Taskeen finds her voice through Street League
Kasey Dunn
Taskeen first came to Street League in July 2018 and was struggling with anxiety, depression and anger. She would struggle to take part in sessions and communicate with others in the class. Even just being in a session made Taskeen feel anxious. Taskeen was also unsure of what she wanted to do with her future. She started taking part in dance sessions but slowly started to show interest in football. She now plays football every day and she absolutely loves it. Due to the sports sessions, Taskeen decided she wanted to pursue a career in sports coaching. At this point, Taskeen showed commitment and wanted to create a CV and practice her interview skills. She has now been for a meeting with Inspiring the Young, an organisation that coaches the younger generation in football. Taskeen is due to start there is the new year and until her start date will attend Street League to play football (she doesn't want to leave now)
Initially, we met with Taskeen often to ensure that she was feeling comfortable in class. She was able to take breaks away from the group when she needed them. There was no pressure put on Taskeen to take part in discussions. Following her first review, Taskeen explained that she was enjoying Street League and felt less anxious. At this point, Taskeen was encouraged to take part in discussions and soon enough was contributing independently. We continued to complete reviews with Taskeen and this is when we established her next steps and goals to become a sports coach.
Taskeen is looking forward to starting her coaching training in January and is ready for the next chapter in her life. Taskeen will continue to visit Street League and is thankful for everything that they have done.
Taskeen wrote a rap for the Street League Birmingham team:
"I was a little cub lost and alone, but street league made me a leader of my own, confidence is something that's grown, and I've raised my game, I've achieved my aim, now it's time to move on, when I say I've raised my game, thanks to Renaldo who motivated me on the pitch, thanks to John who gave me this opportunity, thanks to Anna and Marie for their loyalty and thanks to Ash and Paris, two enthusiastic people who shed light and helped me overcome my anxiety, thanks to Sabina for always being there for me, always had my back and always was supportive, all of you have been there for me since the start, and now I leave with a place in my heart for Street League, a company in a league of their own."

What Therapists Are Telling Trauma Survivors After 'Leaving Neverland'
There's a lot to unpack and learn from James Safechuck's and Wade Robson's sexual abuse allegations against Michael Jackson in the new HBO doc.
ByBrittany Wong
Taylor Jewell/Invision/AP
(From left) Wade Robson, director Dan Reed and James Safechuck of "Leaving Neverland." In the documentary, Robson and Safechuck come forward with detailed allegations of sexual abuse by Michael Jackson when they were children.
K.L Randis, an author and sexual abuse survivor, said she had knots in her stomach while watching much of "Leaving Neverland," a two-part HBO documentary in which James Safechuck and Wade Robson detail allegations of sexual abuse against Michael Jackson.
There were knots when the two men spoke of how having sons was the catalyst for them to come forward with their claims. Imagining the same thing happening to their boys was not only unbearable but also reminded them of their own innocence as children ― innocence they say was stolen by Jackson in the late 1980s and early '90s.
Randis, the author of Spilled Milk ― a novel inspired by her own sexual abuse ― looks at her daughters, ages 6 and 4, now and thinks the same thing.
"It's hard to imagine [my father] making the conscious decision to abuse me," she told HuffPost. "James said he didn't have sympathy for himself as a child, and I agree. I see myself in my daughters, and it pains me to know I was the same, sweet child who just trusted the world I grew up in as normal."
K.L. Randis
Author K.L. Randis as an adult and as a child. She wrote the novel Spilled Milk, which was inspired by her sexual abuse as a child.
Moments like those that Randis experienced through the documentary ― of feeling seen and reliving the fallout of sexual abuse ― have been happening often since the film debuted on HBO on March 3, said Silva Neves, a London-based psychotherapist who specializes in sexual trauma therapy.
"So many of Robson and Safechuck's experiences are resonating with people — being made to feel special and loved by an abuser, being told that the abuse is a way of showing love and that if they told anyone, there would be terrible consequences for them," Neves said.
It's a heavy documentary for anyone, which is why mental health counselors were reportedly on hand for audiences at an early screening of it at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah in January.
If you've experienced sexual trauma, there are a few things you should know before watching the doc. Below, Randis, Neves and other trauma therapists share the topics they're discussing with their clients in the wake of the film.
It's OK not to watch if you worry it will be too triggering
Depending on your stage of healing, the documentary may or may not be for you, said Robert Cox, a therapist in Richmond, Missouri, who specializes in sexual trauma. He said he has recommended that a few of his patients avoid seeing it. While one trauma survivor might find it cathartic and akin to group therapy to revisit their experiences through Safechuck's and Robson's stories, it might be unsettling for others.
"Often in doing trauma work, reliving the experience can be retraumatizing," he said. "It can push you into a dissociative state and further traumatize them. So it really becomes a case-by-case thing."
Talking about sexual trauma helps, even if you haven't come to grips with every part of your story
Safechuck and Robson, who were 10 and 7, respectively, when the alleged abuse started, were slow to tell their families about it. Later in life, they both dismissed the idea of therapy, and Robson said he covered up the sexual nature of his relationship with Jackson when he finally did go.
Watching the documentary ― and a follow-up interview with Oprah Winfrey on HBO and OWN ― you get the sense that Robson has made more progress with unpacking what he went through. Safechuck admits he has a long way to go. Their willingness to talk it through is a vital lesson for trauma survivors, Neves said.
"Some survivors think, `If I can't make sense of it myself, how can I start a conversation about it with someone else?" he said. "Both James and Wade said that it was easier not to talk about it because they couldn't make sense of it."
But it's common for survivors of abuse not to have a coherent narrative or for them to have some memories missing or parts of their story they doubt. That's OK, Neves said; a counselor or survivor advocate can still offer support and maybe even supply you with the language to talk about it.
"Survivors of sexual abuse do not need to forgive their abusers or those who have willfully enabled the abuse [in order to heal]. True healing can happen without it."
- Silva Neves, a London-based psychotherapist who specializes in sexual trauma therapy
It's OK to feel a sense of guilt for outing your abuser
In the follow-up interview, Safechuck discusses the continued guilt he feels about coming forward with his story and outing Jackson, who outside of the abuse, became a sort of a second father figure in his life.
"I felt guilt this weekend, like I let him down," Safechuck tells Winfrey. "That shadow, that guilt is still there."
That moment ― and the fear of having their secret uncovered as boys (Jackson allegedly told them they would go to jail if anyone found out) ― hit Randis particularly hard.
"When James said he panicked over that, I flashed back to my days in court when they would parade my father into the courtroom when I was up on the stand," Randis said.
"His lawyer would stand right in front of him when he asked me questions, forcing me to look at him or in his direction to intimidate me, and there was an overwhelming feeling of guilt outing him in a room full of strangers," she said.
Ultimately, Randis realized her guilt was misplaced.
"The majority of guilt I felt was tied up in telling other people 'our' secret, but really, it was my abuser's secret."
Forgiveness is not necessary for healing
Toward the end of the documentary, Safechuck is asked if he has forgiven his mother for allowing the alleged abuse to happen. He admits he's not quite there yet ― something he reiterates with poignancy in the Winfrey interview.
"Forgiveness is not a line you cross. It's a road you take," he says.
That nuanced take on forgiveness is a great reminder that working through your emotional trauma doesn't need to include absolving others for their involvement, Neves said.
"Forgiveness is perceived as the ultimate productive thing to do, and sometimes, it's seen as the superior thing to do," he said. "The truth is, survivors of sexual abuse do not need to forgive their abusers or those who have willfully enabled the abuse. True healing can happen without it."
It's an important takeaway, since some survivors are reluctant to start therapy, fearing their therapist will push a quick-fix road to forgiveness. Not true, Neves said.
"Of course, I believe that there is great value in having someone like a therapist or survivor advocate that can help you process your feelings and validate your experiences. But this is not something that can be prescribed or mandated by others."
- Stefani Goerlich, a therapist in Detroit
Don't let others dictate when and how you come forward
The response from Jackson fans to the documentary has, rather predictably, been aggressive. Robson talks about getting a death threat the day before he did the Winfrey interview, and Twitter is full of the singer's fans trying to discredit the two men.
Seeing accusers taken down in such a public way might cause some survivors to pull back — refrain from talking to the police, for instance, or discontinue their search for mental help resources. It's frightening enough to come forward with allegations even without that, said Stefani Goerlich, a therapist in Detroit.
"I have sat in on dozens and dozens of police interviews with sexual abuse and assault survivors," she said. "The strength it takes to endure this kind of invasive experience after already experiencing such an intimate violation is one that I greatly admire."
But if you do feel capable and willing to report or talk about your assault, don't let fear of what others might think deter you, Goerlich said.
"Don't ever let anyone make you feel bad about doing what's best for you," she said. "Of course, I believe that there is great value in having someone like a therapist or survivor advocate that can help you process your feelings and validate your experiences. But this is not something that can be prescribed or mandated by others."
Ultimately, she said, "you set the pace for your healing, and you decide what justice looks like for you."

This was one of those simple recipes that simply wasn't enough. I didn't mean the amount of noodles here, but the amount of flavor. I needed more of the lemony taste, otherwise this was just plain egg noodles with the slightest pinch of lemon and herbs. I noted the few additions in the ingredient listing, in which I highly recommend, even if your protein had a lot of flavor to it.
The recipe came from the cookbook Fine Cooking Annual, serving four.
Boil the noodles in generously salted water according to package directions. Just before draining, scoop out about 1/4 cup of the cooking water. Drain the noodles; set aside.
Put the pan you used to cook the noodles over medium heat, add the butter, lemon juice, and about 2 tbsp of the reserved cooking water, and swirl to combine. Add the noodles and toss gently but thoroughly to coat, adding a touch more of the cooking water if necessary. Remove from the heat. Season generously with salt and pepper, add the herbs, zest, and scallions (if using), and toss once more to mix. (I sprinkled the shredded parmesan here.) Serve immediately.


A lady's navel (hanım göbeği) or woman's navel (kadın göbeği) is a type of sweet pastry from Turkey. They are made from balls of choux pastry which are given a dimple, deep-fried and then soaked in syrup. Although the original form of the pastry apparently bore little resemblance to a woman's navel (belly button) other than the depressed point or dimple in the center, many modern versions, especially ones created in the United States and United Kingdom since the 1990s, have been intentionally designed to resemble a woman's belly button. Features included for this visual and sensory effect include placing dark-colored power, often cocoa power, inside the dimple to resemble dirt or gunk inside the belly button, moulding the interior of the dimple itself to somewhat resemble lumps of umbilical cord tissue, and even inserting either edible or inedible decorations around the dimple to represent navel piercing jewelry.

Circulation. 2014 Dec 23;130(25):e436.
In recent years, a wider use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to treat out-of-hospital cardiac arrest was advocated in The Netherlands. We aimed to establish whether survival with favorable neurologic outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest has significantly increased, and, if so, whether this is attributable to AED use.
We performed a population-based cohort study, including patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from cardiac causes between 2006 and 2012, excluding emergency medical service-witnessed arrests. We determined survival status at each stage (to emergency department, to admission, and to discharge) and examined temporal trends using logistic regression analysis with year of resuscitation as an independent variable. By adding each covariable subsequently to the regression model, we investigated their impact on the odds ratio of year of resuscitation. Analyses were performed according to initial rhythm (shockable versus nonshockable) and AED use. Rates of survival with favorable neurologic outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest increased significantly (N=6133, 16.2% to 19.7%; P for trend=0.021), although solely in patients presenting with a shockable initial rhythm (N=2823; 29.1% to 41.4%; P for trend<0.001). In this group, survival increased at each stage but was strongest in the prehospital phase (odds ratio, 1.11 [95% CI, 1.06-1.16]). Rates of AED use almost tripled during the study period (21.4% to 59.3%; P for trend <0.001), thereby decreasing time from emergency call to defibrillation-device connection (median, 9.9 to 8.0 minutes; P<0.001). AED use statistically explained increased survival with favorable neurologic outcome by decreasing the odds ratio of year of resuscitation to a nonsignificant 1.04.
Increased AED use is associated with increased survival in patients with a shockable initial rhythm. We recommend continuous efforts to introduce or extend AED programs.

Coubertin Speaks
Coubertin Quote for Jun, 30
The art of the spectacle and the concern for technical perfection have been combined by you, Gentlemen of the Swedish Committee, in the most brilliant and successful way.
In the opinion of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the Olympic Movement achieved its first notes of true perfection at the Games of the Fifth Olympiad in 1912 in Stockholm, Sweden. In his closing message to the Swedish hosts, the Baron was full of praise. Jim Thorpe's legendary performance in the decathlon and pentathlon had marked the athletic excellence of the Games, and the Baron was equally pleased that his vision for integrating cultural and sporting competitions finally reached fruition in Stockholm. This quote is excerpted from the Baron's closing remarks, which were reprinted in the Olympic Review in September 1912.
"The hour has struck for the closing of this splendid festival ... of the Vth Olympiad. It leaves us sunny memories, not only because Swedish earth and water have decked themselves out for us with all the enchantments of a radiant summer, but because the art of the spectacle and the concern for technical perfection have been combined by you, Gentlemen of the Swedish Committee, in the most brilliant and successful way. Power and money are far from enough to make an Olympiad; perseverance, patience and tolerance are necessary."

When The Simpsons first turned pop culture on its head, it caused mild controversy because its rebellious child character said "damn" and "hell." Nearly 30 years later, the animation icon has been facing a more culturally significant backlash surrounding the use of Indian character Apu Nahasapeemapetilon. After months without confirmed resolutions, it was recently reported that The Simpsons' thinktank was aiming to take Apu off the show altogether. This is when showrunner and longtime executive producer Al Jean spoke up.
Al Jean mentioned Indian-American producer Adi Shankar, one of the names behind Dredd and Netflix's Castlevania TV series, among other projects. Shankar is the one who claimed that multiple sources confirmed to him that The Simpsons was excising Apu altogether. Usually, this would be a point where fans could start assuming that Shankar was misinformed, but Jean's tweet doesn't exactly deny anything. Nor does it lay Shankar out to be particularly untrustworthy. It just says that Shankar isn't a Simpsons spokesman.
The first part of Al Jean's tweet seemed to be a jab at publications that erroneously referred to Adi Shankar as a producer for The Simpsons, which made him seem to be a lot more in the know than he actually was. Again, considering Jean didn't outright refute Shankar's claims, it's interesting he addressed it on Twitter at all. Even if it was only to make that correction, it was a timely choice.
At this point, it's anybody's guess what will happen next. Al Jean could soon respond, the two could meet, and the Apu situation could work out amazingly well for all involved. Or, more likely, something else will happen.
They're going to drop the Apu character altogether. They aren't going to make a big deal out of it, or anything like that, but they'll drop him altogether just to avoid the controversy.
If The Simpsons is planning on permanently writing Apu off of the show, it's not out of the question that Al Jean took umbrage with the claim that it wouldn't be a big deal, and/or that it would be done just to avoid the angry fans. It's possible there will be a gigantic celebratory send-off. Or, knowing how The Simpsons works, they might introduce five alternate-universe versions of Apu as regular characters who never leave.
Adi Shankar joined the already ongoing conversation about Apu by launching a submission-based contest to find the perfect spec script to fix the "Apu problem," a phrase taken from comedian Hari Kondabolu's influential documentary The Problem with Apu. That documentary pulled together and solidified viewpoints than many have voiced over the years about how strong a role Apu has had in strengthening negative Indian stereotypes in pop culture. Efforts by Shankar and others have kept those talks going, with the eventual goal being a permanent change on The Simpsons itself.
Al Jean's tweet marks the latest in relatively few instances where Simpsons cast and crew members have publicly addressed the conversational backlash that has risen around Apu. (Even South Park took shots at the longtime Fox hit over it on a recent episode.) Following one episode's open-ended (and widely derided) response to those asking for changes to be made, co-creator Matt Groening responded to the pushback by saying that people love to get offended. But he'd also defended the character's placement to the New York Times, though he also admitted there wasn't a proper way to approach it anymore.
Well, I love Apu. I love the character, and it makes me feel bad that it makes other people feel bad. But on the other hand, it's tainted now --- the conversation, there's no nuance to the conversation now. It seems very, very clunky. I love the character. I love the show.
Of course, longtime Simpsons writer Mike Reiss pointed out in May that the show technically hasn't given Apu more than a handful of lines in the past handful of seasons. (Something that Matt Groening echoed in his interview.) He'd addressed to Vanity Fair that the writers were already aware of growing concerns about Apu since before Hari Kondabolu's documentary was announced.
Though there's a lot of discussion on Apu, he's barely had a line in the past three seasons. Hank Azaria saying he won't voice the character anymore is like Val Kilmer announcing he won't play Batman again---no one's asking him to.
Meanwhile, Apu voice actor Hank Azaria has been more cautious, making it clear that he isn't trying to offend anyone, while also refraining from speaking negatively about a beloved character he's played for over half of his life. He did say that if the character does remain a part of Springfield's elite, he'd love to see an actor from South Asia take over the voice work.
While the actual show likely isn't going to team up with Adi Shankar in the immediate future, the producer is moving forward with the winning contribution form his spec script contest. (It was sent in by Maryland doctor Vishaal Buch.) Shankar will be producing the short through his Bootleg Universe branding on YouTube, where he's released other viral content like the super-violent short films centered on the Power Rangers and The Punisher.
The Simpsons airs Sunday nights on Fox at 8:00 p.m. ET. To see what new and returning shows are on the way soon, head to our fall TV premiere schedule.

'Mario Tennis Aces' was the month's biggest-selling game.
June was a pretty great month for Nintendo, as it was the month's top-selling games publisher; Mario Tennis Aces was the biggest-selling title even without counting its digital sales. And, because we'll never not want to play Super Mario Bros., more people bought the NES Classic Edition than any other console.
Nintendo initially revived the NES in 2016 and it almost killed the Classic Edition for good before releasing another batch at the tail end of June. NPD's reporting period for the month lasted from 6/3 until 7/7, so it took just over a week of sales for NES to take the top spot.
NPD started tracking game sales data in 1995, and this is the first time an NES system has been the top dog since then -- that's the same year Nintendo discontinued the NES in North America. Sales were up in June compared with the same period last year for all current-gen systems. The PS4 actually won the month in terms of dollar sales -- it costs $300, compared with $60 for Nintendo's system.
Still, nothing could shake the NES Classic Edition for pure volume, which leads us to wonder why exactly Nintendo ever considered shelving the console for good. Maybe it was a supply-and-demand marketing ploy. Maybe Nintendo hoped more people would pick up a Switch instead. Or maybe it just doesn't know a good thing when it sees one.

Nondisclosure agreements under scrutiny in California | The Mirroknian Law Firm, P.C.
On behalf of The Mirroknian Law Firm, PC posted in Sexual Harassment on Wednesday, December 6, 2017.
Sexual harassment is getting more attention in the news this year, as several industries appear to be rife with previously untold inappropriate behavior by male supervisors and colleagues. An integral part of the problem appears to be the system of restrictions that attempted to keep these allegations from the public.
Nondisclosure agreements (NDAs), are often basic parts of employment contracts. They have several uses, such as the preservation of corporate secrets and intellectual property, but they are now under legal scrutiny in California and other states, where victims of sexual harassment have found themselves silenced by NDAs.
State legislatures in Sacramento, as well as New York and Pennsylvania, have considered laws banning confidentiality clauses, which can ban workers from reporting sexual harassment outside of the company until an internal mechanism such as arbitration has occurred. An employment attorney believes these clauses "can effectively gag speech about a matter of genuine public concern."
Sexual harassment claims surrounding the entertainment business in Hollywood included several reports of lawyers and supervisors pressuring victims to sign NDAs and stop the process of reporting sexual harassment, employment discrimination and other gender-based inappropriate behavior. Journalists and lobbyists have also claimed they were silenced in this way.
Victims of sexual harassment cannot be legally silenced if they are seeking the end of this behavior or restitution for lost wages, reduced opportunities and other results of this scourge. An attorney can help victims discover the proper way forward through the legal system to prevent, end and make up for abuse.

Blackpool MP calls for Tourism Enterprise Zone
Tuesday, 2 July, 2019
Blackpool North and Cleveleys MP Paul Maynard has called on Government to deliver a new tourism enterprise zone for Blackpool as part of a deal to support the industry across the UK.
Ministers Greg Clark and Jeremy Wright last week announced the Government's Tourism Sector Deal, designed to deliver a major boost to the sector. And Mr Maynard is hoping to see specific support delivered for Blackpool, to help ensure innovation and boost the visitor economy.
He said: " I am pleased to see the Government supporting the tourism industry which is so important for our town. Alongside plans to deliver 30,000 new apprenticeships, commitments on the environment an accessibility, there is a proposal to introduce new tourism zones.
"The two enterprise zones established on the Fylde coast are already helping bring new jobs and opportunities to the area. I hope the same principal can be applied to the tourism industry, creating an atmosphere in which businesses in Blackpool can innovate and expand, helping regenerate our town."
Mr Maynard believes a tourism enterprise zone could deliver results alongside other targeted investment. He continues to work hard in support of the Blackpool Prospectus, a broad package of measures which make up a 20-year vision for the future of the town.
He said: "Investment in tourism is key. Equally we need to work hard to diversify our economy, to help Blackpool move away from a seasonal economy, to bring skilled jobs to our town. We need to improve our transport infrastructure, our housing and our education, to ensure opportunities are available for people in Blackpool.
"I have been meeting with Ministers from a range of Government departments, to lobby for investment in Blackpool, to make the case for our town."

Olympic Winter Games
Meet Team USA: Evan Lysacek
Evan Lysacek is the 2009 World Champion. At the 2010 U.S. Championships in Spokane, Wash., the two-time U.S. Champion (2007 and 2008) finished second, improving from his third place standing a year earlier. He has had an impressive season that included a win at Skate America and the Grand Prix Final. Here is what you need to know about Lysacek heading into the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver, Canada:
Name Evan Lysacek
Birthday June 4, 1985
Birthplace Chicago, Ill.
Hometown Naperville, Ill.
Training Town El Segundo, Calif.
Coach Frank Carroll
Choreographer Lori Nichol
Getting his start Eight year old Lysacek was signed up for skating lessons after his grandma, who wanted to be in the Ice Capades, bought him skates for Christmas. At first, he wanted to play hockey, but later discovered his love for the thrill of figure skating, including the speed. "I loved being a dare devil," Lysacek said.
International personal bests He set all three of his personal bests at the 2009 Grand Prix Final. He scored 249.45 points overall, which is the highest score ever recorded by an American man in international competition. His short program received 89.85 and his free skate was awarded 159.60.
Key results 2010 U.S. Championships, 2nd; 2009 Grand Prix Final, 1st; 2009 Skate America, 1st; 2009 Cup of China, 2nd; 2009 World Championships, 1st; 2009 Four Continents Championships, 2nd; 2009 U.S. Championships, 3rd; 2008 Skate Canada, 3rd; 2008 Skate America, 3rd; 2008 U.S. Championships, 1st; 2007 Grand Prix Final, 3rd; 2007 Four Continents Championships, 1st; 2007 U.S. Championships, 1st; 2006 Cup of China, 1st; 2006 World Championships, 3rd; 2006 Olympic Winter Games, 4th; 2006 U.S. Championships, 2nd; 2005 World Championships, 3rd
Fancy footwork The highlight of Lysacek's programs are his electrifying step sequences. Skated full-out and building with the music's crescendo, the element usually earns the highest score from the judges and brings the audience to its feet. But what could make or break his competition is the quad. He plans to perform it in his free skate in Vancouver even though he fell on it at the 2010 U.S. Championships.
Star on ice In the spring, Lysacek will join the Smucker's Stars on Ice tour, which starts April 1 in Fort Myers, Fla., and ends May 30 in Portland, Ore. It will be his first full stint with Stars. In 2006, he was a full-time cast member with the Champions on Ice tour.
Model material Lysacek's sense of style extends off the ice. In the summer of 2007, he began working with the Public Image Modeling Agency, and he is now represented by DNA Models. Lysacek is a model for Ralph Lauren, which is an official outfitter for the 2010 U.S. Olympic team.
Wang wardrobe Vera Wang designed Lysacek's costumes for the Olympic season. "I really can't say enough great things about her," he said. "She has such great enthusiasm for design and skating. She got on the ice with me and watched me perform. Vera even did some of the movements herself to feel what it feels like skating my programs. She was a skater so she is very in tune to what skaters need."
Check out the six-pack Coca-Cola picked Lysacek as one of the Coca-Cola "Six-Pack" of Athletes for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games. In addition to appearing on packaging and promotional items, he will also serve as a Coca-Cola "Ambassador of Active Living" to help encourage and inspire people to lead active, balanced lives. "Sometimes the best thing after being on the ice all day is just an ice cold Coke," Lysacek said.
Comeback kid At the 2006 Olympics, Lysacek was embarrassed by his 10th place short program, which he skated shortly after coming down with the flu. But he put on a show in the free skate, finishing third in that portion of the event, and fourth overall. "It's hard because I dreamed about the Olympics for upwards of a decade," he said. "And that dream didn't include getting sick with a stomach flu, getting stuck with IVs, having my veins collapse and falling in the short program. It became about something different—courage."
Lucky number After graduating from high school in 2003, Lysacek moved from Naperville to Southern California to work with Carroll. But he never changed his cell phone number because the last four digits are 2006, a lucky number for him. Among his accomplishments in 2006 were finishing fourth at the Olympic Winter Games, third at the World Championships and first at Cup of China.
It's in the genes Lysacek's older sister Laura played travel softball before heading to college. His younger sister Christina received volleyball scholarship toCharleston Southern University. But the Lysacek trio are not the only athletes in the family. Their cousin Cole Chason played football for Clemson University.
Uncle Evan Lysacek's older sister Laura has one son. "Mason is just the coolest kid already," he said.

Outdoor Adventures in Naples, Marco Island & the Everglades
As Florida's final wilderness frontier – where Everglades wetlands meet the Gulf of Mexico, and mangrove forest meets beach – the Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades area gives you weeks' worth of outdoor fun in the wildest of settings. Experience the natural surroundings with this four-day itinerary. Explore outdoor adventures in Naples, Marco Island & the Everglades.
DAY 1: PRISTINE BEACHES TO PRIMEVAL SWAMPS
Ease into the primeval nature scene with an introduction to beach ecology at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park in North Naples. Work on your tan as you comb the sands with the local shorebirds, scouting out the minute sea life that inhabits the shore.
In summer, you might notice trails that look like tractor treads. They're actually sea turtle tracks, and they end where the mother sea turtle has deposited eggs. Ranger patrols cage the nests to protect the eggs from marauding raccoons, and they lead turtle talks to teach about the prehistoric creatures. Other guided tours focus on snorkeling, kayaking, birds, and local flora. Climb the observation tower for an overview and cast a line into the pass to meet some of the local underwater residents.
After a beach picnic, head to Audubon Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary for your first taste of Everglades ecology. Get a preview in the Swamp Theater, then follow the 2.5-mile boardwalk to look for alligators, roseate spoonbills, black bears, deer, and bobcats. Corkscrew is also home to an annual wood stork migration and boasts the largest mating population of these endangered birds in the country. Finish the day with a Cocohatchee Nature Center sunset eco-cruise into the protected Cocohatchee River – home to egrets, herons, and the occasional bald eagle and kestrel.
DAY 2: PADDLING & HIKING THE EVERGLADES
Collier-Seminole State Park provides easy modes for Everglades exploring. In the morning, set up camp (attempt camping only in the cool months); otherwise, opt for a mosquito-free room at the nearby Port of the Islands Hotel. Then paddle along the 13.6-mile Blackwater River canoe trail loop into the mangrove forest, home to fish and birds. Boat tours also ply the local waters.
After a picnic lunch, head to the park's trails by bike or foot. The 3.5-mile hiking and biking trail traverses bird and alligator habitat. Other hiking trails explore a salt marsh, cypress forest, and royal palm hammock. A beautiful and relaxing way to enjoy outdoor adventures in Naples, Marco Island & the Everglades.
DAY 3: ALLIGATORS, BOAT TOURS & WILD ORCHIDS
Now you're ready for the extreme 'Glades experience. Start with a morning drive into the 729,000-acre Big Cypress National Preserve along Loop Road, where alligators crawl along the unpaved road and hawks swoop in front of the car. On your way back west, stop at the preserve's Oasis Visitor Center and H.P. Williams Roadside Park to watch alligators from viewing platforms. Adventurers can join the sanctuary's outreach/education program for an expedition into the swamp that introduces explorers to orchids, dwarf cypress, pond apple trees, and the colorful, carnivorous bladderwort that feeds on mosquito larvae.
For lunch, sample fare from the Everglades – fried alligator tail, Seminole Indian fry bread, stone or blue crab, and frog legs – at rustic Joanie's Blue Crab Cafe.
Head to Everglades National Park, the only subtropical preserve in North America and part of the country's largest wetlands system, for an hour-long Everglades National Park Boat Tour that departs from the Gulf Coast Visitor Center in Everglades City. End the day with a stroll along the Big Cypress Bend boardwalk trail at Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park, known for its wild orchids. For an Everglades-immersing experience, ask about the preserve's guided swamp walks in fall, winter, and spring.
DAY 4: BIRDING & SHELLING
Today, go eco-lite. Hit Tigertail Beach on Marco Island for morning birding and shelling. Ranger-led programs examine shells, sea turtles, dolphins, manatees, birds, and more. Learn more about the ecology you've been experiencing from nearby Rookery Bay Environmental Learning Center's super-sized and interactive exhibits.
Experience all Florida has to offer with these (and so many more) outdoor adventures in Naples, Marco Island & the Everglades.

I teach undergraduate nursing at Palm Beach Atlantic University. Currently I teach health assessment and tech skills. I instruct clinically for psychiatric nursing and community nursing. My husband Robbie (PBA Alumni) and I have taken undergraduate and graduate nursing students to El Salvador for the past 4 years on a medical mission trip. This March will be our 5th spring break trip. I am a semi-pro standup paddleboard angler. I also host Facing Waves, a paddle series TV show on Fox Sports.
I worked as a medical surgical registered nurse at Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center. I worked as a Pediatric Psychiatric registered nurse at Sandy Pines Residential Treatment Center. I have been involved in overseas missions for over 10 years.
It doesn't get easier. Just because you are not being tested on course material does not mean that you stop studying. You acquire a new responsibility for the content learned during your academic career. It's no longer case studies and scenarios; it is now a human life that has been entrusted to your care and your decisions and ability to critically think impact that life.
"Just because you are not being tested on course material does not mean that you stop studying."
As hard as nursing school was for me, I can now look back and appreciate PBA's rigorous program. PBA School of Nursing prepared me to survive in a chaotic and stressful environment. I was taught to not only see my patient as a person but to see them as a person that was made in the image of God, a person that has infinite value in the eyes of our Creator. That worldview has made all the difference when faced with difficult decisions and the need for personal sacrifice. I definitely had a solid foundation to build on.
I would tell them that in whatever they do let it be done in such a way that brings glory to God. Be willing to be corrected, seek after advice from peers and mentors in your field, and never stop learning.
I was mentored by a nurse practitioner when I first started out as a registered nurse. She gave wonderful advice and encouraged me to continue to pursue my academic goals. Come December I will be at the end of my academic journey.

Ferrari Testarossa е спортен автомобил със средно разположен 12-цилиндров двигател, произвеждан от Ферари, започвайки производството си от 1984 г. като наследник на Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer. Дизайнът на автомобила е дело на компанията Пининфарина и е произвеждан от 1984 г. до 1991 г. и има две ревизии, след края на производството на Testarossa, наречени 512 TR и F512 M, които са произвеждани от 1992 г. до 1996 г. Почти десет хиляди бройки са произведени от Testarossa, 512 TR и F512 M, правейки ги едни от най-често срещаните модели на Ферари, въпреки високата си цена и екзотичен дизайн. През 1995 г. цената на F512 M била 220 000 щатски долара. Името на модела, преведено от италиански означава червенокос (букв. червеноглав).

Testarossa е 2-вратно купе, което се представя на Парижкия автосалон през 1984 г. Всички версии на Testarossa са получавали мощността си от задно монтирана 5-степенна предавателна кутия. Задно-средно разположеният двигател със задно задвижване (двигателят се намира между двете оси, но зад кабината) запазва центъра на тежестта в средата на автомобила, увеличавайки стабилността и подобрявайки способността на автомобила за завиване. Разпределението на тежестта в спряно положение е 40% на предната ос и 60% на задната. Първият Testarossa е преработен през 1992 г. и пуснат в продажба като 512 TR на автосалона в Лос Анджелис. Автомобилът е напълно нов и е подобрил разпределението на теглото от 40% отпред и 60% отзад на 41% и 59% респективно. F512 M е представен през 1994 г. на Парижкия автосалон. Моделът се отказва от инициалите TR и добавя M, което идва от италианското modificata, което означава модифицирано и е последната итерация на Ferrari Testarossa, подобрявайки още повече разпределението на теглото на 42% отпред и 58% отзад. Ferrari F512 M е последният модел на Ferrari със средно разположен 12-цилиндров двигател (реално 180-градусов V12). Testarossa е заменен през 1996 г. с 550 Maranello, което разполага с предно разположен двигател.

Ferrari Testarossa не трябва да се бърка с Ferrari TR "Testa Rossa" от късните 50-те и ранните 60-те години от XX век, които са били GT спортни автомобили, участвали в 24-те часа на Льо Ман.

Име

Името Testarossa, което означава червенокоса от италиански, идва от червено боядисаните капаци на цилиндровите глави. Двусмисленото име на автомобила е дадено нарочно. Ферари и Пининфарина често използват термини, свързани с женското тяло, когато описват стила на автомобилите си.

Разработка
Testarossa може да проследи корените си от проблемите на Ferrari 512i BB от 1981 г. Проблемите, които Testarossa се стреми да отстрани, включват увеличаващата се температура в кабината, заради предно разположения радиатор и средно разположения двигател (топлината се движи от двигателя до предницата) и липсата на място за багаж. За да реши тези проблеми, Ферари и Пининфарина проектират Testarossa с по-големи размери от тези на предшественика си – Ferrari Berlinetta Boxer. Например с широчината си от 1,976 mm, Testarossa е с половин фут по-широка от Berlinetta Boxer. Това допринася и за по-голямо междуосие, което е с 64 mm по-голямо от това на предшественика, като крайното междуосие на Testarossa e 2,550 mm, което е използвано, за да се реши проблемът с липсата на място за багаж. Увеличената дължина на автомобила спомага и за увеличаване на мястото в пътническата кабина, добавяйки повече място зад седалките и повече място за главите на пътниците (с приблизително 1,3 см повече от това при Boxer).

Дизайнът на Пининфарина е доста различен от този на заобления Boxer, което предизвиква някои противоречия. Страничните решетки, често наричани рендета за сирене, които вървят по продължението на вратите до задните калници, са необходими заради няколко регулации в няколко държави, които забраняват отворите по автомобилите. Testarossa има два радиатора в задната част на автомобила (зад двигателя), вместо един радиатор в предната част на автомобила. В допълнение страничните отвори доставят студен въздух до задно монтираните радиатори, като по този начин предпазват двигателя от прегряване. Отворите също така правят Testarossa по-широк в задната част, отколкото в предната и по този начин подобряват стабилността и управлението на автомобила.

Както предшествениците си Testarossa използва 5-точково независимо окачване отпред и отзад. Ферари подобряват сцеплението на автомобила като добавят джанти, широки десет инча. Testarossa също използва и по-добър двигател, който е основан на този от предшественика на модела – BB 512i. Двигателят е почти същият като този при Berlinetta Boxer, с почти еднакви работен обем и компресия, но за разлика от BB 512i има по четири клапана на цилиндър вместо два.

Testarossa

Двигател
Testarossa има 4.9-литров (4,943 куб. см) средно разположен Ferrari Colombo 12-цилиндров двигател с цилиндри разположени на 180º, които обаче работят във V-образен ред на запалване. Всеки цилиндър разполага с четири клапана, а общият им брой е 48. Лубрикацията на двигателя е от система тип сух картер, а компресията на двигателят е 9.20:1. Двигателят разполага с въртящ момент от 490 Nm при 4,500 об./мин, а максималната мощност на двигателя е 395 к.с. при 6,300 об./мин. Някои от по-ранните модели в САЩ имали същият двигател, но малко по-малко мощност (около 380 к.с.).

Ferrari Testarossa може да ускори от 0 – 100 km/h за 5.3 секунди, а от 0 – 160 km/h за 11.4 секунди. Мотър Тренд успяват да постигнат за двете стойности 5.29 секунди и 11.3 секунди, респективно. Моделът може да измине разстоянието от четвърт миля за 13.5 секунди, а километър за 23.8 секунди. Максималната скорост на Testarossa е 290 km/h.

Колела
Testarossa има 16-цолови джанти с дебелина от 8 инча отпред и 10 отзад както за версиите за СА, така и за другите международни версии на модела. Кодът на гумите за версиите за САЩ бил 225/50 VR 16 за предните и 255/50 VR 16 за задните, а самите гуми са производство на Goodyear. Кодът на гумите за международните версии бил TRX 240/45 VR 415 за предните гуми и TRX 280/45 VR 415 за задните, а самите гуми са производство на Мишлен. Размерът на спирачните дискове отпред е 309 mm, а на тези отзад – 310 mm.

Прием
Колата спечелва много почитатели и тестове. Само за пет години е публикувана 9 пъти на корицата на списание Road & Track. Цената на модела в САЩ била 181 000 щатски долара през 1989 г. заедно с 2,700 щатски долара за данък "Потребление на гориво". Първоначалната цена на Testarossa в Обединеното кралство била 62 666 британски паунда.

Джак Неръд от списанието Driving Today казва, че за него Testarossa е кола създадена за да печели от имидж и след като 80-те години на XX век имали за цел да се печели възможно най-много, моделът е бил перфектен за времето си. Хубавото било, че също така е бил и доста добър автомобил.

Въпреки успеха си на публичните пътища, Testarossa не се появява по пистите, за разлика от предшественика си – BB 512i, който е постигнал няколко малки успеха.

Като флагман на Ферари през 80-те, Testarossa се е появява в доста видеоигри, като например играта Out run, и също така е използвана като кола под прикритие на Сони Крокет от телевизионната поредица Маями Вайс. Колата започва да се свързва с юпитата и като икона на ретро културата от 80-те години на XX век. Страничните отвори, наричани рендета, стават популярен компонент за разширяващи купето китове. Рендетата вдъхновяват много фалшиви и често лоши копия на дизайна, използвани за създаване на реплики на Testarossa на базата на Pontiac Trans Am и голяма селекция от японски и американски спортни автомобили и дори мотоциклети, като например Honda VFR.

Testarossa Spider
Testarossa Spider, със сериен номер 62897, е единствената официална кабиролет версия на Testarossa, поръчана от Ферари и проектирана от Пининфарина, произведена някога. Колата е направена специално за вече починалия Джани Анели, ръководител на ФИАТ по онова време, като подарък. Testarossa Spider имала среберен цвят, а интериорът бил завършен в цвят бяла магнолия със синя ивица между матово черните первази, а таванът бил бял и се премахвал на ръка. Автомобилът е връчен на Анели през 1986 г. и има емблема на Ferrari, направена от сребро, а не от алуминий както при останалите модели на компанията.

Много клиенти на компанията искали техни бройки на Testarossa Spider, но Ферари отказала всяка една от тях заради трудности от конструктурна гледна точка, затова Пининфарина и други фирми правят неофициални Spider версии на колата. Официалната Spider версия не се различавала механично от обикновена Testarossa. Тя имала стандартния 4.9-литров 180-градусов V12 двигател. Единствената разлика между официалната версия и кабриолет версията е тази, че при кабриолета предното стъкло и страничните стъкла са по-къси от тези на обикновената Testarossa.

512 TR

Двигател
512 TR използва 4.9-литров (4943 куб. см) Ferrari Colombo 180° V12 двигател, монтиран надлъжно, средно разположен двигател. Всеки цилиндър има четири клапана, правейки 48 клапана общо. Лубрикацията отново е била извършвана от система тип сух картер, а компресията се е увеличила на 10.00:1. Това довело до максимален въртящ момент от 491 Nm при 5,500 об./мин и максимална мощност от 428 к.с. при 6,750 об./мин.

Ferrari 512 TR може да ускори от 0 – 97 km/h за 4.9 секунди и от 0 – 161 км/ч за 10.7 секунди. Моделът може да измине разстоянието от четвърт миля за 13.2 секунди, а това от километър за 23.4 секунди. Максималната скорост на 512 TR е 314 km/h.

Ферари прави прибиране на автомобили през 1995 г., заради технхнически проблеми засягащи монтирането на горивната линия. Над 400 модела имали този дефект, който се появявал от разлики в температурата и условията. Друго прибиране на автомобили било направено заради проблеми със затягащата се система на коланите. Проблемът бил забелязан при повече от 2,000 бройки от 512 TR. Ако системата за затягане имала проблем, от механично или електрическо естество, само коланът около скута ще се затегне.

Двигателят на 512 TR е модифициран по няколко начина. Вътрешната покриква на цилиндрите е сменена с никасил, сложен е нов въздушен колектор, електронно управляващия модул е сменен с нов от Bosch, има по-големи клапани за впръскване на горивната смес и подобрена система за отделяне на газовете. В допълнение към по-високата максимална мощност, модификациите спомогнали и за по-добро разпределение на мощността, което довело до по-бързо ускорение.

Усилията за превклюяване, което било често оплакване от Testarossa, е било улеснено с добавянето на нов еднодисков съединител, по-добри лагери и по-добър ъгъл на разположението на лоста за смяна на предавките. Спирачната система включва по-големи дискове отпред с процепи по продължението си. По-бързо управление, нископрофилни гуми и нови настройки на окачването спомагат за подобряване на управлението. Най-вече положението на двигателя и предавателната кутия било преосмислено с цел преместване на центъра на тежестта по-ниско подобрявайки още повече управлението и стабилността при висока скорост.

Интериорът претърпява промени също. Централната конзола вече е отделена от таблото, а контролите на климатика са преместени на ново място. Пининфарина подобряват дизайна на купето, за да се интегрират по-лесно новите спойлери и капаци за двигателя.

В САЩ моделът струва 212 160 щатски долара през 1992 г. с всички екстри, данък за потребление на горива и транспортни разходи.

Колела
512 TR има 18-инчови джанти с дебелина от 8 инча отпред и 10.5 инча отзад. Кодът на гумите бил 235/40 ZR 18 за предните и 295/35 ZR 18 за задните. Предните спирачни дискове имали диаметър от 315 mm, а задните от 310 mm.

F512 M

F512 M е последната итерация на Testarossa. 500 бройки са произведени, от които 75 с десен волан.

Двигател
F512 M има средно разположен 4.9-литров (4943 куб. см) Ferrari Colombo 180-градусов V12 двигател, монтиран по дължина. Двигателят има максимален въртящ момент от 500 Nm при 5,500 об./мин и максимална мощност от 446 к.с. при 6,750 об./мин. Всеки цилиндър има по четири разпределителни вала, 48 общо. Лубрикацията е от система сух картер, а компресията е 10.40:1. Заради новите си мотовилки и колянов вал, които заедно тежали със 7.26 kg по-малко от предшествениците си, двигателят можел да работи до 7500 об./мин без проблеми, което било неговия електронно ограничен лимит.

Ferrari F512 M може да ускори от 0 – 100 km/h за 4.7 секунди, а от 0 – 161 km/h за 10.2 секунди и може да измине разстоянието от четвърт миля за 12.7 секунди, а километър за 22.7 секунди. Максималната скорост на F512 M била 315 km/h.

Екстериор
Предните и задни светлини претърпяват промени за тази итерация. Предните светлини вече са квадратни и фиксирани, а не скрити в бронята на автомобила. Задните светлини вече са заоблени, а броните са променили стила си за да придадът по-обединен вид на F512 M. Моделът има и нов преден капак с два NACA отвори.

Интериор
Интериорът на F512 M претърпява малки промени в сравнение с този на 512 TR. Лостът за смяна на предавките вече има хромиран завършек, а алуминиевите педали получават отвори. Климатикът вече е стандартно оборудване за модела. Спортните седалки са от карбон и също така са стандартно оборудване. Те тежат само 14.97 кг; много по-малко от стандартните. Флаговете на Пининфарина и Ferarri са поставени на таблото.

Колела
F512 M има 18-инчови джанти с дебелина от 8 инча отпред и 10.5 инча отзад. Гумите са Pirelli P Zero, с код 235/40 ZR 18 за предните гуми и 295/35 ZR 18 за задните. Предните спирачни дискове са с димаметър от 315 mm, а задните – 310.

Mythos

Ferrari Mythos е още една специална версия, направена на базата на Testarossa. Моделът е концептуален, а дизайнът е дело на Пининфарина.

Въпреки че не е било планувано Mythos да бъде продаван на публични лица, сегашният султан на Бруней, Хасанал Болкиах, има две бройки. Моделът използва шасито, двигателя и скоростната кутия на Testarossa. Максималната скорост на модела е 290 km/h.

Един от прототипите се намира в подразделението на Пининфарина в Камбиано, Италия.

В популярната култура
Въпреки че не е произвеждан никога серийно, Pinifarina Mythos е включен във видео играта на Accolade от 1990 г. Test Drive III.

Colani Ferrari Testa d'Oro
С дизайн, направен от Луиджи Колани през 1989 г., Testa d'Oro е проектиран за подобряване на рекорди за скорост, развивани на земята. Моделът е базиран на Testarossa с 5-литров Ferrari-Lotec 180-градусов V12, използващ два турбокомпресора. Двигателят развива мощност от 760 к.с при 4,000 об./мин и въртящ момент от 900 Nm при 5,000 об./мин. Автомобилът успешно подобрява рекорда за скорост на класа си през 1991 г., достигайки 351 km/h с катализатори.

FX

Ferrari FX е спортен автомобил на Ferrari, направен специално за 29-ия султан на Бруней от Пининфарина. Автомобилът има 180-градусовия V12 двигател от Ferrari Testarossa и 7-степенна секвенциална предавателна кутия от отбора от Формула 1 Уилямс. Само седем бройки са произведени от модела, от които шест бройки принадлежат на султанското семейство на Бруней. След като султана отказва доставката на кола номер четири, Дик Маркони купува автомобила от Уилямс. Модел номер четири е изложен в музея Маркони в Тъстин, Калифорния. Ferrari FX има максимална скорост от 330 km/h.

FZ93

FZ93 (Formula Zagato '93) е проектиран от Ерколе Спада и е продължение на серията от специалните Ferrari-та на Загато.

F90
След почти 18 години, Ferrari признават съществуването на F90 и това, че са направени шест бройки, специално за султана на Бруней през 1988 г. Малък пасаж от отчета на Ferrari за 2005 г. показва а поръчка на шест специални суперавтомобила, които били много по-различни от всичко, което Ferrari са произвеждали.

Проектът е ръководен от Енрико Фумия, ръководител на отдел "Изследвания и разработки" в Пининфарина. По онова време, проектът е строго секретен, толкова много, че дори Ferrari не знаели за съществуването му. Фумия направил дизайна на автомобила и казал, че името му – F90 е референция към това, че той е "Ферари на 90-те."

Всички шест бройки от F90, използвали шасита на Ferrari Testarossa, които Пининфарина използвали за да създадат изцяло ново купе и интериор върху тях. Двигателите били стандартните за Testarossa и развивали мощност от 395 к.с., но радиаторите на двигателите били преместени в предната част на автомобила.

Help The Texas Tribune and ProPublica report on the military justice system
By Vianna Davila, Ren Larson, Lexi Churchill and Jessica Priest, The Texas Tribune and ProPublica, and Adriana Gallardo, ProPublica
"Help The Texas Tribune and ProPublica report on the military justice system" was first published by The Texas Tribune, a nonprofit, nonpartisan media organization that informs Texans — and engages with them — about public policy, politics, government and statewide issues.
Military investigations can be opaque. The people involved may be the only witnesses to how cases move or stall. An investigation by ProPublica and The Texas Tribune into pretrial confinement, an aspect of the military justice system that allows commanders to detain service members ahead of trial, showed that Army soldiers accused of sexual assault are less than half as likely to be placed in pretrial confinement as those accused of offenses like drug use and distribution, disobeying an officer or damaging nonmilitary property.
[Twice accused of sexual assault, he was let go by Army commanders. He attacked again.]
Our news organizations plan to continue examining the military justice system, which handles more than 1,000 cases across all branches annually. Charges in those cases range from disobeying an officer to murder. We also want to learn more about how the military handles cases that do not make it to courts-martial and how commanders assign nonjudicial punishments.
To do this, we'd like to hear from service members, former service members and families about how the military justice system operates, including how it investigates allegations of sexual assault, domestic violence, drug use as well as noncombat deaths. We are also interested in how military justice intersects with the civilian justice system.
As we embark on this effort, we want to make sure we're asking the right questions. We hope our work can prevent future harm. To that end, we hope to learn from and speak with military support staff and current and former service members, along with the families of both groups. In particular, we would like to hear from people who have experience at military bases in Texas.

ProPublica is an independent, nonprofit newsroom that produces investigative journalism with moral force. We dig deep into important issues, shining a light on abuses of power and betrayals of public trust — and we stick with those issues as long as it takes to hold power to account.
The Texas Tribune is the only member-supported, digital-first, nonpartisan media organization that informs Texans — and engages with them — about public policy, politics, government and statewide issues.
Some of our organizations' previous reporting on the military:
Disaster in the pacific
An investigation into what went wrong in America's 7th Fleet after a series of deadly naval accidents in the Pacific.
Deplorable conditions, unclear mission: Texas National Guard troops call rushed border operation a disaster
Some Guard members say a massive mobilization, which would normally take months to plan, set back their income, education and well-being.
Reliving agent orange
For decades, Vietnam veterans suspected that the chemical mixture harmed their health and that of their children. But the Veterans Affairs agency hadn't studied its own data for clues. ProPublica and The Virginian-Pilot investigated the mixture's effects and military families' fight for benefits.
When you join us at The Texas Tribune Festival Sept. 22-24 in downtown Austin, you'll hear from changemakers who are driving innovation, lawmakers who are taking charge with new policies, industry leaders who are pushing Texas forward and so many others.
