AHL Game Night 4/10: Admirals at Senators
Unbelievably awesome.
Craig Kowalski allowed 1 goal on 30 shots for the victory.
First Period
NOR Keller, (17) , 5:51
NOR Segal, (24) (Jones), 7:47 (PP)
NOR Segal, (25) , 12:25
Second Period
NOR Segal, (26) , 3:22 (SH)
NOR Graddock, (1) (Zingoni), 5:23
NOR Keller, (18) (Lundin), 9:50
BNG Smith, (7) (Hennessy, Bois), 11:07 (SH)
Third Period
Brandon Segal, Justin Keller, and Kowalski were named the game's three stars.
On paper, the Admirals had no business even being competitive in this game. Norfolk had nothing to play for other than pride and the possibility to climb out of the division basement. At the other end of the rink, Binghamton came into this game tied with Philadelphia for the final playoff spot in the division and desperate for points. Norfolk's bottom lines and bottom pairings were riddled with ATO's due to call-ups and injuries. This should have been a cake walk for Binghamton, but just like their last game out against the Penguins, the core of this Admirals team absolutely refuses to lay down.
In my mind, over the past two years Darren Rumble has developed into a hell of a coach. He got several of these young players like Radek Smolenak to start believing in themselves down the stretch of last season, and this season he's instilled a sense of pride in a minor league system that hasn't had any since they were the Atlanta Knights of the IHL.
I think the team tonight also took the guess work out of who you keep and who you let go. All of the top-six forwards and top-four d-men from this game need to be retained, which means Geoff Kinrade needs a contract. With the further development of this clubs young players and the introduction of some new talent like Dana Tyrell, next season is one where the Admirals should legitimately be a playoff team.

text: Kaitlyn Newdorf '13 wins top French student award from Judge Christina Reiss '84 News Home 04.23.13 Kaitlin Newdorf '13, a double major in French and economics with a minor in religious studies, was the 2013 recipient of the Danielle Miller Award, given annually to the top French student by Judge Christina Reiss, a 1984 graduate of Saint Michael's, and a former student of the late French professor Danielle Miller. "Danielle Miller made French come alive for us," said Judge Reiss, at presentation ceremonies held on the Saint Michael's campus April 19. She died young, and "we never got to tell her how meaningful she was." Judge Reiss created the award to honor the professor and because of her belief in the power of knowing a second language. In using other languages, she said, "You have chosen to relate to people on their own terms - you will use your language skills." The judge explained her own use of French in training judges in Tunisia and in a courtroom in Vermont and Arizona. Newdorf, the daughter of Charles and Iris Newdorf of Auburn, NH, was cited for doing multiple research projects in Economics and French that "clearly indicate her intellectual talent and tireless sense of motivation." Inducted into two national honor societies A member of the Saint Michael's Honors Program, Newdorf was inducted into Theta Alpha Kappa, the national honor society for Religion and Theology, and into Omicron Delta Epsilon, the international honor society in economics. She spent the fall semester in 2011 studying in Grenoble, France. Newdorf's presentations at Saint Michael's Academic Symposium 2013 Kaitlyn Newdorf was cited as "a wonderful example of the liberal arts ideal" because of her combination of study and research in three fields. She presented two research projects at the college's Academic Symposium on April 20. Her work in French was titled (translated), "Family and Profession: the drama of women yesterday and today (after Fracoise Sagan and Denise Bombardier)." Her presentation work in economics was titled "The Impact of Malpractice Payouts on the Supply of Physicians with in the United States." In her funded Social Science Summer Research project, Newdorf studied the discrepancy between French and American healthcare expenditures. She presented that research project at the Dean's Reception on the evening of April 20. Newdorf plans to pursue a career in healthcare after earning a graduate degree in public health or economics. She indicated that among her ideal jobs would be one that allows her to continue applying her French in the realm of international health.

FBI Paid Off Wikileaks Insider To Be An Informant: Imagine If It Was The NY Times
from the that's-insane dept
The entire story from Kevin Poulsen at Wired is worth reading, about how Icelandic teen Sigurdur Thordarson was taken under Julian Assange's wing and given a fair amount of autonomy within Wikileaks. The details suggest that Thordarson abused that position in many ways, including setting up a t-shirt sales site, supposedly to benefit Wikileaks, but where all the money went directly to his own bank account. But, that's really minor considering the key point: that the FBI actively worked with and continued to push Thordarson to get more info from Wikileaks, even after he'd left the organization. The DOJ is supposed to have rules about investigations of media properties for a variety of reasons, and paying off an insider seems like it goes way, way beyond what's appropriate.

There's still the possibility that something happened to his friend, and the watch is related to that.

Spoiler for School Days:
Yeah, SD isn't happening. I don't think that station will ever allow a show like SD in that slot again. Especially because Sana is caring, people apologize to each other, discuss their problems, and work things out with each other. Also, considering that there is absolutely no build up or negative changes in any of the character, no motive, and every character seems reasonable, it just seems impossible.
So, here's some actual speculation:
1. Sana attempted suicide
2. Nanaka's uncle is a hitman
3. The grandma hired Nanaka's uncle to burn her house down, because she got into a fight with her mother
4. Hinako is Nanaka's sister, sent away at an early age to be raised, and abandoned after the fire
5. Aoi has been hiding something very important this entire time
6. Syuri has been beaten ever since her mother died, just like her mother used to
7. Syuri's mother died from a beating
If any of these are correct, I'd be shocked. But hey, you never know. Especially since nobody except the producers and developers of the game don't know the plot.

I first thought Sana was trying to hide the fact that he's a cutter, but now I'm not so sure. Nanaka's line before the ominous zoom on the watch was something about how he was enjoying himself with new friends and whatnot.
While it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility it's hiding a scar or something, my guess now would be that something bad happened to one of his new friends and the watch reminds him of that. He mentioned on the phone call to his mom at the end of the episode that he can become stronger because he now has something to protect (in this case, Nanaka). Maybe he feels that he wasn't strong enough before to prevent something bad from happening?
As for who started the fire at Nanaka's house - they seem to be dropping huge hints that it's her uncle, but it all seems way too obvious to me. I do think that her uncle is somewhat right in that the truth won't be pleasant for her - not to say she shouldn't find out, but I suspect he's deliberately keeping the truth from her because he thinks he's protecting her.
Not sure what's up with the twins, although their step-mother is clearly a source of friction there.
Something seems to be up with Asami as well - they certainly focused in on her seeing Syuri cry and that seemed to upset visibly upset her for some reason.
Not sure how the crazy old lady will fit in, although the fact she seems to think Nanaka looks like her dead granddaughter is probably how they'll do it. But even so, all she's done so far is act really creepy and apparently bury animals to try and make the legend of the sakura trees come true. It just seems so out of place compared with everyone else's storylines.

I pretty certain that's what the watch is aiming at, especially after that scene at the pool --- his pause, and reason for leaving it on. Episode 10 looks like it'll deal with the twins --- then after that leaves three episodes left to cover Sana.

All right, time for new speculations:
1. The uncle did NOT set the fire but knows who did it and is keeping quiet in case the REAL killer comes after Nanaka.
2. The REAL killer is the old lady in the home, who will come after Nanaka anyway. (she a real psycho btw)
3. Grandma will come after Nanaka with a chopper while all bloody, forcing Sana to overcome his fear of blood to save Nanaka.
4. In the process get stuck in a fire (sets by old lady, meant for Nanaka) forcing Nanaka to overcome the pyro-phobia to save Sana.
5. Motive for old lady is Nanaka's violin. She's a better player than her grandkid so she did it to kill off the competition. Ironically. the whole family got killed while traveling to a violin competition so she's somewhat responsible to the deaths..
....Or maybe not

I think Sana killed a friend... or saw a friend mentally break down and killed someone, and he in order to do some prevention, he in turn killed that crazy killer friend... that watch was a gift of that friend.

1. Shuri's father gets put in jail for child abuse
2. Nanaka and Sana admit what they've been hiding to eachother, creating an inseperable bond
3. The old lady is jailed and dies in the jail
4. The sakura trees bloom on both hills this year
5. Hinako gets adopted by the teacher, because she is an orphan or something close to it.

Some wild and crazy ideas:
1. Nanaka and Asami switched personalities at a young age (would explain Nanaka's change AND Asami's resemblance to a young Nanaka)
2. Sana tried to kill someone when he was younger (hence the trauma to blood)
3. Shuusuke and Shuri go to a love motel (what was the prankster trying to do; give them new ideas?)
4. Sana is inspired by Shuusuke and Shuri, and tries to hit it off with his own relative, Aoi (He did fancy her while they were younger...)
5. Shuusuke and Shuri's father lose the election; Vice Principal is shown to be a crook... allowing Yuzuki to become the new mayor!
6. Nanaka will try to kill her uncle (with fire the most likely weapon of choice)
7. Anime ends with Nanaka and a saw, Asami and a butcher knive, and Shuusuke/Shuri and a leap from a tall building

1) Perhaps Asami resembles childhood Nanaka (on the outside) because she is trying to become "Mary Sue". She detests her own real personality. She would try to help/comfort others and seek comfort in her own actions (unless she becomes entangled in those strings of ...). Yet I would say that childhood Nanaka and grown up (partially voilent) don't resemble at all. Childhood Nanaka had those qualities because innocent & inexperienced. Asami's outer personality resembles Nanaka because Asami aspires to someday gain those qualities.
7) I still believe that Anime has an happy ending even after that amusing card they played to get some attention.

Grand Central Table
Having just moved from Chicago — where we lived happily in 1,700 square feet — to Paris — where we are quite snug in 500 — I can now fully appreciate the genius of this amazing table. Click through to see the transformation from corner table to full dining table!
Swedish designers Sanna Lindström and Sigrid Strömgren have teamed up to create this space-saver after being inspired by a pop-up map of New York (hence the name, Grand Central).
The top is constructed out of 22 separate pieces that appear to effortlessly expand into one, smooth top dining table. I would love to see this table up close so I could try to figure out how all of the pieces are connected and how easy it is to open and close.
The table was first shown at the D3 Contest (Design Talents IMM COLOGNE) in January 2010 and later at the Milan Furniture show.
No word yet on production or pricing, but as a new small space dweller, I'll be watching carefully for this table to hit the stores!

The Elk River High School football team will have its entire coaching staff back on the sidelines this week, after the district's school board voted last night to reinstate them.
Six coaches were on paid leave in the wake of a hazing incident that also saw nine players disciplined. Even with the reinstatement, the coaches are being disciplined as well -- and will learn what those punishments are in coming days. The school board's only actions Tuesday night were to unanimously approve resolutions calling for six Elk River coaches to be disciplined, including head coach Mike Cross.
Board members would not detail those punishments, citing data privacy laws. But Superintendent Mark Bezek at least answered the big question that was on the minds of the 100 or so people gathered at the meeting.
"All of our coaches -- all of our coaches -- will be on the field this Friday evening for the game," Bezek told the crowd.
That means the coaches will be disciplined in a way that will be marked on their employment file at the Elk River School District, but not in a way that keeps them away from the team any longer. Those coaches are head coach Mike Cross and five assistants: Mike Breyen, Mark Leland, Rick Michalak, Brad Olson, and John Pink.
The actions stem from a hazing incident last month that initially led to the suspension of the entire football program. Nine players were later disciplined, including four who were removed from the team.
Police say players reported being struck or poked by other players with a broom handle on their backsides and legs. No injuries were ever reported and no criminal charges have been filed.
The district has only said that a hazing incident occurred, though Bezek said last night there were indications that some of the players who did the hazing this year had been the recipients of it in previous years.
Bezek also reiterated his belief that the district acted appropriately and he called the parents who first reported the hazing 'courageous.'
"When these things happen, they have to feel confident that when they report that, things are going to happen - we're going to take them seriously," Bezek said. "We have to move very quickly on this piece and do what's right."
The decision to reinstate the coaches pleased Sandy Pink -- she's the wife of assistant coach John Pink, who wasn't allowed to be on the sidelines last week during Elk River's season opening loss.
"He's going to be very happy," Pink said. "He's the quarterback coach and he's a great coach, and I'm happy it's done, it's over. The team can move on, people can move on, the families can move on."
None of the coaches were on hand for last night's meeting, but Bill Hjertstedt, president of the Elk River teachers' union, spoke on their behalf. He said he had no indication that the coaches knew what was happening or were present when the hazing took place.
"I have complete confidence that these coaches adequately supervised the students," Hjertstedt said. "As parents, it's difficult -- nearly impossible -- to know where every teenager is every second of every day."
The district still isn't releasing the report that a lawyer prepared after investigating the hazing allegations, but officials said some parts of that report might become public at a later time.
Officials also said they'll review facilities to see if any physical changes are needed. That's because officials say the wrestling room where the hazing took place was both an easy place to hide in, and a room that had to stay unlocked to comply with fire codes.

"They will probably be back together sometime down the road," a source said. The pair were last spotted looking happy as can be at the American Music Awards last month.
Hayden previously dated pro boxer Wladimir Klitschko for a year and a half.

Area children from 749 needy families will have a happier Christmas this holiday season thanks to the Holiday Bureau.
Area children from 749 needy families will have a happier Christmas this holiday season thanks to the Holiday Bureau.
The longtime Oak Ridge nonprofit organization opened the doors of its warehouse-type building for three days earlier this month to allow adults who'd signed up earlier to "shop" for the perfect Christmas gifts for their children. On the shelves: new and used games, dolls, tech equipment, books and other items. Nearby were loads of bike helmets and refurbished bicycles and other riding toys of varying sizes.
The "elves" of the Holiday Bureau — all volunteers — helped adults pick out items for their children. One new toy per child, a bicycle or other riding toy for children up to age 18, three to four used toys, and an assortment of other items including lots of used books, puzzles, crafts, blocks and other toys could be selected. Most adults carried garbage bags to fill up their sacks with Christmas presents they could take home and wrap for their children; men outside were on hand to help them load up their vehicles with the bicycles.
Volunteer Peggy Tague — one of about 15 who work at the Holiday Bureau throughout the year — said there were more families this year and about 70 percent of them were newcomers who had never asked for the Bureau's help before.
This year, she said, the Bureau didn't have to buy new toys. Churches and other organizations provided.
Tague said Susan Cook, coordinator of Safe Kids of the Greater Knox Area, brought close to 450 bike helmets to be given along with the bicycles. The mission of Safe Kids is to cut down on the number of injuries in children up to age 14 in East Tennessee by promoting awareness on many child safety issues and implementing prevention initiatives.
The Holiday Bureau is located behind Emory Valley Center. People can drop off new or used, but usable toys, books, etc. in a bin outside the building throughout the year.
The nonprofit is also in need of money. In addition to toys, the nonprofit that began in 1944, also helps many families in other ways. Checks can be mailed to Holiday Bureau, 728B Emory Valley Road, Oak Ridge, TN 37830. You can also call the Holiday Bureau at (865) 483-7831 and leave a message if you need more information or wish to offer more assistance.
Donna Smith can be contacted at (865) 220-5502.

As the NFL conducts an independent investigation of the Miami Dolphins, the NFL Players Association will independently investigate the team.
According to Tom Pelissero of USA Today, attorney Richard Smith will examine team management's role in the events that resulted in tackle Jonathan Martin leaving the team on October 28.
As PFT reported over the weekend, Smith also has been retained to assist with the representation of any Dolphins players accused of wrongdoing. Smith was hired to help the NFLPA navigate the conflict of interest inherent to the challenge of representing an employee/union member who accuses other employees/union members of wrongdoing.
Smith's dual role suggests that the NFLPA could try to shift any blame that lands on specific players to the team, transforming the alleged aggressors into victims. Because Smith has no authority to compel the Dolphins or any management employees to cooperate, the mere existence of an NFLPA investigation suggests that the union has the same reservations about the league's investigation of the Dolphins as the union has about the NFL's investigation of potential confidentiality breaches in Tampa.

Attending a major college football game is the modern-day equivalent of a pagan ritual.
Somewhere between the 97th and 99th Meridians West. For the past four years on a Saturday sometime in the fall, I have made an annual pilgrimage to Norman, Oklahoma with my father, who lives in Alva, Oklahoma. He is a huge OU Sooners fan, and this has been my gift to him for his birthday. I call it the "wearing of the red," as he and I join 80,000+ others at Owen Field for what can best be described as a modern-day pagan ritual.
Be it Tuscaloosa, Manhattan, Norman, or wherever, each "shrine" (aka college football stadium) has its own ritual practices as the masses (aka you and I) gather to witness a 21st Century gladiatorial match.
My wife, Kathie, joined us this year for her first ever OU football game, since we obtained an extra ticket just a few days before the match up with Texas Tech. Even with rain delaying the start time by an hour and fifteen minutes and intermittent mist throughout the entire game, she had a good time. "The food was terrible but the atmosphere was fun" is how she summed it all up.
Attending a major college football game these days is the secular equivalent of attending a Christian rock concert at a megachurch (i.e. Central Christian Church in Wichita). Pyrotechnics, huge scoreboards with replay capabilities, state of the art sound systems, action, drama … all financed by those who have purchased a ticket to attend. The ritual practices at a college football game are easily learned and repeated by newbies. As long as you wear red, crimson, purple, etc. you're easily accepted into the culture.
I attended my first OU football game with my dad as a boy of 10 or 11, so the whole experience is engrained in my psyche. Hearing "Boomer Sooner" played by the university band is like hearing a familiar hymn. Of course, you may substitute your alma mater or favorite college football team's fight song here. I imagine I'm not too far off the mark when I say that for most attending an OU Sooners (or Kansas State Wildcats) football match is an almost transcendental experience as participants engage in certain ritual behaviors, joining voices together and clapping their hands with 80,000+ others, while experiencing the ups and downs of their team it its quest to conquer on the field of battle.
Attending a college football game live and in person—especially one like last weekend's OU-Texas Tech match up that had potential ramifications in the national rankings—always supersedes watching or listening to the same game on the television, radio, or Internet. In a world where we're so often disconnected and separated from others, a home college football experience provides a temporary sense of being united and connected with others.

Trend Report: Dramatic, Decadent & Intense Florals
At Maison & Objet, one of the most interesting shows-within-a-show was "Editeurs", exhibiting the best of fabrics and wallpaper – everything to do with pattern. While you would think of florals as a classic through and through, the ones I noticed are yet another new reinvention of the past; over the top, decadent, often dark and very dramatic. Check out this selection for a taste of this European trend…
It's like a peek back in time, through absinthe fueled eyes…intense, dense, scaled up and dark around the edges. Clearly these are not sugary sweet florals or anything remotely demure. What do you think of this design direction?

The index reflects
reports of investigations completed by the child protection agencies, and is
used to aid with investigations and prosecutions. This information from the
index is only provided to:
Designated social welfare agencies
who license for daycare, foster care or to be an employee in a licensed
daycare facility.
Designated social welfare agencies
who are responsible for the placement of children in an
out-of-home setting.
Designated social welfare agencies
who are responsible for adoptions.

child abuse and neglect?
Contact Children's
Services at the 24-hour Intake
Line (530) 749-6288.
13. Can I spank my kids?
The CDSS Manual of Policy & Procedures notes that the child is not defined as in need of service, or to be
a person described by WIC 300(a) through (j) based solely on the existence
of the following condition:
Div. 31-125.111 -- ".....
reasonable and age-appropriate spanking to the buttocks where there is no
evidence of serious physical injury."
In other words, you
may spank your child as long as it is reasonable, age appropriate and does
not leave any physical evidence such as a bruise, red mark, welt, etc.
While it is legally allowable to spank your child as a
form of discipline, many studies over the years have shown
it is a very ineffective form of discipline.
Raising our children is the single most responsible
task which we will ever be given in our lives. All parents have the same
fundamental wish
for their children: that they become healthy, happy, productive,
and responsible members of the society.
In today's fast paced environment, families are faced
with enormous challenges to remain intact in addition to providing a safe
home environment. Children's Services partners with local parents, Family
Resource Centers, and community services partners to empower our children to
explore their potential, fully utilize their special gifts, and contribute to society.

14. How old can a child be before he/she can
be left unsupervised at home?
In California, there is
not a legal age at which a minor can be left unsupervised. Age in and
of itself is not a reliable guide. There are several additional factors
that influence whether it is appropriate to leave a child alone, even for
short periods of time.
Parents should use good
judgment in deciding if their child(ren) is mature enough to be left
without adult supervision. It is important to realize that children left in
self-care could be at a higher risk for injuries.
Below are a few questions that may assist
you in making the decision if your child is ready and able to stay home
safely without supervision:
Does your child know what to do in
case of a house fire?
Does your child know what to do in
case of a house fire?
Does your child know what to do in
case of a house fire?
Does your child know what to do in
case of a house fire?
Does your child know what to do in
case of a house fire?
Does your child know what to do in
case of a house fire?
Does your child know what to do when a
stranger is at the front door asking them to open the door?
Does your child know in what
situations should they call 911 and what information to have ready (name,
address, nature of emergency, etc.)
Does your child know how to address a
person calling on the phone requesting to speak with you?
Does your child know whom to contact
if he/she have questions, but are not in crisis at that moment such as
another adult family member, trusted friend, or neighbor?
Does your child know how to take
immediate care of serious wound until professional help arrives?
Does your child know how to prepare a
simple meal? Does it involve using the stove? Does your child know what to
do if an oil fire started on the stovetop?
Do you regularly practice acting out the above
situations with your child so that your child and you gain confidence in
their ability to consistently react safety and appropriately to the
Keep a list of all
emergency numbers (doctor, hospitals, police, fire department, poison
control center, EMS) and the phone number of a trusted friend or
neighbor posted on each phone.
Show the child where the first aid kit is
located and how to use the items in it.
Tell your child where you will be,
when you plan to return home and how you can be reached. Leaving a
beeper or cell phone on when you are away may help put you and your
child more at ease.
Congratulations for taking the time to read these
questions and answers on our website. It is evidence of your interest and
value you place in on being/becoming the best parent that you can be.

After competing in the Paralympics, Annapolitan Clark Rachfal is eager to see where else tandem cycling takes him
Paralympian Clark Rachfal came home to Annapolis from the London Paralympic Games Sunday, September 15.
Rachfal, 29, was diagnosed with Leber's congenital amaurosis when he was four. The degenerative eye disease has slowly taken his sight, leaving only fuzzy outlines on his periphery.
"I can see less than I saw yesterday, and more than tomorrow," he says.
Leber's hasn't stopped Rachfal, who won last year's World Cup in road racing and competed in four races in London.
Pilot-partner Dave Swanson, of Tucson, Arizona, is Rachfal's eyes when cycling. On their tandem bike, Swanson sits in the front and steers, while Rachfal, in the rear, pushes his athleticism and the bike forward.
The day after his return, Rachfal and I met at Rams Head to talk about his experience. He ordered a Fordham brew. We sat outside, his favorite place to be.
|Clark Rachfal and pilot Dave Swanson powered their way through four races at the Paralympics in London this summer.
What stories have you brought back from London and haven't had time to tell?
Just getting to the team village and getting our Team USA swag and trying everything on, it's like Christmas. Opening ceremonies were totally off the charts, doing the walk of nations surrounded by teammates. Marching in, my teammate found my family on a second-story balcony, so I held up the entire procession behind us to wave to them, shouting at the top of my lungs. The whole experience put a smile on my face.
Then the games started …
Going in for the first day of competition, that's the first time we had seen the stands packed. We got there two hours before our race. Walking through the tunnel to the track, when the tunnel door to inside the velodrome was opened, the wave of the crowd cheering hit me right in the tunnel. I stopped to soak it in.
What about your races?
We didn't medal.
We rode in four races. On the track, a one-kilometer sprint and a four-kilometer endurance race, where the fastest cyclist wins. Then two road races, a time trial race where everyone starts separately and whoever finishes 20 to 30 kilometers the fastest wins. The second road race was about 95 kilometers. Everyone starts at the same time and whoever crosses the finish line first wins.
Two out of the four I was very happy with. One was a good effort, just the legs weren't that fresh.
The road race time trial felt like a missed opportunity. That day it really felt more than anything else that we had lost.
I'm glad we didn't have to race the next day, because I was not in a good place that night. I started to get over it the next day. The day of our final race I was in a good place and happy. I was ready to ride.
Were you expecting to come home with a medal this year?
The men's tandem field is so competitive that you can have a great day and wind up third or you can have a slightly off day and end up 10th. The time difference could be 30 seconds. I thought we had a good ride, but looking at the results there were a of couple teams that have never beaten us at a time trial at the world championships, so it's like, What did we do or they do differently?
Hindsight is 20/20. You think you should have pushed harder on that hill, but then you remember: I tried to push harder on that hill but my leg cramped. Maybe that's all there is to it.
Do you plan to ride in the 2016 Paralympics in Rio?
At this point, yes. I think I'd be lying if I could say I'm just going to walk away or stop here. But four years is a long time. Today's answer might not be next week's answer or next year's answer.
How about your nearer future? Are we going to see you riding around town?
As for right now, I'm not going to touch the bike for a while. When I do pick it up again it will be training for next year.
Not touching the bike for how long?
I don't know. Our track national championships are at the end of September and as of right now I don't think I'll be there. I just don't care right now. Before yesterday, I had been home 12 hours on July 11 and not since then; before then, a total of two weeks since the beginning of May.
My sister is getting married in October, and I haven't been around for any of the things going on with that. I want time to meet up with family and friends and catch up on old times and make some new memories, too.
You gave up bike for quite a few years as your eyesight failed.
Once my vision wasn't good enough to ride a single bike anymore, I stopped riding — when I was around 13. That was around 1996.
That was while your were growing up in Annapolis?
Annapolis was a great place to be. We're close to hospitals like Hopkins and University of Maryland. I was able to be outside. I could get out and walk the dogs every day.
How has being blind affected you?
I always wondered why me? Once I accepted that I couldn't see and learned that I could do whatever it was I wanted, life became a lot easier for me. Everyone has issues. I didn't have it harder than anyone else.
How did you get back on a bike?
I started riding again in 2004 when I was studying abroad in Australia. Some friends were organizing a tour-style charity ride through South Wales, and one asked me if they found a tandem would I ride with them.
I did some quick number crunching: It's about two months away, you have to find a tandem, someone has to let us use it … it's never going to happen. So I said sure, I'll do it.
Two weeks later she found a tandem.
It wound up being way too much fun.
New South Wales is a long way from the London Paralympics. How did you get from there to here?
In 2005 I was at a presentation by a member of the Australian Blind Cricket Team. I hadn't known there was such a thing, and I still don't know how they play. He told me about the U.S. Association for Blind Athletes and the Paralympics.
I looked into the sports that were offered, and cycling jumped out because I just did it the year before. I'd get to be outdoors, and I thought of all of the places the pros race their bikes — Italy, France, Spain. I could do this.
I went to one of the development camps in Colorado Springs.
And you got hooked?
I really like riding, wanted to get into racing, went to the Nationals with a pilot that I met at that camp, Dave Swanson.
In 2007, we thought we'd qualified for the World's Team. In 2008, we came close to making it to the Paralympics in Beijing. That would have been amazing after training for just a year. From the experience we did get the coaching that comes with a World Team selection event.
After that we just kept riding, pretty full on, especially the past two years. We race on both road and track. It's train for the track all winter, then two weeks off, then train for the road spring and summer.
Cycling has given you memories as well as Olympic standing …
On my first time on a tandem, we went to parts of new South Wales and Australia that I never would have gotten to otherwise.
After my first week at an Olympic training center, I could have stopped right there and had an amazing experience.
Cycling has taken me to London, and it's not over. I have no regrets so far, and I'm excited to see where else it takes me.

Challenging and Emerging Conditions in Emergency Medicine
Challenging and Emerging Conditions in Emergency Medicine
ISBN: 978-1-119-97158-0 May 2011 Wiley-Blackwell 376 Pages
DescriptionWith growing numbers of chronically ill patients surviving longer and receiving novel medical and surgical treatments, emergency departments are increasingly the venue for associated acute presentations. How can emergency physicians respond to these challenging and emerging conditions?
This book focuses on the unusual and complex disease presentations not covered in detail in the standard textbooks, helping you manage patients with conditions such as congenital heart disease, cystic fibrosis, morbid obesity, intellectual disability and intestinal failure.
Not only does this book provide guidance on evaluation and diagnosis, but it also addresses the practical issues of acute management and continuing referral. The individual chapters are written by high profile emergency physicians, in conjunction with appropriate specialists, and include authoritative evidence to back up the clinical information.

""There are excellent chapters on epidemiology, emergency department principles and radiology images, all illustrated with diagrams and tables ... I particularly enjoyed the predictions for the next five years, as people live longer with complex, chronic conditions."" (Nursing Standard, 22 February 2012)
""All in all, this is a good book put together by Dr. Arvind Venkat as its editor. A fairly large variety of problems encountered in emergency rooms by doctors are covered in it. If you have had insufficient exposure to such cases in your medical and surgical textbooks, this is the book that can fill the gaps for you."" (Biz India, 6 February 2012)
""When every second matters, bureaucracy needs to be shoved aside. Challenging and Emerging Conditions in Emergency Medicine discusses the important issues that emerge in serious issues that have life and death connotations on the line for it all. As the population ages, and new techniques emerge in medical science, and conditions lead to multiple emergency treatments as people live with heart disease, obesity, and other long term conditions. Discussing evaluation and diagnosis with essays from many long term emergency physicians and more, Challenging and Emerging Conditions in Emergency Medicine is a vital discussion of this very important aspect of modern medicine and the high complexity in this incredibly vital situations."" (Midwest Book Review)
""The specialty of emergency medicine has expanded in many dimensions over the past 50 years. First and most dramatic is simply the magnitude of care that emergency de-partments (EDs) now provide. The volume of patients visiting EDs in the United States has increased to more than 117 million per year (39.4 per 100 population).[Niska R, Bhuiya F, Xu J. National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey: 2007 emergency department summary. Natl Health Stat Report. 2010;26(26):1-31.] The duration and extent of care provided in EDs are likewise increasing as hospital inpatient capacity is reached and patients in EDs receive prolonged care while awaiting inpatient beds. In addition, the constraints on the health care system continue to increase and the ED, which is always open and will necessarily see all comers, is becoming the portal of entry for a wider spectrum of patients.
The scope of practice in emergency medicine is expanding, with an ever-increasing number of subspecialty fellowships offered and increasingly advanced research and procedures being performed. Simultaneously, medical care has advanced, promoting vastly increased longevity for patients with diseases or congenital disorders that previously would have precluded their survival to adulthood. This increased longevity now leads to ED visits for complications of chronic diseases not seen by prior generations of emergency medicine physicians. Concurrently, with the increase in time patients spend in EDs comes a correlative increase in the duration that these patients are cared for in the ED. Moreover, new disease entities and treatment modalities have emerged, further expanding the breadth of cases presenting to EDs.
Challenging and Emerging Conditions in Emergency Medicine has a stated goal of offering emergency physicians a resource when addressing patients with increased longevity despite chronic or congenital diseases, those receiving novel treatment modalities, and those with complications of social pathologies and lack of medical resources. The book nicely fills a wide gulf between standard textbooks in emergency medicine and the subspecialty literature and focuses on issues critical to the emergency medicine physician who will necessarily care for these patients. Edited by Arvind Venkatand written by notable experts, the book includes a compelling index listing topics that every emergency medicine physician will recognize as new challenges in the field. It is a welcome addition to the emergency medicine armamentarium, an up-to-date resource that deals with topics ranging from those increasingly common but always frightening cases of the adult with congenital heart disease to the all-too-common but exceedingly challenging issues of the obese patient with a medical or traumatic issue.
The structure of the individual chapters allows the opportunity to understand the epidemiology, procedural interventions, and disease presentation and management of each disease process. Each chapter includes a section titled "The Next Five Years" that provides an interesting view into the effects of the disease on the future of emergency medicine practice.
The book is more than complete enough to serve as a general reference yet concise enough to allow it to be used for general reading. It will serve as a superb study guide for emergency medicine residents and provide tremendous opportunity for practicing emergency medicine physicians to update their skill sets. Timely, highly relevant and well written, Challenging and Emerging Conditions in Emergency Medicine should have a place on every emergency medicine physician's reading list."" (Review by Arthur Pancioli, MD. JAMA October 26, 2011—Vol 306, No. 16)
""Patients with severe illness and significant physical and social pathologies that were once perceived as life shortening are now living longer and in some cases, surviving into old age. As a consequence it is likely that patients with conditions that were once a rarity will be seen more frequently in the emergency department (ED) with either complications of their condition or co-morbidities. The need for specialist input with such patients is imperative, but there is also a requirement for ED staff to be familiar with the nature, presentation and progression of these conditions and current treatment strategies in order to meet the immediate needs of patients.
Venkat's book provides an insight into some of the once unusual conditions that are now being seen in EDs, ranging from the more commonplace post-cardiac arrest patient, complications of obesity and those with chronic pain, to the esoteric problems of children with intestinal failure and complications of visceral transplantation. Each chapter gives an overview of the condition and its progression and the complications that might lead the patient to present to the ED, and a review of immediate management and current therapies. The chapters end with an interesting glance into the future, with projections of potential changes in treatment options and patient outcomes over the next 5 years.
The sections are readily digestible with easily accessible text and clear diagrams. Key therapies are presented in tables and lists, with clear referencing to current literature.
All of the contributors are based in the United States (US) and as such much of the data on prevalence and treatment modalities have a US focus. However the unusual range of conditions covered and the guidance on immediate support and therapy make this an interesting and helpful resource for doctors, practitioners and nurses working in any ED.""

text: minnis 17 Posted October 18, 2013 Hi all, I have a 2006 Focus Ghia with the 6000CD radio system. The radio surround is a horrible plastic wood-effect style, and doesn't match with any of the car. (The surround, not the radio). I have seen a few people on here with a silver surround like this: Will I be able to get one from Ford, or will I have to spray my current one? I've tried eBay, but all I seem to be able to find are Double Din conversion surrounds, which I don't believe would fit. Thanks in advance :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"They knew he had these documents," attorney Tristan G. Pelayes alleged, "that would show that even the owners were committing fraud."
VICTORVILLE — Rancho Motor Company routinely inflated incomes on loan applications enabling customers to qualify for vehicles they otherwise could not afford, a former finance employee claims in a lawsuit.
Ownership and management were informed of these alleged fraudulent practices and failed to take action, Christopher White, a finance and insurance associate at Rancho from April 2015 until his resignation in December, charged in a cross-complaint filed Feb. 14.
Rancho denied these serious accusations, and others, in a statement Monday to the Daily Press, calling White "a former disgruntled employee." The dealership, located in Victorville, sued White last month for allegedly stashing documents with customers' sensitive data onto a personal email account.
In June, Rancho said it learned "some employees may be copying and taking photographs of private, financial customer information on their phones," the dealership's complaint said.
Rancho believed that White had "obtained and retained unauthorized copies of customer information of numerous customers," according to the suit, which the dealership said was filed to protect customer privacy.
In its statement Monday, Rancho claimed that White "exposed some of (the dealership's) customers to identity theft by sending their completed credit applications in unsecured emails to his home computer." It's a determination it made following an investigation.
In probing the scope and extent of the data breach, the dealership had retained an outside vendor to conduct a forensic investigation of White's former work computer and email, court records show.
"The dealership successfully obtained an emergency order requiring Mr. White to return its customers' documents," Rancho said in its statement, adding that it had previously notified affected customers.
But Tristan G. Pelayes, an attorney representing White in the cross-complaint, said Monday that his client was, in fact, a whistle-blower who was retaliated against for exposing widespread credit and bank fraud at the dealership by managers and staff, which had been spurred by, and cultivated under, a high-pressure sales environment.
Pelayes told the Daily Press that the dealership purportedly had set up meetings with customers, notified them about the identity theft risks and offered a free year of credit monitoring.
But as part of those meetings, according to Pelayes, customers were also asked to sign a declaration that they, themselves, reported their incomes on loan applications.
Pelayes said this was significant because Rancho employees regularly submitted drafts of loan applications to the company's owners so that the customers' incomes could be adjusted to the ideal position for loan approval.
"Sometimes the customers went along with it and sometimes the customers did not know their income was being changed," he said by phone. "The only application that ended up with the bank was the final one."
The superfluous documents otherwise would be destroyed, Pelayes said.
"They knew he had these documents," he said, "that would show that even the owners were committing fraud."
Rancho has denied all wrong-doing and accused White of being "desperate to create chaos in the courts."
"We will prove to a court that Mr. White's allegations are demonstrably false," it said.
Other accusations, as detailed in last week's cross-complaint, include discrimination against race, gender and sexual orientation, and withholding lower interest rate offers to collect more money from customers.
White claimed his protests about these alleged activities were ignored or dismissed.
He said customers were systematically racially profiled and that customers and employees were described in wildly pejorative terms.
African Americans were said to have "nappy credit," Middle Eastern employees were referred to as "ali babas" or worse, and customers with poor credit were called "roaches" or said to be unable to "finance steam off a hot dog."
White resigned in December, saying the blowback from ownership and management for whistle-blowing had grown intolerable.
But Rancho maintained Monday that White's "actions were in violations of state and federal law."
"... (H)ad he not quit," the dealership said, "he would have been terminated."
A hearing in the matter is next scheduled Thursday, court record show.

Lew hits out at online GST rates
Retail mogul and billionaire Solomon Lew has made a blistering attack on the government, warning that the economy has "run out of time" over the issue of the $1000 GST-free threshold for purchases made over the internet, with Australian jobs and businesses at risk.
Speaking this morning at the annual general meeting for his retail business Premier Investments, which owns Just Jeans, Portmans and other clothing chains, Mr Lew said there was such overwhelming evidence of damage done to the local economy by the tax loophole that governments must act.
"My message to the government is that we have all run out if time. Change needs to be made right now and if the government needs any further proof of what's at stake I have one word for them - jobs!" Mr Lew said.
Last week a GST review made by former NSW premier Nick Greiner and former Victorian premier John Brumby recommended consumers pay GST on overseas purchases made over the web.
The federal government said it needed more time to assess the impact of the changes.
Yesterday, Assistant Treasurer David Bradbury said that the $1000 threshold was ''very high'' compared with overseas, and the government would start preparing ''business cases'' for changing the tax rules governing low-value goods purchased from overseas.
But Canberra is not moving fast enough for Mr Lew.
"My message to the government is that we have all run out of time," Mr Lew said this morning.
"In every other comparable country, governments have recognised the need to deal with this issue as a serious matter of public policy and have already acted - while our government plays 'process' games."
Premier chief executive Mark McInnes agreed, calling the loophole "an appaling piece of government policy".
Yes Minister
Mr Lew, who is a former member of the Reserve Bank board, said he had met on numerous occasions high-ranking Federal government Cabinet Ministers to discuss the GST-free threshold but had been met with delaying tactics.
''The Ministers' response was 'we will look into it', the famous mirror trick, we will look into it,'' Mr Lew said.
''I went to see Wayne Swan in 2010 and of course I explained to him what was going on and he used delaying tactics - formed an enquiry, then a second enquiry and a third enquiry and nothing has happened.
''And now we are hearing it will probably happen after the next election because it's a 'hot potato' as one report said this morning.'' Mr Lew said it was a ''free-for-all'' and it needed to be stopped.
A range of reviews have been held on the GST issue, with some experts calling for the $1000 threshold to be scrapped or lowered to $500 or $20.
Mr McInnes was equally dismayed and fed up by the lack of progress on addressing the favourable tax treatment for offshore online retailers and reducing or removing entirely the $1000 GST free threshold for online purchases.
''It's like an episode of 'Yes Minister','' said Mr McInnes. ''We will form a taskforce to form an enquiry to form a panel. So we've had the Productivity Commission in favour of it, the low value parcel processing taskforce report in favour of it, independent Labor and Liberal [former] Premiers, Nick Greiner and John Brumby, report in favour of it and the fact is we are still left with it.''
Mr McInnes said while 75 per cent of all online purchases made in Australia may be from domestic websites, that proportion was inflated by the inclusion of groceries and other consumer items. He said a recent report from Ernst & Young showed when it came to a category like fashion 75 per cent of purchases were actually from foreign websites that did not pay GST or duty, with the same levels recorded across other discretionary sectors such as perfume and cosmetics.
Mr McInnes also suggested the GST-free threshold was a potential security issue as packages coming into Australia were not checked by customs officials.
''No security, no checks no safety checks, consumers, people with different motives, could be bringing anything into this country under $1000, and no other western government in the world has allowed it.''
Stifling online business
Mr Lew said during the year Premier had invested heavily in its online retail business with 67 per cent growth in internet sales during financial year 2012. But, he said, no Australian online business was capable of reaching its full potential while a "flawed, two-tiered tax system remains in place".
In a withering attack Mr Lew said the current government policy on the GST-free threshold failed the fundamental test of good governance to act responsibly.
Canberra should not, he said, ''pander to perceived populism at the expense of sound public policy''.
He said the government was also failing Australians and the hundreds of thousands of people who work in retail, the nation's largest employment sector. Mr Lew added it was very hard to compete when ''your own government is on the side of foreign competitors''.
He also called on the RBA to make a meaningful cut to official interest rates today

I highly recommend black for burlap prints as other colors are not as bold on the burlap background. If you want a specific color scheme, I'd recommend having it printed on the fine art paper.

Cortez soon could have beautified medians to greet visitors to the town.
The Cortez City Council has given direction to the public works department to write a letter to the Colorado Department of Transportation to seek approval to spruce up the medians for the gateway entrances to the city.
Council member Matt Keefauver said what the city needs to decide is whether to have greenery with any such proposal.
Do we want it to look like we have some vision? he asked.
Nickerson said most people would like to see some type of greenery.
If the project comes to fruition, only the inside lanes would be closed to minimize traffic impacts, he said.
Council member Bob Archibeque said he was in favor of looking into this but didnt want the project to be turned into a hodgepodge.
The city would use $600,000 already budgeted for street improvements through city sales tax to begin the whole process.
Business owners in the Highway 160/491 South Broadway reconstruction project area do not think the current medians are attractive.
Many said if medians are needed, they should at least look nice.
But one owner stated the city probably had better things to spend money on than medians.
Nickerson said if CDOT were to sign off on the medians soon, much of the concrete that would have to be removed would already have been done because of the South Broadway project.
They will leave us set up, he said.
Nickerson added the idea is in the early stages.
City Manager Shane Hale said CDOT is now willing to look at things, which hasnt always been the case.
