By IBRAHIM BARZAK and MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH
Associated Press
RAFAH, Gaza Strip
The exiled Hamas chief broke into tears Friday as he arrived in the Gaza Strip for his first-ever visit, a landmark trip reflecting his militant group's growing international acceptance and its defiance of Israel.
Khaled Mashaal, who left the West Bank as a child and now leads the Islamic group from Qatar, crossed the Egyptian border and once on Gazan soil, prostrated himself in a gesture of thanksgiving, recited a traditional Islamic prayer and kissed the ground.
He was greeted by a crowd of Hamas officials and representatives of Hamas' rival Fatah party.
Mashaal, 56, was also welcomed by a group of Palestinian children of Gaza militants killed by Israel in recent years, wearing military-style uniforms. Thousands of Hamas supporters lined the streets as Mashaal and Gaza Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh drove by, waving and flashing victory signs.
That the visit took place at all is a window on the changing climate of the Middle East and the balance of power among the factions and nations.
Hamas has received a boost from the rise of its parent movement, the fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood, following Arab Spring revolts _ especially in Egypt. Deposed Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak barely tolerated Hamas, cooperating with Israel on a blockade of Gaza after Hamas overran it in 2007.
Israel, along with the U.S. and European Union, lists Hamas as a terror organization because of its history of attacks, including suicide bombings, against Israelis. Controlling most entrances to Gaza, Israel prevented most prominent diplomats from entering the territory after the violent Hamas takeover.
Egypt's new Brotherhood-dominated regime has welcomed Hamas leaders, negotiating a truce to end an eight-day flare-up between Hamas and Israel last month. Hamas trumpeted that as a victory, despite the new wave of death and destruction in the territory under its control in Israeli airstrikes, meant to stop daily Palestinian rocket attacks.
More significantly, in another precedent-setting series of events, the Egyptian prime minister and other foreign diplomats visited Gaza during the fighting, crossing in from Egypt, just as Mashaal did Friday.
Mashaal appeared before the charred car of Hamas militant chief Ahmad Jabari, assassinated by Israel at the beginning of last month's round of violence. The eight-day conflict was the bloodiest round of Israel-Gaza fighting in four years. Militants launched hundreds of rockets on Israel and Israeli warplanes targeted an equal number of Hamas targets.
Mahmoud Zahar, senior Hamas member, said Mashaal's first visit was in celebration of Hamas' gains in the latest round of fighting.
Mashaal's visit, though widely cheered, is nevertheless sensitive because of Palestinian political infighting. Mashaal, considered more pragmatic than Hamas' Gaza-based hard-line leaders, forged a reconciliation agreement with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who rules the West Bank. But the Gaza-based leadership, unsupportive of the agreement, has held up implementing it.
On Friday Mashaal asked aides to remove a red carpet laid out for him and refused an honor guard ceremony for his arrival. He appeared sensitive to the fact that Abbas still has not visited Gaza since Hamas wrested control of Gaza from his Fatah Party.
Palestinian officials in the West Bank expressed hope that Mashaal's visit would help finalize the Palestinian political unity deal.
Israel, which is reluctantly coming to terms with the shifting Palestinian power balance, mostly kept silent on the visit. A Foreign Ministry spokesman said Israel did not differentiate among various Hamas leaders.
Fifteen years ago, Mashaal was nearly assassinated in Jordan by Israeli agents who squirted a deadly poison in his ear, narrowly escaping after the U.S. forced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, then serving his first term as premier, to provide the antidote.
Now a bolstered Mashaal appears in Gaza undeterred by neighboring Israel. Mashaal referred to the assassination attempt by "the foolish Netanyahu," saying, "God was stronger than him and his conspiracy."
Thousands of masked Hamas militants deployed throughout Gaza to protect Mashaal's convoy, with rocket propelled grenades, assault rifles and anti-aircraft weaponry in tow.
During Friday's visit, which was timed for the 25th anniversary of Hamas' founding, Mashaal also paid homage at the house of the group's spiritual leader Ahmed Yassin, who was paralyzed in a childhood accident and killed by a missile fired from an Israeli helicopter on March 22, 2004.
The assassination came at a time of heavy Israeli-Palestinian fighting that saw Hamas suicide bombers detonate their explosives inside buses, restaurants and other public places across Israel.
Daraghmeh reported from Gaza City, Gaza Strip.

Participants Wanted
Children ages 12-17, who have well-controlled asthma, are wanted in a clinical trial to study the effectiveness of mobile devices in an effort to determine the lowest dosage of medication needed to maintain control.
Children ages 12-17, who have well-controlled asthma, are wanted in a clinical trial to study the effectiveness of mobile devices in an effort to determine the lowest dosage of medication needed to maintain control.
Asthma in children is the number one reason for school absences and hospital emergency department visits. At Nemours, we treat nearly 30,000 children with asthma each year. Our teams of pediatric specialists can make an initial diagnosis of asthma and provide the care children need to successfully manage their symptoms.
Asthma is generally a chronic (long-term) disease that makes breathing difficult when parts of a child's airway become swollen and inflamed, and may be clogged with thick mucus.
Making an initial diagnosis of asthma in children includes obtaining a complete medical and family history, and performing a comprehensive physical examination. Testing is individualized and may include a chest X-ray and pulmonary function testing to see how well the lungs are working, and allergy testing.
After the diagnosis is made, good childhood asthma care requires continuous effort at home and in school. We spend lots of time with children and families one-on-one and in groups to teach them about the disease and how to use their medications. Our primary goal is to minimize the symptoms of asthma and help children and families to reduce the number of times they'll need to go to the hospital for emergency care.

The doctors, nurses, and respiratory therapists of the Nemours Children's Specialty Care, Orlando asthma team are specially trained to provide treat asthma in children. Our pulmonologists (lung specialists) can make an initial diagnosis of asthma and provide the tools children and families need to successfully manage the disease.
An important part of our program involves detecting and treating under-diagnosed asthma in children, so a correct care plan can improve their quality of life. We strive to minimize the side effects of asthma medications, prescribing the smallest amount of medication needed to control symptoms and prevent asthma flare-ups. We will also address any underlying medical conditions that may contribute to asthma in your child.
For mild to moderate asthma in children, we work toward the goals of keeping them symptom free and able to participate in sports and other activities.
For children with moderate to severe asthma, our goals are to keep them out of the hospital and to help them be consistent in taking their medications and sticking to their personalized treatment plan (also known as an "asthma action plan").
Communication is central to that process, and we work to build close relationships with our patients and families. All of your child's Nemours caregivers, and many primary care doctors, will have "real-time" access to information about your child's asthma management plan and any medical care your child receives through our electronic medical record system, NemoursOne.

Serrano Ham and Manchego Croquetas with Smoked Pimentón Aioli
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: My husband and I celebrated our anniversary last year by taking a wonderful trip to Spain. Although we tried a countless number of tapas, our favorite was the croquetas- Spanish croquettes filled with different ingredients. My croquetas use classic Spanish ingredients like salty Serrano ham and nutty Manchego cheese. And to serve with them, I make an aioli using Pimenton de La Vera, a delicious sweet smoked paprika. You may want to make extra croquetas because your guests will gobble them up! —Sonali aka the Foodie Physician
Food52 Review: We always love hors d'oeuvres that can be made ahead and fried up quickly for a party, and these addictive Spanish croquetas fit the bill. The cheesy, ham-flecked dough is a cross between a choux (without the egg) and a floury bechamel. Once it cools and thickens up, you can put little (or big) helpers on ball-rolling duty. The crust fries up shaggy and golden from the panko, and the paprika aioli is pretty in pink, with an assertive garlic punch. - A&M —The Editors
Makes: 20-22
Prep time: 8 hrs 25 min
Cook time: 23 min
Serrano Ham and Manchego Croquetas
tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
tablespoons unsalted butter
cup all purpose flour
1 1/4
cups whole milk
cup finely chopped Serrano ham (can substitute prosciutto), about 1.8 oz
cup grated Manchego cheese, about 1.8 oz
teaspoon grated nutmeg
pinch Kosher salt
cup panko breadcrumbs
cups Vegetable oil, for frying
Smoked Pimenton Aioli
cup mayonnaise
cloves garlic
teaspoons fresh lemon juice
teaspoon Spanish sweet smoked paprika such as Pimentón de La Vera
- Heat the oil and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until butter is melted. Add the flour and cook 1-2 minutes while whisking frequently. Gradually add the milk while whisking and continue to cook another 2-3 minutes. The mixture should be smooth. Switch to a wooden spoon and stir in the ham, cheese and nutmeg. Cook another 1-2 minutes while stirring- the mixture will pull away from the sides of the pan. Taste the mixture and add salt if desired- the ham and cheese are salty so you probably won't need to add any additional salt.
- Transfer the mixture to an 8x8-inch baking tray and spread it out so that it is even. Let the mixture cool, then cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
- When ready to cook the croquetas, lightly beat the eggs in a shallow dish. Mix the breadcrumbs and ½ teaspoon salt in another dish. Scoop up tablespoons of the cooled filling and form them into balls. Dip each ball into the egg and then the breadcrumbs. Place the completed croquetas on a wire rack or baking sheet and refrigerate for 20 minutes. The croquetas must be chilled before frying otherwise they may fall apart in the oil.
- Meanwhile, make the aioli by pureeing the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and smoked pimentón in a blender or mini food processor. Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Pour enough vegetable oil into a large stockpot to reach a depth of 1 inch and heat over medium high heat. Working in batches, fry the croquetas in the oil, turning them on all sides, until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with the smoked pimentón aioli.

Document Management
Documents are the lifeblood of the legal profession. If you're not properly managing them, it could be you're not properly managing your practice—and that is not a good thing. I'm sure you create several new electronic documents each day and edit a multitude of others. But "documents" in today's world can also include e-mail messages to clients (which are as "official" as a written letter), spreadsheets, presentations, PDF files, HTML web pages, and database files. If you don't have a solid, effective process for managing all of these, you could be falling short of your ethical responsibility to your clients and others. Fortunately, there is plenty of help available, in the form of document management systems (DMS).
Document management is simply a process for organizing, managing, and keeping track of documents so you can find them when you need them. DMS refers to software applications that act as virtual document repositories, keep track of the relationships between documents, and allow you to readily search and retrieve files.
Anyone who creates and saves a document on a computer practices a form of document management. When you save a file, you have to decide where to store it and what to call it. DMS applications take this idea a step further and let you "profile" each file. For example, you can tag each document with a client/matter number, document type, author, creation date, or even comments, and call it up by accessing any of these markers. Integrating a DMS into your practice can give you a powerful grip on the information used in your practice.
Can't Documents Take Care of Themselves?
People often ask me why they should invest in an application for document management when their homegrown method of naming files and saving them in shared folders works well already. The truth is, that system can work well for individuals, but it's not flexible enough for sharing documents among several people.
The biggest advantage of a DMS is increased productivity. No one enjoys frantically searching for a lost document. A DMS application can immediately find a document by entering only one of the markers. Because you're unlikely to stop producing electronic documents anytime soon, getting a handle on your document collection now makes sense—searching for a lost one is only going to get worse.
Many DMS applications also will index documents so that every word in every document is completely searchable. This feature will pay for itself when you need a document that you know references a specific phrase or word. A DMS application will also bolster the security and confidentiality capabilities of your law practice. If you have a document that should be accessible only to you and your secretary, you can lock everyone else out. This is helpful when a colleague must be screened out of a particular case or matter.
When you have several users in your office, document storage becomes important. Most DMS applications are installed on a networked server to give everyone access to all documents. Electronic document storage also is often much less expensive than physical storage of those documents in filing cabinets, boxes, or off-site storage facilities.
Another great advantage of using a DMS application is versioning. When you circulate review copies of electronic documents for revisions or comments, you can save the annotated documents as separate versions of the original document. Each version retains its own comments, and all contributors know which version is most current.
Overall, a DMS gives you better control over how documents are handled, secured, and stored. Most DMS applications allow you to "check out" documents when you travel so you can work on them locally (off the network) on a laptop. This effectively locks out others from making changes to the document while you're out of the office. When you get back into the office, simply check the documents back in and save them as either the original or updated version.
Choosers Can Be Picky
Don't feel overwhelmed at the thought of rolling out a DMS all by yourself. A project like this is not something to take lightly, and successful implementation requires cooperation from everyone in your office. Fortunately, technology consultants easily can walk you through the whole project. A reputable consultant has the experience and knowledge to make sure the DMS is a success, because this type of change must work properly right out of the box. A good consultant will take the time to observe the process you already have in place to coordinate it with the final implementation of the DMS.
The first step in DMS implementation is determining what information should be saved in the system. Word or WordPerfect documents are an obvious pick, but you also might consider saving e-mail messages, attachments, spreadsheets, and presentations. Many DMS applications will launch automatically when you hit the "Save," which ensures there are no strays hidden in folders or on hard drives. Also determine the field information that should be associated with each document; you don't want this to be too complicated, but each document should have at least a client/matter number, if only for internal uses. Other fields like author, date created, and document type can give users multiple options for narrowing down searches.
Lastly, consider the hardware requirements of a DMS. If you have several users that need access to the DMS, you may have to purchase an extra server to run the software properly.
A Superb DMS Choice
There are a variety of DMS applications on the market (the most prominent products are from Hummingbird, www.hummingbird.com, and iManage, www.imanage.com), but the best recommendation for small firms and solo practitioners is Worldox 2002 from World Software Corporation ($395 per concurrent user plus an additional annual user maintenance fee, www.worldox.com). Although it's possible for Worldox 2002 to run on your hard drive, this is not recommended because the application needs its own computer to effectively index documents. The biggest appeal of Worldox is that it doesn't require an SQL backend; if it did, you would need to hire someone with a database management certificate to effectively configure the system. (SQL is a specialized query language for databases that cost a good amount of money to implement.)
Worldox does a fantastic job saving e-mail messages and was ahead of the curve with the "drop-zone" feature, which lets you drag and drop messages to save them within the DMS. All DMS applications now offer this, given that e-mail messages are just as important as letters to clients. Many small firms and solo practices, however, get by just fine with the document management tools embedded within their case/practice/time management applications, such as Time Matters (www.timematters.com) and Amicus Attorney (www.amicusattorney.com).

Google in HawaiianUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Hilo
Director Media Relations
The University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo announces the development of a Hawaiian language interface for Google, the world's most popular Internet search engine.
The translation project is part of the Google in Your Language program, which encourages advocates of minority and indigenous languages to translate several of Google's products into their own languages. The translation was completed by Keola Donaghy, an assistant professor at Ka Haka ʻUla O Keʻelikōlani College of Hawaiian Language at UH Hilo.
"The addition of a Hawaiian language interface for Google is a tremendous development for Hawaiian speakers," said Dr. Kalena Silva, director of Ka Haka ʻUla O Keʻelikōlani. "Google is the most heavily-used search engine on the Internet, and from a practical and a symbolic standpoint, this interface puts Hawaiian on par with the many other languages that Google currently supports."
Searchers can select the Hawaiian language interface, see Google's commands and navigational text in Hawaiian, and conduct searches in Hawaiian. Search results and Web pages found by Google are not translated into Hawaiian. Additional software is not required. Searchers simply select Hawaiian as their language preference on Google.
The Hawaiian language interface is currently visible only to users of Apple's Safari Web browser who have selected ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi as their first language preference in their Macintosh OS X "International" preferences. The Hawaiian language interface will be available to users of other Web browsers soon.
Google has become the primary source of the world's information and being able to source this information through the medium of the Hawaiian language indicates that the Hawaiian language has purpose and relevance in today's information society," noted Te Taka Keegan, a lecturer at the University of Waikato in Aotearoa (New Zealand), indigenous language activist and part-time employee of Google. "It will undoubtedly give a sense of identity, pride, and promise for Hawaiian children (and parents) who are able to search and retrieve information through their indigenous language."
The staff of Ka Haka ʻUla O Keʻelikōlani and its Hale Kuamoʻo Hawaiian Language Center have been the source of many technology innovations, which have benefited speakers of Hawaiian: the translation of Netscape's Navigator Web browser into Hawaiian in 1998; the inclusion of a Hawaiian language keyboard and other Hawaiian language resources in Macintosh OS X in 2002; and the continuous work with technology vendors to strengthen the ability of Hawaiian speakers to use the language with these technologies.


text: Pete's Top Tales December 14, 2013 04:43 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Greg Peterson Machinery Pete Machinery Pete Email Twitter Some machines have legends bigger than themselves There are two aspects I've loved about covering auctions for the past 24 years. Of course, the first is price discovery—what is that piece of equipment worth? Second is the people. Auctions are events centered around people, and I've always loved talking about iron with folks from all over. There's so much to learn. The machinery discussion has really taken flight this past year with the explosive growth of our Machinery Pete Facebook page and "You Tube" channel. Both are ideal avenues to share machinery stories. Here are a few of my favorite tales from 2013, recounting the unique history behind each piece of equipment. Thanks to all of the readers who reached out to share their pictures and stories with me; keep 'em coming in 2014. To join in on the fun, visit www.facebook.com/machinerypete and www.youtube.com/machinerypete. You can e-mail Greg Peterson at firstname.lastname@example.com. School Bus Loads Hay Bales Dallas Henry from Highmore, S.D., shows how he and his two sons load dairy-quality alfalfa hay. "For four or five years, I've used this bus to load bales, which goes 20 to 25 mph in the field. I bought it reversed but have done a lot of modifications. The truck drivers I sell hay to love it," he says. It has an IHC 7.3-liter diesel engine and is geared with a four-speed Allison automatic transmission. 1957 Custom-Built Tractor A tip on Facebook led to a custom tractor located in Clear Lake, Iowa. Built by brothers Vince, Jim and Dale Schmitz from Ventura, Iowa, the tractor used to run dual two-row corn pickers and a John Deere No. 6 corn sheller. It also pulled two plows at once (a four- and five-bottom). It's built from three Farmall F30 tractors—two for the rear end and one for the tricycle front—with a Ford industrial motor from a 2-ton truck. In 1972, Bill Olson bought the tractor at auction for $1,500. Recently, Olson sold the tractor to Vince Schmitz's son, Bobby, who restored it to like-new. Tractor With 14 Hours Left Outside for 20 Years Folks across central and southern Ohio knew of this tractor—a John Deere 4960 bought new back in the day, then inexplicably left to sit. Legend has it the original owner shooed away the curious ... at the barrel of his shotgun. When the original owner passed away, Joe Young and his son, Ryan, of Rushville, Ohio, sprang into action. Ryan says the tractor showed 14.9 hours after he popped in a new battery. Amazingly, it started up fine. The cab still had plastic on the seat and cardboard on the floor—and the whiff of "new" tractor smell after 20 years. The Youngs had the hood replaced, as it had pitted out due to sap dripping on it. They also replaced the original tires. Now the tractor has a whopping 47 hours on it. A local dealer offered $100,000 for it. No dice. It sold for $72,000 new in April 1992. 1896 Golden Gate 7-hp Gas Engine: $200,000 Wow! That's about all I can say about the price tag for this rare 117-year-old gas engine sold at a collector auction in Lowden, Wash., on June 22, 2013. Here are the specifications on the engine: "1896 Golden Gate 7-hp vertical single-cylinder gasoline engine. Built in San Francisco by Adam Schilling & Sons; No. 4 stamped on head. Ted Small [an early engine collector] had a new aluminum piston built. Original piston included. Very likely has the original muffler; 52" flywheel; 291⁄2" wooden belt pulley with custom wood portion done by John Knapp. Procured from Phillip Ferguson at the homestead in the Cottonwood Creek Foothills. Originally used to grind seed. Ran when tested." 1978 IHC 4186 with 6 Hours Proof that I still haven't seen it all came on Aug. 20, 2013, at an online auction from east-central Michigan. This sale had equipment owned by a someone who had the habit of buying things … and then just not using them. His auction had three amazing items: 1978 International Harvester 4186 four-wheel-drive tractor (pictured) with 6 hours: $36,500 1980 International Harvester 4386 four-wheel-drive tractor with 498 hours: $43,450 1997 Ford F350 XL 4x4 pickup, regular cab, only 59 miles: $22,000 Maybe now I've seen it all. Field of Dreams in New York All across the country I've bumped into Kevin Sykes from Oriskany Falls, N.Y., who has been buying and selling low-hour John Deere tractors in outstanding condition. The picture is of Sykes' shed that is full of amazing tractors. Some of the tractors were bought as investments. For example, in 1994, Sykes purchased a 1991 John Deere 4455 with 33 hours for $58,000. He sold the tractor in 2012 for $155,000 to a buyer from Mexico. Even after another interested buyer showed up the next day with a briefcase filled with $175,000 in cash, Kevin kept his word and shipped the tractor to the buyer in Mexico. 20 Custom-Built Hay Wagons Pulled by an International Harvester 1206 In late October, Ed Timm of Michigan sent me a picture with this description via Facebook: "My brother (Chuck Timm) has been building a hay wagon every year for the past 20 years. Here are all 20 in a row. He just keeps building them and adding to his collection. He uses old front and rear truck axles for the running gear and lumber from old power poles for the racks." How cool is that? Sticking with something so unique like this for 20 years. What was even more amazing was the video of all 20 custom-built hay wagons being pulled by Chuck Timm's International Harvester 1206 tractor. Back to news

The next seminar in the Black Church Studies (BCS) Program's four-weekend seminar series, Contemporary Issues in the Black Church, will be held on October 12-13 at Louisville Seminary. Dr. Dianne Reistroffer, Professor of Ministry and Director of Field Education and Methodist Studies, will lead Child Advocacy and Education in the Black Church. These seminars, held on campus and open to the public, also will explore such topics as prosperity preaching and social ethics in contemporary African American churches.
"I am excited about these seminars because we believe they will introduce students to some of the seminal issues in African American churches," said Dr. Lewis Brogdon, Director of the Black Church Studies Program and Assistant Professor of New Testament and Black Church Studies.
The other seminars include:
Prosperity Preaching and the Black Church |
Dr. Debra Mumford |
February 15-16, 2013 |
(6-8 p.m. Friday/10-4 p.m. Sat.)
The Black Church and Social Ethics |
Dr. Scott Williamson |
April 12-13, 2013 |
(6-8 p.m. Friday/10-4 p.m. Sat.)
The BCS program also has reduced the cost and number of seminars required for those who wish to attend the seminars as part of the Black Church Studies Certificate program. The entire program, which now requires participating in six rather than eight weekend seminars, will cost $100, down from $350.
"We understand the difficult economic climate in which we live and we don't want finances to prevent someone from participating in the certificate program," said Dr. Lewis, adding that the changes reflect a desire to make the program more accessible to local church leaders. The seminars are held on weekends to allow busy pastors, professionals, lay leaders, and former seminary students to complete the certificate program with minimal disruption in their schedules.
The Black Church Studies Program, launched in 2008, offers three tracks of study: a concentration in the Master of Divinity or in the Master of Arts (Religion) degree programs, a concentration in the Doctor of Ministry degree program, and a certificate program for students not enrolled in a degree program.
"These seminars promise an integrated learning environment that benefits all students," said Brogdon, noting that students pursuing a degree take the seminars alongside men and women in the certificate studies program. "Our hope is that the classes be racially integrated as well. Black and non-black students can benefit from a course of study like this. Everyone is welcome at the table of theological discourse."

text: Fashion Designer M Missoni ClothesToday, it's world-renowned as a high-end clothing label with an insatiable love of zigzags, luxe knit fabrics, and geometric shapes — but Missoni actually started from very humble beginnings. Founded in the 1950s by Italian husband-and-wife team Ottavio and Rosita Missoni, the company began as a basement studio workshop anchored by two knitting machines and a collection of ideas. Word about Missoni's bold, innovative patterns gradually spread among the fashion-following public — eventually reaching legendary Vogue editor Diana Vreeland, who promoted the brand in the pages of her magazine. Launched in 1998, M Missoni offers a more accessible alternative to the main Missoni brand. The label's bold zigzag knit dresses, faux leather leggings, canvas horoscope tote bags, crochet-knit swimwear, and solid-color cardigans are just as stylish as what you'll find in Missoni's primary collections, but are less expensive and a bit more playful.

Scott Findlay subjected young mother to harrowing sex attack & punched her while she cradled 6-week-old baby
A MAN who raped a young mother and repeatedly punched her as she cradled a six-week-old baby in her arms has been jailed.
Scott Findlay subjected his victim to a "prolonged and harrowing" attack in front of her two young children.
Today, at York Crown Court, Judge Simon Hickey sent the 27-year-old, from Ferryhill, in County Durham, to prison for 15 years for offences including rape, assault occasioning actual bodily harm and threats to kill.
The court heard that the victim pleaded with Findlay, who was armed with a kitchen knife, for her children to be prevented from seeing the attack.
Speaking after sentencing, Detective Constable Katrina Meisuria, of Durham Constabulary's Safeguarding Unit, praised the victim for her courage in giving evidence.
She said: "Scott Findlay subjected his victim to a prolonged, harrowing and violent attack in front of her two young children.
"It took great bravery by the victim to provide evidence at court reliving those events again.
"There is no doubt these crimes have had a life-changing effect on the victim and her children, but the conviction will provide the family with the opportunity to move forward".
In a statement released through the police, the victim said: "This has been an extremely difficult time for me and my family.
"The incidents occurred only six weeks after the birth of my daughter who was in my arms as Scott Finlay repeatedly punched me about the head and my seven-year-old looked on in terror begging for him to stop hurting his mammy.
"No child should ever have to witness such an attack".
She added: "My family and I are pleased with the outcome and relieved it is finally over and we can move forward to rebuilding our life".
After a four-day trial at Durham Crown Court in May, a jury found Findlay guilty of three counts of rape, one count of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and one count of making threats to kill.
He had earlier pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, driving while disqualified and criminal damage.

Man attacked staff with a traffic cone at petrol station
Police are appealing for information after a man was assaulted with a traffic cone at a petrol station in Newcastle.
At around 12.05pm on Monday afternoon police received a report that a staff member at the Shell garage on the Great North Road in Gosforth had been assaulted with a traffic cone.
The male offender had filled up a motorcycle with fuel but was challenged by staff when it appeared that he would not pay for the fuel.
He became aggressive and then assaulted the staff member with a traffic cone before fleeing the scene on foot in the direction of The Three Mile Inn.
The victim of the assault was later taken to hospital with a suspected broken nose and cheekbone. It is also believed the motorcycle the offender left at the garage was stolen.
Enquiries into the incident are ongoing and police are now appealing for help from the public to identify the offender.
He is described as wearing all black with a white motorcycle helmet that had the visor down.
Officers also want to speak to any witnesses to the incident as there were a number of people on the garage forecourt who police have still not spoken to.
They are also keen to speak to any motorists who may have dash-cam footage showing the motorcycle in question.
Anyone who knows the man, or witnessed the incident on Monday, is encouraged to contact police on 101 quoting log 423 13/08/18 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
You can also email the OIC on [email protected] or report online at www.northumbria.police.uk/contact.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — A court has ordered a psychiatric examination of a man accused of planning to detonate a bomb in front of Poland's Parliament building.
On a request from prosecutors, a court in the southern city of Krakow on Tuesday ordered four weeks of observation at a mental hospital for the man, identified only as Brunon K, who was arrested in November.
Investigators said the 45-year-old chemist, employed at the University of Agriculture in Krakow, was driven by nationalistic and anti-Semitic views when he allegedly planned to put four tons of explosives in a car and detonate them outside the Parliament building while President Bronislaw Komorowski, Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Cabinet ministers and lawmakers were inside.

Mass. trust company opening NH officeBy MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader
July 28. 2014 7:53PM
MANCHESTER — Favorable state laws regarding trusts has encouraged Fiduciary Company Inc. of Boston to form a New Hampshire-chartered trust company to cater mainly to wealthy individuals and families, officials told the Union Leader on Monday.
Fiduciary Trust Company of New England is setting up shop at 1155 Elm St. to handle predominately customers with at least $2 million in liquid assets.
"The bottom line is, New Hampshire since 2006 has really revamped its trust and tax laws such as that New Hampshire is really recognized now as one of the premier, if not the premier jurisdictions for administering trusts," said Thanda Fields Brassard, vice president and general counsel for the New Hampshire trust company.
President & CEO Michael Costa said staffing levels haven't been determined for the Manchester office, which is expected to open in September.
Costa said the business chose Manchester to be close to the concentration of financial and law firms in the state's largest city. Law firms are an important source of referrals, he said.
A change in state law that took effect in 2013 means New Hampshire trusts no longer pay a 5 percent tax on income derived from the trusts, Brassard said. That is "pretty unusual and very advantageous" particularly to dynasty trusts that can last indefinitely, she said.
Costa said the New Hampshire trust company expects to attract customers outside the state.
Brassard said, "The East Coast would probably have the most initial interest. I think New Hampshire, New York and New England is probably where we're focusing on right now."
Fiduciary Trust, its Massachusetts affiliate, plans to review its Massachusetts customers to see if some may have their trusts transferred to New Hampshire.
The 2006 law also allows for the creation of trusts that protect assets from many creditors.
J. Spencer Culp, who works on trusts at the New Hampshire Banking Department, said the state has 29 trust companies today compared to 18 in 2006.
"It appears to us that the Legislature, they intended to make the state more attractive to these companies, and it looks like the legislation is having its intended effect," Culp said.
Costa said the sweet spot of its customer base is "typically $5 million to $10 million, and at that range the client is able to take advantage of the full range of service we provide."
Fiduciary Trust has more than $11.7 billion of assets under supervision.

Pregnant ladies aren't entirely as delicate as common opinion would have us believe. After all, they'll be pushing out an entire little person at the end of that third trimester—if that isn't resilience, we don't know what is! Nevertheless, there are still certain things you should not do to an expectant mother—tasing being very high on that list. But that did not stop Seattle police from tasing a pregnant woman three times after she was pulled over for speeding, according to the New York Times.
Malaika Brooks was seven-months-pregnant and taking her 11-year-old son to school when she was stopped for driving at 32 mph; the speed limit was 20 mph. Although Malaika said that she would accept a ticket, she refused to sign it because she wrongly believed that doing so would be an acknowledgment of guilt. And while that is not the case, refusal to sign a ticket is a crime.
Plus: Police Officer Kicks Pregnant Woman in the Stomach
The police summoned a sergeant, who instructed them to arrest her. When Malaika would not get out of the car, one of the officers took out a taser and asked her whether she knew what it was. Malaika did not. "I have to go to the bathroom," she said instead. "I am pregnant. I'm less than 60 days from having my baby."
In a petition the police submitted to the Supreme Court, they describe Malaika as a "large (230 pounds), strong woman" and that while the "plaintiff had claimed to be pregnant" it was a claim that "the officers could not objectively verify due to the plaintiff's size." The police proceeded to tase Malaika's left thigh, causing her to cry out and honk the car horn. She was tased two more times, in her left arm and neck, before falling over. The police officers then dragged her into the street, laying Malaika on her stomach while handcuffing her hands behind her back.
Plus: Woman in Labor Kicked Out of Cab, Delivers Alone on Sidewalk
Thankfully, Malaika's baby was unharmed—she gave birth to a healthy baby girl. But she sued the police officers involved in the incident over the intense pain and permanent scars they had caused. The police ultimately won the court case, though the majority ruled that while the officers were immune to Malaika's claim, they did indeed use excessive force. It was seen as a warning that any future use of tasers by the police force might cross a constitutional line. The police appealed to the Supreme Court to overturn the lower court ruling in an attempt to clear their names and preserve the unrestricted use of "a useful pain technique."
What do you think of the case? Do you think that the police officers had no choice but to tase this woman or did they go too far?

Eyelock's Jeff Carter Says Yes.
Innovation is the key to your company's survival, no matter what industry you are in. It must be an integral part of your organization. But what exactly is innovation in this industry?
For the vast majority of financial services companies, innovation is not just limited to disruptive technology changes, which seem to be the domain of nonbanks. Innovation in financial services includes shifts that improve all products, services and support mechanisms such as infrastructure, marketing and sales channels.
Heading into 2008, the banking sector was at the forefront of innovation. BusinessWeek even highlighted groundbreaking efforts such as Bank of America's Center for Future Banking, where I was an executive, as "the way to innovate." And then the financial crisis hit and entirely changed how we view innovation in banking.
These days, a typical reaction to any mention of financial innovation is: "Didn't financial innovation cause the crisis by creating hard-to-understand financial instruments?" or "Does the world really need more financial innovation? Shouldn't we be focusing elsewhere?"
There is no doubt that some innovations in the industry did deviate from their original purpose and did, in fact, contribute to the crisis. But many academic studies have confirmed the benefits of financial innovation and its importance to the development of financial systems. Financial innovation can address many of society's challenges. New, service-minded offerings that continually assess and aid customers' financial health, for example, would be great for the industry and its customers.
But while innovation typically adds value, it also can have a negative or destructive effect as new developments clear away or change old organizational structures and practices. Innovation often stems from completely new thinking, which many leaders cannot embrace. Organizations that do not innovate effectively may be destroyed by those that do.
That risk is heightened for the banking industry, where the tremendous value in consumer banking and in the payment space makes for an attractive target for nonbank competitors attempting to enter the industry. This is why I believe a call for innovative, fresh thinking is so critical today. For four years since the financial crisis, banks have been heads-down focused on efficiency, cost cutting and in the worst cases, simple survival. But the rest of the world isn't waiting for banks to bounce back. The perfect example of this: Apple. Since unveiling the iPhone in January 2007, Apple has obtained the No. 1 market position in its industry, disrupting many other industries in the process. It is quite possible that banking will be next. A recent study found that 43 percent of U.S. and U.K. Apple product owners would dump their current bank for Apple.
Banks historically were insulated from competitive threats due to the need for a local presence (e.g. branches). This, of course, has changed. With technology and nonbank businesses providing new options for safeguarding and managing people's finances, customers will continue to depend on banks only so long as banks can provide service and value that cannot be found anywhere else.
There are so many pressures now on banks' operating models: consolidation trends, regulation, industry specialization, changing workforce needs, "shadow" banks, retailers and new technology. Yet the innovation imperative remains.
As we enter 2013, the banking sector must revive its will to innovate-rethinking what, where and how it serves an increasingly informed and demanding customer base. Those banks unable to adapt in time and develop and execute a credible strategy will be at risk. But as we turn the page on another year, taking us further from the difficult events of 2008, I have great faith in the industry to awaken and answer the call.

Redskins overpowered by Bath in WBL matchup
Other than the early moments of the game, the closest the Wapakoneta Redskins could have gotten to the Bath Wildcats was trailing by six points at half-time.
With Bath leading 23-15, senior guard Alex Greve drained a shot from the foul line as the buzzer sounded but the referee waved off the shot and the gap remained at eight.
Bath took control in the third period outscoring the Redskins 23-7, with all but one scoring opportunity a simple basket as they outdistanced Wapak, 66-32. The loss drops the Redskins to 5-5 on the season and 0-2 in the Western Buckeye League, while the Wildcats improve to 8-2 and 2-0.
"First of all, Bath is really good and credit them with being ready to play tonight (Friday) and we were not," Redskin varsity coach Matt Bradley said after the game. "All week we stressed, 'You gotta handle pressure, you gotta handle pressure, you gotta handle pressure' and it seemed as soon the lights came it was like everything we worked on all week just left."
From the onset of the game, Bath varsity coach Doug Davis had the Wildcats on the prowl with a full-court press which frustrated the Redskins and their attempt to run their half-court offense. Davis continued the trapping in half-court, pushing the Wapak guards further away from the basket forcing them into either long-range shots and disrupting their passing lanes.
Bradley praised Bath's quickness, length and effort in besting his squad.
Bradley also felt fortunate his team was still in the game at half. Wapak shot 5-of-14 from the field, or 35.7 percent, and 2-of-6, or 33.3 percent, from beyond the arc. While Bath got off more shots, they struggled hitting only 9-of-27 from the field, or 33.3 percent, and 3-of-15 from 3-point range, or 20 percent.
"I thought we rebounded pretty well in the first half, I thought we got out on the shooters pretty good in the first half, but when we can't run any offense because we can't get the ball past half court we are not going to stay close because they have so many weapons," Bradley said. "If we could beat the pressure, we could get the ball inside and that is what we told them all week."
The third period doomed the Redskins. Bath hit 7-of-11 from the floor, or 63.6 percent, while the Redskins put up only five shots. Bath hit 4-of-7 from the field and two of the three field goals came with a foul shot which was made.
"Our defense got us the lead in the first half and our offense picked up," Davis said. "In the third period, I think our traps really started to bother them and (Alex) Greve's foul trouble — he is definitely their best ball handler — and when he played with four fouls he had to play a little cautious and played careful. I thought it was our traps and the rotation of the other players when we trapped caused them trouble."
Bath limited the Redskins to nine shots in the fourth period when they called off the full-court pressure. They shot only eight times, but made six including two from 3-point territory.
Logan Rockhold led the way for the Wildcats with 18 points, scoring nine in the first period. Taren Sullivan scored 11 points in the game, with eight in the first half, while Cole Chambers scored all nine of his points in the second half.
Wapak senior post Jake Buzzard led the Redskins with 13 points, most coming from the block. He also had 10 rebounds and three blocked shots.
Greve contributed with his 5 points and three players scored three in the game including sophomore guard Kodi Morgan and junior posts Kaleb Miller and Alec Temple. Temple also grabbed six rebounds, four on the defensive end.
"The thing about Temple that I really appreciate is he wants to be good, and he will take the things we coach him up in practice and try to put that into play," Bradley said. "I thought defensively in the second half he did a good job of holding his ground and getting the rebound and not just flinging the outlet pass, but being strong with it. He is working hard to get posted up on the offense.
"I think the more minutes he can play regardless of the situation are good for him," the coach said. "It will pay off in the end."
Others to score for the Redskins were senior guard Travis Bertram with a bucket and junior guard Brandon Erb with a basket in the third period and junior Jake Bruns with a free throw in the fourth period.
Next week the Redskins host the Celina Bulldogs, who lost 63-40 to the Defiance Bulldogs.

TRIPOLI, Libya, Aug. 18 (UPI) -- Libya's oil and gas minister says the closure of the country's oil ports has resulted in massive economic losses.
During a press conference Saturday in the Libyan capital Tripoli, Oil and Gas Minister Abdel-Barri Arrousi told reporters that since July 25 the nation had lost nearly $1.6 billion in oil revenues as a result of the shutdown, adding that a further consequence would be a loss of trust with international buyers due to a lack of reliability, while the breaking of contracts will result in massive lawsuits.
The stoppage began when strikers closed down export operations at Es Sider and Ras Lanuf, Libya's two main crude oil export terminals, resulting in a combined loss of about 600,000 barrels per day for the two eastern ports. Speaking July 31, Aroussi added that the eastern ports of Marsa al-Brega and Marsa al-Hariga had also been shut down.
"If the situation continues like this, Libya will plunge into darkness," he said.
The ministry said Libyan oil exports now stand at a paltry 330,000 bpd, with the country struggling to return oil output to pre-revolution levels of an estimated 1.65 million bpd. Only Ras Lanuf has restarted oil exports, Libya TV reported Saturday.
In the wake of popular unrest beginning in February 2011 against the regime of Moammar Gadhafi, Libyan oil and natural gas exports went through a near-total disruption during months of intense fighting with the country's minimal and sporadic oil production being consumed domestically. The U.S. State Department said oil accounted for about 95 percent of Libya's export earnings, 75 percent of its government receipts and 25 percent of its gross domestic product prior to the 2011 political unrest.
Libyan oil production slowly began to recover in September 2011 following the overthrow of Gadhafi's regime and the gradual consolidation of control over most parts of the country by the Transitional National Council and affiliated rebel militias.
Libya is a member of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, exporting mostly high-quality light, sweet crude oil.
Libya holds the largest proven oil reserves in Africa and is an important contributor to the global supply of light, sweet crude. Following the outbreak of the strikes, OPEC in its August monthly report stated that "due to unrest" the Mediterranean oil market has tightened because of the absence of "at least" 500,000 bpd of Libyan crude. The Libya Herald said foreign oil companies operating in Libya, including Germany's Wintershall and Italy's Eni, expect disruptions to continue, even as the newspaper reported that the situation at export terminals is not just a labor issue, but about "autonomous control over energy production in the east of Libya."
Libya's oil production remains affected by ongoing concerns about security conditions, government stability, political institutions, the return of foreign capital and expertise, contract terms and industry oversight. In the worst terrorist incident since the overthrow of Gadhafi, terrorists in Libya's restive eastern city of Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012, killed four Americans, including the ambassador to Libya.

6 Little-Known Driving Tips That Could Save Your Life
Driving a car, or getting run over by one, is still one of the most popular ways to get killed in the modern world. Despite the fact that cars are safer than ever, they are still driven by human beings who, let's face it, often have trouble retaining even the minimal techniques and rules required to operate a vehicle.
But if you're reading this, hopefully it means that you are intent on doing what it takes to survive in a world full of such drivers by being just a little more careful. So for you, here are some advanced tips that everyone should know, even if most people don't ...
#6. Don't Have Your Car Visible Anywhere in Your Mirrors
This is one of those things that takes next to zero effort to do right, but that almost everyone does wrong.
You hopefully already know that the "blind spot" is the name for the area on either side of a car that is invisible to wing mirrors. It's such a frequent cause of accidents that higher-end car models have adopted fancy radar or camera systems capable of detecting other vehicles in your blind spots and delivering the information to you in furiously urgent beep-screams as you swerve in terror and/or crash anyway.
Just gritting your teeth and flooring it isn't the answer.
Just gritting your teeth and flooring it isn't the answer.
However, the technology isn't the problem -- the necessary equipment to eliminate blind spots was around back when Henry Ford was still producing cars and anti-Semitic newsletters. All you need are your car's wing mirrors -- which most people have adjusted incorrectly.
You see, blind spots can be put into full view of your side mirrors, provided that these mirrors are adjusted to contain no part of your own car. Just angle them away from you until the point where your car is no longer visible in either one, and leave them there. That way, there's no overlap between them and the rearview mirror, and any car that's passing you on either side will remain in at least one of your mirrors until it enters your field of vision.
Admittedly, this seems less like a "tip" and more like "the most obvious piece of instruction of all time," but nobody freaking does it. Manufacturers have to let you adjust the mirrors (due to things like differences in driver height), and most people simply don't know how to do it. That's why those same engineers are spending millions on technology meant to eliminate blind spots -- they have simply failed to teach people not to point their goddamned mirrors at the sides of the vehicle they're attached to.
5 more tips after the break
#5. Pay More Attention to Traffic Than Road Signs
If you saw someone blow past a yield sign into traffic and vanish in an explosion of steel and glass not unlike one of the Iron Giant's volcanic diarrheas, you'd be tempted to blame the crash on the driver who ignored the road sign.
But what if the yield sign wasn't there, like those intersections where there's nothing but an esoteric flashing yellow light and everyone stops and stares at each other? There would probably still be the odd person who flies through, but average drivers would become extremely cautious as a result of having no clear instruction of what to do. They would instead just intuit their next move based on the traffic around them, which is kind of the point of stoplights and road signs to begin with -- to force you to stop and look.
"What the hell does 'yield' mean, anyway?!"
"What the hell does 'yield' mean, anyway?!"
In other words, you may be better off without the signs.
There are experts who believe that the overabundance of signs and signals just make you complacent, because you're fixated on blindly following instructions printed on reflective metal rather than not killing your fellow drivers. And we've all seen it happen -- drivers with a green light will plow through an intersection and T-bone another car that was clearly in their path, simply because the pretty colored light told them they had the right of way. And think about how people will lose their freaking minds if traffic and/or weather conditions have them driving slower than the posted speed limit, routinely causing accidents by trying to weave their way back up to maximum warp, even though the speed limit is literally just a number on a sign that takes absolutely nothing into consideration beyond what a few civil engineers came up with on a calculator 30 years ago.
"15 mph is fast enough for anyone. Those buggy drivers are out of control."
"15 mph is fast enough for anyone. Those buggy drivers are out of control."
The Dutch city of Drachten decided to test out the theory by replacing 20 four-way intersections with 20 roundabouts free of any road signage, and the results were surprisingly nothing like The Cannonball Run. One intersection that typically killed two to four people every year saw no injuries for the next six years, and another intersection went from 36 accidents in the previous four years to just two in two years. All this just from putting more responsibility into the hands of drivers and forcing them to interact with each other in the absence of indifferent commands from stoplights and signs (although it could also be related to the fact that nobody in the Netherlands has a The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift poster on their bedroom wall).
Since the success in Drachten, a number of other cities have tried out similar concepts, most notably London, whose recently debuted Exhibition Road looks like the guy in charge of painting lines on the streets was tripping balls that day.
The Guardian
We're still not clear on how this is supposed to help, but there you are.
We're still not clear on how this is supposed to help, but there you are.
We're not saying that you should ignore stoplights and road signs, but that you shouldn't rely on them to make every decision for you. Just because you had the right of way at an intersection won't make you any less dead if you pull in front of an 18 wheeler, and refusing to slow down for pedestrians because they aren't crossing in a designated crosswalk won't put you any less in jail if you chop them in half with your Daewoo.
Or maybe we should just put it this way: Obey the signs, but assume that nobody else is doing so.
#4. Listening to Techno Makes Your Driving Worse
Every car comes with a stereo and speakers, but you don't find much in driving manuals about what you should or shouldn't do with them. So it's easy to assume that it's safe to bump some jams while driving, as long as you're focused on the road and not constantly messing with the knobs or looking at yourself in the rearview mirror while you're singing. But research shows that your tunes are probably making you a worse driver, even if you just like a little ambient music in your Prelude.
"These whale songs are so ... *yawn* ... so ..."
"These whale songs are so ... *yawn* ... so ..."
An Israeli study connected test subjects to heart monitors and put them through a driving simulator while they listened to music of varying tempos. A no-music control group experienced significant heart rate fluctuation while driving -- that is, their heart sped up when things got exciting, like if a moose turned up in the street or something. But those who were listening to any type of music saw their heart rate stay level (except during the Les Miserables soundtrack, when their heart rates soared with bittersweet triumph).
At first glance, this suggests that the drivers who were listening to music were more calm, and thus more careful drivers than the control group. But it was the opposite -- the music group Dukes of Hazzarded their way through the virtual driving course like they were running moonshine for a one-legged banjo player. They were calm (maybe), but only because they were less focused on driving than the control group -- they were placated by the music.
Which is why your creepy uncle always told you that mood music was the key.
Which is why your creepy uncle always told you that mood music was the key.
The study also showed that drivers who were listening to higher-tempo music (between 120 and 140 beats per minute, the speed of most dance and techno music) were twice as likely to blast through red lights and had twice as many accidents as those who were listening to slower music or the deafening echo of their own thoughts. Drivers who were listening to dubstep were 84 percent more likely to believe that there was a Transformer behind them trying to mate with their car.

That's My Boy
The magical R-rating is both a gift and a curse to Adam Sandler's signature brand of lowbrow humor. In That's My Boy, the comedian returns to the dim-witted roots that made him a star in early outings like Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore (complete with high-pitched, mushmouth accent), but with a ramped up "ew" factor. Unrestrained, Sandler piles on as many expletives and gross-out scenarios as a two-hour movie can hold and it works out quite well. With costar Samberg nailing the disgusted straight man role, Sandler's penchant for acting like a fool is enhanced by the sick stylings of director Sean Anders (Sex Drive) and only occasionally teetering into truly offensive territory. Laughs aren't guaranteed, but the movie provokes (which is a big step up from Jack and Jill).
Back in the '80s, Donny had a secret relationship with his teacher Ms. McGarricle that resulted in a son, Han Solo (he's a middle schooler, what do you expect?). The torrid affair put McGarricle in jail, Donny into celebrity tabloid spotlight and Han Solo in the hands of a tween father. Thirty years later, everyone's screwed up: Donny (Adam Sandler) is a drunk on the brink of jail time for tax evasion, McGarricle's still in jail, and Han Solo (Andy Samberg), now "Todd," is a successful number-cruncher with severe social issues. On the weekend of Todd's wedding, Donny reenters his life, hoping to bring revive their relationship and reunite him with his mother that is, on camera, so Donny can make $50,000 from a gossip TV show and stay out of the slammer. Posing as Todd's long-lost best friend, Donny stirs up trouble, becoming buddies with Todd's friends and family and acting like a imbecile.
The wedding setup is overdone, but always prime for comedy: plenty for a numbskull to screw up, logical progression (there's a wedding at the end!) and a bachelor party scene to squeeze in the most disgusting bits and have them make sense. That's My Boy makes the most of its conventions including what we all know and expect from a Sandler comedy by continually one-upping itself. After a night of heavy drinking at the local strip club/omelette bar that results in do-it-yourself ear piercing and robbing a convenience store with Vanilla Ice, Todd returns home to expel the night's worth of drinking all over his fiancee's wedding dress. Then he makes love to the dress. Then his fiancee (Leighton Meester) wakes up to find the dress. Then it goes even further than one would care to imagine. Grossed out yet? Amazingly, lower-than-low brow material is handled with clever timing and great delivery. It's just that the foundation is bodily fluids.
That's My Boy falters when it throws in gags that serve zero purpose to the story. Strange racist humor, a mentally retarded bar patron played by Nick Swardson (a Sandler mainstay), random allusions to Todd Bridges' drug habits barrel-scraping one-offs that have nothing to do with the movie. At two hours, the movie needs slimming and the fat is apparent. Thankfully, the main ensemble goes to great lengths to make the hard R comedy click, with Sandler and Samberg playing well off each other (although Samberg doesn't have the making of a leading man after this movie), and SNL alums like Will Forte, Rachel Dratch, and Ana Gasteyer driving by to bring the funny. Even Vanilla Ice's extended cameo fits the anything-goes tone, playing a version of himself that befriended Donny in his celebrity days. Now he works at an ice skating rink.
After a few lame ducks, That's My Boy is a return to form for Sandler. It wavers in quality, but it has energy and color. A cash-in this is not, and for any Sandler fan with a stomach for hardcore bathroom humor, it's a must-see.

Dear David from Georgia:
I want to thank you for the email you sent last week. It made me laugh out loud.
It seems you were unhappy I took a shot at Rush Limbaugh a few days back. Limbaugh had argued that John Lewis might have avoided having his skull fractured by Alabama state troopers while protesting for voting rights in Selma, Ala., 48 years ago, if only he'd been armed. I suggested, tongue in cheek, that Limbaugh would have given the same advice to Rosa Parks, who famously refused to surrender her seat to a white man on a Montgomery, Ala., bus.
