Heather Shi
A Shoreline couple grows their family at The Childbirth Center.
"Now what?"
That question comes up a lot for parents expecting their first baby; it was no different for Shoreline residents Heather, 31, and Johnny Shi when they were expecting their first child.
Meridian Women's Health obstetrician Dr. Carol Salerno answered simply.
"Well, we'll make you an appointment for once a month, then in the third trimester you come in once a week, and then we'll deliver your baby."
Heather remembers asking if the labor would hurt, and Dr. Salerno's matter-of-fact reply.
"She gave it to me straight," Heather says. "There was something reassuring about that honesty. I knew I had found the right doctor."
Heather and Johnny are your typical, everyday couple. They have two beautiful children. Two-year-old Riley and two-month-old Logan take up a lot of space in the family's north end home. Toys are stacked high behind the bassinet where Logan naps. Riley is enthralled by a cartoon, but loses focus at the sound of Johnny's motorcycle humming up the driveway. She hops off the couch, skirts the ottoman and pads to the front door — she does this quietly, conscious of not waking her brother.
The quiet doesn't last long. Dad is home and Riley is hanging all over him, somehow managing to do a modified Stairmaster climb using his hands as pedals and his head as a perch. Before shifting his attention to Logan, Johnny, 38, sets Riley up with a few crayons.
Johnny says the most important part about choosing an obstetrician is personality, something he says Dr. Salerno has in droves.
"We wanted someone Heather was comfortable with and that we could be ourselves with," he explains. "There are tons of obstetricians in the area and the skill level is going to be very good. What we needed was a doctor who 'got' us. Dr. Salerno did."
But the couple says it wasn't just the doctor. Something stood out about Meridian Women's Health and Northwest Hospital's Childbirth Center. At a routine appointment in the third trimester of her first pregnancy, Heather began to feel severe back pain – so much pain that Dr. Salerno decided to send her to the hospital. Heather could barely stand, let alone drive. It was almost 5 p.m. and the office was about to close.
"One of the nurses drove me in my car over to the Childbirth Center and wheeled me right in," she says. "They got me comfortable in a bed and began monitoring me." Though Heather felt like she had gone into labor, she was actually passing a kidney stone. She gave birth to Riley a week later. Heather jokes that it was like giving birth twice in one week.
Whether a first-time or veteran mom, the hospital's childbirth team works with mothers to carry out the birth plan they have designed with their partner and obstetrician. Mothers and babies are monitored with wireless, waterproof technology, meaning laboring moms can walk around freely, use birth balls and enjoy some relief from the intensity of labor in one of the center's Jacuzzi tubs.
Close monitoring was important near the end of Heather's second pregnancy when she noticed Logan's movements begin to slow. Dr. Salerno immediately sent her to the Childbirth Center for observation.
"We were there within the hour and the staff was already waiting for us. They knew our name and were ready," Johnny says. "Everything was so organized…"
"…And connected," Heather finishes. "Northwest Hospital and Dr. Salerno's office work together. I was nervous. The first seven months had been perfect and now to have something go wrong…Dr. Salerno was right there for us the entire time."
Once hooked up to the wireless monitor, Logan started moving again. Dr. Salerno takes every precaution when taking care of her patients. That focused care is even more important for parents with more complex pregnancies. Many of these couples spend time at the Childbirth Center long before their labor begins. They get to know the team of caregivers and the caregivers get to know them.
"The center is equipped with all the advanced technologies and safety measures a larger hospital would have but in a more intimate setting," Dr. Salerno explains.
The nurses are particularly integral to the birth experience. During their first pregnancy, Heather and Johnny got to know their nurse Kelsey. They call her a "fantastic sixth man."
"She was awesome," they say in unison.
"For the second delivery, we tried to work out the birthing dream team Dr. Salerno and Kelsey and us, of course," Johnny jokes. "There was a scheduling conflict, so our nurse was Jennifer."
For the second pregnancy, the two skipped pregnancy preparation classes. They say Jennifer's cheerleading helped. When they needed prompts, Jennifer coached. When Johnny needed an alarm clock, Jennifer woke him in time for the delivery. And when the couple wanted to go it alone, Jennifer allowed them to share the moment together.
"We forgot the breathing thing, when to give her ice chips, when to rub her back," Johnny says, motioning to Heather who is soothing a restless Logan. "Jennifer was able to prompt us, but not take over the moment."
From labor to post-partum care, every aspect of Heather's care was seamlessly coordinated. During the labor, her contractions escalated quickly. Within 20 minutes, her pain jumped from a two to a 10. The anesthesiologist arrived within 10 minutes, administered the epidural and stayed until he was sure she was comfortable.
"You always hear the stories about a 36-hour labor or something going wrong, but the majority of pregnancies and births are just like Heather's and Johnny's," Dr. Salerno says. "They are a healthy, happy couple. They asked the right questions. They were excited and they had normal, safe pregnancies and healthy, beautiful babies."
Parenting is hard work but the two say the rewards are immeasurable. When Riley and Logan were born, the couple says their hearts skipped a beat. That feeling hasn't changed. One thing that has changed, though, is Johnny's opinion of Northwest Hospital. His relationship with the hospital began when he was born at the Childbirth Center. So were his nieces and nephews, and later, his parents received care at the hospital, too.
"I didn't really know how much I appreciated it until they were helping us give birth to our children," he says.
Northwest Hospital offers women an array of services including pregnancy, birth and after-birth care, as well as routine gynecologic care. The hospital's talented providers are board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology. They listen and collaborate with women and their families, blending advanced medical care with personal contact.

About FERC Office of the Secretary (OSEC)
Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary
In March of 2007, Kimberly D. Bose was named Secretary of the Commission. Since becoming Secretary, Kimberly has led the effort to streamline procedures within the Secretary's area. Recently, Kimberly implemented a new process to consolidate individual Gas Industry Filing notices into what is now called the Gas Combined Notice saving the Commission more than $200,000 a year in Federal Register publishing fees. This new process has also drastically reduced the time involved in preparing Gas Industry filings and providing public notice. Kimberly also led the effort to upgrade two major automation systems, Virtual Agenda and Public Issuance Workflow, which are critical to facilitating the Commission Agenda and Issuance processes. These upgrades immediately reduced user processing times and improved data accuracy for the Commission's reporting needs. Kimberly was also instrumental in initiating efforts to increase the number of filing types that could be made electronically. Accordingly, the system was expanded to increase the document types eligible for eFiling and the type, number and size of files that can be uploaded into the Commission's electronic system. These enhancements resulted in a 37% increase in the number of efilings received in 2008 and a 22% increase in 2009.
Prior to becoming the Secretary, Kimberly held the position of managing attorney in the Office of the General Counsel, Energy Markets Division where she provided full legal advisory counsel concerning the Commission's regulatory responsibilities relating to electric rate regulation. As managing attorney, she was actively involved in the development of policy concerning Incentive Rate Pricing and Merger Policy. Kimberly received her law degree from Howard University School of Law in Washington, D.C. and has a B.S. from Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia.

Bill pushes equal pay for women
HARTFORD -- A male health care worker in Connecticut on average earns almost twice as much as a woman performing the same job.
A male working in finance earns 61 percent more than a woman with the same position.
Despite passage of the national Equal Pay Act a half century ago, women in Connecticut who work the same job as a man continue to earn less -- on average 77 cents for every dollar earned by a man.
The wage gap costs female high school graduates $700,000 during their careers, college graduates $1.2 million and professional school graduates $2 million, according to the state Permanent Commission on the Status of Woman.
"We have made progress but the problem continues," said Toni Moran, commission chairwoman.
"In some instances women with college degrees earn less than men with no degree," she said.
Moran was joined by U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn, on Tuesday during a round table about the gender pay gap and the Paycheck Fairness Act of 2014, which is stalled in Congress.
The bill, supported by all of Connecticut's Democratic congressional delegation, would prohibit employers from retaliating against workers who complain about pay inequity and allow the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to impose penalties to enforce equal pay.
The act would also prevent employers from using almost any reason to pay women less, enhance remedies available to discrimination victims, improve training and education so workers can take action, and extends class-action protections.
Blumenthal said there is majority support in Congress for the bill, but the Senate has not been able to muster 60 votes needed to break a filibuster.
Meanwhile, the Republican House leadership is refusing to put the bill up for a vote, he said. The only solution, Blumenthal said, is pressure.
"When shamed into allowing a vote, they will let it happen," he said of the GOP leadership. "I'm here to mobilize and galvanize support."
"The Equal Pay Act of 1963 made progress, but nowhere near enough," Blumenthal said.
Christine Palm, commission communications director, said despite studies and data that prove there is a wage gap in Connecticut and nationally, she continues to hear excuses.
"We hear women being blamed for bringing the gap on themselves by going into low-paying professions like teaching and social work," Palm said, adding there is a gap in those fields as well.
The advocates attending the round table pledged to support the bill, although some wanted it to go further, such as forcing non-union companies to disclose wages and beefing up collective bargaining rights. They said union contracts solve the wage gap problem.
"This bill is as much nibbling around the edges as possible," said Moran, the commission chairwoman.
Blumenthal agreed, but added it's the best that can be done in the current political climate.
"We have to take it in steps. If we try to change everything, we will probably change nothing," Blumenthal said.

Rahul success was not universally enjoyed by team: Greg
Chappell wrote that despite Dravid guiding the Indian team to a number of victories, his success was not enjoyed by some of the members of the side.
"Sadly the success of the team was not universally enjoyed within the team. Some individuals felt threatened by the new world order and appeared to work against Rahul," Chappell has written in the book `Rahul Dravid – Timeless Steel`, which was launched here on Wednesday.
"Had he been given the same wholehearted support in the role that he had given others, I think the recent history of Indian cricket may have been very different and he could have gone on to become the most successful Indian captain ever," he added.
The former Australian skipper recalled how Dravid led India to nine ODI wins in a row by inserting the opposition after winning the toss, regardless of the conditions, and then went on to pilot the team to a world record of 17 consecutive wins batting second.
"To learn how to get better at chasing a target, Rahul kept asking the opposition to bat first, no matter the conditions. Under his leadership, India won nine ODIs in a row against Pakistan and England, and went on to complete a world record of 17 consecutive wins batting second."
Stating that the same approach had helped India win Test matches abroad as well, Chappell wrote, "A similar approach to Test cricket brought about India`s first overseas victory in the West Indies for 35 years and a first-ever Test victory in South Africa, which could have been turned into a series win if the team had batted better in the second innings in the final Test in Cape Town."
Chappell`s reference is to India`s Test series victory (1-0 in the four-match series) in the Caribbean in 2006 followed by its maiden win in Johannesburg`s opening Test of the 2006-07 series, before Dravid`s team lost the next two games and the rubber to the Proteas.
Chappell, who had a wonderful rapport during his tenure as coach with the Bangalorean in sharp contrast to his stormy relationship with skipper Sourav Ganguly, has written he was fond of Dravid. "Men don`t say these things, but I have a genuine affection for Rahul Dravid," Chappell has said in the book published by the Walt Disney Company (India) Pvt Ltd.
Stating that Dravid gave everything he had on the cricket field, Chappell has written that world`s second highest scorer in Test cricket was a much better captain than he would ever be credited with.
"He was an excellent deputy, in that he gave whole-hearted support without ever thinking he might be better than the incumbent, and when he got the job he was a much better captain than he will ever be credited with," Chappell has written.
Praising the former India no. 3 further, Chappell has stated in his article that Dravid never took rash decisions as a player or uttered ill-advised words on or off the field.
Recalling an incident during a Test match against Sri Lanka at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi, Chappell has observed how Dravid`s constant search for improving himself as a batsman had helped him tackle the island nation`s spin wizard Muttiah Muralitharan in the second innings, after being dismissed cheaply in the first.
"Muralitharan took seven for 100 in the first innings, in which Sachin Tendulkar made a patient century. Rahul was one of many who had found scoring runs against Muralitharan in the first innings," Chappell has written.
Saying how Dravid sought out his advice on how to tackle the prodigious off spin of Murali, Chappell has recalled how the batsman was not satisfied with his words that he (Dravid) could not have done better. "He wouldn`t accept that as an answer and insisted I do better, so I said that he had to look for scoring opportunities off every ball, no matter how hard it was."
Taking the cue, Dravid batted positively and made a fluent 53 in the second essay before being run out, Chappell has written. "Batting for survival against Murali in those conditions, I said, was not an option. Even if you succeeded in surviving you wouldn`t make any runs, so the game would be lost anyway," Chappell has recalled of having told Dravid during that night`s dinner.
"When one thinks of survival, the feet do not move well, which means the scoring opportunities will be missed. This, I said, is a sure way to boost the bowler`s confidence. The best way to build your own confidence and dent that of the bowler is to score off every poor ball he bowls and some of his good ones.
"The only way to do that, I said, was to look to make the "danger zone" (the area a metre or so in front of a good stride forward) as small as possible by scoring from any delivery pitched marginally full there or short of it," Chappell has written.
Recalling he had been asked to elaborate by Dravid, Chappell has said he had advised the stalwart to be positive in intent which, he (Chappell) felt, "would actually give oneself a better chance of defending against the good balls."
"Rahul became excited by the prospect of batting in the second innings and was quick to ask me to throw some balls to him on the outfield the next morning so that he could practise the mindset that we had discussed. That he went out and scored a fluent 53 (run out) that day was more about his ability to interpret my suggestion than the suggestion itself," Chappell has written.
Saying it needed some boldness to alter the way he batted in the middle of a Test, Chappell has declared "it was that sort of courage that made him the player he was".
"The same courage and belief made him a good captain. His propensity to think things through may have meant that he was always going to appear conservative tactically, but going by that would be to underestimate his ability to take calculated risks," Chappell has added in praise of Dravid`s leadership style.

Yesterday's marketing post had a few bugs in it. The AVC user base did a lot of bug reporting in the comments and if you have an hour or more, you should read through the entire thread at the end of the post.
The first and most important bug is that I dissed the marketing profession at the start and again at the end of the post. Seth Godin says I conflated marketing and advertising. I don't totally agree. I simply disrepected marketing and then went on to talk about how to do marketing. Not a great way to have a rational conversation about marketing.
The second important bug is that my advice holds mostly for the kinds of companies we seek to invest in. I did a decent job of explaining that in the post but I could have done a better job of it. We seek to invest in large networks of engaged users on the wired and mobile web. This largely means big breakout companies in the free consumer web. It does not mean ecommerce, saas, enterprise, or plumbers (as one commenter pointed out).
The third important bug is I gave a bunch of advice in an area I don't have a lot of operational experience in. I've never been a marketer nor do I ever want to be a marketer. But I have seen what has worked well for our best performing companies. I should have been more clear that I was sharing what I've seen work for our portfolio instead of giving broad marketing advice.
There are a host of other smaller bugs and you'll see me reacting to them in the comment thread.
I'll end this bug report by saying that I still think the kinds of companies we want to invest in do not need to have marketing budgets at the startup phase. And I'll also say that I have seen "marketing professionals" do a lot of damage to our portfolio companies over the years. Most of the damage has come from outsourced marketing relationships with agencies who charge too much and help too little. But I will also say that marketing hires in our companies have had the lowest succcess rate of any hire and there are many so called experts who have turned out to be bad and expensive hires.
I'm angry at the marketing profession for these transgressions over the years and it spilled out into my post. I'm not proud of that but it is what it is. The post stands as written with all of its bugs and an awesome comment thread at the end.

This is really nice! :)
.. / .-.. --- ...- . / .- -.. ...- . .-. - .. ... .. -. --.
Lol. I can't help myself, I'm laughing. Not because it's funny, but only because it's so ooooold. When I started in advertising, a long time ago, it was already a tired trick to mix two things/two different universes like they did (movie theater seats in a bar, or beers sold like ice cream and sweets in a cinema), or to use a visual analogy like they did here in their first ad (a beer shown like if it were pop corn...). Been done and done and done.
I'm sorry you feel that way. Have you ever posted any work?
Yes I have, James. I've been working in advertising for quite a long time and I have won a lot of awards (at Cannes, D&AD, Clios, One Show, Eurobest, Andys, NY ADC and so on). I'm not a rookie. That's why I can tell you that your campaign is not fresh. I'm sorry but it's true. Work harder and improve your ad culture, I'll be glad to congratulate you next time.
I agree that the visual pun is a tired formula.
I think it's cool
Awsm....best of the three

If you're truly savvy about where you spend your money, you'll call it future late-night cable movie viewing.
In Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance we catch up to Johnny Blaze (Nic Cage) many years after the events of the first film. "The Rider" has apparently grown into an all-consuming force of nature that Blaze desperately tries to hold in check; until the presence of evil inevitably sets The Rider loose again, to feed on the souls of the guilty.
The Rider is presented with a full buffet of evildoers when a group of ruthless mercenaries storm a church in pursuit of a young boy named Danny Ketch (Fergus Riordan), who The Devil (Ciarán Hinds) intends to use as his human vessel. Blaze claims that The Rider is no savior, but when warrior monk Moreau (Idris Elba) promises to lift the curse from his soul as reward for saving Danny, The Ghost Rider is given new purpose, and an opportunity to be more than just a demon in the night.
I can best sum up Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance with a quote that a fellow audience member spoke as the end credits rolled: "This one makes the first one look real good." There were plenty of people who disliked director Mark Steven Johnson's somewhat tame adaptation of the Marvel Knights superhero - but Johnson at least made a fully-formed and structured cinematic tale. The same cannot be said for Crank directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor.
Spirit of Vengeance plays like an extreme sports video dressed as a superhero spoof. While the directing duo indeed create some impressive shots with their daredevil shooting style, those individual shots do not translate into impressive sequences, and on the whole, a lot of the action in the film isn't even all that impressive. [Note: if you've seen the Ghost Rider 2 trailers, you've already seen everything this film has to offer.] When things aren't rip-roaring at an ADD pace (which is almost never), the camera work looks about on par with what you would expect from an extreme sports video shot on handheld cameras - i.e., on the amateur side and never really "cinematic."
With a list of screenwriters that includes Batman Begins and Dark Knight story man David S. Goyer, alongside TV writers Seth Hoffman (Prison Break, FlashForward) and Scott M. Gimple (The Walking Dead), one would expect that Spirit of Vengeance would at least offer some sweet action, thrills and a touch of compelling drama. Instead, what we get is one long chase sequence disguised as a story, punctuated by terrible dialogue and scene after scene where it feels like the actors improvised everything, rather than working from any kind of script.
To give an example: in one scene Blaze and Danny's mother, Nadya (Violante Placido), interrogate a bad guy, and what we're treated to is a "Crazy Nic Cage" homage, with Cage going on a manic tirade in his signature high pitched squeal, complete with cheap CGI conflation between his human and Ghost Rider faces. A joy to watch on YouTube, sure, but a waste of screen time when you've paid a high price for an entertaining 3D superhero flick. The treatment of the Rider is even worse, as Neveldine and Taylor leave the comic book source material behind, in favor of a Ghost Rider who is best described as being Michael Myers with a flaming head (i.e., a robotic killing machine).
Speaking of 3D: there are some nice moments for the format, but most of them involve 'in your face' antics like The Rider spitting back a stream of bullets, wreaking fiery havoc, or yes, pissing flames. The rest of the time, the format - combined with the directors' frenetic shooting style - is more headache than enhancement. There are some animated segments throughout the film that offer some nice Gothic artistry, but they are spliced rather awkwardly with the live action.
The film offers almost no character development to speak of, and instead relishes in creating a handful of offbeat characters. Nic Cage is almost to the point of self-parody with his oddball screen persona; Idris Elba (usually a strong performer in any role) is resigned to stumbling around playing an overly happy cat-eyed drunken warrior (who does very little ass-kicking); and Ciarán Hinds is wasted (and confusing) in his portrayal of The Devil, who sounds like the only Texan in Romania. Christopher Lambert even has a brief appearance in the film... but still manages to look equally as ridiculous as his co-stars.
Johnny Whitworth channels all of his inner dirtbag to play the head mercenary who is transformed into iconic Ghost Rider villain, Blackout. The villain has some cool powers (creating localized eclipses and rotting living things), but the amateurish direction makes those powers come off as... well, amateurish in execution. Violante Placido tries to give her tortured mother character some depth and dramatic resonance, but whatever success her efforts yield feel wholly out of place in this film, which does not seem to be taking one iota of this character, story or mythos seriously, even for a second.
On the whole, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance plays like a film made by two directors mistakenly lifted out of their small niche lane of filmmaking, who don't care all that much about the character, the source material, story - or really anything besides satisfying their own crude humor and action junkie impulses. Neveldine and Taylor deserve a bit of credit for at least trying something different - but ultimately, the material simply does not mesh with their filmmaking style.
Call it a failed experiment, call it the next Punisher: War Zone - and if you're truly savvy about where you spend your money, you'll call it future late-night cable movie viewing.
Here's the trailer for Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (which just might be enough):
[poll id="277"]
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of action and violence, some disturbing images, and language. Now playing in 2D and 3D theaters.

Activists' Coalition Protest Paulson's $700 BN Wall Street Bailout
Where is the "personal responsibility" for the rich? Why is democracy and freedom confused with the free market when we talk about the poor but the rich get State-sponsored corporate bail outs and tax breaks?
[Comment: Election 2008]
When poor and homeless people ask the government for help, they're told that low-income housing and living wage jobs are not a government priority because this country is built on "personal responsibility"and people need to "make better decisions."
When giant banking corporations are on the brink of total collapse because they have made a systematic series of bad business decisions -because they can- the government gives them a trillion dollars.
The Administration even wants to include multi-million dollar "golden parachutes" for the corporate executives who made those bad decisions.
When a homeless mother and her children seek shelter from the City and are turned away because "they have other housing resources" but have to sleep in the emergency room at Lincoln Hospital because they really don't, the City and the media paint her as abusing the systemand their tough stance is spun as encouraging self-sufficiency.
Where is the "personal responsibility" for the rich? Why is democracy and freedom confused with the free market when we talk about the poor but the rich get State-sponsored corporate bail outs and tax breaks?
Why is it that when we demand healthcare, education, housing, and real jobs, the government is too cash-strapped to help out - but they've got trillions of dollars for unjust wars and corporate communism?
On Thursday, September 25, at 4pm, "Picture the Homeless" will be joining a giant protest in the Financial District alongside what we hope to be the thousands of you reading this, against the trillion dollar buyout of the banking barons.
Meet us in the plaza at the southern end of Bowling Green Park, which is the small triangular park that has the Wall Street bull at the northern tip.

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and prepare the wings. LET'S GO!
VIKINGS/SAINTS – 8:30PM (NBC) Your 2010 NFL season kicks off with a rematch of last season's NFC title game between New Orleans and Minnesota, a thrilling game New Orleans won in overtime after the Vikings fumbled four bazillion times in regulation and Brett Favre threw a back-breaking interception with his team just barely in field goal range at the end of the fourth quarter. Favre is back for one (last?) go at another Super Bowl ring, but he has a rough start in store for him against the defending Super Bowl champs. The Saints are still just as potent as last year, only now they have the confidence of a Super Bowl win to their credit, along with a fanbase and city that are madly in love with them. Should be an enjoyable one. Performing before the game will be Taylor Swift and Dave Matthews. ANTICIPATION: HIGH!
PROJECT RUNWAY – 9:00PM (Lifetime) Lifetime is clearly holding something back from us. There has to be a reason everyone seems to despise Michael Costello. It can't be because he's merely annoying. They're ALL annoying. They hate this guy like he ran over their dog or something. I don't get it. Also, Ivy is pure evil. Not only are her clothes awful, but she's unreasonably arrogant and for some reason believes she's some kind of elite designer within the group. She may be more evil than Gretchen. And that's saying a lot. Tonight, the designers are forced to design resort attire. I smell sailor suits, people. ANTICIPATION: BEST SEASON EVER!
NIKITA – 9:00PM (CW) The CW's new drama is the third reincarnation of Luc Besson's original French thriller, "La Femme Nikita," after Bridget Fonda's remake in "Point of No Return" and the saucy Peta Wilson's USA original series. This time, it's Maggie Q who gets to play a runaway gal turned assassin by a secret government agency, only to have that agency turn against her and try to have her killed. It's the kind of storyline that never really grows old, especially when you have a smoking hot woman in the lead role. ANTICIPATION: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BRIDGET FONDA, ANYWAY?
JERSEY SHORE – 10:00PM (MTV) The gang deal with the fallout from J-Woww and Sammi's fight. And by that I mean, the gang asks producers what to do next after the producers told J-Woww and Sammi to fight. ANTICIPATION: TEAM SAMMI!
DESTINATION TRUTH – 9:00PM (SyFy – an NBC/Universal Network) The season premiere of this SyFy original show tracks down an unconfirmed carnivore at large in the African wilderness. That carnivore's name? Ted Nugent. CAT SCRATCH FEVAHHHHHHH! ANTICIPATION: NOOOOOGE!

Twitter Releases Subscriber Data for Occupy Boston Criminal Probe
Twitter lost a three-month battle to withhold the information of a user who was subpoenad for a criminal probe believed to be related to the Occupy Boston movement.
Twitter spokesman Matt Graves told The Boston Globe on Thursday that the social-networking site released user data for @pOiSAnOn, whose account is associated with the name "Guido Fawkes" and AntiSec.
On Dec. 14 the Suffolk County District Attorney issued an administrative subpoena requesting IP addresses for @pOisAnON, @OccupyBoston (ironically, not the official account of the movement), #BostonPD, and #dOxcak3 to assist in an "official criminal investigation." The request was sent days after the Boston police arrested en masse Occupy Boston protesters camped out in Dewey Square, an event which prompted Anonymous to hack into the BPD's website in February.
A spokesman for the Suffolk County D.A. told The Boston Herald it was satisfied with the information received this week.
"We are not interested in the information of a large number of people who have used those hashtags. This is an investigation into a specific criminal act, and not a political investigation," said Jake Wark, a spokesman for the Suffolk County D.A. "Once we had some meaningful dialogue with Twitter, a very clear understanding of what was requested was ironed out and that narrowed the field of information that was provided today."
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), who represented "Guy Fawkes" in court, said in a statement that the decision amounted to a violation of the First Amendment.
"We continue to believe that our client has a constitutional right to speak, and to speak anonymously; and that this administrative subpoena both exceeded the scope of the administrative subpoena statute and infringed our client's rights under the First Amendment. With the turnover of these documents any subsequent review of these issues will be moot," it stated in response to the decision.
In December, ReadWriteWeb reported that Twitter ignored the Suffolk D.A.'s request for secrecy, and forwarded the subpoena to @pOiSAnOn in accordance to Twitter's "Guidelines for Law Enforcement:"
Twitter's policy is to notify users of requests for their information prior to disclosure unless we are prohibited from doing so by statute or court order (e.g., an order under 18 U.S.C. § 2705(b)).
Twitter, like most Internet giants, is still struggling to balance user privacy with the law. In January it announced it had developed a way to filter tweets that violated countries' specific restrictions on speech, like banning pro-Nazi content in Germany and France. The news infuriated users who feared Twitter would honor takedown requests from repressive regimes.

Firefox lets you tell websites that you do not want them to track your browsing behavior. This article explains what tracking is and how to turn on the Do Not Track feature.
- See Tips to protect your online privacy for other ways to keep your browsing private.
Most major websites track their visitors' behavior and then sell or provide that information to other companies. This information can be used to show ads, products or services specifically targeted to you. Firefox has a Do Not Track feature that lets you tell every website you visit, their advertisers, and content providers that you don't want your browsing behavior tracked.
Honoring this setting is voluntary — individual websites are not required to respect it. Websites that do honor this setting should automatically stop tracking your behavior without any further action from you. Turning on this feature will not affect your ability to log in to websites nor cause Firefox to forget your private information, such as the contents of shopping carts, location information or login information.
The Do Not Track feature is turned off by default except in Private Browsing, where it is always on by default. To always use Do Not Track:
- Click the menu button and select . .
- Select the panel.
- Find the Tracking Protection section.
- Underneath Send websites a "Do Not Track" signal that you don't want to be tracked , choose the Always setting.
- Close the about:preferences page. Any changes you've made will automatically be saved.
- Click the menu button
and select
- This takes you to the Content Blocking section of your Firefox OptionsPreferences panel.
- Under Send websites a "Do Not Track" signal that you don't want to be tracked, choose Always.
- Close the about:preferences page. Any changes you've made will automatically be saved.

If I understand what the OP has done... it "shouldn't" work!
Star topology: The 1-Wire bus is split at or near the master end and extends in multiple branches of varying lengths. There are slave devices along, or at the ends of, the branches. ... When different topologies are intermixed, it becomes much more difficult to determine the effective limitations for the network. As a rule, the designer should apply the most conservative of the criteria in these cases.
Precautions with Star TopologiesTesting has shown that unswitched star-type network topologies (i.e., those with several branches diverging at the master) are the most difficult to make reliable. The junction of various branches presents highly mismatched impedances; reflections from the end of one branch can travel distances equal to nearly the weight of the network (rather than the radius) and cause data errors. For this reason, the unswitched star topology is not recommended, and no guarantees can be made about its performance.

IFC 050 signal converter: First in basic applications
- Designed to fit in any basic water or wastewater application
- Use with OPTIFLUX and WATERFLUX series of electromagnetic flow sensors
- Multiple communication options: 4...20 mA HART, active pulse output and RS485 Modbus
KROHNE introduces the new IFC 050 signal converter for electromagnetic flowmeters. Developed for the growing water markets worldwide, IFC 050 is designed to fit in any basic water or wastewater application.
IFC 050 can be combined with OPTIFLUX and WATERFLUX series of electromagnetic flow sensors. Together with OPTIFLUX 1000, 2000 and WATERFLUX 3000 sensors, it can be used for raw water, potable water, wastewater and seawater, e.g. in water harvesting and purifications plants, sewage or desalination plants. In addition, its features match metering or leak detection in water distribution networks, agriculture or utility applications such as as sprinkler/ irrigation, cooling or fire-fighting systems.
To suit the requirements of these applications, IFC 050 outputs reach from 4...20 mA HART, an active pulse output for driving e.g. an electromechanical counter up to an RS485 Modbus output for communication with microcontrollers and PLC`s. As an option, the signal converter can be equipped with all three outputs.
IFC 050 features a sturdy and robust construction: the shockproof aluminum housing is finished with a protective double-layer paint that withstands salty atmospheres. Its electronics have an extra coating against condensed moisture for use in e.g. in tropical areas. For convenient operation, IFC 050 can be ordered as wall-mounted or compact version. As an alternative to the display version, the blind version is the option for applications where the menu needs to be approached only once a time and a permanent display is not required.

CHICAGO, Ill. (Dec. 19, 2013) – The Chicago Fire Soccer Club announced midfielder Freddie Braun as the winner of the Fire's sixth annual Open Tryout. Braun will join the Fire for the first phase of preseason training camp in Ave Maria, Fla. beginning Sunday, Jan. 26, 2014.
"We had a very talented pool of players at the open tryout," said Chicago Fire Head Coach and Director of Soccer Frank Yallop. "Freddie's composure on the ball and his technical ability were evident throughout the two-day process. We're looking forward to have Freddie join the first team during preseason training camp in January."

A four-year standout at the University of Louisville from 2006-09, Braun signed with the Portland Timbers on Feb. 17, 2011 and made his professional debut on May 3, 2011 in a 1-0 loss to the San Jose Earthquakes in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup.
Over the course of two seasons, Braun made three MLS Regular Season appearances for the Timbers. On March 8, 2013, Braun joined USL PRO side Orlando City SC where he appeared in 20 games, tallying two goals and one assist, as Orlando City captured the 2013 USL PRO Championship.
"Winning the open tryout is exciting," said Braun. "Chicago is close to home and is the team I've always wanted to play for. I'm really looking forward to showing the coaching staff what I can do to help the team."
The Rochester Hills, Mich. product was a member of the Chicago Fire PDL in 2009. In 14 games, Braun totaled three goals and two assists and helped the Fire to a 10-1-5 regular-season record, the Great Lakes Division Championship and that year's PDL North American Final.
Braun will look to follow in the footsteps of defender Pari Pantazopoulos, who emerged to win the club's Open Tryout in 2011 and a spot on the first team's preseason roster. The Mt. Prospect, Ill. product advanced through all three phases of the club's preseason camp to sign on as a member of the Chicago Fire.
Pantazopoulos made his first team debut on June 28, 2011 in a U.S. Open Cup match vs. the Rochester Rhinos and went on to appear in the club's midseason friendly against English giants Manchester United at Soldier Field on July 23.

John Tortorella – grow up
[media-credit name="nhl.com" align="alignright" width="280″][/media-credit]
Sorry, I can't take it anymore.
I tried to buy into the "Oh, he's just a lovable curmudgeon, he really is a great guy except for the stuff he does all the time to the media. He's just Torts" meme. And I'm done with it. That meme is getting wadded up in my hand and thrown in the garbage now.
John Tortorella's little bully act has worn tissue-paper thin by now.
Here's Classic Torts: his team wins the game, he's only too happy to sit there and sniff his fumes for a few minutes, talking about what a great job his band of heroes did.
A loss? 1 minute, 14 seconds of petulance, as was the case after his Rangers blew a 2-1 lead and lost Game 2 to the Devils in the Eastern Conference finals.
Hey, I'm talking to you now, my media brethren: just boycott his tired act. Quit sitting there being played for the fool by this jerk already. Yeah, I called him a jerk. So what? He calls us in the media that stuff every day. Quit sitting around and taking it.
There is not one single thing that the media has done to earn Torts' Little Lord Fauntleroy routine like this.
Hey Torts: the media doesn't really give a damn whether your team won or lost. They just want to get your take on why the game happened the way it did. That's all. We seriously are not out there trying to put little boobytraps into this little adolescent fantasy world you've got built up. Most of us have more important real-life things to worry about.
Grow up. The coaches who came before you, who at least had the decency to look their fellow man in the eye and answer a question without some little roll-of-the-eyes farce, would be ashamed of you right now.
Yeah, I know this is part of your schtick. You'll say a guy like me is overreacting to what you believe is a nothingness moment. Except, you're the one who puts on the big, poor little Hamlet routine every time your heroes lose a game and you are asked to account for it.
You're big on saying the players are accountable, always. But when it comes to you sitting at the mic and being accountable? You're not there. You take your ball and run home. Well here's my contingent of the media who has the guts to tell you: sit in your coach's room instead of coming out to be accountable to the media. Talk it over with your sock puppets in the coaches' room instead. Yeah, "keep it in the room."
At times, I've found his act amusing. But enough's enough. It's just old.
Save us the whiny petulance. Some of us have little kids at home to get that from. But, at least in my case, my kid is 8.
What's your excuse, Torts?
Here, watch Torts' latest Fauntleroy routine here. You be the judge:

A trio of Dolphins talking points with training camp set to start in three days:
1. Does Matt Moore deserve a little benefit of the doubt in the QB race?
Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said at the NFL owners' meetings in March, before the team had drafted Ryan Tannehill in the first round, that incumbent quarterback Matt Moore doesn't have any sort of advantage over newcomer David Garrard in the competition for the starting job.
"I told David, my only obligation to Matt Moore is he's a member of the 2012 Dolphins," Philbin said at the time. "He's under contract, he played well last year and he deserves an opportunity to compete for a starting job, just like David does."
Sure enough, throughout much of the offseason practices from April to June, there has been a lot of buzz – the kind of unsourced buzz that makes its way around talk radio and the interwebs – that Garrard has outplayed Moore. On top of that, agent Drew Rosenhaus said Sunday night on 7 Sports Xtra that he expects Garrard to open camp on Friday with the First Team offense, ahead of Moore. And Rosenhaus certainly hears what's going on – he currently represents nine players on the Dolphins, including three wide receivers.
But has Garrard really leapfrogged Moore in the quarterback race just based off of his performance in May and June? Does Moore's 2011 season with the Dolphins mean nothing? And if Moore and Garrard are about even after four weeks of training camp, does Moore not deserve any benefit of the doubt based on his incumbent status?
Don't forget, owner Stephen Ross did let it slip in May that Moore "will probably be the starter." And in Reggie Bush's mind, Moore is still ahead of Garrard, at least for now.
"I know Matt Moore is maybe the leader right now, because he's the returning starting quarterback from last year," Bush said Monday at his youth football camp he co-hosted with Jason Taylor. When asked if last year's performance will factor into Philbin's decision at quarterback, Bush said, "I'm sure it's going to have something to do with it."
No offense to Garrard, who may indeed be a better fit for the quick-passing offense being installed, but Dolphins fans seem quick to forget how good Moore was in the second half of 2011 (although he would be the first to admit that he needs to cut down – a lot – on his 13 fumbles from last year):
* Moore helped the team finish 6-3 to close out the season after starting 0-7, including wins over Kansas City, the Jets, Oakland and two over Buffalo.
* He finished a respectable 12th in NFL passer rating (87.1, ahead of Jay Cutler, Michael Vick, Cam Newton and Carson Palmer) despite not getting any reps with the first team offense (even in preseason) until subbing for Chad Henne in the second quarter of Week 4.
* The Dolphins offense averaged 24.67 points over their last nine games (15.29 points their first seven games).
* Moore had three quarterback ratings over 122.0 and four more over 85.0, plus two of the highest QBR performances of the season, against Kansas City and Buffalo.
Taylor said that no matter how well Garrard played this spring, the offseason workouts mean little in the grand scheme of the QB competition.
"I hate to minimize the offseason, but it's great to look good in OTAs," Taylor, now an ESPN analyst, said Monday. "Nobody's getting hit, there's no real rush, no real coverage, no real bump and run. It's easy to look good in the OTAs. Not to take anything away from David, because he may be playing very well, but the real test starts Thursday when they get to camp."
But Taylor also doesn't believe that Moore should just be handed the job this year based off his performance last year. Moore, who will be 28 next month, has been successful in spurts in his five NFL seasons, but never in consecutive years.
"I think competition breeds excellence, and it makes people work harder and pay more attention and focus more," Taylor said. "This league is about winning right now, and whoever gives you the best opportunity to win, you have to pick those guys."
2. QB competition has a chance to be divisive.
Philbin has already stated that he would like to pick his starting quarterback before the third preseason game, which means he has 3-4 weeks to evaluate the three players and make a decision.
Philbin better hope for one of the quarterbacks to clearly establish himself, because otherwise the competition could become fodder for debate not just on talk radio, but also in his own locker room.
Already there is buzz that some of the receivers like the way Garrard, a career 85.8 passer and one-time Pro Bowler, runs the new West Coast Offense. And some of the players, especially some of the holdovers from last year's team, will probably stand by Moore based on what he did for the team in the second half of 2011. If Moore and Garrard perform similarly during training camp, Philbin's decision could upset some players in the locker room.
Taylor doesn't seem too worried about a quarterback competition tearing the locker room apart.
"I don't think they have the overly strong personalities that are going to gripe and moan about the ball," Taylor said of the receivers.
But it sure would make Philbin's life easier if one of the quarterbacks clearly stands out above the others.
3. Brian Hartline picks his sleeper WRs.
One of the hot topics entering training camp is, Who exactly will catch the football at wide receiver this year? We know Brian Hartline and Davone Bess will be part of the offense, but otherwise there are 10 players fighting for four or five more spots – Chad Johnson, Legedu Naanee, Clyde Gates, Roberto Wallace, Marlon Moore, Julius Pruitt, Chris Hogan, B.J. Cunningham, Rishard Matthews and Jeff Fuller.
This morning, a reader asked me on Twitter if I think Pruitt will make the roster, and I answered that if the Dolphins keep six receivers (a distinct possibility), I like Johnson (Ochocinco), Naanee, Wallace and Pruitt.
Johnson and Naanee give the Dolphins the veteran experience they desperately need at the position, Wallace is playing well and has the best size/athleticism combo of the bunch at 6-4, 225 pounds, and Pruitt is a demon on special teams, excelling in all six phases. Even if the Dolphins only keep five receivers, I think Pruitt and Wallace have a better chance than Naanee, who doesn't contribute as much on special teams.
Turns out, I'm not the only one who likes Wallace's and Pruitt's chances of making the 53-man roster. Hartline, speaking to season ticket holders in a conference call Monday evening, singled out Pruitt and Wallace as his sleepers.
"Julius is really putting the work in and he's doing a phenomenal job," Hartline said. "Breakout and some superstar Victor Cruz kind of thing? No, that's not what I see happening. But he's doing a great job, he's really honing his role and really doing it to the best of his ability."
Hartline also added, "I think Roberto is doing a great job as well in the wide receiver room."
And he said Pruitt should once again expect to have a big impact on special teams.
"I hate to put guys in a box and say he's not going to start or anything like that," Hartline said. "But I mean, he's definitely going to make a huge impact on the special teams."

He could sing, dance, act, and direct--and he could do these all well. Gene Kelly majored in economics in college and went on to law school, but his love for movement and dance sent him to New York on a search for his destiny. He had hoped to find a job as a choreographer, but show business had different plans for this talented performer.
Kelly made his debut in the musical,Leave It to Me in 1938, but didn't hit super stardom until he starred in Pal Joey on Broadway. This hit sent Kelly into the movie business. He made his film debut in For Me and My Gal with Judy Garland, in 1942. Soon, Kelly's career in show business couldn't be stopped. He continued to star in such films as, DuBarry Was a Lady, Thousands Cheer, Cover Girl, Words and Music, and The Three Musketeers. He also went on to choreograph the movies in which he starred, such as, Take Me Out to the Ball Game, Brigadoon, Anchors Away, and An American in Paris.
Kelly wanted to show audiences a connection between dancing and athletics, a premise on which he based his own style. He got a chance to do just that when he co-directed and starred in On the Town, Singin' In the Rain, which he also choreographed, and It's Always Fair Weather. He also starred in Les Girls, Marjorie Morningstar, Inherit the Wind, What a Way to Go, Forty Carats, and Xanadu. Kelly continued to direct in Hello, Dolly!, Gigot, Tunnel of Love, The Cheyenne Social Club, and A Guide for the Married Man. He also directed a Broadway musical, Flower Drum Song.
Kelly always enjoyed experimenting with the incorporation of dance and film, an interest aptly exemplified in Invitation to the Dance. He directed, choreographed, and starred in this film involving the telling of three stories only by means of dance. The first is a classical ballet, the second a modern ballet based on Schnitzler's "Reigen," and the third a modern dance based on "Aladdin" and "Sinbad," in which living dancers mingle with cartoons.
The first American to be invited to choreograph and stage an original ballet at the Paris Opera, Kelly presented a ballet danced to Gershwin's Concerto in F. The performance received 27 curtain calls on its premiere night in 1960. Consequently, he was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor by the French government, and the ballet became part of the Paris Opera's repertoire. The Director of the Opera presented Kelly with the honor and exclaimed, "Until tonight, the Paris Opera was ten years behind the times in ballet. Now we are ten years ahead."
Kelly's achievements in both television and film also won him recognition. He received a Dance Magazine Award for directing and starring in "Dancing: A Man's Game," and an Emmy for his production of "Jack and the Beanstalk" in 1967. The American Film Institute awarded him in 1985 with the Life Achievement Award for his work in motion pictures. Kelly, receiving the award, said he was glad he could make people smile "by running over a couple of couches or through a rainstorm."
Also, in 1985, Kelly executive produced and narrated an anthology of dance-on-film excerpts called That's Dancing. The film features, among others, Kelly's "schoolroom" routine with Donald O'Connor from Singin' in the Rain and a sequence from Invitation to the Dance. In his later years, Kelly continued to be interested in modern, jazz, and classical dance, but he found modern-day musicals to be boring and monotonous. Kelly died in 1996 at the age of 83.

Sixteen-year-old high school junior Lexi Thompson set a record Sunday when she became the youngest golfer ever to win an LPGA tournament.
Thompson, who turned pro at age 15, fired a final-round 2-under-par 70 to cap a five-stroke victory in the Navistar LPGA Classic. She finished with a 17-under 271` on rounds of 66-68-67-70 at the Robert Trent Jones Trail's Capitol Hill complex in Prattville, Ala.
"I was just focusing on playing the golf course and do the best I could do," said Thompson, who also holds the record for being the youngest player to qualify for the U.S. Women's Open (she was 12). "I was nervous on the first tee, I won't lie. If you're not nervous, you don't care. Once I hit the first tee shot, I was like, 'All right, I'm good.' …

"It's been my dream my whole life just to play out here. Getting a win right now, I can't describe the feelings, but it's the best feeling ever."
Thompson, with her father, Scott, serving as caddy, broke age records previously held by Paula Creamer and Marlene Hagge, who were both 18 when they won tournmanents.
Thompson, who won $195,000, will not receive automatic LPGA Tour membership because of her age. Thompson would have to petition the LPGA for an exemption of its 18-year-old age requirement. The LPGA already granted her petition for qualifying school, and she won the first stage by 10 strokes in July.
"She was hitting shots where I would look at my caddie and go 'What?' She was hitting shots other girls can't hit," said Tiffany Joh, who played in the final group with Thompson and finished in second place. "It was really impressive. She's going to be great."

Community Comes Together for Campus Clean Up
On Saturday August 7th, seminarians, children, spouses, faculty and staff worked together on a campus clean up. The clean-up part of a very hot day began at 9 a.m. outside the North Dorm where a crowd gathered to collect tools and receive instructions.
The first task was laying new mulch in the playground. Everyone was involved. Some hauled mulch in wheelbarrows. Children used their wagons. Others attacked "mulch mountains" with rakes and hoes. David Wagschal, who is joining the seminary faculty to teach Church History, showed his skills on the SVOTS tractor.
While most were working in the playground, Fr. Chad Hatfield, our Chancellor and a keen gardener, was working to tidy the flowerbeds and trees in the front of the Rangos Building. Once the playground flooring was in place, the crew moved on to tidy the shoreline alongside the Lakeside married-student apartments, collecting bags full of debris.
Some enthusiastic seminarians took garbage bags down to the base of the waterfall and collected the litter that had swept down from Central Ave. through Crestwood Lake. Our Dean, Fr. John Behr, and his family collected glass, bottles, and assorted other refuse from the Seminary's border with Scarsdale Road.
Many filled refuse bags and blistered hands later, the community happily ate vegetarian pizza together on the veranda of the Germack Building.
"I was really impressed by the commitment to the Seminary that the community showed today," said Fr. Chad. "Just about everyone on campus showed up cheerfully and worked extremely hard."
Job well done!

Best of luck to you. I will be watching closely, as I am also suffering a bit from this nonsense. If it goes well for you, I may have to take a serious look into it. By the way, I am glad it isn't real cancer. I am dealing with that, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
Good luck, keep us posted!
Not a Dr. but is that bone that is poking down that is even with R SR writing touching the other bone. Is that where the issue is?
the problem area is on the other side away from the R sr Sign. you can see a small dotattached to nothing floating
ahh that smaller light gray mass. I should show you my shoulder x-ray and MRI, stupid bone growth, impingement but been able to play through it the last few years, but was in massive pain like you for months.
IF its a BOne Spur in my elbow
Bone spur? That might be it. When will you know?
Man, oh man! That's why I can't be a doctor. lol

Basalt man asks for jail time and gets it
Vail Daily
EAGLE — A Basalt man convicted of indecent exposure asked for jail instead of probation, and a judge granted his wish Tuesday.
Joaquin Rangel was sentenced to 18 months in the Eagle County jail after he exposed himself to at least five women during two separate incidents within a seven-day period in Basalt's Old Pond Park. Prosecutors say Rangel was ordered by police not to return to the park after the first incident.
The five female witnesses say Rangel was rubbing the front of his pants, and that he pulled out his genitals and was rubbing them.
During his sentencing Rangel claimed he was urinating in the park. According to the incident report, Rangel had drunk six 24-ounce beers, some whiskey and a half gallon of bourbon.
His blood alcohol level was .204, more than twice the legal limit, yet he denied to investigators and the judge that he has a problem with alcohol.
Rangel told Eagle County Court Judge Katharine Sullivan that a male witness agreed he was urinating. The five female witnesses said, no, he was masturbating.
During Tuesday's sentencing Rangel claimed to Sullivan that the person who saw him was a drug addict. During his presentence investigation he denied he was doing anything like that, prosecutors said.
Rangel had said he wanted to return to the Roaring Fork Valley. The victims said they wanted him in jail.
Rangel told his lawyers he didn't want probation and would rather go to jail. He has already been in jail five months since his arrest.
During Tuesday's sentencing Rangel apologized to the court, saying he is a good person.
"I would like to demonstrate that there are no problems, no issues in my mind. I have never used drugs, and I never have had any problems," Rangel said.
Sullivan said that's not entirely accurate, and she read a partial list of Rangel's criminal history in Colorado: a DUI in 2008, indecent exposure in 2008, public consumption of alcohol in 2008, using a false identification in 2011, a false reporting charge in Adams County in 2012 and numerous citations for failure to appear in court on these and other charges.
When she passed sentence, Sullivan said community safety is her top priority in any case.
"It is clear you are not amenable to treatment," Sullivan said in handing down the sentence, adding that the best way to ensure community safety is to keep Rangel in jail.
