Army Reserve Brig. Gen. Michaelene 'Mikey' Kloster. Kloster discovered she had Stage 3 breast cancer in 2011. (Jennifer Corbett / The (Wilmington, Del.) News Jou)
JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, N.J. — Michaelene Kloster oversees all hand-to-hand combat training for about 4,000 Army Reserve drill sergeants from Maine to Puerto Rico.
Those trainers could learn a lot about toughness from the diminutive brigadier general.
It takes a lot of grit to come face-to-face with the enemy. But �Mikey� Kloster toughed it out through three surgeries � including a double mastectomy � and chemotherapy and radiation treatment, for the Stage 3 breast cancer an imaging exam revealed in the spring of 2011.
An estimated 230,480 U.S. women were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer that year, and 39,420 women were predicted to die from it. The precise figures are not yet available.
Kloster, with more than two decades of service and five commands under her belt, approached the disease like many in the military might have: as an objective to be taken.
Her initial reaction was a common one. �Why me?� said Kloster, 50, who was raised in Wilmington, commands the Army Reserve�s 98th Training Division at Fort Benning, Ga., on weekends and is civilian chief of staff for the 99th Regional Training Support Command at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst. �You feel sorry for yourself a little bit.�
That didn�t last long. Kloster commanded a 500-troop personnel services battalion in Iraq in 2003, earned a combat action ribbon for taking enemy fire during convoy duty and was aboard a helicopter that in January 2004 was struck and grounded at night by an enemy rocket round. She decided to approach cancer as an Army unit would attack an enemy position.
�We have a mission,� she said. �Let�s get it done, let�s knock it out and get to the next thing. And I think I am so wired to do that � not only as a person, but also as a leader in the military. I�m used to beatin� the enemy. This is my personal enemy, I�ve overcome other ones, and I�m going to overcome this �nasty.� �
She also took the diagnosis as a personal affront.
�You�re not gonna get the best of me,� Kloster said, personalizing the cancer. �You may take parts of my body away from me. But you�re not going to take away who I am, and my abilities, and things I�ve worked at, and things that people believe in me and count on me for. We don�t have to let that happen. And I didn�t let it.�
Not only has she survived this long; she�s done so through two critical points in her career, launched 29 years ago when she was named a distinguished military graduate of her 1984 ROTC class at the University of Delaware and began a decade of active-duty service before shifting to the National Guard and, for the past 13 years, the Army Reserve.
In 2007, following a hip replacement, a nerve problem left her leg temporarily paralyzed. �I didn�t walk unassisted for about a year,� she said.
Kloster feared being medically retired. She was in the midst of Army War College studies, a requirement for promotion from colonel to general. Instead, she graduated, completed her rehabilitation and was selected for command of a brigade.
Then, during an annual physical, she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
�We thought that I had one lump,� Kloster said of the initial exam. From the surface, it seemed small � she could barely feel it with her fingertips. But because of her age, her surgeon recommended an MRI. �We found three lumps on one side, and one lump on the other,� she said.
The protocol called for a double mastectomy. The surgery was performed at Virtua Memorial Hospital in Mount Holly, N.J., on July 5, 2011. Surgeons removed 15 lymph nodes, six of which were cancerous.
Chemotherapy � �That�s some tough stuff,� she said. �You�re very nauseous.� And the drug she was given to ensure her white blood count returned to normal, she said, �hurt more than the chemo did.�
The treatment lasted through Christmas.
Then, in mid-January, seven weeks of daily radiation treatment began. Kloster, employing British slang, said she received the �full monty� of cancer treatment. The pain, she said, could have been debilitating. She pushed it aside as best she could.
�I just dealt with it,� Kloster said. �I went to work every day I could go to work, because I did not want to sit around the house and feel sorry for myself. If I felt a little sick, that didn�t mean I couldn�t move. If I felt a lot sick and I couldn�t move, I stayed on the couch. But I needed to keep moving for my own mental health, and not let it get the best of me.�
Still, she expected to be told she would be medically discharged. The Army wants fit soldiers of all ranks, and the weakened Kloster couldn�t do a single pushup. Instead, she received an unexpected call just as her radiation treatments were finished: You�ve been selected for promotion to brigadier general.
�They clearly had confidence in me,� Kloster said. �I thought, wow, if that�s not a good shot in the arm to make you feel like you still have value and worth. It certainly revitalized and energized me.�
And, right out of the gates, the Army Reserve gave her a division command � her sixth command position.
Kloster was not a candidate for �revision� surgery � breast shape restoration that involves tissue transplants or implants � because the lymph node issues demand immediate radiation treatment. That can damage the surrounding skin, which can cause problems with implants and natural tissue reconstruction, according to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure. As such, the group said, immediate reconstruction is recommended � and the multiple-surgery revision process can take six months to a year, Kloster said.
It was a collective decision by Kloster and her doctors. �I really, really wanted to get the treatment,� she said, �because my life was much more important than my figure at that point in time. So I wear prosthetics when I need to.�
Kloster was more concerned about a different part of her body � her hair.
That fall, following her surgery, Kloster had to submit a packet of documents for the Army general officer selection board to consider. She had her official photo taken in August � four days before her hair fell victim to the chemo.
�I did not like my hair falling out,� she said. �I think, getting into what it means to be a woman, women just don�t sport the bald look very well. We don�t want to be bald, for the most part. But you, like, lose every hair on your body.�
Today, the 5-foot-3 Kloster looks fit and trim and said she feels good at 119 pounds. �I can�t go out and run a marathon, but I can certainly walk and jog right now,� she said. She can pass the Army�s physical fitness test, she said.
So far, so good. �I have my big checkup in November,� she said. �And we�ll keep our fingers crossed that I�m continuing to be healthy.�
To others, her advice is simple: �Go get your checkups,� she said. �Because you just don�t know. I was the epitome of health and fitness. This was a total surprise to me.
�It can make the difference between life and death.�

Re: Best (Made for TV) Horror Movies?
These were already mentioned but here's my list:
Salem's Lot (much better than the remake!)
The Night Stalker
And I'm not for sure if this was originally a theatrical release but I remember watching The Other on TV years ago. Not horror but more of a thriller.

And now, a lengthy post on something I never thought would happen to me
Okay, so here's le scoop:
Just after the Weardrobe bloggers' Conference had ended, Jessica of WhatIWore referred me to a calling Seventeen Magazine was holding for their style council; which is basically a panel of stylish girls who contribute to the magazine with style tips and other bits of fashion-related curiosities. In all honesty, I had submitted my application thingy just for the hell of it with little hope I would be chosen since I just have this horrid complex of not believing in myself when national publications are involved.
Please excuse the exceptionally crappy scan. I wish you could see my brogues in the first photo a little better along with the vintage scarf and broaches I made in better detail, but life goes on.
I hadn't picked up an issue of Seventeen since I was about 14, so this was a pretty interesting experience. I got to meet the AMAZING staff and work inside the Hearst building where all of the Hearst publications are produced (Esquire,Marie Claire, Redbook, etc.).
((thanks to Sammy for the clarification!))
So, what I have posted below me is a video that I shot and edited myself for Seventeen. I was asked to give an introduction on myself and show off my closets.
I'm just warning you though, I'm pretty good at making a complete ass of myself (as you will see) ENJOY!
I am such a dingbat.
Fun facts about this video:
-This is the first video I have ever shot/edited myself, it took me 4 hours to finish.
-The first shots are in my 3rd floor studio/attic/wreck-room where I shoot most of my blog photos. I pretty much live in my studio, I actually sleep up there and not in my bedroom.
-The I Heart NY poster was given to me the first year I moved to Buffalo. I miss NYC terribly and I keep it up as a reminder of where my roots are.
-The mannequin in my room is from the Pottery Barn circa 2004, it eerily has the same measurements as me.
We are featured in the March issue (The one with Lauren Conrad on the cover) on page 46 & it's out on newsstands now should you ever wanna see the girls for yourself!
My next feature in Seventeen will be in the May issue and the June/July issue. In the meanby, I will be blogging on the Style Council's section of Seventeen's website!

hey Claire!
CONGRATS!!! This is amazing and so deserving. I'm so glad Miss Jessica pointed you in the right direction ;-)
I used to work at Hearst (woo!) and have good friends at Seventeen. Anyway, just a TAD correction. Seriously, no no no offense. But Conde Nast is different than Hearst. The magazines you referenced are not produced in the Hearst building. They are produced in the Conde Nast building at 4 Times Square.
NO BIGGIE THOUGH! But if you do want to correct, just cite Hearst mags like Esquire, Good Housekeeping, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Redbook, etc.
xoxoxo would love to gift you some vintage from my collection if ever interested!

Denis S. Lukashkov, (middle) a 20-year-old Cornell University student from Mamaroneck has been identified as the driver who abandoned a car on the Tappan Zee Bridge.
- Filed Under
A 20-year-old Cornell student from Mamaroneck phoned his mother to ask about money and played video games with friends Tuesday night before he drove through the night from Ithaca to Westchester, turned around and stopped on the Tappan Zee Bridge.
State police found Denis Lukashkov's abandoned Honda Accord, with his identification and car keys on the front seat, at 4:25 a.m. Wednesday and say he may have jumped into the Hudson River. But with the absence of any witnesses or other reported evidence of a suicide, his mother said Friday that she believes her son is still alive.

Two Michigan boys are among the 24 nationwide who have been sickened in the past two weeks by a strain of E. coli associated with recalled frozen foods, the state health department said Monday.
The Michigan Department of Community Health said the boys, from mid-Michigan, were infected with E. Coli O121, which has been found in Farm Rich food products, manufactured by Rich Products in Buffalo, N.Y.
The company has recalled almost 200,000 pounds of food since March 28. Some of the products recalled include chicken quesadillas and mozzarella bites. An updated list is at www.fsis.usda.gov.
MDCH spokeswoman Angela Minicuci said she does not know which products the two ate.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta said more than 75% of the people infected are younger than 21, and that one-third required hospitalization. MDCH did not say whether the Michigan boys were among those hospitalized.
E. coli O121 is similar to other forms of E. coli that cause diarrhea, cramps and sometimes fever. Illness lasts for about a week. The strain releases a toxin that kills blood vessel cells, leading to blood loss that is sometimes seen in people reporting diarrhea. According to the CDC, people who become infected with E. coli O121, especially those younger than 5 and elderly people are at risk for a type of kidney failure that starts when symptoms subside.
MDCH officials said in a statement that people who are suffering from bloody diarrhea should visit their doctors, and check their freezers for recalled Farm Rich products. The products are sold at major market chains and more than 47 stores statewide are believed to be involved in the recall. The list is here: www.fsis.usda.gov .
The 22 other people who have tested positive in this outbreak are in 14 states, including Ohio, New York and Texas. The USDA was notified of the growing number of cases on March 19.

Topic: Horror Films of Actors/ Actresses Not Usually Known For Horror 4/10O
Here we are boys & girls with Number 4 in the series and here it is
4. ERNEST BORGNINE. Popular actor in a fair share of classic films such as From Here To Eternity, Bad Day at Black Rock, the Wild Bunch, The Posiedon Adventure etc and all round good guy. He did dabble in some of our genre and here are five examples in chronological order as usual.
1. WILLARD ( 1971). Ernest's first horror appearance was as the blowsy Al Martin, boss of quiet and lonely Willard Styles the put upon office worker who befriends a couple of rats who get their hordes to attack those who have wronged Willard their friend and Ernie ends up as a victim.Apparently a lot of his screams in the film were real, he did not like rats and i can't say i blame him, also received a bite or two during filming.
2.THE DEVIL'S RAIN (1975) Ernest plays Jonathan Corbis a devious and devilish leader of a devil cult that threatens a starry cast of William Shatner, Tom Skerritt, Eddie Albert and as a member of his devil Coven a young John Travolta. it's a sleazy B film directed by Robert Fuest and while not particularly good, it has a memorable finale and Ernie turns into a goat like devil creature.
3.THE GHOST OF FLIGHT 401 ( 1978) This was a t v movie that i can remember seeing only once late one Friday night ages ago and i remember thinking it was good. Based on true events that are well documented about a plane crash in the Florida Everglades which kills 103 people. the remains of the plane are used on other planes which results in the ghost of the pilot of the stricken plane appearing on the other planes. Ernest Borgnine plays Dom Cimoli the ghost of the pilot.
4.DEADLY BLESSING ( 1981)This was one of the early efforts from director Wes Craven, and is set in the Amish Community where a woman with her Amish Husband moves into the community. Her husband is killed in a seemingly accident but she finds sinister and disturbing things going on in the community. Ernie plays Isiah Schmidt the leader of the Amish Community and film has some good moments involving spiders in the mouth and devilish
entities. The women are good looking in the cast including Maren Jensen and a young Sharon Stone and also features an appearance from Craven Regular Michael Berryman.
5.ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK ( 1981) Not a big role for Ernie in this John Carpenter science fiction action romp where the u s president's plane crashes in new York now one big prison with criminals living, fighting and dying amongst themselves in a future world. Snake Plissken a one eyed war veteren is sent in to rescue him. Ernie plays Cabbie and does his usual lovable, toothy grinning character and is one of the people along the way that assists Snake played of course by Kurt Russell. A watchable if over rated action film.
There we go with some more films that you can seek out and see if you wish and feel free to comment. see you soon with number 5 in the series. keep it horror!

Two round scheduling holes -- one in the Big East, one in the SEC -- each found a round peg Friday as Rutgers and Arkansas officially agreed to play a home-and-home series starting this fall in Fayetteville.
Thanks to the latest round of conference realignment, both programs found themselves with gaps to fill in their 2012 slate--Rutgers needing a replacement for Big 12 defector West Virginia, and Arkansas one for Texas A&M, thanks to their nonconference series with the Aggies becoming a conference matchup instead.
The agreement has been rumored for weeks, but became official with statements issued by both sides Friday morning. The 2012 meeting will be held at Arkansas's regular home stadium in Fayetteville on Sept. 22, 2012, with the return game set for Sept. 21, 2013. The game will mark the first-ever meeting between the schools and the first time any SEC program has made the trip to Piscataway.
"It is a constant priority to secure marquee scheduling opportunities for our football program and our fans," Rutgers athletic director Tim Pernetti said. "This home-and-home series with Arkansas clearly illustrates another enhancement of that strategy ... This agreement further enhances our future non-conference game schedule which includes Penn State, Miami and UCLA."
"We are pleased to add a quality non-conference opponent like Rutgers to our 2012 football schedule," Razorback athletic director Jeff Long said. "The additions of Texas A&M and Missouri and the delay in the release of the conference schedule posed some specific scheduling challenges for the 2012 season. We know that many other events around the state are contingent on the Razorback football schedule and we appreciate the patience of our fans as we worked through this process."
The agreement completes Arkansas's 2012 schedule, while Rutgers still needs one additional conference opponent. With a rumored in-season rematch with Syracuse off the table, the Scarlet Knights -- like the rest of the Big East -- are no doubt hoping fervently that Boise State will swoop in to rescue the league schedule.
Arkansas also announced that it would be playing Ole Miss in Little Rock's War Memorial Stadium and LSU in Fayetteville. With Arkansas traditionally hosting LSU in Little Rock, the latter game will mark the Bayou Bengals' first visit to the Arkansas campus since the Hogs' inaugural SEC season in 1992.Keep up with the latest college football news from around the country.

I often recommend them, both as a starting point for new parents who are just beginning to study Waldorf Ed., and to more seasoned homeschoolers looking for curriculum ideas. Donna's words are like an offer of a reassuring hand, to make me feel: 'I can do it' and to help me relax and know that my instincts are right.
She deeply understands developmental readiness, and her encouraging words have often helped me to observe my child with a fresh perspective, and to relax, knowing that I don't need to push the learning process ... Having Donna's books to refer to is like having a wry and witty best friend, just an arm's length away, ready to share her wisdom and encouragement.
Thea Bodger,homeschooler and Waldorf early years teacher
We feel blessed to have come across your website under Waldorf homeschooling. Have always wanted to incorporate Steiner into our lives, but had no access to the school itself and found some Steiner books over my head/ hard to read. Everything in the books I have skimmed through rings so true and feels so right. They incorporate humor and give me all the ideas and info that I have been seeking in this technocratic world! Thank you so very much for these books.
Anneke and Craig
I'm finding the whole homeschool thing very challenging, and one downfall of all this waldorf stuff for me is that I now have such high standards of how I want things to be. When things get hard, and I yell at the children, act like a child myself and totally lose it,(which is daily) I come back to your books, your audios and this forum [Waldorf at Home]. And now, as I read the books, I can sort of hear your voice and your intonations. I really like your sense of humour, and combination of common sense and yet strong opinions. Anyway, I just wanted you to know. Thank you.
I did receive both the order and the audio download. I was so impressed with each and every item that I ordered and am anxious to listen to the audio download. In fact, I am going to use the Christopherus Curriculum with my daughter! What I have read, so far, answers a multitude of questions and fills so many gaps that I am experiencing with [another homeschool] curriculum.
Many, many thanks for providing such creative, thoughtful, fulfilling and practical ways to connect and teach my daughter! These resources truly exceed my expectations! (I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the schedule provided with each block, as well as the blocks, themselves.) THANK YOU! Sincerely,
Jennifer Moore
Reflecting back on all the wonderful Christopherus works that I own, Joyful Movement, the overview, the nature book, form drawing, the Kindergarten book, the drawing book, several of your second grade materials (animal legends and the math book), and now Living Language, I just wanted to send another big thank you to Donna and the entire Christopherus gang.
Two years ago we started our homeschooling journey with Enki and I was overwhelmed! I loved the story materials, but the guidance was very lacking. Without Donna's materials I would have never figured out how to use the wonderful Enki stories. (and I'm a self-educated, intelligent gal! I just didn't have the time to wade through all those binders and binders of resources and read through the vast amount of theory. And I lacked the teaching experience to be able to turn all that theory into something useable and do-able).
I find Donna's take on Waldorf, homeschooling, and unschooling echoes my own very closely, and so I find comfort in her practical, down-to-earth guidance. She has helped me to be able to navigate our own course on our homeschooling journey. I just want to make sure she knows how much I appreciate these materials, and the heart and soul that she and her entire family have poured into them. Thank you so very much.

I was trying to get along without ordering Saints and Heroes and 2nd Grade Mathematics, using the many other resources that I have, but I was realizing that I was missing your voice, conciseness and direction. I constantly struggle with the balance of unschooling and getting in the Waldorf framework. Your books make me feel like I can check off certain Waldorf principles balancing it with our natural family rhythms and my interests.
I think I read nearly every word on your website in the first few days! I've listened to several of your audio downloads. Your voice is so calming and reassuring, to say nothing of the helpful content.
All I can say is that I feel inspired and empowered, in a word, nurtured, in my role as a mother and as a woman. I felt myself exhale. I hadn't realized I was holding my breath! It was like 'oh my god, somebody out there gets me. Somebody out there knows what I'm trying to do better than I do and she's done it, AND she's willing to share her insight and wisdom!'
Thank you! Thank you!
Most sincerely,
The Overview, especially, has been my guide since the day I first held it in my hands, and although we drift off to this and that, it's the backbone of what I do here at the Egan Family Homeschool. How can I ever thank you?
I listened to the therapeutic talk yesterday and it was so interesting, and then, at the end, you said a sentence that knocked me off my feet and made me remember why I chose Waldorf and why it's healing "powers" are so important in this day and age. My youngest daughter is "gifted" (whatever that means) and is nowhere near appropriately incarnated into her body. That's what happens when you let in-laws and "experts" and fear lead you astray from what you know is truth. Thank goodness for your voice of reason Donna. You help me in more ways than I can ever express.
And as to the Overview, when I'm feeling a little overwhelmed I often just flop it open and pick a phrase or sentence that will inspire me in that moment. This trick has *never* failed me. Never.
As you know, I love to buy your books - for myself, as gifts, and for any reason I can think of! I will continue to support Christopherus this way as long as I can. I couldn't do it without you.
We are into our Language Arts block, and Madison, my six year old, is loving every minute of the Prince's adventure with the Wise Woman. I am too. This is the most creative and fun way to learn! Maddie asked me today on her way down the hall......."Mom how does a "j" go again?"......and then before she turned the corner.....in the most satisfied voice she said, " never mind, I know, ....like the jester."
My husband is in school full time right now, and very busy with his studies. Maddie can't wait to show him, when he comes home, her latest pictures in her main lesson book. She's so proud of what she's learned and of her artwork.
It feels so rewarding to watch her shine like this. As I've shared with you before, we are new to the Waldorf approach, and I am continually grateful that we've found it, and you. What a difference your books have brought to our home. We love circle time so much more now that we've been using the Joyful Movement book. My two year old son and four year old daughter join in singing and clapping.
Many, many thanks for all your hard work!

It is so easy to become overwhelmed by the multitude of tacky and gimmicky books about Ancient Egypt which are focused not on the life of that magnificent culture, but on its death and remains. We chose this book and recommend its use as part of our 5th grade Ancient Mythology main lesson as it is refreshingly simple, focused on the lives of everyday people from this culture.
Each two-page spread comprises a first person narrative and a picture of that person engaged in his or her task. The color palate is soft, based on the colors of the desert, and the effect is beautiful.
Please note: this book is a component of our Ancient Mythology Bundle.

Congressman proposes 2-year ban on bills regulating Internet
(CNN) - In an unusual step, a U.S. congressman is proposing a two-year ban on all new federal legislation regulating the Internet.
Rep. Darrell Issa, a Republican from California who has been an advocate for Internet freedoms, has posted online a draft of his legislation, the Internet American Moratorium Act of 2012. The bill would "create a two-year moratorium on any new laws, rules or regulations governing the Internet."
Issa first posted the complete text of the bill Monday on Project Madison, the nickname for a crowdsourcing platform that allows citizens to amend individual passages of legislation by adding or striking language. On Tuesday, he posted a link to the bill on Reddit, the social news site, where users quickly voted it to the top.
"Together, we can make Washington take a break from messing w/ the Internet," Issa said on Reddit, where he also invited users to suggest changes to the proposed bill. He said he will begin taking questions about it from Reddit users at 10:30 a.m. ET Wednesday.
Issa is one of the more tech-fluent members of Congress and was an outspoken critic of the Stop Online Piracy Act, which would have penalized websites that host pirated content. That bill died this year amid near-unanimous opposition from the technology industry.
Initial reaction on Reddit to his proposed moratorium was mixed. Some users were confused about what point Issa was trying to make, while others saw the move as a stunt.
"I have a problem with legislation that preemptively ties your hands for years at a time. You can't know what the internet or society will look like in six months, let alone two years, and making it harder to respond to emerging threats or opportunities is an abdication of your responsibilities as a member of Congress," wrote one Reddit user. "This just seems to me to be more cheap political theater, along the lines of Grover Norquist's 'We will never ever ever raise taxes for any reason' pledge."
"The answer is NOT to ban new regulation. We need regulation," another said. "But, I don't believe ANYBODY in Congress has the vocabulary, is intelligent in knowing how the internet or computers work, or has the foresight to put current trends and future technologies together in a context to create those new regulation that protect the internet and it's users/consumers."
Issa's Reddit post had drawn more than 900 comments by late Tuesday afternoon.
Leslie Horn, writing for Gizmodo, also dismissed Issa's idea.
"Open internet? That's a good thing. But a law that keeps congress from governing? That's not a good thing -- the internet is a big place, and the language of this law is very broad," she wrote. "As it stands now, IAMA is just a discussion draft, meaning it will be a very long time before it's even close to a vote. And while we're for an open internet, a blanket ban is a bad idea. Let's think about this one a little more, Rep. Issa."
Issa did not immediately respond to a request seeking comment Tuesday afternoon.

President Barack Obama's demand for research into gun violence could usher in a flood of data on the nation's 32,000 annual gun deaths after decades of an information blackout.
Scientists and policymakers say they have little scientific data about gun violence after Congress prohibited federal agencies, such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Institutes of Health, from offering research grants to study anything that could be used to promote gun control.
If Americans knew more about gun violence, they would take steps to end it, said Mark Glaze, director of ...

SOUTH KINGSTOWN – The South Kingstown School Department released a response to a public records request regarding legal fees Tuesday afternoon.
The school department provided a summary of legal fees for the past 15 fiscal years.
In the response, Dr. Kristen Stringfellow, superintendent of schools wrote, "The summary takes into account monthly legal fees (contractual), litigation, settlements, arbitration, etc. Certainly some years will show as heavily impacted if contract negotiations were either planned or implemented. Please keep in mind during the comparison that legal fee hourly rates were much lower in the earlier years. If we were to use equivalent dollars today on the 1997 legal rates they would be very much higher today for the same or even less work. Also, please keep in mind that there is a current state and federal context that directly impacts our current legal fees."

Margaret Susan and Paul Brian Brooks. / Submitted photo
Preliminary autopsy results show that a retired man and wife living near Table Rock Lake likely died from stab wounds and also had blunt force trauma.
Stone County Sheriff Doug Rader released the results today in the deaths of Paul Brian Brooks, 70, and Margaret Susan Brooks, 69. They were found just before 6 p.m. Thursday in a home where they were living 1722 Trace Hollow Road, near Lampe, 75 miles south of Springfield.
Two juveniles, Christopher Allen, 15, of Tennessee, and Anthony Zarro, 16, of Texas, are in custody in Greene County in connection with the deaths. The teens had been residents at a boys ranch about three miles from the Brooks home. They had run away from the ranch on Tuesday.
The family of the slain couple released a statement through the sheriffs office:
It is with great sadness and profound sorrow that we acknowledge the death of our parents, Brian and Susan Brooks. This was a senseless act of violence carried out upon a defenseless, loving couple. Their lives were tragically cut short a few months before their 50th wedding anniversary.
Yet in this truly difficult time, we see evidence of Gods abundant grace and have many things to be thankful for. We wish to thank the members of the Stone County Sheriffs Office, especially Sheriff Rader, for the kindness and compassion shown to our family. We appreciate the professionalism and attention to detail of this department, that of Prosecutor Matt Selby, and Coroner Rick Stumpff, to ensure that the individuals that have committed these crimes are prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
We wish to thank the heroes that choose to remain nameless, but to whom we will be forever indebted, for calling the authorities and apprehending the suspects. We can never say thank you enough. Last but not least, we wish to thank the tremendous outpouring of love and kindness by each of our communities scattered about the country.
Your expressions of kindness are too numerous to mention but confirm for us the importance of relationships and community. We are humbled and blessed.

How To Write Effective SEO Copy
SEO copywriting can be viewed as one of those skills that can take your website higher in the search engines. We want to discuss this more and offer some helpful tips so you can see better rankings.
How does a writer produce good SEO copywriting? The reason why many people fail at creating effective SEO copy is because they don't focus on the content and rather look at other factors. You need to have content that is compelling and good so your readers will actually want to continue reading the material. The life blood of search engines is user satisfaction, so they really only want to rank content that is of good quality and useful. If you provide the highest quality content, then some websites may want to link to you on their own. Your website must either have something extremely interesting, funny, or otherwise very informative for this to happen, though.

TAIPEI — The Northrop Grumman Corporation is pushing the latest variant of the "Advanced Hawkeye" airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft for the Malaysian air force at this year's biennial Langkawi International Maritime & Aerospace (LIMA) Exhibition.
Malaysia is among the first countries for which the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye has been approved by the U.S. government. LIMA 2013 is being held on Langkawi Island, Malaysia, March 26-30.
The E-2D exhibit includes the E-2D workstation, but no aircraft was on display this year. "We've got the E-2D Tactical Work Station in the exhibit which is a demonstrator of the operator's workstation in the back and shows the radar images up on large displays," said Kirsti Dunn, sector communications, Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems.
To date, Northrop Grumman has delivered nine E-2D Advanced Hawkeye aircraft to the U.S. Navy. The program completed Initial Operational Test and Evaluation in 2012, resulting in an operationally suitable and effective rating, and is on track for initial operational capability in the U.S. Navy fleet in 2015.
Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capability is critical to maintaining national sovereignty, said Mary Petryszyn, vice president, international, Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems. "Northrop Grumman's leadership in multiple-domain ISR strongly positions us to provide effective solutions for Malaysia's defense modernization."
The E-2D Advanced Hawkeye program couples a newly designed electronically scanned radar with a matching suite of sensors, avionics, processors, software and displays to provide the most technologically advanced AEW command and control capability available worldwide, a March 26 press release said.
Lockheed Martin's new AN/APY-9 radar is the "backbone of this aircraft and provides greater flexibility and significantly improved detection and tracking over all terrains."

Eight tips on picking a college
Dream a little (but not a lot): Even if money is tight, think about what you want out of college. Do you want to be an academic at Harvard, an airline pilot or a welder? Are fraternity parties and 2 a.m. pizza runs important to you?
Calculate how much debt you can afford: Your tolerance for student loans will be different if youre aiming to be an engineer or a second-grade teacher. Some experts recommend total debt not more than your expected first-year salary. A $50,000 student loan for 10 years at 6.8 percent? That will cost you $575.40 a month after you graduate. Check out the debt levels and loan default rates at your favorite colleges.
Find the total cost of attendance: Tuition is only part of the cost. Colleges are required to disclose a total cost that includes housing, meals and fees. At the University of Cincinnati, for example, one years tuition for Ohio residents is $10,784. Total cost of attendance, depending on the program, tops $23,000.
Apply for scholarships early and often: Particularly at private colleges, scholarship money is out there for the taking. Use your high-school guidance counselor, the college financial aid office, the Cincinnati Scholarship Foundation and online resources including www.FinAid.com and www.CollegeBoard.org.
Think about the future: Match your own career aspirations against a universitys strengths. At the University of Cincinnati, that could mean industrial design or engineering or musical theater. At Northern Kentucky University, it could mean data science. Connections with employers in your field of study could give you a head start on a career.
Consider a two-year option: Both Cincinnati State and Gateway have strengthened pathways to four-year colleges. You can save up to 40 percent by spending the first two years at a community college, or a regional campus of a big university.
Ask for help: Going to college is stressful for even the most organized student. Dont try to do it yourself.
Trust your gut: Visit a campus before you commit. If it feels right to you, maybe it is. Eat in the dining hall, walk through the library after dinner, sit in on a class.
A $1.5 billion annual investment by families and taxpayers in the regions colleges and universities has yielded sprawling campuses and cutting-edge research.
But has it helped students get the education and the jobs they need?
An Enquirer review of key college metrics shows that graduation rates are improving but still too low at some public universities and small private colleges. Both costs and student debt continue to increase, and private colleges are forced to pay millions in scholarships to get students on campus.
From the giant medical school and urban identity of the University of Cincinnati to the leafy campus at Miami University to the manufacturing skills programs at Cincinnati State and Gateway community colleges, more than 10,000 new students go to college here every year.
They all seem to want two things: relief from higher college costs and higher college debt, and training for a good job after graduation.
Strengths and weaknesses local colleges face
I like the idea that some of the schools on my list are selective, said Jeremy Sweet, a senior at Dixie Heights High School in Edgewood. Then I talked to my parents and they said, A degrees a degree and it just depends on how much youre willing to pay for it.
The obsession with getting a return on college costs has permeated higher education in the last decade. The Great Recession put even more financial pressure on the industry than at any time in its 200-year history.
The pressure is there because college tuition has more than doubled in 30 years and student-loan debt now tops $1 trillion and is nearly 9 percent of all consumer debt.
I believe that if the status quo reigns in higher education, over time it will crumble, Ohio Gov. John Kasich told university leaders this fall. It costs too darn much to go to school.
Those with a four-year degree earn roughly $1 million more than those with no college training over a career.
Colleges insist that they provide skills to students that are impossible to quantify. Most importantly, they say, the critical thinking skills, teamwork and values acquired in college cannot be replicated by work experience.
Yet the economic landscape is changing so rapidly that some economists believe those shifts could spread beyond education and disrupt the national economy. They see the college bubble as being akin to the technology crisis of the 1990s and the housing bubble of the late 2000s.
If the college bubble bursts, all but the most established public universities and elite private colleges could be at risk of failing. So colleges must perform, both academically and financially.
Graduation rates, loan debt are important measures
The financial pressure is being met with equal political pressure. From President Barack Obama down, the public is demanding numbers to document how universities are justifying their public investment and serving the students in their region.
The Enquirer review of the universities in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky shows:
Graduation rates are improving but still are at startling lows at some universities. At Northern Kentucky University, for example, only 37 percent of the full-time students who enrolled in 2006 graduated by 2012. The University of Cincinnatis rate has increased to 62 percent and continues to improve, and Miami University topped the graduation-rate list at 80 percent.
Student loan debt has reached dangerous levels and continues to increase. Graduates who borrow their way through UC and Miami owed more than $27,000. At the College of Mount St. Joseph, average student debt tops $40,000. NKU posted the lowest average debt in this region at $18,882.
Private colleges are literally buying students: Xavier University, the Mount and Thomas More College each provide average scholarships of more than $11,000 a year,discounting tuition by 40 percent or more.
Community colleges are less expensive and provide direct training for lots of technical jobs, but fewer students graduate and more default on loans. At Cincinnati State and Gateway, as many as one-quarter default within three years.
No college has kept total costs from increasing the last three years. The increase in total costs ranged from 6.4 percent at Miami to 13.8 percent at NKU, both higher than the regions inflation rate, according to federal data.
Profitable big-time sports helps. Ohio State University and the University of Kentucky, two of the most valuable brands in college sports, were able to keep debt, defaults and total costs lower than other universities.
Measuring how well the colleges are doing is tricky. Despite a panoply of return-on-investment ratings that chart average salaries after a certain number of years, statistics that link college to careers in a chosen field make it difficult to compare institutions or even individual programs.
UC and NKU have been ranked high for return on investment, and Miami just was ranked among the nations most efficient universities by U.S. News & World Report.
Even graduation rates are skewed. The official six-year numbers only count full-time students who start as freshman, so part-time students who work and transfers are not reflected. That punishes schools like NKU, with a large number of commuting students.
Student's feeling a real factor in deciding where to go
Metrics arent everything in comparing colleges or picking one. Gut feeling also is critical, with counselors advising personal trips to campus.
When a kid walks onto a campus, within 10 seconds the kid will say, This is where I want to be, said Bill Kellerman, a private consultant from West Chester who advises high-school students on their college choices. It happens over and over and over.
Henry Williams of West Chester has applied to Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio. He said he hasnt looked much at numbers, but a trip to campus convinced him.
I really like their emphasis on community and really like that every third quarter you get to go up to the co-op program and just do your own thing, said Williams, a senior at Lakota East High School. I thought it was a nice-looking campus and I really enjoyed it. I liked that their whole campus was powered by solar and geo power. It was all really cool.
Sweets criteria were more precise. The Dixie High student wants to play soccer and study either accounting or nursing. Hes looking at NKU, the Mount and Thomas More and hopes to get scholarships to cover most of the cost.
With my grades and my ACT, I can get a lot of it knocked off (at the private colleges) so its about the same as NKU, Sweet said.
Amenities are expensive, but colleges feel demand
Despite continuing tuition increases, colleges insist that they have limited spending. They say the actual cost to educate a student is far more than the tuition and taxpayer subsidies they collect.
NKU, for example, spends $16,711 per student, according to the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education. Thats about double annual tuition, but less than half of some of the bigger universities with medical schools to support.
NKU President Geoff Mearns said spending per student has been flat the past several years, adjusted for inflation. But NKU also spent $34 million five years ago on a student union equipped with video games in a lounge. Students are paying for it through fees.
Miamis $50 million Armstrong Student Center will open in late January, financed by students and private donors, and UC is spending $86 million to renovate Nippert Stadium, with donors and ticket buyers picking up the cost.
Students and families are demanding those amenities, college officials say, rather than asking them about graduation rates or default rates.
But high prices and a depressed economy have made those metrics matter more, said John Beischel, college and career counselor at Princeton High School.
He advises students to look at graduation rates and retention rates from freshman to sophomore year. Those tell me a little bit about how well theyre selecting the student theyre admitting and how well theyre taking care of them once they are there, Beischel said.
Ed Hughes, president of Gateway Community & Technical College in Northern Kentucky, said evaluating college options is a bit of a science and a bit of an art.
Young folks typically use college to explore, he said. Things like campus life are important to them, but thats expensive. Older students generally come to college with specific goals. They pretty much know why theyre there.
Hughes advises students to focus on a career cluster such as manufacturing, aerospace or foreign languages.
Its fine to be a philosopher, but there are (economic) consequences to that, he said. Whats the value of that, and what are you willing to pay for it? And then you do the math. ⬛

Farm-state lawmakers were pushing for final passage of the massive, five-year farm bill that headed to the House floor Wednesday.
- Filed Under
House lawmakers overwhelmingly approved a long-awaited five-year farm bill Wednesday that will end direct payments and expand popular crop insurance programs while cutting spending on food stamps used by millions of Americans.
Passage of the legislation in the House, by a 251-166 vote, is a major step forward in what has been an arduous process of writing a farm bill. For nearly two years, the legislation has sharply divided lawmakers, resulting in stalled negotiations that left farmers and ranchers in rural America in a lurch and cast a doubt over the future of agriculture policy in ...

Rev. Edward Belczak
The FBI has taken over a criminal investigation into whether a popular Catholic priest in Troy embezzled more than $400,000 from his church.
Troy police had been leading the investigation into the Rev. Edward Belczak, 67, who was the pastor at St. Thomas More Parish in Troy for almost 30 years before the Archdiocese of Detroit removed him in January amid questions of financial improprieties.
But a few weeks ago, "the FBI came in and took over," Troy Police Sgt. Andy Breidenich said Wednesday. Troy police still will handle the health care fraud part of the investigation, Breidenich said. ...

Jaden Smith starred in Columbia Pictures' 'After Earth' alongside his father, Will Smith. Military Times movie reviewer Chuck Vinch calls the film the worst of the summer's apocalyptic movies. (Sony Pictures)
Best to worst
One movie fans rankings are another movie fans TP, but just for funsies, heres how I would stack this years apocalyptic horse race in terms of pure entertainment value:
1. Elysium
2. This is the End
3. World War Z
4. The Worlds End
5. Oblivion
6. Pacific Rim
7. After Earth
Doomsayers have been predicting the end of the world for several millenniums now. In the summer of 2013, Hollywood got in on that act in a big way. This was truly an apocalyptic summer season, with no fewer than seven films sporting an end of the world theme of one shade or another.
The list is as eclectic as it is long: Tom Cruises sleek Oblivion; Will Smiths father-son vanity bomb After Earth; the raucous and raunchy buddy flick This is the End; an epic pub crawl amid alien invasion in The Worlds End; the global pandemic of World War Z; the sci-fi whackfest of Pacific Rim; the vicious class warfare of Elysium.
Of course, some worked better than others. Cruise, first out of the gate, was serviceable, then Smiths misfire came and went with hardly a peep. World War Z and This is the End delivered the goods, Pacific Rim was so-so, and The Worlds End and Elysium were two of the best coming near the tail end of the season. All had their apocalyptic moments, and here are some that stand out:
Freakiest apocalyptic moment. When the zombies of World War Z storm the 50-foot barrier in Israel, scrambling over each other like hyperactive ants and pouring up the wall.
Best tech. Oblivion, cool and sleek.
Most impenetrable accent. Jodie Foster, Elysium.
Most tone-deaf nepotism. Will Smith, for casting his not-ready-for-prime-time son in the lead role in After Earth, then sitting his own character on his butt for the entire flick.
Best broheim moment. The raging verbal warfare waged by James Franco and Danny McBride over some stuck-together pages in one of Francos favorite back issues of Penthouse in This is the End. This way-quirky flick also took the prize for sheer number of broheim moments.
Commander youd most follow into battle. Idris Elba, Pacific Rim. Elba also gets the nod for best apocalyptic character name of Summer 13: Stacker Pentecost.
Grandest vision, realized. Writer-director Neill Blomkamp, Elysium.
Grandest vision, unrealized. Will Smith and M. Night Shyamalan, After Earth.
Best line. Were going to see this through to the bitter end. Or lager end. Gary King (Simon Pegg), The Worlds End.
Second-best line. We can either sit here and do nothing or grab those flare guns and do something really stupid. Herc Hansen (Max Martini), Pacific Rim.
Most ironic line. Today, we are canceling the apocalypse! Stacker Pentecost, Pacific Rim. And that is unlikely, as long as the studios continue to see cash in trashing old Mother Earth.
Best cameo. This is the End had the two best cameos among these films: Michael Cera completely torching his image by playing a foul-mouthed, coke-snorting party perv, and Emma Watson as an angry end-times survivor who wields an ax against James Franco and his nitwit buddies, which leads to this immortal line from McBride: I think Hermione just stole our stuff.
Tensest moment. The scene near the end of World War Z when Brad Pitt is in the lab trying to remain soundless as a zombie gnashes his teeth on the other side of a glass door.
Hit of the summer. The coolly realized production design of Elysium. Yes, the story teetered a bit, but Neill Blomkamp is a guy with a vision.
Miss of the summer. After Earth, which cost a fortune to create but couldnt pull more than $60.5 million at the domestic box office, is already going down as a misfire of Ishtar-like proportions.

Orange County Fire Authority firefighter Rick Boman checks the heat of ashes of a burned cabin Thursday, Jan. 2, 2014, near Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif. More wildfires are possible in Southern California this week due to the dry, hot Santa Ana winds. / Jebb Harris, AP
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Red flag warnings for fire danger are posted for much of Southern California as dry and gusty Santa Ana winds blow through the region.
The National Weather Service says northeasterly gusts up to 60 mph are possible Monday in the San Gabriel and Santa Monica mountains. A high-wind warning is in effect until noon Wednesday.
Drivers are urged to use caution navigating mountain passes.
A red flag warning denoting a risk of wildfire will be in effect until 6 p.m. Wednesday in mountains and forests, most valley areas and the Los Angeles coastal zone.
The Santa Anas are being generated by strong surface high pressure anchored over the Great Basin, which is is bringing the strong, northeasterly winds into Southern California.
Temperatures are expected to be mostly in the 60s and 70s, with some areas topping out in the low 80s.
California is enduring a record dry spell; the state just went through its driest calendar year on record. Despite it being the rainy season in Southern California, it has not rained in many areas since Dec. 19th, nearly a month ago, according to AccuWeather. Los Angeles has only received 22% of the normal rainfall since last January.
"Southern California needs rain and it needs rain badly," AccuWeather western weather expert Ken Clark said.
As of the most recent U.S. Drought Monitor, a federal website that tracks drought across the country, 94.25% of the state of California was in a drought.
More than 27% of the state is enduring "extreme" drought conditions, the highest percentage since 2007.

| What Is the Scientific Evidence for Manganese?

| Interactions You Should Know About
Our bodies contain only a very small amount of manganese, but this metal is important as a constituent of many key enzymes. The chemical structure of these enzymes is interesting: large protein molecules cluster around a tiny atom of metal.
Manganese plays a particularly important role as part of the natural antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), which helps fight damaging free radicals. It also helps energy metabolism, thyroid function, blood sugar control, and normal skeletal growth.
The official US recommendations for daily intake of manganese are as follows:
The absorption of manganese may be impaired by simultaneous intake of antacids or calcium or iron supplements.
The best sources of dietary manganese are whole grains, legumes, avocados, grape juice, chocolate, seaweed, egg yolks, nuts, seeds, boysenberries, blueberries, pineapples, spinach, collard greens, peas, and green vegetables.
A typical dosage used in studies on manganese is 3 to 6 mg daily. It is sometimes recommended at a much higher dose of 50 to 200 mg daily for 2 weeks following a muscle sprain or strain, but this dosage exceeds recommended safe intake levels (see Safety Issues).
Because manganese plays a role in bone metabolism, it has been suggested as a treatment for
, a condition in which bone mass deteriorates with age. However, we have no direct evidence that manganese is helpful, except perhaps in combination with other minerals.
One small but rigorous study suggests that making sure to get enough manganese may help control symptoms of
dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain)
Manganese has also been suggested for the treatment of
muscle strains and sprains
rheumatoid arthritis
, and
tardive dyskinesia
but there is no reliable evidence as yet to indicate that it actually helps.
People with
have lower-than-normal levels of manganese in their blood.
This suggests (but definitely doesn't prove) that manganese supplements might be useful for these conditions. Unfortunately, the studies that could prove or disprove this idea haven't been performed.
Although manganese is known to play a role in bone metabolism, there is no direct evidence that manganese supplements can help prevent
. However, one
double-blind placebo-controlled study
suggests that a combination of minerals including manganese may be helpful.
Fifty-nine women took either placebo,
(1,000 mg daily), or calcium plus a daily mineral supplement consisting of 5 mg of manganese, 15 mg of zinc, and 2.5 mg of copper. After 2 years, the group receiving calcium plus minerals showed better bone density than the group receiving calcium alone. But this study doesn't tell us whether it was the manganese or the other minerals that made the difference.
One very small, but well-designed and carefully conducted double-blind study suggested that 5.6 mg of manganese daily might ease
menstrual discomfort
In the same study, a lower dosage of 1 mg daily
Manganese is thought to be safe when taken by adults at a dose of 11 mg daily or less. The maximum safe dosage of manganese for pregnant or nursing women has also been established as 11 mg daily, or 9 mg if 18 years old or younger.
Very high exposure to manganese (due either to environmental pollution or manganese mining) has resulted in a serious psychiatric disorder known as "manganese madness."
