Abuse isn't just about bruises. Not all forms of abuse leave bruises where we can see them,Domestic Violence Groups in South Africa . Although physical abuse is terrifying and needs to be addressed immediately there are other forms of abuse that can cause significant damage. One type of abuse that is very difficult for outsiders to detect is financial abuse. Marriage should be a partnership but when one spouse completely dominates the finances to the point that the other spouse has no control and no options financial abuse may be occurring.
What Are Signs of Potential Financial Abuse?
Every married couple handles their finances differently. In some cases one spouse handles the majority of the finances. They manage the accounts, pay the bills and deal with creditors. That does not by itself equal financial abuse.
Financial abuse occurs when one spouse is treated like an irresponsible child and Domestic Violence Near Me . They are cut off from funds and their knowledge about the couple's finances is severely limited. Some signs of financial abuse include:
•Strict Allowances. This isn't an amount that the spouses have agreed to limit themselves to but is instead a set amount that is grudgingly handed out from one spouse to the other and is all that will be given.
Documents, documents, documents. Written evidence is incredibly strong and can range from credit card bills showing that there is a credit card but that you aren't named on it to emails from your spouse that show the financial abuse.
Other witnesses can be incredibly powerful on your behalf. Financial abuse is hard for people outside the relationship to detect. So when someone credible comes in and tells the judge that it is happening and they can see it the judge will listen and Domestic Violence Effects .
Domestic Violence Groups in South Africa ?
We're all capable of abuse when we're frustrated or hurt. We may be guilty of criticizing, judging, withholding, and controlling, but some abusers, including narcissists, take abuse to a different level. Narcissistic Abuse can be physical, mental, emotional, sexual, financial, and/or spiritual. Some types of emotional abuse are not easy to spot, including manipulation. It can include emotional blackmail, using threats and intimidation to exercise control. Narcissists are masters of verbal abuse and manipulation. They can go so far as to make you doubt your own perceptions, called gaslighting.
The Motivation for Narcissistic Abuse
Remember that narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) and abuse exist on a continuum, ranging from silence to violence. Rarely will a narcissist take responsibility for his or her behavior. Generally, they deny their actions, and augment the abuse by blaming the victim. Particularly, malignant narcissists aren't bothered by guilt. They can be sadistic and take pleasure in inflicting pain. They can be so competitive and unprincipled that they engage in anti-social behavior. Don't confuse narcissism with anti-social personality disorder.
The objective of narcissistic abuse is power. They act with the intent to diminish or even hurt other people. The most important thing to remember about intentional abuse is that it's designed to dominate you. Abusers' goals are to increase their control and authority, while creating doubt, shame, and dependency in their victims. They want to feel superior to avoid hidden feelings of inferiority. Understanding this can empower you. Like all bullies, despite their defenses of rage, arrogance, and self-inflation, they suffer from shame. Appearing weak and humiliated is their biggest fear. Knowing this, it's essential not to take personally the words and actions of an abuser. This enables you to confront narcissistic abuse.
Mistakes in Dealing with Abuse
When you forget an abuser's motives, you may naturally react in some of these ineffective ways:
1. Appeasement. If you placate to avoid conflict and anger, it empowers the abuser, who sees it as weakness and an opportunity to exert more control.
4. Set Boundaries. Boundaries are rules that govern the way you want to be treated. People will treat you the way you allow them to. You must know what your boundaries are before you can communicate them. This means getting in touch with your feelings, listening to your body, knowing your rights, and learning assertiveness. They must be explicit.
Don't hint or expect people to read your mind.
5. Have Consequences. After setting boundaries, if they're ignored, it's important to communicate and invoke consequences. These are not threats, but actions you take to protect yourself or meet your needs.
6. Be Educative. Research shows that narcissists have neurological deficits that affect their interpersonal reactions. You're best approach is to educate a narcissist like a child. Explain the impact of their behavior and provide incentives and encouragement for different behavior. This may involve communicating consequences. It requires planning what you're going to say without being emotional.
Get Support
To respond effectively requires support. Without it, you may languish in self-doubt and succumb to abusive disinformation and denigration. It's challenging to change your reactions, let alone those of anyone else. Expect pushback when you stand up for yourself. This is another reason why support is essential. You will need courage and consistency. Whether or not the narcissist makes changes, you'll get tools to protect yourself and raise your self-worth that will improve how you feel whether you stay or leave. CoDA meetings and psychotherapy provide guidance and support.
Warning: If you're experiencing physical abuse, expect it to continue or escalate. Get help immediately.

Mother In Law Abuse - What You Can Do About It
Children have that right to be loved. But there are those who suffer child abuse in the very sense of the word. Child abuse could either be physical, mental or sexual abuse to children. This might have certain adverse effects on the child so they must be given extra support and attention.
Physical abuse concerns maltreatments of children in a physical way. This means hurting the children physically, or not giving them proper nutrition. Emotional abuse or mental abuse, on the other hand, is about abuse in children which affects primarily their emotions. This includes saying hurtful words to children, as well as scolding them often that lower their self esteem. Sexual abuse, however, is abuse that concerns the sexual attributes of a child. This is one of the worst cases of child abuse.
Child Abuse Treatments
Most of the children who have experienced child abuse have traumas, especially those who were involved in sexual abuse. For cases like this, psycho therapies are being done to address the problem of the concerned child. Teaching proper parenting to children is also a program involved in treating, as well as preventing child abuse.
Child abuse is a matter that needs utmost attention since it involves the future generation of this world. This could be prevented by having family planning seminars to parents which would invoke them to take care of their children more. There are also certain organizations like UNICEF which specializes in treating such problems. Children are important part of the society, so utmost love and care should be given to them.

Fan violence marred the championship parade for French soccer league champions Paris St. Germain today.
21 people were arrested, 30 people were injured, and 800 riot police were deployed when a group of fans became unruly and started lighting flares, breaking car windows, and otherwise clashing with police, the AP reports.
Star players like David Beckham and Zlatan Ibrahimovic were shuttled to safety before the situation escalated. It was the club's first title in 19 years.
PSG has been working hard to end its reputation for hooliganism. But the stunning images from the streets of Paris today will be a stain on the club.

Three American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology members won grants from the Single Cell Analysis Program at the National Institutes of Health. Marc Kirschner at Harvard University, Peter Sims at Columbia University Health Services and Navin Varadajaran at the University of Houston were amongst the 26 recipients of awards supported by the NIH Common Fund.NIH intends to invest more than $90 million over five years to promote the development and application of single-cell analysis. SCAP's goal is to understand what makes individual cells unique and to accelerate the development of clinical therapies based on disease mechanisms at the cellular level. The program has three parts: one to support three research centers, one to create new laboratory-based single-cell technologies and one to generate clinically relevant methods."The development of new technologies that can detect differences between individual cells within the same tissue is crucial to our understanding of a wide variety of diseases," said NIH director Francis S. Collins in a press release. "This Common Fund program is an excellent example of how the NIH can accelerate the pace of biomedical discovery."Kirschner's and Sims' projects belong to the program sector that plans to support new methods for single-cell analysis. Kirschner's aim is to establish a method that can simultaneously profile more than 1,000 cells in each run of a fluorescent-activated, cell-sorting instrument. The method, largely based on existing technologies, will measure tens of proteins and 100 to 200 mRNA levels simultaneously in single cells. Sims' project will develop single-cell proteomics by creating a new technology for protein identification that combines single-molecule fluorescence microscopy and a microfabricated array platform.Varadajaran's project is among those designed to accelerate the translation of technologies from the laboratory to the clinic. Varadajaran obtained an R01 grant to study single-cell biomarkers in genetically modified T-cells. These cells are being tested in clinical trials to treat leukemia and lymphoma. Varadajaran's aim is to validate the tools for investigating how well the modified T-cells can target tumor cells and use that information to better understand their therapeutic benefits.Read the NIH press release.

Juventus boss Conte rues 'inexplicable' draw
Antonio Conte rued a lack of concentration from Juventus as they threw a two-goal lead away to draw 2-2 with Verona on Sunday.
A Carlos Tevez double had put the league leaders 2-0 ahead inside the opening 21 minutes, but they were unable to stop a spirited second-half comeback from Verona.
Luca Toni halved the deficit with a trademark header, before Juanito grabbed a point with a 94th-minute effort from a Romulo cross.
Conte was not happy with the way his side had allowed their hosts back into the game, though hopes it will force them to retain their focus for the rest of the campaign.
"It's inexplicable," he said after the disappointing draw. "Matches like these last 95 minutes, and not 45.
"It's not acceptable to be punished by two set plays, we need to be much more certain or we may nullify all the good (work) we have done so far.
"We could've done a lot, lot better. It leaves me perplexed how we could dominate the game for the first half and then end up like this.
"We concede far too many goals from dead ball situations and we've got to be focused, it's a question of concentration.
"It's a shame we drew this game against a Verona side that created few opportunities. I have to compliment them for their determination."
Juve's cushion at the top of Serie A remains five points after Roma were held to a goalless draw by fierce rivals Lazio, but Conte lamented a missed chance to extend their lead.
"Regardless of what the others did, this is a wasted opportunity," he added. "Only we could have let Verona back into the game.
"Let's learn from this and be aware the title isn't won yet. In previous years we won it with determination, aggression and strength. It won't be easy to repeat that."

Albion boss Chris Hughton says he cannot be more delighted with his side's start, after they extended their unbeaten run to 14 games this afternoon.
The Seagulls drew 1-1 away to Reading but their lead at the top of the Championship was cut to two points as both Hull and Burnley won.
On the draw, Hughton said: "For us, being the away team, I thought it was the fair result.
"In the first half, I thought we were good but it was always going to be a tough game. They've got a lof of firepower and they can certainly score a goal and you know that if you come here you've got to defend well.
"I thought, overall, on the balance of play, a draw was a fair result.
"We scored a very good goal. It was very well worked. It's always tough when you score then because the opposition have got to push.
"At the moment, I can't be more delighted than I am with the start we've had. We're still top of the division and we're in every game. There isn't a game we've played where we haven't always been in it. We're still unbeaten which, for us, is a massive achievement.
"We've had to fight and scrap for all the points that we've got. That's the league, every game is a challenge but at least we're competitive in every game."
On Reading's equaliser, where Matej Vydra tapped home the rebound after David Stockdale was unable to hold on to Nick Blackman's fierce strike, Hughton said: "You're always disappointed with every goal you concede and there are always phases of every goal you can pick out.
"If I'm looking at the ball coming off David Stockdale, before that the lad gets an opportunity to get in a shot from a central position, before that the ball gets to him and then of course the follow up.
"Anything we do is very much team related. As regards David Stockdale, he's been excellent for us and we needed him today to make a couple of good saves and his command of the penalty area was very good."
Reading manager Steve Clarke said: "Having been 1-0 down going into the last 15 minutes of the game, it becomes a decent point against a very good team.
"They're very strong defensively and don't give much away, so it showed great character from us to get back in it.
"We spoke before the game about the first goal being a crucial goal in this game. We were hoping we would get it and they got it but the response was really good."

A DELIGHTED Lizzie Deignan described her epic win in the ASDA Women's Tour de Yorkshire as "up there" with the best of her career.
The former world champion thrilled a huge crowd in Harrogate with a solo victory after pulling clear late in the race.
Deignan had also attacked last year, in the race from her home town of Otley, but was caught by the peloton before the finish in Doncaster.
This time there was no stopping the home favourite as she completed the 122.5km course in three hours, nine minutes and 36 seconds, 55 seconds ahead of runner-up Coryn Rivera, of Team Sunweb.
Wiggle High 5's Giorgia Bronzini was third in the same time.
An emotional Deignan, of the Boels Dolmans team, said: "It was incredible.
"We knew we had to make it a tough race and it pretty much went to plan tactically. We sent Amy [Pieters] up the road in a breakaway and me and Anna [van der Breggen] jumped across to her and we knew from that point we had the race in our hands.
"The whole team was fantastic."
Deignan was in an eight-strong group which broke away after the Cote de Lofthouse split the pack around 60km from the finish.
She, van der Breggen and Dani King moved ahead before the Yorkshirewoman made the decisive move with around 14kms remaining.
The 28-year-old revealed she went against orders late on.
"The chase group was coming pretty close and my director actually said wait for the sprint, you are coming back," she reported..
"I thought I no I am not going to wait for the sprint. I know the roads better than you and it's not coming back."
The race, which started in Tadcaster, captivated thousands of fans on the roadside and Deignan described the reception from spectators as "special and surreal".
She added. "I can't get my head around how many people came out to support us, it was really, really good."
Welcome to Yorkshire chief executive Sir Gary Verity said: "Lizzie did Yorkshire proud today and this will have been a hugely popular victory right across the county.
"The course made for really exciting racing and Lizzie took full advantage of it. Yorkshire people really look out for each other and the backing they gave Lizzie really spurred her on."
Deignan's triumph meant she was awarded the blue winner's jersey and she also topped the points classification, while her Boels Dolmans squad were best team.
Wiggle High5 rider Claudia Lichtenberg was awarded Queen of the Mountain after cresting the Côte de Lofthouse in first place.

The Buccaneers have added one of the top veteran placekickers available.
And he wasn't available long.
The Bucs have reached a deal with ex-Bills kicker Rian Lindell, Alex Marvez of FoxSports.com reported Tuesday night. Buffalo released the 36-year-old Lindell just one day ago, electing to go with rookie Dustin Hopkins.
The Buccaneers have had to scramble at kicker since Connor Barth suffered a season-ending Achilles tendon injury in July. The club signed former Giants kicker Lawrence Tynes to compete for the job, but he's dealing with a toe injury. If Tynes remains unavailable, Lindell and Derek Dimke will vie to handle the Bucs' extra points and field goals.
Lindell connected on 21-of-24 field goals for Buffalo in 2012. Overall, he's hit 283-of-348 field goals (81.3 percent) in regular-season play, converting 195-of-210 attempts (92.9 percent) inside of 40 yards.

Lin told New York Post writer Steve Serby today that he is in fact single and described his ideal girlfriend (via NY Mag):
First she would really love God and be a faithful Christian, and then after that, I think, a desire to serve other people, to help with the underprivileged, do a lot of social work . . . great personality and easy to be around. Someone that's definitely chill, low key, low maintenance.
Although we didn't believe a second of the Kim K—Lin rumors, now, they can be completely put to rest.

The Petrels held a 7 point lead, their largest of the game, with two minutes to play in regulation but the Colonels rallied to tie it and went on to victory in the extra session.
Oglethorpe showed excellent poise in the first half as they showed the Colonels they meant business on this Sunday afternoon. They kept the Colonels within reach the entire half by clamping down defensively and forcing a bevy of turnovers. Despite the fact that Centre drilled 6-of-12 shots from beyond the arc in the opening stanza, Oglethorpe trailed just 30-26 at the break.
The second half was incredibly compelling basketball as the score was tied five times while also changing hands four times. The Petrels took their first lead of the half on a jumper by Sarah Giles with 16:53 to play and then battled neck and neck with the Colonels for next 10 minutes of action.
The Petrels trailed by two points with less than 6 minutes to play before Sarah Jones tried to put the team on her back and guide them to victory. Jones scored a bucket to tie the score at 51 and then followed that with a three-ball to push Oglethorpe in front by three. After getting a defensive stop, Jones capped her 7 straight point outburst with a driving layup to push the Petrels ahead by five.
Oglethorpe pressed the margin all the way to 7 with 2:03 to play when Giles took a feed from Mareva Bone and scored. The Colonels rallied with a three pointer, a layup and a free throw to trim the lead down to one before Bone was fouled with 44 ticks left and the Petrels clinging to a 61-60 advantage. Bone converted the first free throw but missed the second and Centre's Chelsea Benham converted two tries from the stripe on the other end to tie the score at 62. Oglethorpe held for the last shot but Jones' three went begging to set up overtime.
The two teams traded buckets and three pointers to start the overtime session before Centre forged ahead with 1:40 left on two Maggie Prewitt free throws. Bone tied the score at 71 apiece with a bucket with 37 ticks left and Oglethorpe actually got a stop on the other end and could have held for the final shot again. Instead, the Petrels raced upcourt where Prewitt forced a steal from Jones. Prewitt then went the length of the floor, scored and got fouled with 13 seconds left to seal the game. Jones got off a possible game-tying three but the shot was off target.
Jones led three Petrels in double figures with 16 points on the afternoon. Bone posted 12 points while Giles tallied 10 and grabbed 8 rebounds. Katie Weeks finished her final game on Pinholster Court with 9 points, 5 rebounds and three steals.
The Petrels are now 8-16 on the season and will close out the 2011-12 campaign this Saturday night when they face Birmingham-Southern in Alabama.

Research and Teaching Interests: Organic synthesis for biomedical applications.
What most excites you about joining the Lewis & Clark community?
I am very excited by the strong support for undergraduate science research, including cutting-edge instrumentation and newly renovated teaching and research facilities. I also love that students across all disciplines are encouraged to study abroad!
Describe the current trajectory of your scholarly research.
I am interested in giving students the opportunity to synthesize compounds found in wine and berries, attach these compounds to the surface of medical devices, and test the effect of these compounds on the growth and migration of cells found in the cardiovascular system. The goal of this work is to improve the body's healing response after the implantation of a stent, a medical device used to reopen narrow arteries found in patients with coronary heart disease.

Vincent Vallières, a Québécois singer-songwriter.
What was your favorite childhood story?
My father is an amazing storyteller. My favorites have always been his stories of growing up in the orange groves of Southern California with his dog, protector, and friend, Clancy.

Collegiate Kite Series: St. Petersburg, FL
CKA Fall Competition
Collegiate Kite Series: Tour Stop #1 – Tampa Bay Skyway Bridge – Nov 24, 2013 from CKA on Vimeo.
In the men's freestyle, Bret got into the finals with big 313, BJ, double S, combo run front roll to roll to revert back to back to back an a huge kl 3. Julien was throwing steezy BJ's back to blinds, 313's, s to blinds and was very consistent. Drew was doing BJ3's, front to blinds, steezy back to blinds with a nose grab, 313s, back to wrapped, and i think he had a hinderburg 3.
In the women's freestyle, Jamie had railey's , s bends, front rolls back roll.

Write up
All I can say is WOW, what an event! We kicked it off with a party at the Bends where the beer flowed like wine and the locals came through with plenty of spaces to crash in the Burg.
As soon as I saw the final lineup, I knew we had the best 10 riders from 7 different schools to conclude the final event of the fall season and they gave it all they had. On the flip side things are just heating up for CKA, with 3 more events still to come. We continue to diversify the sport by bringing together all aspects of the sport from racing to freestyle and hope to have riders from all levels expertise in future events.
On the line was $670 worth of cash and prizes donated by CKA and Liquid Force. After reviewing the score cards, a dizzying amount of highly technical tricks were performed, that even impressed Billy Parker. At the end of the day someone had to go home with the loot and at the top of the lineup was Florida Atlantic University that went home with a new 2014 Liquid Force Drive 136 Drive for highest ranking school. Patrick Fletcher aka "Rasta", dropped some high flying acrobatics, but I do believe he had one raley in which his board could have soared over everyone else's kites. Ben Peyrot also let loose with strong F-16's that weren't event contested by others. Not sure where the other ladies were for this contest, but like in comps past Jaime Fields continued to show the fellas that she has what it takes to compete in the man show.
Without giving away all the details, the freestyle competition started off with what we thought was 12 riders, but ended up with only ten competitors. Locals continued to trry and enter the fray, but were met with a lack of enthusiasm. The comp started off with 4 heats of 3, but going into the semifinals we had, Lewis Hunt and Julien Verglas to narrow it down. What began as an even match up, Lewis struggled with landing some back and front mobes, but Julien kept up an even and consistent run of raleys to blind and a sick slim chance to overcome. After that a round of three with Bret Sullivan, Jaime Fields and Patrick Fletcher squared off with only Bret moving on to the finals. Despite dropping two around all three kept the crowd cheering with some big blinds and s-bends. Rounding out the semis, Drew Christianson took on Sean Buell, which left the crowd jumping out of whatever chairs we had; well maybe that was just me as I caught Sean's kite when his leash unexpectedly snapped in two during his handle pass. Drew capitalized with some ultra-smooth shifty 3's as we got Sean back in the game, but despite the valiant effort; he wasn't able to make up the difference.
In the finals, I haven't seen so many ridiculously fit looking people so exhausted. Everyone was panting as I said, "You have 15 minutes for a break." For the finals Julien, Bret and Drew lined up as the wind finally came in at 20 plus and they all questioned their choice for 12 meters. No one went without dropping their kite twice, but Drew literally floated and landed like a blind butterfly to ride away with contest.
After all the riders were ready for a break daylight savings was kicking in and the final race had to start. The good thing was Drew had no idea how to win the event, so after going hoarse on the megaphone for three minutes, I had everyone ripping upwind toward the windward mark. Not sure anyone was a favorite for this event but, Sean Buell hailed victorious around the windward /leeward course with Lewis close behind and Bret once again staying in the money.
All in this entire event proved that College kiters are here to stay and hence forward will be the proving ground for major competitions in the future. This is only the beginning and we hope to have many competitors of all levels come out to cheer on the best and share this experience with everyone that wants to be a part of this awesome organization.
Thanks again to our sponsors Best Kiteboarding and Liquid Force!
Also, huge thanks goes out to my friends and organizers: Anthony Franchi, Mike Barden, Steve and Shannon Lincoln, Kendra Kaye, Billy Parker and Louis Chavez. More to come with a dope video of all the action in one week!

Twitter (officially) buys TweetDeck
Microblog app survives, at least for now
After days of rumours, Twitter has announced that it is buying the popular feed organizer, TweetDeck, for US$40 million.
For now, the 15-person TweetDeck team will continue in its Old Street HQ in London, and will continue to develop the software that has been downloaded by 20 million users.
However, the acquisition has already given rise to speculation that Twitter could eventually cherry-pick TweetDeck's most useful features, roll them into its own twitter.com interface, and kill off the standalone application.
(El Reg: this would be regrettable. Perhaps the most useful aspect of TweetDeck in the author's opinion is that it is so much lighter and thinner than running Twitter through a browser interface.)
However, Twitter's CEO Dick Costolo says his company recognizes the value of TweetDeck to the "power user". Continuing Twitter's inevitable abandonment of person-to-person communications in favour of becoming yet another platform for corporate spam, Costolo said TweetDeck "provides brands, publishers, marketers and others with a powerful platform to track all the real-time conversations they care about".
The deal was completed on Tuesday and acknowledged by TweetDeck founder Iain Dodsworth on the company's blog on Wednesday May 25th.
The acquisition is perhaps the most powerful and expensive example of Twitter's drive to impose
ham- iron-fisted control over third party apps. ®

Q: I'm upgrading my pump. Do I need new tubing as well?
Roger – Cordova, TN
A: Congratulations on the purchase of your new toy! To get the maximum flow out of your pump, you'll need to make sure your tubing size lines up with your flow rate.
Here's what we recommend:
- Up to 500 GPH: ½ inch tubing
- 501 – 900 GPH: ¾ inch tubing
- 901 – 1,500 GPH: 1 inch tubing
- 1,501 – 2,700 GPH: 1¼ inch tubing
- 2,701 – 3,600 GPH: 1½ inch tubing
- 3,601 – 5,400 GPH: 2 inch tubing
- 5,401 – 13,500 GPH: 3 inch tubing
When it comes to selecting a type of tubing, you can choose from three different types: flexible PVC tubing, flexible kink-free tubing and flexible black vinyl tubing. Each has its own unique features and uses. Here's what you need to know:
Flexible PVC Tubing
Ideal for water features, flexible PVC tubing can have water in it year round without damage from freezing temperatures, and the pipes can be buried. To join the lengths of pipe and plumb your pump, you will need to use schedule 40 PVC fittings and PVC glue. Flexible PVC is the most expensive of the bunch, but it's your best choice for high-flow pumps. It comes in 1½" to 4″ diameter.
Flexible Kink-Free Tubing
The most popular and widely used water feature tubing, flexible kink-free tubing makes plumbing jobs a breeze as it requires few pipe cuts and unions. The heavy-duty tubing can withstand freezing temperatures and being buried. Connect the tubing with barbed and insert fittings and hose clamps rather than messy glue. We have it in ½" to 1½" diameter.
Flexible Black Vinyl Tubing
Ideal for smaller pumps, fountains and statuary, flexible black vinyl tubing is connected with insert fittings and hose clamps. It's not sturdy enough to withstand being buried or left out in freezing temperatures. We carry 3/8″ to 1″ diameter tubing.
Get the most out of your new pump with the right tubing in the right size. You'll be glad you did!
Pond Talk: Have you re-plumbed your pump or pond recently? What plumbing tips can you share from your experience?

The upcoming sheriff's election initially put me in
a quandary. I am a personal friend of both candidates. I have worked
extensively with both of them over many years. I can confidently say
that I probably know their abilities as police officers as well as
anyone in the business. Both have strong personalities, a virtue in
any leadership position.
When you look at the comparison between the two candidates, it is
a no-brainer on who has the most law enforcement experience,
education, leadership skills and significant accomplishments.
Sheriff Nichols has 35 years of investigative and law enforcement
experience. Deputy Chief Geriets touts the 11-week FBI National
Academy as a pinnacle of his law enforcement education. While it is
a very prestigious school, it in no way trumps Sheriff Nichols'
four-year law enforcement degree from Western Illinois University,
Illinois State Police Academy, ISP Criminal Investigation Academy,
South Dakota State Police Academy and the myriad number of courses
since becoming sheriff.
As a part of the Gee Homicide Task Force, I worked alongside
Sheriff Nichols and the Illinois State Police, on a daily basis, to
identify and arrest the Harris brothers for one of the most heinous
crimes I witnessed in over 31 years.
Deputy Chief Geriets stated that "calling in the Illinois State
Police to assist in a major investigation is standard practice for
most departments, and was not special during this particular
While I am not sure what "not special" means, it was crucial to
have an experienced leader who paid attention to every detail. The
sheriff managed the investigation, personally directed multiple
search warrants, attended numerous evidentiary conferences with the
Illinois State Police Crime Lab, dealt with victims' families,
arranged for blanket security in Beason, addressed the public and
the media, consulted with then Assistant State's Attorney and
current State's Attorney Jonathan Wright and the Illinois attorney
general prosecutors, and responded to leads from all over the
country via a "tip line."
[to top of second column in this letter]
I was there. It was downright impressive to me. Sheriff Nichols
brought the right agencies to the task force and provided the
leadership and direction that culminated in the arrests. The Gee
Task Force was the largest, most organized and directed task force
ever organized in central Illinois and is now a model for all law
Between the time of the murders and the arrest of the Harris
brothers, Logan County citizens were afraid for their safety. The
countless hours worked by Sheriff Nichols and the task force brought
a huge sigh of relief and trust in the Gee Task Force and Sheriff
I believe that all Logan County citizens should ask themselves if
they feel safer in their homes with the knowledge that Steve Nichols
is the sheriff of Logan County. Sheriff Nichols provides the
leadership and experience you can trust.
Deputy Chief Geriets in his campaign literature says that "change
is good." Deputy Chief Geriets is my friend and could make a good
sheriff sometime down the road. To "change" for the sake of "change"
makes no sense to me. It seems to me that there should be a reason
for change.
Sheriff Nichols has earned your trust and support over the past
11 1/2 years. He has done nothing detrimental to running the office
of sheriff of Logan County. He leads the sheriff's office by his
example and has been true to his oath of office. Sheriff Nichols
deserves another term as your sheriff. I ask you to join me on March
18th to re-elect Sheriff Steve Nichols.

Kristen Stewart's Sushi Date With Other Man In Baton Rouge! Exclusive!
We've known Kona Grill is a favorite among the 'Breaking Dawn' cast, but we didn't think K-Stew would dine without Rob!
Kristen Stewart went on a date sans her boyfriend Robert Pattinson with a much older man — her dad! So K-Stew is staying totally loyal to her fanged lover, and simply opted for a low-key father-daughter date with her dad, John! HollywoodLife.com spoke to a source who reveals that Kristen and her dad went to the restaurant about two weeks ago and dined on raw fish.
"They were extremely nice," says our source. "They ate sushi and just seemed really happy."
Popular items on Kona Grill's menu include: Sweet-Chili Glazed Salmon ($19.75) and Miso-Sake Marinated Sea Bass ($23).
We've told you before that Joe Jonas, Ashley Greene and even Robert Pattinson are fans of the Japanese-American fusion restaurant, we just hope they all go there together — soon!

Eligibility: This fellowship is intended for early career social science and humanities scholars whose research contains a strong legal component and who plan to compete for a University teaching position in the U.S. market. Non-US citizens may apply, but must meet the stated criteria.
About the Fellowship: The Institute for Legal Studies of the University of Wisconsin Law School will appoint a post-doctoral fellow for the 2013-14 academic year. We invite applications from scholars who are in the early (pre-tenure) stage of their career or whose careers have been interrupted or delayed. Eligibility is limited to humanities or social science scholars who work in the law and society tradition, for example, anthropologists, economists, historians, political scientists, and sociologists. Advanced ABD graduate students may apply, but the PhD must be completed before beginning the fellowship. The stipend will be $25,000, plus a research allowance of $5,000 and benefits that include health insurance.
The fellowship is designed to support a scholar at an early stage in his or her career when, under prevailing circumstances, career pressures or teaching responsibilities might divert the individual away from research. At the Institute, the Fellow will be able to devote most of his or her time to research and writing and will find a sympathetic and critical audience to support that work. Fellows are expected to be in full-time residence in Madison, to organize and lead a colloquium for graduate students, and to participate in the intellectual life of the Institute, which includes lectures, workshops, and conferences.
Deadlines: The Institute for Legal Studies holds one post-doctoral fellowship competition per year. Completed applications, including letters of reference, must be received by January 10, 2013, in order to ensure full consideration. The award will be announced in March, 2013.More information about the application process is available here. A list of previous fellowship recipients is here.

The Colbert Report

He's not kidding, you know. That document is completely true. You can tell because only a brand manager would ever compose a memo that sounded like a buzzword-bingo cheat sheet.
Here then, is a bit of insight into what I do for a living. It's my job (with the help of many, many people, usually smarter and cooler than I am) to take that, and make it something like this:
I've never worked on Old Spice, but I guarantee you they have the same sort of guidelines. They have brand managers and strategiests who say things like "Old Spice is not an exclusionary brand" and who want the ads to inform people that "Old Spice's line of unique scents help teens 12-18 feel empowered and individual." There are lines explaining that "the Old Spice product should never be shown doing something cool. Old Spice doesn't do cool things, it gives the people the confidence to do cool things themselves".
Is any of that actually written down somewhere at W+K? Who knows. But that's the kind of language you get handed, and it's your job as an Ad Man to – in the parlance of the business- "solve it." And it is a problem that needs solving.
This may come as a shock, but I don't actually have anything against brand managers, and certainly nothing against strategists, who are liable to say things like "The message we want to communicate is that Old Spice helps me feel empowered." Yes, on paper it sounds ridiculous. Hell, it is ridiculous. But it's also necessary in order to make great ads. I once had a legendary Creative Director tell me, "I know how good a campaign will be just by the strategy team assigned to it." You get the right strategy, the ads practically make themselves.
And brand managers? Well, look at it this way- without brand guidelines, Apple's website could be hot pink. Sure, it doesn't match the aesthetic of the iBooks, iPods, and iPads, but who cares? In fact, forget all this iStuff- let's call the next iBook a jBook. Cause, see, "j" is the next letter after "i", and this is a newer version, so… Sound crazy? Some moron would try it, trust me.
And so you take this ridiculously corporate, soulless language, these documents full of "extreme" "unique" "inclusive" "shareable" and the like. And you try to make something human out of it. "Old Spice's line of unique scents helps teens 12-18 feel empowered and individual?" Let's tell people when they use it they Smell Like Power. In hindsight it sounds incredibly easy. In actual practice, when you've only got a couple of hours and a sheet of paper so pompous it can be thrown as-is into a Stephen Colbert skit, it's a bit trickier.
So let's all raise a glass of whatever you like, and drink it alongside no more than 16 wheat thins, which will perfectly compliment whichever beverage you've chosen. To the brand managers. To the strategists. And to my mother, who may or may not have any better idea of what I do for a living after reading this.
