A mediation as defined in the dictionary is negotiations conducted by impartial parties to resolve issues. There is a more particular meaning of mediation when you are referring to a case involving personal injury. It involves specific procedures, expectations, and actors. Below is a closer look at probably outcome of mediations and what a person can expect.
Mediation Participants:
Below are relevant members that are normally involved in mediation and what can be expected from these members.
- The Mediator – A personal injury case mediator is someone that is impartial to the case and has obtained a certificate for dispute resolution. In many situations this is a judge or a lawyer that doesn't have an active interest in the case and an understanding of personal injury law. The fee that is paid to the mediator is typically a flat fee that is determined by how many hours are required for the mediation, and then it is divided between the plaintiffs and the defense. A mediator's interest for resolving disputes often results in more mediation work, as their reputation is improved with each successful resolution.
- Counsel for Defendant – This is the lawyer or lawyers that represent the defendant. They generally have a thorough knowledge in the aspects of the case and will often lead in opening arguments that are in the best interests of the defendant. They also take part in the negotiation process for settlements the defendant may be entitled to.
- Insurance Adjuster or Carrier for Defendant – A representative (adjustor) for the defendant's insurance company will represent those that are insured. In some cases the defendant attends this part of the mediation and in some situations they do not. The adjuster will usually attend, but not always. They usually have the last say on the amount of settlement that is to be offered, and they are also in charge of accepting a demand for a settlement.
- Counsel for Plaintiff – This is a personal injury lawyer that represents you the plaintiff. They are normally well informed on all aspects of the case and they present the defense with a short opening presentation pertaining to the strong points of your case. They also usually lead negotiations for the settlement and then will defer this to you.
- Plaintiff – This refers to the individual or their legal representative that brought the claim about. Legally, the plaintiff has the last word in determinations that are made for amounts that are demanded, as well as determinations to accept settlement amounts.
What to Expect in Mediation
Below is a step-by-step explanation of the usual mediation process.
- The parties involved enter the room – Both the defendant's and plaintiff's sides go into a conference room and all sit on opposite sides of a conference table, with the mediator sitting at the head of the table.
- The process of mediation is explained – About ten minutes are taken by the mediator to explain the mediation process. An attempt is also made to bring about a favorable settlement environment by speaking on each of the parties being in attendance on good faith to obtain a resolution. As encouragement to reach a settlement, the mediator may also explain the benefits of reaching a settlement and the uncertainties involved with going to trial.
- Case is presented by plaintiff's counsel – The plaintiff's attorney is invited by the mediator to present a presentation of the strong points of the case. This process can last only five minutes or it can take as long as two hours. While they may attend, the client does not participate in this process.
- Case is presented by defendant's counsel – Next, the defendant's counsel is given an opportunity to present the strong points of their case and answer any disputes of the plaintiff. They generally also highlight the fact that each party is in attendance on good faith. This process can last anywhere from a few minutes to about one hour. While they may attend, the defendant does not participate in this process.
- Parties of the case separate – At this point the mediator will request that each of the parties be separated into different conference rooms. While this normally happens prior to the opening demand, it can also occur after.
- Opening demand is presented – The initial opening demand (opening settlement offer) is made by the plaintiff's counsel.
- Mediation starts – The initial demand is taken to the defense counsel by the mediator where the demands are discussed and a counter-offer is usually made. The counter-offer is then taken to the plaintiff by the mediator. This process is continued and in some situations only lasts about 30 minutes, whereas other situations can take several days.
- Conclusion of negotiations – At this point an agreed number for a settlement is reached or the mediation will end with no settlement number being agreed on.
- Documents for settlement are written – The mediator presents documents for both sides to sign when terms of a settlement have been reached. This process usually take around 30 minutes.
- Claims are dropped or settlement funds are distributed – The settlement documents normally specify a specific timeline for the funds of a settlement to be transferred. Documents are also signed by the plaintiff that releases the defendant of any potential liability. The timeline will usually range from as little as 15 days or as much as 60 days.
This is just an idea of what can be expected during the mediation of a personal injury case, as the uniqueness of a case can cause the mediation process to be significantly different.

One of Governor Steve Beshear's main priorities is once again making its way throughKentucky's General Assembly. A bill sponsored by state Representative Jeff Greer would gradually raise the school dropout age from 16 to 18 by 2017.
The bill has been received very well in the Democratic-controlled House in the past two session. But the state Senate has killed the bill each time, saying it doesn't account for extra expenses or provide alternative means of education.
The governor signaled his favorability toward technical education as an alternative in his state of the Commonwealth address. But Greer told the House Education Committee that he believes raising the dropout age and dealing with technical education should be separate issues.
"In previous session there have been provisions for alternative programs and career and technical education in the graduation bill," he said. "We recognize the need for improvement in both programs but we feel they can and should be handled separately from this graduation bill."
The committee overwhelming passed the bill to the House floor for a vote. Only one member, Bowling Green Representative Jim Decesare voted against the measure.
First Lady Jane Beshear told the committee that passing the bill would help attract better businesses to the commonwealth and create more opportunities for Kentuckians.
"If we want our children to be able to realize their potential and take advantage of opportunities," she said. "And for this commonwealth to take advantage of the opportunities of the types of businesses that improve the future everyone, then we need to make sure our children have every opportunity to be successful."

What Are The Right Food Quantities for Bulimia Recovery?
When starting with bulimia recovery, it's very hard to know what quantities we should eat. I've been there and I am sure you can relate to that too.
This is actually absolutely normal as your hunger and satiety sensations are not used to be experienced 'normally' anymore. It's then very difficult to know how much we should eat.

Anthony Gregg Wins World Poker Tour Parx Open Poker ClassicYoung Pro Captures $416,127 For First Major Title |
Anthony Gregg has won the inaugural WPT Parx Open Poker Classic main event. The young pro, known as "wwwBTHEREcom" online, captured $416,127 and 1,260 POY points for topping the 500 player field at the first ever WPT main event held in Pennsylvania, held at Parx Casino in Bensalem, just outside of Philadelphia.
This was Gregg's first live tournament title, and it increased his total lifetime tournament earnings to more than $3.5 million.
Gregg had some star power in his rooting section, with the most decorated Olympic champion ever, Michael Phelps, sweating his fellow Maryland native as the final table played out. Once Gregg had secured the title, Phelps tweeted:
Nice work
@wwwbtherecom !!— Michael Phelps (@MichaelPhelps) August 16, 2012
After four days of play in the $3,500 buy-in no-limit hold'em championship event, Gregg had entered the final table second in chips behind Stephen "sizzlinbetta" Reynolds. With the elimination of Chris "genius28" Lee on the 129th hand, these two chipleaders to start the day found themselves heads-up for the title with Reynolds holding a roughly 2-to-1 chip lead.
Although he was the shorter stack, Gregg was far from short with 66 big blinds to start heads-up play. Because both players were so deep, play lasted for 108 more hands before a winner was determined. Gregg slowly chipped away at the lead, before finding the key double-up with 99 against Reynolds A5 to pull roughly even.
From there Gregg won a number of sizable pots to take the lead, finishing things off when he called a 14 big-blind shove from Reynolds with K9. Reynolds was ahead with the A4, but the board ran out KQ7Q10 to send the pot and the title to Gregg.
This was Gregg's fourth final table of the year, and as a result of his consistent success he has moved into fifth place in the Card Player Player of the Year race with 2,984 points and $1,004,155 in year-to-date earnings. Gregg's other major scores this year include a sixth-place finish in the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure main event, a third-place finish in the European Poker Tour Grand Final High Roller, and a fourth-place finish in the inaugural World Series of Poker four-max no-limit hold'em event.
Here is a look at the payouts and Player of the Year points awarded at this final table:
Place | Player | Earnings | POY Points |
1 | Anthony Gregg | $416,127 | 1260 |
2 | Stephen Reynolds | $244,877 | 1050 |
3 | Chris Lee | $158,450 | 840 |
4 | Larry Sharp | $108,034 | 630 |
5 | Christopher Vandeursen | $76,824 | 525 |
6 | Andre Nyffeler | $61,619 | 420 |
7 | Joseph Couden | $47,215 | 315 |
8 | Joseph Wertz | $33,611 | 210 |
9 | Tommy Miller | $24,008 | 105 |

Same Great CAD Tips - Made Easier
1 Aug, 2008 By: Nancy Spurling JohnsonCadalyst's library of AutoCAD customization code has a new look and new, interactive features that make it better than ever.
You live and breathe AutoCAD, that ubiquitous solution that's been powering the world of computer-aided design since 1983. As all-encompassing as the software might be, some users believe that the real power lies in the ability to use customized code — AutoLISP or Visual Basic, among others — to customize features and automate routines.
Almost since the dawn of the AutoCAD age, Cadalyst's monthly "Hot Tip Harry" column has delivered AutoCAD customization tips developed by our readers — nearly 1,800 tips to date! In the early days, every character of code was printed on the numerous magazine pages occupied by the popular column. Later, Harry's commentary stayed in the magazine while his code moved to a CompuServe bulletin board. Then Cadalyst launched Get the Code!, a library of code dating back to 1992, and readers headed to that Web site in droves to download the monthly batches of tips.
As popular as Get the Code! has been, it always had significant drawbacks. Users had to read Harry's tip descriptions and instructions in one place, then look for the corresponding code in another. If you sought an existing routine in the code database to address a specific challenge, the Search function fell woefully short. Google couldn't scope out the site either. If you did find a tip of interest, you had to download and sort through an entire month's batch to get what you needed. Frustration was common.
Introducing Cadalyst's CAD Tips
To the rescue comes our brand new site, Cadalyst CAD Tips. CAD Tips is the Internet's largest library of AutoLISP and VBA custom programming code and hatch patterns for AutoCAD. The new CAD Tips site brings much-needed
user-friendly features to the code database, including improved Search and Browse as well as interactive Comment and Tag functionalities. Use the new Search to locate tips by tip number, keyword, author, or date published.
For you programmers, the Search even checks for matching content inside code files. All tips are categorized according to their specific uses, which you'll love when you use Browse Tips by Category. Users who register can tag tips to identify and organize your own favorites, rate tips, share feedback about tips, and upload modified versions of code files.
Possibly the best part is that now each tip — and its corresponding code file download, description, instructions, rating, and comments — are together in one place, so you can grab what you need without delay and put it to work.
We realize some of you became accustomed, even attached, to the old Get the Code! site and the monthly batches of new code published there. We're working on ways to meet your needs, so keep your eye on the CAD Tips home page for news about that. In the meantime, take a look around the new site. Give it a chance, and I'm convinced you'll like what you see.
As our new site takes off, I would like to acknowledge the contributions of Bill Kramer, the Cadalyst contributing editor who masquerades as Hot Tip Harry, and Brian Benton, CAD user, blogger, and Cadalyst reader and Tip Patrol member. This site wouldn't be the same without their involvement.
Coming soon, we'll expand CAD Tips to include shortcuts, reminders, workarounds, code, and other tips for AutoCAD and other CAD software from Cadalyst's popular Tips & Tools Weekly free e-newsletter. (Sign up at www.cadalyst.com/newsletters.)
I hope you'll take a minute to send me your feedback — positive or otherwise — about Cadalyst's CAD Tips. This change is all about meeting the needs of you, our tip fans.
AutoCAD Tips!
In her easy-to-follow, friendly style, long-time Cadalyst contributing editor and Autodesk Technical Evangelist Lynn Allen guides you through a new feature or time-saving trick in every episode of her popular AutoCAD video tips. Subscribe to the free Cadalyst Video Picks newsletter and we'll notify you every time a new video tip is published. All exclusively from Cadalyst! |

You are in: Other Sports: Boat Race 2002 |
Friday, 15 March, 2002, 18:19 GMT
Anniversary action
BBC Sport Online leafs through the archives to find some memorable University Boat Races of years gone by, with Oxford to the fore.
1992 | 1987 | 1952 | 1937 | 1912 | 1877
Oxford gave Cambridge the advantage of the long Surrey bend so that they could counter any fast start and in the early stages the gamble paid off.
The Dark Blues led before Cambridge battled back and nosed ahead as the crews passed Hammersmith Bridge. In a battle of the coxes, Oxford's Elizabeth Chick was warned for steering too close to Cambridge, who were coxed by the oldest competitior in the history of the race - 38-year-old Andy Probert. Chick's aggresive attitude paid dividends, Oxford fought their way back into the race and the crew's strength finally told over Cambridge's technique. They came home one-and-a-quarter lengths in front for their 18th win in 17 years. It proved to be their last win of the 20th century.
Dan Topolski enjoyed an illustrious and colourful Boat Race career, coaching Oxford to 10 successive victories from 1976.
That run came to an end in 1986, and, most notably, Oxford oarsman Rick Ross wanted revenge. Ross returned the following year with members of the US national rowing team enrolling as students. However, disagreements over training methods and crew selection caused a bitter clash between the Oxford president Donald MacDonald and the American oarsmen.
Equality reigns supreme and as the cracks in squad morale developed into deep fissures, the American contingent pulled out six weeks before the race.
However, Topolski remarkably moulded an inexperienced reserve crew into a winning team. MacDonald, the oldest ever oarsman in the event at 31 years and three months, guided his crew home four lengths in front.
In a blizzard, Oxford rowed from behind all the way round the outside of the huge Barnes bend - something that has never happened before or since.
Cambridge, on the Middlesex station, took the early initiative and led by two-thirds of a length at the Mile Post. That was the biggest racing margin between the two crews over the four-and-a-quarter miles, and by the Harrods Depositry prior to Hammersmith Bridge, Oxford had drawn level. Having won only three times in the previous 22 years, Christopher Davidge stroked Oxford round the outside to win the race in a time of 20 minutes 23 seconds. The winning distance of a just six feet was the closest in the history of the race and was matched by Oxford's winning crew in 1980.
The race was an exhibition of aggressive coxing and each crew had held the lead before they passed under Hammersmith Bridge level.
Cambridge, who never fell below a rate of 33, upped the tempo to 37 after passing Chiswick Eyot in an effort to counter an Oxford move. However, despite Cambridge's best efforts they were unable to make up the deficit and Oxford won for the first time in 14 years. The slowest race of the last century came a decade and four outings later when Cambridge won easily in a time of 23 minutes and one second.
It remains the only occasion 90 years on.
History suggests that both crews sunk on 30 March, however Oxford would question that verdict. Following Cambridge's sinking, the Dark Blues rowed to the banks of the Thames and beached their boat in order to empty it of water. Despite restarting, the umpire insisted they had ceased to particiape and duly cancelled the race. There was no repeat of the farcical scenes on the following day - April Fool's Day - and Oxford won by six lengths.
After 24 minutes and eight seconds, Oxford and Cambridge crossed the line together - or so legend has it.
With the finishing line in sight Oxford, with a lead of five lengths, broke an oar. Cambridge bore down on their opponents, and at the line, John Phelps, the old waterman employed as the finishing judge, complained to the race umpire that he could not split the teams. The alternative view is that "Honest John", who later vanished, announced "Dead heat to Oxford by four feet," after being woken up and asked the result. Whatever the truth, it proved to be the last time in the race that there was no finishing post at Mortlake. |

Anjuya's predictable answer was to turn round, smile reassuringly, and wiggle a hand in the air. This, we now understood, meant "To see something unexpected".
Our bulbous white Ambassador car had just braked sharply and turned off the neglected country road we were following from scruffy village to forgotten town, crossing rural Tamil Nadu in south India. We bumped along a red dirt-track, skirted a shimmering lake and stopped at the edge of a dark green forest. Anjuya pointed to an opening, guarded by two enormous clay horses' heads.
Within were thousands more horses. A little smaller than life-sized and looking inwards, they lined a cool, shaded avenue slicing through the tamarind and Indian oak trees. Each animal was different: some looked haughty and camel-like; others had fiery expressions and wild manes, or mouths open in mocking laughter. Many had been broken, their heads, legs and torsos strewn on the forest floor as in the aftermath of a terrible battle.
Wide-eyed, we walked down the avenue for perhaps half a kilometre. It was like being dignitaries, reviewing a guard of honour in Narnia. Monkeys swung silently in the trees, which formed a canopy over us. At the end, in a clearing, were burnt-out incense sticks and offerings of food to a pantheon of gods and demons, their statues blackened with oil and garlanded with dead flowers. Bewildered and, despite the heat, shivering in the eerie atmosphere, we began the long march back to Anjuya and the car.
It was only next day, in Madurai, quizzing an English-speaking guide whose grandmother hailed from this area, that we began to make any sense of what we had seen. This was the Sacred Grove of Elangudi Patty - sacred, that is, to the villagers of nearby Namana Shamudhram who for centuries have worshipped a god called Ayyanar, who manifests himself in equine form and exorcises devils.
Weird experiences like this, we concluded, are the reward for escaping the tyranny of the guidebook to explore beyond the bounds they set.
My wife Hennie and I, incorrigible travellers in the early 1980s, spent months travelling India on a shoestring, wearing backpacks and baggy cotton trousers. New careers, responsibilities and three children later, a rare opportunity occurred recently for us to return, albeit for little more than a week.
How to rediscover the magic of India? Certainly not, we both agreed, on the luxury lake-palace and British Raj-nostalgia circuit, which some tour operators mistake for quintessential India. Rather, we would mosey through Tamil Nadu in the less-visited south, starting with a direct flight from Heathrow to Chennai (as Madras was renamed last year).
We spilled straight into a city clogged with decrepit buses, auto-rickshaws whining like bumble-bees, beggars, and herds of white Ambassador cars, which curiously resemble the nonchalant humped cows whose leisurely right it is to disrupt the already chaotic traffic. We bathed in rivers of sari- and dhoti-clad people and inhaled the scents of sandalwood, spices and sewage. Stair-rods of pollution streaked a skyline of temples and pylons. Boys played scratch cricket on patches of scrub. We ate masala dosas (pancakes stuffed with spicy potato) on the platform of Madras Egmore station. A true munch down memory lane.
Tiruchirappalli (aka Trichy - most places in Tamil Nadu have two names these days) was an inspired choice as our first stop. But the first-class tickets were a mistake. We soon abandoned our chilly, over-air-conditioned and lifeless first-class carriage for the windowless third class beloved of old. For much of the six-hour journey we sat on the steps of an open door, watching India flick by and learning priceless facts from Moraji, a civil-engineering student who befriended us.
"We are now crossing the second widest bridge in Tamil Nadu"; "This town has the fourth - no, fifth - highest radio transmitter in south India"; and "Trichy airport is the seventh oldest in all of India," Moraji announced as we screeched into Tiruchirappalli Junction station. We discovered that the town also boasts a "Stalin's barber" and a "Mother Teresa's Computers" shop, in a bizarre bazaar sprawling round the Rock Fort temple.
In thanks for a bunch of bananas, the resident temple elephant shampooed us with its mucus - a traditional blessing. Then we joined thousands of barefoot devotees, climbing a tunnel of 437 steps cut into the massive granite outcrop topped by a shrine to Shiva. "Eagles" (actually buzzards) wheeled round the summit.
We looked out over the many bathing ghats on the river Cauvery, and the vast Sri Rangathaswamy Temple Complex where 5,000 Brahmins live among the courtyards, the shrines to Vishnu, and the gopuras - towering pyramid gateways adorned with millions of red and blue gods and demons.
"Sriman Narayana, Saranam, Saranam, Prabasthey, Srimathey Narayanaya Namaha."
A Tannoy system unrelentingly chanted the holy mantra, adoring almighty Vishnu, from the top of the highest gopura. It was still playing in our heads later, at the "Wild West Bar" at Jenney's Residency, our gaudy, three-star-ish hotel where Indian businessmen and the town's yuppies come to drink. In the bar, life-sized mechanical gold-diggers and saloon-bar patrons swing pickaxes and draw their six-shooters.
In the company of cowboys and Indians, we discovered that Black Label beer still tastes, as it always did, of licked envelope.
The next stage of our journey was in the back of our Ambassador, heads reposing against starched antimacassars. The civilised way to travel India, and a new experience for us. Our fate was in the hands of Anjuya, as we struck out across the flat plains of the Cauvery Delta, south India's rice basket for more than 2,000 years.
The river splinters into myriad tributaries and glimmering irrigation canals, amid paddies as green as croquet lawns and speckled with white ibises. Electric-blue kingfishers flashed by. Further from the water sources were patches of post-harvest buff which would remain dry till the July monsoons. Wooden carts pulled by oxen with painted horns made painfully slow progress from paddy to village. By the roadside, women flayed grain from husk, sweeping up mountainous piles of each.
We were on our way to visit Gangakondacholapuran, a colossal temple built 1,000 years ago in the times of the Chola kings. Its gopuras are visible for miles around, just as the great Gothic cathedrals must have overwhelmed the landscape of medieval Europe.
A wizened old guide, his back bent almost to a right angle from years working in the paddies, showed us round the temple. "Stonehenge," he said simply, when we told him we lived in Wiltshire. He made no other reference to Britain, except to peer through cracked spectacles and enquire, as we climbed back into our car: "From which airport did you fly to India - Heathrow or Gatwick?"
Tanjore (Thanjavur), the ancient Chola capital where we based ourselves for a couple of days, is dominated by the 13-storey Brihadishwara temple. Its crown is an 18-ton granite dome hauled into place in AD1010, on a ramp of earth 7km long. Floodlit on a balmy night, it was humming with life as worshippers in their hundreds draped garlands of marigolds round the necks of statues, and lit sandalwood and incense sticks. India at its most romantic.
However, it was meandering through rural India, something never within our sights as backpackers, that produced the real surprises of the trip. How, without a car and canny driver, would we ever have stumbled on Elangudi Patty and its haunted horses? We had simply requested to be taken on a circuitous route through the backwaters of Tamil Nadu, on the drive from Tanjore to Madurai, our final destination.
In teeming Madurai we were well back on the tourist trail, fighting our way through bullock carts, rickshaws and thousands of pilgrims to the great temple of Meenakshi, one of the holiest sites in India.
At the temple, a Brahmin priest explained: "This place is a tirtha, a crossing place between the sacred and the profane. Whoever stands here, crosses from the human world into the world of the spirit."
Two flights and 24 hours later, back in the human world of Wiltshire, we remembered his words.

Climb the White Mountains
To accommodate that desire to take action in the fight against cancer at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Norris Cotton Cancer Center, the idea of having a series of events–not held in July but similar in passion to the signature Prouty-–was born. REACH FOR THE PEAKS, our mountaineering program, is now the newest addition to The Prouty Challenge event series—athletic events, like The Prouty—which bring people together to take action in the fight against cancer. The 2012 Reach for the Peaks climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro kicked off our hike/climb/mountaineering program with a bang and was a WONDERFUL success. In September 2013 we did a hike up Mt. Moosilauke—our climb to conquer breast cancer—and it too, was successful. Both Kilimanjaro and Moosilauke have been successes not only as fundraisers for Norris Cotton Cancer Center, but as meaningful experiences.
For mountains are a special place, combining beauty, majesty, seclusion, and simple elevation to produce a matchless, near spiritual experience. It got us thinking about how to bring the Prouty mountaineering program to more people—to bring it to all of New Hampshire—and to bring a very special experience to those who want to stand up and DO something to fight cancer.
Hiking the 4,000 footers of New Hampshire is a rite of passage for every die-hard New England outdoorsperson, and many more commuters from all over the Northeast. It seemed like a natural to create a program that truly was about New England mountaineering and about raising money for northern New England's only Comprehensive Cancer Center as designated by the National Institute of Health. This feat entails 48 climbs up 48 beautiful mountains. Many of the peaks can be combined in loop hikes or traverses and every single one can be climbed in a day by a competent hiker. All kinds of trails exist in the Whites, from wide-open, gentle cart paths to true alpine scrambles with steep rock slabs and lots of exposure. This is hiking where it's beautiful, sometimes challenging, and always a hike for a reason.
Season and Gear
By June, most trails (with the exception of some in the Presidential Range) will usually be snow- and ice-free. Beware of fierce black flies before July, especially at lower elevations. By late October trails may be icing back up, but it's not uncommon to be able to hike into November on dry summits. You can always climb these mountains in the winter, too – but only once you've had proper instruction and experience in winter hiking and mountaineering, including travel on snow and ice, and are accustomed to hiking in proper winter equipment, including snowshoes, traction (e.g. Microspikes) and crampons. ANY month of the year can bring cold temperatures, howling winds and rain- and snowstorms to the mountains, so always be prepared with rain gear, warm layers, plenty of water and food, a headlamp or flashlight, a map, a navigational, and an escape route in mind.

"This tree removes ancient-386-CPUs support and thus zaps quite a bit of complexity [...] which complexity has plagued us with extra work whenever we wanted to change SMP primitives, for years. Unfortunately there's a nostalgic cost: your old original 386 DX33 system from early 1991 won't be able to boot modern Linux kernels anymore. Sniff. I'm not sentimental. Good riddance." Almost 21 years of support for a professor. Not bad.

flooding -- A therapeutic technique for treating phobias in which the patient is exposed to painful memories or frightening stimuli until he or she ceases to be anxious.
I was flooded recently with a memory. A memory locked away so tightly that I've fought tooth and nail to keep it so.
In this memory, I am brutalized by a monster, but then handed off to a fixer. For years I have pitied this woman for being trapped in a terrible situation. But this time as I rode the memory through, I realized some important distinctions. She knew what he was doing to me in the other room. She knew her role as the fixer -- the aid to the cover-up. She made excuses for his actions. She led me to believe she was compassionate and caring, but her true purpose was to clean up his mess, and she did it willingly.
Flooded. Memories rushing over me like Sandy rushing through the northeast. Pain and tears and fear and confusion. Nowhere to safely land in this plethora of emotions.
So I land where I usually do: first on my therapist's couch, sobbing into a sodden tissue and apologizing for wasting her time while I just sit and cry. Then on my own couch as I try to recount the events of the day to my husband and apologize for everything I failed to accomplish -- dinner and laundry and errands.
But this time, this time is different somehow. I am angry. And I never get angry. I am angry that these horrific people where part of my childhood. I am angry that I wasn't protected from them. I am angry that I am still held responsible by some people for what was done TO me. I am angry, and I am not sorry that I am angry.
I am not going to stop being angry until I feel like it. Because I have been flooded long enough.

how do the toyota's seats fold down?Originally Posted by tylersooner View Post
nice thing about the qx.....it has a rear independent suspension so the second and third row seats fold completely flat ...
makes a huge cargo area....
Go with the Infiniti.
It has the most "Christmas tree hauling capacity" in its class
The Toyotas seats fold completely down. My wife's Armada had AC issues for the back seat passengers. The tech said it was operating as designed but went as far as saying the design was inferior to the chevy, gmc and toyota. He suggested that we even put one of the window sunshades in the front window to help with temperature control and to prevent the leather seats from cracking. He claimed that there had been numerous cases of the seats falling apart due to the heat.

It had some pretty cool features though. Also, it seems like i remember there being some class action lawsuit against Nissan for misrepresenting the mileage. Seems like my partner's wife got around 9 in the city.

We have had a GL and ML and like the new Infiniti a lot better. More options and more space along with a better looking interior. At least that is like our opinion, man.

High Contrast Review!
My good friend Sam Kulla's in town for a visit. He's passing through town after some crazy travels through China, Korea, and all over Europe. Whenever we hang out, we end up doing all kinds of fun collaborative work. He's started up a really great art and literature site called the High Contrast Review that's soon to have a yearly print edition. While we were hanging out yesterday, I drew over one of Sam's photo's and turned it into an ad of sorts for The High Contrast Review. Agents from around the globe!

The news that Garsington Opera's tenure at their eponymous manor will end in 2010 means their remaining performances will be treasurable, since this venue has unique charm. But it's not the only reason people go: the fare is notably adventurous, with this year's opener – the company's first foray into the Baroque – being a case in point. Written in 1717 to mark the end of the Venetian carnival season, Vivaldi's L'incoronazione di Dario was performed "with magnificence" at the Teatro S Angelo, with very few revivals since.
David Freeman – who has seized the chance to direct this tale about a disputed royal succession in the magnificence of Garsington – is under no illusions about its quality. "Some of it's terrific, but it's not a perfect work. In terms of storytelling, it's like a Shakespearean comedy where heroic figures get caught in very silly situations that don't add up, so we've had to bend it to make sense – cutting and reordering the arias. It may be technically opera seria, but it's really not serious at all – if you didn't make it funny, you'd be doing it a disservice. This is a comedy for serious people."
Doing it in Garsington, he says, is like doing a show at Shakespeare's Globe, in terms of the available facilities. "I've found with previous productions in Garsington that if you have a big, heavy set, you can't help feeling the garden surrounding it is much more beautiful and seductive, so at first we thought of bringing the garden on stage. But finally we decided to extend the house."
He's keeping the action in Persia, where Vivaldi intended it, but is trading heavily on the usefulness of Shah Reza Pahlavi's East-West allegiances in the Fifties. "If you look at the old photos of him and Queen Soraya, you realise that they based their idea of royalty on the British royal family. One minute the Shah could be extolling 2,500 years of the Peacock Throne, the next looking like somebody who would be perfectly happy in Buckingham Palace. That gives you a lot of possibilities."

Potential Disney Heroines
If I learned anything from Disney's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," just about any classic story can be made into a Disney property when you spiff it up with a little song and dance. So I present to you my ideas for some unused "Princess" characters Disney should look into.

Disney Princess
Well, this started out as a coloring book page, and one thing led to another... Anyway, something about the image just seemed to say, "Drink Coke!". I attempted to rip off the color and style of some old illustrators- I specifically tried to imitate Gil Elvgren's colors. I'm sure he'd be overjoyed.
I may also have altered the costume and design a bit...
