An officer shouted, "There's been a robbery!"
Officer Alston then said, "You fit the description!"
I said, "Black."
The police cruisers' lights flashed. Rubberneckers — including colleagues leaving work — had a ringside seat to Michel's humiliation as they whizzed past.
Michel: "I said I'm across the street from my job. This is embarrassing."
He says they told him again: "You fit the description!"
Michel says he asked the officers repeatedly to look in his book bag, that he could account for its contents. They would not.
His sister Jessica, an aspiring police officer eight years his junior, drove up. The officers told her to park the car and wait.
Michel: : My sister asked me, "What happened?" I said, "You won't believe it. I fit the description."
At some point, Michel was placed in handcuffs — "for officers' safety," according to the police incident report.
Michel: "I said, "Oh, my God, are you kidding me? I didn't do it."
My sister got out of her car and asked, "Why are you arresting him?"
Police officers — who would later explain that Michel was "detained" and never under arrest — told him then that they were waiting for a witness to be brought byand say whether he was or wasn't the armed robber.
After a while, a police cruiser pulled into the parking lot where Michel was now being detained. The cruiser, apparently bearing a witness, parked. No one emerged. After three minutes, the cruiser drove away.
Michel: I said "Of course she's not going to recognize me, because it's not me. So let me go."
About that time, a black man rode by on a bike. He was wearing a light gray shirt and tan pants.
Michel: Sgt. Davis ordered another officer, "Go get him!"
I turned around and asked, "Why am I still here? Your witness can't ID me because I'm not the person. I know all black people look alike but your officers won't check my book bag after I repeatedly asked him to verify that only my items are in there."
A Sgt. Davis said: "You fit the description!"
I said, "Are you kidding me? What's the description?"
Michel said Sgt Davis then told him the description: " Black guy, black shirt, blue jeans with a beard."
Ok, said Michel, then why did you just tell that officer to stop the cyclist? His clothing in no way matched the description of the armed robber.
Michel said Sgt. Davis responded: " Uh, well. he has on a backpack. Clothes could be in there."
About 10 minutes later, a second police cruiser drove into the parking lot, evidently carrying the second witness. The CVS guard had not seen the robbery, but had reported seeing a black man run past him and throw a clear Tupperware container to the ground. The parking lot ritual was repeated. The witness remained inside the police car. After a brief interval, the cruiser drove away.
It was apparent to Michel that neither of the witnesses had identified him. He began to complain that the cuffs were too tight and that his hands were getting "tingly"
Michel: Sgt. Davis or Officer Alston" both touched the handcuffs and say, "No, they are all right."
Michel sensed the officers were getting tired of his attitude.
Michel: A Lt. Fernandez said, "You need to respect us!"
"I said respect goes both ways. I'm the one in handcuffs.
Officer Alston asked, "Jimmy, what do you want us to do?"
I said, "Let me go. You got nothing."
And finally, they did just that.
That night, Michel couldn't sleep so he sat down at his computer and typed out his "Affidavit of Truth," a 13-page document that described the encounter in excruciating detail. Two days later, he went to the Davie police station and presented it. He says the detective who took it stated, "We don't need it."
He was invited to file an internal affairs complaint if he wished.
Capt. Engle. who says internal affairs is looking into the matter, read Michel's affidavit and believes the episode happened "much the way he said it did."
But he added, "From what I read, even based on what he says, the officers were within their rights to do what they did.
"They responded to an armed robbery. Unfortunately this guy was in the area. He matched the general description of two people. I think the officers have an obligation to the community to try to see if that was him," Engle said.
As to Michel's pleas that cops look inside his backpack, Engle said there was no need. He could have tossed the gun and stolen goods (purse, cell phone credit cards and $7) at any point.
As for the significant difference between the height described by the victim and the much taller Michel (although he says he is 6-3, public records say 6-1), Engle said people being robbed at gunpoint often fixate on the barrel of the weapon, and may take little note of the robber's height.
All of which is of little comfort to Michel.
"What was super upsetting to me — aside from begin put in handcuffs — is that they didn't even have the courtesy to apologize for being wrong," he said..
"If you're wrong your wrong, You should be able to say. 'Hey look, man, We're sorry it wasn't you.'.... But not even that."
As of last week, police were still looking for the robber.

Free NRT Program Helps New York City Smokers Quit
A large-scale program to provide free, 6-week courses of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) patches to 34,000 heavy smokers in New York City resulted in at least 6,000 successful smoking "quits" at a cost of $463 per quit, according to a study reported in the May 28 Lancet.
The study, conducted by the New York City and New York State health departments - in collaboration with Roswell Park Cancer Institute - addressed the many smokers who "will not be reached by cessation treatment offered in clinical settings." The free patch program received a major publicity launch in 2003, which led almost 40,000 smokers to call the New York smokers quitline.
Eligible smokers were sent 6-week courses of NRT patches. Counseling telephone calls were attempted at 3 and 14 weeks, successfully reaching more than 15,000 smokers. Recipients also were sent a follow-up survey at 6 months to assess smoking status and quit attempts.
"An estimated 5 percent of all adults in New York City who smoked 10 cigarettes or more daily received NRT" under the program, the researchers reported. "Most (64 percent) recipients were nonwhite, foreign-born, or resided in a low-income neighborhood." Among individuals contacted at 6 months, more NRT recipients successfully quit smoking than comparison group members who did not receive NRT patches - 33 percent versus 6 percent. Based on the conservative assumption that all nonresponders to the follow-up survey continued smoking, researchers estimated the quit rate among NRT recipients at 20 percent.
Improved Breast Cancer Outcomes Seen with Docetaxel Adjuvant Regimen
Substituting docetaxel (Taxotere) for fluorouracil in an adjuvant chemotherapy regimen for node-positive breast cancer improves disease survival and decreases risk of disease relapse, an international research team reported last week. At 55 months follow-up, the adjuvant regimen of docetaxel, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide - dubbed TAC - yielded a 28-percent improvement in disease-free survival compared with a regimen known as FAC, for fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (75 percent vs. 68 percent).
The international study, the Breast Cancer International Research Group 001 trial, involved nearly 1,500 patients from 20 countries. After adjuvant chemotherapy, regardless of the regimen, patients received tamoxifen, radiation therapy, or both, explained study lead author Dr. Miguel Martin of the Hospital Universitario San Carlos in Madrid, Spain, in the June 2 New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).
The superiority of TAC compared with FAC, however, came at the expense of increased toxic effects, namely febrile neutropenia: 24.7 percent in TAC patients compared with 2.5 percent of FAC patients. This occurred - wrote Dr. Edith A. Perez of the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Fla., in a related editorial in NEJM - "despite the prophylactic use of antibiotics and the introduction of [granulocyte-colony stimulating factor] support after the first episode of febrile neutropenia or infection."
Dr. Perez also noted that the TAC regimen was compared with a regimen that is no longer the standard of care in this patient population. The standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy regimens in the United States today typically contain a taxane drug, such as docetaxel or paclitaxel. Whether TAC now should be used generally in the adjuvant setting, she concluded, remains "a compelling question," that may be answered by a clinical trial being conducted by the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project, B-38.
Study Finds Breast Cancer Risk with NSAID Use
California researchers reported last week that daily, long-term use of ibuprofen is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, and that long-term daily use of aspirin is associated with an increased risk of estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor (ER/PR)-negative breast cancer. The ibuprofen/breast cancer link was especially strong for nonlocalized breast cancers. The authors stressed, however, that it's unclear if use of aspirin or ibuprofen is the cause of the cancer.
The study, partly funded by NCI, was published in the June 1 Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Dr. Sarah F. Marshall, of the University of Southern California, and colleagues looked at data on more than 114,000 women enrolled in the California Teachers Study, which included data from a self-administered questionnaire on the use of aspirin, ibuprofen, and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). During the 6-year course of the study, 2,391 cases of breast cancer were identified.
Daily use of aspirin for 5 years or more was associated with an 81-percent increased risk of ER/PR-negative breast cancer, while similar use of ibuprofen was associated with a 51-percent increase of breast cancer and a 92-percent increased risk of nonlocalized disease.
Researchers have studied NSAID use and breast cancer because it was thought that they might protect against breast cancer by inhibiting the COX-2 enzyme, which can stimulate cancer growth. Previous case-control and cohort studies had yielded inconsistent findings on NSAID use and breast cancer risk, which led the researchers to investigate whether NSAID use influences only certain types of breast cancer types, noted Dr. Deborah Winn, chief of NCI's Clinical and Genetic Epidemiology Research Branch. Findings of an increased risk of certain types of breast cancer associated with ibuprofen and aspirin, she added, suggest that the relationship between NSAID use and breast cancer is complex and may affect certain types of breast cancer more than others.
Mouse Has p53 Tumor Suppressor Gene with On/Off Switch
Scientists have created a laboratory mouse with a modified p53 tumor suppressor gene that can be switched on and off chemically, at will. The mouse is a tool for investigating the role of the p53 protein in blocking cancer at various stages of tumor development, according to a study published online in Nature Genetics on May 29.
The p53 gene and the pathway it regulates are often inactivated in human cancers. The new mouse model could be used to see what happens when the gene is reactivated in cells with developing or mature tumors. The mouse could also be used to explore how p53 proteins "sense" and suppress emerging tumors.
"We hope the community will find the mouse useful for studying where, when, how, and why the p53 protein acts to block cancer," says Dr. Gerard Evan, who led the study at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). The mouse will be available through NCI's Mouse Models of Human Cancers Consortium.
Mice that produce too much or too little p53 protein already exist. To make the new model, Dr. Maria Christophorou of UCSF and colleagues replaced the p53 gene with a version that was fused to a hormone receptor. The researchers could then switch p53 on and off in nearly all mouse tissues by either administering or withdrawing a particular hormone.
In preliminary experiments, the researchers found that inactivating p53 in tissues substantially prevented the sickness and pathology induced by acute radiation or chemotherapy. The restoration of p53 about 2 days later caused no ill effects, yet prevented radiation-induced cancers from emerging.
If the same is true in people, Dr. Evan notes, this might have implications for patients undergoing radiation and chemotherapy because inactivating p53 temporarily during therapy would help prevent harmful p53-mediated side effects.
Mouse Study Suggests Optimal Cells for Immunotherapy
A new study suggests that the use of younger, less-differentiated T cells may benefit cancer patients undergoing adoptive cell transfer (ACT). This experimental immunotherapy involves harvesting a patient's T cells, stimulating them to attack tumors, and then returning them to the body.
Although the work was done in mice, "several lines of evidence suggest that the mouse findings may apply to humans," notes Dr. Nicholas Restifo of NCI's Surgery Branch, who led the study. The findings appear in the June issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation (JCI).
Dr. Luca Gattinoni, the study's first author, found that cells stimulated for long periods outside of the body had used up their capacity to proliferate vigorously and thus were less able to successfully kill tumors. "Our goal is to enable young T cells to mature and acquire tumor-killing abilities after infusion into patients," Dr. Gattinoni explains.
ACT-based immunotherapies were developed for patients with advanced cancers that do not respond to conventional treatment. Dr. Steven Rosenberg, chief of NCI's Surgery Branch and a co-author of the study, led a recent clinical trial in which about 50 percent of melanoma patients treated with ACT achieved an "objective clinical response."
The team is now searching for ways to procure less differentiated and more "fit" cells for ACT-based immunotherapies. A JCI editorial suggests that a pragmatic strategy for ACT in humans is to keep the ex vivo stimulation phase "as short as possible."

Planned Giving Alert: IRA Charitable Rollover Gifts in Light of Fiscal Cliff Legislation
Part of the new last minute legislation that helped all of us to avoid going over the "fiscal cliff" includes a reinstatement of the popular IRA Charitable Rollover Gift, retroactive to 2012 and through 2013, within certain limitations. This is good news for individuals looking to donate to the Parkinson's Disease Foundation (PDF) in this way.
Just like before, limitations are:
- You must be at least 70 ½ years old in the year that the gift is credited toward.
- The maximum charitable gift for each year is $100,000 per person.
- The gift must come to the Parkinson's Disease Foundation directly from your IRA.
But here's something special:
You can still make a gift of up to $100,000 for 2012 directly from your IRA to PDF without negative tax consequence – BUT – if you want your gift to count in 2012 and not result in negative tax consequences, you must make sure the gift to us is completed by your IRA administrator no later than Thursday, January 31, 2013.
Additionally, if you received your 2012 IRA distribution during the month of December 2012, you can still use any part of it, up to $100,000, as a charitable gift to PDF, and it will count as your IRA charitable gift for the 2012 year. Of course IRA gifts made this year can still be applied against your yearly required minimum distribution for 2013.
A Bequest is an opportunity for a donor to create a legacy of donating gifts to charitable causes.
Charitable Remainder Trust
A Charitable Remainder Trust is an opportunity for donors to make a significant future gift to a charity such as PDF.
Charitable Lead Trust
A Charitable Lead Trusts is an opportunity for donors to make a significant contribution in the present.
Charitable Gift Annuity
A Charitable Gift Annuity is an opportunity for donors to make a significant contribution in the present and in the future.

Most government mandates do not match the intended goal, so this is nothing new. Why? Because the government suffers from tunnel vision. Government only sees advantages, and very seldom notices collateral damage all along the way. They certainly didn't figure ethanol would drive food prices so high, did they? And if they did suspect a glitch, nobody spoke up.
In a race to 'be green' (which is trendy at this point), officials ignore anything that might shed disturbing light upon the idea. If some cars mess up the desired average (mileage, emissions, etc. ), simply remove their statistics from the input. Al Gore and his flock completely ignored the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age in order to make claims about dire global warming. It's all about convenience to the goal.
If the 13 years of the 'ethanol experiment' has no net gain, nor expects one, why do we continue? Maybe the EPA and all those relying on ethanol to be the cash cow cannot afford to let it go. It wouldn't be a stretch to believe some of our representatives have skin in the game, with their insider trading advantages in play. And government, being an expert at getting nothing done, can claim it was all in the name of 'the greater good'. Well, at least someone's 'good' is nurtured!

I'm Pam Newman.
I am awesome every day & you are too.
Ask me!
Follow my butt on Twitter!
I'm a writer of aricles, poems & songs. Here's some cool stuff I wrote.
My friend, Marianna gave me a Pizza Hut gift card for my birthday/new year's/because she's awesome.
We have never met face-to-face but she is my internet BFF. I mean, the woman knows me well enough to give me snacks over anything else.
So this iBFF relationship created some super good vibes, purely over the phone and via the interwebs.
Then I ordered the pizza on the internet, lol. It should be here in a half hour or so.
The internet is fucking amazing.
In a Google Chat conversation I had with my IBFF (Internet Best Friend Forever) and fellow interweb writer, Marianna, we discussed giving ourselves life makeovers. As of right now, Marianna and I are both within a forty day range of our next birthdays. Holler if you would like to give us presents of beer, baked goods or baked goods. Anyway, I think the annual return of the sun to the place it was at a person's birth is a great time to initiate change, and reestablish focuses. Our specific desire for a change is also partially due to the present economic climate's abusive relationship with our bank accounts.

Check out this bitchin' article I wrote about being the person you wanna be.
Writing In Bed: DAUGHTERS OF THE NEW RECESSION
Yesterday after bonding over nachos and agreeing that we both miss the good ol' days, I dubbed Marianna my IBF.
This article is really awesome, and hits how I feel about a lot of things right on the nose, in regards to money and being a young woman with dreams and passion to create.
It's downright nasty how incredibly fucked the economy is (I mean, look at the OJ shelf at the supermarket. Shit costs more than petrol!) and creating the future we really want for ourselves.
Marianna was also cool enough to include me in this article. This is some fantastic writing to absorb on a beautiful Autumn morning.
My gurl Marianna (aka WritingInBed on Tumblr) wrote an EXCELLENT op/ed piece on Hello Giggles which I found to be a delightful read. It's about the stories we create in our minds in regards to how others (or life in general) reacts to us.
Here's an excerpt:
When you become aware of the stories you create, you can empower yourself by remembering that you are in charge of them. When you hear a comment or opinion that you feel applies to you, I can assure you that it's a mistake to assume someone is trying to make a jab at you. Unless they are telling you directly that you are the one being discussed, never ever create a story in your mind that you're the person in question.

brevoxyl is just a BP treatment, the packet should say what percentage. Google suggests it was 4%, so if it was irritating just go down a bit, you can ask for BP in any local chemist. Dan suggests 2.5% and you could order his, or just ask in store and see what brands your country has to offer.

Review: The Last of Us paints a brutally honest picture of an apocalyptic world
The Last of Us is not a "feel good" game by any means. Rather, it's a brutally honest take on a humanity's survival in a post-apocalyptic world. While the use of zombies, or in this case zombie-like infected, is nothing really new -- zombies being one of the most milked ideas in video games, movies, and television -- The Last of Us is about more than just survival.

Next: Filename completion, Previous: Filename Syntax, Up: Usage
Additionally to the syntax described in the previous chapter, it is
possible to use a URL-like syntax for tramp. This can be
switched on by customizing the variable
tramp-syntax. Please
note that this feature is experimental for the time being.
The variable
tramp-syntax must be set before requiring tramp:
(setq tramp-syntax 'url) (require 'tramp)
Then, a tramp filename would look like this: /method://user@machine:port/path/to.file. /method:// is mandatory, all other parts are optional. :port is useful for methods only who support this.
The last example from the previous section would look like this: /ssh://daniel@melancholia/.emacs.
For the time being,
tramp-syntax can have the following values:
ftp—That is the default syntax
url—URL-like syntax

Piscataway, N.J. (Nov. 20, 2012) - A group of seven Rutgers University student-athletes and staff packed a van filled with food, water and clothing donated by members of the Rutgers Athletic family and returned to Union Beach, N.J., on Monday, Nov. 19 to assist the needs of the beach community.
"I couldn't believe the devastation that I saw in Union Beach," commented senior men's soccer goalkeeper Kevin McMullen. "It didn't really occur to me how much hardship people from the shore are still experiencing until we all saw it for ourselves. Everyone was shocked and felt terrible for all the families that suffered.
"I was very humbled by the whole experience," said McMullen. "Although I felt very proud for doing my small part in the relief efforts, I realize now that they need so much more help and there's plenty more to do, even though it may feel as though everything is back to normal away from it all.
"One thing that really hit home was a sign that read 'put down the camera and help!' in front of a house that was completely destroyed," continued McMullen. "We all realized we were taking pictures at this point and just felt awful despite us trying to help as much as possible. I urge anyone and everyone to go and help out with the relief effort because these families really need a lot more help than most of us think. This was definitely one of the most rewarding experiences of my life, but I still feel like I need to do more knowing how much there is to do."
If you would like to donate supplies such as food, water, clothing, children toys/books and cleaning supplies to the communities affected by Hurricane Sandy, please contact Shawn Tucker at email@example.com .

The thyroid gland needs iodine to produce thyroid hormones. The follicular cells of the thyroid have channels or pores to actively absorb iodine for making thyroid hormone. Radioactive iodine takes advantage of the fact that thyroid cells and thyroid cancer cells absorb iodine; therefore, it has been used to diagnose or treat various thyroid disorders.
Iodine is made into two radioactive isotopes, I-123 and I-131, that are commonly used in patients with thyroid disease. A radioactive isotope is a substance that gives off radiation. RAI is given by mouth, in pill or liquid form. RAI is then absorbed by the thyroid cells and can be used to diagnose or treat thyroid problems.
I-123 is most frequently used to take pictures of the thyroid gland. The dose of I-123 is small, and because of its short half-life (about 12 hours), there are fewer precautions that need to be taken. The disadvantage is that the small dose is not as sensitive at detecting thyroid tissue compared to the larger dose of I-131 that is used for treatment.
I-131 is commonly used to treat thyroid disorders, such as hyperthyroidism, through RAI ablation (medically destroying the thyroid gland without surgery). In addition, large doses of I-131 are used to destroy thyroid cancer cells, which are killed after absorbing the dose of radioactive iodine
No matter how expert the thyroid surgeon is, the majority of time there is a small amount of thyroid tissue that remains after thyroidectomy (removal of thyroid gland). For patients with a diagnosis of thyroid cancer, we use RAI to destroy remaining thyroid cells after surgery, a treatment called remnant ablation.
The goal of RAI treatment is to kill any remaining thyroid cells. This is important for several reasons:
The majority of patients will receive RAI remnant ablation; however, we strive to give the lowest dose possible and to identify patients who do not have evidence of remaining disease and thus would not benefit from receiving the RAI dose.
For patients who need RAI treatment, we only give additional doses of RAI after we determine that the thyroid cancer is growing (indicated by an increase in Tg levels) and if the remaining cancer cannot be surgically removed. There are a number of different radiologic studies and nuclear medicine studies that can be used to find remaining thyroid cancer. These techniques will be discussed with you and your child if and/or when necessary.
Prior to receiving RAI for treatment of thyroid cancer, patients must be placed on a low-iodine diet and their TSH level must be increased:
Note: All female patients of child-bearing age must have a pregnancy test before they are given a treatment dose of RAI. RAI, whether I-123 or I-131, should never be used in a patient who is pregnant or nursing.
Learn about our commitment to thyroid disease research and finding new treatments.

WASHINGTON D.C. (WTAQ) - All five Wisconsin Republicans voted yes, and all three Democrats voted no when the House approved a new five-year package of federal farm programs Thursday.
Majority Republicans removed food stamps from the farm package on a near-party line vote of 216-208.
It raised fears by Democrats that the GOP would push for bigger cuts in food aid than the 3 percent reduction in the previous Farm Bill that was defeated in the House a month ago.
Indiana Republican Marlin Stutzman said a separate food stamp bill would, "give taxpayers an honest look at how Washington spends our money."
Massachusetts Democrat Jim McGovern said some Republicans believe this is their chance to end the food stamp program as we know it and, "The question is whether they will succeed or not."
Democrats are against any cuts in food stamps. Senate Democrats have indicated they will not consider a split in farm and food aid measures.
The White House has threatened to veto what the House approved.
