NYPD Find Part Believed To Be From Hijacked Airplane Near World Trade Center
Police have confirmed a rusted piece of airplane landing gear found wedged between a mosque and an apartment building as coming from the type of Boeing jet used in the Sept. 11 attacks.
They believe it is from one of the hijacked planes that destroyed the nearby World Trade Center.
On Saturday it was announced detectives had been in contact with officials at Chicago-based Boeing Co. who confirmed the wreckage was from a Boeing 767. Police have said the landing gear had a clearly visible Boeing identification number.
The American Airlines and United Airlines planes hijacked by Islamic extremists in 2001 were Boeing 767s. Boeing spokesman John Dern said he could not confirm whether the ID matched the American Airlines plane or the United Airlines plane.
Workers discovered the landing gear part on Wednesday between a luxury loft rental building and a mosque that in 2010 prompted virulent national debate about Islam and freedom of speech because it's just blocks from ground zero.
On Saturday, yellow police tape blocked access to a metal door that leads to the hidden alley behind the planned Islamic community center, known as Park51.
The medical examiner's office plans to search for Sept. 11 human remains in the alley.
The chief medical examiner's spokeswoman, Ellen Borakove, said the area first will be tested as part of a standard health and safety evaluation for possible toxicity. She said sifting for human remains is to begin Tuesday morning.
Retired fire department Deputy Chief Jim Riches, who lost his son in the terrorist attacks, visited the site on Saturday. He said the latest news left him feeling "upset."
"The finding of this landing gear," he said, "just goes to show that we need federal people in here to do a comprehensive, full search of lower Manhattan to make sure that we don't get any more surprises," as happened in 2007 when body parts were discovered in nearby sewers and manhole covers.
Of the nearly 3,000 victims, Riches noted, about 1,000 families have never recovered any remains.
The New York Police Department has declared the alley a crime scene where nothing may be disturbed until the medical examiner's office completes its work. It's unclear how long that may take, Borakove said.
The piece of wreckage was discovered by surveyors inspecting the planned Islamic community center on behalf of the building's owner, police said.
The twisted metal part - jammed in an 18-inch-wide, trash-laden passageway between the buildings - has cables and levers on it and is about 5 feet high, 17 inches wide and 4 feet long, police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Friday.
"It's a manifestation of a horrific terrorist act a block and a half away from where we stand," he said after visiting the alley.
The commissioner noted that a piece of rope intertwined with the part looks like a broken pulley that may have come down from the roof of the Islamic community center.
When plans for the center became public in 2010, opponents said they didn't want a mosque so close to where Islamic extremists attacked, but supporters said the center would promote harmony between Muslims and followers of other faiths.
The building includes a Muslim prayer space that has been open for three years. After protests died down, the center hosted its first exhibit last year. The space remains under renovation.

Kathryn Rem: A peek at 2013 restaurant menus
It's hard to eat healthfully at this time of year, but 2013 may be a different story.
That's because vegetables are looking like the No. 1 restaurant trend in the new year.
As the budgets of food-service operations continue to rise and Americans seek ways to improve their diets, expect restaurants to offer more meatless meals, innovative salads, creative presentations of roasted and steamed vegetables and more dishes featuring carrots, kale and brussels sprouts.
According to a report from food-research firm Technomic, which interviewed chefs and diners as part of its homework, "Vegetables at the center of the plate will be more prevalent, as consumers continue to seek fresh, local, healthful fare, and operators are squeezed by rising costs for proteins."
Here's what else you'll see in restaurants in 2013, according to Chicago-based Technomic:
Grains. Dishes such as polenta, couscous and bulgar are important in some ethnic cuisines. And several grains — quinoa, amaranth, millet, wild rice, buckwheat — do not contain gluten, so they are leading the way in the growing gluten-free movement.
Chicken. With a reasonable price and lots of ways to prepare it, chicken remains a restaurant staple. Look for more spicy twists on classics, including Latin-accented marinated chicken and African peri-peri chicken.
Snacks. McDonald's has Spicy Chicken McBites, Sonic has cheesecake bites and KFC sells popcorn chicken. Americans are eating around-the-clock and small bites at non-meal times fill the need.
Value-as-volume. Look for more deals like Pizza Hut's Big Dinner Box (two pizzas with multiple sides) and Olive Garden's just concluded promotion called Dinner Today & Dinner Tomorrow (a dine-in and a to-go meal).
Diner and deli fare. Expect to see more premium diner- and deli-inspired dishes, such as meaty sandwiches and full-flavored soups.
Noodles. An international array of noodles — ramen, udon, soba, rice, cellophane — will star in hearty layered bowls, fragrant soups and mixed-textured salads.
South America. Diners who love Asian cuisine looked beyond China to Thailand and Vietnam. Similarly, fans of Mexican foods will explore regions to the south — Brazil, Argentina and Peru. What they'll find is South American-style grilled meats, chimichurri sauce, ceviche and drinks like Brazil's caipirinha and Peru's pisco sour.
Global fast-casual. Build-your-own gourmet burger chains and brick-oven pizza restaurants have been on the rise for some time, but there will be more international flavors in the fast-casual sector. Ahead: American barbecue, Southeast Asian soups and sandwiches and Middle Eastern entrees.
Beverage explosion. Soda, tea and margaritas are fine, but look for a host of new drinks designed to create excitement. A preview: sodas made in-house, cocktails made with candy-flavored vodkas, microdistillery liquors, fresh fruit (especially tropical fruit) beverages, natural energy drinks and more hard ciders.

Ana Alexe
When you see her collections and hear her speak about the laborious process of creation, you have the feeling you just met a contemporary alchemist. Designer Ana Alexe nonchalantly pushes fashion in a realm where bits of mystic exuberance, some meticulous researcher's accuracy and the defiance of the artist clash together. Each piece she makes is lined with mysterious stories, fragile beliefs that often contradict the boldness of the exterior. In the sophisticated silhouette that Ana Alexe proposes, the preconceived notions of beauty, femininity or vulnerability are ironically undermined, subversively challenged then set again on the pedestal in front of a connoisseur public.

Bays extend win streak, spill Sault High
BRIMLEY — The Brimley Bays extended their winning streak to nine games, spilling Sault High 60-55 in the fourth annual Rivals vs. Cancer boys basketball game Tuesday night at the Karl Parker Gym.
Dan Lothrop compiled a double-double with 20 points and 12 rebounds for the Bays (10-1), who beat the Blue Devils in a matchup between teams ranked in the top five in Upper Peninsula polls.
Shane Beaune scored 13 points and added seven rebounds, while Dakota Bowen scored 13 points for the Bays, who were ranked No. 4 in the U.P. Class D poll.
It was the first win over Sault High by the Bays in the Rivals vs. Cancer series.
"It's a huge win for us," Brimley coach Matt Bathey said. "We haven't been playing that well lately, but tonight we played well.
"We stepped it up on defense in the second half," Bathey said. "These kids have no quit in them. I believe in this team and we feel like we can win against all the teams on our schedule."
Ray'Shon Anderson scored 23 points and Terrance Fuller had 10 points for the Blue Devils (6-4), whose own win streak was stopped at four. Sault High was ranked No. 5 in the Class ABC poll.
"Brimley weathered the early storm, and they were the better team in this game," Sault High coach Bill Schomberg said. "They killed us on the boards, and at times it seemed like we were a step slow.
"We're pretty evenly matched teams," Schomberg said. "Maybe if we played 10 times, both teams would win five. It was their night in their gym tonight."
Brimley held a 35-26 rebounding advantage, led by the 6-foot-5 Lothrop.
"We didn't do a good job of getting a body on him, or anybody else," Schomberg said. "We gave them too many offensive rebounds. We've struggled with that all year, except when we played Marquette."
The Blue Devils grabbed the early lead, with Ray'Shon Anderson carrying most of the scoring load. The Blue Devils led by as many as 10 points in the opening quarter.
But the Bays, fueled by some long distance shooting, rallied to take a 31-30 halftime lead.
The Bays ripped off a 9-0 run to close the third quarter with a 45-42 advantage and never trailed again.
The starting five contributed all of the Bays' points. Jason Aikens and Tommy Aikens scored seven points each.
"We shortened our bench and wanted to keep our best players on the floor," Bathey said. "We had to overcome some foul trouble, but our starters had to stay out there to give us the best matchups."
Coming off back-to-back wins over DeTour and Sault High, Brimley takes on another challenge when they visit Eastern U.P. Conference leader Cedarville Friday night.
Sault High returns to Straits Area Conference play at home against Rogers City Friday and travels to Gladstone for a non-league game Saturday.
SAULT HIGH — James 4, Ray'Nell Anderson 5, Bailey 6, Ray'Shon Anderson 23, Root 7, Fuller 10. FT: 7-8; F: 18; 3PFG: 6 (Bailey 2, Ray'Shon Anderson 2, Root 1).
BRIMLEY — J. Aikens 7, Beaune 13, Lothrop 20, T. Aikens 7, Bowen 13. FT: 12-20; F: 9; 3PFG: 6 (Beaune 3, J. Aikens 1, Lothrop 1, Bowen 1).

Dancing with the Stars Episode Recap: Monday, April 1, 2013
Break out your corsages and boutonnieres! It's Prom Night on Dancing with the Stars.
Tom and Brooke are in their prom outfits from yesteryear, and they're glorious. You really can't get much better than a pastel puffy shirt plus hot pink scrunched dress. Also glorious? Brooke's gigantic, '80s teased hair. I can only wish my prom look aged like that.
You can vote for tonight's prom king and queen via Twitter and the winners will get two arbitrary points added to their scores. Gimmicks and it's only Week 3!
Aly Raisman and Mark Ballas: Viennese waltz
Aly is uber-confused by the six-count versus the four-four counts of her previous dances. "I feel like I'm back in math class," she says. For counting? Like preschool? Their "really cool surprise" is a dangling Cupid shooting arrows at both of them. That's so Mark. The routine is very sweet, and Aly doesn't have trouble keeping time. She's not a bonafide technician like Shawn was, but she's very fluid and natural. Len is not impressed like McKayla. "April Fool's!" he shouts. Thank God we got that out of the way. Bruno says she expresses emotion well, but wants her to watch her frame. Carrie Ann wants her to stay in character.
Score: 23
Andy Dick and Sharna Burgess: cha-cha
Andy was homecoming king. What?! Sharna is rockin' a catsuit! Somewhere, Anne Hathaway is crying. Andy drops his breath freshener prop at the beginning and it throws him off for the rest of the routine. He's off-time, and it's sort of terrible overall, not to mention, not really a cha-cha, but it's infectious and hilarious as per yoosh. He ends by stripping off his shirt... and he's packin' a six-pack (of sprayed-on abs). Bruno loves the entertainment value. Carrie Ann loves that he tries. Seriously. "You're like a sneeze. You know it's coming and there's nothing you can do about it," Len says. "You make me feel good. ... Any connection to the cha-cha was a coincidence!"
Score: 18
Ingo Rademacher and Kym Johnson: paso doble
This is Ingo's fantasy prom because his prom "was boring as sh--." That apparently includes riding in on a motorcycle and wearing a wife beater. So his fantasy is Grease 2. Sigh. This should've been a breakthrough dance for Ingo, but it's just there. He's aggressive and powerful, but there's no pop to the routine at all. He's also still rough around the edges technique-wise, which may or may not be due to his "grandpa" bones, but there's something that just isn't clicking yet with him. Carrie Ann wants his core to be stronger. Len wants more posture. Bruno says he needs refinement.
Score: 21
Lisa Vanderpump and Gleb Savchenko: Viennese waltz
Desperate times. Lisa's more concerned with getting votes and Gleb is not helping with his "six" Twitter followers. So Lisa tweets out a shirtless picture of him. I can't argue with that. This is definitely much more Lisa's speed. Her footwork and frame still leave a lot to be desired, but she doesn't look like she's going to die of nerves for once, which is all we can ask for at this point. Len likes the feel of it. Bruno says she was much better, but points out her missed passes. Carrie Ann likes it, but wants her to stay in character.
Score: 21
Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough: jive
"If my partner's capable, I definitely want to push them," Derek says. Hence the "Mad Wasp" face he makes when he's annoyed. Good one, Kellie. They dance to "Footloose," Where's Julianne when you need her? This is unsurprisingly the best routine so far. It's fast as hell and Kellie nails it all. She doesn't have enough bounce, but her flicks and kicks are on-point. She does, however, look like she's going to combust if she flubs. Bruno calls her sharper than a samurai sword. Carrie Ann calls it "ridiculously amazing." "You are officially the queen of the prom," Len declares.
Score: 25
Victor Ortiz and Lindsay Arnold: contemporary
Lindsay asks what Victor's prom was like. He never went to prom because "I was broke." Awkward. It's the Night of the Bottom Two Comeback apparently. Who would've thought Victor's breakthrough would be contemporary? It's a gorgeous and smooth number, and these two actually have chemistry! Figures Lindsay, a So You Think Can Dance alum, will bring it for contemporary. Carrie Ann calls it breathtaking. Len is "pleasantly surprised." Bruno calls it unbelievable.
Score: 23
D.L. Hughley and Cheryl Burke: salsa
D.L. didn't graduate high school, but he was a rent-a-prom-date for a rate of $25 back in 1981. Lucky ladies! They dance to "Sex Machine" and it's anything but. Poor D.L. He's just not meant to dance. He's stiff, wooden, and his hips can barely get out of fifth gear. "It was as untidy as a teenager's bedroom," Len says. Bruno says he looked like a case of hip replacement. Carrie Ann says he's making baby steps. "It's hard for me to move my hips because every time I do, a kid pops out," D.L. quips.
Score: 16
Jacoby Jones and Karina Smirnoff: rumba
Jacoby went to prom last minute by himself and got kicked out. His high school is no more after Hurricane Katrina, so he's dedicating the dance in memory of his school. I love how the judges were basically challenging Jacoby last week to see if he can focus and bring it in a serious ballroom routine. Well, he does. It's a lovely, sensual number, and Jacoby's fluid and effortless. And shirtless. Bruno calls it brilliant. Carrie Ann says he has incredible artistry. Len loves the quality of movement.
Score: 24
Wynonna and Tony: samba
Wynonna wants to unleash her inner tigress. So Tony throws in some pole-dancing and brings her to meet Def Leppard, as you would do. They're wearing their best Rock of Ages gear and year's worth of mascara, which are the only things rockin' about this. There's no tigress and if it's possible, Wynonna's regressing. She just dances so damn small. Seriously, she's like tiptoeing through this. I can probably sleepwalk faster. Carrie Ann calls it a "whisper." Len says she didn't move. Bruno says she's got to hit it hard.
Score: 15
Sean Lowe and Peta Murgatroyd: cha-cha
Sean hands out another rose - or a corsage, if you really want to be specific - to Peta. The Bachelor is over, guys! They're dancing to "YMCA," so Peta's the Indian chief and Sean's the construction worker. He looks as good as anyone would dancing in overalls. The routine's entertaining, and Sean, like Andy, tries so hard, but he's so awkward and gawky. He's sort of how I picture the Tin Man would dance. Len likes the attitude and calls it his best dance. Bruno wants him to work on his bookshelf. "There was one thing missing from that routine," Carrie Ann says. "Bruno." Oh, snap! Who wrote that one for her?
Score: 21
Zendaya and Val Chmerkovskiy: Viennese waltz
Zendaya's grandmother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, so she's dedicating the dance to her grandma. She even gets to pick her song: "Que Sera Sera." Way to play favorites, ABC. I kid. Sort of. Zendaya kills it. Again. It's charming and lyrical. Some of her spins get a little out of control, but it's pretty polished overall. Bruno calls it beautiful. Carrie Ann loves her fluidity. Len is tired of the windmill arms.
Score: 24
So Kellie and Derek dethrone Zendaya and Val from the top with 25. And Wynonna and Tony dethrone D.L. and Cheryl from the bottom with 15.
What did you think? Did you like Prom Night? Was Kellie the best of the night? Who would you crown king and queen? Does Derek look like a Mad Wasp? What was your prom like? What did you wear? (Me: Sage dress, got tiramisu on my wrap and met Orlando Jones afterward.) Who do you think will leave tomorrow?

The House in the Night. By Susan Marie Swanson. Illustrated by Beth Krommes. Houghton Mifflin, 40 pp., $17. Ages 2–5.
By Janice Harayda
This lovely and thoroughly inoffensive 2009 Caldecott award–winner should hearten anybody who sees the American Library Association as a hotbed of Communists who keep trying to sneak into kids' hands books on dangerous topics like sex education and environmentalism. The House in the Night is pretty as can be but shows the ALA in full retreat from the days when it gave medals to trailblazing books like The Little House, Where the Wild Things Are and Jumanji.
There's no doubt that as the financial maelstrom rages, many people will welcome this gentle story about the comforts of home in the darkness. As night falls, a young girl receives a key to a tidy house that has glowing lamp. She enters and finds on a bed a book about a dove-like bird that carries her on its wings toward the moon and back to a home "full of light."
None of the action in this tale has a catalyst that is remotely upsetting or disturbing, such as Max's getting sent to bed without his supper in Where the Wild Things Are. Susan Marie Swanson found the inspiration for this cumulative story in one of the nursery rhymes collected by the estimable Iona and Peter Opie ("This is the key of the kingdom: / In that kingdom is a city"). And although nursery rhymes can be sadistic, this book minds its manners. Swanson tells her story in short-lined poetry so low keyed, most critics seem to have missed it despite lines like "the house in the night / a home full of light."
Beth Krommes's illustrations have a minimalist color palette unusually sophisticated for a picture book. Krommes uses just three colors – black, white and yellow – and watercolor and scratchboard techniques that give the art the look of wood engravings. She also reduces her images to essentials: a cat, a doll, a brush, teddy bears, sweaters in a bedroom drawer. Her "house in the night" is a cottage — the roof appears thatched — that could have come from a benevolent fairy tale. Even the sun has a smiling face with long eyelashes. The girl soars on her bird's wings over a pastoral landscape that, the cars suggest, belongs to the 1940s.
All of these scenes have a cozy familiarity – too much of it for a Caldecott winner. Everything in this derivative book reminds you of something else. That brush in the bedroom? Goodnight Moon. That color palette? Wanda Gág's Millions of Cats. The structure of the story? "This Is the House That Jack Built."
The borrowed elements in The House in the Night generally work well together and add up to a good book. But you expect more than good from the winner of the Caldecott Medal, awarded to "the most distinguished American picture book for children." You expect greatness, or at least a higher level of originality – the boldness of winners like Virginia Lee Burton's The Little House, which dealt with suburban sprawl decades before it became fashionable, or David Macaulay's Black and White, which wove together multiple plots in way new to picture books.
The House in the Night leaves you wondering if the Caldecott judges wanted to find the best book, or just to administer a dose of bibliotherapy to a nation that needs it. You also wonder if the committee overreacted to recent criticisms that the ALA awards don't honor enough poetry by honoring a book some may not recognize as poetry at all. And why are the organization's judges such suckers for books about reading? This pattern goes back at least to the 1991 Newbery for Maniac Magee. But books about the power of reading aren't inherently worthier of awards than those about plumbing or red-tailed hawks: Everything depends on the execution.
Certainly the Caldecott committee snubbed books as award-worthy as this one, including Pale Male and The Little Yellow Leaf. For all its virtues, The House in the Night has nothing so unusual about it that schools and libraries need to have it, the way they do need have the 2008 winner, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, which has strong and unique merits. Oddly enough, if the Caldecott judges wanted to help a nation in financial turmoil, they did it, but not in the intended way: They selected a book that no one needs to rush out to buy.
Best line/picture: "the house in the night / a home full of light."
Worst line/picture: This book depicts cars more than a half century old but a lamp that looks inspired by the latest Pottery Barn catalog.
Published: May 2008

At the dawn of the Internet era, Congress set out to avert a digital divide between rich and poor students. In a landmark bill, lawmakers required the nation's phone companies to provide bargain voice and data rates to schools and to subsidize the cost of equipment and services, with the biggest subsidies going to the schools with the most disadvantaged children.
More than a decade later, as schools struggle for funding amid widespread budget cuts, there is growing evidence that the program's crucial low-price requirement has been widely neglected by federal regulators and at least one telecom giant.
A decade after the program started, AT&T was still not training its employees about the mandatory low rates, which are supposed to be set at the lowest price offered to comparable customers. Lawsuits and other legal actions in Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, and New York have turned up evidence that AT&T and Verizon charged local school districts much higher rates than it gave to similar customers or more than what the program allowed.
AT&T has charged some schools up to 325 percent more than it charged others in the same region for essentially the same services. Verizon charged a New York school district more than twice as much as it charged government and other school customers in that state.
The companies say they comply with the rules of the program, known as E-Rate.
Meanwhile, the federal government has made scant effort to enforce the requirement that companies give the preferential rate to schools. The Federal Communications Commission, which oversees the program, has yet to bring an enforcement action against any carrier for violating the low-price rule, according to interviews and documents, some obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. And the FCC, acting through the private company that administers the program, has provided little if any guidance to companies on how to apply the best-price rule. Indeed, in 2010, companies such as AT&T and Verizon sought clarification on the rule.
"Time and again, we find that schools are rarely advised by the telephone companies of their best available rates," said Howard Rotto, whose New York consulting firm has represented dozens of schools in the Northeast for four decades. "When representatives of the carrier do not even know of the existence of their best pricing," Rotto asked, "how can such a rate ever be offered or known?"
At the most basic level, the victims of this failure are the nation's schoolchildren who receive suboptimal broadband access. Many requests for assistance cannot be funded under the current program. If lower prices were charged, more schools could benefit.
But there's another set of victims: the vast majority of people with a cellular or landline phone contract.
As designed by Congress, telecom companies must contribute to a fund, administered by the federal government, that subsidizes the equipment and services provided under the program. Most of the companies raise this money by directly charging their customers.
Sift through that pile of papers at home and take a look at your monthly bill. Amidst all those charges you've never really understood you'll probably find a small one labeled "Universal Service Fund." Skimmed off every consumer's payment each month, those dollars and nickels add up, creating a pot of money of about $2.25 billion to subsidize telecom and Internet services for America's schoolchildren and library users.
Schools and libraries draw on this fund to help pay for the services provided by the telecom companies—virtually all schools are eligible, but the poorer the school, the more it can draw. Requests for help almost always exceed the available funding. So when phone companies charge inflated rates to schools and government regulators turn a blind eye, this fund is depleted faster; fewer schools and libraries benefit; and money taken from millions of telephone customers goes to boost corporate profits instead of to help as many schoolchildren as possible.
Indeed, a perverse bureaucratic process denies most schools the funding to carry broadband services all the way into actual classrooms. Here's how it works: Schools are rarely if ever turned down for funding to bring broadband main lines to the exterior walls of the schoolhouse.
But the internal connections, from wiring to jacks, that complete the last leg and extend connectivity down to actual classrooms, computers and telephones are deemed a lower priority, so-called "Priority 2." (Priority 2 also includes maintenance.) As a result, only the very poorest schools are eligible for this funding. The rest—including many poor-but-not-destitute schools—don't get the subsidies to carry broadband that last crucial stretch from outside the schoolhouse to inside classrooms.
Last year, the E-Rate program received Priority 2 requests totaling more than twice as much money as it could fund. Worse, many schools don't even bother to apply for "Priority 2" services because they know they'll be turned down. Wisconsin estimated in 2005 that 98 percent of its schools and libraries do not qualify. In 2010 New York wrote to the FCC, "Many otherwise needy schools and libraries have received no Internal Connections funding—ever!" And the FCC itself declared in 2010 that "the vast majority" of schools and libraries "do not receive funds for the internal infrastructure necessary to utilize increased broadband capacity."
From 2009 to 2011, Priority 1 services accounted for about two-thirds of the funds committed. This year, the estimated demand for Priority 1 services will essentially exhaust the entire fund.
How could Congress's plan have gone so far awry?
An examination of the program by ProPublica shows that from the beginning, oversight of how the money was spent was turned over to private companies that employ numerous former telecom executives.
The leading company hired to oversee the program provided little if any training or guidance to phone companies over the past decade in how to calculate the bargain prices, known as "lowest corresponding price." Instead, according to documents and interviews, it focused on the schools, examining whether their purchases of equipment were cost effective. The company and the FCC even forced schools and libraries—many of them unskilled in negotiating complex telecom contracts—to pay millions of dollars in penalties for failing to follow the program's voluminous and cumbersome rules.
Yet 16 years after the law passed, the FCC has not brought even one case against a phone company for violating the "lowest corresponding price" requirement. Efforts to enforce the rule have come exclusively through private legal action, such as lawsuits, and one Justice Department-led investigation that examined pricing in Indiana.
Much about the E-Rate program remains hidden from public view. Telecom contracts are mostly private, so it is not possible to judge how frequent or widespread violations of the lowest-corresponding-price rule might be. For this report, ProPublica relied on documents, many obtained from lawsuits, as well as dozens of interviews.
Mike Balmoris, a spokesman for AT&T, declined to answer specific questions about the company's practices but released a statement saying, "AT&T complies fully with the E-Rate requirements, including the lowest corresponding price rule."
In an e-mail, Verizon spokesman Ed McFadden said the company regularly trains its employees on all legal obligations, "including requirements of the E-Rate program," as part of a larger effort "to conduct business with all our customers at the highest ethical standards." The FCC also declined to answer questions.
A statement provided by an FCC spokesman, Mark Wigfield, cited the program's overall success; the commission's efforts to improve "safeguards against waste, fraud and abuse;" rules requiring schools to engage in competitive bidding to ensure low prices; and audits by the private company regulating the program that compare prices that companies charge schools to "those charged other customers."
The FCC declined to make those audits available. But through a FOIA request, ProPublica requested every audit for the first 12 years of the E-Rate program involving the lowest-corresponding-price rule. The government provided what it said was a complete set—a mere nine audits.
In broad terms, they show that regulators paid little attention to telecom service providers while coming down hard on schools. Indeed, most of the audits deal with the companies as a side issue; the main focus is on whether the schools, not the companies, complied with the program's complex regulations. Some of the audits are heavily redacted, but in the available text none mentions lowest corresponding price, the key cost-saving requirement.
The E-Rate program
E-Rate was created through the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which President Bill Clinton made law through the first e-signing of a federal bill. The act mandated broader telecommunications access through four programs, including E-Rate for the nation's schools and libraries.
When a school or library qualifies for E-Rate, the fund subsidizes 20 percent to 90 percent of the telecom bill, depending on how poor the school or library is. (A key measure of poverty: the percentage of students who qualify for the government's free or reduced-cost school lunch program.)
The FCC says the program has been a success. At the time of E-Rate's launch, 65 percent of public schools were connected to the Internet. By 2005, about 97 percent were, thanks largely to E-Rate, according to the FCC.
A few days after signing the act, Clinton highlighted "a requirement for companies to provide a discount for connecting all of our classrooms and libraries to the information superhighway."
One reason for the bargain-rate requirement is to make sure that as many schoolchildren and library patrons as possible benefit. Another reason to require companies to provide preferential rates, according to the FCC, is that many schools and libraries suffer from a "lack of experience" when it comes to "negotiating in a competitive telecommunications market." Indeed, telecom pricing is notoriously complex and opaque, and the E-Rate program benefits "many of nation's poorest and most isolated communities," according to an FCC document.
Under FCC regulations, schools are required to try to obtain competitive bids from phone companies, while the companies are required to charge no more than their "lowest corresponding price," which the agency defined as "the lowest price [a telecom company] charges to similarly situated non-residential customers for similar services."
Weak enforcement
Almost from the inception of the program, phone companies have advocated for leeway in determining the lowest corresponding price. In 1997, representatives from five former Bell companies—three of which are now part of AT&T—wrote to the FCC that companies should be allowed "to determine the lowest corresponding price—based on a consideration of factors normally used in determining prices within a competitive market."
Meanwhile, the FCC has repeatedly declined to back the pricing rule with tough enforcement. In 1997, the FCC proposed that companies could get reimbursed through the program only if they first certified that they had complied specifically with the pricing rule—a strong legal requirement that might have left companies liable to the federal False Claims Act if they misrepresented their prices. The FCC cited the "universe of records" a company "must review to determine lowest corresponding price." But the agency never enacted that certification proposal.
In 2005, the FCC again proposed that service providers, as part of their annual E-Rate filings, certify specifically they had charged the "lowest" price to schools and libraries. But after industry opposition, the plan was dropped, according to public filings. Wigfield, the FCC spokesman, declined to say why the agency did not require certification. (The FCC does require a broad, annual certification, in which companies are instructed to affirm their compliance with E-Rate rules.)
The FCC, through the nonprofit firm Universal Service Administrative Co., or USAC, has taken action against phone companies for a variety of infractions—but never has it demanded a refund or penalty for violating the lowest-corresponding-price rule.
As for AT&T, as recently as 2007 it issued its employees a 61-page "E-Rate Compliance Training" manual, used as part of an annual required course for employees. The pricing rule is not mentioned.
In its statement to ProPublica, the company spokesman said, "AT&T has implemented training and procedures to ensure compliance with all E-Rate requirements."

Commentary: Cultivating our bewitchment
By George Will WASHINGTON -- Even Jonathan Swift, who said promises and pie crusts are made to be broken, might have marveled at the limited shelf life of Barack Obama's promise of a "balanced" deficit-reduction plan -- substantial spending cuts ...
By George Will
WASHINGTON - Even Jonathan Swift, who said promises and pie crusts are made to be broken, might have marveled at the limited shelf life of Barack Obama's promise of a "balanced" deficit-reduction plan - substantial spending cuts to accompany revenue increases. Obama made short shrift of that promise when he demanded $1.6 trillion in immediate tax increases and mostly unspecified domestic cuts. He also promised to cut $800 billion from 10 years of war spending that will end in two years, which is like "cutting" $800 billion by deciding not to build a ski resort on Mars.
Year after year, the Democratic-controlled Senate, ignoring the law, refuses to pass budgets. Year after year, Washington makes big government cheap by charging Americans only $6 for every $10 of government services, borrowing the difference. And the biggest purchaser of U.S. government debt is not China but ... the U.S. government, largely through the Federal Reserve. Yet what supposedly is horrifying is a sequester that would cut less than 3 percent of federal spending over the next decade?
Or horrible Grover Norquist. Although a surfeit of numbers are being bandied, a pertinent one is missing - the number of legislators who have pledged to Norquist not to raise taxes. The number is: Zero. All pledges have been to voters. Progressives lament the public's distrust of the political class, while urging many members of it to treat their promises as pie crusts.
Given progressives' "principled" refusal to countenance entitlement reforms, the principal drivers of the fiscal imbalance will not be untouched even by raising, from 65, the age of Medicare eligibility. In 1965, the year this program was created, the average life expectancies of men and women at age 65 were another 13.5 and 18 years respectively. Today they are 19 and 21, and rising. Given modern medical - especially pharmacological - marvels, longevity often involves living with several chronic ailments that might have been fatal a generation ago. For liberals, however, no demographic or scientific changes need be accommodated.
Democrats insist the manufactured unpleasantness due Jan. 1 is a crisis of insufficient revenues. But Jeffrey Dorfman, a University of Georgia economics professor, thinks arithmetic says otherwise. Writing for RealClear-Markets, he says possible tax increases and spending cuts would reduce the current deficit by less than a third, leaving a deficit larger than any run by any president not named Obama.
At the end of the Clinton administration, when the budget was balanced (largely by revenues generated by commercialization of the Internet), annual federal spending was $1.94 trillion and revenue was $2.10 trillion. "Adjusting for inflation and population growth since the start of 2001," Dorfman writes, "today's equivalents would be $2.77 trillion and $3.00 trillion," and a $230 billion surplus.
What is to blame for today's huge imbalance? The Bush tax cuts? The recession? Obama's spending? Dorfman answers yes, yes and yes - but that "spending is the main culprit" because: Today federal revenue is $2.67 trillion (slightly less than "the Clinton equivalent") and spending is $3.76 trillion, so we are spending $987 billion more than we would be if we had just increased Bill Clinton's last budget for inflation and population growth.
"Philosophy," said the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, "is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language." In unphilosophic Washington, bewitchment is cultivated. Notice how quickly and thoroughly a phrase used intermittently for more than 50 years - "fiscal cliff " - was made ubiquitous by one of Washington's least flamboyant speakers (Ben Bernanke). This melodramatic language encourages the supposition that plunging off the (metaphorical) cliff is unthinkable. But as this column has hitherto noted, the cliff 's consequences - huge tax increases and defense cuts - are progressivism's agenda. And Obama needs to restock the pantry where he stores his excuses for his economic policy failures. The tax increases would augment his policy of enlarging government's control of the nation's economic output, and he could henceforth blame continuing economic anemia on Republicans who supposedly should have averted what progressives desire.
The shrillness of "cliff " talk bewitches minds that should be skeptical about the supposed point of all this - deficit reduction. Conservatives, many of whom are such because they understand government's metabolic urge to metastasize, believe that spending cuts will be chimeras.
Given Obama's "principled" stance against "obdurate" Republicans, the cliff can be dodged only by imposing tax policies that further darken the nation's future, and government spending would continue to rise even under the sequester-imposed "austerity." More bewitchment of intelligence by language.

In 2006, members of a notorious crime gang cased the online storefronts belonging to 7-Eleven, Hannaford Brothers, and other retailers. Their objective: to find an opening that would allow their payment card fraud ring to gather enough data to pull off a major haul. In the waning days of that year they hit the mother lode, thanks to Russian hackers identified by federal investigators as Hacker 1 and Hacker 2.
Located in the Netherlands and California, the hackers identified a garden-variety flaw on the website of Heartland Payment Systems, a payment card processor that handled some 100 million transactions per month for about 250,000 merchants. By exploiting the so-called SQL injection vulnerability, they were able to gain a toe-hold in the processor's network, paving the way for a breach that cost Heartland more than $12.6 million.
The hack was masterminded by the now-convicted Albert Gonzalez and it's among the most graphic examples of the damage that can result from vulnerabilities that riddle just about any computer that serves up a webpage. Web application security experts have long cautioned such bugs can cost businesses dearly, yet those warnings largely fall on deaf ears. But in the wake of the Heartland breach there was no denying the damage they can cause. In addition to the millions of dollars the SQL injection flaw cost Heartland, the company also paid with its loss of reputation among customers and investors.
The incident was hardly an anomaly. In the years that followed, a crop of other websites big and small have fallen victim to attacks that exploit SQL injection bugs, cross-site scripting flaws, and a series of other vulnerabilities. These small openings allow attackers to inject malicious code into an end user's browser or hijack a Web server altogether. Last month, the website for Reporters without Borders was commandeered so attackers could surreptitiously install malware on the computers of visitors. Attacks who exploit website flaws so the perpetrators can infect their visitors have grown so common they've given rise to the term watering hole attacks. The name comes because the hackers are like hunters who camp out at ponds in wait of thirsty prey in need of something to drink.
Odds are...
What all of this means is that unless you've recently had a professional security team audit your website, chances are it's susceptible to a host of vulnerabilities.
According to the most recent ranking of the top 10 vulnerabilities by the Open Web Application Security Project, the most common website threats include:
These occur when Web apps send user input and other untrusted data to an interpreter, such as a SQL database. Attackers like those working for Gonzalez find these bugs using scanners and can exploit them to steal password tables or other sensitive data. The flaws can also be milked to carry out denial of access attacks or even completely take over the underlying Web server. Individual vulnerabilities can be so numerous they're often akin to garden weeds that are hard to completely eradicate. The best way to prevent them is to rely on Web apps that sanitize user input before handing it off to a back-end server. Owasp's preferred way of avoiding injection attacks is to employ "a safe API which avoids the use of the interpreter entirely or provides a parameterized interface."
Cross-site scripting
Broken authentication and session management
These errors reside in apps used to log users in to restricted parts of a site. Typically, they're found in custom-developed schemes that make some sort of critical error, such as requiring a session ID that is easy to guess or included in the URL. As their name implies, they result in such schemes not working the way they're supposed to, allowing attackers to take unauthorized control of user accounts and perform any action the valid user would, including deleting sensitive e-mail or data. The best way to keep clear of these vulnerabilities is to avoid custom-developed schemes in favor of one that has been well tested.
Insecure direct object references
These flaws stem from Web apps that use the actual name or key of an object in a URL when generating a page. In some cases, attackers can exploit these to gain powerful administrator privileges, simply by modifying some of the URL text. To prevent such errors, websites should use per-user or session indirect object references, which can't be manipulated.
Cross-site request forgery
CSRF exploits use fake websites to generate forged HTTP requests that attack end users of a vulnerable website. Attackers exploit these mistakes to force an end user to execute unwanted actions on a website she's already logged into. Exploits can force the victim to unwittingly delete e-mails or carry out any other authorized operation. Attacks can be especially devastating when the affected end user controls the administrator account. To prevent CSRF vulnerabilities, Web apps should employ unpredictable tokens in the body or URL of each HTTP request and should be unique per user session or per request.
Next, the five other major website security pitfalls and some final thoughts on precautions to take.

Pearson, Proctor, Fontaine make All-SAC team
The Cheboygan boys' basketball team's 2012-2013 season saw tons of improvement.
A lot of that was because of junior guard Ben Pearson, as well as seniors Damon Proctor and Jordan Fontaine. Together, each helped the Chiefs to a 10-10 overall record and a 7-3 record in the Straits Area Conference.
For their efforts on the court, the three Cheboygan players were recently named to the All-Straits Area Conference Boys Basketball Team.
Pearson, who had a breakout offensive season for the Chiefs, secured a spot on the All-SAC First Team. Pearson led the Chiefs in scoring, averaging 12 points a game, while also recording an average of seven rebounds per contest. Pearson also finished the season with 26 assists and a team-high 57 steals on defense.
On the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, Pearson was as valuable as any player for the Chiefs this season.
"Ben had a great season," Cheboygan coach Kevin Baller said of Pearson, who scored 234 points and grabbed 132 rebounds this season. "He was a big catalyst for us on the boards and helping us score. It was a very good year for Ben."
Meanwhile, Proctor secured a nod on the All-SAC Second team, while Fontaine earned an All-SAC honorable mention.
After suffering a severe knee injury which barred him from playing his junior season, Proctor returned and was solid at the point guard position for the Chiefs, averaging six points and four rebounds, as well as contributing with 52 total assists.
"He was a big part of the team this season," Baller said of Proctor. "He's not a point guard, and he knows that, but he's confident in his abilities, he saw the floor real well, and he distributed ball and got it where it needed to go. Especially last year, and sitting out last season, I thought he gave us great minutes all season."
Perhaps the most improved player over the course of his career was Fontaine, who just about did it all for the Chiefs this season, whether it was offense or defense. For the season, Fontaine averaged 8.9 points and four rebounds a game, while contributing with 49 assists and 33 steals.
"The thing about Jordan was he put in a lot of time over the summer to improve his skills," Baller said. "I thought Jordan had a phenomenal year. If you go back and look at the defensive side of the ball, Jordan and Andrew Dixon--their job was to defend the team's opposing best players--and they did that well. Jordan, I thought, did a great job defensively against teams."
Joining Pearson on the first team were Sault Ste. Marie's Ray'Shon Anderson and St. Ignace's Curtis St. Louis, who were named as the conference's Co-players of the year. Kyle Root (Sault) and Greg Kreski (St. Ignace) also made the first team.
In addition to Proctor's second team nod, he was joined by Ray'Nell Anderson (Sault), Terrance Fuller (Sault), Kurt King (St. Ignace) and Garrett Laponsie (Rudyard).
Brennan Danielson (St. Ignace), Cody Mesnard (Rudyard), Kyle Welty (Newberry), J.J. Sutton (Newberry) and Paul Wilbert (Rogers City) all received honorable mention recognition.

The director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), David Kappos, announced Monday that he will step down from his post in January. President Barack Obama has not named a successor.
Kappos was serving as the top patent attorney for IBM when Pres. Obama asked him to take over the USPTO in 2009. When he arrived, the University of California Berkeley alumnus inherited a patent system in crisis. The USPTO was facing a growing backlog of pending patent applications—and the volume of patent litigation was increasing rapidly in the IT sector.
Kappos made several significant changes to the USPTO during his tenure. He announced the creation of USPTO satellite offices in Detroit, Dallas, Denver, and Silicon Valley. In addition, he worked with Stack Exchange to create a new website to crowdsource the search for prior art.
The patent veteran was a key figure behind the passage of the America Invents Act, last year's overhaul of the patent system. The AIA made some key procedural changes to patent law, most notably a switch from the first-to-invent rule the United States has used for two centuries to a first-to-file rule that was more common elsewhere in the world.
The AIA also provided Kappos with more resources to pursue one of his key priorities: hiring more patent examiners to deal with the backlog of pending patent applications. These efforts bore fruit, as the number of pending applications fell steadily during his term.
But the AIA did not include the kind of fundamental changes that reformers say will be needed to bring the litigation explosion under control. Indeed, for most of his term, Kappos stayed mum about hot-button issues such as the patentability of software, focusing instead on procedural reforms such as hiring examiners and instituting a new "post-grant review" process for issued patents.
Last week, perhaps anticipating that his imminent departure would make it easier for him to speak his mind, Kappos made it clear that he was first and foremost a defender of the status quo. In an address at the Center for American Progress, Kappos called the American patent system "the envy of the world," and told the system's critics to "give it a rest already."
"The explosion of litigation we are seeing is a reflection of how the patent system wires us for innovation," Kappos argued last week. "It's natural and reasonable that innovators would seek to protect their breakthroughs using the patent system."
The question remains: will Pres. Obama name a more reform-minded successor? We here at Ars are not going to hold our breaths. The Obama Administration has demonstrated little interest in serious patent reform, and USPTO directors tend to be patent system insiders. You don't become the head of the nation's patent office without broad support among patent attorneys. Plus, whatever else you might say about our current litigant-friendly laws, they have been lucrative for the patent bar.

$590M-plus Powerball Ticket Sold in Zephyrhills
DES MOINES, Iowa | It's all about the odds, and one lone ticket in Florida has beaten them all by matching each of the numbers drawn for the highest Powerball jackpot in history at an estimated $590.5 million, lottery officials said Sunday.
The single winner was sold at a supermarket in Zephyrhills, Fla., according to Florida Lottery executive Cindy O'Connell. She told The Associated Press by telephone that more details would be released later.
"This would be the sixth Florida Powerball winner and right now, it's the sole winner of the largest ever Powerball jackpot," O'Connell told AP. "We're delighted right now that we have the sole winner."
She said Florida has had more Powerball winners than any other state.
The winner was not immediately identified publicly and O'Connell did not give any indication just hours after Saturday's drawing whether anyone had already stepped forward with that winning ticket.
With four out of every five possible combinations of Powerball numbers in play, lottery executives said earlier that someone was almost certain to win the game's highest jackpot, a windfall of hundreds of millions of dollars — and that's after taxes.
Saturday night's winning numbers were 10, 13, 14, 22 and 52, with a Powerball of 11.
Estimates had earlier put the jackpot at around $600 million. But Powerball's online site said Sunday that the jackpot had reached an estimated $590.5 million.
Terry Rich, CEO of the Iowa Lottery, initially confirmed that one Florida winning ticket had been sold. He told AP that following the Florida winner, the Powerball grand prize was being reset at an estimated jackpot of $40 million, or about $25.1 million cash value.
The chances of winning the prize were astronomically low: 1 in 175.2 million. That's how many different ways you can combine the numbers when you play. But lottery officials estimated that about 80 percent of those possible combinations had been purchased recently.
While the odds are low for any one individual or individuals, O'Connell said, the chance that one hits paydirt is what makes Powerball an "exciting game to play."
"There is just the chance that you will have the opportunity and Florida is a huge Powerball state. We have had more winners than any other state that participates in Powerball."
Such longshot odds didn't deter people across Powerball-playing states — 43 plus Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands — from lining up at gas stations and convenience stores Saturday for their chance at striking it filthy rich.
Calls by AP to the Publix supermarket outlet in Florida where the winning ticket was sold were not answered Sunday.
Elsewhere, Rich said, lottery officials reported 33 winning tickets for a $1,000,000 prize each were sold around 17 states, led by six tickets in New York. He said lotteries reported 2 winning tickets each for the $2,000,000 PowerPlay, one in New York and the other in South Carolina.
Before the drawing, there was a rush for tickets around the country.
At a mini market in the heart of Los Angeles' Chinatown, employees broke the steady stream of customers into two lines: One for Powerball ticket buyers and one for everybody else. Some people appeared to be looking for a little karma.
"We've had two winners over $10 million here over the years, so people in the neighborhood think this is the lucky store," employee Gordon Chan said as he replenished a stack of lottery tickets on a counter.
The world's largest jackpot was a $656 million Mega Millions jackpot in March 2012. If $600 million, the jackpot would currently include a $376.9 million cash option.
Clyde Barrow, a public policy professor at the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth, specializes in the gaming industry. He said one of the key factors behind the ticket-buying frenzy is the size of the jackpot — people are interested in the easy investment.
"Even though the odds are very low, the investment is very small," he said. "Two dollars gets you a chance."
That may be why Ed McCuen has a Powerball habit that's as regular as clockwork. The 57-year-old electrical contractor from Savannah, Ga., buys one ticket a week, regardless of the possible loot. It's a habit he didn't alter Saturday.
"You've got one shot in a gazillion or whatever," McCuen said, tucking his ticket in his pocket as he left a local convenience store. "You can't win unless you buy a ticket. But whether you buy one or 10 or 20, it's insignificant."
Seema Sharma doesn't seem to think so. The newsstand employee in Manhattan's Penn Station purchased $80 worth of tickets for herself. She also was selling tickets all morning at a steady pace, instructing buyers where to stand if they wanted machine-picked tickets or to choose their own numbers.
"I work very hard — too hard — and I want to get the money so I can finally relax," she said. "You never know."
Associated Press Radio Correspondent Julie Walker and AP writers Jeffrey Collins in Columbia, S.C., Betsy Blaney in Lubbock, Texas, Russ Bynum in Savannah, Ga., John Rogers in Los Angeles and Verena Dobnick in New York contributed to this report.

How Do I Cancel An Order On Fiverr
Before creating your gig listing on Fiverr, consider what your potential buyer may want from your gig. What are your main requirements for your gig? Are you able to meet these needs quickly? These are all questions that buyers might ask. To attract customers, a clear description of your gig will be essential. Listed gigs should also contain details on how long your services will take, what revisions they'll need, and how much you'll charge per revision.
Although Fiverr has many positive aspects, there are also some downsides. These sellers can pose a threat to American businesses. One example is Big Fat Daddy's catering business, which was destroyed when a competitor bought a five-dollar "fake review" gig. His business was damaged by one-star reviews on Facebook from people in other countries. Eventually, Big Fat Daddy's customers stopped ordering from him.
If you're looking for a flexible freelance gig, Fiverr might be the right place for you. Fiverr allows buyers and sellers to pay in advance. Freelancers can charge up to 80% of the order's value. While it's important to note that prices for gigs on Fiverr vary greatly, the average order value is five dollars. Fiverr gigs can include writing or WordPress design. Even Twitch graphics and art can be found there. Fiverr's services cost five dollars at first, but freelancers can now offer packages for a higher price.
Fiverr, despite all the hype and the constant stream of new gigs, is well worth a look if your goal is to make an additional income. Fiverr is a mix of an ecommerce marketplace and a freelancing platform that allows employers to tap into the gig economy in the most efficient manner. Here are some tips to help get you started with Fiverr. And as always, the key to a successful gig is to be honest and transparent about your experience and skills.

A new study says a warming climate could cost the country's winter tourism industry as much as $2 billion a season as snowpack dwindles.
The report by Protect Our Winters and the Natural Resources Defense Council – dubbed "Winter Tourism in Peril" and released Thursday as Colorado endures a dry start to the ski season – says the country's $12.2 billion ski-and-snowmobile industry is waning as warmer temperatures melt snow and revenues.
The analysis – authored by a pair of doctoral students from the University of New Hampshire – concludes that rising winter temperatures since 1970 are threatening winter tourism in 38 states. The report said the difference between a good snow year and a bad snow year from 1999 to 2010 cost the industry between $810 million and $1.9 billion; 13,000 to 27,000 jobs; and 15 million skier visits.
Looking forward, the researchers estimate snow depth could decline to zero at lower elevations in the West and that the ski season in the East could shrink by as much as half in the coming decades.
The researchers said Colorado resorts and resort communities lost $154 million in revenue and 1,867 jobs in a bad snow year. Colorado ski resorts' experience, however, wasn't nearly that dismal last year, the worst season for snow in several decades. The local numbers show that Colorado's resorts have swiftly adapted to low-snow years.
The study was welcomed by some in the ski industry, though others questioned its long-term projections.
Auden Schendler, the environmental-affairs chief at Aspen Skiing Co., said the report puts financial metrics behind what everyone in the ski industry has known for years: Climate change hurts.
"This data suggests there is monetized risk and the solution should be for the ski-industry leaders and trade-group leaders to get off their (fannies) and move as if there was an existential threat to the business," Schendler said. "I'm hoping this report will drive radical change. Skiers are optimists. Here's an opportunity to do what we do, which is get in there and be active and solve problems in the world."
Melanie Mills, president of Colorado Ski Country, which represents 21 of the state's 25 ski areas, said dry years are always a challenge and that resorts are fighting to reduce their impacts on the climate.
"Action on climate change is important, and we will advocate for it," she said, noting that projecting sweeping declines in the resort industry down the road does not account for resort action. "I would think that any long-term conclusions about the economic impact of climate change would be difficult to draw with accuracy, as you're not taking into account adaptations that would be made to the resort economies."
The National Ski Areas Association issued a release pointing to the industry's decade-old policy on climate change, with resorts nationwide working to reduce impacts, educate skiers and advocate for climate legislation.
Colorado ski resorts see 12 million skier visits annually and employ 37,000 workers who earn $1.2 billion and stir $2.2 billion in economic activity.
The state did endure declines in skier visits between its snowiest and least snowy seasons in the years of the study – 11.13 million in the relatively dry 2001-02 and 12.54 million in very snowy 2007-08.
The report did not include analysis of the 2010-11 ski season – one of the snowiest in decades – and the 2011-12 season, the least snowy in several decades. The state saw a difference of more than 1 million skier visits between those seasons, yet most of those visits were in-state visitors who spend less. Dramatic declines in revenues and jobs did not happen between the decade's highest and lowest snow seasons.
Between those two seasons, revenue-based fees that ski resorts on federal land paid to the Forest Service declined less than 1 percent, from $16.29 million in 2010-11 to $16.25 million in 2011-12.
Wintertime taxable sales in Vail, Aspen, Crested Butte, Telluride, Breckenridge, Winter Park and Steamboat Springs – which account for nearly half of the state's skier visits – climbed from 2010-11 to 2011-12, reaching $1.1 billion and almost matching the high point set in 2007-08. Employment in those resort counties climbed 0.3 percent between 2010-11 and 2011-12.
"What you are seeing on the ground is not necessarily what our modeling can see," said Antonia Herzog, assistant director of the Natural Resource Defense Council's Climate Center. "The question, ultimately, is where is this all headed, and it's not headed in the right direction. My personal view is that we are just starting to see the impacts that lie ahead with the extreme weather we are seeing across the country."
Colorado is sending some mixed economic signals, said report author Matt Magnusson, pointing to flat employment growth between the two very different seasons despite an increase in spending.
"There is certainly evidence of negative economic impacts due to the poor snowfall," he said. "Colorado was not immune from its impacts. Given the heavy marketing muscle … strong season-pass sales, location appeal, and the resources of the corporations, it certainly makes sense that Colorado may have protected itself to a greater extent than other areas of the country."

You might notice that I have been relatively quiet about the 1940 census release. Nearly every aspect of accessing and indexing the 1940 U. S. Census–released yesterday, 2 April 2012–has been covered extensively.
Now that the images are available, no doubt genealogists around the United States (and probably at least a few other countries) are diving in and looking for their families. So what do you cite once you have found them?
Because images are not yet completely available for all states through every host (and the NARA host site is running particularly slow this morning), I will use the example of a family in Delaware, the only state currently (as of the time of this writing) available on both FamilySearch and Ancestry.com. For this example I am using the image on FamilySearch, but I will address citing the same record on other sites.
I am not personally researching this family, for either myself or any of my clients. I picked it at random from a family then living in the town where I now live. I did also pick this particular household because it lands on line 29, so the supplementary questions also apply.
First, here is the full citation (in Reference Note format):
1940 U. S. Census, Kent County, Delaware, population schedule, 6th Representative District, Harrington City, enumeration district (ED) 1-23, page 247 (stamped), sheet 4A, dwelling 88, G. B. Colman household; digital images, FamilySearch (http://www.familysearch.org : accessed 2 April 2012).
Citing a federal census begins with the most general element and moves toward the most specific. In the above example, we start with the record itself (the 1940 Census). The census is organized by county and state, so this is the next element. Then we have the specific schedule we are using. These elements at the beginning are those used by the National Archives in their organization of the census record, so they are key in identifying the specific record.
At the top of each census page are two fields labeled "Township or other division of county" and "Incorporated place." These divisions must also be noted within the citation. Then we add the enumeration district (ED) number.
Each "sheet" is identified, with either "A" or "B," but the "A" pages also contain a stamped page number. Both of these should be included where applicable. On the "B" pages, no stamped page number appears, so none need be included in the citation.
One difference between this 1940 census and previous enumerations back to 1850 is that–rather than including two identifying "dwelling" and "family" numbers–this enumeration only identifies households by a single "household" (or "dwelling") number. We then identify the head of household (or a specific individual within the household) that we are examining.
Note that we have gone from the most general element to the most specific–from the year down to the specific individual.
Next we must include information on the repository holding the records. We separate this section with a semicolon, to show that it is a separate clause.
We first identify that we are using digital images. The 1940 Census, to my knowledge, is not being microfilmed but is only available via the digital images on various websites.
In this case I used the images on FamilySearch, so my citation reflects this fact. We must include the author of the website, the title of the website, the URL, and the date we accessed the record. The same format would be used whether we used the images on FamilySearch, Ancestry.com, MyHeritage, Archives.com, or the National Archives and Records Administration's official 1940 Census site.
In many of these cases, the title of the website is the same as the name of the corporate entity that publishes the website. In these cases, there is no need to repeat the name. For example, we do not have to cite the Ancestry.com site as
Ancestry.com, Ancestry.com (http://www.ancestry.com […]
but we do have to cite the NARA site as
National Archives and Records Administration, 1940 Census (http://1940census.archives.gov […]
I hope that everyone is having a great time looking for their family members in 1940!

As is public education in New Zealand – by law.
But some people are unhappy with this fact. They attempt to argue that values need religious belief – that you can't be good without a god. And they work hard to create the illusion that religious instruction is required to instil values into our children. But if we are to believe today's NZ Herald story – Schools drop Bible as interest falls – the influence of such attitudes is declining.
This reports that a number of Auckland schools are dropping the "bible in schools" programme run by the Churches Education Commission. And the opt-out, or withdrawal clause, is being used by a growing number of pupils and students – which creates problems for schools of providing supervision for the opt-outs. (The schools are theoretically closed while religious instruction takes place to get around the legal secular requirements).
Some parents are also complaining because schools have not kept them informed of the programme. Sometimes the first hint they get is when their child comes home talking about sin or creationism. One parent, who complained to his school board, managed to get the opt-out permission slip changed (see below). Last year there was no hint the programme was religious – now, at least, the school includes "bible-based" in their description.
The Churches Education Commission are being somewhat deceptive in the promotion of, and description of, their religious instruction programme. They are at least taking advantage of a popular illusion that there is some sort of inevitable link between religion and human values, and that religious organisations should have some sort of privilege in the teaching of values.
But that is a misconception, recognised as such by our educational authorities. After all, our public schools' curriculum requires the teaching of values – and by law that curriculum must be secular.
And school boards who promote the illusion that the religious instruction programme (when schools by law are closed) is somehow fulfilling a curriculum requirement of teaching values are also being deceptive. It isn't, and it should not be presented that way. The Churches Education Commission curriculum is aimed at promoting belief in supernatural beings – that is their interest, and they see values as simply a tool for promoting that belief. Have a look at how their own literature describes their teaching aims. For example:
|For the children to understand that God watches over and cares for His people
|Care and compassion; Love
|For the children to understand that God made everything in the world and loves us
|Inquiry; Responsibility; Creativity
|For students to understand that God raised Jesus to life, so people could be friends with Him
|Perseverance; Excellence; Love
|For students to understand that God does not want us to be greedy
|Care and compassion; Integrity; Respect
Clearly they are simply using the human values part of the school curriculum to attach their real purpose – the promotion of supernatural beliefs in young children.

Logan Lerman
Yearly Forecast for 2023
" I got into acting to get my foot in the door for film-making."
Logan Lerman is an American actor, best known for playing the title role in the fantasy-adventure Percy Jackson films, and for his roles in the western 3:10 to Yuma, the thriller The Number 23, the comedy Meet Bill, and 2009's Gamer and My One and Only.
He was born on Sunday January 19th 1992, in Beverly Hills, California, United States.
2023 is Logan's year to finish up all unfinished business, to clean house and make room for new things. On a material level this is a good time to get rid of unnecessary weight, to give away or sell what he does not need anymore and to pay off old debts.
On a spiritual level Logan Lerman will experience a different mode altogether. His attention should turn to others and their needs, find ways to be of help and give time and energy to worthwhile causes. Lerman must lighten his burden of questions and doubts and the best way to do so is by directing his attention to another direction, away from himself and he will find becoming lighter and more in touch with his own self.
This is a time of completion, problems can be solved and over with, strained relationships relax or disappear, the sources of stress in work or business can be better understood and dealt with. Logan Lerman needs to be social and communicative, enjoy music and other arts. His creativity is higher than usual.
There can be some difficulties during 2023 due to Logan's desire to face obstacles and overcome them. Decisions have to be taken and courage and strength may be severely tested several times. This is not going to be an easy year all the time but Lerman will feel relieved and on the brink of a positive breakthrough by the end of this year.
This is the end of a nine year Epicycle and Logan Lerman will feel many times the excitement of a new and promising era when optimism is his friend, but he will also experience the fear of letting go. However, the more Logan lets go the more room there is to be filled during the next Epicycle.
Let's take a look now at Logan's monthly forecast for February 2023.
You and Logan
About Logan's Personal Year Cycle
In numerology, each year of Logan's life is part of an evolving pattern that can be described as a nine-year cycle or epicycle. These cycles begin at Logan Lerman's birth and progress, one by one, through nine steps that complete an epicycle, and then begin again.
