He is being flown via helicopter to local trauma center. However there is an issue the pilot will not allow an armed trooper in the helicopter .

SITTING IN THE COIN OPERATED KID RIDE OUTSIDE OF A FOOD STORE DOESNT COUNT AS FLYING.

How many times do we have to cover this. And sticking you arms out and making plane noises only gets you half credit.

WDBJ7 updated their report after new information from the Virginia State Police. The suspect is alive and in very critical condition after a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

I'm tired of these cowards that commit these acts. Can't stop reading about these outstanding individuals who were killed... i'm just tired of this... keeping them in my thoughts.

Bud will surely have some new tricks up his sleeve but I'm confident he will still be running some form of the Bear as this is the base strategy for most all Bud packages. One thing that I found interesting from the video though is that Meyer clearly recognized what was happening early, but the players just weren't able to take advantage of the weaknesses of the defense. Obviously he made a mistake in thinking that he couldn't run between the tackles at all but it was interesting in re-watching the game how much Barrett threw into the single man coverage down field, and for different reasons, just wasn't able to get it done. Outside of Zeke only getting 8 carries I think anOSU's game plan was fine, the players (primarily the offensive line) just couldn't get it done. If anOSU QB had actually had a little bit of time in the pocket to throw it downfield into the single coverage a little more I think it would have been a different game.

This however is ultimately why I'm unfazed when people refer to anOSU defending the Bear well throughout the rest of the season. Bud's system is intrinsically a high risk, high reward system which absolutely depends of having a dominant pass rush and quick, effecting blitzing (in reference to defending the pass). While anOSU's O-line obviously improved leaps and bounds as the season went on, they also didn't face another Bear defense that was as aggressive or talented as ours, or that was able to bring near as much pressure as ours was. On Sept 7th if one of the best O-lines in college football can subdue one of the best D-lines/pass rushes in college football then the good guys will be in for a long night. If not... I'm not necessarily calling for the win, but Barrett, Jones, or whoever is under center will be in for another very long night.

I understand the desire to minimize the threads about this (as with any topic), but I know I'd appreciate any updates being posted here. Florida news stations likely won't follow very closely unless the situation takes an even more tragic turn.

I'm actually hoping I can work for the corps down in the OBX one day. Hopefully soon...

ITT: a lot of people whose careers are more interesting than mine.

I do not think I've met a graduate students in the sciences that has not hated graduate school at some point. It'll definitely be tough. I chose UCSD over JHU precisely for the curriculum reason. JHU tries to be like med school with a "tough" curriculum; UCSD wanted to get you in the lab as fast as possible. Post grad school, all that matters in your PhD is your research and publications (if you stay in research). A quality mentor with pedigree and quality publications will go much farther than [Elite Institution Here]. But, it sounds like you are well on your way with a good project.

I see what you're saying, but I didn't say it had to be fun, I said it's better if it's something you LIKE to do. If you find your job interesting, you'll probably do a lot better at it. If you read this page, you'll find a lot of people who like what they do.

You'll likely be spending half of your waking time at your job, so I wouldn't recommend doing something you dislike 9 days out of 10. Like a friend of mine says, they call it work for a reason. If somebody is willing to pay you enough to live on, your job probably isn't free of stress.

There are plenty of ways to make money. I'd pick something lucrative that I found interesting. Different strokes for different folks, though.

it the 5-0 Radio scanner app and its virginia state police division 2/3.. its gone really quiet the last few minutes but that would make sense with the reported news that he shot himself.
