Fort Campbell, KY – Exemplary leadership is a key aspect of military service, and one former Secretary of State Colin Powell learned while 2nd Brigade commander at Fort Campbell in 1976. He visited Fort Campbell Wednesday for the first time since retiring as a part of a tour promoting his newly-released book, "It Worked for Me: In Life and Leadership," co-written with Tony Koltz.
The book explores leadership through a series of parables from Powell's own life, drawing heavily from his military career and time as the 65th Secretary of State in George W. Bush's administration. The book chronicles experiences from his upbringing in Harlem to the now-famous Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction speech he delivered to the United Nations in 2003.
Jennifer Krog watches as Colin Powell signs a copy of his new book, "It Worked for Me: In Life and Leadership," at Fort Campbell's Post Exchange Wednesday afternoon. Powell, who once served as 2nd Brigade commander for the 101st Airborne Division in 1976, revisited the installation on the Kentucky-Tennessee state line as a part of his book tour.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The worse school of ever I guess if you have no values and coming from a hostile environment its the best school for your staff is very defensive, you cannot have a decent conversation with out they taking it to a next level, but then again most parent in that neighborhood don't hold a high school diploma therefore the staff tent to stereotypes classifying all parents as the same.
The scholars have the most precious teachers backing them, unfortunately, if you ask the parents their liking of the school you will hear mixed stories - more negative than positive. I travel past their new location on Rockaway and do not like how their parents clog up the sidewalk, but I do like how I can overhear their conversations. There are issues with the school bus, other transportation services, communications with the school, a few teachers with attitudes and the infamous Ms. Richie is no longer there. Also, I have researched the schools under the Uncommon Schools organization and sorry to see that Brownsville is not doing well, but the other schools under the organization are doing awesome. Hope things get better soon, I know I would not want my child there. When the children exit, you can see right away who the bad apples are. Again, hope it gets better soon.
Leadership Prep is an excellent school. The prinicipal Ms. Richie and her staff have a genuine love for the students and parents. ONE TEAM ONE FAMILY! I love the school newspaper and the curriculum prepared for the students. It is truly like getting a private education for free. My daughter AMAZES me with the things she learned, her reading and math abilities. She loves her teachers and I must say, Leadership Prep staff does listen to a parent's concern and will try to rectify a situation as soon as possible. The only down side is that the children do not get to go outside at all. Also the neighborhood is in Brownville, Brooklyn, which I consider to be a rather dangerous place to be, but that is the A+ of them not going outside, I guess. I love the staff!!! and there are always helpful and cheerful. GREAT SCHOOL!
I must say I love Leadership!!!! They are very dedicated to the students and their future. They set high expectations and my son and I strive to exceed them. The school is very orderly and organize. The smallest things won't slip threw the cracks. I am very happy with the education my son receives there. There is absolutely nothing I would change.
Ms Scodary Does a great Job. The children love to be in her class. She does her best everyday.

What was your personal reaction, as a career first responder, as you saw the I-35W incident unfold?
I come from the fire side, so I was used to handling a lot of really large emergencies. And I think for me, personally, it's the fact that all that training that you have just clicks in, as do relationships that you've developed. If you follow the rules, quite frankly, implement NIMS, put your incident action plan together, get everybody in positions where they can be successful—meaning just have people do things that they're trained and equipped in—and trust your plans, and trust the training you've done, it works very well. So I think the key is to be prepared, and the only way you can be prepared is through the tabletops and functional drills that you have prior to a large-scale emergency.
What is the biggest challenge in your office's mission?
Silo thinking, whereby, say, every fire department thinks it needs its own hazmat team or collapsed-structure team, or every police department thinks it needs its own bomb squad. We have to erase those geographic and jurisdictional lines and learn how to share our resources much better, train together, and have one common mission, rather than breaking it up into stovepipes.
How would you characterize your office's relationship with its federal partners? What, if anything, would you change?
Well, we had the bridge collapse in 2007, the Republican National Convention in 2008, and tornadoes and floods in 2010 and 2011. So we've been forced to work very closely together. Quite frankly, without the help from the state and the grants from the federal government, we would never have been in a position to handle these incidents the way we have. So I have no criticism at all. Every problem that we've confronted, we've been able to sit down and work out.
Has the region engaged the private sector in the emergency management mission? If so, how?
We've reached out in the last two years, and we've developed a relationship with what's called the Downtown Emergency Advisory Committee, which basically ties emergency management into all the downtown areas in Minneapolis. This is a local Minneapolis initiative and not a broader regional initiative at this time. We've done things like develop a manual that we work on with all of our businesses downtown. It covers everything from severe weather to radioactive materials. We've developed the manual so the businesses know how the city's going to work, and we've got check-off sheets for them when they have any of these types of issues.
In addition, we train together. And we now have private-sector representation in our training, and the president of the Minneapolis Downtown Council—which is a merchant and business group—sits in our emergency operations center during large events.
What are your office's major goals?
What I really want to do is make sure the city of Minneapolis is prepared for any type of event, and we're going to do that through training and through our emergency operations plan. We also want to work more closely with the metro area so we can identify what those needs are, and direct funding appropriately.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
On a back pass to the opposition's keeper I creep up, walking, waiting to pounce, waiting for him to take another touch then BAM, I sprint full pelt at him when he's furthest away from the ball given his touch. He panics, probably looking in to the red of my eyes seeing a madman, coming for the ball, MY ball. "Oh no, I hope I can clear this ball in time, otherwise my arse is grass" his face seems to say. He shapes to kick, to clear - I jump, turning my back to the ball, I feel the satisfying thud of a Uk regulation size 5 Mitre Monde V12 Match Football hit the smalls of my back. I land, satisfied that I've comprehensively pressed the goalkeeper in to making a mistake, they'll think twice before passing it back to him now. But wait… on landing, I've turned to see the trajectory of the ball. It's looping! It's looping right over the keeper! It's in! I've just scored the best goal of all time! I spring away to celebrate with teammates, who are all too shocked to celebrate with me. I make for the corner flag, albeit alone, to dance in front of the away contingent - a dog and his owner, and our 2 substitutes don't seem to recognise what salsa dancing is. But that doesn't matter, I had done it. It was I, Maxim.

SIZE="1" FACE="Arial">
|One of the biggest growth areas in contemporary sport is the ultra-
endurance, multi- discipline competitions, where athletes from different sporting
backgrounds test their mettle in a variety of sports. Conventional triathlon events
have been around for some time now, but the bulk of expansion is in the off-road
versions. Events such as the Xterra off-road triathlon and Discovery Channels Eco-Challenge
include disciplines as divergent as open water swimming, sea kayaking and camel riding
in addition to the mountain biking stages. Competing in these events is a big step
up from racing at your local mountain bike event. If you can't hold your own at open
water swimming, or run off-road for an hour or two, then the prospect can be quite
However, in this country there is a small network of off-road duathlon events which
provide the opportunity for you to serve your apprenticeship before you progress
on to the big events. An off-road duathlon is a three phase, dual sport event consisting
of a mountain bike race sandwiched between a couple of cross country runs. The courses
can be of varying length, but if you are competing for the first time, my advice
is to opt for the 'sprint' events which cover a shorter course. The typical distance
of a sprint event is 5km run, 20km bike, 5km run. Don't be intimidated by this prospect
as the majority of the competitors are athletes trying another sport. They are either
mountain bikers having a go at running, or runners having a go at mountain biking,
with only a minority being experts at both. Because of this the atmosphere is fun
and relaxed, with competitors from each discipline encouraging those from the other.
If you're reasonably fit on your bike then you should have no major problems completing
a duathlon. Unfortunately the only fitness crossover benefit from mountain biking
is your improved cardiovascular system. Despite using your leg muscles in each discipline
you are using them in a totally different way. When you are running you are supporting
your weight and working all of the time – there is no sitting down, coasting or changing
to an easier gear. From a physiological point the cycling only involves concentric
(shortening) contractions of the muscles whereas when running the muscles also contract
eccentrically. That is, your leg muscles lengthen under tension as they absorb the
impact of your body weight. For this reason, no matter how fit you are at mountain
biking, if you are unaccustomed to running you'll always feel it in your legs for
a couple of days after a run. Your main priority is not to injure yourself whilst
you are running. Remember it should be adding to and not detracting from your mountain
biking. The single most important thing you can do is buy yourself the best pair
of trainers you can afford. Go and visit your local specialist running shop, as opposed
to a high street sports shop, as they will give you expert advise and have a wider
range of stock. Some running shops even have a foot scan machine which will analyse
your gait and assess whether you are a pronator (rotate foot inwards), or supinator
(rotate foot outwards) whilst running. Getting the right pair of running shoes can
not be overstated. If you have got an inadequate pair of trainers you will feel it
each time your foot hits the ground, and at around 140 foot impacts per minute, that's
an awful lot of reminders. Another precaution is to run off-road during your training
because the surface is more forgiving than tarmac or concrete and has less of a jarring
effect on your joints.
You will make most of your improvements in duathlon if your work on your weak areas,
which in this case is your running. Any effort applied to improving your mountain
biking at this stage will not bring about as a good an improvement as the same effort
applied to your running. You will need a minimum of six to eight weeks to get your
running up to par for the event. If running or jogging has not played any significant
role in your fitness in past, then you should aim to spend about 10 percent of your
training on running. You may only be able to manage a 10 minute continuous run. This
is not a problem. Each week add about 5 percent to your running workouts until you
reach a sixty forty split in favour of mountain biking. After all you're a mountain
biker not a runner. Not only do you have to develop your running fitness, but you
must also become accustomed to making the transition from running to biking and then
back again. The best way to achieve this is to perform mock duathlons in your training.
First of all pick out a 5km running loop and a 20km cycling loop near your home.
Lay out all of your cycling gear next to your bike (with your helmet buckle and the
velcro straps on your shoes undone in order to speed up the transition) and set off
on your first run. Upon return quickly swap your shoes, put on your helmet and shades,
and set off on your cycle loop. Then it's back into your running shoes for your final
5km run. Initially this final transition will feel extremely weird, like your running
with your legs on back to front, or with flippers on your feet, or even both. No
matter how tired you are at this stage you will always manage a wry smile as you
try to regain control of your legs. But given time you'll begin to get accustomed
to it. Because this workout is extremely taxing on your body perform it only once
a week. For the first week use the initial run as a warm-up, go hard on the bike,
and then taper off during the final run. The next week go hard in the run, recover
on the bike and then go hard in the final run once more and so on. Every now and
again go 'all out' during all three phases so that you can get an overall time and
monitor your progress. You will also need to substitute a couple of your regular
mountain workouts with running sessions. Aim to include one long distance run which
is around 10km and an easy paced recovery run which should take approximately an
hour. Even though your heart and lungs may be able to perform this type of training,
remember that at this stage your muscles and joints are not up to the job. So, as
with any other form of training, start easy and build up gradually.
So far, off-road duathlons are not as prolific as the conventional road ones, and
may take some research on your behalf to find out when they are being held. Most
events are organised by a traditional triathlon club, so contact your local club
and see if they have got any off-road duathlons on their race calendar. Other sources
of information include the race calendar sections of magazines such as: 220, Triathlon,
Today's Runner, and your regular mountain bike magazines. If your search is fruitless,
then you should add the extra discipline of race organisation to your multi-sport
repertoire and organise your own event!

Let it be known that on April 21, 2011, I officially invented the word "Tumbro." For we are all the Tumbro.
I sat up, dazed, and gave Adrian a… hug. Now when I mean the "dot dot dot," I mean the "hug" wasn't actually that, it was something a little more affectionative. But hey, I'm trying to clean it up for the PG audience, capisce?
More whimsical verbiage from the middle school tale, Halloween Ghoul In School.
Nope. I'm done. I'm fucking done. I'm going to find my seventh grade self, cut off his hands, and shove them bone-first into his eyes. I'm going to point out how sick and wrong everything about this story is, and when he tells me he can't see, I'm going to smash his guitar over his head. Then I'm going to turn off his computer and throw it out of the window, and then throw him down on top of it, letting the shards of metal and glass impale him through his stomach.
And when his parents come through the front door and see the mess, and see me standing beside him with panic in my eyes, my lips will curl into a grin, and I'll say:
"You'll thank me later."
And then I will phase out of that time, and this universe, and BECOME A SPACE OCTOPUS AND LIVE FOREVER.
…said the toilet, as its covered swung up and revealed a black, gaping maw that seemed to have no end.
"Heeeeeere's Dookie!" said its owner, as he dropped his pants and turned. He bent his knees, relaxed his bowels, and squeezed.
The toilet screamed into the night, and was never quite the same.
A lovely Halloween story by William, age 5
I was relaxing on the outdoor balcony of the Barnes & Noble when the Apple Store (the one with the most professional genius ever) suddenly exploded with applause.
Thinking that there was some big Apple party happening downstairs, I grabbed my bag and ran across the street just as the cheers faded off.
I asked a Genius, "What happened? Did you guys sell your 1,000th iPod? Did someone get married? Did you decide to start selling the Apple II again?"
He said, "Nope. Some of our Genius staff just left, and we clapped them out."
Some of their Genius staff just left, and they clapped them out.
I don't know whether that's a symbol of a wonderful place of employment, or a sign that Apple is slowly taking over humanity with some wacky e-Communist bullshit.
("Wacky e-Communist bullshit" is a thing now.)
This karaoke place that a bunch of us wonderful people went to tonight was a few unfortunate strippers away from being The Sketchiest Place On Earth™.
Never mind that the place clearly hadn't been updated since 1992. There was a stripper pole in the middle of the stage. It was clearly meant for a purpose. A sketchy purpose.
Also, the 70-year-old emcee tried to hook up some chick with my friend The Friendly Ghost. She refused. Everything was awkward.
I was the designated driver. The End.

New York's Finest Colonic Center
In December 2012, Fluid New York opened its facilities in Manhattan's trendy Flatiron District. Fluid is owned and managed by Dr. Francis Gonzalez, an experienced therapist with over 10 years of experience managing colon hydrotherapy clinics in New York, Maryland, and the Caribbean. Francis received a "Certified Instructor" designation from the International Association of Colon Therapists, the highest certification conferred by I-ACT, and obtained a Doctor of Naturopathy degree from Clayton College of Natural Health.
Along with Francis, Shannon Conklin and Lauren Torres comprise the staff of Fluid's certified therapists. Shannon is an I-ACT Certified Colon Hydrotherapist and has been involved in the field of alternative medicine for over 8 years in Manhattan and Long Island. Lauren is a Certified Medical Assistant with substantial experience conducting clinical colonoscopies and endoscopies for gastroenterologists.
At Fluid we work hand in hand with our clients to understand their wellness goals. You will always be able to consult any health-related issues with our certified therapists. Our focus is your entire wellness, not just your intestinal health. Plus, you'll receive proper nutritional guidance and access to exclusive medical-grade supplements.
For more information about I-ACT guidelines and requirements please visit www.i-act.org
According to the International Association of Colon Therapists, colon hydrotherapy is a safe, effective method of removing waste from the large intestine without the use of drugs.
At Fluid Water Therapy our foremost priority is your health. That is why we only use FDA-registered equipment and sterilized, disposable rectal nozzles during our colon hydrotherapy sessions. In addition, we ensure the quality of the water that goes into our clients' system by utilizing a sophisticated multi-stage water filtration system and double-UV light process that kills water-borne microorganisms.
We are proud to be part of a select group of professional therapists who offer the state-of-the art Angel of Water Surround ® colon hydrotherapy system ("AWS"). The AWS provides a safe, comfortable, and hygienic colonic irrigation experience. Its mixing valve ensures that the water temperature is maintained between 99 and 103 degrees Fahrenheit — the optimal range for effective intestinal cleansing.
During your first visit to Fluid, you will be asked to complete a health history form in our relaxing waiting room. This information will help us determine any pre-existing health issues and understand your wellness goals. After the health history form is completed, you will be led to a private room where a therapist will review your health information with you and explain how the AWS colon hydrotherapy system works.
The therapist will also answer any questions that you may have regarding the process and then provide you with privacy so that you may undress and lie down on the AWS machine. After you position yourself comfortably and insert the rectal nozzle, gravity-fed water will then enter your colon to initiate peristalsis, allowing you to release fecal matter.
During your session at Fluid, you can watch a movie, listen to some soothing music, or simply relax. At the end of the session you will remove the rectal nozzle and lean back into a lounge position to drain the colon. You will then rinse with the AWS's personal shower spray and towel dry before dressing.
The Turbosonic® is a whole-body vibration platform that enables the user to train various muscles and trigger bodily reactions. Whole-body vibration is initiated by a vibrating platform on which the user stands. The motors underneath the platform transmit vibration to the user.
These vibrations activate the lymphatic system by circulating stagnant fluids and increase the energy in the cells so that they can function more effectively. In addition to enhancing the body's detoxification functions, the Turbosonic helps release stress and tension during the process.

I see that Artefill is still being advertised all over LA, but I thought they went out of business months ago. Are people just trying to use up leftovers or what?
Why is ArteFill Still Being Advertised Even Though They're out of Business?
Doctor Answers (2)
Artefill back on market
Artefill was purchased by Suneva Medical, a privately held medical technology company in San Diego, Ca earlier this year and the product is back on the market. The original owner of the technology, Artes Medical, was a victim of the economy. Artefill was then temporarily out of production, but has since been relaunched and is back in many dermatology offices.
Artefill is the only FDA approved filler of it's type and is, for all practical purposes, a permanent filler that contains nondegradable polymer microspheres. The carrier, bovine collagen, breaks down, but the tiny beads do not. Thus Artefill is typically only encouraged for use by experienced filler patients who know how fillers have changed their appearance.
When used in the indicated areas, Artefill is a viable alternative to temporary fillers which typically break down over the course of 6 to 9 months.
Artefill is not indicated for use in the lips or in surface lines or wrinkles. Because of its permanency, I will often use a graduated approach and layer the product in several sessions over time to achieve a final desired correction.
Artefill requires pretesting because of the small potential sensitivity to bovine collagen gel used to suspend the beads for injection.
Physicians are drawing down their stock of ArteFill.
You're correct that the company is no longer in business. But since the product is still FDA-approved, physicians can still offer their existing supply to patients.
Eventually, of course, that existing stock will be depleted and that'll be the end of its availability. That is unless another biotech concern resurrects the company or the manufacturing.
These answers are for educational purposes and should not be relied upon as a substitute for medical advice you may receive from your physician. If you have a medical emergency, please call 911. These answers do not constitute or initiate a patient/doctor relationship.

VIDEO: Cloud Cult Releases 'All the Things We Couldn't See' Video
Experimental indie rock fans, mark your calendars: Cloud Cult's ninth full-length album, Love, is coming out on March 5th on the band's own label, Earthology Records. Fans can pre-order the record now via the group's site (www.cloudcult.com). Cloud Cult will be touring extensively in the Spring. See confirmed dates below. In other news, The A.V. Club has the premiere of the music video for their first single, "All The Things We Couldn't See." As a perfect Cloud Cult song, it is "lush, beautiful, and more of a visual collage than a story." Check out the music video below!
Cloud Cult is an experimental chamber rock band from the Midwest who has maintained a decade and a half career by remaining completely independent. They've sold more than 100,000 albums via their own label, Earthology Records, which was created by singer/songwriter Craig Minowa in the late 90s out of what he called "necessity," due to the fact that there simply weren't options for environmentally friendly CD manufacturing in the industry at that time. Cloud Cult was at the forefront of the "green" movement, helping co-develop the now wildly popular recycled paperboard CD cases while also creating models for zero net greenhouse gas production for touring bands.
In addition to becoming known for their eco-friendly practices, Cloud Cult has also become known for its philosophical lyrics, as Minowa has used many of the songs to search for answers to spiritual questions after the unexpected loss of his two year old son in 2002. Another aspect of the band that has brought them some attention (most notably from The Wall Street Journal) is the fact that their live show features two live painters whose art is auctioned off at the end of the night. Along with the live painters, Cloud Cult's live shows feature a full band complete with violin, cello, trumpet, trombone, and French horn.
Love is the band's 9th full-length album and is the follow up to 2010's Light Chasers. Cloud Cult will support the release with a North American tour in March thru May 2013, including performances at this year's SXSW Festival. Alone with the new album, the feature length documentary on Cloud Cult "No One Said It Would Be Easy" will debut in early 2013 on Netflix, iTunes, and Amazon. A full length biography about Cloud Cult's Journey as a band by author Mark Allister is slated for release in late 2013.

DESTIN, Fla.—The SEC spring meetings are underway here at the Hilton Sandestin Beach.
So far I'd say the most eventful thing that has happened is that Georgia football coach Mark Richt killed my digital audio recorder.
As far as I can tell, it wasn't due to anything I wrote.
Richt took his seat at a table lined with reporters this morning. I set my recorder in front of him. He asked for a cup of water. Then he accidentally knocked it over, dousing my recorder and a couple of others. I think.
My recorder is fried. Luckily, I had a handy backup that I used instead.
I told Richt afterwards that he had put an end to a recorder that I may have had since way back in the Bulldogs' 2005 SEC championship season.
"I did? Just now with the water. Well, tell me what I owe you," Richt said.
We did not hash out a deal.
"I'm sorry about that," Richt said finding some humor in the moment. "You did see the table though? There was two tables that were pushed together."
So let's blame this on the person that set up the room.
The damage this time was more painful than the coffee I had spilled on me in the deli a few years ago by the wife of Mississippi State basketball coach Rick Stansbury. She was very apologetic.
Richt spoke a good bit about oversigning. Here are excerpts:
On if he would be able to live only signing 25:
I'm just going to listen to what everybody has to say before I decide. Sometimes you think you know the right answer and then you hear somebody else's opinion or at least their rationale. One time we were talking about the early signing date and all that kind of stuff. I felt one way going into the meeting and I felt a little differently after hearing everybody's thoughts on it. I really don't know what I think on it right now.
On if 28 signees seem like a good number:
Just same answer. I'd like to hear what everybody else has to say about it before I can really make a good decision on that.
On the characterization that it's Richt vs. Saban and Nutt on philosophies on oversigning:
I was asked my opinion on the oversigning thing. I think everybody should should have a right to manage their numbers. I think every university should be able to do that. I think oversigning is OK, in my opinion, if you sign over the number. Let's say you have space for 15 by signing date and you sign 20. Well, if five of those guys know that there's no room at the end that they are willing to grayshirt, they're willing to come in January. The kid knows, the high school coach knows, everybody involved in recruiting if they know that there's a chance that there's no space for you. If everybody knows that on the front end, then I don't see anything wrong with it ethically. The rule may say you can't do that but I personally think that if everybody knows that on the front end, that's fine. We all know from the signing date to when they enroll in school, there's attrition. Historically there's enough attrition and usually there's enough attrition to make room for any kind of oversigning. If those five guys know on the front end that hey there's room for you when everybody else comes in, come in with your class. If there's not room, you know on the front end, you'll come in January. I don't see anything wrong with that.
What I've said is if you sign five over and you get to that moment of truth and you have to tell two kids who thought they were coming in with everybody else and then all of a sudden you spring the news, hey there's no room I'm sorry. We've got to come back in January, I don't think that's right. I never said anybody did that. I wasn't accusing anybody of anything. I was just saying that if everybody knows on the front end what's going on, I don't see a problem with it. Some kids just want to come to Georgia. They're like hey, I just want to take that chance of being grayshirted. If there's room, I come in with my class. If there's a guy that you know that you signed will not qualify, then you know you might have signed what looks like one over or however many over that you may have available. If you know 100 percent that kid's not going to qualify and he's going to go to junior college I don't see a problem with that. That's a lot of what's been going on. If there is that kid that gets shocked or a group of 25 guys in the summer, but there's only room for 20 and then at the end of the summer then you decide which five have to come to school in January then I don't think that's right if it's a shock to them. If they know on the front end then I don't see a problem with it. If someone wants to spin it another way, they can spin it another way, but I've never accused anybody of anything.
On whether you push a kid out and if kids know if it's a one year deal:
I think they all know it's a one-year renewable deal. I think if a guy in your mind just isn't good enough, I don't think we should personally be pushing a guy out the door because we didn't think he was good enough. Guys develop and get better. If a kid is looking around to and he's saying my chance of playing here is not very good, I want to go somewhere where I can play and you can't keep a kid from doing that. If a kid or a parent comes and says `Coach, what's my chance of playing here,' and you say well right now I don't know how good my chance is, but it's up to you. If a kid's injured and he can't play anymore, he can't play anymore. If he ends up being a medical DQ and you can still keep him on scholarship and you can help him get his degree and keep him in your program and have him help you coach or do something in strength or whatever to keep him where he's part of the family still, he doesn't feel like an outcast out there. We had a kid named Albert Hollis years ago who had tore…the first spring I was here, he's running around the right end and his knee dislocates. He probably will never play another snap at Georgia again. You can medically DQ him at that moment and take care of his school, but this guys got nerve damage, he's got drop foot, he's got some rehab ahead of him. I had to sit there and make a decision, what's in the best interest of this kid. In my opinion the best interest in this kid was to keep him active in the 85. Once you DQ him, you can't unDQ him two years later. He's got at least a two year rehab. We felt like his best chance with rehab where he could walk again as normal as possible. He needed to have that carrot out in front of him where he might be able to play again one day. It did take about two or three years of rehab. DQed him last year when he knew he couldn't anymore. You've got to do what's in the best interest in the kid in these situations and you've got to do what's in the best interest in your program too, but you've got to do it in a way—there's a right way of doing those things I think. Ever tell a kid they might want to look elsewhere for lack of playing time? We have exit meetings after every spring and we tell them where they are on the depth chart. We tell them what they have got to do to move up on the depth chart. If a kid is sizing the thing up and is saying I don't know if I'm going to play then there's constant rumors about kids thinking about transferring. If at the end of the spring he got beat out by another guy, a lot of times they're thinking maybe they should be the starter or second string instead of third. Sometimes they start spinning it that hey maybe I need to go somewhere else. That happens at every program in America at all different levels of football. Meyer on recruiting issues I can only speak to the way we do it. We try like mad to do it with integrity. We try to go by the rules. We try to talk to the recruits about Georgia. We do ask our recruits. I do talk to recruits and this is not a new practice it's been that way ever since I've been at Georgia. I always take with a grain of salt that if another school is talking about their own school, listen to what they have to say. But if another school is talking about another school, you've got to take that with a grain of salt. We really try to talk about the reason why Georgia's a great place for whoever we're recruiting.

Notes from the Orchestra
Laura Sinnerton, viola player for the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and blogger for the BBC's Wales Music site had been sharing a few secrets behind the recordings for the Doctor Who soundtrack.
While it may sound exciting to be providing the emotional and dramatic heft to those all important moments in an average Doctor Who episode, recording these moments can be anything but.
So Laura has decide to dispel a few studio recording myths. Firstly, she never gets to see any of the episodes:
"You know that wonderful scene in The Pandorica Opens when the Doctor gives an epic Churchillian speech from atop a boulder at Stonehenge? We did not see that."
However because of the organisation and focus of composer Murray Gold and Session Director Ben Foster, these Doctor Who sessions are seemingly painless affairs. More importantly, they also coincide with 'cake day'! Cake and Doctor Who; it's like every Saturday of my life! Snacks-acoricofallapatorious get in touch! (With the orchestra I mean, not me, well actually…)
To read more bubble bursting facts about recording soundtracks, such as the unforgiving click track and the omnipresent fear of that moment when the red light flashes and recording begins, visit Laura's BBC blog.
One Response to Notes from the Orchestra
Cake and Doctor Who?
hmmm…..I can't see the two mixing well myself

Matthew Quick
Adult Fiction QUICK
Summary: An enchanting first novel about love, madness, and Kenny G. The Silver Linings Playbook is the riotous and poignant story of how one man regains his memory and comes to terms with the magnitude of his wife's betrayal. During the years he spends in a neural health facility, Pat Peoples formulates a theory about silver linings: he believes his life is a movie produced by God, his mission is to become physically fit and emotionally supportive, and his happy ending will be the return of his estranged wife, Nikki. When Pat goes to live with his parents, everything seems changed: no one will talk to him about Nikki; his old friends are saddled with families; the Philadelphia Eagles keep losing, making his father moody; and his new therapist seems to be recommending adultery as a form of therapy. When Pat meets the tragically widowed and clinically depressed Tiffany, she offers to act as a liaison between him and his wife, if only he will give up watching football, agree to perform in this year's Dance Away Depression competition, and promise not to tell anyone about their "contract." All the while, Pat keeps searching for his silver lining. In this brilliantly written debut novel, Matthew Quick takes us inside Pat's mind, deftly showing us the world from his distorted yet endearing perspective. The result is a touching and funny story that helps us look at both depression and love in a wonderfully refreshing way.

Arsenal owner Kroenke hopes Wenger agrees to new managerial contract
9/27/13 in Soccer | SamuelWhale | 589 respect
When the going gets tough, the tough get going, Arsene Wenger has closely lived by that formula in his managerial career. The time-tested and celebrated Arsenal manager has faced the music from the club's fans and owners many times. The French boss was close to making a forced exit a couple of times, but Wenger somehow manages to pull through and show his worth to the club in the end.
Only a couple of months ago, the majority of Arsenal fans were begging the administration to sack Wenger. The faithful of the North Londoners no longer believed in the vision of the Gunners boss, but impressive form and big signings have rejuvenated Wenger's career at the Emirates.
Wenger has agreed to signing a new contract yet, something that brought smiles to the faces of unhappy Arsenal fans only a month ago. However, now each Gunner is raising the banner of "In Wenger We Trust". Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke admits he would love to see Wenger extend his stay at the club and end the trophy curse.
Kroenke, who seldom appears in front of the media, told reporters from the Telegraph that he hoped Wenger would agree to remain at Arsenal for a third decade. Kroenke also praised the achievements Wenger has acquired in a 17-year long spell with Arsenal.
"There's no one I feel more strongly about and I think he is doing a great job," Kroenke said. "We have been very supportive, we have never wavered, we are proud of him, proud of the club, the way the club is run and how it holds itself out to the world.
"Arsene knows how we feel, what our philosophy is, what we want to do and I feel like we are totally aligned. I think he wants to do it the exact same way as we do."
"Arsene is his own man, he will make up his own mind. There is a lot of pressure in the job, he has handled it very well but at some point we all make up our minds whether we continue in our careers."
Kroenke admitted he loved the "passion" Wenger showed to the club and the game and believed that such devotion will certainly bear fruit.
"I don't want to say something about Arsene that is not the way he feels but, to me, I think he seems to love what he does. I had my son and a bunch of his friends at the training ground. A couple of them are NBA players.
"We were standing out in the rain watching. It rained like hell. This was going on for several hours. I was getting worried about players getting hit by lightning and Arsene was out in the middle of it. He's out there coaching every day. You've got to love that or you can't do it. That's a passion."
"I really enjoy Arsene -- very smart, very intelligent," Kroenke added. "He has an absolute view on how he runs that team and the club. He has earned that right. Don't look for me to interfere with that. I have learnt over the years that sometimes owners try do that and it is not so good."

Adventures of Apollo Astronauts Now Tracked in 3-D
Researchers have used new lunar satellite images to pinpoint exactly where the Apollo 17 astronauts took their iconic photographs of the moon's surface. That data has in turn allowed planetary scientists to build the most precise 3-D maps yet of the Apollo 17 mission site.
"We're making these images more valuable by giving them incredibly accurate coordinates," said planetary scientist Mark Robinson of Arizona State University. "The 3-D models of areas explored by astronauts may enable future exploration of these sites and allow us to better understand the observations they made at the time."
Robinson and his team's study of the Apollo 17 site was published online April 1 in the Journal of Geophysical Research.

Retirement age will rise to 70 by 2035PUBLISHED: 02 May 2014 08:56:00 | UPDATED: 02 May 2014 15:03:04PRINT EDITION: 02 May 2014
The federal budget will lift the retirement age to 70 by 2035, Treasurer Joe Hockey says, amid a storm of protest from welfare and disability groups, doctors, unions and the education sector following the draconian measures recommended by the audit commission. Photo: Glenn Hunt
Phillip Coorey Chief political correspondent
The federal budget will lift the retirement age to 70 by 2035, Treasurer Joe Hockey has announced, but he might not get the change through the Senate.
Mr Hockey said he expected Labor to support the change but opposition families spokeswoman Jenny Macklin said it was a broken promise and Labor would not be supporting it.
"The Prime Minister has no mandate to make changes to pensions in this year's budget – regardless of when these measures commence,'' she said.
"This is the first recommendation from the commission of audit that the government has responded to explicitly.''
Mr Hockey argued that the Coalition in opposition had supported Labor lifting the retirement age from 65 to 67 by 2023.
The date nominated by the Coalition is almost 20 years earlier than the year 2053 as recommended by the government's commission of audit released on Thursday. It will affect everyone born in 1965 and onwards.
'Your wealth should not determine your health'
Bringing forward the date as recommended by the audit commission further suggests the government will not implement some of the other harsher recommendations of the audit commission, such as bringing the family home in to the income assets test in 2027-28.
Labor is also threatening to block the proposed deficit tax and Medicare co-payments, arguing the former is a broken promise and the latter would undermine the universal health care system.
"Your wealth should not determine your health," said shadow treasurer, Chris Bowen.
Mr Hockey's announcement came amid a storm of protest from welfare and disability groups, doctors, unions and the education sector following the draconian measures recommended by the audit commission.
These include the Americanisation of the health system in which people on higher incomes would be excluded from Medicare and be forced to cover their health costs through expanded private health cover. The audit also recommended a $15 co-payment to visit the doctor, a concept the government will adopt at the budget but probably atv a lower level.
However, one controversial suggestion – to give the states sole responsibility for health and education and give them the power to access income tax revenue and raise their own – was due to be discussed when the Premiers and Prime Minister Tony Abbott met in Canberra Friday for the Council of Australian Governments meeting.
Queensland Premier Campbell Newman supported the idea, saying the states could then "sink or swim" on their performance and would have no one else to blame.
'Mind-boggling waste and duplication'
The concept will be discussed as they debate the terms of reference for the White Paper on federation the government has previously promised.
Audit chairman Tony Shepherd cited the "mind-boggling waste and duplication" caused by joint state-federal responsibilities for such services as schools, health and vocational education as one of the most serious structural budget challenges. His audit recommends the states collect income tax, and even set their own rates, in return for taking full responsibility for these services.
The report recommends state and federal governments should each be sovereign in their own sphere. If education, health and natural disaster relief were to be completely devolved to the states, then there must also be an overhaul of tax and funding arrangements.
It recommends that the Commonwealth, for example, drop the 32.5 per cent income tax rate, which applies to incomes from $37,000 to $80,000, by 10 percentage points.
It would then levy a 10 per cent state surcharge, the proceeds of which would be quarantined and given to the states to spend as they wish.
This example would give the states an extra $25 billion a year and the Commonwealth would then withdraw from the states $25 billion in grants it would typically hand over.
However, it also recommends the states be allowed to individually raise the surcharge rate, which could create a system of different income tax rates across the country.
