Neil Leslie Diamond was born on January 24th, 1941. He received his first guitar at the age of 16, which gave him the opportunity to further explore his love of music. Early on in his endeavors, it was noticed that Neil was following the path of other singers instead of blazing his own trail. He made a couple of attempts at recording for record labels to no avail. Neil landed his first job as a songwriter for Sunbeam Music, where he gained the knowledge and experience that would help him be successful throughout his career.
Please Note: Neil Diamond tickets may be sold for more than the price listed on the ticket. Unless specifically stated, we are not affiliated with any official Neil Diamond website, any Neil Diamond box office or any Neil Diamond fan clubs, partners, or sponsors.
It wasn't long before Neil was getting recognition in the music industry. He had a new approach to writing that was working for him. One of his first successful hits, 'Cherry Cherry' landed in the top ten on the Billboard charts and became a huge radio hit. Neil got another big break when the manager of the Monkees heard a song Neil was going to record for his next album. Neil agreed to let the Monkees record 'I'm A Believer' and it parked itself at the top of the Billboard charts for the next seven weeks.
In 1966, Neil founded his own production company and headed off on his first national tour the following year with Dick Clark's group. He got a lot of notoriety from the tour and gained a lot of experience. However, his greatest accomplishment was found in the two songs he had written while on the road, which were titled 'Kentucky Woman' and 'Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon'. Once released these songs propelled Neil Diamond's status. After a dispute over the song 'Shilo', he was forced to change labels. The song was eventually released and has become a favorite of fans worldwide. It reached the top 20's on the Billboard charts and is still a favorite of fans today.

GREENVILLE (AP) -- Authorities have charged a 30-year-old Poughkeepsie man in the killing of an Hudson Valley man whose body was found in his rural Hudson Valley home on New Year's Day.
State police announced Maurice Pratt's arrest on a first-degree murder charge on Saturday, more than two weeks after investigators say he killed 40-year-old Scott Myer of Greenville.
Police say Myer was shot multiple times around Christmas but his body wasn't found until New Year's Day inside his home, located in northern Greene County 20 miles south of Albany. Investigators haven't released information on a possible motive for the shooting.
Pratt is being held in the Greene County Jail without bail. It couldn't be determined if he had a lawyer.

Stephen Mitchell's best-selling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture.
©1988 Stephen Mitchell; (P)2007 HarperCollins Publishers
"Stephen Mitchell's rendition of the Tao Te Ching comes as close to being definitive for our time as any I can imagine. It embodies the virtues its translator credits to the Chinese original: a gemlike lucidity that is radiant with humor, grace, large-heartedness, and deep wisdom." (Huston Smith, author of The Religions of Man)
"Wonderful translation and reading, but..."
Unfortunately, this recording is seriously marred by a loud and obnoxious Audible advertisement that starts IMMEDIATELY after the book is done. It is startling and incredibly out of place, especially considering the nature of this audiobook.
Audible absolutely needs to release an updated version, changing nothing save removing this offensive advertisement, and this would be a fantastic recording!
"Please remove the ridiculous ad at the end"
There is some great stuff to contemplate in this It's very relaxing to listen to. However, as others have said the ad at the end is absurd and totally takes you out of what should be a serene experience.
"Peace is ruined at the end"
How disruptive to have Cheri Jones' loud voice at the end!! It startles you and ruins the peace you were feeling after listening to this special book !
"Relaxing Listen"
Listening to Tao wisdom any faster, would lose the point of what is being spoken. This audio book was the right speed and authors voice is easy on the ears. Many of the translations are easy to understand and give you plenty to contemplate.
"Great Translation; Weak Production"
A beautiful translation of the Tao read perfectly by the author/translator is marred by the production value. When listening with an iPod or Nano, I can actually hear the recording turning on and off. When using the recording for meditative purposes the noise becomes distracting.
"Infuriating "punch line""
I loved every aspect of this book. The translation, granted I know no other, was in clear and modern English that allowed me to fully appreciate the content in all its subtleties. Stephen Michell's soft tone of voice and the slow pace of his reading gently lead me through the meanders of Lao Tzu's thoughts.
As I heard the gentle voice say "by not dominating, the master leads", I was sinking deeper into a comfortable meditative mode. When suddenly, that Jack sprung out of her box: "Hello, this is Cherry Jones... bla bla bla". What possessed the producers of that book to kill it with that obnoxious ad at the end, which jumps into the listener's ears without a iota of a pause or a transition to isolate it from the reading of the Tao? That is how I learned that the reading of the Tao was over. With Ms Jones yelling in my ears.
That explains my one star for "Overall." There should be a grading for production quality.
"Excellent Translation of a Classic Text"
Stephen Mitchell uses his 14 years of Zen training in this well-regarded translation to capture the spirit of Laotse's seminal book on the Art of Living
The Way
"Not Tao te ching"
Written with the formal Zen practitioner mind, but if you wish to read the tao te ching, you must find a different version. Jane English's, is the only other one I have read and would recommend it highly. As it is accurate
The author "Zen"ed up the story. To much of the translator not enough Tao
The author did depart from all other translators and use she, rather then he. I found this change to be wonderful and useful.
The book ends very VERY poorly. With some woman yelling at you about audio books and children. like being thrown in ice cold water. It hurts
"Another phenomenal translation by Mitchell"
if you've ever read his translations of Rumi, the Book of Job, etc., you know what i mean!
"Great audiobook ruined by an ad at the end."
Fabulous translation and performance. A jarring ad at higher volume ends the book. BAD decision.

UC Irvine researchers have discovered that markedly depleted amounts of an omega-3 fatty acid in brain tissue samples from Alzheimer's patients may be due to the liver's inability to produce the complex fat, also contained in fish-oil supplements.
Low levels of docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, have been associated with the chronic neurodegenerative disease affecting millions of Americans, but no cause had been identified.
In postmortem liver tissue from Alzheimer's patients, the UCI team found a defect in the organ's ability to make DHA from shorter molecules present in leafy plants and other foods. Previous studies have shown that most brain DHA is manufactured in the liver.
Non-Alzheimer's livers did not have this defect, said Daniele Piomelli, the Louise Turner Arnold Chair in the Neurosciences and director of the Center for Drug Discovery at UCI, who led the research with Giuseppe Astarita, project scientist in pharmacology.
"We all know Alzheimer's is a brain disease, but our findings -- which were totally unexpected -- show that a problem with liver fat metabolism can make people more vulnerable," Piomelli said. "They also suggest a reason why clinical trials in which Alzheimer's patients are given omega-3 fatty acids to improve cognitive skills have had mixed results."
The study appears Sept. 8 in the open-access, peer-reviewed journal PLoS ONE.
DHA occurs naturally in cold-water fatty fish and seaweed. It is essential for the proper functioning of adult human brains and for the development of our nervous system and vision during the first six months of life. Omega-3 fatty acids are also part of a healthy diet that helps lower risk of heart disease.
"Additionally, we found that the greater the amount of Alzheimer's-related cognitive problems experienced in life by the patients, the lower were their liver DHA levels," Astarita said. "So we do see a connection."
Piomelli added that the results point to new diagnostic and dietary approaches to Alzheimer's: Specific blood lipid profile tests might identify at-risk persons, and dietary supplements with a chemically enhanced form of DHA may benefit early-stage patients.
"Our research isn't advocating that liver metabolism is a key to Alzheimer's," he noted. "The factors causing the disease are many and complex, but we feel this is another piece in the Alzheimer's puzzle."
Carl Cotman, Kwang-Mook Jung, Nicole C. Berchtold, Vinh Q. Nguyen and Daniel L. Gillen of UCI's Institute for Memory Impairments and Neurological Disorders contributed to the study, along with Elizabeth Head of the University of Kentucky's Sanders-Brown Center on Aging.

Is the "5-Second Rule" Safe For Dropping Food?
Subscribe to 107.9 The River on
Rock 96.7's very own Tee Roy and myself were eating yesterday and by chance, something hit the floor. The two of us being men, the 5-Second Rule came into play. But now that I'm older (and I don't actually know when the last time our office floors were cleaned), I don't trust that. I've always been more of a 3-second or less rule person myself, but even that seems a bit sketchy. So like most people in our day and age, I took to the internet for an easy answer.
Did you know, 50% of men actually follow the 5-Second Rule, but 70% of women do? And here's another shocking statistic: over 75% of our shoes have fecal matter on them (yes… dung, sh*t, poo, feces, etc.) and our feet touch the floor many times daily. Guess what else also has fecal matter on it a high percentage of the time? Currency (bills) and ATM/credit cards, so I hope you wash your hands before you eat.
After watching the above video… I'm positive I'll never eat anything off the floor again (not that I was in the habit of doing it anyway).

Blending In With The Background
Trip Start
Jul 31, 2013
Trip End
Sep 06, 2013
Just a little further around the corner is City Hall , and I have to say it's a lovely lovely building. Whilst we were waiting to cross the road we got involved in a great conversation with an engineer who is presently working on the new Oakland Bridge due to open this year. Inside City Hall there was an art exhibition of photographs taken during construction. We hope to visit that tomorrow as we had other plans today. But what we did have time for was for Fred to crash another wedding picture. The bride & groom were more than happy to have him in their wedding album.
We walked all the way through Chinatown, Little Italy and on to Pier 39. In total we calculated we probably walked about 9 miles. You really get a feel for a place when you walk the streets. Along the way I think I spotted the church used in one of the dirty Harry movies, it's the one where a nutter is hiding up in the bell tower and shooting people. We also had to make way for a fire engine on a way to a fire, all noise and lights. We saw a few arrests, a lady of the night who was dancing very provocatively outside the Hilton Hotel. The doorman came out and picked up the phone, perhaps he was calling the cops, she took off immediately, but it looked pretty funny from our side of the road. I did give an old lady who was begging what I thought was a quarter but it was in fact 5 cents. She gave me a right round of f..ks, I thought how ungrateful. We were half way down the street when Fred said " I think you gave her five cents, she probably thinks you're taking the mickey".

Soul Adventures.. Part Two
What an incredible month December has been.. I arrived home just a few days ago after a most amazing part two of my Soul Adventures. This time my wandering heart took me to Ballina and Byron Bay for amazing yoga and meditation retreat.
It has really taken me a few days to ingrate with the world around me, to find my feet amongst the festive cheer and begin to understand how profound this experience has been. As I look back now on the images I captured of my time away I cherish each moment, seeing how wonderful this time has been to rediscover myself, on this new path I am now creating.
My days in Ballina were filled with yoga, tai chi, beach walks, meditation and spending time with some amazing new friends. In quiet moments I found a little time to journal and hula hoop amongst the flowers. My evenings were spent volunteering in the Sacred Store, selling beautiful jewellery, scarves and books and enjoying wonderful conversations over music and chai.
After four days in Ballina we packed up and headed north to Byron Bay. The weather was just incredible and the king tide greeted us with love on our arrival. And once again Byron Bay called my name, her voice, a captivating ocean roar.. I remember from so long ago. I left my heart there on the beach fourteen years ago and each time I return I know it's where I truly belong.
Temple Byron played host to our final day of the retreat and it's beautiful yurt and surroundings filled my soul with joy. Messages of love and peace could be found in every corner of the amazing property and in each garden a splash of colour, a row of crystals or a pair of wild orchids just waiting to be discovered.
If part one of my adventure bought me closer to nature, than part two has truly bought me closer to myself. This time in my quiet moments it was not answers I was seeking, it was stillness.. it was love.
So for 2012 my Soul Adventures are complete. Having travelled across three states, in every possible weather condition, I have been able to enjoy some of Australia's most breathtaking places, I've met some beautiful life long friends and most of all I have been able to find peace in my soul, to reignite my fire and look ahead to an exciting future filled with love, joy and many more soul adventures.
Much Love
My Life

Looks like you had a lovely soul adventure! Very relaxing and reflective.
Oh my goodness, there is a Peace Pole! That is so exciting; growing up Church of the Brethren, a pacifist church, we have a lot of Peace Poles around, such as at my church, our camp, and my college's campus. How exciting to see one in a picture from across the world!
Thank you for stopping by! ~ I just love receiving your comments! I'll be sure to pop by your place too. Much love ~ Sophie x

UW's pain from loss to Michigan State still lingers
Madison - Sitting at home, hundreds of miles from Spartan Stadium, Chris Borland still felt the pain of his defeated teammates.
"It was tough, really frustrating," Wisconsin's sophomore middle linebacker said. "We didn't play our best game defensively. It was a helpless feeling personally, and I know how the guys must have felt there."
Borland was talking about UW's 34-24 loss to Michigan State in the 2010 Big Ten opener, a game he missed because his season had already been cut short by a shoulder injury.
Fourth-ranked UW (6-0, 2-0) returns to East Lansing for a showdown with the No. 15 Spartans (5-1, 2-0) at 7 p.m. Saturday.
Although more than a year has passed since the 10-point loss, UW's only regular-season misstep, the pain lingers for Bret Bielema's players.
"I was devastated," senior free safety Aaron Henry said. "I was completely devastated. I hadn't been that mad and upset in a while."
Michigan State rushed for 175 yards and converted 9 of 18 third-down chances and 2 of 3 fourth-down chances The Spartans' clinching touchdown, a 1-yard pass from Kirk Cousins to B.J. Cunningham, came on a fourth-and-goal play with 2 minutes 43 seconds remaining.
"They'd always convert," defensive tackle Jordan Kohout said, "which was embarrassing."
Talk to any UW player back from last season and they'll remind you Michigan State was an outstanding team. They'll acknowledge the Spartans outplayed UW that day.
Yet they'll also acknowledge, grudgingly and sheepishly, that the practices leading to the game weren't sharp.
"We practiced so bad that week," said senior defensive tackle Patrick Butrym, who is questionable because of an ankle injury suffered in the 59-7 victory over Indiana on Saturday. "The Thursday before the game it was just really sloppy. Walking off the practice field it was like: 'We're going to lose this game.'
"That game really made us mad."
Borland, who leads UW in tackles this season with 58, remembers seeing Michigan State's offensive line open lanes for the running backs. He also recalls several mental errors on defense that resulted in big hits for Michigan State.
"We had some flat-out (mental) mistakes," he said. "Those are the hardest things to deal with. If they beat you physically that is one thing. But when you give them stuff, which I think we did a little bit last year, that is really frustrating."
After UW's victory over Indiana, Bret Bielema said he needed to share much of the blame.
"I probably didn't stress playing on the road in the Big Ten as much as I should have going into that game," he said. "To win Big Ten games on the road, that's when you win championships.
"I think our guys will embrace the opportunity. I think they'll be excited about the challenge."
That excitement was palpable in the comments by UW players after the victory over Indiana.
Tailback Montee Ball, who had fallen to No. 3 on the depth chart by the time UW played Michigan State last season, had two carries for 6 yards.
"We owe them," Ball said. "We've got to make sure we practice hard and carry that practice into the game."
The excitement and anticipation for this rematch doesn't reside solely in Madison.
Shortly after Michigan State defeated rival Michigan Saturday, Spartans safety Isaiah Williams warned UW would be facing one of the top defenses in the nation.
"Wisconsin should know we're coming," Lewis told ESPN.com. "They have a good offense, and that quarterback (Russell Wilson). But they should just know our defense is coming.
"And just like any other team, if they're throwing the ball up, our DBs are going to go get it, our linebackers are going to go get it and our lineman are getting after the quarterback. And they're going to hurt him."
UW's players weren't aware of Lewis' comments on Saturday, but tailback James White couldn't hide his excitement.
"It's going to be a lot of fun," he said. "It's going to be a hostile environment. That's what we like.
"It's just another game to prove to the nation that Wisconsin football is for real."

What factors influence patient participation in a free asthma self-management program? To determine what criteria are most important for enrollment, Belgian researchers interviewed 107 outpatients with asthma about their intention to join a program. The patients also completed questionnaires.
Of the participants, 59% reported that they planned to enroll. The researchers found that hospitalization or severity of the disease had little influence on the decision. The patients who had more intense symptoms in the 2 weeks prior to recruitment appeared likely to participate, but the trend was quite poor. The participants with no barriers to program attendance (eg, lack of time or traveling distance) were almost 13 times more likely to join. Another factor that predicted enrollment was the belief in personal benefits from the program, which increased the chances of participation by 8-fold. Higher educational levels and social pressure to improve individual asthma care also were influential. (The findings were reported recently in Chest.)

On Sept. 19 and 20, Michael Stern, then-assistant district attorney for the 14th Judicial District, argued 10 to 15 cases in court. His final appearance culminated in the successful restitution of about $9,000 from two local burglary suspects.
On Sept. 21, he sorted through his affairs at the office, and on Friday, he said goodbye to the District Attorney's Office for good.
Stern, an active community member for the past year, submitted his resignation earlier this month. His last day was Friday.
Stern, who cited a need to pursue other professional opportunities as his reason for leaving the District Attorney's Office, said he hasn't made a decision about what he'll do next.
"I'm still weighing a couple of offers. There are some options here and overseas," Stern said Wednesday.
Stern, 58, joined the District Attorney's Office in August 2005. His 33-year law career has included work as a prosecutor and defense attorney, as well as stints as a prosecutor in Guam, the Virgin Islands and Colorado's Seventh Judicial District. He worked as a defense attorney in Montrose.
According to the District Attorney's Office, no one has been hired to fill Stern's position. District Attorney Bonnie Roesink was out of town Wednesday and was not available for comment.

PP-Performance tuned C7 Audi RS6 V10 with claimed 700+ horsepower versus 2013 BMW X6M with Racechip tune from a stop
SUV versus sedan drag race here. Both cars have all wheel drive and both have twin turbo powerplants. The difference being the RS6 has a larger 5.2 liter V10 motor with twin turbos (and it weighs less) versus the X6M S63 twin turbo 4.4 liter V8. The RS6 features a tune from PP-Performance said to bring it up over 700 horsepower and the Racechip tune on the X6M is stated to put it in the 590 crank horsepower range.
The X6M uses launch control and gets a nice jump from a stop showing just how potent these M SUV's are as drag racers. The RS6's power quickly takes over though and it just puts bus lengths on the X6M up top hustling to about 270 km/h or roughly 167 miles per hour.
These videos remind those of us in the USA what a shame it is that the C6 RS6 never made it to these shores.

Goat Cheese Turnovers With Tomato Coulis And Basil Puree
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 pounds very ripe plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
- Salt and white pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cups basil leaves, cleaned and dried
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 large onions, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary
- 1 teaspoon chopped thyme
- 1 teaspoon chopped basil
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed
- 1/2 recipe homemade goat cheese (about ? pound)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Flour for rolling out pastry
- 1 package frozen puff pastry, thawed in refrigerator
- 1 egg
- TOMATO COULIS: In a sauté pan heat the olive oil and sauté onion until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute longer before adding the tomatoes. Stir well to combine, season with salt and pepper, and continue to cook until tomatoes have softened and most of the released liquid has evaporated. Serve warm with hot turnovers and basil puree.
- BASIL PUREE: Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree. Transfer to an airtight container and store refrigerated until ready to use, up to 1 day in advance. Bring to room temperature before serving with Goat Cheese Turnovers with Tomato Coulis.
- GOAT CHEESE TURNOVERS: In a large skillet sauté onions in 3 tablespoons of the olive oil until very soft, translucent and caramelized, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a bowl combine remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, chopped herbs, garlic and goat cheese. Stir well to thoroughly combine, season with salt and pepper, and refrigerate until ready to assemble turnovers.
- On a large cutting board or counter lightly dusted with flour, roll out each sheet of puff pastry to a 14-inch square. Using a very sharp knife, trim edges so that they're straight, and cut pastry into 4 equal sized squares. Mentally divide the squares into two triangles, and place two heaping tablespoons of the caramelized onions on one side. Using the back of the spoon, spread onions out slightly, then top with 3 tablespoons of the goat cheese mixture. In a small bowl, lightly whisk the egg. Using a pastry brush, brush the edges of the pastry with the egg. Fold the unoccupied corner of pastry over the goat cheese and onions and press edges with a fork to decoratively seal. Lightly brush the top of the turnover with eggwash, then chill at least 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Preheat oven to 400ºF. When ready to bake, make several small slits in top of pastry and bake on an ungreased baking sheet for 12 to 15 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and puffy. Serve warm or hot with warm Tomato Coulis and drizzle with Basil Puree.

Carlos Garcia is a 19-year-old U.S. citizen, born and raised in Phoenix. Some of his closest friends are undocumented immigrants. His undocumented friends don't drive because they are not eligible for driver's licenses, so on weekends it's usually Garcia who chauffeurs them around in his Ford Mustang.
They go to places like Marivue Park in west Phoenix to play basketball or the Harkins Theatres at 99th Avenue and McDowell Road to catch a movie.
But could Garcia and others like him who routinely drive illegal immigrants be charged with breaking Arizona's new immigration law if they are stopped by police?
It's a question with no easy answer. And that means continued worry for people who drive illegal immigrants to work, to social events, to church and to hospitals.
Last week, U.S. District Court Judge Susan Bolton issued a temporary injunction that blocked key parts of the law, but she let others stand.
One of the provisions that took effect Thursday makes it a state crime to transport or harbor illegal immigrants. Supporters of the law say the transporting provision is aimed at smugglers who transport loads of illegal immigrants through Arizona into the United States or harbor them in drophouses.
"It wasn't meant for ordinary people," said state Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, who sponsored the House version of the bill. He said that in order to be charged with transporting an illegal immigrant under the new law, a person also must be in the process of committing another crime and must be found to be "furthering the illegal presence" of an undocumented immigrant.
Kavanagh said extra language was included in the provision to make it clear the law is targeted at human smugglers, "not the church worker or the cab driver hauling someone around."
Sgt. Tommy Thompson, a Phoenix Police Department spokesman, said the department was still sorting out the new law and he was not certain how it would be applied.
"It will be on a case-by-case basis," Thompson said. "It will be up to the discretion of the officer."
That discretion has some immigrant advocates worried.
"I expect this law will be used for human smugglers and not to pursue people who are engaged in their daily activities," said the Rev. Glenn Jenks, a leader of the Arizona Interfaith Network, a religious organization opposed to the law.
"But there is always the possibility that some individual police will use their power contrary to the wishes of their police chiefs."
Bolton's ruling addressed only a lawsuit by the Department of Justice that claimed Arizona's immigration law is unconstitutional and infringes on federal authority over immigration matters.
Bolton blocked the part of the law that requires an officer to make a reasonable attempt to determine the immigration status of a person stopped, detained or arrested if there is reasonable suspicion the person is in the country illegally.
That could weaken the transporting part of the law that Bolton let stand because police will have less authority to question passengers about their legal status.
She also blocked a provision that creates a crime of failure to apply for or carry "alien-registration papers" and the part that allows for a warrantless arrest of a person where there is probable cause to believe the person has committed a public offense that makes him or her removable from the United States.
Besides the transporting part, Bolton also allowed the portion that makes it a crime to pick up a day laborer - or be picked up - in a roadway if it impedes the flow of traffic.
Senate Bill 1070 was passed by the Legislature and signed into law by Gov. Jan Brewer in April. It makes it a state crime to be in the country illegally.
A driver charged with transporting an illegal immigrant, a misdemeanor, can be fined up to $1,000 and have the vehicle impounded up to 30 days.
Bolton has not ruled on six other lawsuits. One, by the American Civil Liberties Union, also claims the transportation provision is unconstitutional because it pre-empts federal law.
In the lawsuit, the ACLU argues that domestic-violence workers who drive undocumented women to appointments for treatment could potentially be arrested under the law, as could be workers for other service or church organizations.
Those concerns were alleviated somewhat when lawyers for the state told Bolton the provision is aimed at smugglers, said Cecillia Wang, the managing lawyer of the ACLU's Immigrants' Rights Project.
But Wang said the ACLU will be monitoring police to see who gets arrested under the law.
Kassandra, 20, a U.S. citizen who lives in Tucson, remains worried. She is married to an undocumented immigrant from Mexico and asked that her last name not be used to protect his identity because she is afraid he could be deported.
Kassandra said she drives her husband back and forth to work and to college.
She said she is afraid that she could be arrested if she is ever stopped by police.
"Essentially, the government is telling us who we can and cannot associate with," Kassandra said.
Garcia said he knows he may be taking a risk driving his friends who are undocumented. He has known two of them since third grade.
Still, he said, "I don't think I will stop driving them around. They are my friends."

HAMTRAMCK, Mich. -
Three firefighters were hurt injured after battling a fire Friday morning on the 3000 block of Edwin in Hamtramck, according to authorities.SLIDESHOW: Falling through roof: 3 fire fighters hurt battling fire
The Hamtramck fire started about 9:30 a.m. Friday. The Hamtramck Fire Department says nobody was inside the two-story home when firemen were on the second floor attic.
"It was just burning. I woke up and it was burning," said neighbor Michael Stone.
The first fireman fell down from the stairs. Afterward, the second fireman went down from the roof and into the second floor. The third fell from the attic as well.
"As we got to the back of the house we found it was fully involved in the second floor, the attic and the roof," said Hamtramck Fire Cpt. Chris Sanchez.
The firemen are expected to be OK, suffering from ankle, back and hip injuries. The Fire Department says they were transported to Detroit Receiving Hospital.
"You have to commend these guys. To fight a house fire, especially a two-story structure, with just four of us, that's asking a lot," Sanchez said. "I'm hoping in time that the city will look at this and see that this really is an insufficient amount of guys to be fighting a house fire."

The 404 rim shown here is 58mm deep, while the 808 (not pictured) is 82mm deep.
We're taking our first look at Zipp's new Firecrest line. We have both the 404 clinchers (pictured here), and the 808 clinchers mounted up and being ridden for review. But we couldn't rob you of some of the details before we get to our in-depth review of the wheels. So before laying down rim tape and pumping up the tires, we thought we'd take a look at the construction details, and examine everything we could before finally putting in the miles.

Shailendra Singh, JMD of Percept Ltd, is planning to come out with a tell-all book on Bollywood – and we wait to find out how many people he will upset!
It seems everyone wants a piece of the Bollywood pie. And if you're the top official at a company making movies, you can have the entire pie, it seems! Shailendra Singh, Joint Managing Director, Percept Ltd is trying to do just that.
First, he forms an entertainment company with his brother. Then, he steps into the world of advertising, PR, talent management and movie-making. And then, when you would think he has done it all, he writes a book that comments on the very people from B-town who have helped his company reach astonishing heights.
What's more, his memoir is titled F…ck Knows. So what exactly is the book about? Singh explained to a Mumbai tabloid, "It's about how little of what we know to be stardom makes so little sense. How do you explain Asia's greatest entertainer selling cement and hair oil? No one has an answer. That's why my book is called F..ck Knows."
Considering the fact that Singh is gonna dissect and study everything about top Bollywood stars' careers, he'd better watch out. Burning some of those bridges could be dangerous to his company. Or is it that Singh wants to retire soon? F..ck Knows!

Hazzard's Training Log: A Renegade's Road To War
So I thought I should get back to this logging business as I could do with some guidance and feedback regarding my training and to become more involved in this community rather than just antagonizing people and posting funny pictures. Plus proof that I do actually train!
As a few of you know, I'm now playing (American) football for my local team, the Berkshire Renegades. Unlike in the States, football is a teeny, tiny sport over here, probably akin to rugby union in the US if I were to guess. So don't be expecting division 1 standards of play in this country. But nevertheless, I'm really enjoying it and looking to better myself at the sport through continuing to train at the gym plus training with the team.
For those in the know, I'm playing defensive tackle so I want to get a big and powerful as possible, whilst still retaining some semblance of athleticism and not being a Vince Wilfork-fat fatty.
Here's what I've come up with for my training at the moment:
- Upper Body 1
ME Bench Press variation - to lift heavy stuff
Bench Press volume - sets of 6-10, various types, usually with a tricep focus for hitting dudes
Back exercise 1 - lats
Back exercise 2 - rhomboids and/or traps
Lateral raise
Bicep/tricep superset
- Lower Body 1
Squat 5/3/1 - squat is suffering a little at the moment, so I want to go back to basics to build it up
DE Squat - 8-12 triples, usually to a box, with bands and/or chains
Unilateral exercise - split squats, lunges, etc.
- Upper Body 2
Bench Press 5/3/1
DE Bench Press - 8-12 triples, bands/chains/football bar, etc., mix it up
Back exercise 1 - lats
Back exercise 2 - rhomboids and/or traps
Shoulder press exercise - landmine presses are a current favourite
Hammer curls
- Lower Body 2
ME/DE deadlift variation - need to work on putting this together, not sure what to do
Not 100% sure about Thursdays as I need to do a low intensity leg workout - maybe glute bridges, band leg curls, etc.
Friday & Saturday
- Rest
- Football Training

USB issues with 208BQuote:
Thanks, Dave. |
That should not be necessary I do not believe. I would just use a battery to power the charger during updating and not worry about it. Surely you have some Ni,LiPolys,LiFePO4, Pb around that are small / portable anda voltage range capable of powering the charger. The computer I use for updating most of my chargers has a sticker on its' front which says Caution ! Use Battery For Charger Updates. This is not necessary for all chargers but is simple insurance. Even if a ground loop is not an issue having the charger or computer lose power during an update can brick (kill) some chargers. My desktop computers are on UPS units so no issue with poer for them however the power supplies I use for the chargers are not on UPS unit and only sometimes on a deep cycle Pb source. Sorry sometimes I miss the real issue. Quote:
Some users of other chargers with ground loop issues went to using a USB Hub which is optically isolated. Charles |
Last edited by everydayflyer; May 13, 2012 at 07:51 AM.
Charles - yep, you nailed it at the end. One of the joys of electronic communications is that I though I was being clear, then re-reading my own posts I see that I could and should have been more specific about what exactly it was that I was trying to do.
So, yes, I want to be able to l use logview for potentially longer that I would be able to using a battery to either power the charger or to power the laptop. Recommendations for either an inexpensive isolated USB cable or hub? Everything I'm seeing is running about $100.00. |
This one works well. Been using it on my Hyperion Super Duo for about a year without a glitch.
Less than 40 bucks. Doesn't need an external supply with my PC and the Super Duo. http://microcontrollershop.com/produ...oducts_id=3769 John Quote:
Charles and John, thanks for the help. I'll be getting the isolator some time this week.
I promise to try and be more clear next time. Yep, with my extremely limited knowledge there will be a next time... Fwiw, this is my first "real" charger, that is one that isn't a wall-wart or automotive battery charger type. I'm just now getting back into RC following a break since 1994 due to kids and the military. I figured I better get a charger first and figure out how to use it. When I started looking for a charger I went looking for one that be able to handle Nimh/Nicd for my son's RC cars and Airsoft gear, but would also be able to do any of the lithium chemistry types currently out there with the intent being to buy more charger than I could imagine needing any time soon, so that's how I got to the 208B. After all this I think it would have been nice if Progressive and EP Buddy would possibly carry an isolator and a note summarizing what I've learned, namely that 1.) You can operate the charger in standalone mode using whatever power source you want and it will work great. Depending on what you have powering your computer and the charger you may not be able to update firmware or run logview due to ground loop. 2.) In order to update the charger firmware or use logview you must either power the charger or the computer with a battery or have the USB connection isolated. If you chose to operate both with power originating from 120 VAC, you must use an isolator of some sort for the USB connection - either an isolated USB cord or USB hub. Otherwise your computer will not recognize that the charger is connected. |
I've used a few different power supplies for the iChargers, and currently have two separate iChargers and power supplies both connected to one PC and the USB port works fine, even for both at the same time using only the original iCharger USB cables without any isolator to the USB connection. Just saying, it will work as advertised and probably does for most. The experts on here will help to get yours working too. |
And just one more piece of info.
I added the Opto isolator not to get the charger to work but to avoid frying it or the PC. There have been a few experiences where the ground loop through the PC USB cord has allowed large currents to flow in either the charger or the USB port in the PC. Smoke ensues. There is a description in the Hyperion Software Suite help file that explains what can happen. I suspect the iCharger may be susceptible as well but I have never investigated it. http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/pc/ecds-...reyoustart.htm Bottom of the page. This is quite apart from any noise issues that the ground circuit may introduce and upset the serial comms. John Quote:
What ones needs to understand is that with charger spec. they really mean up to 10A max, and up to 10S max. or 200 watts max not all.
A 10S equals 42 volts . 200 watts / 42 = 4.76 amps. A 3S is 12.6V thus 200 / 12.6 = 15.87A however the max. in amps is 10 so in fact a 3S at 12.6 X 10a(charger's max.) = 126 watts. These rules apply to all chargers. I have often posted that one needs to understand the specs. and pay more attation to the max. watts. MAny purchase a $30 5A charger expecting to charge a 3 or 4 cell Lipoly at 5A only later to find out that 50 watts will only charge a 3S at 3.9A and a 4S at 2.97A. Even worse is the discharge abilitie of many such 50 watt chargers as many are limites to 25 watts or less discharge rates which means discharging a 4S 3300 or larger to Storage is going to take awhile.

My Plan with Pb Batteries
Hi Guys
Im hoping someone can pin point any problems or advise me a better solution to a plan I have in mind. Your help & knowledge to answer any of my questions will be much appreciated. I have been lucky enough to acquirer some Pb Batteries. I have in hand the following: 2x CSB GP12170 (12V 18000mAh) currently in serial setup http://www.csb-battery.com/english/0...p?fid=5&pid=13 Here is my cunning plan I plan to test the 2 GP12170 Batteries to make sure they are ok and rewire them into parallel. While at the field I was thinking to use my icharger 106B+ and the GP12170 to charge my 6S 2650mAh lipos. My question are: - Is my max charge rate limited to only 6A as the max DC input current for the 106 is 6A? - How many Lipos (80% discharge) do you think I will be able to charge from the fully charged Pb? Would it be 36000/2100 = 17 Lipos - What setting should I set in my charger to make sure I dont stress or over discharge my Pb? Safety Timer:40mins, Capacity cut off:2200, Input Limit:5.0-6.0A & 10.00v. After a days flying and my flight packs are discharge, I would charge all my packs to full peak via AC power. After this I plan to discharge all my packs through the Regenerative Option to the Pb I had used at the field. Other then setting regen to; On, current limit to; 4or5A and Limit to; 14v.. is there anything else Im missing or doing wrong? Thanks for taking the time to read my post Cheers evltoy |

It was a beautiful day for a wedding--well, 24 weddings. An awesome organization called Pop Up Chapel performed same-sex wedding ceremonies today in Manhattan's Central Park, so Paul and I headed over to get shots of the way-cool wedding dresses and ceremony canopies (you've got to see these!).
When same-sex marriage was legalized in New York on June 24th, the people behind Pop Up Chapel thought, "Hey, let's give away some free weddings to celebrate marriage equality!" So they worked with wedding officiants, makeup artists, hair stylists, floral designers, cupcake bakers, and more to make 24 couples' wedding dreams come true (the organization chose to throw 24 weddings to honor the date the law was signed and the July 24th date when the first legal gay marriages were performed).
And my goodness was love in the air today. You couldn't help but smile when you looked at these happy couples who had waited so long (one pair met 37 years ago!) to get hitched. After seven hours of ceremonies (good thing it was sunny, in the 80s, and not too humid today) at two different chapels, designed especially for the day, 48 people could finally say they were married.
Dave Holmes, the former MTV personality, was the MC for the day.
Bryn and Leila were the first brides to get married...and I couldn't stop staring at that long, slimming dress. Now there's a something blue! And I adore their bouquets too.
Those two cuties exchanged vows in the iCrave wedding chapel (the gal at the altar is their wedding officiant). The rainbow ribbon design was one of the two winning entries from architects who hoped to have their work featured in Central Park today.
This was the other winning design, from Z-A Studio. It's called Kiss and made of recycled honeycomb cardboard.
Here's the reverse view (and some of the Manhattan skyline's famous towers).
Couples were treated to pro hair and makeup (those lucky ducks!).
These newlywed grooms (with the calla lily boutonnieres) got a celebratory squeeze from their loved ones.
Meet Jen and Rose. I was so obsessed with their wedding style, I asked them to pose for a photo just before their ceremony. Jen's wedding gown is from David's Bridal and Rose's sassy number is from BCBG.
Though there were hundreds in attendance, each couple was able to bring just a dozen guests into the chapel areas.
As "Here Comes the Bride" played (or should it be "Here Come the Brides"?), Rose and Jen walked toward the Kiss chapel hand in hand. Most couples escorted each other down the aisle (so sweet).
These two were positively giddy during their wedding ceremony. You'd never know they already had a wedding celebration in Maine a few weeks prior--Rose's adorable mom let me in on the secret--but this New York ceremony made their marriage legal.
Lots of New Yorkers and tourists who didn't know the couples gathered to show their support. There were a couple of haters (one bicycle renter asked the crowd, "So are you all gay?"), but they were few and far between, thankfully.
If that isn't love, I don't know what is.
Married! Wedding guests rang bells and cheered. I was so honored to witness!
So which wedding bouquet is your favorite? And which of the wedding dresses would you wear (Rose's BCBG dress gets my vote!)? Would you mind getting married simultaneously in the same location as other couples if the ceremony were free?

Electronics Disposal
Colorado state law as of July 1, 2013, prohibits the disposal of waste electronic devices (e-waste). The new law affects consumers, waste haulers, transfer stations, and landfill operators. Residents can no longer place computers and many other types of electronics at the curb, or in the waste bins, for collection and disposal. Instead consumers must deliver their electronic equipment to collection facilities or collection events for recycling. Haulers are prohibited from knowingly collecting electronics. Industry, businesses, government agencies, institutions and schools are already subject to restrictions on disposal of electronic wastes.
Electronics that are Banned from Disposal
"Waste electronic devices", as defined by the new law, include television sets, central processing units (CPUs), computer monitors, peripherals, printers, fax machines, laptops, notebooks, ultra books, net books, electronic tablets, digital video disc players, video cassette recorders and video display devices with a screen greater than four inches.
Environmental Hazards
Electronic devices contain a number of hazardous elements, such as lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, chromium and sliver. Computer batteries also may contain nickel- cadmium, lithium, or sealed lead acid. These constituents are not a concern when the equipment is in use, but they can migrate if disposed in a landfill, potentially contaminating groundwater and soil.
At CU-Boulder
- Electronics are no longer accepted for disposal inside or outside of ANY refuse container on university property.
- Collection events for electronics may be offered by the university at a later date for residence halls and family housing tenants. Nominal disposal fees may apply. Tenants will be notified when such events occur.
- Departmental property (not Housing and Dining materials) needs to be properly disposed of through Property Services.

Time for a Shindig
Women's History Month is here. To celebrate the women, the riot grrrls, chicks, mamas and the sisters, we are featuring female winemaker wines available at Harlem Vintage for the month March. First up, owner and winemaker (and former aerospace engineer!) of Brooklyn Oenology, Alie Shaper. Shaper's aim was to connect a local, artisan movement in New York City to locally made wine. Hence, the grapes are sourced from Long Island and the Finger Lakes regions, while the bottle labels are designed by Brooklyn artists.
Her fabulous Shindig White 2009, made in the Finger Lakes, is a blend of Vidal Blanc (a French-American hybrid grape created from Ugni Blanc and Rayon D'Or) and the aromatic Riesling grape. This wine is simultaneously crisp, bright, fresh, citrus-y and shows hints of tropical fruits. It's amazing with Chinese takeout and adds a stylish-locavore note to a party (or a shindig, if you will). Only 300 cases of this wine is made, so stock up at Harlem Vintage! Harlem Vintage, 2235 Frederick Douglas Boulevard, Harlem, NY

The Adrenaline Challenge returns to San Diego on Jan. 5-6, hosting almost 100 teams across Youth, Middle School, High School and Elite divisions, including many of the Southland's finest, as well as teams from around the country and from Canada.
The 2013 Challenge marks the third year the tournament has been held at the Del Mar Polo Fields, a large venue with multiple fields in one centralized location, and almost 60 college recruiters are listed as planning to attend. In between games, players can attend clinics led by the college coaches and explore the vendor village.
New to the Adrenaline Challenge this year is the LXM Challenge, the seventh and final stop on the 2012 LXM Pro Tour. Team STX and Team Sole will face off at Torrey Pines High School (6:15 p.m., Jan. 5) after the tournament games end for the day. The Lacrosse Network will be streaming the game on its YouTube channel.
Along with the LXM Challenge, Adrenaline also offers a brand new Adrenaline VIP Experience, which includes a meet and greet with LXM Players at the Adrenaline Challenge, VIP Parking and admission to the LXM Challenge, an Adrenaline Apparel package, access to a postgame autograph session and more. LXM Challenge tickets as well as Adrenaline VIP Experience tickets can be can be purchased online.
As a former participant in the Adrenaline Challenge, both at the current location in Del Mar and previous locations, I can say from experience that Adrenaline puts on a great event for players and recruiters. The addition of the LXM Challenge only bolsters an already well-run tournament, and the event should be a success.

The Horse Forum
- Western Riding
- - Cattle work with an Aussie saddle??
Cattle work with an Aussie saddle?? Hey, so I did some team penning on a friends horse and really enjoyed it...haha this coming from a long time english rider. Anyways I want to switch to western and do some cattle work however saddle fitters and chiropractors have said my horses back is to short for a western saddle because they sit past her last rib and she already has some permanent damage from a bad fitting saddle from her previous owner so the saddle has to be short enough to not rub on those spots. I dont know much about western or Australian saddles but can you do cattle work with them? I was thinking they would be short enough. |
You should try a StocK Saddle they dont cover much more space on a horses back than an All purpose! They are the saddle of choice in Australia for Cattle work |
thats where they originated :) stock saddles are common here for more than just cattle work but yeah, originally they were used for working cattle, mustering etc so im sure you will have no dramas with one :) |
Most definantly :) Go for it. |

Lea Michele is now a proper pop star — just take a look at her new music video for "Cannonball," the first single from her debut solo album. Michele's powerful voice is perfect for the inspirational anthem, written by pop superstar Sia.
The video takes the "light at the end of the tunnel" lyric very seriously, with Michele starting out in shadow, belting her heart out, and the set around her growing increasingly lighter. She looks gorgeous and so does the video. Check it out below.
Michele's debut solo album, "Louder," is scheduled for release on March 4. Michele released a piano ballad, "Battlefield," in December as an added bonus for fans preordering the album on iTunes.

Game 2: Mavericks 93, Lakers 81
Always the favorites, unwaveringly confident for so long ... the Lakers now will have to show they have some underdog fight.
The two-time defending NBA champion Lakers lost again at home to the Dallas Mavericks, 93-81, to fall behind in the Western Conference semifinals, 2-0, on Wednesday night.
In 18 previous situations after losing the opening two games of a seven-game series at home, only three NBA teams have rallied to win the series. The Lakers have lost the first two games -- home or away -- of seven-game series 18 times before and come back to win the series twice; only 14 teams in league history have come back from down, 2-0.
The Lakers will have to win one game out of the next two coming up in Dallas just to give their retiring coach, Phil Jackson, another chance at Staples Center. Game 3 is Friday night, and Game 4 is Sunday afternoon.
One game after Kobe Bryant had no assists in a loss, Pau Gasol didn't get one until very late in another. The Lakers were fragmented on offense throughout the second half after being terribly inconsistent in team defense in the first half.
The Lakers, with backup guard Steve Blake the worst offender at 0 for 5, were abysmal on 3-point shots. The didn't make one until Bryant hit one with 2:43 to play on his fourth attempt. The team finished 2 for 20 on 3-pointers.
Ron Artest hit the other in the final minute before being ejected moments later with 24.4 seconds left for a blow to the face of Mavericks' 6-foot guard J.J. Barea, who sparked Dallas in the fourth quarter.
In Game 1, Bryant shot 4 for 9 on 3-pointers, but his teammates were 1 for 10. The Lakers' 3-point shooting has been spotty for some time -- and so has their bench play. It was more of the same on this night.
Lamar Odom came out flat, blowing a defensive assignment immediately after coming off the bench, and later blew another. He was able to refocus with two baskets, but there were more mistakes than bright ideas from the Lakers' reserves in the second quarter.
Dallas' bench outscored the Lakers' bench, 30-12. Barea had 12 points in 16 minutes.
Jackson said before the game he thought the Lakers needed to loosen up some, and he was right. They came out tight, feeling the pressure of all that was riding on the game, and missed some open shots badly. The Lakers also shot 11 of 20 from the foul line.
Bryant had 23 points on 9-of-20 shooting. Dirk Nowitzki led Dallas again with 24 points on 9-of-16 shooting.

Loutelious "T. J." Holmes, Jr. (born August 19, 1977) is an American journalist and national television personality. Holmes first gained national prominence as an anchor and correspondent for CNN. He spent 5 years at the network anchoring CNN Saturday & Sunday Morning.
Holmes left CNN at the end of 2011 after signing a multi-platform talent deal with BET Networks[1] The deal included a new show on BET titled Don't Sleep.[2] BET and Holmes parted ways in 2013.[3][4]
In December 2012, Holmes became a substitute weekend anchor on MSNBC. Despite a brief return to CNN, he still appears occasionally on MSNBC.
On September 26, 2014, Holmes filed a report from New York for Good Morning America and on September 27, 2014, the weekend Good Morning America team officially welcomed him to ABC News.
Early life[edit]
Holmes was born in West Memphis, Arkansas and is the younger of two children. His family gave him the nickname "T. Jr." He only began using the name "T. J." when he started his professional television career.
After graduating from West Memphis High School, Holmes attended the University of Arkansas where he earned a degree in broadcast journalism.
Early career[edit]
Holmes started his television career at KSNF Channel 16 in Joplin, Missouri. He drove to Joplin from the University of Arkansas campus to hand-deliver his resume and reel. He was hired on the spot. Holmes spent less than a year at KSNF as a producer, assignment reporter, and weekend anchor.
Holmes moved back to his home state of Arkansas in 2000 to join CBS affiliate KTHV in Little Rock as a general assignment reporter. Within a year, he was promoted to weekend anchor.
In 2003, Holmes moved on to KNTV, the NBC O&O station in the San Francisco Bay Area, to become anchor of the 5 p.m. evening news. While at KNTV, he traveled to Athens, Greece to cover the 2004 Olympics, the first Summer Games held after the September 11th attacks. While at KNTV, he covered numerous other stories that garnered national attention, including the historic recall election of California Gov. Gray Davis that resulted in the election of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger; and, the double murder trial of Scott Peterson.
Holmes joined CNN as a news anchor and correspondent in October 2006. He co-anchored CNN Saturday & Sunday Morning with Betty Nguyen until March 2010 when Nguyen left for CBS. Holmes then anchored the newscast solo.
At CNN, Holmes reported from the scene of numerous breaking news events, including Joplin, MO, which was devastated by multiple tornadoes in May 2011; New Orleans during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010; and, Blacksburg, VA immediately after the shootings on the campus of Virginia Tech. Holmes also anchored from Ground Zero on the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.
Holmes covered the historic first papal visit to the United States of Pope Benedict XIV in 2008, including anchoring live from the mass at Yankee Stadium. Holmes secured some of the first stories from the survivors of the US Airways Flight 1549 that crash landed in the Hudson River in January 2009. Holmes also reported from the campus of the University of Mississippi during the first presidential debate between Sens. John McCain and Barack Obama.
Holmes also anchored significant news stories, including Saddam Hussein's execution in 2006, the terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India in 2008, and the terrorist attacks at the Glasgow Airport in 2007.
Holmes contributed to CNN's 2010 coverage of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and 2008 coverage of the presidential primary campaigns, both of which garnered Peabody Awards.
Holmes' last day on CNN was Christmas Day 2011.[5]
In December 2011, Holmes and BET announced he had signed a multi-platform deal with BET Networks. In a statement, BET revealed:
"The deal with Holmes includes a new show on BET, as well as content on BET.com in which he can bring his many talents to what the company regards as "the most important and interesting stories" for the BET audience. "We are simply ecstatic to have T.J. Holmes coming to our fold. He's been an outstanding news anchor and we look forward to working with him in a variety of new ways on BET," said Stephen G. Hill, President of Music Programming and Specials at BET Networks. "It's now upon us to develop vehicles that capture his intelligence, curiosity about the world, warmth, humor and compassion. It's a challenge that we are happy to have." [6]
In August 2012, BET Networks announced that Holmes will be the host of their new original series Don't Sleep, which will premiere October 1, 2012 from 11 p.m.-11:30 p.m. ET /PT. Airing Monday through Thursday, Holmes will deliver smart, biting social commentary on significant issues important to the black community.[7]
After much speculation in March 2013 BET announced they had cancelled Don't Sleep and that Holmes had left the network.[8]
Since December 29, 2012, Holmes has appeared on MSNBC on several occasions as a substitute anchor. He has appeared on Weekends with Alex Witt and NewsNation with Tamron Hall.
Return to CNN[edit]
Starting on June 24, 2013, Holmes made a brief return to the Turner family of networks when he anchored coverage of the George Zimmerman trial.
ABC News[edit]
T.J Holmes joined the ABC News Team on September 26, 2014 on a freelance/temporary basis,[9] substituting on the overnight news program World News Now (WNN) and America This Morning, and filing reports for Good Morning America when news broke overnight, such that he did on the day of his hiring, and made publicly official the next day by the GMA Weekend hosts. He will also, just like other WNN anchors, substitute on GMA as needed.
