UCLA looks for right mix at linebacker
LOS ANGELES – Linebackers coach Clark Lea said his top two priorities are identifying UCLA's three best linebackers, and who's best at each position. In that order.
Now here's the biggest challenge: Lea's two best options from 2010 aren't available. With Akeem Ayers gone to the NFL and junior Patrick Larimore out because of a shoulder injury, the Bruins have spent the past three weeks mixing and matching.
Jordan Zumwalt, as he was for the final third of last season, has been the man in the middle. The Edison High product said it is ideally where he would play. Just don't expect to see him there when fall practice begins.
"When you draw up the Mike (middle) linebacker, in terms of demeanor and playing physical football, in a lot for ways you draw up Patrick," Lea said. "He has a presence."
The 6-3, 253-pound Larimore was having an all-conference type season before dislocating his shoulder last October. He's expected to make a full recovery by summer. While Lea said he's not shutting the door on Zumwalt playing inside in the fall, he forewarned the 6-4, 230-pound sophomore to keep an eye on the strongside and has given him occasional reps there this spring.
"If Zumwalt doesn't take to an outside position, or we can't find the right mix, (Larimore) is smart enough and physically gifted enough to (play strong-side)," Lea said. "We'll get the best three on the field any way we can."
The weakside is still occupied by reliable senior Sean Westgate, who figures to be the starter when the season begins. Pushing Zumwalt in the middle is third-year sophomore Isaiah Bowens, whom teammates have called one of the more improved players from last season.
Then there's Eric Kendricks, who has been splitting reps at both outside positions and taking first-team snaps at strongside away from senior Glenn Love.
The 6-1, 226-pound redshirt freshman is a darkhorse candidate to start this season.
"He's just a humble worker," Lea said.
Safety Tony Dye participated in individual drills Tuesday for the first time since suffering a mild knee sprain April 9. He said he will not play in Saturday's spring game. ... Offensive lineman Wade Yandall suffered a concussion during Tuesday's practice. He is one of at least three offensive linemen unavailable for Saturday. Center Kai Maiava (ankle), who has been limited the past three practices, is questionable. ... UCLA will have a closed walkthrough Thursday. Saturday's scrimmage will be on campus at Drake Stadium at 5 p.m. and is free to the public.

Several times we have commented on the transportation names, both for their own investment merits and as an indicator of overall economic activity. Since anything sold from any store is transported there by truck, a slowdown in trucking means stores are seeing no need to stock up. Barry Ritholtz makes that point when discussing the latest American Trucking Association tonnage data at The Big Picture.
November 2006 marked the single worst month for for-hire truck tonnage since the last recession," said ATA Chief Economist Bob Costello. "Both the month-to-month and year-over-year decreases indicate that the economic slowdown is in full gear. The most troubling number is the 8.8 percent contraction from November 2005, despite the fact that year-over-year comparisons are difficult due to the very robust volumes during the same month last year. One month certainly doesn't make a trend, but if we continue to see year-over-year reductions of similar magnitudes in the next couple of months, it could indicate a greater economic slowdown than economists are projecting at this point."
Naturally, a tonnage slowdown is bad news for truckers. Investors who are into the relative game can play the non-asset based names like Landstar (NASDAQ:LSTR) and CH Robinson (NASDAQ:CHRW). Those who simply prefer positive absolute returns may want to steer clear of the whole group.

In my San Francisco hotel room last week (business not pleasure) I reject the movie channels to watch those which have adverts. Forget Practical Magic and other new releases, I'm glued to the drug adverts.
For a start, the US has a more gloves-off approach. It's legitimate to slag off your competitors by mentioning the side-effects of their drugs (theirs irritates the stomach, for example, while yours wouldn't harm a baby's bottom) as well as claiming that the best doctors and hospitals only use your product.
Although the Food and Drugs Administration bans drug companies from saying their medicines may have benefits beyond their main use, many manufacturers do it anyway. They can't say their product, containing aspirin, can reduce the risk of a repeat heart attack, but they can show a heart monitor graphic at the right moment.
But all this is nothing compared to the fact that drug companies can advertise prescription-only drugs to everyone. In the UK they can only advertise to doctors and the advert (usually showing an attractive woman lying down, whatever the drug) has to be printed with its prescribing information, a long screed in small print that not only details the dose, but also side-effects and warnings. Some doctors comb through medical journals to check claims - one drug company was recently taken to task for claiming its medicine had 'proven benefit' when studies had shown it was probably effective but not quite of proven worth.
In the US, however, drug companies have long been allowed to advertise in any magazine or newspaper as long as they include the prescribing information, whether or not it was intelligible to general readers. The motivation is obviously to get patients to badger their doctors.
Until atwo ago companies were less keen to advertise on TV because of FDA restrictions which said they had to carry the whole prescribing information, or make only vague statements. So an advert for a tablet that improves urine flow in elderly men with enlarged prostates, for example, could only say something like: 'There's some good news if you have a blockage in your prostate.' Pause. 'Ask your doctor.'
Which could be hit and miss, as the doctor may then recommend a competitor's product. Many adverts were even less explicit. One for hayfever medication had a women skipping through a sunny field with the voiceover: 'At last a clear day is here. Ask your doctor.' Women with everything from acne to gynaecological complaints did just that.
But the FDA has changed its policy. Companies must now give a balanced account of benefits and risks, and provide easy access (a free phone number or Internet address) to more detailed information. The drug that alluded to a clear day had its advert promptly updated. The named drug could, it said, offer 24-hour relief from allergy. The FDA promptly censured it for unbalanced information. It's hard to get the balance right.
Consumer groups are generally in favour of the right to advertise in this way. They say the adverts are educational, as doctors don't always know what's available. Patient demand certainly contributed to the success of Prozac and Viagra, both heavily promoted. Indeed, consumer snitching about Prozac to the authorities instigated an investigation into Health Maintenance Organisations in California.
Basically HMOs offer a prepaid service, in which there's a fixed sum of money to cover the needs of their patients. They aim to keep costs down while maintaining quality, so theoretically would limit patients to the cheapest 'effective' treatments.
In California the HMOs are being accused by consumers of refusing to prescribe certain drugs, among them Prozac. Consumers are in no doubt that Prozac is worth keeping on any hospital list of prescribable drugs - because they've seen the adverts. And therefore it will probably be cheaper and more effective to just let them have it.

The lights moved from left to right and the shadows ran the opposite way through the slats in the linen cupboard door. The towels were soft but at the same time scratchy meaning they were getting close to being at the end of their life. "What the hell and I thinking about towels for" I said softly to myself. The smell of detergent and fabric softener strong on my senses, as I dared to peer out between the slats to see what was going on. Only a millimetre of two but I could still make out shapes. Oh shit they are coming again. This is the third night in a row, what can I do I'm just a fifteen year old girl in her jammies for god sake, GOD! Where are you now? I thought this was crap I had to endure dads Carls Sagan DVD's and the crop circles and all that guff only to now be one of the believers. Shit Mum! Where are you going, Dad stop her I said to myself but then saw him following right behind her. Noise from my bedroom, oh fuck its looking for me, shhhh gotta be quiet, if he hears me thinking I'm stuffed. Oh no Jeremy, not Jeremy he's only seven leave him alone. I started to cry and my eyes filled with warm salty fluids that trailed down to my top lip. I tasted my own fear as I watched them walk slowly to the front door and out into the never yet again. More noise from my room, doors slamming, my bed now a mess on the floor, I can hear my clothes being thrown all over my room, Shhhhhh quiet it stopped and its searching the house, oh shit it's looking for me, I can hear it chattering like an old typewriter clanging out letters and then a faint gurgle in reply, theirs two of them. I sneak a look once more, lights moving, horrible greenish yellow lights that if you look for too long hurts your eyes. My hand slowly moves to my side to try and move back further in the closet but there is no room, knitting needles mums old aluminium knitting needles are now under my palm the cool metal feels somewhat comforting as I think of that old red sweater she made me when I was six I fucking loved that thing. The door flew open and all I could see was a huge bulbous, well what had to be a head I gather in front of me humanoid features just like the shows dad made me watch and a small slit where the mouth was, I froze my spine cold as ice fear gripped me and then thank Christ the human survival instinct kicked in flee or fight, my right hand grasped those knitting needles and before I even realised it they were sticking out of the things huge left eye and it collapsed, I ran as fast as my jelly legs could carry me, the front is covered, the back door, run, run, oh fuck its locked, hide, No RUN! The laundry window is open, run, I get the window open half way out, freedom, run, oh shit!
I awoke on a cold table naked trapped held in place by some force I can't explain, they looked at me three of them tall strange looking things wearing something that could be a tight fitting suit, maybe, a protrusion from the things foreheads wiggling like a worm, antennae maybe, oh fuck get away from there that's not for anyone, pain oh shit I can feel the warmth as I piss myself as they insert something into me, it's cold and its moving tears streaming down my face, I black out.
My room is in that tepid state of morning light when you just see the sun pierce through the new morns clouds. My stomach hurts and I think I need to puke, I get up make my way to the toilet, ah that's not right, I look down blood, I only just finished two weeks ago I thought to myself. "Mum can you get me some pads please?" A flash as I went cold something hit me in my mind's eye a figure, cold, nasty. I felt my abdomen as the pain hit me again, I held the area just above the pubic bone and my body trembled with cold fear as I felt it move inside me!

Thats damn awesome, I love the reference to tears through this, also that the main pissed themselves.
Makes it seem real.
Fucking Rocks, dude! My favorite line is the character pissing themself. I found this piece to be an adrenaline rush start to finish. It was quick, but time flies in survival situations. I also found the end quite diabolical. It would be a fascinating delivery. Mom...Dad...I am pregnant for a frakin' alien. I loved this. I am still smiling...Maybe I should bring the pirate snowman back, so he can smile too!
I am with you buddy and I might just turn this into a longer short story yet I am not sure, yes it hectic and paced and iots kust as it flowed from my mind to my fingers no fix ups no nothing I loved writing it because it felt so easy, but bring back the pirate snowman dude in "PS2 the BIG MELT"!
Really good but twisted as hell!
maybe i am just to old for this but well written anyways
Ahhh, I've missed your writing Graeme. There's nothing like the feeling of an alien parasitic baby moving inside you to jump start your morning. Great write.
Excellent! I love the bizarre!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Perfect Gift My 14yr daughter asked for a rebounder for Christmas. She is very happy with this one. She set it up herself in the backyard without difficulty. My husband needed to get two sand bags to hold it in place. She has been using it every day.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Sporty girls from Fun My 11 yo daughter really enjoys using this. It took some engineering to get it to stake well into the ground. She was frustrated at first because it kept lifting and/or falling over. This is the only one I could find for a soccer player in their own backyard, so it will have to do.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from minutes to Setup, hours of fun I was able to set the rebounder up in just under 15 minutes, which allowed my children to spend a majority of Christmas day enjoying thier present. My 4 and 7 year old love playing soccer in the basement and it is good exercise for me too! If you have children who want to get better at soccer, this is a great product. It will help them with trapping, passing, and shooting skills.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Beginners Only I got this rebounder for my 10 year old son who plays travel ball. Anchors provided will not hold it on the ground, I had to use large tent anchors with tie downs to keep it in place. Shortly there after, now that it is more steady, the force of his shots has ripped the netting. No substitute for a solid brick wall and a cheap ball. Might be fine for the beginner but not more experienced, skilled players.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Well Constructed-Easy to Assemble My son and I are novice soccer players; he's 19 and I'm in my mid-50s. We trying turf Futsal this winter and we needed to practice with a heavier ball and unfortunately outdoors. The product is well construted-machining and powder coating are flawless. The metal tubes fits perfectly. A little better instructions on which direction to face bungee hooks-guessed the wrong way and had to reverse all 36 of them-haha. The net and frame could take hard shots without any problem, but I suggest that it shoud be achored with cement bags to keep it from moving-we're using the rebounder on concrete. Made in Colorado, I think, great price-what else can you ask for.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Soccer Dad from Great for back yard practice Upon arrival, immediately and easily assembled by our son (highschool and club soccer player). Surprisingly sturdy for a Franklin product. Perfect for practicing in the back yard. SUPERB value.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Soccer granny from Great experience and product! This was just what my daughter and her son wanted so that he can keep his skills sharp during off season. He is 11 and plays on a competitive league. He said the kickback function is almost like playing with someone else. He loves it!

According to Michael Ferguson's latest audit, the Army Reserve is clearly lacking "clear guidance on preparing for international missions, had lower levels of training as cohesive teams, and had not fully integrated this training with that of the Regular Army." Adding to that, the number of reservists is lower than needed and are not fully prepared to deploy when required.
A little over a decade ago, Canada -- under Paul Martin's Liberals -- rejected taking part in the United States Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) system along its U.S. counterpart. The Canadian government is currently reviewing its defence policy, including the possibility to reconsider its position on their participation to the U.S. BMD system.
The Liberals promised a "leaner, more agile" military, raising concerns over the size of the military. With our current commitment and the promised renewal of UN peacekeeping missions, Canadian soldiers will not be able to sustain such a high operational tempo, let alone if we slash our military numbers.
The Conservative government's approach to countering the Islamic State (ISIS) threat was a three-pillared plan that combined allied military action, alongside direct foreign aid, and support for refugees and the dislocated in the region. In many ways, the plan brought to the last Parliament by the Conservatives was consistent with the Pearsonian worldview that Canada has a duty to take collective action with our friends to advance liberty for others and provide security at home.

The Culinary Institute of America presents Vegetables, a comprehensive single-subject cookbook, with recipes like Lemon-Infused Greek Salad with Grape Leaves , Mixed Grill of Garden Vegetables with Charmoula, and Tomato Sampler with Pan-Fried Calamari.
Serves 4
Some farm stands offer baskets of an assortment of tomato varieties with colors that range from a brilliant yellow to a deep dusky maroon that is almost black. We especially enjoy the contrast of hot, crunchy pan-fried calamari against the juicy tomatoes.
Cut the squid's body into thin rings approximately 1/8-inch thick. Rinse the rings and tentacles thoroughly in cold water, then blot dry on absorbent toweling.
Combine the flour, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper in a large plate or pan. Pour milk into a shallow bowl.
Add the oil to a skillet (there should be about 1/4-inch covering the bottom) and preheat the oil over medium-high heat.
Dip the squid rings and tentacles into the milk first and then in the seasoned flour, turning to coat evenly. Immediately lower the coated calamari into the hot oil. Cook, turning the pieces occasionally, until the squid is golden brown on all sides, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the calamari from the oil and drain briefly on absorbent toweling.
Toss together the arugula and frisée with the vinaigrette and mound the dressed greens on a serving platter or individual plates. Add the tomatoes to the vinaigrette remaining in the bowl and very gently toss to coat. Top the greens with the tomatoes and calamari. Serve at once.
Makes 2 cups
There are different grades of balsamic vinegar. Save the rich, syrupy, authentic balsamic to savor in small droplets as a dressing for perfect strawberries or a slice of melon, and use a less expensive variety for this salad dressing. Balsamic vinegar has a bold flavor and a dark color, so we've blended it with a bit of red wine vinegar.
Whisk together the vinegars, mustard, about 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Gradually whisk in the oil until it is all incorporated and the vinaigrette is smooth and lightly thickened (as the vinaigrette sits, it will start to separate). Season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Just before serving, whisk the vinaigrette to recombine the oil and vinegars. Check the seasoning again and add the herbs, if using.

Manchester Arena, formerly known as the Manchester Evening News Arena, is an indoor events venue that was originally built in 1993. It is located in close proximity to Manchester City Centre and is one of the largest indoor venues in Europe. Hosting a wide variety of music, sporting, and comedy events, it sees some of the world's most famous entertainers and sportsmen perform on an almost daily basis.
Manchester Victoria railway station is located a short walk from the stadium and provides transport links to multiple areas in the North West and has Metrolink connections to Manchester Piccadilly, which has services running to virtually every region of the UK. There is parking located around the stadium, but they can fill quickly as over 20,000 visitors can be expected at any event.

There is an incredible amount to see and do in Manchester, including food and drinks, museums, art galleries and other attractions. The National Football museum is located just five minutes from Manchester Arena, and The Printworks is equally close, filled with restaurants, bars and a cinema. The Northern Quarter is also close by and an excellent way to make the most out of any visit to Manchester Arena.

Anybody else missing Obama already?
Prez Donald's our national bane;
We must brace to be plunged down the drain.
Though I'd rather not whine,
I just can't help but pine
For a man in the Oval who's sane.
Anybody else missing Obama already?
Prez Donald's our national bane;
We must brace to be plunged down the drain.
Though I'd rather not whine,
I just can't help but pine
For a man in the Oval who's sane.
Trump supporters have made this demand:
"Respect Trump as the prez of our land."
Yes give Donald his due:
That same "honor" he threw
At Barack — just deserts for Trump's brand.
Prez Obama, the way they've behaved
Means the Senate has tacitly waived
Its advice/consent right
Re Judge Garland, so fight
And appoint him. That seat can be saved.
Sure the Senate will probably sue
And deem it some sort of a coup.
But it's still wise to try,
Cuz the courts may just buy
Your contention. It's worth the ado.
Trump's speeches are vile and bombastic,
With fantastical falsehoods so drastic,
That he crosses the line,
Which for Trump is just fine.
His defense? "I was being sarcastic."
I laughed out loud when I heard about Sen. Orrin Hatch's Deseret News op-ed, reporting the results of a meeting with Chief Judge Merrick Garland that had yet to take place:
"Like many of my Senate colleagues, I recently met with Chief Judge Merrick Garland, President Obama's nominee to the Supreme Court. … Our meeting, however, does not change my conviction that the Senate should consider a Supreme Court nominee after this presidential election cycle," Hatch wrote in an op-ed published on the website of the Deseret News early Thursday morning and later removed. It remains available in a Google database.
Dear Orrin, it isn't a race
To report on a meeting you'll face.
And it's best not to claim
It did NOT change your game
When that meeting has yet to take place.
Dear Mitch, you must stop the obstruction
And your anti-Obama production.
A new Justice is needed.
It's time that you heeded
Your duties. You MUST all this muck shun.
Conservatives, bummed and bereft,
Due to Donald Trump's poll number heft,
After searching their brains
To explain his huge gains,
Found the cause: It's Barack and the Left!
You'll never guess who is to blame
For the rise of The Donald. This claim
By Ms. Noonan is mad:
Seems Obama's the lad
Who's at fault. "Pundit" dame has no shame.
House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy is so eager to become Speaker, he's been making all sorts of promises to Republican party extremists:
Sounding stubbornly tough's a no-brainer
When campaigning for Speaker, post-Boehner.
You must promise to hew
To each wingnutty view,
And from compromise be an abstainer.
That's the tack that McCarthy has taken.
No concessions! No deals! He's unshaken!
He'll be tough on Obama,
Squash "squishes" with drama.
So if Kev gets that gig, hope's forsaken.
Forty-seven Republican Senators have done something both appalling and unprecedented: They communicated directly with Iran in order to undermine Obama's nuclear arms negotiations.
Now it's one thing to try to convince Obama that Iran can't be trusted to comply with a nuclear arms deal, or to try to impede an arms deal legislatively. But it's quite another to essentially tell Iran not to bother complying because Obama deals aren't worth the paper they're printed on.
And the latter is precisely what they did. Here's their open written message to Iran's leaders, translated into a limerick:
Dear Iranian leaders, Obama
Might make you a nuke deal with drama.
But don't bother to heed it.
We plan to defeat it.
So it's worthless — each, word, clause, and comma.
Having It Both Ways (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Claim "Obama's economy's" sick?
Then take credit for upswings? How slick!
But my dear GOPers,
It doesn't take seers
To know that you really must pick.
Better Late Than Never! (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Immigration and Cuba, oh my!
Net neutrality, China, oh why
Did Obama delay
His assertive display?
Welcome boldness! To meekness, goodbye!
Inconvenient Facts (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Republicans love to get traction
By using executive action
As a pretext to jaw:
"Barack breaks the law!"–
Despite similar acts by their faction.
Immigration reform, for example:
Though Bush Senior and Reagan did ample
Such executive acts
It would seem, despite facts,
That on laws only Democrats trample.
Here's a must-read, if you really want to understand the debate over deportations.
I'm looking forward to leadership from our Surgeon General, especially now that the Ebola outbreak has reached our nation.
Oh wait … we don't have one. Why not? Because Vivek Murthy, Obama's excellent nominee, has the audacity to view guns as a health issue.
What To Do About Ebola? Don't Ask Our Surgeon General (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Though an expert on health would be nice
At this time of Ebola, no dice!
NRA's GOP
Blocked a great nominee,
And our nation is paying the price.
Please don't rat me out. But while the Secret Service wasn't looking, I swiped this limerick from President Obama's desk:
Dear Republicans, thank you for caring.
I'm touched by the worries you're airing.
Then again, you'll concede
That my death might impede
Your aspersions on me, now unsparing.
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, formerly a Common Core enthusiast, now claims that the U.S. Education Department's initiative is an Obama "power-grab." He's even suing the federal government, in an appeal to wingnutty Tenthers.
Sleazy To The Core (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
Bobby Jindal has filed a fed suit
To get Common Core given the boot:
Obama, claims Bob,
Did a power-grab job:
A prez wannabe, raising some loot.
As a devout liberal, I've been pretty disappointed in Obama's presidency. But the constant complaints about his letting off steam via golf are absurd.
To those who claim Obama's too indifferent to public opinion, think about this: When no matter what you do you're under constant (often nonsensical) attack, you might as well do what you want.
And don't even get me started on the fact that most of the horror we're embroiled in right now is a direct (or indirect) result of the war of choice in Iraq that George W. Bush (Mr. Vacation himself) lied us into.
Golf Wars (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
When Obama goes golfing, the press
And the pols say the world's in a mess,
So the prez should not play.
But they'll bitch come what may.
So he might as well drive off some stress.
John Boehner's Open Limerick To Obama
By Madeleine Begun Kane
How dare you slow implementation
Of a law that is bad for our nation!
You're impeding our rush
For a law that we'd flush.
Now show leadership! Fix immigration!
Impeachment "Scam" (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
John Boehner appears to be riled.
Dem impeachment talk's driving him wild:
How dare Dems boost their brand
When impeachment ain't planned
For that Oval defiler, reviled!
Yesterday, John Boehner called the impeachment notion a "scam" invented by Democrats to excite their base and raise money.
No doubt that will remain Boehner's claim … right up to the moment the House starts the process to impeach.
Palin's Peachy Keen On Impeachment (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane
The I-word from Palin's no shock;
For attention, she'll spew any crock.
Then the press will come through
As they constantly do,
Never balking at hawking her squawk.

Norwich Terrier Dogs can make good pets in Colorado if they match your IifestyIe. Norwich Terriers are nearly identical to Norfolk Terriers, by which they differ only cosmetically (These two Terriers were once considered to be the same breed.) Norwich Terriers have an excellent disposition, are wonderful with children, and typically can get along with other pets. Norwich Terriers need to be with people and should have good obedience training. Housebreaking may require some patience. Norwich Terriers can live in an apartment if they get enough exercise.

Reading the heading, you're probably thinking: "It's a typo, it should be 'Mobile and Social'". But no. What I wanted to talk about is the behaviour, the phenomenon, if you will, of the complete dependency people seem to have developed for their mobile phones, and how it affects their social behaviour.
Here's my theory: with smartphones and constant connections to the internet, people have developed an addiction to being online, digitally staying in touch and up-to-date. And it really starts to affect our social behaviour negatively. Mobile vs. Social.
Think about the children
Start with an experiment in your everyday life: go to a kids' playground. Look at the parents that are there with their children, "playing". Which essentially means a majority of them are looking at their mobile phones, surfing the net, checking Facebook. The kids are playing on their own, or perhaps with some other child.
At times, they try to get their parent's attention, and if they're really lucky, they'll get a humming back, or even a nod. All while the parent's eyes aren't leaving the mobile screen, of course.
I've been standing in playgrounds recently, trying to take in and analyse parent's behaviours and patterns (and not in a creepy stalker kind of way – just genuine curiosity). And this is how it mostly goes down. Most of this has been in Sweden, but I don't think this is just a local occurrence, but rather, in general, the spoiled Western world approach with gadgets and connectivity.
When children are asked about their parents' behaviour and what annoys them most, one of the most recurring answers is:
"They're just looking at their phone."
With that, I'm concerned with what message we're sending to children; ours and others. The 'Do as I say, not as I do' approach has never worked before, and it's not gonna work here either. Children need to feel that they are being seen, and I'm pretty confident that this ignoring behaviour will start to influence how they act with others as well.
How to behave with other people
But let's say you don't have children, don't want them, etc. This way of acting isn't reserved for parents being with their children, it happens just as much between adults. Just look at parties, lunches or any other grown-up interaction scene you can think of. People talk for a while, and then they just can't help themselves looking at their phones. Just for a second. Just needing that latest 'fix'.
And it doesn't matter if they're with people they know very well or not, or if they're bored by the situation (even if I do expect that to excel the behaviour). Look at couples going out to dinner, exchanging a few pleasant words, eating and then diving into their phones.
Just look around at any event you go to, restaurant, etc. How do people act, and how many keep on looking at their phones? And within families, how common isn't it that, when tired they lay on their sofa, endlessly scrolling with their thumb or index finger?
I've done it too
I'm not trying to be perfect. And God knows, I've wanted to check my phone for just a moment. Sometimes, even though the company is lovely, I have to read that last tweet, seeing if my Facebook status got any likes (because that's all that matters), if anyone online disagrees with me.
Or, when I've been bored at parties, snuck away into the toilet to pee (almost forcefully) just to get a minute or two to look on the phone: what are my friends doing, what's happening, am I really liked?
But I really dislike this part of me, this addiction, dependability on a device. I can be better. I want to be better.
Blaming Facebook, Twitter etc.
I'm certain this behaviour is bad for us ourselves as well as for our ability to interact with each other. And people are usually quick to blame social media, like Facebook and Twitter. 'Without these services, it wouldn't happen!'. You know, crap arguments like that.
Don't blame a service or a potential way of doing things. You take responsibility for your actions and choices, and it's up to you whether you want to update your status and check retweets.
I do like mobile phones
Listen, I love the internet! I love mobile phones! The possibility to just look something up, to stay in touch with dear ones no matter where I am, not trying to hunt down coins at two in the morning to make a call from the phone booth, is amazing!
And for children, learning from tablets (you know which i-word I typed there first…) and from the internet is a fantastic resource, and a great complement to existing methods.
Start living
But that's what I'm getting at here: it's a complement to our lives, not something that should own or dictate us.
So please, continue to use your mobile phones, do it when it's really worth it, when it's respectful to those around you and when it makes sense.
But, also, please don't miss out on living, on being social, on interacting with other individuals. Because that's the cornerstone of our society, and something I'd be very sad to see us lose.
