2nd night of Berkeley protest turns violent again
Protesters shut down freeway
2nd night of Berkeley protest turns violent again
Protesters shut down freeway
BERKELEY, Calif. —
A second straight night of protests in Berkeley over police killings in Missouri and New York led to at least five arrests and left two officers with minor injuries.
Demonstrators vandalized businesses and even fought with each other. CHP officers fired tear gas after protesters targeted them with rocks and bottles and tried to light a patrol vehicle on fire.
Officials said the protest began peacefully on the UC Berkeley campus but eventually grew rowdy and spilled into Oakland. Activists made their way onto a freeway and blocked traffic.
The unrest that marked protests Saturday night was touched off again as someone smashed the window of a Radio Shack. When a protester tried to stop growing vandalism, he was hit with a hammer.

Disclaimer: Expect my brash brand of dark humor and curse words.
Why this happened: I blame my father for making me watch this. Neither one of us had ever seen it and tonight we ran out of decent football. SVB was playing on demand. We gave it an honest try. And just like everyone else, we spent most of the movie wondering just what in the Sam hell was going on.
Direction: I thought this movie was going to be good. It seemed like a perfectly good idea. I absolutely loved 300. When I heard that this movie was directed by the same dude, I thought I was going to get epic storytelling and crazy action scenes. The director and writers fell short on all accounts.
Plot: The movie starts out in a state of confusion. First of all, we're at a party. Lex Luther's party. Lex Luther is a boob. The actor who plays him decides to play one of the most respected criminal masterminds in DC Comic history as a frat-boy psychopath. He looks like he's trying to do an impersonation or Heath Ledger's Joker and he's failing badly, like maybe he didn't take enough drugs or he took the wrong ones. I don't know. He just didn't pull it off. He lacked conviction, like even he couldn't understand why Lex would be crazy beyond some lame-ass random comment about being beat by his father. Yes, because all victims of child abuse turn out to be psychopaths.
As always, Superman is having an identity crisis. This time his alter-ego, Clark Kent, is using all his Daily Planet resources to go after Batman, who he thinks is a reckless endangerment to democracy. Basically, how dare Batman behave as though he's above the law. Superman is the strongest man on earth, and he doesn't even hold himself above the law. Except when he's doing shit like kidnapping criminals, threatening bodily harm or otherwise engaging in law enforcement activities without a lick of approval from the governed. According to Superman, only he, the holy perfect one, is worthy of administering justice.
The rest of the world has a problem with that. There are political movements trying to pin Superman's cape to the ground, and as I mentioned before he decides to take it out on Batman (which is really, really silly logic. Even for super heroes.) On the flipside, Batman is going through some dark times (when is he not?). Still, he's Batman. And Batman is doing his Batman shit. He's collecting clues, he's zip-lining around Gotham, and feeding people their knees caps. He's already aware that something hinky is going with Lex Luther. What Lex Luther is up to is the major plot, but the story is told in short random clips smooshed in-between weird fanfare.
Fanfare. That is the real problem with this film. There's too much fanfare and not enough storytelling.
It's shitty writing, a director with no chain to hold him in line, and a lack of time management. Too much time wasted on things like close-ups of Batman's car. Oh, and Wonder Woman was mostly irrelevant the entire movie. I understand the first cameo (to introduce her character). I see no other purpose in the string of wardrobe changes that came between that first encounter with Bruce Wayne and her showing up to help face off against the monster at the end. It was like the director just enjoyed filming that actress. They spent so much time dedicated to propping up the next DC Franchise (Justice League) that vital information didn't make it into the movie.
All that time dedicated on irrelevant things could've been spent explaining the following:
- A) How did Batman know that Superman was the one sending him all the hate mail about his family? How does that even sound like Superman? Does that squeaky clean vanilla swirl really seem like the type to send you a cowardly hate letter? Really? Also, is Batman really the kind of guy who gets all flustered over anonymous bullying?
- B) Where did Lex Luther discover all this hidden alien technology? You know the technology he uses to summon that almost indestructible monster that rages through the last third of the movie like a massively deformed CGI Sméagol? What's the story with that?
- C) Why does Lois Lane matter…at all? Does she simply exist to be thrown off buildings?
- D) Why did Batman throw a "priceless spear tipped with irreplaceable alien technology" over his shoulder after he almost killed Superman? Why does that sound like something Batman would do? Why would he leave such a precious toy in an abandoned building only to go back for it later?
- E) Why did Lois feel the need to toss the spear in the pool? Was that so she could get trapped under a piece of cement after she realized what a stupid idea that was? Had she not already proven how useless females are supposed to be in the comic book universe?
- F) Is the name Martha like a secret control word? Do warring enemies just utter that word to one another and all is forgiven? They're instant best friends? It's that easy? Really?
- G) Also, what the hell was the deal with the vision of the future? At some point, Batman has a vision or a message from in the future. That vision reveals that Superman isn't to be trusted and that Lois Lane is the key to…I guess, his humanity. That's it, that's all we learn about that plot point and it's never discussed again or resolved. Still have no idea what that was about.
Action Scenes/Set/Costume: The big fight between Superman and Batman was okay. It lacked emotional impact because the build up around the conflict and the conflict itself were really cheap. Like the writer's couldn't figure out a real reason Batman and Superman might fight. Everything else was fine. I think Batman's costume was a bit much, but I never really care about those kinds of things.
Additional Comments: The holy trinity involved in the production of this movie (casting, director, and writers) need to be shot in the leg. Casting needs to be shot in both legs and a foot. That skinny trollop looks nothing like Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman is supposed to be the most athletic woman in the world. The perfect female specimen. The perfect WARRIOR. Why does she look like she doesn't have the strength to lift a fork to her mouth? Why are all the men strong and athletic and the woman are waif-like and meek looking? Because Hollywood is run by misogynistic pigs, and actresses like her, who let themselves get forced to the role of Bond girl, feed into that system like stupid sheep. Beautiful stupid sheep.
Also, I'm not a fan of Ben as Batman. I enjoyed him as Daredevil. I will always champion him as Daredevil. Batman? No. Not his thing. He can't pull off the suit, makes Batman look like he has no neck. I'd mention the actress who played Lois Lane, but she's part of the problem and mostly forgettable in this film.
Lex Luther is a boob. Alfred drinks on the job (which seems wildly inappropriate for his character.) And the only actor who did a decent job was Superman. (And that really burns me because everyone knows I hate Superman.)
Final Rating: I hope the people who allowed this movie to be made are sent to a special version of hell where they're forced to watch it for all eternity. That's real justice.

I have been putting together a set of Gretsch vintage drums. from the early 1970′s. These drums are referred to as Gretsch Stop Sign #1. This refers to the shape of the logo badge that is on every drum. In the 60′s the badge was round so those drums are referred to as Round Badge.
Gretsch drums from this time period had their own sound and is much sought after in the vintage drum market. So far I have 8×12, 9×13, 14×14 and 16×16 toms. All I need now is a 14×22 bass drum. The problem is that I can't find one that works for my needs. So the hunt continues. I'll post photos when it is all done but there is no telling how long this is going to take.
Work continues on The Ratchilds album. I've been working on a new band that we hope to have out playing shows very soon. More on that as it develops.
As usual i have been doing a lot of teaching and doing drum tracks for folks.
Thanks for visiting,

The Art of Cupping
by Susan Johnson, L.Ac.
The ancient art of cupping has been utilized by healers and lay people in many cultures. Cupping is a suction technique designed to pull toxin build-up and muscle spasm from the body's deeper tissue to the surface of the skin. The cells of the body use oxygen and give off carbon dioxide; when the energy is blocked, the cell waste or carbon dioxide gets blocked. This is called acid or toxin build-up. Physical pain implies a blockage in the flow of energy through a particular area. When toxins or cell waste stagnate in the muscles or joints, it can be very difficult for the body to get rid of this waste, causing further blockage and discomfort. Utilizing cupping techniques we are able, by vacuum or suction, to pull the blockage out of the deeper tissue and move it to the skin's surface. Once on the surface, it is much easier for the body to eliminate toxins through the superficial blood supply or capillary system. In only ten minutes of cupping, not only can we pull toxin build-up out of specific areas, but we can also pull fresh new blood into those areas, which vitalizes and restores proper blood flow.
Cupping is diagnostic as well as therapeutic, and can tell us three basic things. First, cupping tells us exactly where the problem is, as we usually cup an area slightly larger than the painful region, in order to ensure that the pain is completely covered. Some skin under the cups will color, and some won't, although the same amount of suction has been used with all cups. Even on the skin under a single cup, one part may color while the rest may not. These colored areas help us identify the sources of pain and discomfort. Second, cupping tells us the kind of problem with which we are dealing, as problems relating to toxin build-up or muscle spasm will cause the skin under the cup to color, whereas issues dealing with nerve or bone will not color at all. Third, cupping shows us the severity of the problem. Light or moderate blockage will cause the skin under a cup to color pink or red, and it will take a day or two for this color to fade. Severe stagnation can cause the skin to color a deep scarlet, purple, or even black; it may take seven to ten days for the dark color to disperse. All of this information is helpful not only in treating the patient, but in making an accurate diagnosis.
The cupping sensation can be a bit painful for the first sixty seconds, the time during which most of the toxins are removed. It is helpful for the patient to try to relax into the process of being cupped, and to acknowledge and tolerate the pain. Practitioners should ensure that the patient does not hyperventilate by closely watching the patient's breathing, and encouraging them to inhale and exhale only through the nose, and not through the mouth. This will slow the breathing and prevent the patient from becoming dizzy or lightheaded. The discomfort usually eases after sixty seconds. Patients who are lying down while receiving cups may even doze a bit.
Cups rarely need to be applied for more than ten minutes. If no color appears after a few minutes, cups can be removed and placed elsewhere on the body. Do not leave the room while cupping your patient. Be sure to watch your patient closely; if any blisters begin to appear, the cups should be removed immediately, as blisters indicate that a cup has been left on too long. For many patients, the practitioner's gentle downward stroking of the arms or back can help them to relax and feel the practitioner's presence during the treatment. Be as sensitive as you are able with your patients, and understand that some patients will need you to work especially slowly and gently while cupping them.
Cupping is an extraordinary technique, and its effects are immediate. The healing process may be shortened by weeks or even months by using cupping, a method that manually removes the energy blockage in ways that acupuncture needles cannot.

BOWIE -- Someone asked Matt Riley when he expected a promotion to the Orioles. He responded with a high, hard fastball.
"I'd like to be up in the next couple of months," he said, "if things keep going well. If not, September."
It's a temptation, for sure. The Orioles are desperate for a left-handed starter, and Riley is their best pitching prospect since Mike Mussina.

We believe that Black people will not be free until we are able to determine our destiny.
We believe that the federal government is responsible and obligated to give every man employment or a guaranteed income. We believe that if the White American businessmen will not give full employment, then the means of production should be taken from the businessmen and placed in the community so that the people of the community can organize and employ all of its people and give a high standard of living.
We believe that this racist government has robbed us, and now we are demanding the overdue debt of forty acres and two mules. Forty acres and two mules were promised 100 years ago as restitution for slave labor and mass murder of Black people. We will accept the payment in currency which will be distributed to our many communities. The Germans are now aiding the Jews in Israel for the genocide of the Jewish people. The Germans murdered six million Jews. The American racist has taken part in the slaughter of over fifty million Black people; therefore, we feel that this is a modest demand that we make.
We believe that if the White Landlords will not give decent housing to our Black community, then the housing and the land should be made into cooperatives so that our community, with government aid, can build and make decent housing for its people.
We believe in an educational system that will give to our people a knowledge of self. If a man does not have knowledge of himself and his position in society and the world, then he has little chance to relate to anything else.
We believe that Black people should not be forced to fight in the military service to defend a racist government that does not protect us. We will not fight and kill other people of color in the world who, like Black people, are being victimized by the White racist government of America. We will protect ourselves from the force and violence of the racist police and the racist military, by whatever means necessary.
We believe we can end police brutality in our Black community by organizing Black self-defense groups that are dedicated to defending our Black community from racist police oppression and brutality. The Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States gives a right to bear arms. We therefore believe that all Black people should arm themselves for self- defense.
We believe that all Black people should be released from the many jails and prisons because they have not received a fair and impartial trial.
Original six members of the Black Panther Party (November, 1966) Top left to right: Elbert "Big Man" Howard; Huey P. Newton (Defense Minister), Sherman Forte, Bobby Seale (Chairman). Bottom: Reggie Forte and Little Bobby Hutton (Treasurer).

We believe that the courts should follow the United States Constitution so that Black people will receive fair trials. The Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution gives a man a right to be tried by his peer group. A peer is a person from a similar economic, social, religious, geographical, environmental, historical and racial background. To do this the court will be forced to select a jury from the Black community from which the Black defendant came. We have been, and are being, tried by all-White juries that have no understanding of the "average reasoning man" of the Black community.

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature's God entitle them, a decent respect of the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.

Hey Lynsey – Any tips or suggestions for a filing system for party plan? I'm setting up a new office after moving and want to start fresh. I have new binders and a new filing cabinet. Where to start…. ??? – Cindy Denning, Close To My Heart Consultant
Hey Cindy! Great question! And congrats on the new office! 🙂
There are a few different systems I have in my office to keep everything organized and together where I can get to anything at a moments notice. One of the most important systems though is my Hostess/Party files. Your Hostess Folders are worth their weight in gold, and used properly can easily be the most important tool for business that you have.
Here is a video on how to organize your Hostess / Party Folders –
A few more tips:
First – the most important part – The Hostess Worksheets. I have created two Hostess Worksheets for you to use in your Hostess Folders. You can download them here – HostessWorksheetI and HostessWorksheetII
Each Party gets a Hostess Folder as soon as it is booked.
Fill in the top of the first Hostess Worksheet I as soon as you get the party booked. The Hostess Worksheet I should be stapled to the inside left of a file folder, the Hostess Worksheet II stapled to the inside right of the file folder.
Everything for this party will be kept in this folder.
The Hostess Worksheet I has an outline for you to use when making your Hostess Coaching phone calls.
File your Hostess/Party Folders by chronological order according to the date the party was held. That way if someone calls and says "I was at a party about a month ago but I do not remember my Hostess's name," you still can easily put your hands on the folder that will include her order.
Keeping your Hostess / Party Folders neat and organized is a critical part to organizing your business!
With a little preparation, you can make keeping these tools organized a breeze!

Don't forget to FALL BACK one hour!!
I personally don't think this new daylight savings time schedule is working. My lights are still on the same amount of time. I've read a couple reports that show statistics since the new schedule began. There's really no savings going on.
The good news is that we get our extra hours of sleep. YAY!!
So, don't forget to set your clocks back and enjoy your extra hour in bed!!

A friend recently sent me a link to this amazing website called We Make Carpets.
Designed by Marcia Nolte, Stijn van der Vleuten and Bob Waardenburg, a selection of carpets
have been created using everyday objects. The concept of the idea itself isnt hard but because the artists design such intricate carpets with such random objects its makes the whole idea so much more impressive. I would love to be able to create such amazing art, looking at work like this is so inspiring.

Since I began carving little birds, nearly three years ago, I haven't carved anything but birds. I'd carve an occasional narwhal (five or six) but mostly birds.
Last weekend I stumbled across a diagram and instructions to make a automated alligator pull toy. It was reprinted from a c. 1920s how-to book for boys. (This is my favorite book genre. I've got a dozen, or so, ranging from the 1900s to the 1960s. I'm not sure why it made an impression on me.
Over the next few days my notebooks and journals were filled with alligator drawings. Early last week I sat at my bench and carved an alligator. I wasn't sure how I felt about it . I put it aside and had no plans to revisit the project anytime soon.
I was home, sick, on Friday and alligator thoughts began creeping into my head again. Saturday morning I was back at my bench and moving forward. The result are pictured here.
All of my work is inspired by a personal experience. I was well into carving. In fact I was setting the eyes when I remembered a youthful fascination with an particular alligator. Boyhood chum, Charlie Ormiston, has a real stuffed baby alligator on his bedroom dresser. I seem to remember that kids regularly brought these back from Florida. It had black glass eyes and a wire running through its tail. It was stitched from chin to tail with big brown stitches. I could see Charlie's stuffed 'gator, clear as a bell, as worked on this guy.

Have you ever stared at a map and contemplated the border lines between different countries? How did they get there? What history, geography, and politics helped shape those borders and make them look the way they do? Here are 23 photos from borders around the world that show the reality behind those lines on the map.
1. A NASA satellite image shows the border between Haiti, which is quite barren, and the much greener Dominican Republic.

Hello hello! I hope you had a nice holiday weekend! We took it easy around here and knocked out a few more things on the to-do list of tasks to accomplish before Jamie comes home soon.
The very, very best thing that happened this weekend is that I became a first-time AUNT! My beautiful sister Jennifer and brother-in-law Josh welcomed Carly Grace on Friday afternoon down in Destin, Florida, and she is precious and perfect. I cannot wait to meet her later this summer, though I wish I could be there now. Congratulations, you two!
Today I'm back with another installment of "Real Parenting Moments". Here's a few stories from the last few weeks that stand out.
- Jamie left to go back overseas when Sadie was eight days old, and the first night that I was solo was a doozy in the most hilarious way. I put Sadie down to sleep around 9 p.m. and at midnight she woke up to eat. I fed her and finally put her back to sleep around 12:45 a.m., and within two minutes of laying her down I heard her let out a huge #2. I hated to wake this sleeping baby but knew I needed to change her diaper. I tried to do it as quickly and quietly as possible, but in the middle of changing her she started tinkling. Right when she finished tinkling she started pooping everywhere, and she wouldn't stop! By the third or fourth "squirt" I just burst out laughing all by myself. Here I was standing in the pitch black trying to do things quietly, but now we were both a total mess. I hit on a lamp, got both of us cleaned up as well as her changing pad, and laid her on my bed to put on new jammies. As I was snapping her last couple snaps she spit up everywhere… ALL over her AND my bed. The whole thing was such a train wreck that it was funny. She ended up staying awake until 5 a.m. after this whole escapade.
- A few weeks ago I was brushing Hadley's teeth and combing her hair before bed when she started singing. She sings all the time, but I knew this wasn't one of her usual songs. I listened for a minute and thought I recognized it as Jesus Loves Me. I started singing it with her, and she filled in the words every time I stopped. This isn't one of the regular songs we sing, and for some reason it totally took my breath away that she knew the whole song; She'd learned it at school. As we continued singing, my eyes completely filled up with unexpected tears. I can't explain it, but we shared the sweetest moment standing in the bathroom together singing that song.
- Twice in the last month I tried to surprise people with a birthday cake – my sister and one of my best friends Mary Elizabeth, and both times Hadley has completely spoiled the surprise. Both times I stood in the kitchen lighting the candles in preparation to round the corner singing (of course with other people who knew what was going on), but both times Hadley has run into the kitchen shouting "Cake! Cake!" as I'm lighting the candles.
- In the last week Hadley has decided that being naked is hilarious. Whenever I'm dressing her she always giggles and shouts that she's naked (like I didn't know), and I can't help but laugh. A few days ago she burst into my bathroom as I was walking out of the shower, and she slapped my rear and yelled "Naked butt!" She is a riot! Can't make this stuff up. PS: She pronounces it "neck-ed" like a true southerner I want her to be. 😉
- Every time Sadie cries, this is the conversation I have with Hadley:
- Hadley: "Sadie crying."
- Me: "Why?"
- Hadley: "Sad."
- Me: "Why is she sad?"
- Hadley: "Cause crying."
- Me: "But why is she crying?"
- Hadley: "Sad."
- Repeat 10x.
- When I came down with Mastitis last week I had no idea how I would handle Sadie's typical "witching hours" (5ish-8ish) when she's fussy or nursing on and off the entire time. I had no energy and felt like death. Magically Sadie knew that her mama wasn't feeling well and played and cooed the entire night. She didn't fuss one time from 5-10 p.m. I was so thankful!
- Since Sadie is officially six weeks old, I gave myself the green light to start jogging. I use the Nike+ app on my phone to track my mileage (I have for years), so the last couple days I've just been running a half mile out and turning around. Starting off slow and it feels wonderful. Just a few minutes to myself to break a sweat and listen to worship music have started off my day on the best possible foot.

1. Football Is A Religion
It doesn't matter if the team is bad or good in a given year. Everyone knows more or less everything about the University of Oregon football team, more than half of the people know everything about the PAC-12, and either way everyone is crazy about this sport. The games are loud, the passion is insane, and the student athletes are heralded like heroes. It's a little over the top, but go to a game and you'll see why.
2. Rec Is Life
The Rec Center, which is essentially the gym, went through quite the renovation a few years ago, and with epic results. A solid majority of students have at least one activity in here every week, with some people devoting a few hours every day to this place. From having something like twelve basketball courts to boasting an Olympic sized swimming pool, that's how it is at an athletic school. Everyone loves athletics and everyone is at least a little bit athletic.
3. We Have All Four Seasons… In One Day!
The title more or less says it all. Here in Eugene, OR, it isn't uncommon to start the day extremely rainy, followed by nice hot sun, followed by crazy wind or more rain or even some hail or snow when it's Winter. That said, when there is consistency, it's in the miserable Winters or beautiful yet dry summers. Anyone who goes here knows to check the whole forecast for the day, not just the current one.
4. Sizzle Pie Is Dank
There are a lot of phenomenal pizza places here. Pegasus, which boasts a supermassive pizza. Falling Sky, which is in the center of campus. Etc. But Sizzle Pie seems to be a student favorite, and for good reason. By the slice, this phenomenal pizza is consistently recommended by students at the UO. Plus, it happens to be downtown, near a bunch of other really cool stuff. The beer isn't bad either.
5. No Uber
Somehow, uber ended up getting banned in Eugene. The result is that getting places is just a tad more difficult, requiring having a designated driver, a car yourself, or just sucking it up and planning to walk or take the bus. At the very least, you'll get some good exercise whenever you go party hopping.
6. Cheap Drinks
On the other hand, bar drinks are cheap if you know where to go and when. Taylor's has $2 well drinks from 9-12 on Thursdays and Rennie's has half off well drinks and beer from 8 onward on Fridays. Pretty sweet deal if you're looking to just pregame a little bit or if you don't want to spend too much on your alcohol.
7. Online Classes Are Awesome
The University of Oregon boasts a solid number of fantastic online classes. Some people can finish entire prerequisites for their major exclusively online. Fast, easy, and efficient, the online classes offered by the University of Oregon show a willingness to be modern about how classrooms are handled.
8. Blackboard Is Better
Once upon a time we had this really great online system for classes called blackboard. Fastforward a little, and for the last couple of years we've been using a different site called Canvas. Canvas is a total trainwreck and half of the teachers can't figure it out at all. Oh, Blackboard… We took you for granted.
9. Duck Store Makes You Feel Poor
The prices in the duck store are insane. Just a tank top can be as high as $28. Provided it has the O on it or the Nike logo, bets are that the stuff you're buying is pricey. That said, they actually give out free stuff at a lot of the football games, which is yet another reason to go to them! Hang around at all the public events long enough, and soon, without paying a cent, you'll have a whole wardrobe of school-spirit-related stuff.
10. Shasta Lake Is Hype
Anyone who goes to the U of O is well aware that when it comes to a weekend of fun, Shasta is an unbeatable trip. Dazzling blue water, great hiking and other outdoor activities, and plenty to talk about after you've gotten back. Bring a few cases of beer and maybe some hard liquor and you've got yourself a wonderful short term vacation. That said, be sure to clean up after yourself when you leave!

At its season-ending team banquet Friday night, Georgia Tech honored seniors and gave awards to five Yellow Jackets for their contributions to the season.
Offensive lineman Gary Brown was named offensive scout-team player of the year and defensive lineman Jabari Hunt-Days was named defensive scout-team player of the year. B-back Matt Connors was named special-teams player of the year.
Guard Trey Braun and safety Isaiah Johnson received the offensive and defensive effort awards.
Players and coaches have touted Brown and Hunt-Days' work on their scout teams in preparing Tech's offense and defense for upcoming opponents. Earlier in the season, guard Shaquille Mason said that Hunt-Days, who is not playing due to academic ineligibility, was the best player he had faced this season.
"I know this," linebacker coach Andy McCollum said in November of Brown. "When you're on defense and you're lined up against him, you'd better get ready, because he's coming to get somebody."
Connors blocked a punt against Tulane and was twice named special-teams player of the week, after that game and also after the Pittsburgh game.
Braun and Johnson have often received praise for the leadership and effort they have provided. Johnson made one of the plays of the season, giving up his body in the Georgia game to force Georgia running back Nick Chubb to fumble on the goal line to save a touchdown.
Tech's seniors received plaques and also trophies, presented by Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, for the win over Georgia. The hospital presents the annual Governor's Cup trophy to the winner of the Tech-Georgia game.

Homemade metal-scraps battery charges at rocket speed
Image credit: Vanderbilt University
A battery that charges at a similar rate to ultra-fast charging supercapacitors and offers energy storage capacity equivalent to that of lead-acid batteries has been created from junkyard metal scraps and laundry detergent salt.
The device, designed by a team of mechanical engineers from Vanderbilt University in the USA, loses only 10 per cent of its capacity after 5000 consecutive charging cycles, equivalent to 13 years of daily usage. Unlike lithium-ion batteries, the junkyard battery doesn't pose any risk of explosion or ignition as it only contains non-flammable water electrolytes based on potassium hydroxide, which is commonly used in laundry detergents.
"Imagine that the tons of metal waste discarded every year could be used to provide energy storage for the renewable energy grid of the future, instead of becoming a burden for waste processing plants and the environment," said Cary Pint, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at Vanderbilt University.
The key to the battery's performance is in the treatment of the steel and brass scraps. Using a technique that could be replicated by anyone at home, the researchers anodised the scraps' surface. This resulted in nanometre-scale metal oxide structures that can store and release energy when reacting with a water-based liquid electrolyte.
The researchers say they aren't aiming to commerecialise their invention. Instead, they would like to make the know how publically available to enable people to build their own batteries for domestic use.
"We're seeing the start of a movement in contemporary society leading to a 'maker culture' where large-scale product development and manufacturing is being decentralised and scaled down to individuals or communities," Pint said.
"So far, batteries have remained outside of this culture, but I believe we will see the day when residents will disconnect from the grid and produce their own batteries. That's the scale where battery technology began, and I think we will return there."
The researchers named the world's oldest known battery – the so called Baghdad Battery from the first century BC – as their inspiration. Although some doubt whether it really was a battery, this device consisted of a ceramic terracotta pot, a copper sheet and an iron rod found alongside traces of electrolyte.
Instead of a terracotta pot, the Vanderbilt team used a regular glass jar.
"We're forging new ground with this project, where a positive outcome is not commercialisation, but instead a clear set of instructions that can be addressed to the general public," said Pint. "It's a completely new way of thinking about battery research, and it could bypass the barriers holding back innovation in grid-scale energy storage."
The researchers described the invention in an article in the journal ACS Energy Letters. The team is currently working on a full-scale prototype battery suitable for use in energy-efficient smart homes.

'Sailing Over The 7th String' from Tim Edey - perfect symbiosis between artist and instruments(September 19, 2013)
Listening to Tim Edey playing always has the same effect – his music takes me from wherever I happen to be to somewhere that's peaceful and free from whatever current crisis happens to prevail. The expertise on the myriad of instruments to which he can turn his hand is undoubted. More importantly, there's the 'oneness' Tim has with whatever instrument he picks up and whatever tunes he decides to play. For me it's listening to a perfect symbiosis between artist and instruments, and that's something you don't hear every day.
On his latest album, 'Sailing Over The 7th String', Tim has enlisted the help of some highly talented musicians: renowned composer Steve Cooney on guitar, scintillating percussionist Lucy Randall and Scottish fiddle icon Patsy Reid. Together they round out a delicious selection of tunes that include fine traditional tunes re-arranged by Tim plus compositions from Steve Cooney, Elmer Briand and Stephen Foster (composer of 'Old Folks at Home'). The mix runs the gamut from polkas to gypsy jazz, hornpipes to sensitive airs – a perfectly planned and executed collection.
Without running through a track list, my favourites include the iridescently percussive 'Clooney's Polcas', the innovative captivation of 'Journey to Mull', an impressively tantalising rendition of Elmer Briand's 'Beautiful Lake Ainslie', and 'My Prayer' a guitar duet between Tim and Steve. If, like me, you find Tim Edey's playing irresistible then 'Sailing Over The 7th String' must join your collection.

A short and sweet and mildly thought provoking piece over at Terra Nova asks the question: "Why not qualify the taking away of virtual objects as theft?" The author speaks in reference to Dutch law specifically, but a few cases have cropped up in recent months (Shanda getting sued after forgetting to return some virtual items; the case that this post was based on, where virtual theft in Habbo Hotel led to a real life arrest) that raise the question of what do you do with virtual items when they're stolen? Slap a pair of real life cuffs on the thief's wrists? Ignore it, since the items never left the virtual space they inhabited?
Is it relevant for the qualification as theft whether the stolen fortune stays officially in game? Well, not to me. I see no reason for distinguishing between virtual and physical theft. The original owners of the stolen Habbo furniture obtained the items after they bought credits with real money, and do attach value to those items. As long as the original owner looses something of value (such as virtual items) due to the act of another individual who gains possession over the item, it should in my opinion be qualified as theft, no matter whether the locus delicti is in the physical or the virtual world.
I love this virtual law stuff, so many areas are so vague - I do wonder what sort of changes are going to be going on the books in the next decade or so.
Why not qualify the taking away of virtual objects as theft? [Terra Nova]

The doctor and staff here are wonderful. I have improved so much since my first visit. I am very happy with my treatment here. I was a mess when I started, could barely put shoes on without assistance. I now have zero pain when doing every day activities. I would recommend any and everyone to this wonderful office.
Ashley G. 3/14/2018
Everyone in the office is extremely nice and makes me feel comfortable about coming in for my treatment. I have had migraines for a major part of my life and they were paralyzing. I have gone to many doctors and tried many different medications, but nothing helped. My step-dad recommended me to come to the chiropractor and I have NOT had any bad migraines since I started treatment.
John B. 02/09/2018
Dr. Nick always puts my back and neck into alignment. It really helps. Tina is great for massages! Thanks and God Bless!
Heather N. 02/05/2018
I had a pinched nerve in my neck that was causing severe pain from my neck down to my arm. After the first adjustment I felt better and after about 3 adjustments the pain was gone. X-rays also revealed arthritis and scoliosis in my neck. Exercises specific for my condition were prescribed along with traction and massage. Overall I fell much better and will continue with chiropractic care here.
Rebecca P. 01/30/2018
I was in a car accident and I came to see Dr. Cambouris. I was a mess and he did adjustments that greatly reduced the pain I was experiencing. I would highly recommend him to anyone that has any sort of back pain.
Derrick S. 01/18/2018
Thank you for the great help!!
Lori B. 01/09/2018
I didn't think my neck pain was bad enough to see a doctor or do anything about. I dealt with it for a few months before my husband suggested I see Dr. Nick. I'm so glad I listened to him and came in! Even mild pain is more pain than we should live with. Why just suffer through something when you can heal and be pain free? After treatment and physical therapy, that's where I am now - pain free! And very happy!
Jamie S. 01/03/2018
I have suffered neck and back pain for about 8 years. Dr Nick has helped me relieve most of my pain and I look forward to treatment. His planning of therapy and treatment, along with the scheduling is very key to improvement. The staff is very helpful and kind with whatever you need.
David S. 12/29/2017
Excellent care, friendly staff and almost no waiting! After 3 weeks my pain is almost totally gone. Well done!
Georgiana R. 12/27/2017
I love Dr. Cambouris - I can move without pain!
Justin M. 12/21/2017
Everyone at CSC has been extremely helpful and friendly. All have been incredible in my health improvement. Excellent!
Jessica Peng 12/20/2017
I cam in with pain in my right shoulder area that lasted 2 weeks before I sought treatment. I was in a lot of pain. With chiropractic adjustments, e-stim and massage therapy, the pain is all gone. Now I am doing physical therapy to correct my poor posture. I look forward to seeing improvement.
Kathy S. 12/11/2017
Dr. Cambouris and his staff have been a pleasure to come and see. Everyone is outgoing, friendly and polite. Dr. Cambouris is very patient and listens to all of my concerns. He did different treatments to fit my needs. Highly recommended!
Lisa C. 11/30/2017
Fantastic patient care, office is well organized with a really good staff. Follow up is excellent. Dr. nick is the best chiropractor I have been to. He treats the whole body instead of just parts of it. I truly look forward to each visit.
Rich C. 11/30/2017
Came here with hopeful expectations and trying to avoid surgery on my hop. Progress is slow, but it is progress! I have muscle tissue issues in my right leg because of a motorcycle accident 40 years ago. The massage therapy is helping greatly!
Sandra T. 11/30/2017
First time visiting a chiropractor so I was a bit nervous. Everyone put me at ease and were very welcoming. I felt welcome right from the start. Treatment has helped but I am still experiencing some pain.
Megan J. 11/17/2017
Dr. Nick has been instrumental in helping to control and alleviate my lower back pain both intrapartum and postpartum. He is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommended to all!
Kelly T. 11/13/2017
1 year and 1 month later, I am fixed! Thank you for sticking it out with me. Best Chiropractor ever. Best Massage Therapists ever. Best staff ever. Keep up the great work! See you soon!
Zack W. 11/7/2017
If you have problems and pain, take care of it. It is very worth it. When my back pain started to go away it was such a relief. Wish I did not wait this long.
Kim R. 11/2/2017
I am pain free. I'm glad I came to understand more about my back. I would recommend this office to others.
Ryan S. 11/1/2017
Everyone is kind, courteous, and very helpful. The treatment was quick and resulted in a back with less pain and more mobility.
Nicole S. 10/26/2017
I have severe asthma. Whenever I get adjusted, the shortness of breath goes away and I can feel my lungs working immediately. Thank you for your help. I greatly appreciate it.
Lenore E. 10/23/2017
Years and years of suffering pain is exactly what my story is. Fifteen years ago, after a surgery, I started having back pain, hip joint, and SI joint which became my worst pain. I have had 3 MRIs, seen several doctors in orthopedic and neurology. I was sent to pain management for injections that didn't work. I was sent 3 times to physical therapy which was of little help. I finally wondered if chiropractic could help. Dr. Cambouris alleviated 75% of my pain in my very 1st session. Over the next month he continued to work on my problem areas. I am now so very close to being free of pain, it feels like a new lease on life and I couldn't be happier. He is my "miracle" doctor, and I will keep up the exercises given to me so I can reinforce all of his wonderful work. May the force be with you Dr Nick!
Ty D. 10/18/2017
Friendly and quick. Most efficient treating back pain! I feel much better!
Stacy T. 10/16/2017
Dr. Nick and staff have been life changing to me and my family. We not only use his chiropractic services but massage, acupuncture and cupping therapy. My daughter is a Division 1 athlete and has experienced relief and the ability to continue with an overuse injury. I have experienced relief and continued trying to pursue my health goals through cupping and acupuncture. Dr. Nick listens and helps. An amazing healer!
Silvia H. 10/16/2017
Dr. Nick is an amazing doctor, well educated with a great personality. If you are in any pain he will fix it for you. You may come in with a great pain and I guarantee you will leave feeling great!! Thank you for all the hard work. Staff is amazing!
Kent J. 10/6/2017
Very knowledgeable Doctor and staff. Honest opinions and expectations. Easy to talk to and everyone seems genuine when giving advice and recommendations.
Maria P. 10/5/2017
I came into Dr. Cambouris's office not being able to walk, I felt like a ninety year old! Within a few weeks I am doing so much more. I am a lot more active and pain and suffering is gone. A big Thank You!
Angel K. 10/2/2017
After developing carpal tunnel from working at my job as a baker I would have severe pain in my hands almost every day. Dr. Nick has helped immensely! Through therapy and adjustments I have become pain free! I would definitely recommend Dr. Nick to anyone who needs help managing their pain.
Amy P. 9/27/2017
I have chronic left shoulder pain, which I mentioned during an appointment with Dr. Nick. He suggested acupuncture and cupping to help ease the pain and heal my shoulder. The cupping procedure has been extremely effective and reduced my pain significantly. With the pain reduction I have been able to incorporate strength exercises Dr. Nick provided to help with overall long-term return of "range of motion". Cupping is an alternative to overly invasive procedures and/or the ingestion of medication. Dr. Nick and his staff have always been willing to listen and offer suggestions on how to reduce pain and discomfort but also long-term healing.
Jody T. 9/19/2017
Dr. Cambouris and his staff are wonderful. He truly cares and adjusts treatment as needed. He is always asking about progress and listening to your response so he can treat you properly. The entire staff treats you like an old friend. I would recommend them highly.
Szilvia H. 9/11/2017
My experience with Dr. Nick and staff is wonderful. Dr. Nick does everything for you. His knowledge is great, if you have any questions he gives you the true answer and makes sure he gives you the best treatment you need.
William B. 9/7/2017
I came to Dr. Cambouris with pain that I thought I couldn't tolerate. I was virtually pain free before the MRI scheduled by my orthopedic doctor was scheduled. I'm now completely pain free. I'm grateful more than words can say. Thank you Dr. Cambouris and staff!
Kent J. 8/28/2017
Doctor and staff are very knowledgeable and friendly, not to mention professional. Dr. Nick listens and addresses your concerns as they occur and/or change. I feel Dr. Nick is very honest when he tells you what he will be able to achieve through treatment. The bedside manner of Dr. Nick and his staff is always pleasant and personable. Dr. Nick impresses me as someone that is very knowledgeable in many areas. I feel that he genuinely wants you to get well.
Kelly T. 8/21/2017
Everyone at the Chiropractic Spine Center is caring and kind. Thank you all for being patient with me and my healing process, especially Dr. Nick!
Roni B. 8/21/2017
Dr. Cambouris is excellent and top notch. The customer service from the front desk is friendly and efficient.
Charles H. 8/14/2017
I would recommend this place to anyone who needs to feel pain free. Thanks for all you and the staff have done for my back pain.
Hanna M. 8/11/2017
Before I came in I had extreme pain in my back and neck which would cause me to miss out on normal activities that I loved. Dr. Nick has helped with the pain and has allowed me to live a normal 16 year old life!
Julie B. 8/10/2017
With all my other health problems I didn't think there was much help for my pain. Dr. was able to do different treatments to work with my body and did some good. It gave me hope to slowly get back to a little more normal. Dr. truly cared about helping me and I didn't feel alone with my pain. I was afraid I would have to be put on pain meds which I didn't want to be on. I feel a lot more hopeful than I did when I first came in.
Michelle W. 8/2/2017
I came in for neck and back pain and most of my digestive issues ended up getting better too from fixing the other things. Definitely was worth giving it a try because it has helped my headaches, mood, and energy. I fell a lot better since coming here. I feel more capable of strengthening my core and back to help my posture and help my neck not get so sore. Staff is always very friendly.
Tina S. 8/2/2017
I had arm pain for over a year. My primary physician took x-rays and said they were normal and dismissed my pain. Dr. Cambouris found the problem on my first visit and now my pain is gone. Thanks for not dismissing my pain!
Jeffrey P. 7/31/2017
I am very happy with all treatments and I am on the way to much better health. This has been a great experience and it is my first treatment with any chiropractic care and I am 65 years old. I am now a believer in this type of healthcare. Dr. Nick sure knows his craft and is very gentle when working with my body. I will now be a once a month patient!
Ken C. 7/26/2017
It has been, thus far, a very good experience. I look forward to the treatments because of their effectiveness.
Adam F. 7/21/2017
After getting hurt at work as a paramedic I thought this pain would never leave. After going to Dr. Cambouris, he and his staff will make you feel like family and will do their best to get you back to work as well as dealing with workers comp. I have never seen a doctor as quick and knowledgeable as Dr. Cambouris and his staff.
Lisa B. 7/19/2017
I sought chiropractic care for my severe migraines and continuous headaches, on the advice of several friends. After meeting Dr. Nick at the office, I decided to try it. I have not had another migraine since beginning treatment. My neck, back and head pain have improved. Though sometimes sore after physical therapy, I know that it is helping me to get better. I will definitely return for care as needed.
Lexi P. 7/19/2017
After going a month or two with constantly experiencing pain in my lower back, I decided to give it a try. Within the first day the pain was beginning to go away!
Janice R. 7/17/2017
I have been pleasantly pleased after the treatments this far. I didn't know what to expect but I was lucky to have two referrals to suggest Dr. Cambouris. I feel I have come a long way since I started coming here.
Cory T. 7/6/2017
Overall I have zero complaints about the services received. Pain levels have improved regularly. Staff and Dr. Nick are always pleasant to see. A day at the chiropractor means a day I am going to have less back pain!
Stacy S. 7/6/2017
Prior to treatment, I had constant lower back and hip pain. After just a few weeks of treatment, I now have little to no pain in wither. I was able to spend 7 days at Disney World without any pain waiting in the long lines! It was glorious and definitely made for a better vacation!
David O. 6/29/2017
Dr. Nick and his staff are awesome. They all are very caring and patient with you. They all go the extra mile to accommodate you in whatever your need is. Dr. Nick is great. He is willing to educate you in anyway, whatever your concern is I'm convinced he can help. I had pain in my lower back as well as my left buttocks and in some cases going all the way to my toes on my left side. In the twelve sessions that I have been coming to Dr. Nick, he has made a huge turn around for me. At one point I even had a sinus infection and he worked on my sinuses that day. It was something that I would never have expected, but he took the time and went the extra mile to help me not only with my back pain but my sinuses as well. A five star operation!
Christina E. 6/22/2017
I'm so glad I cam across your office, the treatment has been beyond what anyone else has been able to help me with in the past. I'm now getting back into my figure skating and marathon running thanks to less pain! Thank you!
Christopher K. 6/21/2017
I came in with sciatica that had been bothering me for two straight weeks and also some other moderate to severe back pain. By my second appointment I was free of my sciatica pain and virtually pain free.
Jackie B. 6/20/2017
Loved this experience. The Dr. and staff are top notch. Very nice and helpful. Dr. Nick had a lot of tips for me that were very helpful. The treatments did wonders for my problems. Just awesome. Thank you! I can't believe how much better I feel. I can turn my head again when backing up my car. Haven't been able to do that in years!
Megan J. 6/8/2017
Very pleased! I should have been seeing a chiropractor sooner! My lower back pain has been a problem for years but has worsened significantly since a bad car accident a year ago and becoming pregnant 5 months ago. Although I have not been able to get an x-ray to gain greater detail in my pain and problem due to my pregnancy, Dr. Cambouris has been able to reduce my overall back pain which has allowed me to sleep better and night and improved other aspects of my daily living. They do great work!
Cheryl D. 5/17/2017
I'm not a fan of doctors and came in as a last resort for leg pain that I've had for 1.5 years. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Dr. Nick is great. The acupuncture was not painful at all, although I am not a fan of cupping! The adjustments and ultrasound seem to be just the treatment I needed! I'm able to sleep on my side again with no shooting pain down my leg! I've been able to go back to lower body exercises with no pain. I will definitely recommend this practice to anyone in need of care!
Joanne V. 4/24/2017
When I first arrived to my consultation I was concerned. I have heard negative experiences from family and friends regarding other chiropractor they had seen, so I was nervous. After my consultation I knew Dr. Nick was not like "those chiropractors". Very holistic approach to my wellness. Dr. Nick got me up on my feet! What a blessing! Thank you Dr. Nick!
Patty P. 12/07/2016
I could barely walk when I first came in. Dr. said it would take about one week for me to start feeling better. Exactly one week and I returned to work. The staff is so friendly and Dr. Nick is such a pleasure. So kind and caring. A true gem!
Jordan H. 12/01/2016
After my back pain became so severe that I couldn't even hold my newborn daughter, my wife talked my in to coming to CSC. After all of the x-rays I found out that I have been walking around with a broken back. The treatment plan was laid out and the work started. At first I was stiff but I could feel the difference. Now three months or so later I can carry my daughter with no issues and I spend all day at work with little to no pain. Best thing my wife made me do!
Karrie M. 08/31/2016
I have been suffering from lower back pain for about ten years on and off. After seeing Dr. Nick, I was able to relieve my body of the tension and stress that I didn't even know I had. Now, when I do that daily activities that would trigger my back pain, like playing with my kids, lifting objects, etc. it doesn't happen. I also have a broader range of motion. Sometimes I anticipate the pain, but it doesn't occur. Dr. Nick has made me feel like a kid again.
Julia A. 07/12/2016
From the first time I walked in the office everyone has been very friendly and always smiling. I always feel better after the treatment. It is unbelievable that I can move my head without pain and my back feels so much better than it has in years! Thank you to everyone for the friendliness and helping me become free of pain.
Leah C. 07/06/2016
I came to see Dr. Nick because I had severe pain in my neck, shoulder and arm. I was in tears. My primary care doctor suggested I see a spine specialist. I called Dr. Nick's office and got an appointment within a few days. From the first appointment the pain decreased! After one month I am feeling so much better! Thank you Dr. Nick!
Amber E. 03/01/2016
Being a nurse entails being on your feet and running around for long hours day after day. My heel, leg, and back pain was making me miserable by the end of my shift. By getting adjustments, traction and ultrasound therapy I am able to have better alignment and support. I feel so much better after seeing Dr. Cambouris. Now I can get through my shifts back to back without pain!
Zoe K. 15/08/2016
I have always had neck and back pain and for years I have been going to multiple chiropractors and none of them were able to help me. For being young I felt that I shouldn't be in so much pain or having the problems that I was having. Since I've started going to Dr. Cambouris I have improved tremendously and my pain has decreased a great amount. I am very thankful for his help and his great staff.
Krystyn F. 05/17/2016
I have suffered from carpal tunnel for over seven years. Since I've come to see Dr. Nick, I have had no symptoms. I used to wake up in pain but Dr. Nick has been working with me and I can now sleep through the night! No more sleepless nights! Thank you Dr. Nick!
Brenda W. 2/19/2016
Kind, friendly, and efficient staff. Always a smile and kind words. Dr. Nick is gentle, thorough, funny, kind, and really knows what he is doing because I am doing very well. I am so glad that I called this office for the help I needed. Definitely will refer anyone I meet to this wonderful place. Thank you very much!
Sydney W. 12/15/15
I have had extreme pain and other medical conditions impacting my life. I was taking a lot of medication to try and control it, which was not working. The first time I saw Dr. Nick I felt more relief than I have in about ten years! I really cannot say enough good things about him. He has helped and is still helping me to gain control of my pain.
Donald E. 12/17/2015
My experience has been nothing but great. I was hardly able to walk when I came to Dr. Nick. After several treatments I am walking without pain. Surgery would have been my next step. Thank you!
Kari V. 10/12/2015
Dr. Nick is outstanding with his chiropractic care. He is very kind and compassionate. I appreciate all of the help he has provided me in treatment following my car accident.
Darlene S. 10/9/2015
I have been coming here for years and any time someone in my family has an injury we come in and actually heal up pretty quickly and feel better. Even my husband who hates doctors comes in! That really says something!
Robert T. 10/28/2015
This office is very helpful and professional. Furthermore, everyone seems to care about you on a personal level as well. The office is very welcoming and gives you peace of mind that you will be taken care of. You can tell when a doctors office is run well and the staff care about the patients and this one does.
Therese S. 12/07/2015
Dr. Cambouris was able to identify where I was experiencing pain and treat it accordingly. I was welcomed and treated with respect by everyone, every time I was here. Dr. Nick was attentive to my concerns and took his time when treating me. I appreciate that things were not rushed. I am very happy with the care I received and will continue working on the exercises I was shown to help build up my strength!
Thank you!
Erin M. 10/21/2015
I am a believer in the importance of chiropractic care! What I appreciated most about my care at the Chiropractic Spine Center was how holistic it was, it went beyond adjustments. It helped me to understand how my spine and muscles work together and how necessary the care of both led to better, more comfortable health.
Ken B. 12/2/2015
Top Notch Care!
When I walked into the office I had about 6 different pains. Almost all are gone now. After each visit in the office I could feel myself getting a little bit better. I am very pleased with how I feel!
Scott M. 10/30/2015
This was the best experience I have had to help with my pain. The staff is very nice and very helpful. I will be coming back and I highly recommend Dr. Nick to anyone in pain!
Sue C. 04/13/2015
When I first came to CSC I could barely walk or stand. I am working towards recovery. Dr. Nick and staff make my life liveable. They help me every day and treat me like family. I am on my way to a healthier lifestyle. Dr. Nick has even helped me find a doctor to assist with my thyroid disease. What else can I say, CSC has saved my life!

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday arrested Rup Chand Baid, 58, promoter of logistics firm Siddhi Vinayak Logistic Ltd (SVLL) for his role in aiding laundering of tainted money in the alleged Rs 846.29-crore Bank of Maharashtra loan fraud case.
Baid, according to ED, was arrested in Mumbai under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. Surat-based SVLL, had in 2012, launched a scheme called 'Chalak se Malak' (from drivers to owners) as a part of its corporate social responsibility program. Under this scheme, the firm took loans from the Bank of Maharashtra to fund the purchase of used as well as new trucks by drivers.
Subsequently, SVLL defaulted on the loan repayment to the bank. "After disbursement of the loan to these companies, the loan money was circulated through chain of group associate companies through a series of unsecured loan and fraudulent transactions. Rup Chand Baid is the mastermind behind the entire criminal act of money laundering by embezzlement of bank loans which was obtained using forged documents," said an ED statement.
According to ED, Baid has shown his wife, sons, daughter-in-laws and some employees as directors in several companies through which money was layered. In 2015, a forensic audit by the bank allegedly found that SVLL had misused the loan funds. The forensic report alleged that out of the total loan disbursed to the firm, at least Rs 629.84 crore was misutilised. Apart from this, the audit allegedly found that there was no money trail for at least Rs 339.29 crore as SVLL was not able to produce adequate data to the forensic auditors.
Following the forensic audit, the bank declared SVLL a wilful defaulter and in September 2015, the CBI registered a case against the firm.
