At Senior Helpers, we place the utmost importance on ensuring our caregivers receive the latest training and are fully credentialed.
Our caregivers are thoroughly screened before they can become employees of Senior Helpers and each has the opportunity to participate in the Senior Helpers University program to attain additional education.
Senior Helpers complies with all national and licensing requirements so you can be assured that our caregiver is properly credentialed to perform the level of care that your senior loved one needs.
This ongoing training program enables our caregivers to provide superior home care while enhancing their job performance and ultimately create an exceptional customer experience for our clients.
All of our caregivers have the opportunity to participate in our continual learning program and receive credits towards the Senior Helpers Certification. Those in the program are required to complete a minimum of 8 training modules per year on a variety of topics:
Senior Gems®
Our professional, trained caregivers take a positive perspective to Alzheimer's and dementia care - our unique Senior Gems® Approach. This method focuses on what they can do, not what they cannot do.
We also work closely with dementia expert and registered occupational therapist, Teepa Snow (MS, OTR/L, FAOTA). Her Senior Gems® classification system (based on Cognitive Disability Theory) allows us to understand which stage of dementia the person is experiencing so we can put together the best plan and select the best caregiver for that individual.
With over 30 years of professional experience and more years providing care for several family members with dementia, Teepa brings a strong clinical base and a unique perspective on how our brains control our bodies and behaviors. Caregivers who are trained using her approach and skills can help change resistance and refusals into participation and successful interactions.

Corona del Mar High senior Jake Wyatt has committed to play water polo at Brown University, he announced in an email Wednesday.
Wyatt was a third team All-CIF Southern Section Division 1 performer for CdM in 2012. He also earned Newport-Mesa Dream Team laurels. The team's lone lefty led the Sea Kings in assists (56), ranked second in steals (37) and third in goals (38). He helped CdM win league and advance to the Division 1 semifinals.
Wyatt, a two-time USA Water Polo Academic All-American who has a 4.3 grade-point average at CdM, will play for Coach Felix Mercado at Brown. Brown finished 2012 ranked No. 16 in Division 1 by the Collegiate Water Polo Assn., one of two Ivy League schools in the top 20 (Princeton was No. 15).
"The polo will be highly competitive and I could feel during my recruiting trip to Brown, the school and team would be a great fit," Wyatt said in the email.
Wyatt thanked CdM Coach Barry O'Dea and other coaches like Ryan Bailey, Genai Kerr, Peter Asic and Milos Skaljac. He also thank longtime Harbor View swimming coach and CdM youth coach Ted Bandaruk.
"Coach Ted has likely had the greatest influence on my water polo experience," Wyatt said in the email. "He taught me the importance of working hard, playing as part of a team, and enjoying the game. Coach Ted is the one that introduced me to this sport. I doubt I would have found it without him."

Ex-Tar Kinney lauded
Peter Kinney, a Newport Harbor High graduate and a senior offensive lineman at the University of Redlands, was selected to play in the 17th annual All-American Bowl football game that took place Dec. 22.
Kinney anchored the line for a Redlands team that gave up just eight sacks and put up an average of 40 points a game this year. The Bulldogs rushing attack flourished, averaging 244.6 rushing yards a game and running for 24 touchdowns on the year.
Kinney, who earned All-American honors after serving as team captain in 2012, competed in the All-American Bowl alongside some of the best NCAA Division II and III talent.
The Bulldogs finished the season 6-3, 6-1 in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference after winning its final five games.
— From staff reports
Munce recognized
Megan Munce, a Newport Harbor High product who recently completed a women's volleyball career at TCU, was named Academic All-Big 12 Conference as a senior.
Munce, a 5-foot-8 setter who played 130 matches for the Horned Frogs, finished as the program's all-time leader in aces (177). She ranks third in school annals in assists (3,376) and is 10th in digs (987).
Munce was Mountain West Conference Setter of the Year in 2009, when she helped the squad coached by former Corona del Mar High standout Prentice Lewis reach its first NCAA Tournament.
Also in 2009, Munce was named All-West Region by the American Volleyball Coaches' Assn. and received honorable mention in All-American voting.
TCU was 15-14 in 2012, 4-12 in the Big 12.

Jade Rabbit Lunar Rover Sputters Back to Life
Feb 13, 2014 11:58 AM PT
Despite having been declared dead, China's moon rover is showing signs of life. After two weeks of gloomy silence, the Jade Rabbit appears to be up and running again.
The country's first lunar rover had lost communication with mission control following technical malfunctions, according to state media, but the rover reportedly is now "fully awake" and receiving signals as normal.
The news of Jade Rabbit's revival follows an earlier Chinese state media report that it could not be restored to full functionality. The sudden re-emergence of its communications systems gives supporters hope that the rover can continue the planned three-month mission of scouring the lunar surface for potential resources.
Cold Night
The Jade Rabbit went into hibernation mode following some malfunctions, and China's mission control team worried it would fail to survive the frigid moon night, which lasts 14 Earth days. However, "Yutu," as the rover is known in Mandarin, has awakened, Pei Zhaoyu, spokesperson for the lunar program, told Xinhua.
While the rover has an abnormality with its mechanical controls, there is a chance Jade Rabbit can be rescued while it is responding to communications, Pei explained. The technical team is investigating the problem and working on a repair plan.
China launched the rover in early December and it landed on the moon several days later.
'Is Anyone Out There?'
As with NASA rovers, Jade Rabbit was anthropomorphized after being given its own voice on the Chinese social network Sina Weibo, where it has more than 300,000 followers.
"Goodnight humanity," Jade Rabbit said two weeks ago, when hope for its survival appeared dim.
"Is anyone out there?" Jade Rabbit asked Thursday morning, triggering celebrations among the rover's followers.
"I think that most of the excitement about this mission stems from the fact that there hasn't been a soft lunar landing since 1976 (by the Soviet Union)," said Mario Livio, Ph.D., senior astrophysicist at the Space Telescope Science Institute.
"Undoubtedly, this is an impressive technological achievement, given that China is only the third nation (following the United States and the Soviet Union) to accomplish such a landing," he told TechNewsWorld.
"It's an interesting mission, and it's [China's] first moon mission, so there's been a lot of press about it," said Paul Spudis, Ph.D., senior staff scientist at the Lunar and Planetary Institute.
"I think people have kind of latched onto it emotionally. They've mythologized it and soft of given it an animate form," he told TechNewsWorld. "Scientifically, a lot of lunar scientists are interested in it because it's going to a new place on the moon we haven't been to before."
By "talking" to fans through Sina Weibo, Jade Rabbit is following in the footsteps of NASA's Curiosity rover, which is sending alerts, news, and photographs from the surface of Mars, albeit with the aid of human helpers back on Earth.
Mission Drama
"The awakening of the rover from what appeared to be a fatal malfunction added to the sense of drama of this mission," STSI's Livio said.
"It reminded me of the first servicing mission of the Hubble Space Telescope, in which corrective optics repaired the original flaw in Hubble's mirror," he recalled.
"There is no question that the success of landing Yutu will play an important role in the Chinese space program," Livio added.
"If I'm not mistaken, there was some concern that the landing (which raises plumes of dust) may skew some NASA measurements of the dust environment on the Moon," he noted.
"For the Chinese space program, I think it's very significant," LPI's Spudis remarked.
"Landing on the moon is a very difficult thing to do. In principle, it's easy to figure out how to do it. You approach at a certain speed and you burn the rockets for a certain length of time, and you very carefully sit down on the surface -- but to pull off a soft landing is quite a feat. What they've shown by this mission is a fairly high degree of sophistication, of spacefaring capabilities. For them, I think it was a major step forward."

Home of Real French Oak Hardwood Flooring
Authentic French Oak Hardwood Flooring
Heppner Hardwoods treats each floor with the respect and care of the original French artisans that installed the beautiful floors in the Palace of Versailles. Today our French Oak floors are made from either new French Oak or when available from Antique French Oak reclaimed from beams, churches or sometimes wine staves (barrels) can be utilized in the fabricating of parquet flooring. As you consider this significant investment our knowledgeable staff is available to guide you and your team through your options and consideration. We will customize your engineered or solid floor into the pattern that suits your environment and life style.
The natural beauty of the 'cathedral' grain found only in French Oak, lends itself to wide plank application. First, the slow growing 80 - 200 year old tree is cut into boules. This process is the cutting of whole logs 'through and through' so that the boards sliced are the full width of the tree. The wide width boards will have an array of grain, from the flat sawn cathedral grain in the center of the boards which is accompanied by quartering on the edges along with occasional flecks of the medullary rays. We recommend an engineered application.
Parquet floors are hand assembled floor patterns that have been used throughout history in Castles and Palaces throughout the world. These floors are exquisite labors of love. The pattern is designed to fit with the style of the rooms into which they are being installed. Each pattern is "framed" and glued to an underlayment which is repeated until there are enough "frames" to cover your surface. The out side edge of the frame has a T & G pattern for ease in installation. You may choose new French Oak, Antique or Aged to look old. Some patterns are even lovelier when you add other species for contrast, such as flat and/or quartersawn Walnut or an ebonized Jatoba feature strip. Your choices of pattern include the classics such as Bordeaux, Brittany, Versailles or Chantilly. Don't have a castle; Herringbone pattern can be scaled to the correct proportion of your project.
In-lays are another option for a spectacular focal point. Our in-house artist will work with you to design a medallion or border as unique as you are. Entryways or music rooms offer plenty of inspiration for your "one-of-kind" marquetry. Every medallion brings together art and technology, whether you choose an in-lay pattern, or a sculpted relief carving. More about wooden floor in-lays ...

The premium seats make up the lower bowl around home plate and were originally brought in from the Kingdome before its implosion in March of 2000.

The general admission seating is comprised of bleacher seats which include an alcohol-free family seating section.

The seating at Paul Thomas Sr. Field is known for its intimate proximity to home plate and the infield. A signature staple of the ballpark is the famous strikeout socks that are hung from a clothesline each time an AppleSox pitcher strikes an opposing batter out.

The beautiful confluence of the Wenatchee and Columbia Rivers forms the Wenatchee Valley, a unique and diverse region that has captivated the hearts and imaginations of many. The Wenatchee Valley welcomes you to high mountains with lush forests and pristine alpine lakes hidden from the too casual viewer. Wildlife abounds along the rippling streams that feed the wild waters of the Wenatchee River, finally merging with the mighty Columbia. A fishing and hunting ground for Plateau Indians for thousands of years, the Wenatchee Valley was settled during the 1870's by ranchers, traders and apple growers. Today, nature is at its unspoiled best beside cultivated fields and orchards heavy with fruit.

"Randy to the Rescue" to host a casting call for Denver brides
TLC's popular show Say Yes to the Dress is hosting a casting call for brides-to-be in Denver this week for the network's spinoff, Randy to the Rescue. The show features bridal fashion expert Randy Fenoli, who tours the country in his spinoff series to assist brides with selecting the perfect dress for their big day.
Brides who make it onto Randy to the Rescue receive the opportunity to shop for a variety of designer gowns that were hand-picked from Kleinfeld Bridal, a New York-based wedding gown supplier and the setting for Say Yes to the Dress. The ladies selected at the casting call will receive advice and assistance direct from Fenoli and their shopping experience will be featured in the show's upcoming season.
Casting for the show officially ends on Friday, but brides who can't make it to the call still have a shot to appear on the show, which will be filmed in Denver from December 8-10. Randy to the Rescue representative Kristen Chalos has been working to inform brides of the casting call and filming schedule via email and social media campaigns. "We are actually closing casting in the next few days, but if there are any brides who come in after closing we can certainly consider them as vignette brides, meaning that they may not necessarily have a full story on the episode, but they still have the chance to dress shop and get Randy's expert advice in the process," says Chalos of the casting process.
If you are interested in appearing on the show, email Chalos at firstname.lastname@example.com for detailed information.

Prue Salasky
"She has changed the way we think about pain."
Hospice practitioners, physicians, compounding pharmacists, nurses and medical students all attest to the influence of Maureen Carling in their approach to pain management.
An English-born nurse and hospice worker, Carling, 73, worked at Riverside in the 1990s before "retiring" in Williamsburg. In retirement she developed the "Carling Pain Assessment Algorithm," developed tapes and CDs and conducted workshops around the country on pain management.
This year, the Virginia Association for Hospices & Palliative Care recognized her work with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
While at Riverside, her supervisors noted that Carling's patients lived longer because she managed their pain better. As a newcomer and a nurse, Carling was reluctant to tell physicians how to do their jobs, but she soon became in demand for her skill in assessing pain and her ability to ease it through the use of targeted drugs administered topically.
"This is not nuclear physics. It's applied pharmacology and good nursing," Carling says, in a phone interview from Houston, where she is staying with her daughter Debbie. In October 2011, the midwife/home health visitor/registered nurse received a devastating diagnosis of advanced pancreatic cancer. Her ensuing treatment has put on hold her collaborative work in a pending clinical trial through the Pain Management Education and Research Foundation.
"On a scale of one to 10 (unbearable), how do you rate your pain?"
That's the question every medical practitioner traditionally asks. Carling explodes over the phone, "It doesn't assess pain.... Do you find it helpful? No. All you are asking is 'how bad is it?'"
She learned early in her career from an English doctor that most patients suffer from more than one type of pain and almost one-third from as many as four.
In order to zone in on her patients' suffering, Carling broke pain into eight types: bone, muscle, pleuritic, soft tissue, neuropathic, etc. To that she added questions about duration -- was it continuous, variable or intermittent. As an example, visceral pain "just aches all the time," she says, while pleuritic is worse with breathing and bone pain with movement. She asked her patients to describe their pain. Was it burning, shooting or stabbing. She asked them which drugs relieved their pain, to what extent and for how long.
"She came with a whole new look for pain management. It opened up a new area for us," says her former supervisor Sharron Nichols, nurse manager for Riverside Hospice. "She brought a different way to look at pain. She introduced more of a spiritual, personal element." She credits Carling with improving terminal patients' quality of life, which in turn led them to live longer.
Impressed by the skill of Carling's pain assessment, Brenda Clarkson, a fellow UK native and executive director of the Virginia Hospice Association, hired her to teach nurses at the hospice she ran in the Richmond area. "She's one of life's rare people, she's really made a difference," says Clarkson.
An avid talker, Carling found that other professionals were starting to listen to her. A professor at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville and Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond asked her to publish her findings. She started getting letters from doctors all over the country.
"There's no one more astonished than me," she says.
Abbot Laboratories in Illinois asked her to write more extensively. She joined a national speakers' bureau. She instructed the military at Fort Eustis and then at Fort Carson in Colorado, where she was awarded the Commander's Coin for Excellence.
She developed audiotapes, CDs and a workbook to pass on her findings and her assessment methods. She committed her algorithm, the Carling Pain Assessment Algorithm, to a single laminated card that nurses could carry bedside. She developed a body map for patients to pinpoint their pain along with its description and appropriate treatment.
"Opiates and narcotics don't relieve all pain," she says. "They relieve it in soft tissue, but bone pain isn't responsive."
"Pain is what the patient says it is."
Some may dismiss a patient's pain as psychosomatic, others as a drug-seeking ploy. "When you're in pain, you can do without that," says Carling with indignation. She emphasizes how documenting every detail helped her to gain buy-in from other medics. "I never stop marveling at her clinical evaluation skills," says compounding pharmacist David Creecy, owner of the Poquoson Pharmacy and current president of the Virginia Pharmacists Association. "She has a very good bedside manner and a very effective interview technique. She listens to her patients. She re-taught me to listen. The challenge is that it may take an hour."
By targeting the specific pain, Carling found that lower-dose drugs often worked better than more powerful medications and with fewer side effects. "Medical professionals are trained to treat the diagnosis, but chronic pain is completely different. The brain continues to send out pain signals even after wounds are healed. It creates changes in the nervous system," says Carling. She revels in "seeing the light go on" when doctors and nurses get an answer to something they didn't understand.
"When I first heard Maureen speak, she completely turned my understanding of pain management upside down. She is spellbinding," says Creecy, noting that medical professionals all have studied pain in the abstract, but her approach is revolutionary. "The number of people she has helped can't be counted."
When topical pain creams became available in 1996, Carling worked with Creecy and other compounding pharmacists to develop customized gels for her patients. "They're designed to permeate the skin and reach the receptors without getting into the system, the liver and kidneys," she says.
Carling maps out the dermatomes, where the nerves exit the spine, and applies the appropriate gel an inch on either side of the spine as well as where the pain is felt. "That way you're blocking it at the site as well as stopping the message that runs along the nerves to the cortex of the brain," says Clarkson, a disciple. "It's very effective."
Creecy estimates that Carling's methods double the efficacy of pain relief. For example, the hand dermatomes are C6, 7 and 8, near the top of the spine. If pain gel is applied only to the hand and not to the associated area of the spine, half of patients don't feel better, he says.
He wants her approach to be given more currency. He and his fellow compounding pharmacists are trying to persuade Carling to do a video recording so her teachings can continue.
"I am the pain doctor. I know I'm not alone," Carling says, expressing optimism that she'll beat her diagnosis. "I feel like I've been on a journey, a journey I didn't plan. I was going to retire in Florida. Now I just accept it. It has been a ride."
Lifetime Achievement Award
At the 32nd Annual conference of the Virginia Association for Hospices & Palliative Care in Richmond in May, pain nurse specialist Maureen A. Carling received a Lifetime Achievement Award "for her clinical expertise, her teaching prowess and her abiding commitment to patients facing life-threatening illnesses." Her signature achievement was the development of the Carling Pain Assessment Algorithm and the "Pain Management Workshop -- A Step by Step Approach" (Chatsworth Pain & Symptom Management, 2000).

The Muslim Brotherhood (al-Ikhwan al-Muslimeen) is Egypt's oldest and largest Islamist organization and has spawned Sunni Islamist groups throughout the Arab world. Banned from politics for its early aim of overthrowing the Egyptian government, the Brotherhood renounced violence in the 1970s and earned popular support by providing social services such as pharmacies, hospitals, and schools.
After the ouster of former president Hosni Mubarak in the Arab Spring protests of 2011, the group's political arm won parliamentary elections, and its candidate Mohammed Morsi was elected president. Many analysts saw the Brotherhood's political ascendance as a test of whether it remained ideologically committed to its founders' Islamist tenets or would be moderated by the exigencies of governing. However, Morsi's tenure was marked by widespread frustration with economic mismanagement and poor governance, and his administration was ousted by the military in July 2013. A violent crackdown followed in which Morsi, much of the Brotherhood's leadership, and thousands of its supporters were arrested, and more than one thousand supporters were killed, according to rights groups. The military-backed government banned the Brotherhood once again at the end of 2013, excluding it from mainstream political channels.
A History of Violence
More on:
Founded in 1928 by Hasan al-Banna, the Muslim Brotherhood is widely considered the world's most influential Islamist organization. Banna "rejected the Western model of secular, democratic government, which contradicted his notion of universal Islamic rule," noted Lawrence Wright in his book The Looming Tower. But while the Brotherhood's original mission was to Islamize society through the promotion of Islamic law, values, and morals, it has long combined preaching with social welfare and political activism.
The group earned legitimacy among its core constituency, the lower-middle class, as the most effective organized resistance against British domination (1882–1952). The Muslim Brotherhood joined with the Free Officers, nationalist military leaders who sought to wrest Egypt from the British-backed monarchy, but rivalry between the military and the Brotherhood ensued after King Farouk abdicated in 1952 and a military junta took charge with Gamal Abdel Nasser at the helm. The military envisaged Egypt at the helm of a socialist, secular, pan-Arab movement, while the Brotherhood rejected egalitarianism and nationalism as un-Islamic and called for the implementation of sharia.
These tensions culminated in an assassination attempt on Nasser in 1954. In response, thousands of suspected Brothers, including Sayyid Qutb, Banna's successor, were imprisoned. Though Nasser barred the group from government, the Brotherhood nevertheless became ubiquitous in society, building allegiance as a populist alternative to the Egyptian state, which provided neither prosperity nor welfare and suffered repeated military defeats by Israel.
Qutb developed a doctrine of armed struggle against the regime in Egypt and beyond while writing from prison after his arrest for the assassination attempt. His work, particularly the 1964 manifesto Milestones, has provided the intellectual and theological underpinnings for many militant Sunni Islamist groups, including al-Qaeda and Hamas. Extremist leaders often cite Qutb, who was hanged in 1966, to argue that governments not based on sharia are apostate and therefore legitimate targets of jihad.
Toward Pragmatic Politics
Though establishing an Islamic state based on sharia was at the core of the Brotherhood's agenda, the group gained prominence by effectively providing social services where the security state failed.
More on:
The Brotherhood renounced violence at the insistence of Anwar al-Sadat, Nasser's successor, who allowed the group to preach and advocate in exchange for its support against his political rivals, Nasser loyalists and leftists. Sadat paid lip service to sharia and freed imprisoned Islamists. He was assassinated in 1981 by members of al-Jihad who had split with the Brotherhood and resented Sadat's notional commitment to sharia, as well as the 1979 peace treaty with Israel.
The Brotherhood considered the regime Mubarak inherited from Sadat "stultifying, corrupt, and oppressive," scholar Nathan Brown wrote. He said the group reconciled its ongoing commitment to Qutb's principles with its renunciation of violence by focusing on the concept of a "vanguard," in which the group seeks to Islamize society "through a [political] elite" as much as it does "through mass work and engagement."
Brotherhood-affiliated candidates first participated in local and parliamentary elections as independents in 1984. Within the Brotherhood, members vary in the orthodoxy of their interpretations of Islam, as well as their ideological versus pragmatic inclinations, but the conservative and insular old guard has dominated in recent years.
Political Challenges Since the Revolution
The Brotherhood emerged as a dominant political force in Egypt following Mubarak's removal from office amid mass protests in February 2011 in part because its organizational capacity was unmatched, but the group's electoral victories were tarnished by power struggles with the judiciary and the military. Battles over the drafting of a new constitution were a particular flash point.
In winter 2011–2012 parliamentary elections, the Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) won nearly half the seats in the lower house (People's Assembly), and Islamists took 84 percent of the seats in the upper house (Shura Council). Pushing back against the Brotherhood's increasing power, in June 2012 the Mubarak-appointed Supreme Constitutional Court dissolved the People's Assembly and revoked a law that would have barred former regime officials from holding office, allowing Mubarak-era prime minister Ahmed Shafiq to vie for the presidency. Following a first round of voting in May, Muslim Brotherhood candidate Morsi won a narrow majority (51.7 percent) in a June runoff against Shafiq.
After his election, Morsi ordered the military, which had been acting as an interim government, to its barracks, a move welcomed by much of the officer corps, which was conscious of growing public resentment during its nearly one-and-a-half years at Egypt's helm.
With the lower house of parliament dissolved, Morsi had both executive and legislative control of the government. In late November 2012, Morsi declared himself, the Shura Council (previously a consultative body without legislative authority), and the constituent assembly immune from judicial review. The move provoked an immediate backlash, including public demonstrations against what opponents called a power grab. Though Morsi argued that the judiciary and much of the bureaucracy was dominated by feloul, or remnants of the Mubarak regime eager to impede the revolution's goals, intense popular opposition led him to annul the decree a month later.
Constitutional Struggle
Though the 2012 constitution was approved with a 64 percent majority in a nationwide referendum, just a third of the electorate voted in the December referendum. Opponents were concerned about the role of Islam as the basis of law, feared insufficient protections for women's rights and freedoms of speech and worship, and distrusted the broad power accorded to the presidency.
The conflict between Morsi and the judiciary continued in March 2013 when the Supreme Administrative Court overturned a presidential decree calling for April parliamentary elections, questioning the constitutionality of election law provisions. The secular opposition had previously called for a boycott of the vote.
Many analysts criticize Morsi's tactics as heavy-handed. Middle East expert Robin Wright referred to his style of governing as "majoritarianism," meaning "autocratic rule by the largest party." Opposition to Morsi's rule came to a head in June 2013 with his appointment of seventeen Brotherhood-affiliated provincial governors, including a member of the former militant group Gamaa Islamiya as governor of Luxor, where the group massacred dozens of tourists in 1997.
Following a new round of mass protests, the army, now led by General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, ousted Morsi on July 3, 2013, and suspended the new constitution. A fifty-member committee that convened to amend the constitution included just two Islamists, neither of whom represented the Brotherhood. Egyptians voted on the new constitution January 14 and 15, 2014.
The revised document keeps much of the 2012 text, analysts say, but tempers references to Islam as the basis of Egyptian law and bolsters the authority and autonomy of the military and judiciary. It also restores the 1971 constitution's ban on political parties with a religious foundation or reference, which could bar the FJP from electoral politics. Passage is expected, given public support for the new government, the Muslim Brotherhood's boycott of the vote, and a crackdown that has stifled dissent. Egyptian authorities said they will view a high voter turnout as a benchmark of legitimacy, and Sisi appears poised to use a resounding approval of the constitution as a launching pad for a presidential bid.
The Ballot or the Bullet?
Following the 2011 revolution, the specter of the 1979 Iranian revolution loomed large for many in the West who feared an Islamist regime in Egypt. CFR's Steven Cook says Mubarak used the organization as his "bogeyman for three decades," using the Iranian analogy to "stoke the fears of successive American administrations and, in turn, secure Washington's generous diplomatic, political, and financial support." Israeli leaders too, feared a replay of 1979.
Despite Morsi's sometimes inflammatory rhetoric, Israeli fears did not pan out. The Morsi government kept security and intelligence cooperation strong, maintained the 1979 Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty, and brokered a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas [PDF].
In the immediate aftermath of Morsi's removal, the Brotherhood announced it would "refuse to participate in any action with power usurpers." The group called for an uprising against those who would "steal their revolt with tanks and massacres," staging massive sit-ins to protest the transitional government. Security services responded with mass arrests and violent crackdowns.
Morsi stands accused of treason, inciting violence, and collaborating with Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas, among charges that critics say are politically motivated and, in some cases, implausible. As Morsi's first trial began in early November 2013, he rejected the court's authority and insisted that he remained Egypt's legitimate leader. Judges presiding over the trial of the Brotherhood's head, Supreme Guide Mohamed Badie, and his deputy, Khairat al-Shater, among others, withdrew in protest of what they saw as illegitimate proceedings. Egyptian security forces had refused to allow the accused to attend their trials.
The government declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, attributing to it a car bomb detonated in late December 2013 at a headquarters of the security services in the Nile Delta. But the government did not furnish evidence implicating the Brotherhood, which denounced the attack, and the Sinai-based militant group Ansar Beit al-Maqdis claimed responsibility. The declaration followed a September judicial ruling that banned the group's activities and seized its funds, and the adoption of a protest law that gives the police broad authority to restrict public gatherings. These laws, analysts say, preclude the possibility of political reconciliation.
The group's future trajectory will depend as much on its self-evaluation following the Morsi presidency as it will on whether the Egyptian state pursues a strategy of containment or eradication, Middle East Institute analyst Khalil al-Enani wrote. If the government chooses a strategy of containment, the Brotherhood could return to its roots in preaching and welfare and spin off the FJP as an independent political party in the mold of Turkey's Justice and Development Party, though this option seems to have been ruled out for the foreseeable future. If instead the government continues with a strategy of eradication, the Brotherhood's insularity and ideological cohesion will increase, and violent confrontation with the state security apparatus will be likely, el-Enani argued. While some analysts say the Brotherhood may retreat from politics altogether, others fear that without legitimate channels for it to contest the emergent order, the terrorist designation may become self-fulfilling.
Al-Qaeda quickly cited the Muslim Brotherhood's trajectory in Egypt as validation of its own narrative that democracy is not a viable path to power. The outcome of Egypt's "experiment in reconciling political Islam with modern government" will have regional consequences, inspiring "renewed violence by Islamists who feel shortchanged by democracy and secularism," CFR's Ed Husain wrote, adding that "Arab secularists ignore this greater narrative at their peril."

Pug in a Pickle
David Conlin of Springs was having his cesspool pumped on Jan. 10 when his dog Mookie ran out the back door and fell some 18 feet into the open cesspool.
Ray Serva, who happened to be at the house speaking to Jim Quackenbush of Quakenbush Cesspools of East Hampton, immediately ran to the truck to turn off the waste-suctioning pump. In a panic, Mr. Conlin tried to scoop up his swimming dog with a crabbing net, but was unable to reach him. The 20-foot-deep well was close to being empty, with just a couple of feet of methane-fumed liquid left. Mr. Conlin said that he wanted to jump in, but was advised against it by Mr. Serva, who told him, "You will die."
Mr. Quackenbush left for about 10 minutes to get an extension ladder and a Tyvec suit. Once he returned, Mr. Quackenbush, also a lieutenant in the Springs Fire Department, climbed down into the hole and rescued the dog.
In an interview on Tuesday, he said that in his 20 years of pumping cesspools, he has "never had an animal fall in before," and that he was "surprised he survived the fall."
Mr. Conlin said Tuesday that he was "surprised and grateful" that his dog was okay. Mookie was cleaned up and taken to East Hampton Veterinary Group following the incident, where he received a clean bill of health. And on Tuesday, before posing for pictures with his owner and Mr. Quackenbush, he pranced over the covered cesspool as if nothing had happened.
An earlier version of this story misidentified Mr. Serva as an employee of Quakenbush Cesspools.

DOVER, Del. - Wesley College's Jeff Morgan (Vineland, N.J./Vineland) and Chris Mayes (Waldorf, Md./Westlake) led a defense that held Division III's top scoring offense to just nine points - its lowest total since 2007 - in a 19-9 victory over Mary Hardin-Baylor.
With the win, Wesley advances to the NCAA Division III Semifinals for the fourth time since 2005. The Wolverines will host Wisconsin-Whitewater on December 11 at noon at Scott D. Miller Stadium.
Morgan registered 16 tackles in the game, while Mayes sacked the Cru's LiDarrel Bailey four times.
The Wolverines (12-0) struck first with a touchdown midway through the first quarter. On second and 10 from the UMHB (12-1) 24, Justin Sottilare (Columbia, Md./Oakland Mills) threw up a pass and Ellis Krout (Dallas, Texas/Roosevelt) outjumped the Cru defense for the game's first score. Wesley led just 6-0, however, after Ryan Metcalf blocked the extra point.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Wolverines fumbled in their own territory and UMHB took over at the Wesley 27. The defense held the Cru to just three yards and limited the damage to just a 41-yard field goal by Alan Munoz that cut the lead to 6-3 with 9:51 to go in the half.
The Wolverines answered back with field goals of 31 and 38 yards by Dan Tryon (Wilmington, Del./Salesianum) to take a 12-3 lead into the half.
Wesley was forced to punt on the opening possession of the second half and Javicz Jones blocked it giving the Cru the ball at the Wolverines' 27. Mike Asiedu (Yonkers, N.Y./Gorton) forced a Bailey fumble on third down and Sean Scanlon (Cherry Hill, N.J./Camden Catholic) recovered to get the ball back.
The recovery set up a 12-play, 86-yard drive for the Wesley offense that ran 6:29 off the game clock. Sottilare completed 6-of-9 passes on the drive, capped by a 24-yard pass to wide open Krout for touchdown that extended the lead to 19-3.
The Cru tried to answer back on its next possession. A short kick and a 22-yard return gave the offense the ball near midfield and eventual had a first and goal at the Wesley four yardline. Wesley then stopped the Cru on third down from the one yardline. On fourth down, UMHB was hit with a delay of game penalty and a rush by Daniels on fourth and goal was stopped in the backfield by Scanlon and Asiedu.
UMHB faced a third and 35 in the fourth quarter, but Bailey hit Trey Hazelton for 31 yards and on fourth down, Quincy Daniels went up the middle for a 42-yard touchdown that made it 19-9 after the two-point conversion failed.
Sottilare was 22-of-37 in the game for 252 yards and a pair of scores, both to Krout. The two touchdowns gave the junior quarterback 37 on the year, tying the school and conference single season marks. They also extended Krout's school and conference records for career receiving scores to 38.
In addition to Mayes' four sacks, Morgan and Devin Hardy (Baltimore, Md./Eastern Tech) each registered a quarterback takedown as Wesley registered six sacks against an offensive line that had allowed just eight in 12 games entering the day.
Morgan's 16 stops were the most by a Wolverine since Sean Matthews had 16 against Salisbury in 2008.
Krout ended the day with five grabs for 95 yards and Leonard Stevenson (Nanjemoy, Md./Lackey) hauled in seven for 67 yards. Brandon Wright (Clayton, N.J./Clayton) led the ground game with 62 rushing yards.
Daniels racked up 156 yards rushing to lead UMHB, but the rest of the team was held to a negative 20.
Bailey completed 8-of-23 passes for 97 yards. Ervin Johnson caught four of those passes for 56 yards.
Jones made a team-high 15 tackles, while Metcalf added 11.
