The two halves of tonight's Louie aren't as well-united as last week's little duo, but by the end of the hour, there's a strong sense of history running through the series, as well as a sense that even when people try to do nice things, they're mostly just thinking about themselves. Tonight, there's really nothing in the way of "story," as Louie goes to IKEA with Dolores (the woman from last year's fantastic "Blueberries" segment), aborts a piano lesson, and apologizes to an old friend for the second time. But in the first segment in particular, there are lots of great laughs. This might be the funniest episode of the season, even if it doesn't always hang together. (I say "might be" because I seem to be the only person on Earth who was wildly amused by the idea of a small boy who regularly eats bowls of raw meat in last week's episode.)
Both segments touch on the way that time sort of slips away from you, until it's a year after you hooked up with that woman you know through your kids' school or 10 years since you last spoke to the guy who was your best friend at one time. In one lengthy scene, Louie, on the phone with Sarah Silverman, watches footage of himself, then Sarah, then Marc Maron, when they were all working as stand-ups in the late '80s and early '90s. (The announcer says it's a show featuring footage from the '80s, but Maron's set seems to have come from 1990. So there.) It's weird to see all of these people as younger versions of themselves—particularly C.K., who looks agreeably baby-faced in the old footage—but it's also strange to think of them as the "establishment," and the kinds of people they were trying to join back when those jokes were first recorded.
In addition, this is the only stand-up footage in the whole episode. We don't cut to Louie at the comedy club at any point, for commentary on what's happened in the episode so far. Instead, we just have these old, flickering images from the past, offered up almost as commentary on who these people were and who they became. Tellingly, Louie never once laughs at the jokes the younger version of himself tells. Indeed, he occasionally seems a little depressed by them. He only starts to laugh when Silverman takes the stage, but when he gives her a call to tell her to watch the footage of herself, she mostly makes fun of how predictable her joke structure was in those days. It's only when Maron takes the stage that the segment starts to reveal some of what it's going for. Marc and Louie, see, were best friends back in the day, and then they had a falling out. The falling out isn't detailed, but what's important is that Louie has finally realized he was the one at fault. At Silverman's urging, he gets in touch with Marc to iron things out.
This puts this episode roughly in the same category as last year's Dane Cook affair, when Louie needed a favor from the immensely popular comedian, who was none too pleased about the way Louie had portrayed him as a joke thief. Though the Louie in Louie is meant to be a fictionalized version of Louis C.K., it's not hard to entertain the notion that in some episodes, he's just barely fictionalized. This is another instance of that, as if you listened to the episode of WTF featuring Maron interviewing C.K., you'll remember that they actually did have a falling out and were mad at each other for some time. (I can't recall if it was as serious a situation as the show depicts, however.)
The Dane Cook story rose above its roots in reality because it told a fairly straight-forward story about two comedians clearing the air between themselves after a serious dispute in which both had legitimate grievances. You didn't need to know the backstory to appreciate it, in other words. I'm not sure that's the case here, even if it's fun to see Maron pop up toward the episode's end. Watching Louie stumble his way through his apology—particularly without really knowing what he's apologizing for—isn't the most thrilling scene the show's ever come up with, and the final twist (that Louie actually went through this entire routine about five years ago) is fine, as these things go, but doesn't put much of a cap on the story. The Dane Cook storyline was so compelling because Cook's point-of-view was understandable, even if you didn't sympathize with it. Maron mostly just sits and listens, then says, "Hey, why do you keep apologizing?"
Or maybe that's more realistic. It's clear at this point that one of the real reasons Louie's approaching Marc is because he feels like asking for forgiveness will clear the water between them, will help him feel better about himself, rather than actually trying to repair the friendship. Marc, for his part, points out that maybe the two former friends should just go get coffee or something. That might be a better way to handle this whole situation. But there's still a sort of restrained hostility there, an animosity that suggests that Marc isn't too happy to be a prop in the Louie forgiveness tour. It's an interesting take on this particular story, but it's not especially funny or dramatic, just kind of fun to think about. And that leaves the mind to wander and wonder about the grievances between Maron and C.K. and how much of that made it onto screen.
The other segment—which I enjoyed more than the latter one—also deals with the ways that our attempts to help other people can often be self-serving, as Louie finds himself spending an awful weekend day at an IKEA in New Jersey with Dolores, who's still seemingly on the edge of completely falling apart. There have been complaints from some this season that the show falls back into the "women are crazy!" trope a little too easily (though I would say the presence of the "Daddy's Girlfriend" two-parter would give the lie to this idea), and I suppose I could see where this would be the ultimate expression of that. Yet it's also clear at all times that the joke is on Louie, that he's a guy who gets into these situations because he wants a little action (even if he's gentlemanly enough to turn it down when first offered), even though he's well in over his head. The bit where just the trip to IKEA seemingly turns the two into a bitter, old married couple develops suddenly, but it's hysterical all the same, and I loved the younger couple, promising to never turn into that somewhere down the line. (They will. Oh, they will. It's inevitable when you're in IKEA.)
Louie, just like the real-life Louis C.K., I'd imagine, and just like any other human being on this planet, has a tendency to get so wrapped up in his own stuff that he misses the forest for the trees. In the end, that's the biggest defense the show has against any concerns that it's all about Louie dealing with crazy women (or whatever you might want to throw at it): All of the people on the show are short-sighted and naïve, and maybe they catch a glimpse of something larger than themselves for just a little bit, but that inevitably gets stripped away in the moments after. Being human is all about missing the big picture, about occasionally seeing something clearly, before you blink and it's torn away. Maybe you get that glimpse when you're having a knock-down, drag-out fight with a woman you're not even dating in an IKEA. Or maybe you just get it every five years, and that keeps you from repairing an old friendship. Either way, it's that limitation that keeps life both interesting and frustrating. You never really know when it's all going to slip away.
Stray observations:
- For as funny as Maria Dizzia's return gig as Dolores was, the biggest laughs in the episode came from Maria Bamford calling to let Louie know that he had crabs.
- On the other hand, the old woman having her consultation with the pharmacist at the drug counter was a bit that mostly fell flat for me. I did like Louie's sheepishness about having to buy the crabs medication.
- Good nicknames for your girlfriend: hasenpfeffer.
- I was sure there was some sort of dead-on Louis C.K. impersonator playing the younger version of himself. But no. That was the real deal.
- We briefly flip past the reality show Louie was watching back in "Daddy's Girlfriend, Part 1." Said reality show features Michael Cyril Creighton, who's the star of a very funny web series named Jack In A Box. If you're into the theatrical world at all, you should definitely check it out.
- Dolores now owes Louie a blow job. So we'll almost certainly see her in season four, huh? I also hope we see Doris, the piano teacher, again.
- Nathan's off setting the world record for circumnavigating the globe while riding a grizzly bear. He'll be back next week.

Rarest of Bumblebees Rediscovered: "Cockerell's Bumblebee"
"The most rare U.S. species of bumblebee, last seen in 1956, has turned up once again in the White Mountains of south-central New Mexico. Called "Cockerell's Bumblebee," this prized pollinator is known from an area of less than 300 square miles, giving it the most limited range of any bumblebee species in the world…
Any story about bees surviving in the wild is uplifting news in light of the well-documented decline of bees worldwide. Recently the U.N. reported bee losses of up 85 percent in some areas of the industrialized northern hemisphere, where pesticides, pollution, and parasites may all be to blame.
Cockerell's Bumblebee, among nearly 50 species of bumblebees native to the U.S., has avoided many of these threats, living on protected national forest and tribal lands. For that reason, it is not especially surprising for an insect species to be rediscovered after decades, when people might otherwise imagine that it may have gone extinct…"

As long as I can remember I have always been fascinated by old buildings, barns and old houses. Just something about them has always brought out my curiosity. Wondering who might have lived there, what life was like when they were there and how life must have been so different for them.
It's almost impossible to imagine a world without computers, i-pods, cell phones or even electricity and running water. To think that these barns and buildings were once the center of a family's livelihood as well as the place they grew up and learned their skills for life is amazing to me.
So many now are just abandoned, setting there silently settling into the past. Unfortunately, we are slowly losing our past also with each passing of one of our senior citizens – for it is with them the actual memories of these buildings, barns and houses lie. Just imagine the stories they could tell if we just take a few minutes out of our busy lives to just sit and listen. I remember stories my mom used to tell that would outdo any script that Hollywood could ever come up with.

Lacie 2Big Network NAS Device: Shares Not Displaying In The Admin Interface
A small business I with has a Lacie 2Big Network NAS device which they use as a place for users personal folders and a company wide share. The Lacie 2Big Network has a lot of features for a little device that I initially though was basically nothing more than an external hard drive. This is not the case though and the Lacie 2Big Network functions as a feature full Network Access Server for small businesses. The software on the device though had been causing lots of problems including not allowing me to configure new users on existing shares, slow file transfers, and automatically logging me out from the web admin interface. The main issue though was the device was basically stuck in its current configuration since I could not add new users to shares. Below I describe the software that was on the device followed by a software update that resolved all of the issues.

Summer so far has been a whirlwind of family visits, hectic finals, and frantic attempts to fit time for friends in between work, travel, house projects (we built a pergola!), and my efforts to remember how to cook (buy food, prep food, cook food? Who has time for that?!)…
Progress on the (Ohio) Friendship Meter has been slow, as much due to my schedule as to those of my friends, but the season has not been wholly unproductive in terms of the Friends Forever Friendship Endeavor.
Counting the Blessings in Life
There are never enough minutes in the day (or days in the weekend!) to get as much done as I would like. I am a miserable Facebook contact, I seem to have forgotten what phone calls are, and I still haven't sent my thank-you notes from Christmas (so snail mail communication is pretty much out of the running for keeping in touch). Regardless, I have had some wonderful developments this year in the world of friendship.
I have also read that counting your blessings can improve your outlook on life and even keep you healthier. So instead of whining about how I never get to do as many social activities as I would like or moaning about how modern life is too busy to allow new friendship bonds to form, I would like to count my friendship blessings from the last month or two.
- Close friends from AZ visited for several days in June; we laughed, we played Scattergories, we drank craft beer. Who could ask for more?
- Another AZ acquaintance of mine (high school friend of my hubby's) got a summer internship in the area, and I will benefit from her limited local social network by being able to show her around town. In fact, I can use her visit as an excuse to see more of the city myself, since I'm still pretty new!
- Wedding bells, they are a-ringin'. Three friends tie the knot this summer. The wedding we already attended allowed us to explore Lake Geneva, WI with some great buddies from AZ, while celebrating the union of two other great buddies from AZ! The two weddings to come will be a nice reminder that the FFFE has been successful enough to earn me an invite to a very important day for two new friends. I suppose that is proof-positive of progress on the Friendship Meter.
- We bought a grill. I am aware that this is not a friendship blessing on its face, but so far we have used it as an excuse to BBQ with the neighbors and a few school friends, and even hosted a get-together for the 4th of July. Oh, sweet grilled meat and corn, to you do we owe our summer friendship successes.
And so, it is with a grateful heart that I report these few, but special, events in the Friendship Endeavor's summer session. The final phase of the year-long endeavor has gotten off to a pretty decent start.
June, July, and August will complete the year's endeavor, so I will draft up the plans and get them out ASAP. Things are looking up, and I don't see why the FFFE shouldn't continue on indefinitely!

The backbone of Fizzle is something we call the 9-Stage Small Business Roadmap, which guides you through every step of your business, from dream to plan to execution, iteration, quitting your job and picking out the private island that's right for your unique needs.
Here's a quick video overview of the roadmap:
Is Our Work Changing Lives?
The greatest compliment we can hope for as entrepreneurs is to find out what we've built actually means something, that what we're doing at Fizzle helps our members build thriving, matterful businesses.
A while back, a member wrote a post in the forums titled "What I really think about Fizzle." When you see a title like that about your work, you can't help but feel a little nervous to read the judgement that follows.
In this case, the post was from Tom Ross, one of the most ambitious and generous members in the Fizzle community, so we were even more anxious about reading what Tom had to say. His opinion is important.
This kind of feedback is what really matters. Traffic, followers, signups, and even revenue can all lie about your progress, but having an impact says something important.
If you can find a way to create this kind of transformation and experience for just one of your customers, you'll know that what you built actually means something. Changing lives isn't clichéd, it's the source of everything good in business and life. Aim to change lives and yours will change too.
How can you tell if your work is changing lives? If your impact is important enough, you'll hear about it. You can solicit feedback as well, but nothing feels better than a big compliment out of the blue, like we received from Tom.
We just had to share Tom's feedback with you, because we're so proud of what we've built at Fizzle and how much the community feels like family.
Here is Tom's complete, unedited post:
"What I really think about Fizzle." Forum Post by Member Tom Ross:
"I came to this community a few months back after a crushing business blow that was outside of my control. It was pretty much a case of pack this whole thing in and retreat with my tail between my legs, or keep fighting, and get some clarity and direction in the process.
I came here thinking that it would be too basic for me, more aimed at beginners, and that I wouldn't really learn anything new.
I was half right.
I already knew my way around WordPress.
I knew email list growth was important.
I knew a lot of things.
Two things I wasn't so hot on?
Taking action and doing the right work
Fast forward just a few months and here's where I'm at:
I've gone from 10 email sign ups per week to 160+ on my blog
I've abandoned a posting schedule that was stressing me to death and now publish great content once a week, stress free. I can now enjoy holidays away from the internet, whereas before I'd be constantly working, annoying those around me.
I've gone from not knowing my audience, to understanding them really well, and getting personal with a good number of them
I've gone from almost getting a traditional job to knowing through and through I'm in this entrepreneurial thing for life
I've gone from working with annoying, selfish clients to working with the most respectful, grateful clients I've ever encountered, who I now call friends
I've gone from feeling alone on this journey, to having a great community of contemporaries and friends all in this thing with me
My sense of design has evolved at a quicker pace then ever
I've learnt more about online business and marketing in 5 months than I did in 5 years.
I make daily progress, as opposed to stagnating and plateauing
I found motivation to pick myself up and start a new company, with a great team that looks set to do spectacular things
I discovered a joy for teaching that was always there, but never properly uncovered
I've been lucky enough to help a good number of people with their designs and businesses
I feel matured and changed as a person, with more clarity and direction in life
I've cut away the crap. All the meaningless work and pointless metrics. The wasted time, and wasteful people.
Fizzle doesn't create greatness in lazy, greedy people. It let's you do what you're truly capable of.
I talk about minor successes and general progress on these forums, but this place has been nothing short of life changing."
Three Tips for Having More Impact and Finding Out How You're Doing
- Visualize and articulate the transformation you want your customers to go through. How will you meaningfully impact their lives with your coaching, courses, services, software, podcast, etc.? Care about their success more than you care about your own.
- Measure things that tell you how much of a difference you're making. Give up metrics like traffic, followers and social media shares, in favor of metrics that measure customer progress and satisfaction. Constantly ask yourself how things can be reengineered to deliver more value to your customers.
- Ask your customers for feedback and take it to heart. Give people easy ways to share what they think. Tell them you're listening and that you care.

Mythic Beings presents an outstanding collection of 75 compelling works, all in vivid colour, by 34 of the best First Nations artists working on the Northwest Coast today. The power of their art comes from its deep roots in an ancient culture that is rich in ceremonial and aesthetic traditions.
The mythic beings depicted in these 75 works belong to the undersea, sky, mortal and spirit worlds: Raven, Thunderbird, Killerwhale, the chief of the undersea, Moon, Volcano Woman and many more. Their adventures are told in oral histories passed down through generations. Here, these myths and mythic beings take shape as model totem poles, jewellery, carved and painted boxes, painted drums, rattles, ceremonial robes and masks—as well as sculpture in argillite, wood and glass.
Some of the beings are represented by works by different artists or in different media, providing a glimpse of the richness and resonance of an art strongly connected to myth and spirituality. The challenge facing artists today is to interpret myths in ways that combine innovation and tradition. That Northwest Coast art continues to flourish both in its original cultural context and in the international art world is a measure of their success.
Gary Wyatt's introduction outlines the integral place of art in the ceremonial and spiritual life of Northwest Coast societies. He provides insights into the cosmology of the Northwest Coast, as well as retelling some of the major myths. In addition, each work is accompanied by the artist's own words describing its meaning, cultural significance and creation.

I have a silly question. Does anyone know if you can turn a lawyer's office into BBB or is there another route you have to take? I had some problem's with a specific office here in town and later found out that what they did was illegal and unethical. I found out from another attorney and was told that I needed to report it. Of course I was so upset at the time that I didn't think to ask who to report it to. It isn't the lawyer that is the problem, it is the paralegal that works there and unfortunately they are married so reporting it to the lawyer would do no good. I tried and he just made excuses for her. She is very unprofessional.She even tried to get me to pay for copies of my own file after the case was done. She had on several occasions yelled at me on the phone and hung up on me for telling her she was being unprofessional. I find it hard to believe I was the only one that had any trouble with her. I talked to the other paralegal in the office and she said she has ran off more clients than they can keep. I feel sorry for the attorney, he is a very nice man and did a wonderful job on my case. She just needs to be reported before she closes him down completely.
If what she did was illegal, why don't you report it to the Sheriff?No thanks needed JB.
Thanks a lot that would go over real big.
I'm a little curious as to why you would think you wouldn't have to pay to have copies done? Nothing in this world is free, somebody has to pay for them, and if they are for you, why shouldnt that person be you?
Probably a typical pulaski county resident who didnt pay their lawyer and when stuff didnt get done wonders why and feels wronged.
You have such a positive spin for every topic.
In a court case i had that i needed an attorney for i got a copy of all my paperwork and didnt have to pay for it.. now it might have been in his fees but it was a set fee. Now on the other hand if she got a copy and requested another copy, then yes she should pay for them

I'm new to Montreal and the Mlug. This is the first content I've created.
I've been reading about an organization called Free Geek:
Original Location in Portland, Oregon:
A Canadian Location in Van City:
I subsequently went looking for something similar in the Montreal area, Google turned up nothing so I decided to use another excellent resource, all of you.
So do any of you know of a organization similar to Free Geek (non-profit computer reuse, repair, repurpose, recycling)?
And if there isn't anything similar would anyone be interested in helping start one?

Alpha-fetoprotein Levels After Treatment for Testicular Cancer
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
Our 24 year old son has stage I non-seminomatous testicular cancer. Part of the follow-up is a check on the alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in the blood every two weeks. The AFP is considered a marker for this type of cancer. We have not been able to pinpoint the acceptable level of AFP. To add to the confusion, our hospital reports normal levels are 6 or less, while another has a 10 or less. Further adding to the confusion, we have read on another site that a normal level in healthy human being can vary from 0 to 25. His AFP has dropped from a high of 120 pretreatment, to 3.8 in mid-July after one testis was removed in late-April. The problem is that the AFP has been going up ever since with his current level of 7.1 as of late September. CT scans, so far, have been OK.
Thank you for taking this matter in consideration.
Dear D.G.,
Thank you for you question and interest.
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a tumor marker for non-seminomatous testicular cancer. Beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (ß -HCG) is also a known marker for this malignant entity. AFP is a glyocoprotein produced in the fetal yolk sac, liver and gastrointestinal tract. It is elevated in about 70% of non-seminomatous testicular cancer. It has a half-life of five days in the blood. Normal levels can vary. You must inquire about the normal levels for your hospital or oncologist, since each laboratory may be different in assessing the blood levels of AFP. If, as you seem to have stated, 6 is the upper limit of normal, the level of 7.1 is concerning.
Please discuss these issues with your son's oncologists or cancer team. They may recommend further imaging studies or prophylactic treatment with radiation or chemotherapy.

Hi everyone, I'm here because I'm looking for some insight, advice and hopefully answers to my particular situation.
I'm a 32 year old married father of 2, I became a Christian back 2004 after a supposed 'word from God' but perhaps largely because my wife and all her family are members of the Anglican/Charasmatic movement and maybe felt some sort of affinity to them. I even went so far as to join the worship team of an extremely large and popular charasmatic church in Oxford which have been involved with since 2005.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I've recently started to seriously question my belief structure. I've never felt entirely 'comfortable' with being a Christian in the way I always thought I should be, I never really prayed in public, I couldn't quote you specific scripture like a pro and always thought that the Church I am a part of uses emotional manipulation through 'sad and songs' and the pastors alter call to invoke a sense of vulnerability, surely not something I should be thinking if I truly 'get it'
In the last few years she has become more and more extreme in her views, dare I say fundamentalist. Don't get me wrong, she is a very kind, polite and caring woman, but I can no longer stomach some of the things she passionately believes and I'm seriously considering de conversion. She has been a Christian since she was born lived, breathed and evangelised the Christian doctrine and for the longest time we were very happy, having two gorgeous sons
However I've recently had cause to come clean to my wife of 7 years, who is what I would call a 'born' Christian of a string of indiscrections since before we were married, this understandably has caused her great pain for which I am truly sorry, however she has now told me that the ONLY way of saving our marriage is through Christian channels/the grace and love of God or not at all.
Now fair enough, hands up I should take what is coming, but I love my boys and would be prepared to do anything to stay with them, I feel a great affection for my wife as my best friend and indeed all the friends I have made through the Church, but knowing that I feel the way I do about my (lack of) faith I am torn as to weather I should take the step and tell her I can't pursue Christian channels with a clear conscience for the sake of staying in our marriage.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, I appreciate your comments

I caught it too Kara, though I don't think it was intentional - was that what they call a Freudian slip? (I heard he used to wear one --)
hahahaha...I do believe it was!! I think you may be right...:-P
Jaret - "I have ADD and dyslexia and I am not nearly as bad as almost every christian I talk to. I think it is because the only reading they do is in 14th century old English."
Anal retentive too?
"Miguel, I noticed you just joined. It looks like you just joined to specifically comment on this post."
So what?
"People do not come here to hear the christian opinion. They get that every day in the world."
Why close down half the debate? Why close your eyes to half the situation? If we can't be free-ranging, then we're just hobbled.
Do you still love her? Do you still find it a beautiful moment to have her by your side while you sleep together? Is she still beautiful to you? Do you wish to be with her for the rest of your life? If yes, then I think you need to do everything you can to remain a positive influence in the church that she is with - still give to charity and still attend services with her and still bring up your boys around the church. Just make it known that you personally can't believe some of the doctrines that the church might preach but perhaps you still respect Jesus as a good moral teacher and suggest to her that God aside, you still find value in many of the things that christianity observes - such as loving thy neighbor or doing good / charitable things.
Now if you can't admit those things I listed as being part of your philosophy then it appears you may not be at all even closely related to a christian philosophy.
I don't think you need to believe in virgin births and transubstantiation and hellfire to still be a part of a church. If she thinks you need to believe these things or if she feels that you are going to hell or leading your children to hell by going against what she believes is the 'true' christian theology - then I am afraid this might not help in keeping your relationship together. Good Luck and keep us updated.
By the way , what is this string of indiscretions you speak of? Did you cheat on your wife and were you an alcoholic or are these things other posters have conjured out of thin air?
I asked that too, Dustin, and I've yet to get a response. This was as close as anyone has yet come:
"So because I've had a few instances over the last 10 years where I've been a little weak in part due to the influence of alcohol (and I'm not even talking about sleeping around) that automatically disqualifies me from the right to bring up my kids?"
that's pretty much what it boils down to, over the last 10 years I've been unfaithful in the form of a few drunken kisses, only the last time I'd taken it much further with a colleague at work.. not easy admitting to anyone you're a cheating scumbag. Needless to say I recognise it's not right and don't want to be this sort of person anymore, hence coming clean.
only the last time I'd taken it much further with a colleague at work.. not easy admitting to anyone
Your hand hurt from all the high-fives?
Richard -
I've just been reading the Dhammapada.
"He who overcomes the evil he has done with the good he afterwards does, he sheds a light over the world like that of the moon when free from clouds."
You know how Christians love a repentant sinner. You know how it's good to BE a repentant sinner.
If you truly adopt the core Christian virtues, then perhaps this is something your wife can work with. You don't even have to believe in God - but she needs to be satisfied that she can approve of you and respect you (and of course, trust you). Outside of the core virtues, all the rest is just detail in my opinion, and open to taste and freedom of choice.
Jaret said that one of his parents is an atheist and the other is a devout Christian, and it works fine.
You can't be born christian. I can't imagine an infant/newborn has the mental capacity to even understand surroundings let alone believing in a deity. This wife of yours got tricked into believing in her youth. (the most vulnerable years).
So the only way to save your marriage is to believe in hate and violence is what I'm getting here. You can't stay with this women. You'd be doing it for all the wrong reasons. You can have custody of the kids saying that if they stay with her, they'd be heavily brainwashed which is pretty much child abuse.
Adultery is like betrayal of trust. Isn't that what christians are good at though? Betrayal...She should be rewarding you, or is it only a virtue when they do it to someone else...

In a blistering rebuke of BP's criticism of the administrator who is processing claims from last year's multibillion dollar Gulf oil spill civil settlement, a federal judge Friday scolded the company for its public attacks and quickly rejected its request to halt payments to victims of the disaster.
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier in New Orleans said BP's personal attacks on claims administrator Patrick Juneau have been "offensive," and he especially noted that he didn't care for comments the chief executive of the company, Bob Dudley, made on CNBC on Thursday. Dudley said the settlement had been "hijacked" by the administrator's office.
"Mr. Juneau is not a good ol' boy plaintiffs attorney as some have suggested," Barbier said at the hearing, which was accessible via a telephone dial-in number.
BP had asked for an injunction to halt payments from the settlement until an independent investigation of Juneau's office has been completed.
While Barbier noted that probe is continuing, he believes Juneau himself has acted with the highest level of integrity, and he noted that both BP and the plaintiffs attorneys who negotiated the settlement had selected Juneau.
BP said in a statement it is dissappointed by Barbier's ruling. It said it would review its available legal options. There was no immediate comment from the plaintiffs attorneys on Barbier's decision.
BP claims that two of the three senior legal counsel to Juneau's office were fired recently after apparently intervening in the processing of claims in which they appear to have had a financial stake.
BP says that because those individuals were in a position to influence nearly every policy decision or claim determination by the settlement program, there is a risk that other aspects of the claims process have been compromised.
BP had asked that all claims payments be halted until former FBI Director Louis Freeh's investigation is complete. Barbier had ordered the probe, but had noted that he was doing so to maintain integrity in the claims process. The judge has not said he has found any corruption.
Attorneys for victims of the oil spill opposed BP's request for an injunction.
The lead attorneys for a steering committee that negotiated the settlement with BP on behalf of thousands of victims said BP has not identified a single claim that it contends was tainted or otherwise affected by an alleged conflict of interest involving the lawyers who used to work for the settlement program.
They said that based on the existing record, allegations involving the former staffers appear to represent a limited and isolated situation, to which the claims administrator immediately and appropriately responded.
So far, Juneau has offered about $4 billion to victims of the disaster off Louisiana.
Juneau's attorney noted that Juneau already has placed on hold those claims with any remote connection to the parties under investigation.
Juneau has previously said he will continue to administer settlement payments as he has been until he is told otherwise by the court.
BP, meanwhile, is awaiting a decision by a federal appeals court on its challenge of the way business economic loss claims are being handled by Juneau's office.

Teacher resources and professional development across the curriculum
Teacher professional development and classroom resources across the curriculum
Teaching for conceptual change
This program explores one of the central problems in teaching
chemistryhow to encourage students to create conceptual
models for chemical changes. This requires that students
make observations at a macroscopic level and then try to
explain how the changes occur by visualizing those molecular
micro-processes, which can only be thought about or imagined.
Conceptual change must occur in order for students to understand
chemical phenomena. Teaching for conceptual change poses
a great challenge to teachers because they must create a
rich variety of models in order to help students visualize
microenvironments and processes that occur within them.
"The most powerful thing you
can do when you're learning chemistry is to zoom down
in your mind's eye to the molecular level and try
to imagine what is going on and, in a sense, try to understand
the personalities of the reactants and products. If you
can use more than one model to illustrate something, having
each model showing a different aspect of the information
conveyed, that's ideal."

Field Station Leader: Dr. Shane R. Siers
The Hawaii field station was established in 1967 to conduct research to reduce rodent depredation in Hawaiian agricultural crops, particularly sugarcane and macadamia nuts. Biologists at the Hawaii field station conduct laboratory and field studies to develop biological and ecological data needed for more effective use of new and existing methods to control rat damage. They study the biology and impact of rats, as well as evaluate the efficacy and safety of control techniques. In addition to addressing wildlife problems in agricultural crops, station biologists are also involved in applying the knowledge and techniques gained in agricultural settings to develop appropriate methods and tools for controlling rats in native ecosystems.
Further information about the research conducted at the Hilo, HI Field Station can be found on the Methods and Strategies to Manage Invasive Species Impacts to Agriculture in Hawaii Research Project page.

Zack Mills has been named the new executive chef at Wit & Wisdom, A Tavern by Michael Mina, the everyday restaurant at the Four Seasons Baltimore Hotel. His first day in the position was Monday.
Mills, a native of Davidsonville, is the third executive chef for Wit & Wisdom, which is operated by the San Francisco-based Mina Group. The opening chef, Benjamin Lambert, was replaced in June 2012 by Clayton Miller, who is leaving Mina for a job in Florida.
"I'm extremely excited about the opportunity," said Mills, who has been with the Mina Group for five years and helped to launch the openings of Wit & Wisdom and Pabu, the Japanese restaurant at the Four Seasons Baltimore.
"I've been a big part of this project since the beginning," Mills said. "The momentum here has been great. I want to make it better and better."
Mills said he anticipates no wholesale changes to Wit & Wisdom's menu, which underwent a format change this spring, including the addition of "Bourbon bar" burgers and a Maryland blue crab tasting.
More recently, the restaurant introduced the Harbor East Express Lunch, a $19.95 two-course lunch, available on weekdays from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Carpenter's 40 Not Enough in Loss to Davies
Grand Forks Central 63, Valley City Boys 57
Friday in Grand Forks
Top Scorers:
GFC: Killian Gause 24, Samuel Flaagan 20
VCHS: Chase Carpenter 24, Mason Denholm 11
Fargo Davies 83, Valley City boys 69
Saturday at the HAC
Dav. 33 50 — 83
Top scorers
Dav: Tanner Kretchman 38, David Olson 17
VC: Chase Carpenter 40, Jared Lentz 17
By Scott Schlaufman
Over the last several years, Valley City High School senior Chase Carpenter has been one of the team's most consistent scorers.
This year, he hoped he might hit 30.
But as time progressed in the the Hi-Liners' 83-69 loss to Fargo Davies Saturday at the Hi-Liner Activity Center, he realized he could do even better.
"Halfway through (the second half) I had 23 in the paint and I had two three pointers, so I was at 29, I was like 'okay, I'm going for a little more than that,'" he said. "We were trying to get the W but it didn't work out that way."
Carpenter finished the game with a career high 40 points, accounting for all but eight of the Hi-Liners' (4-8 overall, 0-7 Eastern Dakota Conference) 31 points in the second half points.
According to records posted on the Valley City Public Schools website, it is the fourth-highest scoring game in school history. It's bested only by only Jeff Boschee and Hibb Hill, who had 45-point games, and Chris Heetland, who had a 43-point point game. A handful of Hi-Liner alumni sit below Carpenter with 39.
It wasn't selfishly played basketball, though, as the Hi-Liners competed point-for-point with a Davies team that beat top-ranked Red River Friday night in overtime.
Similar to the Hi-Liners, Davies relied largely on the efforts of one player — Tanner Kretchman — who had 38 points, including 31 of his team's 50 in the second half.
In the case of both Kretchman and Carpenter, neither played selfishly, but simply found their shots at the right times.
When theteams opened the game, Davies got ahead 2-0, but Valley City took a 5-4 lead on a 3-pointer by Carpenter three and a half minutes in.
Carpenter eventually contributed five points to a 10-point run that gave the Hi-Liners a 17-11 lead.
The Hi-Liners spent most of the half getting a short lead, only for Davies to whittle it away.
Though Carpenter provided 17 points, many of the key shots in the half came from Jared Lentz, who hit five 3-pointers and finished the half with 15 points.
"He gave us that lead," VCHS coach Scott Hurlimann said. "(Davies) did a better job in the second half of making sure he didn't get on fire again, but Jared Lentz did a lot for us in that first half."
Out of halftime, it became a two-man show, featuring Carpenter and Kretchman, almost exclusively, playing for the win.
Kretchman opened the half with a 6-0 run against the Hi-Liners to get his team a 39-38 lead.
But Carpenter battled back with a 6-2 run to make it 44-41 Valley City.
It took seven minutes for an Eagle besides Kretchman to score, when David Olson hit a layup to tie it at 46.
Valley City didn't have a player besides Carpenter score until nearly halfway through the half when Mason Denholm hit a layup.
The teams rode their main attackers, with Kretchman hitting 3-pointers from all over the court, and Carpenter hitting layups despite taking fouls and being double teamed near the basket, and kept the score within a few points.
Davies' break started to come after Carpenter had a 3-point play to make it 61-60 in Davies' favor with 5:43 left.
Following that, Davies' Andrew Kozlowski had a 3-point play to make it 64-60.
The Hi-Liners got a free throw from Tayler Lentz, but struggled with foul trouble as starter Jarod Nelson fouled out. A 3-pointer by Kretchman made it 67-61.
Carpenter had five points to make it 69-66 in favor of Davies.
The Eagles then went on a run, getting two 3s from Kretchman and two free throws from Olson to make it 77-66 with a minute and a half left.
The Hi-Liners' final points came on a 3-pointer from Kyle Knutson with a 1:24 left.
Kretchman finished the second half with seven 3-pointers and 31 points to lead Davies with his 38. Olson had 17, including five free throws.
Carpenter's 40 led Valley City and Jared Lentz had 17. No other Hi-Liner had more than four points.

Living for God One Step at a Time
The world says that greatness is wealth, beauty, smarts, fame, etc. It says that in order for women to succeed we must be independent, get our degrees, be financially successful to do whatever we please. A woman who nurtures her children, keeps order in her household, blesses those around her by her gentleness and submissive spirit to her husband (Proverbs 31; Titus 2), is neither praised nor valued by society. And sometimes, because Christ isn't at the center of our lives, the grass starts to look greener on the other side. The world's ways start looking more appealing, and our focus gets lost. It might be a time of complaining and griping about how little we can accomplish and it seems like nothing ever happens. Or maybe it might be more drastic, like running away from our problems by pretending they aren't there and don't affect us. So it may seem, that when we get to these points, hope fades away. How is it possible to turn back to the truth when we've rejected it so much? But there is always hope, because of a Friend and Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Becoming a woman of God is a slow and long process that takes time, patience, mistakes, getting back up and starting again; it's a process that is painful yet amazing, ugly yet beautiful, and it's a process that I wouldn't trade for anything in the world. May we be continually reminded that God's way is best no matter how green the grass looks on the other side. . .
She sits at her desk
As she thinks of her tasks.
The monotony, the drudgery,
Is this all life asks?
What of the dishes?
What of the clothes?
Shopping and meals,
"Do we need more of those?"
The life-changing things
Is what I want, she says.
The challenge, the adventure,
Living life on the edge.
How long must she stay here?
What must she do?
To end this path mundane,
And start life anew?
So she starts her seeking,
And looking around.
But then something hits her,
And its message resounds.
Bold are the words
As they run through her mind
"Why aren't you seeking Me instead?"
Rang like a chime.
"You waste so much effort
On plans that aren't Mine.
Be still and listen.
And then you will find...
That all the monotony and drudgery
Is exactly the thing I want you to do.
Be patient,
Take joy in all tasks that I give you.
Learn to be virtuous,
Learn to be pure.
Learn obedience,
While I give strength to endure.
The girl could now see
What her problem had been.
She now was contrite,
And ashamed of her sin.
But the Lord saw her sorrow,
And gently reminded;
His grace was sufficient,
And His love was not blinded.
She renewed her commitment
And learned to obey.
The years passed on,
And now today?
Her husband and children
Can't thank God enough
For the blessing He's given them
Once a diamond in the rough.
She lives as a light.
Silently, gloriously
As the threads of her life,
Leave their mark upon history.
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. ~Proverbs 31:10
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. ~1 John 2:17
Philippians 3:12-14

Entering the 2012 season, rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill was supposed to be a project for the Miami Dolphins. Folks were excited to see what fellow first-round draft picks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III could do with the Indianapolis Colts and Washington Redskins, respectively, but Tannehill wasn't even expected to see the field for a year or so. However, after his first five games as Miami's starter, I think Tannehill has proven his doubters wrong by showing he's nearly as good as his higher-profile peers.
|How They Stack Up Through Five Weeks
|Griffin III
|*Through four games
After a rough welcome to the NFL, with the Houston Texans picking him off three times in a season-opening loss for the Dolphins, critics began to question whether he had what it would take to get the job done. But since then, he's improved significantly, especially in the last two weeks, lighting up the Arizona Cardinals' tough pass defense for 431 yards (the second most by a rookie QB and the most in team history) and a touchdown in Week 4 and guiding Miami to a hard-fought 17-13 win over the Cincinnati Bengals last Sunday.
Watching the game tape on Tannehill, I can really see the progress he's made since Week 1. Tannehill's development goes beyond stats. He's a smart guy, and he's making important adjustments from one game to the next in a way that suggests very good things about his future.
For example, in a tough overtime loss to the New York Jets in Week 3, Tannehill threw a pass to the incorrect shoulder of a receiver who was running a particular route. The receiver caught the pass, so Tannehill got away with the mistake, but it was a mistake nonetheless. Some rookies might fail to recognize or fix that kind of miscue, but in the following game, when he attempted to go to a receiver running the very same route, Tannehill threw to the correct shoulder. He hasn't repeated that mistake since.
Dolphins personnel know he has the skills to become a special player, and they notice his leadership abilities when it comes to his veteran teammates. After all these years, it would seem that Miami has finally found a true successor to Dan Marino.
But why was he overlooked heading into the draft? And even after he was drafted eighth overall, why did most football people think it was going to take him some time to become a starter?
I think the issue is that sometimes we try to find everything wrong with a player, and really dwell on the flaws we find. Two of the big knocks on Tannehill were his relative lack of experience (he'd started just 19 games at quarterback for Texas A&M, while Luck started 38 at Stanford and RG3 started 40 at Baylor) and a high number of tipped passes.
But as I said, Tannehill is a very smart guy. After all, according to his old Texas A&M biography, becoming an orthopedic surgeon was one of his career goals. And while smart guys don't necessarily make for smart football players, Tannehill is a smart guy who really gets football. He's a highly focused person who appears to have a better feel for the game every week, learning to avoid those tipped throws and correcting things like pass location.
Something that's also helped Tannehill a great deal is the fact that his old coach at Texas A&M, Mike Sherman, is the Dolphins' offensive coordinator. Sherman knows Tannehill and the kinds of throws he can make, and Tannehill likely knows much of the terminology the Dolphins use. Going to a relatively familiar situation with Sherman likely helped Tannehill cut down on the time it took him to adjust; if he'd gone to a different team, perhaps he would have struggled a bit more in his first season.
Perhaps folks should have seen Tannehill's success coming, given that he has a history of defying expectations. Playing for a high school team in Big Spring, Texas, that threw the ball sparingly, he was not heavily recruited, even though he had the size, speed and mental ability to be a big-time college quarterback, and even though (like most signal-callers who come up in Texas) he worked on his passing game intensively in 7-on-7 football. When he landed at Texas A&M, he spent his first two seasons as a receiver. But when he finally got under center in 2010, Tannehill thrived, setting a school record by passing for 449 yards and four touchdowns in his first start.
So maybe folks shouldn't have expected David Garrard or Matt Moore to be starting for the Dolphins this season, as so many of us did. And after Tannehill won the job and seemed to struggle in his first game against the Texans, maybe folks shouldn't have been so quick to wonder about him. After all, two of the three interceptions in that game came on tips by Texans defender J.J. Watt, who has made a habit out of victimizing quarterbacks like that all season. And Tannehill has really cut down on those kinds of mistakes.
Unfortunately, because he was in the same draft class as Luck and RG3, Tannehill will probably always be sort of the third guy. But Tannehill has performed almost as well as them, even though he doesn't have the equivalent of Colts receiver Reggie Wayne or Redskins receiver Santana Moss to throw to (though Brian Hartline could eventually get to that level). While Luck entered the league light-years ahead of everybody, I think Tannehill is about on the same plane as RG3.
We've seen just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what Tannehill can do, and I think time will show him to be a very good NFL quarterback.
» Luck, who dazzled in the Colts' surprising win over the Green Bay Packers, is another guy who really has a great feel for the game. On Saturday, I saw Bob Bowlsby, the former Stanford athletic director and current Big 12 commissioner, in the press box at the West Virginia-Texas game. I mentioned that Stanford is having a bit of a hard time this year. He said of course they are, because they don't have the human computer anymore. That's the only way you can describe Luck. I think in the future, we're going to be talking about Luck in the same way folks talk about Peyton Manning now.
» When Johnny Unitas' record for consecutive games with a touchdown pass was broken by New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees on Sunday, I was reminded of an outing he had shortly before his 47-game streak ended. On Oct. 30, 1960, Unitas completed just eight of 16 attempted passes against the Dallas Cowboys, for whom I was working at the time, but racked up 270 yards and four touchdowns. Interestingly, when his streak ended five weeks later, it was in a game against the Los Angeles Rams -- the Baltimore Colts' opponent when Unitas started his historic run on Dec. 9, 1956.
» My defensive unsung hero for Week 5 was Washington Redskins linebacker London Fletcher, who had 20 tackles against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Fletcher was an undrafted free agent from John Carroll, a small Division III school near Cleveland, and is still a defensive leader in his 15th season. My offensive unsung hero was New York Giants rookie receiver Ruben Randle. Targeted nine times -- more than any other Giants receiver -- in New York's win over the Cleveland Browns, Randle caught six passes for 82 yards, and also was trusted as a punt returner.

AFR and Jason Barker Produce WORSHIP & YOU
WORSHIP & YOU, the new multimedia study for Orthodox Christian adults and teens from Jason Barker and Ancient Faith Radio, aims to help Christians deepen their worship of God, and take the transforming power of that experience into their daily lives.
Focusing on the main services of the Orthodox Church and personal prayer, Worship & You looks at the meaning of what takes place during liturgical worship, and how this applies outside of the church in the everyday world.
Participants can download study guides as well as discussion guides with questions; these free resources will be available in two versions: one for adults, and another for teens. Those interested in supplementing the material can also download the related episodes of either the Worship & You podcast (for adults) or re/CALL podcast (for teens).
The podcasts and study material are written by Jason Barker, who also creates numerous studies, podcasts and resources for AFR, the Department of Youth Ministry of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, the Orthodox Christian Network, and other Orthodox groups.

A Guide for the Perplexed
Mar/Apr 2014
In this first issue of the Blueprint we go deep into the minds of nations and people … diagnosing the drives of geopolitical madness, societal schizophrenia and ecological sociopathy. American psychosis, Israel's PTSD, France's depression, Canada's coming–of–age–crisis and Australia's impenetrable denial.
We go one step deeper and pull back the bandages on the festering psychic wounds of our lives. Then, and only then, can we move through denial, anger, bargaining and depression to acceptance. But will our civilization ever be able to face up to its imminent mortality? Will we learn, as a civilization, how to die … and free ourselves to deal with what arises without fear?

When "Ted" (not his real name), who ranches in Southern Alberta, was in his early 50s, he was feeling cornered by external circumstances of all kinds. He couldn't make a decision about the ranch. He said if he had two things to do on a given day, he couldn't figure out which to do first.
He started feeling paranoid, as though the government, the oil companies with leases on his land, even the feed salesman, were out to get him.
Ted went on an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor — a new family of anti-depressants that includes Prozac and Zoloft) and said he felt mentally sharper than he had in years. I have several other friends my age who also went on anti-depressants for a year or two in their early 50s, and found it very helpful.
When I was in the midst of andropause (often incorrectly called male menopause) a few years ago, I went through about five years of mild depression, too. I didn't realize what it was at first. I thought I was just feeling kind of punk, was more irritable than I used to be and had lost interest in my favorite activities.
I thought if I could find a new passion, I would feel fine. My wife Elizabeth, who is a psychologist, helped me identify it as mild depression. I've since discovered depression is common among middle-age men, and it can have serious consequences.
Robert Goldney of Adelaide University is an international expert on suicide. In his private practice as a psychiatrist, he treats plenty of middle-age men.
"It may sound simplistic, crass even," he says, "but this is the reality of it — depression, depression, depression. If you could get rid of all depression, you could eliminate 50% of suicides," he says.
Goldney says part of the problem is that men, ages 25 to 65, generally don't talk about their depression. They don't turn to a doctor or a counselor for help.
I didn't want to go on an anti-depressant; I felt what I was going through a normal part of life and it would pass. Eventually it did, and I'm still not sure whether an anti-depressant would have been a better choice than toughing it out. Had I been seriously depressed (as in when you can barely get out of bed in the morning), I would definitely have gone on a medication.
Statistics say women are twice as likely as men to suffer from depression. That may not be true, as men are much harder to diagnose. Women tend to look inward when something is wrong (what could be wrong with me?), while men tend to look outward (what is wrong with my wife, the neighbors, the government, the world…?).
Diagnosing depression
Because of that common attitude by men, I've read it can take up to three different doctors and 10 years for a depressed man to be properly diagnosed. Men often deny depression is possible (many men see depression as a sign of weakness), and believe things would improve if other people in their lives just treated them right.
If you're worried about being depressed, here are typical symptoms:
· A depressed mood for most of the day, every day.
· Mood swings — one minute high, next minute low.
· Lack of energy, loss of interest in life.
· Irritability and restlessness.
· Disturbed sleep patterns — sleeping too much or too little.
· Significant weight loss or gain.
· Feelings of worthlessness and guilt.
· Difficulty concentrating or thinking clearly.
· Loss of sex drive.
· Thoughts about death or suicide.
If you discover you're depressed, see your doctor. Keep your wife in the loop about how you are feeling, too. It can make a big difference in your relationship.

With an all too familiar feeling, Portugal secured yet another third place at the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup – as they did in both 2008 and 2009 - after beating El Salvador 3-2.
The Portuguese had completely outclassed the Central Americans in the group stages of Ravenna 2011, running out 11-2 winners, but it was a much tighter affair at Stadio del Mare today.
Many El Salvador fans were in attendance and their team got off to a strong start, taking an early lead through Wilber Alvarado's left-footed strike. The advantage lasted four minutes, before goalscoring machine Madjer levelled with a typically powerful blast.
Roles were reversed in the second period as Portugal took their turn to go in front, Belchior converting a penalty kick. Again the game was tied four minutes later, when El Salvador's Frank Velasquez finished a free-kick.
Highly motivated as El Salvador were, Portuguese class won out in the final period. Madjer ended a wonderful tournament for him personally with a chip over the goalkeeper just 19 seconds after the restart. The only blemish on an enjoyable encounter was a late red card for Portugal's Marinho after a heavy tackle.
Despite the defeat, El Salvador were treated to the adulation of their supporters after the final whistle, capping a memorable tournament. Portugal were left pleased, if a little frustrated, with third place.
