Tinnitus Success Story 1: Beth
With a background in speech pathology and audiology, Beth Loeben had an idea what her issue was when her ears suddenly started ringing as she relaxed on the family couch on Christmas day. She wasn't concerned, though—the sound was quiet, only in the background. But Beth had no idea her peace of mind was going to be so short-lived.
A few days later, a traumatic event happened in front of Beth's home that was very stressful for her and her family. Then, suddenly and dramatically, the switch was flipped, and her tinnitus ramped up to unbearable levels.
Beth's tinnitus was high-pitched, marked by the sound of high-speed winds and glass shards smashing together. The sound followed her relentlessly 24 hours a day. Her work suffered; she found it impossible to string a thought together to write an email. She even approached her HR department about taking an extended leave of absence.
Beth pursued every avenue she could think of to find relief. She saw an audiologist who, when Beth asked what could be done to lessen her symptoms, replied, "Not much." She saw an acupuncturist who offered her several relaxing sessions, countless supplements, but no actual relief. And, she went to an ENT, who gave her a complete physical workup and declared her structurally perfect. Nothing was physically wrong with her, it seemed, so nothing could be done.
Beth hit bottom. In one last desperate attempt, she went to a new clinician's office in Colorado called Sound Relief. She told them she needed help and she broke down. Beth was immediately comforted to hear that the doctor running the clinic had tinnitus herself. Right away, Beth felt better, knowing she had found a doctor who could empathize because she had walked in Beth's shoes.
Beth's doctor recognized that she had to lessen her anxiety, which was only making her tinnitus worse. She started Beth on tone therapy and within a week her anxiety had dissipated. Beth's doctor also fitted her with hearing aids that deliver tones to her ears that calmed her, masked the tinnitus and lessened her symptoms.
Today, with her anxiety gone and her symptoms managed, Beth is living an active life with her tinnitus. She encourages all patients struggling with tinnitus to not be scared of or embarrassed by their condition—rather, to seek out help … because there are solutions that work and people who care.

Tinnitus Success Story 2: Robert
For over three decades, Robert Winston has been protecting the public. As a career firefighter, Robert has been called on to put out fires, step up in the face of tragedy, and help those who couldn't help themselves. But it took a community of support when he needed help saving himself.
Robert started noticing the symptoms of tinnitus in the early 1980s. For 20 years, he lived relatively comfortably with the sound, and dismissed it as a side-hazard of a noisy job. But in 2000, the noise level dramatically spiked. Almost overnight, Robert's tinnitus went from a mildly annoying background noise to a crippling, deafening din.
Robert quickly spiraled into a debilitating depression. He couldn't eat. He couldn't sleep. He lost weight and muscle strength. The once-virile Robert rarely left his bed, his days and nights spent shaking and sweating. And despite his wife's best attempts to comfort him, Robert genuinely thought he was going to die.
While we know very little today about effective tinnitus treatments, 20 years ago, we knew even less. Robert's physician prescribed him an anti-depressant to try to improve the state of Robert's mental health—but it made the tinnitus even worse.
Robert was desperate for relief, but not ready to give up. Finally, he found a clinician well-versed in treating tinnitus. He put Robert on a treatment plan that including tinnitus retraining therapy, counseling, and the support of loving family and friends. That plan, along with some prayer, Robert says, helped him out of the darkness. He now considers himself a "tinnitus survivor," and speaks and writes about his experience to try to help other firefighters prevent and manage the condition.

Tinnitus Success Story 3: Glenn
Glenn Schweitzer has never known silence. As far as he knows, he was born with tinnitus. He never remembers a time when he couldn't hear a high-pitched tone, and it was a revelation to learn that other people couldn't hear it, too. Still, tinnitus was his definition of normal, so his life with it was relatively comfortable. But in 2011, that all changed. Glenn was diagnosed with Meniere's disease, and the companionable pitch he had always known became a fire alarm in his ear, screeching without ceasing day and night.
Soon after Glenn's diagnosis, he began meditating to cope with the stress of Meniere's. While it helped some, the tinnitus repeatedly broke his concentration. Every time he would try to meditate—clearing his mind, focusing all of his attention on the rising and falling of his breath—his tinnitus would break through and drive him to distraction.
One night, as he was lying in bed and once again struggling to meditate, he was struck by an idea. He knew that an important part of his meditation practice was focusing his attention on a single thing—usually his breathing. What if, instead of trying to push away his tinnitus, he focused on it instead? What if he allowed his brain to spend time with the thing it was working so hard to resist?
To Glenn's astonishment, it worked. As he focused on his tinnitus, his mind began to wander. He would pull it back to the tinnitus, and it would wander again. It was like his mind suddenly lost interest. And when he completed his first session, the ringing was markedly quieter. Glenn was stunned—and elated.
Glenn continued to practice tinnitus-focused meditation every chance he got. His symptoms lessened, his sleep got better, and his quality of life improved dramatically. Glenn even went on to write a book about his experience called Rewiring Tinnitus: How I Finally Found Relief from the Ringing in My Ears.

About at one o'clock in the morning I looked out of the window and noticed it was snowing. It looked like the landscape was covered in powdered sugar; it was very beautiful, like a magical fairy forest, but I also wished the snow would melt away quickly so spring would advance; I am already sick of winter.
I really don't understand why I have felt so manic and insomniac for the past week for almost every night, I don't know if it's my usual PMS.
It's always the same, right after the monthly bleeding ends I have one week of sanity and then it starts again; my breasts swell and feel tender, and I am aggressive to the point of being psychotic.
I spent most of the night doing the same thing, cleaning out my closet like Eminem; I found a satisfying amount of useless stuff to give away, but also felt like I have become a bit neurotic about it.
About at quarter past three o'clock in the morning I brushed my teeth, they were covered in mould and they felt a bit unpleasant.
I went back to bed, turned off the lights, lied down and closed my eyes, and managed to fall into deep sleep.
I had a dream about the first Doctor and his travels with his granddaughter, Susan "Arkytion" Foreman, those dreams were very funny and they almost made me laugh in my sleep.
In the morning I got up about at quarter past nine o'clock, took my morning medicine, had an efficient wash, and dressed up. I wore a black cotton blouse with a pattern of red and green cherry clusters and a red satin bow on the neck, and a pair of purple Daisy Duck pyjama pants.
There was a bright sunshine outside, and the temperature was low.
I took the sheets off my bed and replaced the towels, and put them to the washing machine right away because they didn't fit into the laundry basket.
I also took my mattress, pillow and blanket to the balcony, I am going to keep them there for the night and sleep on the sofa- bed.
I went to the library and returned every single one of the books and DVDs I had checked out from there, paid my fees, and retrieved my request, the Finnish translation of the book Go Ask Alice; the translation is named Ruohoa, lunta which could be translated as "grass, snow" or "weed, coke".
I have decided to read one book at a time; after finishing the aforementioned book, I am going to read J. D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye and then J. R. R. Tolkien's Fellowship of the Ring.
Once back home, I took both of the carpets to the balcony and hoovered the floor, and also washed another load of laundry.
By now my apartment is tidy enough, but I still need to hoover the floor under the furniture, take out the recycling, take both the mattress and the bigger carpet outside to dust them and then put clean linen into my bed.
I also need to wash the basic laundry; throw rug, shower cap, bathrobe, and the apron I wear when washing the dishes; speaking of washing the dishes, I need to wash my toothbrush cup, the glass plate in my microwave oven, and every single one of the scissors in my home.
I went outside again, this time I took two bags of stuff to a charity shop container, and went to the Myyrmanni pharmacy to pick up a new batch of Ketipinor medicine.
Once back home, I dealt the pills into my Dosett and counted how long the batches are going to last if I take them regularly, and jotted down the dates on my wall calendar when I need to renew the prescriptions again.
I was feeling bored again so I called my mother and told her I am coming for a visit, she said it's alright. I was just about to leave when my doorbell rang, I knew it would be the repairer who was coming to fix my Internet connection and upgrade my virus protection.
I just didn't remember he was coming so early.
After the visit, I caught the bus 571 to Raappavuori; mom was napping, I drank some orange juice and used mom's laptop to surf on the Internet.
Later the day I caught the same bus to Myyrmäki, and went to Citymarket in Myyrmanni shopping center and bought a roll of lavender- scented plastic trash bags, a roll of biodegradable trash bags, a canister of nature- friendly laundry detergent, and a pair of new socks; now I have eight pairs of socks, which means I can make do for about a week and I won't run out of clean socks before the next laundry turn.
Once back home, I cut the price tag off the socks and put them into my laundry basket, and put the trash bags and the detergent canister into my kitchen drawer.
I took the rest of the stuff bags to a charity shop container. My rough guesstimation is that I have given eight bags of stuff to charity.
Once back home, my Internet connection finally worked. I updated my blogs and enjoyed my time being, until it was five o'clock in the evening and I went to my friend Pinky's birthday party.
I was the first to arrive there. I gave her a necklace as a birthday present, it has a pendant with a picture of a guinea pig dressed as Dame Edna. She loves the piggies as much as me, I also gave her a birthday card that both Elyseé and Emjuso had signed.
Later the evening about four of her friends came over, I didn't recognize them from before, but they were all so nice and friendly to me. Later Tintin also came.
We had fun, sang "Happy birthday" to Pinky, ate sweet and savory treats, I worked as a DJ on Pinky's laptop and played all kinds of funky and punky songs, like Move Your Feet by Junior Senior, and Pretty Fly For a White Guy by Offspring.
Later the evening I had to leave in order to make it home before I have to take my evening medicine; I hugged everyone and told them to take care, and once back home, I called Pinky and told her that I had made it back home safely.

UW Students March For Education
Staff Reporter
About a hundred demonstrators chanted as they marched along University Way Northeast. Student activists want state lawmakers to defend higher education, stop tuition hikes and bring back essential services that have been cut in the last few years.
Dierdra Burns is in the service workers' union. Her motivation for protesting is grief.
Burns: "Grief over the 1 percent wanting to create a world in which man, woman and child are on their own and it's everybody for themselves. We have to stop this."
Police were clearly prepared for protestors. Dozens of officers lined up in front of Chase Bank and Wells Fargo. Marchers were peaceful but vocal.
They were led by the coalition's president, David Parsons.
Parsons: "What we hope at the end of the day is that legislators and other decision makers will prioritize the 99 percent when they are making decisions about how to balance the budget."
The group is planning more teach–ins and rallies in coming weeks in different locations around the city.

Senate leaders are to blame, he says, as parks advocates warn of damage.
The former chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform panel on Wednesday denied any responsibility for the current budget stalemate that risks a government shutdown. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said he has "never voted for a shutdown and never will," noting he consistently votes for bills that would keep the government open, but that stall in the Senate.
Issa told reporters at the Data Transparency Coalition conference in Washington that "the president's lack of leadership" and Senate's failure to take up six House-passed spending bills "are a disservice. I say to [Majority Leader Mitch] McConnell, [R-Ky.] and [Minority Leader Harry] Reid, [D-Nev.], "Shame on your body." Issa promised not to leave town if the government does shut down and to vote every day. "I hope all House speakers in the future commit to passing all the appropriations bills," he added.
Also on Wednesday, the nonprofit National Parks Conservation Association released a letter it sent to all members of Congress warning that an Oct. 1 shutdown "would significantly harm national parks and cost millions in lost revenue for local communities."
Noting that next year will mark the 100 th anniversary celebration of the National Park Service, the group reminded lawmakers that the closure of parks during the 16-day shutdown in 2013 was a major setback. Many Republicans -- Issa among them -- two years ago disagreed with the Park Service's interpretation of the Anti-Deficiency Act and argued that the federally owned parking lot at Mount Vernon (privately owned), for example, should remain open, along with the memorials on the National Mall.
The government shutdown, the association said, turned away almost eight million visitors and cost local communities nearly a half billion dollars. A 2015 shutdown could mean as much as $42 million in visitor spending would be lost every day at a time when the park system is experiencing record-breaking attendance, the letter noted. The Park Service has experienced budget cuts of 7 percent during the past five years and tallies an $11.5 billion maintenance backlog, according to the group.
"Today the shutdown would once again be a sad chapter in the struggle to adequately fund our nation's needs, including America's national parks," wrote association President Clark Bunting. "A government shutdown only brings into focus the families, communities, businesses and dedicated park rangers who struggle while our national treasures are shuttered."
His group urged "swift passage of a bipartisan continuing resolution clean of environmentally damaging policy riders, followed by a committed bipartisan effort to enact a budget deal that replaces the sequester and allows for the needed restoration of funding for the National Park Service in fiscal year 2016."

Dead Horse Ranch dedicates two new lagoons
Photo by Steve Ayres
THE NEW lagoons include a handicap-accessible fishing pier.
Park Manager Les Bovee hosted a group of speakers that included State Representative Tom O'Halleran and District 3 Supervisor Chip Davis. The speakers addressed the impact the improvements, and the park in general, will have on the Verde Valley.
Dead Horse Ranch State Park has recently seen $3.5 million spent on improvements. Along with the two new lagoons, the park has added 82 more camping spaces bringing the total to 150 RV sites with both electric power and drinking water and relined to old lagoon to control water loss.
The two new lagoons have increased the total lake surface to over 20 acres. Although inner tubes and other non-Coast Guard approved inflatable devises are not permitted, all three lagoons permit the use of most non-motorized watercraft.
Arizona Game and Fish stocked the old 3.7-acre lagoon with 30,000 trout last year. They have been stocking about 3,500 trout every other week in the new lagoons, but plan on ceasing the stocking for a few months so the ponds can settle out. Next year they plan on stocking bass and catfish.
The new lagoons feature wheelchair accessible, cantilevered fishing platforms, new ramadas and a fish cleaning station. Many of the recent additions to the park have been made with the handicapped in mind including campsites, trails and access to birding areas.
Within the next 12 months, the park plans on adding four modern shower and restroom buildings along with "camping cabins."
Ranger Max Castillo, who was recognized for his dedication to the river by O'Halleran, said that the new lagoon, along with some recent land additions to the Verde River Greenway would be a substantial addition to the riparian habitat.
The Verde River Greenway, when completed, will run from Tuzigoot to Bridgeport and provide a protected corridor and walkway along the riverbank.
Dead Horse Ranch State Park was originally owned by the Ireys family. The park supposedly got its name from their children. After looking at several prospective places to build a ranch the children said they wanted the one where they had seen the dead horse.
In 1973, the Ireys family sold the ranch to the State of Arizona for one third of its assessed value, for the purpose of creating a park. One of the stipulations in the sale was that the park would retain the name given to it by the Ireys' children.
The park opened to the public in 1977 and now features fishing, canoeing, camping, birding, mountain biking, horseback riding, hiking and picnicking.

Griffin attends a Montessori school just up the road from us.
They have a beautiful class garden right next to their classroom
that we pass whenever we drive home from anywhere in our little town.
It is just about the most cheerful garden I have ever seen.
The children had a huge hand in tending it last school year.
When we pass by it, Griffin always points out
that he helped rake and prepare the soil for planting.
We often see his teacher gardening when we drive by.
I just love that she is taking time
from her summer break
to give the plants and flowers some love.
The flags that line the fence were hand painted by the students
and seem to watch over the garden while the kids are away.
Even the flowers look proud.
I like to think that if his teacher's attention
can help plants flourish so beautifully,
that the students in her class must bloom as well.
It makes me happy to know that in
just a few short weeks
my children will be at their school,
tending to their class gardens.
Want to join me in my quest
to scout out happiness for a whole year?
Simply post a photo of something that
makes you wildly happy and tell us all about it.

United States Army Audit Agency
The U.S. Army Audit Agency (USAAA) provides objective and independent auditing services to the United States Army.
At the request of the Under Secretary of War, the Army Audit Agency was established on 12 November 1946 with the issuance of General Order No. 135. The Agency was placed under the jurisdiction of the Chief of Finance and tasked with maintaining appropriation and fund accounting, maintaining military property accountability, and auditing the accounts of the American Red Cross.
With implementation of the DOD Reorganization Act of 1986, the Agency was placed under the sole jurisdiction of The Secretary of the Army. Subsequent General Orders made The Auditor General responsible for internal audit services throughout the Department of the Army, including audit policy, training, follow-up, and liaison with external audit organizations.
The Auditor General of the Army, The Principal Deputy Auditor General, and three Deputy Auditors General, each of whom is in charge of specific aspects of agency operations – Acquisition and Logistics Audits, Forces and Financial Audits, and Policy and Operations Management, lead the U.S. Army Audit Agency.
The Agency Headquarters is located in Alexandria, Virginia and has 23 field offices—19 in the continental United States and 4 outside the continental United States (Alaska, Germany, Hawaii, and the Republic of Korea).[1] In 1994, the agency was selected to be a Government Performance and Results Act pilot agency.
The Agency is authorized 608 personnel (607 civilians and 1 military). For the most part, the audit teams are functionally aligned, but two teams have a geographic focus: Theater Operations, Europe and Theater Operations, Pacific. There is another team that works directly with deployed Army units in Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

21. September 2015
World Park(ing) Day – 18.09.2015
The campaign was founded in San Francisco in 2005. This campaign day takes place around the globe every third Friday in September.
In doing so, artists, activists and citizens use car parks for pop-up-cafes, vegetable gardens, galleries, libraries and the like.
In areas where cars otherwise park and block public space, people use this day to reclaim parking spaces and send out a message for cities that are more attractive to live in.
This is also stated in the KLAUS Multiparking company philosophy:
Therefore, KLAUS Multiparking, also started a campaign in the car park.
On 18.09.2015 KLAUS Multiparking relocated their canteen to their car park where each and every employee get a free snack.
Fresh organic milk and organic yoghurt has been also on offer.
The products are produced by cows that have grazed on the in-house organic meadow.

Starbucks Executive Chairman Howard Schultz told CBS This Morning Tuesday that closing the company's 8,000 stores for a day of diversity training is just the start of several measures the company will be taking to deal with issues of unconscious bias after two black men were arrested in a Philadelphia Starbucks store.
"There's no doubt in my mind that the reason that [the police] were called was because they were African American. And I think I'm embarrassed by that and I'm ashamed of that. That's not who Starbucks is."— Howard Schultz

What Bacteria Causes Heartburn Is Answered By Research
Most of us have suffered from heartburn at one time or another. It is that feeling of pain and burning in in the upper abdomen and behind the sternum.
It is usually caused by acid reflux or acid indigestion.
The burning pain we feel is the stomach acid moving up into the back of the throat and causing inflammation which hurts.
Typically heartburn occurs right after or during eating or when we lie down too soon after we eat.
In the United States, people suffer from heartburn on a daily basis and in some it is a sign of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). In others is may be a one-time only even, not related to any disease.
It is common for people who are overweight or obese to suffer from heartburn because they may have increased pressure on the valve between the esophagus and the stomach and this will prevent reflux.
Excessive stomach acid can cause some individuals to be more prone to heartburn and research has shown the presence of certain bacteria in the stomach triggers the production of excess stomach acid.
Researchers have been asking the question, 'What bacteria causes heartburn?' and discovered that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) may cause excessive stomach acid leading to reflux.
The answer to the question, what bacteria causes heartburn is H. pylori, a bacteria found in the stomach. H. pylori is responsible for many stomach ailments including most ulcers and chronic gastritis which is inflammation of the stomach.
It causes these illnesses by weakening the stomach's and the duodenum's protective coating which allows the digestive juices to damage and irritate their sensitive linings.
H. pylori is found in almost half of the world's population, however most individuals who have this bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract do not get any type of illness from it.
Research suggests that there must also be certain other factors present in order for the H. pylori to create an illness and for intestinal damage to happen.
These factors that increase risk for ulcers or gastrointestinal illness include:
- Abnormal intestinal immune responses
- Lifestyle habits including smoking, drinking coffee, and continual stress
- Inheriting certain bacteria strains which are more dangerous than others
When a patient is diagnosed with an ulcer, the doctor should then test the patient for H. pylori by taking blood, tissue, and stool samples.
The doctor can also do a urea breath test where the patient swallows a capsule containing urea which is a chemical consisting of nitrogen and carbon.
If there is H. pylori present, the urea will break up and form carbon dioxide.
The carbon dioxide will travel to the lungs and samples of exhaled breath will be collected.
This test is between 94% and 98% accurate.
The doctor may also do an upper endoscopy as well to diagnose H. pylori. Biopsy specimens of the duodenum and stomach are taken and examined in the lab for evidence of H. pylori.
Stool tests may also be used to look for evidence of H. pylori and is also accurate for diagnosing H. pylori.
H. pylori is spiral-shaped and as stated above is found in the stomach and duodenum. It causes inflammation and peptic ulcers.
Thirty to forty percent of the American population is believed to have H. pylori, but fortunately most people never develop any type of symptoms or ulcers.
However, when an individual does develop an ulcer, H. pylori is the leading cause behind the development of the ulcer.
Researchers believe that H. pylori's characteristics and its shape are the reasons that it causes the damage that leads to the ulcers.
The shape and the way the bacteria move allow them to penetrate the stomach's and duodenum's protective mucous lining.
This is where the stomach produces the urease which is the enzyme that generates the substances that neutralizes the stomach's acids.
When the H. pylori penetrate this protective lining, the stomach cannot produce the urease which inhibits its ability to generate the enzyme that neutralizes the stomach's acids.
Therefore those acids begin damaging the stomach's cells and leads to sores and ulcers in the stomach and duodenum.
The first indications that damage is happening is heartburn because excess stomach acid begins backing up the throat causing inflammation and pain.
H. pylori bacteria also attach to the stomach cells which further weakens the stomach's ability to defend itself and causing inflammation.
Researchers also believe H. pylori can stimulate the stomach to produce more acid, although they are not sure why or how.
H. pylori is typically treated in a variety of ways and treatment is decided by the doctor based on a number of factors:
- How advanced the illness may be
- The age, medical history, and overall health of the patient
- The patient's tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
- The expectations for the course of the disease
- The patient's preference or opinions
Treatment may include, but not be limited to:
- Antibiotics
- Medications to suppress acid production including
- Proton pump inhibitors which can block stomach acid production
- H2-blockers reducing the amount of acid in the stomach and blocking histamine
- Stomach-lining protectors
'What bacteria causes heartburn' is a question medical researchers have studied for a long time and now that they have the answer, hopefully they can begin to develop a cure that will provide relief from the pain caused by this small creature.

About Our Pastor
About Our Pastor
Elmo E. Thomas was born in 1948 in Brooklyn, New York. He was educated in the public school system of New York and graduated from George Westinghouse Technical High School. In 1965, he enlisted in the United States Army where he served 3 years of active duty and 3 years as an active reserve.
Elder Thomas was a radio repairman, having a military occupational specialty (MOS). He was also a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was then stationed in Gelnhausen, Germany for the remainder of his active duty service.
In 1968, he left his active duty service and relocated to Brooklyn where he went to work for the New York Telephone Company. Using his education and military training, he worked as a repairman and installer for the company. He was promoted to deskman in 1969 and became one of two African-Americans to hold that position at that time.
He left the phone company and worked in the trucking business for 15 years as a driver and finally, as a dispatcher. He then went to work for the New York City Transit Authority. He retired from that job after 25 years.
In 1969, Elder Thomas was blessed to marry the love of his life, Celeaster Galbrieth. They have been married for more than 49 years, and God willing, on June 21, 2019, they will be celebrating their 50th anniversary. From this union, they were blessed with two children: a son, Darrell, and a daughter, Lakeisha, both of whom have brought much joy to their lives.
They are the proud grandparents of three wonderful grandsons, Terrell, Darrell Jr, and Kendall. They also have a great daughter-in-law, Lasonya, whom they love as their own.
Elder Thomas was called to the Ministry and licensed on September 19, 1993, at House of Faith, under the leadership of Apostle Douglas Johnson. He was ordained as an elder by Apostle Johnson on July 23, 2000. Elder Thomas was reaffirmed as an elder by Bishop Joseph Williams of Christ Church International and the Joint College of Pentecostal Bishops on September 25, 2010.
On April 20, 2013, he was certified as a chaplain by the Burroughs Divinity Bible School. In July 2013, they relocated to Columbia, South Carolina where they joined Greater Refuge Temple Church of God in Christ. Pastor Thomas was reaffirmed as an elder by the Church of God in Christ by the Jurisdictional Bishop Johnnie J. Johnson on March 20, 2015.
Elder Thomas knew 15 years ago that he was called to be a pastor on November 16, 2018. He accepted that calling, and under the direction of the Holy Spirit, God gave him the name House of Praise Ministries. God moved swiftly and put in place all that was needed and gave the theme: The Year of a New Beginning.

Could you eat like Tom Brady for a day?
CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) - Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen are admired for their svelte physiques and if you think staying that fit takes a lot of discipline and hard work when it comes to food—you're right.
It turns out Brady, Bündchen and their kids eat mostly vegetables—with a few exceptions—and complex carbs are strictly forbidden.
But what does a day of eating like this look like?
Nutritionist Sarah Arel joined us LIVE on GDC to explain what the Brady's diet is and how you can do it yourself.

MANSFIELD, Mass. – The NCAA announced on Wednesday that four members of the Northeast 10 Conference have earned the Presidents' Award for Academic Excellence – an honor bestowed upon Division II institutions that earn an Academic Success Rate of 90 percent or higher.
In the eighth year of the program, 27 schools will receive the recognition, with the NE10 and Great Lakes Valley Conference each boasting a nation-best four schools to the list.
Of six schools that posted an ASR of 97 percent or better, the NE10 had two schools included – as well as holding the top spot, with Bentley recording a stellar 99 percent to lead the country. Saint Michael's was close behind with 97 percent.
Stonehill (96 percent) and Assumption (91 percent) will also be honored, as all four institutions greatly contributed to the league's overall ASR of 86 percent – tied for the top mark among the 24 conferences that make up Division II athletics.
"The schools we recognize with the Presidents' Award for Academic Excellence demonstrate a firm commitment to support the academic success of student-athletes," said Glen Jones, president of Henderson State and chair of the Division II Presidents Council. "We commend them for their ongoing efforts to provide student-athletes with the opportunity to excel in the classroom, on the field and for life."
The Academic Success Rate is the percentage of student-athletes who graduate within six years of initial college enrollment and includes virtually all Division II student-athletes, including transfers and those not receiving athletic scholarships. The most recent ASR consists of data from student-athletes who enrolled in school from 2008-11.
Division II student-athletes continue to graduate at a higher rate than the general student body. The federal rate for the 2011 entering class of student-athletes increased one point to 57 percent, compared to 50 percent for the general student body.
The NE10 is an association of 15 diverse institutions serving student-athletes across 24 NCAA Division II sports. Together we build brilliant futures by embracing the journey of every student-athlete.
Each year, 4,500 of those student-athletes compete in conference championships in 24 sports, making the NE10 the largest DII conference in the country in terms of sport sponsorship. Leading the way in the classroom, on the field and within the community, the NE10 is proud of its comprehensive program and the experience it provides student-athletes.

The more I read about California's drought, the more it feels like an episode of TNT's Dallas reboot. Are the hazards of fracking akin to those of groundwater drilling? One contaminates it and the other depletes it. And in case depletion doesn't scare you enough, now groundwater drilling is collapsing the Central Valley. As Claudia Faunt of the US Geological Survey told 60 Minutes late last year, "So much groundwater has been pumped out here that the geological survey says it's causing another problem: parts of the valley are literally sinking."
When we ask ourselves, "less food or less water?", the answer gets very complicated very quickly. California produces over 90% of the nation's supply of broccoli, avocados, celery, artichokes, walnuts, plums and other major agricultural crops, all of which depend on water from the Central Valley. It should frighten all of us, then, that the most recent drought map shows the Central Valley as one of the most water-barren areas in the country.
Jay Famiglietti, senior water scientist at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory/Caltech, wrote an op-ed in the LA Times that Californians only have a year of water left, so those still in denial about 'Droughtmageddon' better wake up. In California and elsewhere, people want their irresponsibly long showers just as much as their irresponsibly inefficient Hummers. Water may have replaced oil as the natural resource cause célèbre, but at least we can live without fossil fuels.
We're all experiencing sustainability and conservation fatigue on an unprecedented level, whether we're talking or listening to someone talk about these problems. It's understandable, but we need to remember that realistic solutions are within reach. Fortunately, the state legislature will remind us with the new water restriction laws that were passed earlier this month. They'll probably go further than the frightening op-eds, anyway.
Of course, people who run their faucets while brushing their teeth aren't monsters. Most of us could benefit from a mandatory course in water literacy. And while the new commercial and residential water restrictions may not turn average Californians into Greenpeace activists, they can't hurt. Our collective prayers for rain aren't working. Instead of praying, fix those leaks, take shorter showers, let it mellow if it's yellow, and use reclaimed water for landscaping. We ought to know better than to beg for ice water in hell.

Semi Arid Grassland
About an hour's drive southeast of Tucson there is a beautiful grassland community known as the Las Cienegas National Conservation Area. It is on the edge of the Sonoran desert, and is an area of gentle rolling hills. Mesquite tress have been invading the grassland, and the BLM has tried to remove the trees by controlled burns, and mechanically removing them with bulldozers. One of my friends Danielle, has been looking at how these methods affect the small mammal populations in the grasslands. I had the chance to help Danielle and her friend Eric during one day of their work. One of the rodents caught in a live trap Danielle, and Eric set. In each plot there were 100 traps set, and in many of the plots over 90% of the traps had animals in them when we checked. The traps are baited with bird seed and checked early the next day. Any captured animals are identified, and sometimes measured and marked, then released where they were caught. Kangaroo rats are especially adapted to dry conditions in that they never have to drink. They get all the water they need from the seeds they eat. Their kidneys are much better at conserving water than those in other mammals such as humans. One kangaroo rat built this mound and the paths leading to it. A bit of care must be taken when handling the animals as they will bite!

It's just a disconnect that I have.
At work, we celebrated Halloween last Friday.
Our titles included: Miss Demeanor, Miss Conception (because she is really pregnant), and I was Miss Communication. Communication was misspelled on my sash. When my co-worker painted the sashes, she misspelled it. Which is funny…..but what really had us in stitches was the fact that no one noticed!!
As part of my outfit, I taped words on my shirt that are
Can't (My dear sweet mom would always say recite this saying when my brother and I would say can't: Can't never could do anything.) It.Has.Stuck.
An't Never
You Know (No. I don't know. I don't know what you are about to say.)
You Know What I'm Sayin' (Again, no. Finish your sentence, and then, I'll know what you said.)
Miss Conception wore a paci around her neck as a necklace.
Miss Demeanor wore handcuff and made an inmate shirt.
Saturday night- H and I hosted a little Halloween party with our supper club.
Here is a photo dump to prove it.
And.....here is little buddy. He was a hotdog. Of. Course.

Trapline offers bat removal services in Central Florida. Bats are found to be most active at night and are seen exiting building structures at dusk. There are various species of bats in Florida. They are mouse-sized with wings and are usually in shades of brown. They are most common near water and many species roost in dark areas in buildings, attics, behind shutters, caves and other hiding places during the day and they eat insects. Bats have one (1) litter per year in the Spring. They can have between one (1) to four (4) offspring per litter, depending on the species. They are frequently seen flying over water or around street lights as they try to catch flying insects. Bats are often feared as being carriers of rabies although they can be infected with the rabies virus like any other animals like dogs, cats, raccoons, and skunks; bats infected with rabies are not known to become generally enraged and attack people and other animals. Once infected with the rabies virus, bats usually become paralyzed and die quietly. Histoplasmosis is another disease associated with bats. It is an infectious disease caught by inhaling the spores of the Histoplasma Capsulatum fungus from the bat guano. Although the disease primarily affects the lungs, symptoms vary greatly. There have been situations where other organs have been affected which can be fatal if left untreated.
During the day, bats find rest in dark secluded roosts such as hollow trees, caves, under bridges, crevices, and the attics of buildings. During the winter, there are fewer insects and some bats migrate while others hibernate in caves, trees, or buildings. Most bats in Florida enter Torpor which is a form of deep sleep during the day and on winter nights when it is too cold for their insect food to fly. Bats in Florida can live for about ten (10) to twelve (12 ) years. They are creatures of habit and will frequent the same roost year after year even though they may use it seasonally.
Confirming the presence of bats in your home or building is often confirmed by seeing bats emerge from various openings at dusk. One might be able to hear squeaking and rustling noises coming from ceilings and walls and may indicate a bat colony is present. An infestation can also be seen by the bats leaving behind guano which can be found outside of the home and building. If you believe that you may have bats roosting in your attic, eve or chimney spaces, now is the time to act. It is illegal to harm or kill bats in Florida, but they can be legally excluded from a building or structure in an effective and safe manner that protect bats and people. Any bat exclusion of bat colonies must be done between August 15 through April 15.
In Florida, bat exclusions are illegal during their maternity season from April 16 through August 14. It is during this time that bats gather to give birth and raise their young. The season lasts until the young bats can fly and fend for themselves. Any bat exclusion work done during the maternity season would require special permitting from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission.
Florida is home to thirteen (13) resident bat species, including threatened species such as the Florida bonneted bat. Since some bat species may roost in artificial structures, including buildings and houses, guidelines that protect bats have been developed allowing for the legal exclusion of bats outside of the maternity season. Bat exclusions are illegal during the maternity season, from April 16 through August 14, to prevent young bats that cannot yet fly from being trapped inside structures and dying.
Bats are beneficial to people and are an important part of the ecosystem. The state's native bats help keep insect populations under control, with the average bat eating hundreds of insects a night. In addition to the benefit of keeping mosquitoes at bay for residents enjoying the outdoors, the dollar value of insect suppression by bats to U.S. agriculture has been estimated to be in the billions.
Residents can help bats thrive in Florida by preserving natural roost sites, including trees with cavities, peeling bark and dead palm fronds; by putting up a bat house; and reporting unusual bat behavior to MyFWC.com/BatMortality.
For more information on Florida's bats, go to MyFWC.com/Bats. Contact your closest FWC Regional Office to speak with a regional Wildlife Assistance Biologist for more information.

New Testament Reading is from Ephesians Chapter 2, Verses 4-9:
But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions – it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. [NIV]
On this Thanksgiving Sunday, I would like to share with you the evolution of my understanding of the god of Jesus Christ from my childhood to the present.
When I was a child, my god was an old man with gray hair falling down to his shoulders. His eyes were narrow and straight like a ruler. His face was covered with wrinkles, and that face never smiled. His eyes followed my every move so that he could catch my mistakes and throw me into a burning hell.
Hell was a very hot place. I saw a mile long track laid with red hot charcoal. I saw naked people walking on the red hot charcoal with bare feet. They screamed and wailed, pleading to jump off the track, but the horned devils would not let them.
I was scared to end up in Hell. In order not to go Hell, I had to be a good Christian boy. The church elders told me, to be a good Christian boy, I had to obey the ten commandments. So I made a great effort. I worshipped the God of Jesus as my god. I did not swear like my classmates. I went to church every Sunday. On Sunday I did not play with my friends because Sunday was a holy day to honor God, not to jump around with my friends. I obeyed my father and mother. I did not kill. I did not steal. I tried not to be envious when my friend had a nice pair of sneakers. I said nice things about my friends.
But I did not worry about the 7th commandment, "Thou shalt not commit adultery," because Mother said I was too young to worry about it.
The problem that I had was the 2nd commandment: Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image…. Thou shalt worship the God of Moses alone. But how could I follow the 2nd commandment when my Japanese teachers took us to the Shinto shrine to bow to the picture of the Japanese emperor whether I wanted to go or not? Mother said that God would understand my problem, but I was still worried of going to Hell.
The strange thing about my childhood was that I was taught that Jesus loved me. I sang, 'Jesus loves me this I know for the bible tells me so…' I recited, 'God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.' But instead of feeling loved by God, I was really afraid of God because I thought that God loved me as long as I obeyed his commandments. There was always that but. B.U.T. God loves you, but if you lie, you will go to Hell. God loves you, but if you do not go to church on Sunday, you will go to Hell… So I lived with fear in my heart while acting happy and thankful outside.
As a teenager, I had a list of things to follow to be a good Christian boy:
I read the bible and prayed every day- kneeling on the floor with my hands clasped.
Went to church on Sundays.
Smiled and was nice to people whether I felt like it or not.
Did not smoke and drink because smoking and drinking would defile my body that was God's temple.
Stayed away from the opposite sex to avoid having any fornicating thoughts.
I followed those rules with utmost seriousness, but a question kept popping up: "I read and hear that those who believe in Jesus and follow his commandments will find joy and peace in their hearts. Then how come I do not find peace and joy in my heart? Instead, my heart feels always uneasy and fearful. Why?"
When I was at college in Austin, Texas, I joined a group called Christian Faith and Life Community. There, about fifty students lived in a dorm-like setting and studied Christian theology and philosophy. I was introduced to the writings of Paul Tillich, Reinhold Niebur, Rudolf Bonhoeffer, Soren Kierkegaard, Albert Camus, and many others. The two years at the Christian Faith and Life Community were the most intellectually stimulating period of my life. There I said, 'Good bye' to my childhood god whose love for me was conditional. I left the community with the knowledge that
God accepted me totally and unconditionally.
God accepted me, not because I was a good person, but because God was love.
God's love was like the sunshine that shone on all the living creatures on the earth. But to experience his warmth, I had to break open my cocoon and walk out to the open meadow and let God's sunshine engulf my being.
When I left the community, the unsmiling childhood god who checked on my every move no longer scared me. The mile long track laid with the red hot charcoal in Hell no longer bothered me. But I still did not find the peace and freedom that came to those who surrendered their lives to God's unconditional love. My head accepted God's unconditional love, but my heart felt uncomfortable and uneasy. I did not know why. I just shoved this uneasy feeling in the dark chamber of unconsciousness and kept myself busy with my work and my family.
On a warm spring day in 1989, I was walking on the hill near our house, feeling fortunate and grateful. I was in my fiftieth. I had survived through WWII under Japan and the Korean War. I had survived the pain of losing three of my loved ones within a span of five years: my father and my two brothers because of the wars. When I was sixteen years old during the Korean War in 1953, my mother put me on a boat heading for America so that I would be safe and get a good education. Alone, without money, with a poor command of English, the first seven years in America was tougher than the first 16 years in Korea. But I persisted. Now I had a wonderful family, good friends, a great place to live, and a wonderful job. What more could I want? I felt I was the luckiest person on the earth.
Then soon afterward, I had a series of fainting spells. I felt numbing pain throughout my entire body from my toes to my head for 24 hours a day. When I got out of the bed in the morning, I found my pillow soaked in sweat. I went to a doctor for check up. After giving me all kinds of fancy tests, the doctor pronounced that he found nothing wrong with me. As I was about to leave his office, he gave me a pamphlet to read after I went home.
On the way out of the doctor's office, I looked at the pamphlet. The title was depression.
Who? Me depressed? A self-made man? Who survived through the two wars in Korea and years of struggle in America to be where I am? Who does he think I am? A weakling? I felt insulted. I threw the pamphlet into a trash can.
Unfortunately, the fainting spells and the numbing pain continued, draining every ounce of my energy in each passing day. Also I felt terribly alone. I saw myself standing all alone on a huge empty desert with the moon and stars looking down at me. I prayed to God to help me from this agony. But God seemed to say, "That's your problem to take care of." Finally I succumbed to see a therapist.
After listening to me, the doctor said, "Your problem is that as a good preacher's son, you ignored all the negative feelings swirling around your heart. You have lived the fifty plus years of your life like a robot driven by your head, and you ignored your feelings. Remember: Man has a head to think and the heart to feel. To lead a full life, you must not only use your head to think but feel the feeling in your heart. To be healed from your depression, you have to let out the negative feelings within you." The doctor's words made sense. I shared my inner most feelings that I had kept to myself since childhood. I shared my childhood concept of god. I shared my feeling toward the church in my childhood that trapped me in the bondage of fear. I shared my deep emotional trauma losing my loved ones during the wars. It was like going to a priest for confession. During one of those sessions, I realized that I had carried a deep guilt and worthlessness for not helping to save my father who was taken away by the communists during the Korean War. I was a 14 year old boy then. I just stood and saw Father taken away. When I recalled the scene, I started to cry aloud asking Father for forgiveness. My crying turned to a groan. The therapist kept handing me a tissue after tissue, letting me cry and groan. After a while, my groaning and crying stopped. I sensed something strange in my heart. For the first time since childhood, I felt the peace and freedom that I had never thought possible to experience in this world.
In the doctor's office, I experienced God's amazing grace. This happened in 1990. This peace and freedom are still within me to this day -2013.
As John Newton, a slave trader, who experienced God's grace in a stormy sea, and later wrote the lyric of the hymn, Amazing Grace, I can say,
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that gave me a new life. I was once lost, but now I am found. Was blind, but now I see.
Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come. 'Tis grace that brought me safe thus far. And grace will lead me home.

Product details
The Blaze Classic is a compact and stylish freestanding fireplace. It's similar to the Blaze Choice model, but slightly smaller.
The Blaze Cottage fireplace warms an area of approximately 120 square metres and has a top-mounted flue.
Like all our fireplaces, the Blaze Cottage includes a double combustion wood-burning chamber that's more than twice as efficient as an open fireplace.
The system uses separate flows of preheated air, creating two simultaneous combustion zones and resulting in higher combustion temperatures. This results in more efficient burning of wood, heating your home with less fuel and minimising harmful emissions.
Air flow to the combustion chamber can be adjusted, making it possible to turn the heat level up or down, and the unit's insulated pyro-glass window provides a beautiful view of the flames, without exposing viewers to smoke or sparks.

Manhunt: UNABOMBER Season 1 Episode 4 Review: Publish or PerishCarissa Pavlica at . Updated at .
I'm getting the feeling there is an agenda to this series, but I'm not quite sure what it is.
On Manhunt: UNABOMBER Season 1 Episode 4, not only did the FBI continue to look like jerks, but historically polarizing figure Janet Reno was a sweetheart in comparison.
If the entirety of the UNABOM case was run like we're seeing in the series, it's no wonder Ted Kaczynski successfully sent as many package bombs as he ultimately did.
It doesn't seem like the person making the most sense should be the Unabomber, right?
But listening to snippets of his manifesto makes more sense than most of what comes out of the mouths of the FBI personnel working with Jim Fitzgerald.
There are so many poor decisions made, it's kind of embarrassing.
And as if that's not enough, we had to suffer through the return of Fitz's wife.
There isn't a storyline more unsympathetic than that of the wife who thinks she's been left behind for her husband's job when said husband's job is saving the lives of others.
I agree that it would be damned difficult to be with a man who had two wives, you and his work, but when someone is in law enforcement, they're on the job all the time.
They're going to work closely with specialists of all sorts, and they'll be male, female and anything in between. They'll be young and old, and if you don't have the stomach for it, you better not go to their place of work.
Ellie's sudden appearance, tagging along to the office and sizing up what she considered competition for Fitz's affections didn't make an already stressful time any easier for anyone. She merely embarrassed herself.
Fitz's confidence is already shaken. He doesn't have the support for his work from his superiors. When the phone rang and Ackerman told him to find a plausible theory to take into the office for his discussion with Janet Reno, I wouldn't have blamed him if Fitz had told Ackerman to pound salt.
It's hard to understand why Fitz was under pressure for Cole's mistake. Cole was the one pushing the Nathan R. angle when he had absolutely no proof it was even a solid clue.
Additionally, he was bound and determined to link that non-clue to everything Fitz provided as his way to show superiority over the young man. Ackerman should have been browbeating Cole on the phone, not Fitz.
If the two men had given honest support to Fitz, he might have been able to do a lot more with his forensic linguistics option than he had already done. As it was, it was what would put away Ted Kaczynski.
Ackerman decided to use a two-pronged approach of his own making, using a fly-by-night theory they came up with in less than 29 minutes because of Cole. What did they think was going to happen?
And why did Janet Reno have her desk full of all of the dud reports so soon after learning the UNABOM surveillance was a failure? Talk about piling on the propaganda a little too thickly.
Equally as thick (but using a different definition of the word) was sending Fitz home before phase two of the two pronged approach even had time to materialize.
What was the point of allowing for the manifesto to be published or the linguistics to be used if Fitz was being punished before anyone had time to call into the hotline?
Surely, these ridiculous plot points are going to stop popping up like weeds once we get to the good stuff with Kaczynski, right?
I can't believe this is how the case unfolded. Every fiber of my being says the drama has been written for the series terribly, and a beautiful opportunity was missed to make this something very special.
Am I the only one who is spotting these indiscretions? What feels like character assassination across the FBI, a purpose beyond the mere sharing of case details and perhaps a propping up of characters and theories that might not have otherwise been expected.
Poor Fitz made a call about publishing the manifesto and was right AGAIN. It worked. It wasn't going to be an overnight solution. I'm reading the manifesto, and you can't do it in one sitting. Kudos to Linda for recognizing it so quickly and calling who I assume is her husband to give him the head's up.
I'm looking forward to seeing Mark Duplass. He's always a bright spot. I hope they didn't edit most of him out.
I'm ready for the next phase of this to begin. Let's get moving on Kaczynski and get talking already!
What about you? Is this dragging out too long?
Did you expect more of the man behind the bombing than we're getting so far from an eight-episode production?

One of the components of the Uniform Bar Exam (and most state bar exams) is the Multistate Performance Test (MPT). The test is a closed universe test (you don't have to know any law), that allows you to demonstrate how well you can perform like a lawyer. It is a deceptively challenging task – and most examinees don't respect how dificult it is, until it is too late to master the necessary skills.
You have the opportunity to change that!
For the next 2 Saturdays (June 1 & June 8), from 2:00 – 5:00, Academic Success is offering an extended MPT workshop. We'll tackle three MPTs over the two weekends. You'll be exposed to the most common tasks (letters, memos, and litigation documents) and at least one uncommon task (drafting interrogatories, writing a will, reviewing a contract or a policy for a customer).
There is homework for the first workshop – a first draft of the March v. Betts MPT (assigned on Friday to the students who are studying for the July bar exam). Let me know if you need a copy.
Sign up here to let me know you're coming (or to let me know the dates don't work for you, but you would be interested at a different time).
In addition to the Extended MPT Workshop, we'll be starting an MPT-of-the-month club. Stay tuned for details!

BERLIN — John Demjanjuk of Seven Hills, Ohio, born Ivan Demjanjuk in Ukraine in 1920, arrived in Munich Tuesday morning to face accusations of crimes committed as a Nazi death-camp guard. Mr. Demjanjuk was deported for the second time by the United States on Monday. The first time was 23 years ago, and he was bound for worldwide notoriety, accused of being the unfathomably cruel "Ivan the Terrible of Treblinka," one of the Holocaust's most infamous sadists. He was convicted and sentenced to death in Israel, before new evidence won him a reprieve and eventually a trip back to the United States and the return of his stripped citizenship.
But the wheels of justice began to grind again, and the whole process has repeated itself step by step. Monday night, a frailer Mr. Demjanjuk, now 89 and once again stateless, boarded a special medically equipped airplane bound for Germany, where he is accused of being an accessory in the murder of 29,000 Jews while working as a guard at the Sobibor death camp in eastern Poland.
Investigators say that the documentary evidence is strong and that they will be able to prove that Mr. Demjanjuk was a living cog in a killing factory, where some 250,000 people were put to death in just one and a half years of operation. His son, John Demjanjuk Jr., says that his father, who has bone-marrow and kidney diseases, is being hounded by the United States Justice Department's Office of Special Investigations and German prosecutors in an inhumane fashion.
Mr. Demjanjuk's guilt will be decided in a Munich courtroom, assuming he lives long enough and is deemed fit to stand trial. But throughout the recent months of courtroom battles over appeals and stays of deportation, the gulf between the enormity of the crimes Mr. Demjanjuk is accused of and the frail old man he is now has grown more apparent.
Ultimately Mr. Demjanjuk's advanced age and poor health serve as reminders, regardless of the outcome in court, of how the living memory of the crimes committed during World War II is on the verge of disappearing. Mr. Demjanjuk's case might well be the last major war crimes trial in Germany, marking the end of an era that began in Nuremberg in 1945.Continue reading the main story
Thomas Blatt, 82, who was a prisoner at Sobibor at the same time Mr. Demjanjuk has been accused of having worked there as a guard, said the trial itself was more important than meting out any punishment. "I don't care if he is released; I do care about his testimony," said Mr. Blatt, who now lives in California and has written two books about his experiences. "There's many people right now who say the Holocaust never happened."
Mr. Blatt said he did not remember Mr. Demjanjuk from Sobibor, but he pointed out that he also could not recall the faces of his parents who were killed at the death camp along with his younger brother. Mr. Blatt was one of the few prisoners to escape Sobibor, in an uprising there in October 1943.
Mr. Demjanjuk was a soldier in the Soviet Army, fighting against the Germans, until he was captured in the Crimea in 1942. Mr. Demjanjuk says he spent most of the remainder of the war as a prisoner. But according to prosecutors, he went to an SS training camp in Trawniki, Poland, where foreign nationals were trained to take part in the Holocaust.
After the war, Mr. Demjanjuk moved to the United States, where he became an autoworker and raised a family. But in 1977, several Holocaust survivors identified him as Ivan the Terrible.
Mr. Demjanjuk was convicted and sentenced to death by an Israeli court in 1988.
But the conviction was overturned in 1993, and he was freed by Israel's Supreme Court after evidence surfaced suggesting that another man was most likely Ivan the Terrible. An identity card from Trawniki indicates that Mr. Demjanjuk was sent to serve at Sobibor.
His family has maintained his innocence throughout the three-decade legal odyssey. "Now at the age of 89, when alleged witnesses are now dead, he's faced with having to defend himself again, when with the pain and suffering he's no longer capable," his son said on Monday in a telephone interview. "You would have thought that after the mistake they made in nearly sending him to the gallows, they would have just let this go."
The United States Supreme Court declined to hear Mr. Demjanjuk's latest appeal last week, and a Berlin court declined an appeal on Monday.
"The only reason not to put someone like Demjanjuk on trial is if he is not capable to stand trial," said Cornelius Nestler, a professor of criminal law at the University of Cologne, who is advising possible co-plaintiffs in the case. "I think in the same way that the grief of the people who left their parents, very often their whole family, in Sobibor will not be over until their death, the responsibility of the people who did it will not be over until they're dead."Continue reading the main story
