Sioux Falls, SD (KWSN)— The Sioux Falls Stampede home woes continued Saturday night as they dropped a 2-1 heartbreaker to the Des Moines Buccaneers in front of large crowd of 4,553 at the Sioux Falls Arena. The loss kept the Herd winless in home in their last six games (0-5-1) and dropped them to 21-12-3 on the season and three points behind Sioux City for third place in the West. Tony Calderone tallied the only goal while Art Brey stopped 22 shots, but took the loss in goal.
After a back-and-forth start to the game, the Bucs broke through at 16:29 of the first period when Oskar Norlov tallied his first goal of the season. The Bucs broke into the Stampede zone on a 3-on-2 and cashed in when Norlov one-timed a pass in the left circle just underneath the crossbar to give Des Moines a 1-0 edge. Sioux Falls outshot the Bucs 10-9 in the first.
Norlov struck again in the second period when he took a pass from Ryan Galt inside the left circle and wristed a shot through traffic that floated under the left arm of Stampede netminder Art Brey and gave the Bucs a 2-0 edge. The Herd posted 14 shots in the period, but nothing would go past the Buccaneers netminder, Ryan Ruck.
The Herd finally broke through 4:46 into the third period when Tony Calderone tallied his 11th goal of the season. Keith Burchett sent a pass inside the left circle to Calderone who wristed a shot past the stick side of Ruck and brought all 4,553 faithful to their feet as it brought the Herd within in a goal. It also marked the Stampede's first goal in over five periods dating back to the night before in which they were blanked by Sioux City.
The Stampede responded to the goal, putting up 12 total shots in the period, but the puck would not bounce the Herd's way. Sioux Falls pulled Brey in the final minute and had a flurry in front of the Bucs net, but the puck bounced wide on each attempt and a last scramble of shots were blocked by the Des Moines defense to preserve the victory.
Sioux Falls finished the night 0-for-3 on the power play while going 3-for-3 on the penalty kill and outshot the Bucs 36-24 on the night.
The Herd will look to get back into the win column this weekend when they travel to Kearney, Neb. to take on the Tri-City Storm, Friday and Saturday night. Game time on Friday is 7:30 and fans can listen live on KELO News Talk 1320-AM, 107.9-FM and online at www.kelo.com starting at 7 PM. The Herd return home on January 31st for Thomas Vanek Night. The first 500 fans through the doors will receive a FREE Thomas Vanek bobblehead from his days in Sioux Falls. Tickets are available at the Sioux Falls Arena Box Office or any Ticketmaster location.

text: This book was amazing!!!! It's a little hard to follow because it's from the perspective of a kid who has a mental disorder, but it if you can understand it, you'll love it!!! When the boy runs away from home, he learns how the world sees people like him, and encouters many hardships on the way to where he's going. I think the best part of this book is how he perservers through all of the bad stuff and the crazyness so he can attempt to set his world back to as normal as it can ever be. Also, there is A LOT of cussing, but if you can get past that it really is amazing.

Baseball's "steroid era" continues, despite Major League Baseball's best efforts to bury it in the past.
Now comes word that one of the greatest pitchers of all time, Roger Clemens, has been indicted by a federal grand jury (that just sounds impressive, doesn't it?) on charges that he lied before congress when he told them back in 2008 that he had never used steroids. Oops. Sounds like someone doesn't believe him, and that same someone are the folks who take down dictators in foreign countries. Or put you in jail for missing a decimal point on your 1040.
The video below from Clemen's testimony from February 13, 2008 reminds all of us about the beginning of the end of The Rocket's reputation.
A federal grand jury in Washington indicted former baseball pitching ace Roger Clemens on Thursday for lying to Congress, in a legal deposition and in congressional testimony when he repeatedly denied under oath that he ever used anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs.
According to the indictment, which includes one count of obstruction of Congress, two counts of perjury, and three counts of making false statements, the seven-time Cy Young Award winner "well knew" that he was trying to hide the truth from a House oversight committee in 2008 when he said, "Let me be clear. I have never taken steroids or HGH" – which is human growth hormone, another banned drug.
If convicted, the onetime pitching star for the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, New York Yankees, and Houston Astros faces up to 30 years in prison and a $1.5 million fine.

CHESAPEAKE - A woman fell into a hole at a construction site in South Norfolk.
It happened around 5:00 p.m. in the 1300 block of Stewart Street.
The hole was six or seven feet deep and she was still in it when units arrived, said Capt. Scott Saunders with the Chesapeake Fire Dept.
The woman, in her 40s, was put on a back board and taken to the hospital for treatment.
An investigation into the incident continues.

Atlantis In his 1882 book Atlantis, the Antediluvian World, onetime lieutenant governor of Minnesota, U.S. congressman, and senator Ignatius Donnelly (1831-1901) revived interest in a fabulous "lost continent" first described by Plato (circa 427-347 B.C.) as having existed in the Atlantic Ocean area "beyond the Pillars of Hercules" (the Strait of Gibraltar) over ten thousand years ago. The reference is found in both of Plato's dialogues, Timaeus and Critias. The entire continent, about as large as Europe, along with its highly developed civilization, was destroyed in a night and a day by an explosion and resulting tidal wave, said Plato.
The story, which Plato said originated in Egypt, just may be based on an actual cataclysm such as the one suggested by evidence discovered at the island of Santorini, north of Crete. It appears that about 1500 B.C. there was a volcanic explosion that should have decimated the area, and though that event does not satisfy the geographical location, copying errors might account for the differences. No evidence exists for a mid-Atlantic continent, and in fact we now know much more about the actual topography of the ocean bottoms, and Atlantis is simply not there.
It is interesting to note that Donnelly was also the genius who developed the notion that by examining Shakespeare carefully for a secret cipher, he had proven that someone else——Sir Francis Bacon——wrote the bard's work. It is a favorite crackpot idea still pursued by dilettantes who have tired of other fashionable conspiracy schemes.

Lawyer: Anna Nicole's Ex a Victim, Not a Felon
People: The Florida attorney who represented Howard K. Stern two years ago in the tug-of-war over the remains of Anna Nicole Smith says he's a victim, not a felon.
"The television, tabloid and Internet trial of Mr. Stern in the court of public opinion has been based on sensational lies, speculation, rumor and gossip," Krista Barth claims in a statement to Entertainment Tonight. "Unfortunately, it appears that criminal charges have now been brought by the state of California based on this same type of misinformation."
California Attorney General Jerry Brown told a news conference Friday that Stern was the "enabler" in a conspiracy to feed Smith's drug addiction. Stern, 40, and two doctors were charged Thursday with felonies for allegedly furnishing illegally obtained prescription drugs to the Playboy model prior to her overdose death.
Read more hot stories Moms Are Talking About.
Anna Nicole started to abuse alcohol and drugs when she was a teenager.She was in rehab center after a drug overdose in 1995.She started to abuse painkillers and sedatives after breast operations.That was before she met Howard in 1997.
Anna Nicole was sexually abused in childhood.Virgie Arthur's ex husbands sexually abused her.Her mother Virgie didn't do anything to protect her.That's why she didn't have any contact with Virgie.Anna was tormented woman.She had a difficult childhood, sex abuse, death of the son.She abused sedatives in order to ease the anguish she felt.Anna was a middle aged woman who couldn't find her place in the world she lived.She was lost soul.Nobody could have helped such person.
anna knew what she was doing on her own,she took teh drugs long before howard was in the picture.She took them while preg with dannilynn,how awful.Howard was there for her but for him to say"stop" anna was her own person who abused the drugs on her own,i blame the two drs not howard.
Anna Nicole was out of her mind and everyone knew it. I adored Anna but the truth is that for years she had been struggling with her addiction and I'm sorry to say Howard kept everyone away that might have been able to help her. Truth be told she had no desire o have anyone In her life tha was not going to help her get drugs. Why do you think she ran from Larry for when she knew he wasn't going to keep her secret.

Let the Wild Out by Madelyn Porter
Rachel Dunne thinks she's safe from the politics of her people by keeping a low profile in America. When she comes face to face with one of the clan chiefs in search of a mate, she's stunned yet incredibly turned on. There is a catch—one queen to two opposing clan chiefs. It's hard enough fighting off the advances of one sizzling hot piece of alpha man-flesh, can she possibly resist two?
Must be 18 years and older to read. If not, please leave the site.
Everyone should have at least two lovers.
That's what Rachel Dunne's crazy aunt used to tell her anyway. Her mother would have rolled over in her grave if she'd known her father's sister had been given custody. After her parents died, Aunt Elvie was the only family member who could take her in. Rachel spent her teenage years under the care of a free lovin', spirit séance havin', illegal herb growin', occasionally under arrest, Auntie Elvie. Luckily the sheriff was one of Elvie's pot customer slash on-and-off-again lovers, and Elvie never stayed behind bars for too long.
It wasn't an ideal childhood. But what Elvie lacked in modern morals and conventions she more than made up with love and patience. As for an Uncle Elvie, there wasn't one—there were several. Elvie rotated her lovers like most people changed toothbrushes, and she always kept at least two of them around at a time. Though, for their kind, such things were not unusual.
Oh, Aunt Elvie also happened to be a bird shifter. Rachel always thought it accounted for her flighty behavior and great appetite for life. Though, how a bird shifter could get arrested in the middle of a forest was beyond her. Rachel suspected her aunt liked being put in cuffs.
For some reason, Aunt Elvie and her childhood had been on her mind a lot lately.
"What kind are you?"
Rachel pretended not to hear the man who spoke, keeping her attention on the ebook reader she held. She had seen him following her as she left the bookstore where guest authors, Mandy M. Roth and Michelle M. Pillow, had joint book readings. She'd felt his presence as she walked the streets and smelled him as he came into the coffee shop. She didn't need to look at him to know he had dark hair and a rock-solid body. That much she'd seen from the reflection in the bookstore window. But experience taught her to stay away from other shifters. They had a wildness about them, an animalistic quality and a freedom Rachel fought hard to control in herself.
"What kind are you?" The unmistakable brogue of his Gaelic accent seemed out of place in the small Colorado town. That might account for his forward behavior. The shifters she'd met from overseas tended to have less puritanical ways. In America, unless on a preserve, shifters tended to mind their own business.
Rachel glanced at the hand he pressed flat against the table. There was no point in denying his claim. She could smell the shifter on him, as he could on her. However, his fragrance was potent and raw. He'd changed recently and, if the prickling sense of danger curling through her was any indication, he was dangerous. No wild bird here. Without looking up, she said, "I heard you the first two times, but my parents told me to never talk to strangers. Just keep it moving, buddy. I'm not in the life and I'm not looking for friends."
The man turned his hand over so she could see his palm. An ancient, circular design had been burned into the flesh with a branding iron. It looked old, probably given to him in childhood in an ancient ritual. She stiffened, not needing further introduction. Rachel didn't move for a long moment. She knew that mark. Everyone with shifter blood knew that mark. She'd never expected to see it in her lifetime, had hoped not. As far as she'd known, the marked ones were all living overseas, and she preferred it that way. Slowly lifting the back of her hand to her head in a subtle gesture of respect Aunt Elvie had taught her, she said, "My chief."
"For someone not in the life, you know who I am." He pulled his fingers into a fist. "Now I asked you a question. What kind are you?"
"Trout," Rachel lied, finally looking up at him. "My kind is a trout. I'm diluted blood."
She wasn't sure it was wise to lie to her clan chief, but if he was asking about her kind, then being a tame creature of the river wasn't useful to anyone. It had been a long time since she shifted, so her smell wouldn't be potent at all. The lie would be believable. Hopefully he'd leave her alone now. Rachel fought the nervousness in her stomach. If he caught her lying to him she wasn't sure what he'd do. The stories from the old country were brutal, practically medieval.
He slid into the chair across from her. "Trout?"
"Yes, my chief. A fish. When I change I swim in streams and try not to get hooked by fishermen while avoiding other spawning creatures. You can see why I'm not interested in the life." Rachel made a move to stand, refusing to look into his eyes in case he sensed her fear. "If you would excuse me, I have to get to—"
"Wait." He reached for her hand. The warmth of his touch took her by surprise.
"Yes?" Was it just her imagination, or could she feel the scar on his palm? Her attention focused on it, on him. Awareness shot through her.
"Who are your family? Which clan?"
"My family is gone. My aunt, Elvie Dunne, raised me. She passed two years back. My father, her brother, belonged to yours, the Duncanis clan. I don't talk to any others. Any other questions you have are better directed at someone else. I hear there are shifters living in Colorado Springs. Perhaps you should try there." Rachel withdrew her hand and he let her go. "Excuse me, Chief, but I can't lose my job."
"No reason to be so formal. Call me Douglas."
She nodded, not saying his name or meeting his eyes. Grabbing her ebook reader, she held it a little too tightly.
As she walked away, she detected his whisper, "I'll be seeing you, little trout."
Rachel really hoped not.

Ikea Landing Strip Help
We stopped by Ikea over the weekend, and in additional to seeing their amazing summer collection that Jonathan talked about, we spotted quite a selection of items to help with your landing strip.
Check out Ikea's whole selection of hooks on their website.

You missed including Kubbe - we just installed one of these at about 4' high, right over the shoe rack. Its a row of 3 small cubbies with a door on each... oak veneer...perfect for our mitts and front door stuff and it matches the shoe rack. Kubbe... cute name.
I wish I had a space to hang stuff when you walk in, but my landing strip is basically right in my kitchen, there's just a wall I have to utilize. do you think the Storage Shelf with Doors from CB2 http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=118&f=3332&viewall=1 would work? I can't quite tell if something without legs would work... I need a real shallow shelf/console solution - less than 12"...
Laure - I love you! I am in Santa Barbara and a trip to Ikea is a major commitment (especially with my small car!) and I am Curing and need some landing strip help. This will help me narrow down my choices BEFORE I step inside the store. Now that my son is 11 - they won't let him in the play area so trying to shop with a cranky boy is insanity-inducing. Thanks!
i love it melanie. what a cool product!
You'd think that a shelf made of rods, like some of the above, might not work for a landing strip, but my wife and I use a series of ceramic dishes on a wire shelf, and it works very well, and prevents spill-over.
i really want a good landing strip although space is tight, the front door really just opens up into the living room in our apartment.
What we need is a really good shoe rack for this area. right now we have a white wire monster that looks horrible. i can't seem to find any good shoe racks out there that will still hold a good amount of shoes and look good (without costing a fortune like some $200 ones i found online).
Eventually i think i'm going to try and convert a bookcase into one if i can find the right case, put some doors on it etc, hide the shoes...
I use Ikea's Babord shoe rack. we use 2 stacked and they work really well. You can even permanently attach them to eachother for stability. Each rack holds about 8 pairs of shoes.
if i had a dollar everytime AT said landing strip...
not sure if this has been posted but i found this great shelf from urban outfitters that will be perfect for a landing strip
http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp;jsessionid=F51599664B436DEFB01968E373A63583.app13-node1?itemdescription=true&itemCount=60&id=12982740&parentid=A_FURN_WALL&sortProperties= product.marketingPriority,-product.startDate&navCount=70&navAction=poppushpush&color=
...just be careful:
everything you 'drop' there becomes a potential semi-permanent part of the artscape in the room.

What sin could a man commit in a single lifetime to bring this upon himself?The Amazing Colossal Man is a giant monster movie made in 1957, directed and produced by Bert I Gordon and released by American International Pictures as a double feature with Cat Girl; it's also a Trope Codifier for "Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever".Lieutenant Colonel Glenn Manning, Korean War veteran, is one of the lucky soldiers sitting in the trenches waiting to witness the test of a new nuclear weapon, a "plutonium bomb". The bomb doesn't go off when it's triggered, and Glenn gets caught in the blast when he races to rescue the pilot of a plane that crashes in the test area. It seems to be enough of a miracle for him to be found alive with severe third degree burns, but... well, this is how The Incredible Hulk got started.Sure enough, his burns are miraculously healed the next day; and soon after that Glenn's fiancee learns he's been spirited away from his original hospital to an abandoned medical facility in the desert. Traveling there, she does eventually learn that, exposure to the bomb has caused Glenn's body to grow out of control and he's become a giant. And, he's continuing to grow at an alarming rate. Even worse, since his heart's a single cell, it's not keeping up with the rest of him, causing fainting spells, chest pain, the risk of eventual death... oh, and mental trauma on top of the obvious problems of being fifty feet tall.Eventually, Glenn goes insane, kills one of the doctors trying to cure his growth, kidnaps his fiancee, and rampages through Las Vegas before being taken down by the Army.The film spent quite a bit of time justifying tropes like I Love Nuclear Power audiences now take for granted. It also went into detail about Glenn's growing angst and insanity caused by his condition.A sequel, War of the Colossal Beast, was released by AIP in 1958 with Attack Of The Puppet People. In this installment, Glenn is found alive in Mexico after the events of the first film, scarred, mindless, and hunting bread trucks to survive; his ever-devoted

Wonder Woman is a comprehensive look at the first and most important female super hero of DC Comics, from the Golden Age to the present day. Wonder Woman is the most popular female super hero of all time and a cultural icon. During her existence, she has served in the army, renounced her powers at the height of the feminist movement, and helped launch Gloria Steinem's Ms. magazine. She has been—and continues to be—a trailblazing role model to girls and women and an integral part of the cultural zeitgeist. Loosely chronological, Wonder Woman explores idiosyncratic creator William Moulton Marston's interest in ideas of a "new woman" for the twentieth century; costume and character story changes over the decades; the influence on all other female comic book characters since her inception; and how Wonder Woman is still powerful and relevant in today's comic book renaissance. The book contains more than 250 Wonder Woman illustrations, including covers, interior comic art, and sketch treatments, beginning with her inception in the early 1940s to present-day treatments of the character. Celebrated artists include Alex Ross, Jim Lee, George Perez, and Brian Bolland, to name only a few. The book will also feature rare covers and pin-up posters created for past special-edition comic books. Wonder Woman is certain to appeal to fanboys and fangirls, collectors, and newcomers to the comic book genre alike.
This hardcover book measures 9 inches in width by 12 inches in height. Published April 2010.

How to Appologize For Downtime
This my dear readers is how you issue an apology.
We are committed to making myBalsamiq known for its uptime, but clearly we have a long way to go. We are learning, and I feel very sorry that our early adopters have to pay for our inexperience. :(
They go on to offer an extremely generous credit for the downtime as well. However, to me that is secondary. All I think users really want to hear is that you are honestly sorry and that you will make your best effort to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Shopping for a new duty shoe? Look no further than Thorogood's Classic Leather Black Oxford Uniform shoe that has tons of great features that paramedics, security guards, and police officers will all love!
Featuring a high quality full grain leather upper, these tactical uniform shoes are extremely durable and easy to clean. Thorogood used the Goodyear Welt construction method to create these black uniform shoes. The Goodyear Welt is a method of attaching the sole of a shoe to the upper. The upper is drawn over the last and held temporarily whilst a strip of leather (the welt) is stitched to the upper and inner sole. The sole is hand-stitched through the Welt to complete the process. This construction allows multiple sole replacements, extending the life of the footwear.
The comfort weave lining featured in these tactical shoes will wick away excess moisture and keep your feet dry and warm. Spending all day on your feet takes a toll, these duty shoes feature a pillow top memory foam insole that responds to your weight and movement by contouring to your foot with every step. This insole also relieves pressure by spreading weight evenly over a large surface area which ultimately reduces pressure points.
To provide you with plenty of stability and durability, Thorogood added an engineered composite shank to these black uniform boots. Thorogood added a Vibram rubber outsole to these tactical uniform shoes to provide you with plenty of traction while you're on the job no matter where you're working. Don't hesitate to order a pair of these Thorogood Classic Leather Black Oxford uniform shoe and treat your feet to long lasting all day comfort while you're on the job!

Does the scientific establishment unwittingly suffer from paradigm bias? Does it assume incorrect axioms of existence?
In the light of Thomas Kuhn's "Paradigm Shift" theory, and inspired by the TED controversy of removing Rupert Sheldrake's talk, let us examine the current scientific establishment.
The scientific process is capable of historical meta-analysis to make sense of its own patterns and processes. As Kuhn points out, every generation of scientists tend to assume premises that are fundamentally false but define the paradigm in which they work, and all assumptions flow from those premises.
Two major examples to illustrate are the geocentric/religious paradigm overthrown by Copernicus, and the Newtonian absolute space-time paradigm overthrown by Einstein. Of course, we must look to the actual psyche's of the establishment itself in those contexts. Was Copernicus not considered a heretic? Did not pre-Einsteinian physicists literally just ASSUME absolute spacetime as an axiom when contemplating physics? They are only easily shown to be incorrect in 20/20 hindsight, although up to that point, all the textbooks of school and general consensus among very smart 'experts' propagated those fallacious foundations.
Scientists that are overly specialized, careerist, non-philosophical, and lacking in paradigm shattering intuition/creativity might be the 'gatekeepers' of today, propagating fallacious assumptions themselves, and dismissing all non-establishment positions as heretical.
Has science itself transcended all biases? Has it overcome all incorrect assumptions? Was Newtonian absolute spacetime the final barrier? If not, then we MUST give 'heretics' a shot, should we not? What if they are a paradigm shifter?
As a thought experiment- if we are to contemplate the hypothetical that there are indeed wrong assumptions, what might they be?
Could it be that matter emerges from mind, and not the other way around?
Can Cartesian dualism be solved?
Could it be that the paradigm of Empiricism is merely a subset of the superior Rationalism?
Was Leibniz right?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Mar 21 2013: There are a couple of significant assumptions that I can think of which I suspect may, at the finest levels of our inspection of reality, may distort our understanding.
For example, all of scientific enquiry is built on the assumption that the natural world provides reliable evidence. Yes, we can use the evidence we derive from the material world to do all kinds of interesting things, substantiate theories convincingly, etc, but this assumption remains within the foundations of all that materialistic science has built.
Secondly, we're very taken with logic and mathematics. The neat and flawless nature of statements like 1+1=2, or the old "All men are mortals.." seem incontrovertible. We can use abstract thinking to model all sorts of things very convincingly, but I worry that there is a tendency to unconsciously conflate these models with reality and to treat our logical rules as perfect analogies of the natural rules that give rise to reality as we know it. I suspect that our abstractions deviate from the reality, and that even an extremely small deviation may lead to distortion in our understanding when we try to apply our models at very high resolution.
Thirdly (and this is increasingly acknowledged), I think we need to recognise more that the same phenomenon can be understood and thought about in very different ways. I don't know how applicable Sheldrake's ideas are, for example, or how well they match up to reality, but if the case is that they could provide a model that is even slightly applicable, then it is interesting and worth thinking about. I think that the more approaches we have on understanding reality, the more angles we come at it from, the more easily we will be able to triangulate on the central truth towards which all efforts to understand reality are alligned.
Mar 22 2013: I would love to see Mr. Sheldrake stand in a room with James Randi and then attempt his mystical feats of telepathy and extra-sensory perception. I suspect that, just like the dozens of other charlatans who had the unfortunately mistaken believe that they could fool the "Amazing Randi" over the last few decades, he will meet a similarly embarrassing fate.
There is no telepathy. There is no extra-sensory perception.
Years ago scientists thought that elephants somehow communicated through telepathy, but since then found that subsonic sounds and their ability to "feel" sound through their feet are the true source of their "superpowers".
We used to think that pigeons were terribly smart and able to memorize landscapes or perhaps had a "magnetic" sensor. We now know that they too, have ultrasonic abilities.
We once thought that dogs could "sense" our diseases through some kind of magic. We now know that they simply smell various diseases and changes in our hormone levels.
We live in the now. We live in reality.
Philosophy is not science. The only thing they share are a quest for the truth, but they both quickly diverge into completely different paths. If you want to argue all the wonderful (read: colorful) additions that philosophy has brought to our lives vs. the contributions of science, I would suggest the following:
Not a single candle can be made to flicker with all the philosophy in all the world. And with 100 year old science, born from the brains of sexist, racist, and small-minded men I can turn on light bulbs in every home, every car, and every flash light.
I think it's plain that from the perspective of practicality, and perhaps even relevance, that this discussion appears to delve a little too far into metaphysical spirituality and "voodoo". It would perhaps be better served in creationist forums, rather than a place where science and rationality are supposedly being shared.

I think that's where all of that "magic" and mysticism came from in my reply. Perhaps I read too much into it? "My" Sheldrake worked on paranormal and psychic perception, unless you're referring to a different Sheldrake?
Tamra TempleApr 6 2013: While it is true that past research might not have led to results pleasing to Randi, the fact remains that the research done was well done, intricate, performed by physicists and other highly qualified scientists and they were looking at things like whether or not information is carried by photons than at things like 'how can we impress Randi?". The research h papers that so many are either unaware of or wish didn't exist do and foundational research matters. Those who have not examined it show themselves to be fools when making claims about what is and is not born out by science. I've touched on the existing research in a brief blog, complete with downloads so you can get an idea of the caliber of research being ignored... Check it out at
Apr 8 2013: Hi Tamra,
I did take a look at your website, but I can't find any evidence that supports your claims. Instead, you have copies of memos that *might* suggest meetings, etc.
There is, in fact, a large mountain of evidence that points to charlatanism on the subject of remote viewing, and even the "great Randi" has had experience in this particular subject -- including on live TV for all the world to see.
Every single time that double blind studies have been conducted, they were found to be statistically inconclusive. To date, not a single supposed study has yielded repeatable, positive results. This leads to the following conclusion:
"The scientific community rejects remote viewing due to the absence of an evidence base, the lack of a theory which would explain remote viewing, and the lack of experimental techniques which can provide reliably positive results. It is also considered a pseudoscience."
[taken from wikipedia, please read the article yourself for numerous citations]
The fact of the matter is, that science DID look at this numerous times. It was not rejected on the basis of dogma. It was rejected on the basis of scientific fact after careful observation and years of study (decades, in fact) by numerous private and government entities.
To characterize this nonsense in the context of my flickering candle analogy, I would say the following about remote viewing: "Never mind making a candle flicker. They never even saw the room it was in."

Integrating Recovery Supports in Recovery-Oriented Systems of Care
by Larry Davidson, Ph.D.
Last February, SAMHSA announced its new action plan,
Leading Change: A Plan for SAMHSA's Roles and Actions 2011–2014
, which identified eight strategic initiatives. Recovery Support, the strategic initiative most relevant to RTP, is described as "partnering with people in recovery from mental and substance use disorders and family members to guide the behavioral health system and promote individual-, program-, and system-level approaches that foster health and resilience; increase permanent housing, employment, education, and other necessary supports; and reduce discriminatory barriers." So, what are recovery supports? Why do we need recovery support services to foster health, resilience, and recovery? And what do these services have to do with recovery-oriented practice within the context of recovery-oriented systems of care?
What Are Recovery Supports?
Use of the terms "recovery supports" and "recovery support services" is a relatively recent development in the behavioral health field. Recovery support services refer to community-based supports that enable people to acquire various forms of
recovery capital
—the sum of social, emotional, informational, instrumental, and "affiliational" support a person can use to initiate and sustain recovery. The forms of recovery capital are diverse. Examples include a reawakening of hope; obtaining safe and stable housing; securing employment or returning to school; developing a sense of efficacy, personal agency, and self-confidence; connecting with a faith-based or spiritual community; obtaining child care and parenting assistance; securing transportation; increasing motivation for behavioral change; and securing a network of supportive peers and friends.
Despite the fact that the term "recovery support" is relatively new, some of these services have been around for a while. But such supports have traditionally been described either in terms of a specific intervention (e.g., supported employment, supported housing) or grouped together under different concepts, such as those of mutual aid organizations in the substance use field (including Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-step fellowships) or "peer-run" programs in the mental health field. In this sense, recovery support services have been available to people with substance use conditions for at least 80 years and to people with mental health conditions for at least 40 years. Why, then, would we introduce a new term for what some people might consider to be old practices and activities?
Why Do We Need Recovery Support Services to Foster Health, Resilience, and Recovery?
One reason for the new term is because much has changed in the behavioral health field since the 1930s, including the very use of the term "behavioral health." In many ways, mental health and substance use treatment were two entirely different fields with very little in common. Although 12-step groups may have cropped up throughout the country to promote the notion of "recovery," the substance use treatment field largely disregarded advances in the provision of community-based supports for housing, employment, and education. At the same time, the mental health field was developing these types of supports, but lacked any sense of the possibility of "recovery" for people with serious mental illnesses. It has taken recovery movements in both fields, led by people in recovery from either or both conditions, to change this picture in a dramatic and revolutionary way. These changes have made it possible for us to refer to an integrated field of behavioral health—a field that makes central, substantial use of recovery support services.
What has changed? In many ways, the behavioral health field is being turned on its head. In the substance use field, it was customary to believe people had to lose everything and "hit bottom" before they would be willing to accept their powerlessness over substance use and be "ready" for treatment. If they did not benefit from substance use treatment, the failure could be attributed to the person not yet being ready to change. In the mental health field, it was common to believe people had to develop "insight" into their condition, accept having a mental illness, and comply with treatments (primarily medications) to achieve clinical stability—the best they could hope for in the absence of any notion of recovery. Once they achieved clinical stability, they could be referred to rehabilitative interventions that would enable them to rebuild their lives. If someone dropped out of treatment, stopped taking medication, or failed to achieve clinical stability, such failures could be attributed to the illness or to the person's lack of insight, interest, or initiative. In spite of numerous interventions that have proven highly effective, many people with substance use and/or mental health conditions have not accessed specialty care. Of those who sought out this care, many have dropped out prematurely, and few have derived the optimal benefit.
The consumer movement in mental health and new recovery advocacy movement in substance use have argued persuasively for addressing these limitations in systems of care by reversing the customary logic (get treatment first, regain your life afterward) and adopting an approach that helps people have a life and offers treatment within that context. The role of recovery capital has been central to this reversal. If a person has little to no recovery capital (e.g., is homeless, unemployed, and alienated from family), he or she has few resources to draw from when assuming the hard work of recovery, and is thus unlikely to succeed. If a person has adequate recovery capital, he or she is likelier to recover independently or with formal help. Recovery supports are crucial for people who have lost (or never really had) the recovery capital needed to set about recovery in a fully effective and sustainable way.
Understanding the need for a solid foundation upon which to build a person's recovery was missing from the history of mental health and substance use treatment. This point can be made succinctly using key terms from SAMHSA's Strategic Plan: having a home, one's health, a sense of purpose, and sense of community produce an environment more conducive to recovery than homelessness, poverty, isolation, and unemployment. In addressing fundamental life issues that historically fell beyond the scope of their practice, both mental health and substance use treatment providers found interventions classified as recovery support services were effective bridges to treatment, potent augmentations to treatment, and valuable post-treatment resources that enabled people to maintain successes they had achieved in care. For people who need a home, a sense of purpose, a sense of community, or better health, it may take a combination of recovery support services
treatment to reduce substance use and mental health difficulties while increasing their resources, skills, confidence, and social support enough to enter into and sustain recovery.
This is where the two fields have begun to converge in the past decade. The introduction of recovery support services in the substance use field has served to bridge the longstanding gap between the recovery community and clinical care. Similarly, the mental health consumer movement has been moving over the last decade toward a partnership with professionals who provide clinical care. As both recovery movements have recognized the need for integration of clinical care and community-based recovery support services, the two fields have also moved closer to each other, coming together around the concept of recovery-oriented systems of care. If recovery-oriented systems of care assign a central role to recovery support services and require them to be integrated with clinical care, one final question remains:
What Do Recovery Support Services Have to Do With Recovery-Oriented Practice?
The simple answer to this question is that the provision of recovery support services represents one key form of recovery-oriented practice. Supports and services that promote employment, housing, education, socialization, parenting, and spirituality are all recovery oriented, as are various forms of peer support, peer recovery coaching and mentoring, and peer-run programs. Crisis respite programs, sober housing, affirmative businesses, outreach and engagement, telephone support, transportation, and recovery/wellness checkups are also forms of recovery support. Some of these supports have been utilized by people with substance use or mental health conditions for decades, but even those with firm, established evidence bases attesting to their effectiveness (e.g., supported housing and employment) have yet to be fully implemented in any U.S. system. Bringing these supports to scale throughout the country is a main focus of SAMHSA's Recovery Support Strategic Initiative.
With its main focus on transforming the major behavioral health professions, RTP is also concerned with recovery-oriented practices employed by psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, social workers, and rehabilitation practitioners. Although everything these practitioners do should ultimately support a person's recovery, not everything they do can be considered a "recovery support service" in the sense described above. So, how do recovery support services relate to the treatments, clinical interventions, and other services behavioral health care professionals provide? And what does it mean to say these services must be integrated with recovery support services within the context of recovery-oriented systems of care?
The Role of Recovery Capital
suggested one difference between recovery support services and other recovery-oriented practices (such as clinical care) is that recovery support services primarily aim to increase recovery capital, while treatments primarily aim to decrease distress and sources of distress (such as symptoms). Whereas it is a somewhat useful division of labor, this distinction glosses over complexities and subtleties that arise at the interface of recovery support services and recovery-oriented clinical practices. Although they are distinct concepts, recovery capital is not so easily separated from suffering in real life, as the examples of housing and employment suggest. Helping a person obtain safe and dignified housing or meaningful employment also diminishes his or her suffering, just as increasing a person's understanding of the impact of trauma on his or her life can translate to an increased sense of purpose and community. Recovery-oriented clinicians build on strengths and foster growth while working to alleviate suffering, just as recovery support service providers lessen suffering while assisting people to obtain a home and sense of community. In real-world practice, these distinctions are not nearly so clear cut. What, then, is the difference? Perhaps focusing on a specific example will help us see how the pieces come together.
One of the six criteria for supported employment as an evidence-based practice is that job coaching is closely aligned with clinical care. If the person's clinical care is provided in a nonintegrated fashion—disconnected from the job coaching function—then this constitutes poor fidelity to a key criterion of the practice, and is much less likely to be effective. But what happens when job coaching and clinical care are integrated? How can the two be integrated when they are not provided by the same practitioner? Although it might seem ideal for one person to carry out both functions, it is unlikely that a credentialed clinician would also serve as a job coach. Not only is this not a cost-effective arrangement, but there is presently very little in the training of behavioral health care professionals that prepares them to function as community-based rehabilitation practitioners. At the same time, occupational, recreational, and psychiatric rehabilitation practitioners are not trained to perform traditionally defined clinical interventions. In this sense, the division of labor described above seems to make some sense.
How, then, can job coaching and clinical care be brought together within the context of a recovery-oriented system of care? How does a job coach work in partnership with a clinician, or a job coach and clinician work together as part of an interdisciplinary team? What about the roles of a peer support specialist, psychiatrist, or nurse practitioner? A key component of integration between clinical services and recovery support services is that all interventions are derived from a person-centered recovery plan driven by the individual and his or her goals. Everything a provider does—whether a recovery-oriented clinician or recovery support service provider—should support a person's efforts to achieve his or her life goals. Within this context, peer staff (for example) help people know they can have and deserve to have such goals to begin with, and likewise can help people identify their goals. Job coaches enter the picture when one of the goals is employment. The peer support provider and/or job coach can help the person work on his or her self-esteem before taking the next step to secure employment. In short, recovery support services
people in pursuing their hopes, dreams, and aspirations.
Often times, making progress in recovery also requires interventions to remove obstacles or overcome barriers the person encounters along the way. For example, psychiatric medications can be extremely effective for some people to decrease or eliminate distracting voices that make it difficult to concentrate. For others, cognitive–behavioral psychotherapy may help reduce intrusive thoughts, manage triggers for relapse, and enable people to recuperate after a severe depression. Interventions that remove or minimize such barriers—although not always necessary—may be instrumental for some people to function in the job of their choice. In this way, they are important components of the recovery-oriented clinician's tool box.
Still, aligning interventions from different domains and different providers with a person-centered recovery plan alone is not adequate for ensuring integrated care. People and behavioral health conditions are far more complex and dynamic. What if the prescribed medications, for instance, not only decrease disruptive voices but also make the person feel so tired that he or she cannot get out of bed to go to work? What if the person is not interested in taking medication to decrease hallucinated voices because the voices are his or her major source of company? Although getting a job could offer that individual a new social network to eventually replace the voices, it would be difficult to do so while the voices were significantly distracting. These complexities may only be the tip of the recovery iceberg, suggesting the need for ongoing and close communication between the person, job coach, peer support provider, clinician, and psychiatrist or nurse practitioner.
In such cases, recovery support services that aim to enhance real-world functioning may be limited in effectiveness by unaddressed barriers that stem from a mental illness, an addiction, or another source. And clinical care that aims to decrease suffering, symptoms, and substance use may be limited in effectiveness by the person's unaddressed needs for recovery capital (in this case, social support and self-confidence). The need to address aspirations
barriers and functioning
illness means recovery-oriented practice must be a dynamic dance that often involves more than two partners. Ensuring the dance is recovery oriented and integrated requires all parties to dance to the same song, with the music and pace chosen by the person him or herself.

Restorative Vacations
Committing to a 9-to-5 shows dedication, and maintaining a daily work routine can lead to greater career and life satisfaction. But time away from the office is equally important, and vacations—however brief—are necessary to reduce work and family stress. One way to spend a vacation is to travel, which not only opens our eyes to new people, places, and experiences, but can boost self-esteem and alleviate depression. Leaving work behind may be difficult, but the benefits of a little rest and relaxation can last throughout the year.
Improve Your Mental Health
Leisure travel creates a sense of social identity and belonging—two contributors to social skills development. Children who travel are likelier to be well-adjusted teens and adults. They tend to be calmer, more outgoing, and more secure in unfamiliar settings than people who don't travel.
Avoid Burnout
Bringing work on vacation is a no-no. Besides taking time away from family or friends, it means you're still connected to the office—a surefire sign you aren't completely relaxed.
Boost Your Creativity
If your creative energy has been stifled at work, take some time to recharge mentally. A change of pace or environment may be enough to get the creative juices flowing again.

Washington D.C. (KELO AM) - The bipartisan budget agreement enacted late last year to avoid a government shutdown included a provision that would have slowed the rate of the annual Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) increase for certain military pensions.
"This is an issue that I know has been on the minds of many South Dakotans," said Kristi Noem, Representative, South Dakota. "I helped the House pass a repeal of that reduction for current and former members of the military."
"This means that if you entered the military before January 2014, there will be no changes to your benefit plan," said Noem. "We were also able to keep this provision budget neutral by making a small, one-year reduction to entitlement spending."Permalink: http://noem.house.gov/index.cfm/2014/2/an-update-on-military-pensions

Loyola University has issued an alert to students after a student was robbed at gunpoint Tuesday afternoon in an alley near its Rogers Park neighborhood campus.
At 5 p.m. Tuesday, a Loyola student was walking in the alley in the 6700 block of North Greenview Avenue, when he was approached by two men, an alert on the school's website from Loyola's Director of Campus Security Robert Fine said. One of the offenders displayed a handgun and took several items of value from the student, then both offenders immediately fled the scene.
The victim was not able to provide a detailed description of the offenders, the alert said. Loyola Campus Safety was working with Chicago police to investigate.
On Jan. 15, another Loyola student was also the victim of an armed robbery near the school's Rogers Park campus.
In that incident, about 9:30 p.m., a female Loyola student was walking in the area of North Shore Avenue and Lakewood Avenue when she was approached by two men, one displaying a silver handgun, who demanded her money and cell phone, an earlier alert said. The student complied and the two men fled the scene with her cell phone and money.
If anyone has information on either incident, they are asked to call Loyola Campus Safety at (773) 508-6039 or the Chicago Police Department at 911.

A federal judge has denied the request for an emergency injunction involving the Goose Creek High School football team's disqualification from the playoffs because proper papers were not served to all parties.
A 2 p.m. court hearing was held Wednesday afternoon after a lawsuit was filed requesting an emergency injunction that would allow the player to be reinstated for the Nov. 23 scheduled playoff game the Gators have been disqualified from. The lawsuit argued the player, 18-year-old Justice Roemello Rogers, should be allowed to play under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 due to a learning disability.
Judge Weston Houck said papers were not served to the SCHSL today, so the lawsuit could not be filed. Therefore, he would not hear the case.
Goose Creek was initially disqualified from the playoffs and ordered to have its record forfeited on November 13 after the school notified the SCHSL an ineligible player was on the team.
Reedy and Rogers would not comment while leaving the courthouse Wednesday afternoon.
Rogers' lawyer, Jason Moss of Moss & Associates in Columbia, says the student's case is still alive and he will continue to work on it.
The lawsuit states the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 exists to ensure that "no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such activity."
Moss said the SCHSL's ruling eliminated the participation of student athletes considered fifth-year seniors "regardless of disabilities."
Moss argued the league's policies have evolved in a manner "that disregards a practical, subjective view to student-athletes with disabilities." Furthermore, the lawsuit alleged the SCHSL "appeared to narrowly constrict high school eligibility rules with disregard to federally mandated rules created by Congress relating to student athletes with disabilities.
The past two weeks have been a rollercoaster ride for the Goose Creek Gators.
The disqualification was previously put on hold November 16 by a circuit judge, allowing the team to play in last Friday's playoff game and to once again argue their case for the player's eligibility in front of the SCHSL. The team defeated Bluffton 35-25.
On Monday, November 19, the SCHSL maintained their ruling that Rogers was ineligible, again disqualifying the Gators.
