FREEPORT — Aiden Chang had been in a similar position before.
FREEPORT — Aiden Chang had been in a similar position before.
But against East Dubuque, the Aquin junior quarterback needed to rally the team back from a six-point deficit on the road with roughly two-and-a-half minutes left in the game.
A younger Chang, even with his varsity experience as a sophomore starter in both basketball and baseball, may have folded.
But not this time.
"I feel like a sophomore Aiden Chang would have freaked out," Chang said. "But my trust in my coaches and teammates has really helped in every sport I played in.
"We knew we had a lot of time on the clock. So we just stayed calm."
Chang threw the tying touchdown in regulation, then the game-winner on the first play in overtime to elevate Aquin to a 3-1 record.
Winning on the quarterback's arm is nothing new at Aquin. The Bulldogs have passed their way through the rankings of the NUIC Upstate for years, relying on a spread offense to remain one of the top teams in the conference; a conference that's known a lot more for its running.
"The most important person of the offense we run is the quarterback," Aquin coach Todd Kramer said. "You've got to have the receivers and line, but it all starts at quarterback.
"We've been pretty fortunate the last few years to have kids who have that natural instinct to play along with someone who's very smart and has a good knowledge of the game and has a good arm."
How it all got started
Aquin wasn't always like this. The Bulldogs played a more traditional run offense like everyone else in the area and won state titles in 1981 and 1986. But the offense changed after the Bulldogs lost to Dakota in the first round of the 2004 playoffs.
"We kind of ran out of linemen and running backs," Kramer said. "Back when Dr. Marty Janecke and I were assistants, we knew that our line was going to be average and we weren't going to be able to move guys around and play power football.
"We had a good quarterback and receivers with good hands. So after that year, we researched the spread and came up with the offense that we have today."
"They had (quarterback) Adam Jelinek coming back and really good athletes, so (offensive coach) Craig Jenkins set out to put in the spread," said former Aquin quarterback Nolan Brannick, whose father Tim, was on the coaching staff. "They won state the following year, so obviously it worked."
Jelinek set school passing records, many of which still stand as the Bulldogs won state in Class 1A in 2005. Nolan Brannick was a ball boy then. Six years later, Brannick would take over at quarterback and lead Aquin to its deepest postseason run since '05, reaching the state semifinals.
"I definitely learned a lot from Adam," Brannick said. "I wanted to be him. Last year I was fortunate to pass most of his records. It's really special playing quarterback at Aquin."
Offense spreading around
Though the NUIC is still a run-dependant conference, more teams are using the spread.
"A lot more teams have been going to it," Orangeville coach Jay Doyle said. "Milledgeville runs it now, along with Warren and River Ridge. Following our first game against Durand, our next four games were against the spread."
"It's just a sign of today's times," Kramer said. "Sometimes you have kids and linemen to run and others you don't. We felt that after we ran out of our big guns, we could spread it out."
River Ridge coach Bill Johnson was the coach of Eastland-Pearl City when the Wildcatz were one of the first teams in the conference to run the spread. In 2002, both Aquin and E-PC's offense combined to score 152 points in a 78-74 Bulldogs win.
Student of the game
Former quarterbacks Ryan Zuravel and Brannick picked up cues from Jelinek. And Chang learned both on the sidelines and at receiver last year from Brannick.
"Nolan was a great teacher and taught me some of the little stuff," Chang said. "Coach Stovall and Coach Kramer are two of the smartest coaches in the area. They match very well and know how to work with us. It's been easier than most would think, even though I was kind of nervous coming into it."
This season, Chang has thrown for 1,187 yards, with 16 touchdowns and seven interceptions. Three of those INTs came in his first game as a starting quarterback against A-FC.
"That first game was pretty rough for me," Chang said. "I was trying to do too much and wasn't making my reads. I've made my reads now pretty consistency."
Chang and Brannick both struggled at first making better reads. But both are students of the game, using their football IQ to improve and excel on the field by the following week.
Brannick, who now attends North Central College, was impressed with how well the offense looked when Aquin played Stockton in Week 2 of this season. Chang threw for a season-high 435 yards with four touchdowns.
"He's killing it," Brannick said. "To be honest I was surprised with how many points he was putting up considering the turnover from last season. But he's doing really well.
"Through my first four games as a senior, I threw for around 1,000 yards and 17 touchdowns. This year, he's already at or near those marks as a junior, which is pretty amazing."
For Kramer, Chang has seemingly always had a sports instinct along with a knowledge of whatever the three-sport athlete is playing.
"Some people just have that gift," Kramer said. "I don't know much about basketball, but I coached him in fifth and sixth grade basketball and he was very knowledgeable.
"It's something that you don't teach kids. They either understand it or they don't, which I think has helped him pick up the system in football. He's recognizing it because he has that sports-minded sense. He watches film and is always asking questions and picks things up pretty quick.
"He's a student of the game."

Sweets For A Sweetie
Us before her baptism.
54 comments:
Can I just say "WOW"!! What a beautiful party. I'm seriously impressed with your party throwing skills. :) And thanks so much for the link - I love your tower! Really adorable. Would you mind if I added it to the "You've Made It" page with a link of course?ReplyDelete
I think I need you to throw me a party - what are you doing next April?? ;)
What a beautiful and gorgeous display!! Congrats on your daughter's Baptism...what a special day and a wonderful convenant she has made with her Heavenly Father :)ReplyDelete
I am loving this party...everything is so adorable!!ReplyDelete
Super cute party! I love your table set up. The dimension and height are great. Looks like it was a lot of fun!ReplyDelete
Wow!! DEFINITELY Amy Atlas!! I wouldn't have guessed a difference! :) Great job; what an awesome party!ReplyDelete
SOOOO cute! I love your parties! So inspirational! And so fun to have just a great family day. What did you use for your backdrop? That's the problem I always have.ReplyDelete
Thanks all! I love doing this kind of stuff. I get all bizarrely giddy as I start planning.ReplyDelete
I thought I'd answer Ashlee's question in the comments incase someone else was wondering as well. The backdrop is just fabric. I got it from home fabrics... for those of you in the Salt Lake valley it is off of 7200 South and just west of state street. It comes on the big round bolts and so it is 60" wide. It also was on sale for 5 dollars a yard. I think wrapping paper would work just as well. You may have to run it side by side... but it would work! Hobby Lobby has really cute patterns for great prices. Plus I don't go in unless I have one of their 40% off coupons! I also got all the white plates from Tai Pan. Each plate was about 2 bucks. I had a few already. So I spent less than 10 dollars to get what I needed there. I know I could use them for a million different things too. Hope that helps!
Another beautiful party by Anj!! Great job! The tea cup display is to die for. When you say goodwill, do you mean di? I have looked for a goodwill in utah without any luck. I would love to know where one is. And...I am almost done with my own birthday chair (a shameless copy of yours). I can't wait to show you when I'm finished!ReplyDelete
Seriously everyone.... thank you so much!ReplyDelete
A few answers...
I did get the plates and cups at the DI;)
Rach, we set it up in front of the wall that I wrote the proclamation on.
Rafahi fam... I made most of the treats... I didn't make the cake. I ran out of time, so a local grocery store with a fantastic bakery saved me there. And the cream puffs, candy and swizzle sticks are store bought. But I handled the rest.
I LOVE everything!!! I am sitting here just amazed!!! Thank you for the inspiration! I love ALL the food, and the darling chair!!! Did you hang fabric as the backdrop? I just LOVE it all. You are so very talented! Thank you for sharing it!ReplyDelete
How did you do the labels??? They are so cute!!!ReplyDelete
I made the labels in photoshop with these digital stamps...ReplyDelete
The fonts I used are
(You can get a free one called circus from dafont.com that is similar).
Sedona Script I'm not sure where I got it from. It's a free font, so you may just have to google it and find a site you are comfortable downloading it from.
I hope that helps!
i am sitting here in heaven anj....grinning from ear to ear....i bet gorgeous scooter was too!ReplyDelete
theres your lovely bday chair again....and those pom poms just make me want to add ...& add...& add to ours- i love them!
i'm sure she had a wonderful day and looks just as heavenly in her white dress...what a happy time for you all...
melissa x
I absolutely ADORE your DECOR... You did a FANTASTIC job!ReplyDelete
Anj: the shop hop is really fun. I have never participated 100%, but my mom and sister in law have. All the wasatch front quilting stores join in and they all have shop hop discounts and activities and often have refreshments in their store, ect and they have give-aways and stuff. When I went to Material Girls, the store was packed! You'll have to look at my tooth fairy II. I made another one, and it is much cuter!ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness....words can barely describe! Seriously! These look EXACTLY like they were done by Amy Atlas. Are you kidding me? My son turns 8 in August. He wants a Scooby Doo party. Boo! How am I going to make that un-tacky? Impossible.ReplyDelete
Maybe I'll do something classier for his baptism day. (you look awesome in that black & white dress....PS)
This is still blowing my mind. I'll stop now.
Um..... I think you should start up party planning as a business!!! You are uber talented girlfriend!!!ReplyDelete
I love your teacup dessert tray! SO fun! I had a fun and colorful fancy party for my daughter in June as well. Find it mid june on my blog.ReplyDelete
I can't believe that wasn't out of a magazine! You are amazing! Lucky daughter! I'm in awe!ReplyDelete
Wow this completely amazing!!! I am blown away! I found you through Simplicity Photography. Did you happen to make the bib necklace from my pattern for your photo shoot? It was sooo divine and amazing! I would love to chat with you!ReplyDelete
Joy Stallard

Years ago, we used to listen to two radio shows every Sunday night, "The Mind's Eye," which featured fabulous readings of short speculative fiction, followed by the "Goon Show," wacky brainchild of British humorists Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers, and Harry Secombe. But with the advent of podcasts and video, one is now able to listen to hours of terrific programming at the click of a mouse.
The Celtic Myth Podshow is a wonderful place to while away time, listening to dramatic readings (with music!) of Celtic Myths, delivered in about 25 minutes episodes. Their series begins with the Book of Invasions, from the Irish Mythological Cycle. Each episode also comes with "show notes" which provide excellent reference materials, including maps, dramatic credits, musical credits, and additional links. There is also a fascinating blog that posts on all things Celtic -- from recent archaeological finds, preservation news, music, and materials for educators.
And if you've a hankering for a little music, consider the Irish and Celtic Music Podcasts, a free bi-monthly downloadable radio program of Independent Irish and Celtic music. The program consists of "Irish drinking songs, Scottish folk songs, bagpipes, music from Ireland, Scotland, Brittany, Wales, Nova Scotia, Galacia, Australia and the United States. Hosted by Marc Gunn of the Brobdingnagian Bards." Get out your i-pod and fill it up -- there's tons of great stuff here.
Anyone want to recommend other favorite myth and fairy tale podcast sites? I'm thinking of putting together a collection of sites for our links page. Thanks!

Yeah with Garrison getting comfortable with his new team, he's already playing better, plus we are seeing his deadly bombs with more accuracy now.Tiger wrote: Not much to say about defence. Same gang but Tanev and Corado should both be a bit improved by age. Garrison played well last year and will probably be used more effectively this year on PP and as an offensive Dman..
Hoping Torts can find a way to create 3 solid pairings with left - right side dmen, with Garrison and Edler on our #1 powerplay line, it should be a much more efficient special team.
Be interesting to see how Torts plays our #1 and #2 powerplay lines. AV seemed to rarely have Burrows out there with the Sedins - full time anyways, putting Kesler out there instead with the Sedins.
imo if we are to be a contending team all season and more importantly during the post season, the success will have to rely on the coattails of Kesler being healthy for a full season, as we all know we can count on the Sedin's to be that under the radar bonafide #1 line silently putting up top 20 in the league points while playing against the other teams top defensive players and/or #1 lines.Tiger wrote:With the Sedins and Burrows line being another year older and no big improvements to the other lines I doubt we will improve a lot in the goals for department.
My take ? We will need 100% effort from all players and a little luck to win the division but should make the playoffs with the new playoff format.. The team as it stands now is the weakest we have put on ice since 2008/09
It's just after Kesler went through all those injuries and surgeries after his career year he's obviously never been the same and as a result, all the other opposing teams had to do was stifle the Sedin line and that basically shut this team down as we couldn't score worth shit. And even when RK did come back he wasn't up to his speedy, sniper, shotgun shooting self again.
But he says he's feeling better than ever so hopefully he can shake off the RUST and shitty play of the past coupla years and regain his Selke trophy like play asap!

text: John Simkin Posted February 14, 2005 Chris, the primary credit for winning the Cold War belongs, IMO, to Ronald Reagan. In 1987 Mikhail Gorbachev met with Reagan and signed the Immediate Nuclear Forces (INF) abolition treaty. He also made it clear he would no longer interfere in the domestic policies of other countries in Eastern Europe and in 1989 announced the withdrawal of Soviet forces from Afghanistan. Aware that Gorbachev would not send in Soviet tanks there were demonstrations against communist governments throughout Eastern Europe. Over the next few months the communists were ousted from power in Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, and East Germany. All these events took place while Reagan was president and has therefore got the credit for the fall of communism in Eastern Europe (he was far less successful in destroying it in China and Cuba). However, it seems to me that it was Gorbachev rather than Reagan who brought an end to the Cold War. This is why the fall of communism only took place in Eastern Europe rather than in other parts of the world. http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=3218 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might have noticed that this review looks slightly different to other reviews on VideoGamer.com. That's because we look at games clearly designed for younger gamers in a slightly different way to other games. We'll endeavour to tell you just what you need to know in a clear and concise way so you'll be confident it's the right purchase for whatever your situation.
What is it?
WALL.E is an action platformer based on the Disney Pixar movie of the same name. You play as the trash crushing robot WALL.E and are joined by the egg-shaped EVE. WALL.E sections play as a cross between traditional platform gameplay and third-person shooter action. EVE sections see the robot flying through the air, taking out targets or simply speeding through tunnels. A selection of mini-games are also on offer for up to four players.
WALL.E is one of the more complex kids titles we've played. There are numerous awkward jumps and plenty of enemies to take out with your blaster. Although you can use a precision aiming mode the game also makes use of a aim-lock on. On the Wii the controls seem ever so slightly more complicated, although the addition of basic Wii Remote gesture controls might be enough to make it the preferred version for kids. Various light-gun like sections are also best played on the Wii due to the pointer.
WALL.E is rated U like the movie. There's a fair amount of action in the game, with WALL.E and EVE shooting the enemy robots, but it's never anything that could be considered more than cartoon violence. WALL.E and EVE are both likable characters and should go down well with kids who have seen the movie and those who haven't. The game follows the basic story of the movie, although it's hardly an exact copy, with various sections expanded upon for gameplay purposes.
Production value
All versions of the game manage to bring the movie to life, but the next-gen versions are by far the most impressive. The Wii game is essentially the same, simply with a rougher appearance and a slower frame rate. Whether young children will care about the HD visuals seen on the 360 and PS3 is debatable. The crispness aside, all versions are pretty comparable. WALL.E and EVE are modelled well enough for kids to know who they're playing as, although we'd have liked a little more effort to have been put into certain levels, especially on 360 and PS3.
Anything for adults?
WALL.E isn't very challenging for adults and will likely prove to be quite tedious. Numerous sections require the same action to be repeated, which is ideal for young children but not great for experienced gamers. The various multiplayer modes support two-four players and provide a mild diversion from the main game.
VideoGamer.com's Verdict
WALL.E isn't a bad effort as far as movie licensed games for kids go, but it's not the ideal game for the younger audience. The controls can feel a little fiddly at times and the presentation isn't brilliant considering the incredible looking source material. Fans of this summer's movie will likely find a game they enjoy, but WALL.E is far from being an essential buy for kids.

Women's Cancers We Treat
Cancer is a general term for the abnormal growth of cells in the body. There are millions of cells in the body, and each cell contains DNA (the genetic blueprint for life). DNA provides millions of messages to the genes, which tell the body how to grow, function and behave.
Sometimes there is a mistake in one of the messages, called a mutation. Cancer results when a gene sends the wrong message to a cell and the cell multiplies repeatedly. As the cancer cells grow it may be felt in the form of a solid mass or bump or lump.
The words tumor, mass, nodule, or lump are all used to refer to a collection of cells. A mass can be benign (no cancer) or malignant (cancer) but only a biopsy or sampling of the cells can determine a cancer diagnosis.
Gynecologic cancers involve areas of the reproductive organs, including the:
Each year, over 80,000 women in the United States learn they have a gynecologic cancer. Although these cancers are often grouped together, they vary widely in their causes, risk factors, detection, treatment and chance of a cure.
- Breast cancer. One out of eight American women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during her lifetime. Fortunately, death rates from breast cancer have declined recently as a result of improved education and scientific advances that have led to earlier detection and more effective treatments.
- Cervical cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death for women worldwide. In the United States, approximately 4,000 women die each year from cervical cancer, but worldwide, cervical cancer claims more than 190,000 lives annually. With the use of the Pap smear, cervical cancer can be detected early and is highly curable. A vaccine against 4 common strands of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) has been approved for girls age 9-26. HPV is the most common cause of cervical cancer.
- Ovarian cancer is the fifth-leading cause of cancer deaths among women and is responsible for more deaths than the other gynecologic cancers combined. Ovarian cancer is often referred to as the "cancer that whispers" because its symptoms are vague, and a diagnosis is often not made until the cancer is advanced. There is currently no effective screening test available for the early detection of ovarian cancer.
- Gestational trophoblastic disease represents a spectrum of diseases characterized by the abnormal growth of trophoblastic tissue. Trophoblasts are special cells that develop from a fertilized egg at conception, and develop into the placental tissues. GTD has many types, including hydatidiform molar pregnancy, invasive molar disease, and choriocarcinoma.
In addition to cancer of the ovary, women can be diagnosed with fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal cancer (lining of the abdomen). These are separate diagnoses, but are diagnosed and treated like epithelial ovarian cancer. Fallopian tube carcinoma and primary peritoneal cancer are often grouped under ovarian cancer in information brochures.
- Uterine cancer is the most common gynecologic cancer in the United States, diagnosed in approximately 40,000 women each year. It often presents with early symptoms of abnormal vaginal bleeding and therefore diagnosed in it's early and curable stage. However, death rates from uterine cancer have been on the rise and have more than doubled over the last five years.
- Vagina and vulvar cancer is relatively rare, accounting for approximately four percent of all gynecologic cancers. Vulvar cancer is highly curable if detected early, but the only standard screening for the disease is a pelvic exam.
Less common gynecologic cancers include gestational trophoblastic disease, vaginal cancer, ovarian low malignant potential tumors, and non-epithelial ovarian cancers such as germ cell tumors, in which the cancer forms in the egg cell of the ovary.
Although these cancers are often grouped together, they vary widely in their causes, risk factors, detection, treatment and chance of a cure. Women with any of these symptoms should see their doctor as soon as possible:
- A change in bowel or bladder habits
- A sore that does not heal
- Unusual vaginal bleeding or discharge
- A thickening or lump that causes pain or can be seen or felt
- Indigestion that does not go away
- Pain in the pelvic area

Soulless director seeks inspiration, settles for sparkles and cleavage.
Who's In It: Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Dame Judi Dench, Nicole Kidman, Sophia Loren, Kate Hudson, and Fergie. Yes, Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas.
The Basics: Under extreme pressure and on the verge of a nervous breakdown, celebrated director Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis) escapes the demands of studio execs, producers, reporters, and his wife (Marion Cotillard) to a quiet resort outside of Rome, where he hopes to write his next film. Only problem is, the film's already in production with the whole world waiting for his script. When even his trashy mistress (Penelope Cruz) can't screw him back to normal, Guido begins losing himself in fantasy and memory as the women in his life – his wife, his girlfriend, his mother (Sophia Loren), his muse (Nicole Kidman), his confidante (Dame Judi Dench), a Vogue reporter (Kate Hudson), and the busty prostitute that taught him about love when he was a boy (Fergie) – materialize in his imagination to help him craft his next story, and possibly repair his crumbling personal life.
What's The Deal: It's obvious Rob Marshall has love for the Broadway version of 8 1/2, but he's no Fellini. His lightweight adaptation of an adaptation doesn't do justice to either the show or the film that came before, mostly because Marshall doesn't have a clue as to how to pull off such an abstract narrative. Set primarily on the Cinecitta soundstage where Guido stares into a half-constructed set, waiting for inspiration to strike in the form of imagined dance numbers (and a lot of what Rachel from Glee would call "hairography"), Nine fails to mesh as it flits from Guido's memories and fantasies to his clueless, real-life wanderings. Even worse, Daniel Day-Lewis is too aloof to curry sympathy for the philandering, lying, and cheating director. If Nine were a horror movie, the spectral ghosts of the women he'd burned would pounce on him and tear him to pieces, damning him to an eternity of watching Fergie and an army of backup hoofers dance aggressively on chairs and throw sand in the air.
The Worst Number In The Entire Film: Actually, they all sound pretty much the same. But the musical number that feels the wrongest is a new one sung by Kate Hudson, whose role as a slutty Vogue reporter was created just to add star wattage to the film. As she assaults your senses in a sparkly tassel dress and go-go boots with "Cinema Italiano," a glitzy Euro pop ditty straight out of the dressing rooms at your local Express, take the opportunity to go on your mid-movie popcorn run. You'll keep your sanity that way.
Who Gets Points For Trying: Marion Cotillard, who won an Oscar two years ago as French songstress Edith Piaf in La vie en rose, brings a quiet rage as Guido's long-suffering wife, whose final outburst will have you cheering, "You go, girl!" Penelope Cruz, who won an Oscar for playing another crazy girlfriend in Vicky Cristina Barcelona, rocks a leggy wardrobe that consists mainly of lace teddies and fishnets and coos her way through a seductive phone sex number. That you wind up feeling sorry for both women in Guido's life is a testament to both Cotillard and Cruz's performances, and the overriding douchiness of the man they love.

Drone in Greenland
Drone in Greenland
Title: Drone in Greenland
Director: Guillaume Jouvet
Produced by: ETHZ
Running Time: 5:10 Minutes
Country: Switzerland
Year: 2017
Age Guideline:
Secondary School (12 - 16)
Category: Non-Verbal & Science Shorts
Screened In: Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, Gulf, Sudan, Egypt, Jordan, Palestine, India
The film shows how glaciologists use drones to monitor the calving – the breaking of large ice masses at the front of the tidal glacier. With aerial images created by drone flights, the scientists follow the movements of the ice masses and the formation of glacial clefts. This data is important to develop models that help to understand the process of ice breaking. The so-called calving is responsible for about half the mass loss of the Greenland ice sheet.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Officers who fatally shot an unarmed Connecticut woman after a high-speed car chase from the White House to the Capitol last fall will not face criminal charges, the Justice Department said Thursday.
Prosecutors who spent months investigating the shooting of Miriam Carey, 34, of Stamford, Connecticut, said they concluded that officers from the Secret Service and the Capitol Police did not use excessive force and did not have the criminal intent required for a prosecution.
The shooting on the afternoon of Oct. 3 ended a bewildering chain of events that spanned just minutes but put the Capitol, the Supreme Court and other buildings on Capitol Hill in a frantic lockdown. Her child was in the back seat of the car but was unharmed.
The U.S. Attorney's Office released a timeline Thursday providing the most detailed account to date of Carey's interaction with law enforcement.
Authorities said the incident began when the former dental hygienist drove into a well-marked White House checkpoint, ignored orders to stop and then struck a bike rack and an officer in her path. She then led officers on a chase toward the Capitol, at one point ramming a marked police cruiser and later veering onto a sidewalk in what prosecutors described as "reckless and evasive driving."
After striking the unmarked car of a Supreme Court police officer, prosecutors say, she revved her car engine, reversed the vehicle and drove directly at a Capitol Police officer who was approaching from behind. That officer and another officer from the Secret Service fired nine rounds each and Carey's car crashed into a kiosk and came to a rest. She was unconscious at the time and did not get out of the car, according to the account from prosecutors.
Carey suffered five gunshot wounds to her neck and torso, one of which was fatal, and was pronounced dead at a hospital, the authorities said.
Carey had been diagnosed with postpartum depression and psychosis. In the months before the Washington incident, she told police officers at her Connecticut apartment that President Barack Obama had communicated with her and had set up cameras to record her life for national news outlets, police said.
It is not clear why she came to Washington that day. She was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time, police have said.
To build a criminal prosecution, the government would have had to have proven that the officers used excessive force and willfully and intentionally broke the law by shooting her.
"Accident, mistake, fear, negligence and bad judgment do not establish such a criminal violation," the office of U.S. Attorney Ron Machen said in a statement.
Eric Sanders, a lawyer for Carey's family, said in a statement that the Justice Department's decision was not surprising and does not affect her family's legal position in a wrongful death lawsuit against the Secret Service and Capitol Police.

I'm just looking for some reassurance that DS is gaining well. Here is his growth so far:
birth: 6.6lbs
1 month: 8.8lbs
2 months: 11lbs
4 months: 13.2lbs
5 months: 13.9lbs
He is EBF. He dropped percentiles at his 4 month weight check, which incidentally coincided with his sleeping habits changing. Before he slept quite well but now he is waking very frequently to eat (typically ever 2 hours). His temperament also seems to have changed. He used to be a very quiet baby who rarely cried but now he looks for constant attention and screams whenever not eating or being held. When being held he is very pleasant and smiles and laughs.
My MIL has suggested several times that my milk is not sufficient for him and I feel under a lot of pressure from DH to switch to formula. I don't even want to supplement. DS eats often during the day, every 1-2 hours, once he might go 3 hours when he takes an afternoon nap. I don't pump so I don't know how to measure my supply. He certainly pees and poops a lot. I have noticed that I never wake up engorged, even on the rare occasion when he sleeps for 5-6 hours. Another thing that concerns me a little is that I have lost some weight (now 5lbs lighter than before pregnancy), could this be the culprit? I haven't been dieting and in fact I feel like I snack on chocolate biscuits all day! One other factor that seems to affect DS's feeding is DS1 who is two years old and rarely lets DS eat in peace. I sometimes feel like he stops eating because he gets distracted but is not finished and then refuses to continue.
So really I want to know if the weight gain seems reasonable. Should I be concerned about my supply?

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- John Edwards on Thursday stood beside his wife, Elizabeth, at the site of their wedding reception 30 years ago and said some of the most painful words a human being can utter: "Her cancer is back."
With that, the 2008 presidential campaign entered uncharted territory: A leading candidate will continue to live the public life of trying to win the White House while enduring the personal ordeal of watching his wife battle a deadly disease.
Thursday's announcement, at an inn near the campus where the couple met as law students, provided a glimpse of complex emotions while sparking a national debate over whether the couple should focus their energy on fighting the disease or remain in a grueling, around-the-clock campaign that can exhaust even the healthiest participants.
The Edwardses -- who were upbeat during their news conference but choked up at points -- surprised many people when they announced that his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination was not over.
"It goes on strongly," the former senator from North Carolina said. "From our perspective, other than sitting around feeling sorry for ourselves, there was no reason to stop."
The couple tried to strike an optimistic tone, even while revealing that Elizabeth Edwards' cancer -- first diagnosed in 2004 -- had spread from the breast into her bone, indicating that it was no longer curable. "Elizabeth will have this as long as she is alive," John Edwards said.
But, he said, the illness is treatable. "And many patients in similar circumstances have lived many years undergoing treatment," he said.
Many in the political world -- and in the large community of people whose lives have been touched by cancer -- responded with an outpouring of emotion.
Laura Farmer, a breast cancer survivor, said she wept while watching the televised news conference from her office in San Diego. "She's a role model for coping," said Farmer, a spokeswoman for Susan G. Komen for the Cure, a breast cancer foundation.
Andrew Sullivan, a conservative political commentator with HIV, wrote on his blog: "What I saw in this press conference was the reality of family values -- not the rhetoric, not the divisiveness, not the politics, just the reality of an actual family dealing with real issues."
As a practical matter, the announcement guarantees that Edwards' campaign will receive far more attention in the coming days than it has of late, as he has labored in the shadow of Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama.
The campaign sent out an e-mail Thursday afternoon indicating the couple still planned to attend a fundraiser tonight in Los Angeles. The candidate also was expected to stick to plans to attend two fundraisers Monday in the San Francisco Bay Area.
But the long-term political implications are uncertain. His wife's illness may engender sympathy and add an element of human interest to Edwards' campaign. But there is a risk: Some voters may regard his presidential bid as a misplaced priority, especially if his wife's condition deteriorates.
Democratic pollster Peter Hart said Edwards would have to strike a "delicate balance ... between a loving husband and an ambitious politician."
What's more, Edwards' campaign will be colored by the progress of his wife's disease. Having promised Thursday to be with her "anytime, anyplace" that she needs him, Edwards may have to make long detours home from the campaign trail.
Rep. Lois Capps (D-Santa Barbara), whose daughter died of lung cancer seven years ago, said she was surprised to hear Edwards say he would continue to campaign. But she likened his decision to her own decision to pour herself into legislative work after her daughter's death.
"You retreat or get going with renewed vigor," Capps said. "I decided to roll up my sleeves."
Though Edwards is not the first politician to cope with a loved one's grave illness, Thursday's announcement marked novel territory for presidential candidates, who already put severe strains on family life -- and on their own health -- by deciding to run.
One Edwards strategist, Dave "Mudcat" Saunders, said the couple's news motivated him to work harder. "Suddenly I went from 80 miles per hour to 200 miles per hour," Saunders said.
Saunders said Elizabeth Edwards was probably a driving force behind her husband's decision to remain in the race. "I know Elizabeth well enough to know that the last thing she would ever want is for John Edwards to step out of a race for her," he said.
The couple's news conference, televised from the grounds of an inn near the University of North Carolina, provided voters with a fresh glimpse of a close political couple who already had suffered a well-publicized family tragedy. In 1996, the couple's teenage son, Wade, died in a car accident.
Elizabeth, a former lawyer, is widely considered a great asset to Edwards' campaign. A close advisor, she is engaging -- and can be sharp-tongued and irreverent in interviews. She recently published a book, "Saving Graces," about coping with her son's death and her earlier bout with cancer -- a sign that the couple would talk openly about the disease during the campaign.
"Almost anything that puts the focus, any sort of focus, on Mrs. Edwards or raises the profile of Mrs. Edwards can only help the campaign, because she's just fantastic," said Gordon Fischer, former chairman of the Democratic Party in Iowa, a key early-voting state where Edwards seems to be the front-runner. Fischer described her as "down-to-earth, smart, funny."
Elizabeth Edwards found a breast lump during the final days of the 2004 presidential campaign, and was diagnosed with cancer two days after the election. She had several months of radiation and chemotherapy.
The couple said the spread of the cancer was discovered Wednesday, two days after she injured her back while lifting a heavy chest and a day after she broke her rib, apparently while her husband was hugging her. They said X-rays, biopsies and other tests confirmed a broken rib, and that the breast cancer had metastasized, or spread.
The Edwardses seemed upbeat and relaxed for a couple confronting a life-threatening disease that has ravaged the lives of millions of sufferers and their families.
Tanned and smiling, they stood side by side in the inn's manicured garden. They wore wireless microphones, avoiding the need for a more formal lectern, to address the bank of cameras and reporters that descended on the college town.
"As you can see, I don't look sickly; I don't feel sickly," Elizabeth said, spreading her arms.
John Edwards said his wife would continue campaigning with him. But he added that he would drop everything and rush to her side, "no matter what's happening in the campaign," if she needed him back home in Chapel Hill.
Reaction to the news underscored the fact that disease knows no party lines. White House Press Secretary Tony Snow, who had surgery in 2005 for colon cancer, praised Elizabeth Edwards for "setting a powerful example." Rudolph W. Giuliani, the GOP presidential candidate who survived prostate cancer, offered support.
"It is a very, very difficult thing, a very difficult burden, very frightening for anybody, no matter who you are," Giuliani said.
Many Democrats were reluctant to discuss the political implications of the development, regarding it as unseemly.
Edwards himself used the crisis to talk of the traits that he thinks would make him a strong president. Asked whether his wife's cancer would weaken his focus, he replied: "Anyone who wants to be president of the United States needs to understand and recognize that there will be very difficult and high-pressure times when judgments have to be made.... I think we've demonstrated how to deal with it."
Farmer of San Diego, herself a breast cancer survivor, agreed that the trauma of coping with cancer in a loved one could add to Edwards' appeal. "The experience creates a much more deep and sensitive individual," she said. "What a wonderful representative for the rest of us."
But Don Sipple, a Republican political strategist, warned that a protracted health struggle would put new strains on Edwards' candidacy.
"There will be a tremendous amount of empathy for both of them, but I think that will give way to cold reality," Sipple said. "He may have a difficult time being away from home as much as is required.
"Second, the political marketplace may conclude that he may not be viable because of the distraction."
Hook and Wallsten reported from Washington and Zucchino from Chapel Hill. Times staff writers Mark Z. Barabak and Dan Morain in California and Michael Finnegan in Washington contributed to this report.

The 16 teams competing at Saturday's N.C. Catfish Association Tournament Series contest at Lake Tillery got a rude awakening when they arrived 7 a.m. at the Swift Island ramp to find extremely muddy water.
The 16 teams competing at Saturday's N.C. Catfish Association Tournament Series contest at Lake Tillery got a rude awakening when they arrived 7 a.m. at the Swift Island ramp to find extremely muddy water.
Tillery is usually one of the last Yadkin River lakes to be affected by heavy rains, but its waters have been converted to an unsightly deep brown color by recent rain and ice storms. Blue cats favor clear lake conditions.
As a result, bites from big blues were scarce, though several teams managed to bring some cats of respectable size to the scales at the 3 p.m. weigh-in.
Eric and Dylan Fincher, both of Mt. Pleasant, and Mike Chandler placed first with two blues weighing 39.7 pounds with the biggest fish going 29.5 pounds. They received $300.
Incidentally, Doug Fincher currently holds the state record for blue catfish with an 89-pound monster taken from Badin Lake in 2006. After having the fish certified for record purposes, Fincher released the giant fish back into Badin.
Norwood's Tim Caviness and Albemarle's Robert Palmer claimed the second-place prize of $100 with two blues totaling 38.7 pounds. They also had the big fish of the day, a 34.06-pound blue that paid $160 plus the two fishermen won the side pot worth $200.
Chris Hammill of Kannapolis and Jeff King of Charlotte finished third with 36.00 pounds and received $80.
Claremont's Omar Edwards offers a tip for anglers seeking overlooked catfish waters.
"The last couple of years the fishing for big channel cats weighing more than 10 pounds has been excellent at Lake Hickory," said the NCCATS president. "A couple of flatheads have been caught as well which is unusual for Hickory."
The next stop for NCCATS is Feb. 23 at Mountain Island Lake out of Riverbend.
Local fishermen have an opportunity to win a guaranteed first-place prize of $5,000 this Saturday at the Carolinas Bass Challenge at Lake Norman presented by the Carolina Angler's Team Trail. The big-fish award is $1,000. Tournament hours are safe light to 3 p.m.
The entry fee is $200 per team plus a membership fee of $35 per person. Currently, 54 teams have prepaid to fish the event.
The Tarheel Striper Club will also be fishing at Norman this Saturday. The event may provide some insight about what's left of the striper fishery at the Duke Power Co. impoundment.
In recent years, the striper population at Norman has been dealt several severe blows by summer fish kills caused by excessive heat and poor oxygen levels.
The striper fishing has declined to the extent that former striper guides at the lake no longer take clients out to catch stripers. Instead, the guides now focus upon spotted bass, largemouth bass, and catfish.
Tarheel Striper Club member Jerry Hill of Lexington said he's not going to be able to fish the club event at Norman.
"I don't think I'll be missing very much," said Hill. "The stripers that are left in Norman appear to be mainly small fish. The same can be said of Badin Lake."
North Wilkesboro's Tracy Adams, who qualified for his second Bass Master Classic, left this past Wednesday for Grand Lake o' the Cherokee near Tulsa, Okla., to prepare for the Feb. 22-24 world championship of bass fishing.
"I fished the lake in November, and I liked what I saw," said Adams, who has a strategy in mind, but he's keeping it to himself for the moment.
Adams hopes the pre-Classic practice rounds will reaffirm his approach to fishing the tournament.
The Powers Swain Chevy Fish Team held its first tournament Feb. 10 at Shearon Harris Lake with morning temperatures hovering around 24-25 degrees.
"It should have been called 'The Frost Bowl,'" said tournament director Hal Abshire of Cameron.
Bobby Williams of Salisbury and Byong Lee of Stedman took first place with 11.68 pounds and the big-fish honors with a 7.27-pound bass.
Abshire and Ethan Cox of West End placed second with 11.10 pounds; Craig MacDonald of Fayetteville and Eugene Maynard of Morrisville ranked third with 7.88 pounds.
Tony Garitta is a fishing columnist for The Dispatch.

A 25-year-old Webster man allegedly confessed to robbing Southbridge Savings Bank of $2,490 Saturday, telling investigators his drug dealers were demanding their money.
David Porter, of 22 Myrtle Ave., Webster, was ordered held on $5,000 bail in Dudley District Court Monday on a charge of unarmed robbery. A plea of not guilty was entered on Mr. Porter�s behalf and his pretrial hearing was set for March 1. He was ordered to stay away from the bank.
Authorities got a call reporting a holdup alarm at the bank, at 257 Main St., about 10:30 a.m. Saturday, according to a police report by Detective Sgt. Carlos Dingui. Police were told a man had held up the bank, leaving with money.
About 5 p.m. Sunday, Mr. Porter, accompanied by his two sisters, turned himself in and confessed.
Mr. Porter allegedly told investigators he has a serious drug addiction.
Police said he gave them the following account.
Mr. Porter argued with his girlfriend about money on Saturday.
She had taken most of his money from his check to pay the monthly rent, leaving him without enough to buy drugs.
Meanwhile, his dealers were demanding to be paid the about $1,400 he owed them, and Mr. Porter was afraid they would go to his home, which he shares with his girlfriend and 2-year-old child.
Mr. Porter told his girlfriend he was going out to try to borrow money from friends. He left with her car.
He drove to a liquor store in Auburn and bought alcohol and scratch tickets.
When he did not win money on the ticket, he grew more frustrated because he had used his last $10.
He decided to drive to Southbridge to rob a bank. He told police he thought he lived far enough away from Southbridge that no one would recognize him.
Mr. Porter said he had visited Southbridge in the past and was familiar with the bank, which he circled to make sure the area was clear.
He then parked in the upper rear lot. With his hood over his head, he entered the bank from the rear entrance. He went to a counter toward the front of the bank and wrote �give me all your money� on a deposit slip.
There was no line, so Mr. Porter went to the nearest teller and handed her the note. She looked at it in shock and gave him the money.
Mr. Porter then walked out the same rear entrance, got into his car, drove home and stashed the money in his garage.
Later, he used the money to buy a meal at McDonald�s for his family, pay off his drug debts and buy more drugs.
That night he threw away the bank tags used to hold the money and the sneakers he wore during the robbery.
He told police he was wearing the same black sweater and jacket he wore during the robbery. Investigators seized the clothes as evidence.
When asked why he had turned himself in, Mr. Porter said he and his girlfriend had received several phone calls from friends saying the picture of the suspect published in media outlets looked like him.
Mr. Porter said he thought about the incident all day while at work for Custom Beverage Service in West Boylston.
While at a job site in Boston, he said, he saw his face on the front page of a newspaper.
He said he �broke down� and told his boss, who proceeded to fire him.
Mr. Porter said he spoke with his sisters, who made arrangements for him to turn himself in.
Police said that with the help of the bank manager, they got a clear surveillance photograph of the suspect�s face, which was given to several traditional media outlets as well as posted on social media websites.
Police said a tipster told them she attended school with Mr. Porter at Bay Path Regional Vocational High School in Charlton.

New look for Hub
Hope you like The Hub's new look. Your alumni newsletter still includes the same information as before, only more of it and in a new format. The new logo is taken from a design that was incorporated into the architecture of the college's Library, the center or "hub" of knowledge and learning at Walters State. "Hub" is also the nickname of the college's namesake, the late Sen. Herbert Walters.
Buda donates another $50,000
Another 50-plus freshmen at Walters State have Pigeon Forge's beneficent businessman to thank for their college tuition this fall. Z Buda has given the college another $50,000 to use for scholarships for deserving students. The gift brings Buda's lifetime total gifts to Walters State to nearly $700,000. He is by far the college's greatest private source of scholarship aid, and its most generous living donor. He also contributed $100,000 this year toward construction of the first building at the new Sevierville campus.
Housing acquired for WSCC athletes
The Senators Club has acquired two apartment buildings near the Morristown campus to house the college's student athletes. They purchased the apartments to solve a long-standing problem of WSCC athletes returning to campus late at night after away games and then having to travel long distances to get home.
Academic Centurions
As part of this year's Annual Fund Scholarship Campaign, the Walters State Foundation is initiating a new giving club called Academic Centurions. Academic Centurions will be donors who contribute $100 a year to the annual fund, and all of their contributions will be earmarked to support the college's two premier academic scholarships, namely the Presidential and the Walters State Scholars Program.
Centurions will be asked to pledge their $100 a year contributions for a 10-year period to allow for scholarship budgeting and will receive periodic updates on the college's academic programming. And for those counties that exceed 100 contributions, all those in excess of $100 will be restricted for use in that particular county.
The college's goal is to attract 100 Centurions per county for a total of 1,000 Centurions in the 10-county service area.
Information on becoming an Academic Centurion will be included with this year's Annual Fund mailing in November, but those who wish to become a part of the program may send a check made payable to the Walters State Foundation at P.O. Box 1508, Morristown, TN 37816 or P.O. Box 5094, Sevierville, TN 37864.

|College breaks ground in
With grateful appreciation for the more than $6 million contributed by local governmental bodies, corporations and private citizens, Walters State broke ground in September for its expansive new campus in Sevier County.
Rouse Construction Company of Knoxville will build the campus' first building on 67 acres at the corner of Pittman Center Road and Old Newport Highway. The site was donated several years ago by Sevierville librarian Mrs. Reese Ripatti.
The first building is expected to be completed in the spring of 2000.
"We are collectively witnessing a dream come true," said college president Dr. Jack Campbell during the groundbreaking ceremony. "(The new campus is) the result of a strong, unparalleled partnership between the citizens of Sevier County and Walters State...and there are many heroes whose vision and hard work have meant the difference between a pipe dream and a splendid reality."
Among those heroes, he identified Sevier County Executive Larry Waters and county commissioners, Pigeon Forge Mayor Ralph Chance and city commissioners, Sevierville Mayor Bryan Atchley and Board of Aldermen, and Gatlinburg Mayor George Hawkins and city commissioners. These four governing bodies contributed more than $4 million to the project.
Also recognized were individuals and representatives of local corporations whose gifts qualify them as major donors under the college's giving guidelines. They included Wilma Maples, Clara Ann Short, Mary Ellen Connor, Hattie Ogle McGiffin, the Luther Ogle family, Z Buda, Blalock Construction Company, Linda Ogle, Citizens National Bank, Geoff Wolpert, SunTrust Bank, Charlie Johnson, A.B. Blanton Jr. and Judge Gary Wade.
Dr. Campbell also gave special recognition to "two individuals who have given their hearts and souls to this project from its inception," James Hickman and Charlie Johnson, members of the college's Sevier County Development Council which provided leadership in the fund-raising process.
Four new programs added
Walters State has recently added several new programs: the Medical Coding Technical certificate program; the A.A.S. in Health Information Technology; a certificate program in Information Technology; and a Personal Chef program.
Students who complete the Medical Coding Technical certificate program will be eligible to sit for an exam to become certified coding specialists.
Students who complete the A.A.S. in Health Information Technology will be eligible for positions such as coders, directors, managers, supervisors, technicians, coordinators, consultants, analysts, and other positions related to health information in hospitals, physician offices and other healthcare settings.
The certificate program in Information Technology is designed to prepare an individual to work as a "generalist" in the computer and information technology field. This program is funded through a $300,000 grant from Microsoft Corp. and the American Association of Community Colleges.
And in Culinary Arts, a new program that will prepare students to work as personal chefs has been added. A fairly recent phenomenon, a personal chef goes into a client's home and prepares and freezes about two-weeks worth of gourmet food.

|President's Message
This is a traditional season of thanksgiving; and, as I reflect over the past several years, I am impressed by the many things for which all of us associated with Walters State should be thankful. So, in keeping with our Campus Compact, which proclaims that Walters State strives to be a grateful community, I wish to take this opportunity to express our appreciation to some of the folks who have made extraordinary contributions to the recent growth and development of our college.
First, I want to acknowledge and thank Jack Fishman, vice chairman of the Tennessee Board of Regents, Bo Henry, the previous vice chairman, and their colleagues on our governing board and also our system's chief executive officer Chancellor Charles Smith for recognizing and supporting Walters State's pressing need for a number of campus expansion projects over the past several years. Without this support, we could not have realized the dream of opening our beautiful new Library Building last year and our attractive and technologically advanced Natural Science Building this fall. We are also most appreciative of the high rankings which have been accorded to the completion projects for our Math-Science Building, our College Center, and Public Safety Center as well as the projected College Administration building, all of which were pre-planned in 1992 and will complete the original phase of our campus Master Plan in Morristown.
Next, I need to recognize the hard work and leadership exhibited by our East Tennessee state representatives and senators who have worked continuously with former Governor McWherter and Governor Sundquist in securing the funds for the aforementioned projects and the construction of the Walters State Great Smoky Mountains Expo Center and most recently the additional $3.65 million for the completion of the pavilion building and the erection of the horse barns, cattle sales arena, and other support structures which will make this one of the finest livestock exhibition centers in the southeast.
The business, civic, and governmental leadership and citizens of Greeneville and Greene County set a new standard in Tennessee for partnerships between state and local government and the private sector when the Town of Greeneville, the Greene County Commission, and the Walters State Foundation joined in a partnership to purchase the former Laughlin Hospital building to create a new Walters State downtown campus in Greeneville. We are indebted to all those whose hard work and vision made this new Greeneville/Greene County Center for Higher Education a reality.
And now the bar has been lifted once again as the municipal governments of Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, and Gatlinburg have joined with the Sevier County Commission and many private sector donors in contributing $6.5 million for a new Walters State branch campus in Sevier County. When you add this $6.5 million of local funding to the 67 acres of prime land contributed by Mrs. Reese Ripatti as the new branch campus site, you have an unprecedented, overwhelming demonstration of local support for a community college satellite campus.
Walters State is truly blessed by all of these supporters and others too numerous to mention. All of us who have built our educational careers around this college are grateful beyond words and, indeed, humbled by our good fortune in having so many generous and visionary friends. These individuals have made a lasting contribution not only to Walters State but, through our collective efforts, to this entire region.

|Talented recruits to help lead
basketball teams in 1998-99
This season, Senators basketball fans are likely to see several spectacular, high-flying slam dunks.
The 1998-99 Senators basketball team is one of the most athletic to ever play at the school, says Coach Bill Carlyle of this year's squad.
Two players surely to dazzle fans are Tehran Gary of Knoxville, a 6-foot-8-inch transfer from Hiwassee College, and Vincent Moore of Collierville, a 6-foot-7-inch transfer from Northwest Mississippi.
Two starters returning from last year are Harlie Schrader of Pulaski and K.J. Johnson of Alcoa.
Schrader averaged 14 points last year and was named to the TJCCAA All-Eastern Division, All-State and All Region VII teams.
Carlyle, who said this was one of the better recruiting years in a while, is also expecting major contributions from freshman A.J. Hamler of Chuckey Doak; Gary Seals of Morristown; Brian Dirl and Dedrick Elder of Knoxville; Jason Williams of Ripley; and Berford Whitson of Memphis.
"This is a hard-working group of players, and if we can put things together we'll have one of the better teams we've had in a while," Carlyle said.
Following an incredible season last year, the Lady Senators are again ranked in the NJCAA Top-20 preseason poll. They are ranked No. 20.
But Coach Dave Kragel is cautiously optimistic about this year's team.
"We've got good talent, but they've got some pretty big holes to fill," Kragel said, referring to last year's team. Four of the five starters from last year's team are now playing at NCAA Division I schools. This year's lone returning starter is Shalene Haire of Greeneville, who is an outstanding outside shooter. At last year's national tournament, she hit seven three-pointers in a row in one game.
Joining Haire this year is sophomore Scealita Drennon, whom Dick Vitale named one of the top 20 prospects in junior college play. A transfer who will bring college-play experience is Alison Bach of Morristown, who was named to the All-Western Athletic Conference team while playing at Montana State last year.
Leading the Lady Senators at point guard will be sophomore Micah Smith of Rutledge.
Kragel hopes that Smith and Haire will provide experience and leadership to a talented but inexperienced team.

Now that's impressive--you're a REAL diehard fan! I've only been a fan for about 5 years now.
But I'm going to Vegas to see GSP and BJ Penn in UFC 94 and I am SO psyched!!!
Oh that's very cool! I would love to see that fight in person. I've only been to one in person, UFC 77 Anderson Silva vs. Rich Franklin. I've been involved in Martial Arts myself most of my life and read something about the UFC in a martial arts mag after the first one. It was little known back then, but interesting to me because they always billed it as style vs. style fights....Kung-Fu vs. Karate, boxing vs. wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu vs. everything, a sumo wrestler vs. Kenpo, and no weight classes. So it got a lot of peoples attention who were into martial arts and wanting to see which style was the best back then. It did a lot to expose some weaknesses and to show some strengths of different styles. Everyone seems to cross train in stand-up and grappling nowadays whether they're training for MMA or just self-defense or whatever... It's changed a lot since then and has become more safe for the athletes and more mainstream in popularity. But anyway I'm gonna shut up now before I completely hijack this thread and take it further off topic.
Nice photos of everyone

MPNS COST Action MP1003
European Scientific Network for Artificial Muscles (ESNAM)
The objective of this Action is to foster and accelerate long-term advancement of 'artificial muscle' science and technology based on electroactive polymers (EAPs) as smart actuation materials, through a scientific network among leading European institutions and industries. Research and development on EAP materials and devices is a well established scientific field, bridging material science, mechanical and electrical engineering, and medical disciplines. In Europe, a number of world-leading research institutes with consolidated expertise in this field have formed an informal network, called ESNAM. A COST Action intends to provide content and form to this network through coordination of mutual research activities and creation of a common platform for education, dissemination, early-stage researcher training, standardisation of methods, techniques and processes, along with industrial exploitation. This will represent, at global level, the first example of its kind, able to strengthen the impact of European science and technology. Partners involved in this Action intend to stretch forward their networking activities well beyond the inevitably limited time frame of this Action, especially by preparing a road-map aimed at merging both research and industrial perspectives and needs, so as to properly target the wide-spread use of the EAP technologies in the European industry.

Lightning's anger pays off, eliminate Canadiens
Enough was enough.
Jon Cooper saw the anger in his Tampa Bay Lightning players after they lost Game 5 against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday.
Elation became the overriding emotion in the Lightning dressing room on Tuesday night.
Tampa finally rid itself of the hockey ghosts that lingered from a 2014 playoff sweep at the hands of the Canadiens, sending the Habs home for the summer with a 4-1 victory in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference second-round series.
It was none other than captain Steven Stamkos who scored the winning goal, coming on a play in the second period that was typical Stamkos. He had answered questions in the playoffs about his health and his lack of goal scoring, but there was Stamkos putting the Lightning on his back in a crucial game.
"I've always talked about how 2011 (the Lightning's most recent trip to the conference final) was the most fun I've ever had playing this game," Stamkos said. "We're getting right on that right now. I want a little better result this time, but this group has been resilient all year. We've got a guy like (Ben) Bishop back in the net; we've got to believe that anything is possible here. We're excited."
Tampa's clincher came after a pair of losses, and the club has advanced to the conference final for the third time in franchise history. Four years ago, the Lightning lost in seven games to the Boston Bruins, who went on to win the Stanley Cup; in 2004, the Lightning beat the Philadelphia Flyers in seven games and then triumphed over the Calgary Flames for the franchise's lone Cup title.
The victory should serve as a warning to Tampa's next opponent. The conference final will start on Saturday, but Tampa won't know who it will play until Game 7 of the New York Rangers-Washington Capitals is done on Wednesday.
At the same time the Triplets Line of Tyler Johnson between Ondrej Palat and Nikita Kucherov (which has scored 17 of the team's 34 playoff goals) is steaming along, Stamkos is finding his stride.
The Lightning's third-round foe will get a team that has been growing through the playoffs. When the Lightning won in Game 7 in the first round against the Detroit Red Wings, it was not the better group that night.
Before a capacity crowd of 19,204 at Amalie Arena, it spanked the Canadiens with its best performance of the series.
"Sometimes you play poorly and win and you are a little bit nervous that happened," Cooper said. "And sometimes you start playing well and you lose. I just remember after Game 5, everyone saying the pressure is on us, we have dropped two … but the calm I had inside myself about this team, I just felt our game was changing. The look in the players' eyes after that game, I knew these guys were going to roll."
Afterward, Canadiens coach Michel Therrien appeared to be as spent as his players. His team outshot the Lightning in the previous five games, but that didn't matter.
"You have to give the Lightning a lot of credit," Therrien said. "They played their best game of this series. I felt physically and mentally, we were drained. It's disappointing.
"I don't think we lost the series tonight. I thought we played really well in Game 1, thought we deserved a better fate — Game 3, same thing. You should win those games. Eventually, it catches up."
Stamkos got the deciding goal when he fired the puck through defenceman Jeff Petry and past Carey Price early in the second. Kucherov, who would later score into an empty net, deflected a Palat shot in the first past Price; Palat scored in the second thanks to a great five-foot pass from Kucherov.
Max Pacioretty scored for Montreal late in the third.
Tampa rallied around the absence of Ryan Callahan, who had an emergency appendectomy on Monday night. Jonathan Marchessault took the roster spot of Callahan, who is out indefinitely.
"We had Cally's name up on the board before the game as a little inspiration, and guys stepped up," Stamkos said. "Everyone had a great game, and that's why we got the result."

Studio 3BMarch August 2010Mixed media/installation/drawing/photographyAoife Collins interdisciplinary practice explores the transience and mutability of objects, ideas and public personas, especially the filtering down from highbrow to popular culture and the inherent changes of form and meaning that occur in these circumstances. In effect, her practice reflects on how history, culture and fashion collide, and on the multitude of different strategies of communication. Collins work looks at the navigation of our cultural landscape, how cultural paraphernalia and ideas are disseminated and resonate with wide audiences. In regards to materials, objects and images, Collins questions their function, their potentiality to escape their positioning, and their ability to take on new identities. Collins received a BA from the National College of Art and Design, Dublin, followed by an MA from Chelsea College of Art and Design, London. Selected residencies include Location One, New York; Skowhegan, USA, and Scottish Sculpture Workshop, Scotland.

(THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. – Nov. 26, 2012) Veteran actor Stacy Keach will discuss his long and successful career from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7, at California Lutheran University.
Keach will speak before students and community members in the Preus-Brandt Forum as part of the free "Conversations With …" series. Actor and director Markus Flanagan, who teaches at CLU, will moderate an informal one-hour discussion on the craft of acting. A question-and-answer session with the audience will follow.
Although Keach is best known for his TV portrayal of the hard-boiled detective Mike Hammer, he has a long list of stage and screen credits as well. During the last year, he starred in the critically acclaimed "Other Desert Cities" on Broadway and appeared in the summer blockbuster "The Bourne Legacy."
A Fulbright scholar to the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, Keach began his professional career in 1964 with the New York Shakespeare Festival. He received three Obie Awards for his off-Broadway performances in the 1960s and 1970s. More recently, he received three Helen Hayes Awards, which honor theater productions in Washington, D.C., for his lead roles in "The Kentucky Cycle" in 1994, "Frost/Nixon" in 2009 and "King Lear" in 2010.
His television series roles have included Ken Titus in "Titus" from 2000 to 2002, Warden Henry Pope in "Prison Break" from 2005 to 2007, and Pops in "Lights Out" in 2011. He won a Golden Globe for his performance of the title role in the 1988 miniseries "Hemingway." His many guest roles have included Chelsea's gay father on "Two and a Half Men" and the father of Marty Weaver on the Thanksgiving episode of the new series "The Neighbors."
Keach began his film career in 1968 in "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" and starred as over-the-hill boxer Billy Tully in the 1972 movie "Fat City" directed by John Huston. His many other movies include "Doc," "Luther" and "Honeydripper."
Born with a cleft lip that was repaired, Keach is the honorary chairman of the Cleft Palate Foundation.
The "Conversations With …" talks provide theatre arts students and other aspiring actors with advice from professionals. They take the approach laid out in Flanagan's book, "One Less Bitter Actor: The Actor's Survival Guide," which explains how to make it in the business of acting while staying sane and focused.
Farm Fresh Clothing Co. is sponsoring the free 2012-2013 series.
Preus-Brandt Forum is located south of Olsen Road near Mountclef Boulevard on the Thousand Oaks campus. For more information, call 805-493-3415 or email email@example.com.
