The first half of 2018 is history - what will the second half bring? More rain for San Diego, I hope! No fires, I hoe. More wins for the Padres is too much to hope for. Genealogy challenges galore would be nice.

Home Government Forrest County High Speed Chaser, Charlie Phillips, a Billy Badge, and the mental disorder...
High Speed Chaser, Charlie Phillips, a Billy Badge, and the mental disorder (Part 1)
Phillips wearing his Billy Badge. Click to enlarge.
October 13th 2003 would be a day that Forrest County Election Commissioner would never forget. Equipped with a Billy Badge and a law enforcement scanner listening to HPD and FCSO dispatch, Charlie Phillips was returning from a coaches and umpires meeting in Laurel. It was then when he heard on HPD dispatch of a high speed chase involving a Tyrone Jackson. Jackosn was approaching Hattiesburg, headed south from Covington County. Phillips joined in the chase in a 2003 white Ford Escape. The suspect, Jackson, happened to be driving a white Ford Explorer. MHP officers Joe Seals, Thomas Little, and Donny Rayburn were dispatched from Highway 98 in Lamar County to engage in pursuit of a "white SUV."
According to court records,
"he (Phillips) was under the impression that he could ultimately be of some 'assistance' to the Hattiesburg Police Department."
However, the Hattiesburg Police Department was not going to engage in the chase.
The court record states,
"Unknown to the MHP, HPD, or his own dispatch, Phillips had taken up a position in his personal vehicle, a 2003 White Ford Explorer (D-18), in the approximate area of Eddie and Hwy 49 and was going to attempt to impede or block the suspect from getting through the intersection."
Tyrone Jackson was able to get pas MHP Trooper Seals and Trooper Little, but Rayburn spotted the suspect just north of Hattiesburg, and he engaged in pursuit. Phillips engaged in the pursuit when when he witnessed Raburn and the suspect speed through the intersection
Phillips testified that he,
"attempted to assist trooper Rayburn in an effort to bring the suspect vehicle to a halt by attempting to either force him from the roadway, or blocking his traveling path.
Initially well behind the chase, and now caught up to Phillips at the Multi Purpose Center, Trooper Seals and Trooper Little caught up with Phillips vehicle. Thinking he was the suspect. They radioed ahead to Trooper Rayburn instructing him to get in front of the suspect vehicle, and they would perform a procedure known as a "rolling roadblock." Rayburn, thinking Trooper Seals is referring to the suspect vehicle, continues to race ahead and exited off Hwy 49 andonto Hwy 98.
Seals pulled up attempting to block Phillips vehicle. According to the court record,
along Phillps, instructing him to pull over. According to testimony,
"Phillips attempted to move his vehicle around Seals' vehicle."
By this time Trooper Little had caught up to seals, and Phillips vehicle was stopped using a rolling road block maneuver. Trooper Seals approached Phillips vehicle and ordered him out of the vehicle. Phillips did not comply, and moved his from the steering wheel to his lap. Phillips was removed from the vehicle with a "straight arm bar," taken to the ground, and handcuffed.
It was at this point Phillips identified himself as a Forrest County Sheriff's office Reserve Deputy. Moments later, Trooper Rayburn was requested assistance for the suspect that he was still pursuing. Realizing the mistake, Seals left and continued to assist Rayburn in the pursuit of the suspect, while Trooper Little had to stay behind to provide Phillips with his supervisor's information. Trooper Little offered to get medical assistance for Phillips, since he was bleeding, but Phillips declined.
After the events, Phillips sued the officers and Mississippi Highway Safety Patrol/ There is an interesting twist to the events which will be very surprising.. Part 2 will publish later this evening and include documents.

He is better than some we have… we had one who my child said threatened to take off her belt and whip a child! While in the past, this could happen… kids these days don't understand that!

Case should be dismissed, you play, you pay. He needs to sit his azz down somewhere.

That report seemed to leave out some details such as why Phillip's was bleeding, and you need the pictures to go with it.

17 page ruling. It has to be condensed. Full ruling will be in Part 2.
Part 2 will have it all.
But as I remember Charlie was slammed to the ground and he was in pretty bad shape when the other officer left him.
Jaymie Wakeland Jarman November 6, 2016 at 3:04 pm
Yep. I remember when this happened. What did Charlie think he was going to do anyway?
Ann Odom Hust November 6, 2016 at 1:08 pm
What a mess! Phillips should have stayed out of it.

Q: S3 trigger didn't invoke Lambda when a file is uploaded on S3 automatically I created a Lambda function that gets data from S3 and puts it into DynamoDB. I enabled S3 event notification on my bucket, so whenever a file is uploaded on S3 it automatically fetches data and puts it into a DynamoDB table. This worked absolutely fine when I uploaded a file on s3.
I have scheduled Amazon Connect reports to the S3 bucket that automatically sends a CSV report to S3 after 30 minutes intervals.
Problem
When a 30 minute interval completes Amazon Connect sends a report to S3 and my S3 bucket sends event to Lambda function. But this time, it throws an error that I have checked through CloudWatch.
Error

Same code is perfectly working for manual execution but it throws error on automation. Kindly help me here.

A: My problem got solved when I got to know my file contains a colon(:) in its name, which is not acceptable by S3. Because it changes the file name automatically. I handle that issue in my Lambda function with minor changes in code. I have used replace method to fix the issue.

The Only Way Is Ellie
the best and the worst of pop culture today
The Walking Dead S07E05
'Go Getters.' And aren't they just? It's unlike an Alexandrian to be able to stay put under their direct orders for more than one week. A lot happened in last nights episode in terms of opening new plots, which is refreshing to see. Gone are the bottle episodes (hurray!) and we finally start to see some storyline interconnection.
We start the episode with Maggie (who I have been dying to appear these past four episodes) and it's as if she is a breath of fresh air. Soon after her reunion with Sacha at Glenn and Abrahams grave, we see her surrounded by the pale hue of wildflowers. Along with the dreamy scenery, she delivers the line 'Not everything' in response to Sacha claiming nothing feels right anymore. This instantly shows what kind of headspace Maggie is currently in – and damn it's a good one. She is set up throughout the entire episode to soon take care of Hilltop solely. Maggie is Rick 2.0, Maggie is Deanna 2.0, Maggie is Maggie Rhee and she's here to roll over your shit with a tractor and earn some god damn respect.
Gregorys reintroduction is as ghastly as ever. He is the perfect villain. In this first scene he pisses the audience off three times. He calls Maggie Marsha, he then goes on to throw accusations around and then he calls Rick Rich. I definitely can't wait to see his comeuppance, whatever it may be. By the hands of Negan, Rick, or a walker, I'm sure it'll be satisfying.
Back to Alexandria and we see Rick ready to go on a run. This opens several comic story arcs with him leaving base camp, however I won't delve into them because I don't like to enlist comic spoilers in this blog series! Rick and Michonne have the strangest relationship of all. It's like they aren't in a relationship at all, and then every 8 episodes the show-runners will throw something in to remind us that they are. The tension between the two in this scene shows that they are perhaps both hiding things. Do they each have weapons hidden? Are they each planning individual revenge on Negan? Why did Rick say 'thank you' when Michonne kissed him? So many questions! It seems that because the threat of the saviour is so strong, everyone thinks it's best that they tackle Negan alone in secrecy. Rick, Michonne, Carl, Enid, Rosita, Sacha, – we've seen all of these characters plotting in some small way their revenge. Rick has basically raised a group of Ricks.
I really enjoyed seeing Sonequa Martin stretch her acting ability in this episode as Sacha. When Jesus gave her Abrahams necklace, her pain was clearly visible. She managed to take on emotions that we aren't used to her holding so it was a good way for Sonequa to deepen her character and her own acting. It is however going to be V V awkward when Rosita realises that Sacha has been given the necklace that Rosita gave Abraham. Oooh.
The last thing I expected at hilltop was the walker attack. It showed that Hilltop is still rather penetrable and it also gave way for some bad ass walker slaying scenes from Maggie, Sacha and Jesus. After all the human drama this season, I really enjoy the frequented interjection of walker threats. Especially when it involves ninja Jesus and Maggie going all Carrie Underwood on her ex boyfriends car. The entire fighting scene was wonderfully choreographed and stylised. Especially with the darkness and firelight.
Enid and Carl. Hmmmm. I'm constantly torn between these two. One side of me enjoys the aspect of romance and coming of age that they bring to the show, yet the other side thinks that there isn't enough time to be accommodating romantic rollerblading sessions. I do however think that this was a good way to highlight the childhood that they never really had. It'll be interesting to see where Carls absence leaves Enid. From Maggie handing over Glenn/Hershels watch to her, it's almost implied that she will now sit under Maggies watch. That was a sweet moment but you would think that Maggie would save the watch for her unborn child, or at least for herself. This is another example of how strong she is becoming and even taking on some of Hilltops ethos' for herself. Remember at the start of the episode when Jesus says that they basically don't bury the dead because they don't need material reminders of them? That's pretty much what Maggie is saying by handing over the keepsake.
Gregory continues to be the leach that he is when he is visited by Simon. Seeing scenes like this really exemplify the difference between Gregory and Rick in Negans eyes. It's easy to see how Negan would be fascinated by Rick in comparison to the classic knee bender that is Gregory. I've been waiting all season for that shot of Carl on the back of the truck so I'm thrilled to have finally had it – and with Jesus in tow! It's sure to be an explosive revelation.

NKT cells demonstrate antitumor activity when activated to produce Th1 cytokines by DCs loaded with α-galactosylceramide, the prototypic NKT cell–activating glycolipid antigen. However, most patients do not have sufficient numbers of NKT cells to induce an effective immune response in this context, indicating a need for a source of NKT cells that could be used to supplement the endogenous cell population. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold tremendous potential for cell-replacement therapy, but whether it is possible to generate functionally competent NKT cells from iPSCs has not been rigorously assessed. In this study, we successfully derived iPSCs both from embryonic fibroblasts from mice harboring functional NKT cell–specific rearranged T cell receptor loci in the germline and from splenic NKT cells from WT adult mice. These iPSCs could be differentiated into NKT cells in vitro and secreted large amounts of the Th1 cytokine IFN-γ. Importantly, iPSC-derived NKT cells recapitulated the known adjuvant effects of natural NKT cells and suppressed tumor growth in vivo. These studies demonstrate the feasibility of expanding functionally competent NKT cells via an iPSC phase, an approach that may be adapted for NKT cell–targeted therapy in humans.

We had a gathering of food bloggers that came together to eat food (because that's what we do). Not just any meal though, we got to sample food from a restaurant that is not even established yet. You see the dinner we had is from a restaurant that is still in the beginning process of becoming reality.
I loved sitting down with, Dave, the brains behind Farmers Revival and hearing the story about how this all came about. How he wants to create really, really good food that is incredibly healthy and yet fast. The passion that he shared with us was exhilarating. This is a well thought out plan and a great idea.
I had read all about it, now I was able to hear it from him face to face and really experience his desire to be part of the Portland restaurant scene. The true test was going to be in the salad, and that's why we were all gathered together.
He started off by sharing his vegan Minestrone. It was loaded with many veggies and had incredible flavor. Even with the temps hitting 90's today, the soup really did hit the spot. It was served with some very yummy crusty bread, that I just couldn't get enough of.
Great bread, perfect for dipping in the soup or accompaniment to a great salad.
Then out came the star of the evening… the Indian curry salad. This salad was loaded with everything that I love. The more I dug through the happier I got. There were beets, chickpeas, cauliflower, quinoa and so much more. Every bite was a festival of flavors happening in your mouth. It was probably one of the most satisfying salads I have had in quite some time. Now, that's saying a lot for a salad. You must be wondering how true that statement really is? But I'm telling you, it was that amazing. He was also sharing how he made the dressing from scratch all the way down to roasting the spices. So much attention to detail in this salad. As you can imagine it was fun to sit with the other foodies and talk about how we were impressed with the amount of flavor coming out of this one dish.
Here's the sad news. You just have to trust me with this salad because it's not yet a reality. Dave is in the process of raising enough money on Kickstarter to open up his business. Take a time to check out his videos and his whole Kickstarter campaign.
Follow him on Facebook so you can see how he's progressing and when we might actually get to visit this someday establishment. Until then, I am going to wish and hope for this place to open up. I don't want that to be my last empty bowl.

Why Guardiola and Mourinho have more in common than ever
Manchester City correspondent
The two men will always be divided by their philosophy but there are striking similarities between their situations in Manchester
The idea of Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho living and working in the same city was relished as English football geared up for a bumper Premier League season last summer.
Ibra will fight to save his career - Mou
Despite the presence of Jurgen Klopp, Arsene Wenger, Mauricio Pochettino and Antonio Conte, it was Guardiola and Mourinho going head-to-head in Manchester which really caught the imagination.
But, until now, they have largely kept out of each other's way, both on and off the pitch. Mourinho's light-hearted comments about life at the Lowry Hotel being a "disaster" were blown out of proportion, but he has kept to himself, rarely straying out into the city centre and instead using free time to visit family in London.
Guardiola, who lives less than a mile away, is often out and about: last week he took his staff for a meal at Juan Mata's restaurant, a popular haunt for official City get-togethers, and recently enjoyed Manchester's Spanish festival with friends.
There have been times when they could not help a playful dig, with Mourinho suggesting he could have got a job "where the kitman could win the league". Guardiola has not been blameless either, alluding to United's long-ball tactics and pointing out that certain clubs have gone to Chelsea with a six-man defence.
Despite reports that Mourinho arranged to meet Guardiola after the derby in September and then failed to show up, the two embraced warmly before the EFL Cup clash a month later.
Who wins in fight between Pep & Mou?
They have had little to do with each other since, not least when it comes to the league table. City were 10 points clear of United at one stage but they meet on Thursday with just one point between them, the smallest margin since the first derby of the season.
Stylistically, of course, Mourinho and Guardiola have been and always will be poles apart. Last month, as Guardiola was explaining to sceptical fans and pundits that relentless attacking is the best way to protect a lead, Mourinho took his team to Middlesbrough, went 2-0 up and immediately brought on Marcos Rojo for Mata, going five at the back.
But for all the age-old differences of opinion, both men find themselves in remarkably similar situations.
Both inherited squads that required major surgery; United's a patch-work of players identified to fulfil the questionable philosophies of David Moyes and Louis van Gaal, City's an ageing throwback to better days, garnished with expensive signings not up to the job.
Both identified the problems before they had officially taken charge; Mourinho in the months after he was dismissed by Chelsea, Guardiola almost as soon as the final whistle blew on Bayern Munich's German Cup victory in May. Incidentally, the same day United won the FA Cup and news of Van Gaal's sacking was cruelly leaked.
Man Utd team news & likely line-up
Both set about expensive rebuilds. Mourinho recruited four game-changers in four vital positions, Guardiola sought reinforcements everywhere but, curiously, did not get the defence he wanted.
And both identified players who would need to shape up or ship out. Bastian Schweinsteiger, Memphis Depay and Morgan Schneiderlin never got a look in at United and have already gone. The Portuguese showed tough love to Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Anthony Martial and Luke Shaw, and has had mixed results.
Though Guardiola has been painted as callous for his role in Joe Hart's exit, the England goalkeeper defiantly insisted he did not need to change when the two men sat down in pre-season, a factor which has been overlooked. But the Catalan's own firm approach was in evidence when Yaya Toure was excluded from the squad, while Sergio Aguero has been constantly told to improve, to the point where he could yet leave this summer. Even Nolito, signed in July, has fallen out of favour, seemingly having criticised the manager in private.
And even though City had been as many as 10 points clear of United at one stage this season the two teams have similar on-pitch issues.
Both Mourinho and Guardiola have lamented their players' lack of precision, and indeed both teams have hit the woodwork 18 times in the league this season, with star men Paul Pogba accounting for six of United's tally and Kevin De Bruyne eight of City's.
United have missed 44 clear-cut chances in the Premier League this season, more than anybody else. City are second with 41.
United, interestingly, have created 412 chances this season, 20 more than City, but have scored 13 fewer league goals and have converted just 23 of their clear-cut chances, a worse tally than 10 other teams.
City, contrary to Guardiola's complaints, have actually converted 43 clear-cut chances, the most in the league.
For all Guardiola has bemoaned Aguero's occasionally poor finishing, it is Zlatan Ibrahimovic who has missed 18 clear-cut chances this season - the most - and converted just 7. Aguero has scored 11 and missed 10 of his.
'Fergie mind games a load of crap'
Poor finishing has not been the only issue, of course, and both managers have highlighted the wrong mentality in some of their players, bad luck, the fixture list, injuries and refereeing decisions. Both have gone out of their way to ensure their home fans are noisier, too.
There is an element of truth in everything they say, but the reality is that they are miles off Chelsea, to the point where sections of both fan bases have questioned if it has all been worth it.
Some United fans worry Mourinho is not adhering to the club's traditions of attacking football and bringing through youngsters, while Guardiola has criticised City supporters and struggled to convince some that his attacking style has been worth turfing out club legends.
Heading into Thursday's derby it seems there is more Mourinho in United than there is Guardiola in City, but both men will be given the time and resources to see their projects through.
For all their similarities, they will always dispute which way is best.


Anna's page and see what her pedigree and looks are. Dutch's pedigree is one of the best in the world.
He's the son of 2009 & 2011 World Champion Dewmist Silk Screen. Combining Anna and Dutch and keeping the best girl from that litter was an easy decision. Bella was chosen because not only was she incredibly good looking, she's very sweet, loving and gentle. She's not hyper whatsover and really is a dependent sweet girl. She's the tallest girl we own and so we project her pups will be very large. Bella is a very large, blocky headed, beautiful English Golden.
In addition to her incredible looks she has extremely high health clearances with perfect hips (OFA/BVA Excellent), OFA Perfect elbows, OFA eyes and OFA heart. This is extremely rare especially for a Golden Retriever. According to the OFA (Click HERE to see Study), over 127,268 different Golden Retrievers hips x-rays has been submitted and only 4% of Golden Retrievers score an "Excellent" rating. Anything below a BVA 4:4 is an "Excellent" hip rating which means Bella doesn't just have "Excellent" hips but superbly "Excellent" hips! She has the highest hip score of any Golden we have or have seen.
Bella's pedigree is very good so there's no other reason why she is beautiful. Her mother again is our Anna & her father is our Dutch. Between both parents you will see 4 World Champions, several International Champions & European Champions. She also has several Dutch, German, Finnish, English, Irish, Luxembourg, Hungarian, & Slovakian champions in her pedigree! To view her official pedigree just visit Anna and Dutch's pages.


Protestors on both sides of the abortion debate took to the Capitol on Monday, July 1 for a day of rallying and protesting. As the second special session of the Legislature began, activists demonstrated in front of the Capitol, and continued with a march down Congress Avenue.
Pro-choice protestors remained on the steps of the Capitol through the evening, with protest organizer Kristian Caballero encouraging greater activism throughout the second special session. The Texas House State Affairs Committee is expected to hear testimony regarding the proposed abortion legislation on July 2.

Beefmaster
Beefmaster cattle were developed by the Lasater Ranch in Texas but now headquartered in Colorado. The breeding program leading to their establishment was started by Ed C. Lasater in 1908, when he purchased Bos Indicus bulls to use on his commercial herd of Hereford and Shorthorn cattle. The first of these bulls that he used were principally of Gir breeding, although some of the Nelore breed was also used. In 1925 he introduced Guzerat blood into the herd.
The Beefmaster Breed began in 1931 when Tom Lasater, in the harsh brush country of south Texas, used Hereford, Shorthorn and Bos Indicus cattle in a three way cross to create the breed. After making crosses of Brahman-Hereford and Brahman-Shorthorn, he felt a superior animal had been produced and called the cattle "Beefmaster." The exact pedigree of the foundation cattle was not known. The breeding operations were carried on in multiple-sire herds and rigid culling was practiced. In 1954, the United States Department of Agriculture recognized Beefmasters as a purebred beef breed and the only certified beef breed that used a three way cross. He moved the cattle operation to Colorado in 1956. The Lasater Ranch estimates that modern Beefmaster cattle have slightly less than one-half Brahman blood and slightly more than one-fourth of Hereford and Shorthorn breeding.
The cattle were handled under range conditions that were often adverse, and a culling program was started based on the six essentials of fertility, disposition, weight, conformation, hardiness and milk production. Stress was placed on the production of beef. No selection was made to characteristics such as horns, hide or color. However, solid red, dun and black animals are more prevalent today than brindles or paints. The Lasater Ranch breeding program provided an interesting example of the use of mass selection in reaching a goal.
Breed Registry and Programs
Today, Beefmaster Breeders United (BBU), http://www.beefmasters.org/index.php, is a union of three associations that still breed for the original six essentials and provide the support that a new breeder requires. The original concepts of Tom Lasater in developing Beefmaster cattle have continued over the years and the six essentials are just as relevant today as they were in1931. The support of BBU includes help in marketing cattle by creating demand for calves via feedlots, advertising, sales, and the Nolan Ryan's All Natural Beef Program. Other support programs include whole herd reporting (WHR), voluntary classification, approved sales, Beefmaster Advancer registry, upgrading, a strong youth group (Junior Beefmaster Breeders Association) and others.
For the last 80 plus years, Beefmasters have spread to just about every region of the USA and many foreign countries. Mexico and South Africa have the largest international Beefmaster beef registry today. Considerable progress has been made in selecting and breeding Beefmaster cattle that give very satisfactory levels of production under the practical and often severe range conditions. Satisfaction by ranchers and proven growth and performance in feedlots indicate the value of Beefmaster cattle.

SEC sues Volkswagen, Winterkorn, citing 'Dieselgate' fraud on investors
By David Shepardson
WASHINGTON The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission sued Volkswagen (DE:VOWG_p) AG and its former chief executive Martin Winterkorn over the German automaker's diesel emissions scandal, accusing the company of perpetrating a "massive fraud" on U.S. investors.
The SEC said in its civil complaint filed in San Francisco late on Thursday that from April 2014 to May 2015, Volkswagen issued more than $13 billion in bonds and asset-backed securities in U.S. markets at a time when senior executives knew that more than 500,000 U.S. diesel vehicles grossly exceeded legal vehicle emissions limits.
Volkswagen "reaped hundreds of millions of dollars in benefit by issuing the securities at more attractive rates for the company," the SEC said, adding VW "repeatedly lied to and misled United States investors, consumers, and regulators as part of an illegal scheme to sell its purportedly 'clean diesel' cars and billions of dollars of corporate bonds and other securities in the United States."
The suit seeks to bar Winterkorn from serving as an officer or director of a public U.S. company and recover "ill-gotten gains" along with civil penalties and interest.
Winterkorn, who resigned days after the scandal became public in September 2015, was charged by U.S. prosecutors in 2018 and accused of conspiring to cover up the German automaker's diesel emissions cheating.
He remains in Germany.
Volkswagen said in a statement the SEC complaint "is legally and factually flawed, and Volkswagen will contest it vigorously. The SEC has brought an unprecedented complaint over securities sold only to sophisticated investors who were not harmed and received all payments of interest and principal in full and on time."
The automaker added that the SEC "does not charge that any person involved in the bond issuance knew that Volkswagen diesel vehicles did not comply with U.S. emissions rules when these securities were sold" but repeats claims about Winterkorn "who played no part in the sales".
A lawyer for Winterkorn could not immediately be reached early on Friday.
Volkswagen has agreed to pay more than $25 billion in the United States in connection with the three-and-a-half-year old scandal, paying claims from owners, environmental regulators, states and dealers, and has offered to buy back about 500,000 polluting U.S. vehicles. That figure included $4.3 billion in U.S. criminal and civil fines.
But the SEC said VW "has never repaid the hundreds of millions of dollars in benefit it fraudulently obtained."
VW admitted in September 2015 to secretly installing software in 500,000 U.S. vehicles to cheat government exhaust emissions tests and pleaded guilty in 2017 to felony charges. In total, 13 people have been charged in the United States, including Winterkorn and four Audi managers.
The SEC action also names Volkswagen arm VW Credit and Volkswagen Group of America Finance LLC, the entity used to sell the securities.

How exactly does this help? Clowns are protesting the movie "It" as magnifying fear of clowns in society. Professional clowns are reporting sharp drops after the release of the blockbuster movie. However, I fail to see how having clowns outside of the movie theater will help . . . beyond being a truly outstanding advertisement and draw for the movie.
For example, clowns are planning to protest outside Union Square Regal Cinema in New York to "raise enough awareness so when people think of clowns they won't think of scary murderers but people who dedicate their lives to bringing joy." Of course, having ticked off clowns glaring at you on a date is hardly relationship building. Indeed, this is hardly the audience that hires clowns. Not many adults are planning clowns for their birthdays.
Roughly two percent of the adult population suffers from coulrophobia, or fear of clowns. A recent study explored the common fear of clowns in children and traced it to the innate fear of exaggerated appearances or elements in clown costumes.
In the meantime, the movie is expected to gross $200 million by this weekend.
The reason why Stephen King made the evil entity a clown in It is because clowns are scary. Any child can tell you that. The only people who think clowns are funny are adults.
To a child – the clown looks like a fever nightmare where perspective is off. Makeup like dead flesh. Eye liner that looks like tears. Normal teeth and the whites of eyes look yellowed next to that pallid makeup. Partly bald with crazy hair on the side. Enormous feet.
Who the heck thought that kids would find that friendly, gentle, funny, or non threatening???
I firmly believe that clowns were created from the same source as children's stories and nursery rhymes. Historically, children's stories were frightening as hell to scare kids to death in order to teach them a lesson. I have the original Hans Christian Anderson and other folk tales. In one, a little girl had to chop her little finger off, peel the flesh from the bone, and use the bone to pick a lock to escape. The Little Mermaid's love married another, so she had no soul and turned into sea foam. Witches ate children. They were really, really serious back then on teaching kids not to talk to strangers or fall for anything, because the world was a really violent place filled with pestilence and the rule of club.
Therapy clowns often don't use that scary white makeup. They use more cutesy bright clothes or rainbow wigs so they look adorable rather than frantic.
Sorry clown guilds- traditional clown makeup and behavior is freaky.
Nonsense, Karen. Clowns have long been loved by children everywhere. Bozo the Clown, for example, was immensely popular with children. Bozo was invented by Alan W. Livingston, who later became a legendary executive at Capitol Records, where, among many things, he helped relaunch Frank Sinatra's recording career and introduced the music of the Beatles to America, among other artists.
It's true that Bozo was internationally popular. It's also true that the majority of children polled find clowns to be scary.
I wonder what percentage of kids at the time were put off by Bozo, if it was the circus show or Bozo they liked, or what Bozo's secret was for breaking the scary clown mold.
Plus there is the phenomenon where kids would laugh at a clown's silly antics from a circus' stands but wouldn't want to get close to one. Moms often talk about all the kids being scared of clowns.
I'm not phobic of clowns but think they are more strange than cute. The book It did make clowns more associated with creepy. Razor blade teeth shredding a clown mouth will do that.
Oh my gosh and in the book the kid Bill had this bike that took for bloody ever to get moving. Struggling and straining to pedal against the inertia while the maniacal clown entity was getting closer…. Gah! I couldn't sleep reading that book.
The most disturbing aspect of some of King's works was a protector or benign figure twisting into a threat, i.e. The Shining.
Karen – I have my way through all the different color Fairy Books and you are absolutely correct. Those tales told to children were life lessons to keep them safe in an unsafe time. Some of them are very brutal and graphic.
Boy, I never realized how disturbing I find clowns until I think about how creepy they look up close with that cracked white makeup and the frantic movements. Not phobic, but also not something I'd expect a little one to be joyous about meeting up close.
"A study in the British journal Nursing Standard last month surveyed 250 children aged between four and 16 and found that all of them had coulrophobia, or an irrational fear of clowns, with even the older ones finding them scary. Sydney's contingent of clown doctors have hit back, saying the old-style Bozo clown with wild orange hair and white skin does not exist in hospitals here and they would never deliberately scare children.
The co-founder of Clown Doctors, Peter Spitzer, said yesterday that years of research had gone into designing clowns who were not intimidating to small people.
"We don't wear wigs, we don't wear giant red noses and the kids can see our skin. We always ask the child's permission, either verbal or non-verbal, before we enter the room, and if a child gets upset we back away immediately.
The fictional use of clowns as a device to create "scares" in the horror genre is old hat and has been around for a long time. For example, what movie fanatic can forget "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" (1988)? In this sense, Stephen King's latest "invention" is sheer third-rate hackwork, which only fools are in a hurry to see.
And the fictional device that takes something most people normally associate with pleasant experiences (alive or inanimate) and transforms it into something menacing and horrible is also very old. Take, for example, a child's doll. An imaginative fictional horror writer transformed that into "talking Tina," a killer doll, made famous in a classic Twilight Zone episode. Similarly, inanimate puppets became frightening killers in many a fictional horror work. And, of course, children have been frequently transformed in horror fiction. See, for example, "The Bad Seed" (1956) or Stephen King's other hackwork "Children of the Corn" (1984).
Thus, clowns are simply another device of fictional horror writers. Next time, maybe cute little kittens will be transformed into maniacal slashers or cute puppies will become brutal creatures feasting on human flesh. You get the idea.
Come now, Paul; say the title to yourself or out loud. You smiled, if not chuckled, right? See, clowns are funny!
Seems to me there is a market opportunity in all of this. Maybe space aliens disguised as clowns? People could be afraid of a clown, then the clown could agree to remove his clown suit only to be a Gorn inside or something. I would recommend that only for cold weather. Sounds like it could get kind of hot. I know, I know… I'm just being "speciest" against the Gorn lot. I'll probably be the subject of a lawsuit soon.
Not a Stephen King fan anyway. Kind of liked The Stand, but I find his plots annoying simple. Although I did like the Salem's Lot TV adaption.
Where's the ACLU and SPLC crackdown on these racist clowns depicted in white-face?
OTOH, there are some clowns out there promoting a positive view of clowns. . .


This is the best part I've seen. Wahhhh..
I believe that this short film from Thailand. You know lahh when Thailand make a good commercial, adds and even short film. The video they make always have good message to it and mostly come in a creative way. There's more video that I like and I will share with you guys later. OKEHHH..
If you happen to know that my current skin condition is practically not as flawless as you girls or guys out there but it is getting better. But it is been 2 years my skin like this and I'm sometime feel ungrateful for my skin. I wish that I have flawless skin as others. Why this skin problem always bothers me. But the moment I watch this short film I realize that there also people out there who face the same problem as I am and ada yang lebih teruk. I should be more thankful now! Honestly, I lost my confident because my skin not so flawless but now, I try to regain my confident level back and I believe to myself. No one will change you except YOU! Ignore negativity as much as you can.. Surrounded by positive vibe.
But another inspired scene in this short film is when the guy try to lose his weight. WAHHH! 2in1 lahh cite ni. You can do it Bebehh! Come on pika.. hahahaa.. Sesi motivasi diri sendiri sebelum tido. Anyway, goodnight guys!


This Mountain Life....: We're open! And EpicMix hits Northstar!
We're open! And EpicMix hits Northstar!
I'm happy to report that the snow was awesome yesterday, and it was great to take some warm up runs before this weekend.
The mountain and the ski school office are officially open, so those of you who've reserved dates on my calendar can call to confirm them with our friendly office staff (Stephanie, Lisa & Jenna). The private lesson line is still 530-562-3848.
And If you've not yet solidified your plans, and want to look or reserve a spot on my calendar it's available at this link. The calendar is not the official version, which is controlled by Stephanie and her team, but I'll be keeping it as up to date as possible. I'm working on embedding it here on the blog, but having a few technical issues with google and Blogger.
Now there's a ton of changes at Northstar which I outlined in an earlier post, and I've now got first hand experience with the most exciting, EpicMix.
Here's my quick take, and there's a great video here embedded down below. I'll try not to gush too much.
Last year over 100,000 people used the EpicMix app at Vail's other resorts allowing them to capture and share mountain achievements. The system tracked how many vertical feet they skied, where they skied, and allowed them to earn fun awards. If you've seen the Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson movie, The Big Year, you'll understand how people made it a competition to see who could ski the most.
The winner, a retiree with a lot of energy, logged 171 days and over 7,209,005 vertical feet of skiing! Yesterday I logged my first three runs, and am proud of my 2,881 vertical feet.
But the best thing about EpicMix is that it's now photo-enabled. I'm sure you all know how much I love taking photos of my students to share with them (or if they are kids, with their parents). But I'm not the best photographer in the world, and skiing backwards while snapping pictures isn't as easy as it may look. So... EpicMix to the rescue!
Northstar will have 25 professional photographers all over the hill, taking pictures for free that will be automatically uploaded to your EpicMix account, and visible online, on your Android or Iphone within just a few hours. The mountain has high speed wifi, and the photos are sent instantaneously to a center in Colorado where they're quality controlled before hitting your account. This is all free of charge, and the privacy is under your control as well. It's totally ok to link your account to Facebook, or not.
Ok...enough gushing... hope to see you all on the slopes soon!
PS... if you want to be friends on EpicMix, just friend me on Facebook, and activate EpicMix after you get your lift ticket or season pass.


As March comes to a close, brackets are being checked more often than Facebook or Twitter. This year, people have a better chance of emotional stability by checking on their cute dog video feeds than their busted March Madness brackets. After sixteenth seed University of Maryland, Baltimore County, or more famously known on Twitter as UMBC, beat number one seed Virgina, no bracket was safe from the madness.
No one even thought Loyola-Chicago would make it past the first round, expect maybe Sister Jean. Well, they busted her bracket too. Sister Jean is just as famous as the Ramblers success, and the guy who led it all, head coach Porter Moser. Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt is the 98-year-old nun who serves as chaplain for the Ramblers squad. For the last 25 years she has given the Rambler men faith to play in the game they all love.
Graphic courtesy of Jake Quatt.
She's become such a symbolic figure in the Ramblers road to the Final Four that the school has even made her her own bobblehead and will be selling them on their athletics website. Her warming prayers and sweetness are just the frosting on the cake for the Ramblers' season.
Before the Madness, the Ramblers went 15-3 in the Missouri Valley Conference, effortlessly earning the conference title. The Ramblers were lead by red shirt junior and the Missouri Valley conference MVP, Clayton Custer with 13.2 points per game and a 52.7 field goal percentage. 13.2 points per game seems like a rather low number for a player with e caliber to be entering the Final Four, but that's exactly what coach Moser wants.
The Ramblers team is so dynamic. The ball is always moving from one teammate to another. In the paint, the Ramblers look to two big guys, senior Donte Ingram and freshman Cameron Krutwig for their post game and rebounding needs. With the extra help of strong contributors like Junior Marques Townes and Senior Aundre Jackson averaging ten points a game, right behind Ingram And Cluster, it makes it easy to share the wealth, but all that much more difficult to guard these Ramblers.
Once tournament time rolled around, the Ramblers weren't too surprised with their seeding in the south region at the 11 seed. Unlike the March Madness powerhouses like Duke and Villanova, the Ramblers were barely at five tournament appearances, and only claimed one tournament championship in 1963.
The Ramblers tipped off in Dallas for the first round of tournament play against the sixth seed with nothing on their minds but basketball and Sister Jean's prayers. Custer led the way in scoring for the Ramblers, but Donte Ingram's buzzer-beater three-pointer is what won the Ramblers their shot to possibly win it all. In a too-close for comfort game, the Ramblers beat the sixth seeded Miami team to advance to the second round in a 64-62 win over the Hurricanes.
Two days later, making it into the sweet sixteen, the Ramblers took their chances with number three seed Tennessee. No one is sure if Sister Jean's prayers aren't getting through with the bad reception in these huge arenas, or the Ramblers just want to keep things interesting, but they sure gave Chicago something to cheer about.
This time it was Cluster's turn to hit that buzzer-beater. The Ramblers were never able to get a steady lead, and it seemed as though, with a little extra push, Tennessee may just win it all. But, Cluster and the Ramblers prevailed pulling off a tight 63-62 win.
Once again, Loyola made Chicago sweat through all their layers and maroon and gold scarves when they faced Nevada in their sweet sixteen game. As the team would argue, the scoring wealth was shared on the team, especially when it comes to bracket-busting, game-winning shots. When it came down for the Ramblers now famous last shot, it was Marques Townes turn to play. Clinging to a one point lead, Townes drowned in a three to secure a Ramblers win, and a spot in the Elite 8.
When the Ramblers broke free from their buzzer-beater-or-nothing pattern, Loyola fans were relieved. In their Elite 8 game against Kansas State, the Ramblers came out too strong for the Wildcats, who were missing considerably their best player and a strong offensive presence in Dean Wade.
The Ramblers took their first significant lead over the Wildcats, and never looked back. They stole the Wildcat's chances at the title, winning 78-62.
Loyola is now the last double-digit number to head into the final four. At this point, it's not impossible to see the Ramblers head to the championship game. With a top 30 defense, top 15 percentage in two pointers and three pointers and wins from seeds way lower than their own, Why not Loyola?
If the Ramblers were to make it all the way, it may as well go down as one of the best NCAA tournament stories in history. All we can hope now, is that Sister Jean's twenty five years of praying will finally pay off.


Designed to be able to read three different time zones simultaneously, the GMT-Master II's 24-hour hand can be a little confusing until you have step-by-step instructions!
Watch Chest has published a quick but detailed video here on how to read the GMT-Master II and multiple time zones but step-by-step photos may be more your style.
The GMT-Master II has the ability to show 3 different time zones simultaneously. You will be using the Hour Hand, Minute Hand, 24-Hour Hand, and the 24-Hour Bidirectional Rotatable Bezel.
In this example, the 24-Hour hand is synchronized to my home Central Standard Time, showing 16:36 on the bezel, and therefore will always be our point of reference. However, I've traveled to California on business and set the hour hand backwards two hours to reflect the local time. It is 2:36 pm in California but a quick read of the 24-Hour Hand and the bezel tells me it is 4:36 pm back home.
While in California I have to make a call to London and would like to know the current time there. Using our 24-Hour Hand's point of reference, London is 6 hours ahead of Central Standard Time. I rotate the bezel forward to align the 6 with the 12 o'clock position, and using the 24-Hour Hand and the Minute Hand, I now know it is 22:36 in London, or 10:36pm.
To reset the bezel to the original point of reference, rotate either way until the triangle is once again aligned with the 12 o'clock position.

FASB proposed targeted changes to hedge accounting standards Thursday that are designed to help financial statements provide an accurate depiction of how an organization manages risk.
Expanding the use of component hedging for nonfinancial and financial risks.
Refining the measurement techniques for hedged items in fair value hedges of benchmark interest rate risk.
Eliminating the separate measurement and reporting of hedge ineffectiveness.
Requiring for cash flow and net investment hedges that all changes in fair value of the hedging instrument included in the hedging relationship be deferred in other comprehensive income and released to the income statement in the period or periods when the hedged item affects earnings.
Requiring that changes in the fair value of hedging instruments be recorded in the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item.
Providing more time for the completion of initial quantitative assessments of hedge effectiveness.
Allowing subsequent assessments of hedge effectiveness to be performed on a qualitative basis when an initial quantitative test is required.
Clarifying the application of the critical terms match method for a group of forecasted transactions.
Allowing an institution that elects the shortcut method to continue hedge accounting by using a "long-haul" method to assess hedge effectiveness if the shortcut was not or no longer is appropriate after hedge inception.
Comments can be submitted through the board's website by Nov. 22. FASB has tentatively scheduled two public round-table meetings to seek additional feedback on Dec. 2; the board requests that those interested in participating in one of the meetings submit written comments on the exposure draft by Nov. 4.


Intravenous Acetaminophen Has Caused Serious Dosing Errors, Especially in Children, That Could Lead To Liver Damage Or Bleeding.
Intravenous (IV) acetaminophen was approved for use in the United States in 2011 and already, there have been numerous reports of medication errors or acetaminophen overdoses, especially in children. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol which is known to cause liver damage or death in accidental Tylenol overdose cases.
An article published January 23 in the journal Pediatrics, alerts doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners and other healthcare providers to be aware of the potential acetaminophen overdose possibility.
Most of the IV acetaminophen overdoses were due to a 10-fold dosing error in children due to improperly calculating the dosage in milligrams (mg), but then administering the medication in milliliters (ml). The solution is supplied 10mg/ml so the medication error causes a child to receive 10 times the normal recommended dose.
Within a year's time frame, there have been 23 reported cases of single or repeated dose errors using the intravenous form of acetaminophen in children under the age of one. Not only did these dosing errors cause harm to infants or children, it also lead to death.
Prior to being approved for use in the US, the IV administration of acetaminophen was approved for use in all ages in other countries, but when the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave it's approval for use in the United States, the approval did not include children under the age of 2. Unfortunately, many times, medications are used off-label, or in situations that were not approved by the FDA. Because infants and toddlers usually spit out the medicine or refuse to take the medicine by mouth, the next best way to give the acetaminophen was IV. The easy way is not always the better way.
Healthcare providers need to establish written policies, protocols and preventative measures to assure that the correct dose of IV acetaminophen is administered to small children. That may also mean that hospitals need to include the hospital pharmacy or a pharmacist on staff to be the second set of eyes so IV acetaminophen overdoses do not happen.
Acetaminophen is primarily metab0lized in the liver so any acetaminophen overdose can lead to liver damage. This can happen even quicker in patients who have some level of underlying liver damage due to alcohol, infections or prescription medications. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) currently recommends that anyone who consumes more than three alcoholic beverages per day should not take acetaminophen.
Signs of too much acetaminophen or Tylenol poisoning can be nausea, vomiting, an overall ill feeling, poor appetite and abdominal pains. If not promptly diagnosed and treated right away, it could lead to liver damage, abnormal blood clotting, hemorrhage or even death.
If you or a loved one suffered from an intravenous medication mistake or Tylenol overdose that led to liver damage, bleeding, or death, please feel free to contact one of our experienced lawyers, doctors or nurses for a strictly confidential and free consultation. Our medication error teams have worked in some of the best Philadelphia hospitals in the emergency department or intensive care units and are very familiar with the injuries a medication error or acetaminophen overdose can cause. To date, we have had numerous million and multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements awarded on behalf of our injured clients. Jim Beasley Jr., MD, JD, has consistently been mentioned in Best Lawyers and Philadelphia Super Lawyers.

Low-frequency focused ultrasound can exert a mechanical force on a tumor to promote the release of biomarkers – chemical signals that are specific to the tumor – into the blood stream.
These tumor biomarkers are typically in the blood at low levels that are difficult to differentiate from any noise, however, after focused ultrasound treatment, the increased levels may be more easily detected1.
This bioeffect has a number of potential clinical applications. After the treatment of a known tumor, focused ultrasound could be used to determine the efficacy of the initial treatment by enabling periodic measurement of the biomarkers. If a potential tumor site has been identified, this mechanism could also be used to determine whether there in fact is a tumor or not. This can even potentially be used to confirm a cancer diagnosis rather than a minimally-invasive biopsy for certain types of cancer. Additionally, the presence or absence of a particular biomarker can be useful in determining the most effective treatment modality for a patient1-3.
