Thank you for your interest in applying to Pitt-Johnstown! This page will help guide you the process of applying as a Freshman, and even what you need to be doing before you're even thinking of applying. This is a huge step in anyone's life, and this page will hopefully make it as easy as possible. Generally, the timeline for this process has begun well before a high school student has even thought about donning their cap and gown, usually sometime during their junior year. Read on to find out more about the Freshmen Application Process at Pitt-Johnstown and get ready to take your first step on the pathway to the Real World.
Before Applying
Am I a Freshman Applicant?
It's always good to start at the beginning. College admission offices deal with a varied pool of applicants, so some explanation of what a 'Freshman' applicant is always a good idea. The basic definition of Freshmen applicants are students who have graduated from high school, or received their GED, and are ready to take the next step of attending college. Additionally, the Freshman applicant category also covers students who are UNDER 21 years of age and HAVE NOT attended another college or university.
What does Pitt-Johnstown like to see in a prospective student?
The Pitt-Johnstown Admissions committee likes well-rounded, both academically and otherwise, students. We look at each student individually, looking beyond the numbers, to get an overall picture of who the student truly is. First and foremost, however, will always be the student's academic performance, including all high school coursework and SAT/ACT scores. We will look at grades from Freshman to Junior year (and sometimes beyond) to gather a great assessment of each student's capabilities. On top of academics, any sort of involvement in clubs, volunteering, sports, or any other leadership roles, will be taken into account, though they are not a requirement.
To keep yourself on the correct path in high school, we've included these handy charts to illustrate what coursework all prospective Pitt-Johnstown students need to complete. Most high school students will complete these requirements without realizing it, but it's always good to double-check, especially for Engineering Technology and Nursing applicants.

I took AP classes in high school, what happens with those?
Just taking the class isn't enough to get college credit, you need to take the AP (Advanced Placement) test for whatever subject the class covered. You can score 1-5 on the AP tests, but Pitt-Johnstown will only accept a score of 3 or higher. Not only will you receive college credits, your AP score may also count toward exempting you from certain classes. Also, the higher you score, the more classes you may not have to take. The AP Guidelines page will give a you a general overview, but please contact the Registrar's Office for definitive answers.
If you have any questions regarding AP classes or tests, please contact the Registrar's Office.
When should I apply?
Pitt-Johnstown practices rolling admission, which means that decisions are made as applications arrive. The Admissions committee typically begins to make decisions on applicants beginning in September of a student's senior year. As a result, that's usually the time when you'll want to start applying, though we accept applications at any time.
I've decided that I'm interested, so how do I apply?
Any student interested in applying as a Freshman to Pitt-Johnstown must submit the following:

Do I need to meet with an Admissions Counselor?
Unless specifically requested by the Admissions committee, you do not have to meet with a member of the Admissions staff. We always encourage prospective, admitted, and basically any other type of student to set-up a campus visit, which includes a full campus tour with one of our student tour guides (S.T.A.R.S.) and an informal meeting with a member of the Admissions Staff. These meetings usually last around 30 minutes, and are the perfect time to ask any questions you have about the campus, your transcript or curriculum, and the admissions process.
If you are interested in setting up a campus visit, please contact the Admissions Office at 855-LIKEUPJ .
After You Apply
I've sent everything in, so when will I be notified of a decision?The Admissions staff at Pitt-Johnstown prides themselves on the quick turn-around time from application to decision - provided that we have received all of the required information to complete your file. You will be notified promptly if any additional documents are needed. Once all materials are received, the Admissions Committee will review your file and notify you of your decision via US mail. You are welcome to check on the status of your application at any time.
I'm admitted to Pitt-Johnstown... what's next?
First, congratulations! Being admitted to any college or university is a huge step in any student's life, so make sure you take some time and enjoy the feeling. Never lose sight of the fact that being admitted to college is an accomplishment, and that you should be proud of yourself and the work you've done. Once you've been admitted, a new journey begins, with different pathmarks on the road to starting college in the Fall. To make this easier, we've made a webpage dedicated entirely to this process, where you can find all the answers to the question of "What's Next?".
If you have any questions, please contact the Admissions Office by phone at 855-LIKEUPJ, or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com .

By Jo-Anne MacKenzie
---- — SALEM -- Patrick McDougall, a member of the town Budget Committee and Zoning Board of Adjustment, has been found guilty of obstructing government administration by 10th Circuit Court Judge Michael Sullivan.
In a decision issued Friday, Sullivan wrote, "I conclude defendant's obstreperous behavior was less motivated by financial concerns, but more an antipathy toward the EMT's and police officers who tried to get medical help for Mrs. McDougall."
The charge stems from an incident overnight June 25 and 26, when McDougall's wife Jane called 911, requesting an ambulance take her to the hospital for a severe migraine.
When EMT's arrived, Jane McDougall was sweating profusely, held an ice bag to her head and tried to shield her eyes from the light, according to testimony.
When firefighters went to the McDougall home, Patrick McDougall, 37, answered the door to the apartment and said there was no problem. He eventually allowed EMT's inside, who then witnessed Jane McDougall's condition. But her husband accused first responders of trying to get $800 from him for the ambulance, when he had no health insurance.
Meanwhile, Jane McDougall made a second 911 call and told the dispatcher her husband was arguing with emergency workers.
Police were called to help deal with Patrick McDougall, who said he had the right to refuse treatment for his wife.
He continued to argue with police and fire personnel, making disparaging comments to police and fire personnel, Sullivan wrote.
Finally, Jane McDougall signed a "refusal of medical care release" form and her husband agreed to drive her to the hospital. She was treated there and later released.
The entire event took about 40 minutes, according to the judge's decision, an event he characterized as "out of the ordinary."
McDougall later complained to fire Chief Kevin Breen about the incident, claiming he had been treated unfairly because of previous critical comments he had made about both police and fire. He also said his wife was exaggerating her medical condition and reiterated his inability to pay for an ambulance, Sullivan wrote.
But Breen tesitifed McDougall had twice previously been advised of and assisted in obtaining an abatement for earlier ambulance bills.
"Thus, the protestations of the defendant about anticipated ambulance/medical charges ring hollow," Sullivan wrote.
He found McDougall guilty as charged.
During Patrick McDougall's trial last week, defense attorney Neil Reardon said "being abrasive, being loud and being negative" is not a crime. The trial lasted about two hours.
Jane McDougall testified and said her husband "meant well."
Sentencing will follow. The charge is a Class A misdemeanor, punishable by up to a year in jail and a fine of up to $2,000.

ya ive seen guys fall through the cage door but never get hurt because of it. how is the door not locked 17 seconds into the fight? pretty stupid.
Keith Hackney went right out the door in his fight against Emmanual Yarborough at UFC III.
it happened at one of the first UFCs (i think 3, maybe?) and at least once in king of the cage. it's never happened where one (or both) of the fighters got injured, but fighters have crashed through the cage doors before.
I don't recall anyone falling out of a cage either. Ring yeah, cage no. I've seen people try and throw people out of the cage lol. But never anyone falling through the door in the middle of a fight. Not that I can remember at least. I can't wait to see this thing.
i'm confused. that must be a first. i've never heard of such a thing.

I was just experimenting with this sites sizing. Medium is perfect, so if anyone has any offers of a medium shirt i'd be happy to trade. I'd probably even sell it for 10 + shipping.

Still, the path that people in the Deschutes has chosen comes with its own price, and difficult choices may lie in the years ahead.
Aylward's 20-year plan for meeting urban and instream demands looks first to water that will spin off as development spreads across a projected 9,000 acres — some 5 percent of the basin's irrigated land. The remainder of the water, says Aylward, will come from efficiency projects, to avoid taking any more land out of production.
Efficiency, however, is expensive. It can be far cheaper to simply buy or lease a farmer's water right, take that land out of production, and return the water instream. In the Deschutes, buying an acre-foot outright runs from $330 to $550. Leasing an acre-foot for a year costs, on average, less than $4.50. In contrast, Aylward estimates that, in the future, it will take an average of at least $1,000 of canal-piping work to yield an acre-foot of water.
The emphasis on efficiency projects drove the total cost of the 20-year plan to $135 million. Getting the money needed to make the plan work will be a challenge. Johnson and Aylward have proposed a four-way split between the federal government, the state, nonprofit and quasi-governmental interests including the conservancy and the Bonneville Power Administration, and the irrigation districts.
"I think everybody has to have skin in the game," says Johnson. But he adds that the war in Iraq and Hurricane Katrina have substantially eaten into available federal funding. "The 2007 budget, which Congress is trying to pass right now, is tight. The thinking is that the '08 budget is worse."
That raises the question of whether there is a more cost-effective way to meet the challenge. Nearly three-quarters of the plan's $135 million price tag is for efficiency improvements — but they will yield only about half the total water needed. "You could do the same thing with $50 million less," says Aylward, "if you just took a small percentage (more) land out of production."
Yet taking a mixed approach — call it the middle path — makes it possible to shift water to new uses without completely raiding farms for their water. That's an issue that Marc Thalacker has grappled with on a small scale in the Three Sisters Irrigation District.
"Yeah, we can say we're just gonna cater to growth and dry up farmland. But do you want to dry it all up?" he says. Efficiency projects like pipelines may be more expensive than fallowing land and transferring the water instream. But, Thalacker says, "The pipeline is creating sustainable ag" — that is, allowing farming to continue in the face of urban growth — "so you're still protecting ag, and at the same time creating flows for fish."
And by allowing irrigation districts to let go of their water at a comfortable pace, the process also gives them some control over a potentially scary future. "Buying water and retiring farm land in an ag community risks hollowing out the infrastructure for that community," says Malloch, the Seattle attorney. "Are enough farms left to keep the ditches running and the schools, equipment dealers and farm supply companies in business? Dry up enough land and eventually the economics no longer work for that community."
Because the economics of farming are marginal, "That will happen in a lot of places whether the water gets bought or not," Malloch adds. "But I think the conservancy is working with people to manage that process and keep a core agricultural community going."
The effort is not without critics. One longtime member of the Central Oregon Irrigation District, who recently stepped down, says that the river restoration effort has been perpetrated by "highly educated, very intelligent people that have never tried to irrigate a garden." Other farmers have likened the steelhead reintroduction to the federal government's reintroduction of wolves into Idaho: Once the fish are back, they will likely be protected under the Endangered Species Act and farmers will suddenly be liable for harm to them.
And while few people inside the river-restoration effort are willing to say so out loud, the entire project is something of a calculated gamble. Even if the instream flow targets can be met, they may not be enough to successfully re-establish steelhead runs in the basin. The federal government could come calling for more water.
Still, if the Klamath provides a cautionary example of what happens when the ratchet is tightened down too far, the Deschutes may be the counterexample: An effort to slowly unwind the water-development ratchet before it breaks and mauls someone. "We can all see the problem, and if we work together, nobody gets anything taken away from them," says Bob Main, the former water master. "They may give something up, but they will get something in return."
That something might only be peace of mind, but even that may be worth the price. During his tenure at the state water resources department, Main oversaw not only the Deschutes but the Klamath, too. There, Main witnessed firsthand the carnage as farmers, Indians and environmentalists threatened each other with the prospect that, as he puts it, they would "legally undo everything you hold dear."
"Here," he says, "nobody feels attacked and destroyed by somebody with a bigger hammer. This is an effort that can go on for another 50 years."
Main is quick to concede that unwinding the ratchet is a perilous process, one that takes patience — and trust — on everyone's part. But people here are committed to playing by the rules they've created for themselves. In the cost-benefit analyses constantly running through Steve Johnson and Marc Thalacker's heads, money spent on lawsuits could be put to far more productive use piping canals.
Each additional cubic-foot per second put in Whychus Creek or the Deschutes is water that will never touch a farmer's fields. But it's also insurance that the federal government won't step in with its own set of rules, as it did in the Klamath.
Thalacker concedes that he sometimes loses sleep worrying about whether, when the fish return in 2011, there won't be enough water to sustain them. "But as we have each success, it moves us up to the next project," he says. "And let's say in 2011, we've got a good steady flow of 20 second-feet in the creek. If someone says, 'Well, you know, we really need 25,' is an environmental group going to come sue us over that? I don't believe so. I think they'll come to us and say, 'How do we get that next five second-feet?' "
If the Deschutes has proved anything so far, it's that incremental efforts — second-foot after second-foot after second-foot — add up. In our determination to turn the West into something it was never meant to be, we unraveled an intricate world. Re-creating that world begins with fussing and obsessing over the tiniest details of every single stretch of screwed-up stream.
Similar efforts are already under way on neighboring Columbia River tributaries like the Umatilla, Walla Walla, John Day and Yakima rivers. And somewhere far beyond these incremental efforts lies a much bigger possibility: The chance to break out of the cycle of water shortages and water wars, and step into a world where steelhead and salmon can sustain themselves.
That day is a long way off. But more than a century's worth of bad news cannot obscure this fact: Nowhere is it written that irrigated agriculture, cities, and fresh, wild-caught steelhead sandwiches are fundamentally irreconcilable phenomena.

Pilgrim's Pride returns to profitability
The profit amounted to 18 cents per diluted share vs. a loss of $119.9 million, or 54 cents per share, in the same quarter last year, the company said Friday.
Pilgrim's, headquartered in Greeley, posted similar sales of about $1.9 billion during the same quarter last year.
"We are encouraged to see the benefits of our strategy and the improvement in our operations over the past year reflected in the best results we have had in the first calendar quarter since 2005," CEO Bill Lovette said in an earnings statement.
Pilgrim's also posted cash flow of $29.4 million for the first quarter.
The company's profitable first quarter follows a difficult 2011 fiscal year where the company posted losses of $497 million. The company blamed higher costs and volatility in grain prices.
Pilgrim's, as well as the industry, must continue a shift toward valuing the whole bird and not relying on high breast-meat prices to carry margins, the company said in its earnings statement.
Volatility in the commodity markets is now the norm and must be considered, along with cost containment, as a standard part of production planning, the company added.
"We've accomplished a lot over the past year and are clearly headed in the direction we want to be," Lovette said. "This quarter confirms our belief: The industry can be profitable even at varying grain price points given the right focus on discipline."
Pilgrim's employs about 38,500 people and operates chicken-processing plants and prepared-foods facilities in 12 states, Puerto Rico and Mexico.

Redevelopment projects planned for Port Washington
A pair of redevelopment projects proposed for downtown Port Washington are to be reviewed by the city's Plan Commission on Thursday.
In the 100 block of N. Franklin St., Renew Port Holdings LLC, led by Gertjan van den Broek, is proposing a mixed-use project with first floor commercial space and 18 apartments on the upper three floors.
It will be a combination of new construction and renovated space, said Randy Tetzlaff, city planning and development director.
Also, Franklin Street Holdings LLC, led by Dan Ewig, is renovating the Boerner Mercantile Building, 211 N. Franklin St., into first floor retail space and two floors of offices.
That 21,000-square-foot development should be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2013, Ewig said. He plans to make tenant announcements during the first quarter.

BY BRIAN McGILLIVARY
TRAVERSE CITY — Traverse City Light & Power may provide a jolt worth $232,000 to its hotel and motel customers to help them reduce their electric bills.
The board for the city-owned utility reviewed a proposal Tuesday to cut summer's peak electrical consumption by reducing the use of air conditioning in hotel rooms. The proposal from Franklin Energy Services LLC, the utility's energy savings consultant, would retrofit the thermostats for about 725 hotel rooms plus provide energy efficient light bulbs.
"It will help our customers save money and, over time, help the utility save the cost of purchasing additional capacity," said Jim Cooper, TCL&P's energy and communications manager.
The typical hotel guest fires up the air conditioning when they enter a room and runs it on high all day long, said Jim Mooney, the Michigan manager for Wisconsin-based Franklin Energy. Franklin Energy proposes to install heat and motion sensors in guest rooms that would automatically raise the thermostat in the summer when the room is empty and drop the temperature in the winter.
Mooney said Franklin Energy would target smaller, independent hotels where heating and air conditioning can account for up to 80 percent of their energy needs. Most of the larger chains and newer hotels have already incorporated similar systems.
The board debated whether to charge a $50 per room co-pay after doing the first 10 rooms of a hotel for free. The installed cost of the thermostat units is $330.
The co-pays reduce the participation rate and make the project more complex, Mooney said.
Board chairman Pat McGuire said Tuesday TCL&P should drop the co-pay if they want to reach their energy savings goals, but reversed course on Wednesday.
"If hotel-motel owners aren't inclined to do it on their own, you have to start wondering how valuable it is," McGuire said.
The program should save hotels about $100 a year in energy costs per room, Cooper said.
The industry specific program would be part of TCL&P's $784,000 budget to help commercial and residential customers reduce electrical usage, Cooper said.
State law requires TCL&P to reduce annual energy consumption by 2.5 million kilowatt hours and recommends it spend 2 percent of annual revenue, $384,000, to meet the goal. The TCL&P board boosted funding by $400,000 and has already hit 3.5 million kilowatt hours. The hotel program is expected to save an additional 1 million kilowatt hours.
The board will vote on a final proposal from Franklin Energy at its next meeting.

Over the course of the last weeks the Supreme Court of Assholedom has considered several pressing cases, and the deliberations have been fierce. Responding among other things to popular demand that the Court consider routine behaviors as well as the characters of major public figures, we delved into a few routine matters intended to provide guidance to the difficult question of how all of us can avoid being assholes in our daily lives. But as Chief Justice of the Court I was surprised – one might almost say outraged – by the decision of my fellow Justices to unanimously shoot down the plaintiff's argument in one such routine case, one I myself had proposed. More on that in a moment.
As an aside, I've decided that Supreme Court decisions will henceforth be published on Fridays. There may be weeks when there are no cases, but when there are cases, the results will be published here on Fridays. We won't always have multiple cases to publish, either; our schedule will remain irregular and the bureaucratic logic of our organization must remain mysterious, among other things to keep terrorists and assassins from too keenly knowing our habits.
Without further ado, the results of this weeks cases:
Before any of our more intellectual readers here run away screaming for fear that this case brought against the Play-Doh-brained owner of the Washington Redskins is about sports, please hear us out, for this is not a sports case. Daniel Snyder drew the Supreme Court's attention thanks to his decision to file a $2 million defamation lawsuit against the Washington alt-weekly City Paper and its reporter Dave McKenna, after McKenna wrote a hilarious and viciously accurate piece called "The Cranky Redskins Fan's Guide to Daniel Snyder."
The issue here, as presented by Justice Drew Magary, is simple. What Daniel Snyder seemed to show in this case is that if you piss off a rich asshole, he can fight back by bankrupting you with a frivolous lawsuit, where he'll win even if he loses, no matter how wrong he is. Thus the court was asked to consider the following question: Is any rich person who seeks revenge through frivolous-litigation-by-attrition automatically an asshole?
Here's some background on this lawsuit. In it, Snyder alleged that McKenna published four material "misrepresentations" in his article. But all of these alleged "misrepresentations" seemed merely to be funny rhetorical takes on absolutely true facts.
An example: Snyder at one point apparently used his influence to get a National Park official to cut down 130 trees on a hillside between Snyder's sweeping Potomac estate and the C&O canal. McKenna's wry take on this was that Snyder "made a great view of the Potomac River for himself by going all Agent Orange on federally protected lands." To which Snyder, in his lawsuit, responded by contending that McKenna had written "that Mr. Snyder caused Agent Orange to be used to destroy trees."
The example I liked even better was this: Synder's lawsuit complained that one of the misrepresentations in McKenna's piece was that "Mr. Snyder bragged that his wealth came from diabetes and cancer victims." But this appeared to be exactly what Snyder did. In a PBS program called CEO Exchange Snyder was shown with fellow sports owner Mark Cuban in a Q&A with Jeff Greenfield at Northwestern University in 2000. In that Q&A he talked about how at Snyder Communications, his marketing company, they huddled up to decide which demographics to target for marketing campaigns.
"We'd make jokes, each niche would be a $5 million niche, and we'd go after each one," Snyder says in the program. Then, when asked for examples, he says this:
"We were looking at trend lines…We saw that the aging baby boomer demographics were coming on strong. That meant there's going to be a lot more diabetic patients, a lot more cancer patients, etc. How do we capture those market segments?"
If anything, it seems to me that McKenna understated his rhetoric about Snyder here: While he only wrote that Snyder bragged about scoring big on cancer patients and diabetics, he could have written that Snyder joked about it, which is probably even worse.
That particular example highlights why Snyder is such a good choice of defendant for this Court. The Redskins owner is one of the prototypical assholes of modern American capitalism – a completely bloodless, money-grubbing narcissist who will sink to any depths in search of a buck (he took expired peanuts bought off a defunct airline and sold them to fans at Redskins games; he also sold beer in the men's bathrooms at the Redskins' stadium), and constantly pushes regulatory and ethical boundaries to gouge customers (the company he owned before the Redskins was fined millions for switching phone customers' service plans without authorization, a practice called "Slamming"). He also grossly insulted all real victims of anti-Semitism when he accused McKenna and the City Paper of targeting him for his Jewishness, claiming that its cover depiction of Snyder with horns growing out of his head was an anti-Semitic caricature. As numerous writers have pointed out, the notion of a guy who owns a team called the Redskins crying foul about ethnic slurs is beyond preposterous; from this Justice's point of view the reflexive accusation of racism or anti-Semitism whenever one suffers criticism is also often an indication of assholeness, although the Court was no asked to consider that issue in this case.
I ruled Snyder an asshole and gave him 4,999 points, which I calculated as the highest score a non-violent asshole who is not George Will can receive. If in the future counsel can demonstrate to me that Snyder's callous business practices somehow resulted in deaths and/or injury, Court will be moved to reconsider its judgment.
As to the question of whether or not a rich person who takes revenge by filing frivolous litigation with the intent to bankrupt his or her critics, I vote absolutely yes. This is an increasingly common practice and anyone who indulges in this activity is, to me, forever an asshole. This ruling would cover for instance Chabourne Park attorney John Squires, who a few years ago filed a cease and desist letter on behalf of Goldman Sachs against a blogger named Mike Morgan. Morgan had been blogging on a little-known site called GoldmanSachs666. Another characteristic of such lawsuits is that they almost always involve very small publications or websites without the legal means to right back effectively; since the actual damage that alt-weeklies and obscure websites can do to one's reputation is negligible, one has to assume that the major motive behind such suits is prophylactic, i.e. scaring future critics at such outlets into thinking twice about risking their meager personal fortunes to say a word or two about the Dan Snyders and Lloyd Blankfeins of the world.
Justice Drew Magary first brought Synder to the Court's attention and, voting to convict, summed up the situation thusly: "The reason the McKenna case is important is because it demonstrates that, if you piss off a rich asshole, he can use a friviolous lawsuit to bankrupt you. You don't have a choice. You have to hire lawyers to defend yourself again and again until your resources have been exhausted. You can be dragged into the legal system against your will by some fuckhead like Snyder and even if he loses, you're still ruined for life."
Court ruled unanimously that Daniel Snyder is indeed an asshole. Vote is 8-0 (Schmid, Sirota, Kourkounis, Taibbi, Magary, Whitmer, Rees, Kreider). Justice Jenny Boylan recused herself on the grounds that she did not know who Daniel Snyder is.
Many Justices took pains to point out that Snyder's assholedom has little or nothing to do with the fact of his having been one of the most incompetent owners in the history of modern professional sports, and I think many Justices showed great benevolence in not bringing up names like Albert Haynesworth, Donovan McNabb, and Vinny Cerrato. In fact, many Justices were anxious to point out that they did not even consider his sports history in their decision.
Some opinions:
Justice Timothy Kreider said Snyder is an asshole, but "primarily because of this lawsuit. His assholery in the field of sports is a more frivolous matter."
Justice Jessica Kourkounis gave Synder 5000 points and said that "doing business with Tom Cruise is grounds for automatic assholedom in my book."
Justice Adam Whitmer gave Synder 6800 points and chimed in on behalf of Redskins fans. "Someone who repeatedly shits on a fan base this loyal to their team and city is an asshole," he wrote. "But the amount of 'Scratch my Back, I'll scratch yours' that Dan Snyder has displayed just shows that he just doesn't care about the game, only the money that comes with the game. People like that don't deserve to own teams."
Justice Mara Schmid was careful to point out other examples of this behavior, including the Pillsbury company suing a Salt Lake City bakery for use of a "My Dough Girl" campaign and the Monster Cable company for going after basically everyone who's ever used the word "Monster," including the TV show "Monster Garage" and the Boston Red Sox for their "Monster Seats" section above the Green Monster at Fenway.
Justice David Sirota was succinct in his summation: "As an NFL owner, he's almost automatically an asshole. And on top of that, he's an asshole among assholes."
Justice Kreider summed things up for us. "Somewhere in an incredible string of invective unleashed against a foppish servant in King Lear, The Earl of Kent uses the epithet, 'action-taking,' meaning 'litigious,'" he wrote. "Suing someone was then considered despicably craven and effete -- what you were supposed to do, of course, if you were any kind of man, was kill them with your fucking sword…It's still a pretty contemptible activity to involve oneself in litigation voluntarily unless it's to redress some serious injustice or injury. This kind of behavior is just an abuse of litigation -- the goal is not proving that you're in the right but a victory through attrition due to an overwhelming advantage in resources. It's also a defining asshole tactic, like a big drunk picking a fight with the littlest guy in the bar.
Interestingly, Synder's aggregate asshole score was right around where I had it – the average of the seven justices who sent in scores was 4,697. This means, roughly, that it would take two Daniel Snyders to equal one Hosni Mubarak.
The court considered a number of other cases in the last week, and there were extended deliberations with some and little to no deliberations at all in others. The first:

End of the road for long-time South Boston dealership
- Last Updated on 07:52 AM 04/17/13
- BY Doug Ford
Another family business with generations of service to South Boston and Southern Virginia is shutting down, with Wyatt Chevrolet closing its doors May 1.
Owner Jackie Caldwell confirmed the closing Monday morning, citing the costs of required façade improvements he would need to make to his business as well as the struggling economy in Southern Virginia and a decline in sales of GM products.
"We will close our affiliation with GM and Chevrolet May 1," Caldwell said Monday.
"I've been in this business about 40 years, and I figured it was about time to retire," the veteran businessman added.
The Chevrolet dealership has been part of the community since 1939, when you could buy a new Chevy for $500.
That was the year when E.J. Wyatt, formerly of Danville, came to South Boston and established the dealership that operated without interruption for the past 74 years.
There are 13 employees at Wyatt Chevrolet, the majority of them long-time employees with at least 10-15 years of service, Caldwell noted.
Parts Manager Clyde Holt has been with Wyatt Chevrolet over 40 years, Dale Compton 27 years, Wayne Roller 20 years and Ray Perkins, a technician, 25 years.
Another employee, Jane Womack, has been with Wyatt for about 12 years.
"A family business is something special," Caldwell explained.
"People work with you, not for you. A family business can teach you how important it is to be good to your customers."
In a world dominated by big box retailers, smaller, family-owned businesses are struggling to keep pace, Caldwell added.
It's a sad reality, the demise of the family-owned and family-run business across the country, he explained.
"The prices of these vehicles are getting so extreme, and all your margins have been cut to the bone," said Caldwell.
"It's extremely hard to make a living," said Caldwell, who added retail in general has become a young man's and young lady's business.
Wyatt's cars and trucks were first sold inside the Big Four Warehouse on Wilborn Avenue near its intersection with Main Street.
Just over a year after Wyatt took over the General Motors franchise a fire on April 1, 1941, leveled the warehouse claiming several businesses including the dealership and more than a dozen vehicles.
Wyatt leased space on lower Main Street until 1950 when he managed to purchase land on the corner of Wilborn and Leigh streets where multiple GM franchises have offered customers not just Chevys, but Oldsmobiles, Buicks and Pontiacs.
E.J. Wyatt, Bill Wyatt, Jackie Caldwell's late father, Jack C. Caldwell and Ed Stembridge have carried the GM mantle over the years, with Jackie Caldwell returning to South Boston in 1974 to join the family business after completing Virginia Tech's school of marketing.
Jackie Caldwell and his uncle operated the business until 1987 when Bill Wyatt retired, and he purchased the remaining stock in the dealership to become its sole owner.
"I had been here for 40 years and the dealer for 25 years, since 1987," said Caldwell.
"The idea of retirement sounded good, so I thought I'd try it for awhile."
For those who currently have their vehicles serviced at Wyatt Chevrolet, Caldwell suggests they take their vehicles to Moore's Chevrolet in Clarksville.
"They're a smaller dealer like us, and they treat you as an individual and not a number," he said.
One of the hardest parts of closing is saying goodbye to the employees and customers he's worked with through the years, added Caldwell.
"I've enjoyed being here and working with people whom we've treated with the utmost respect, the same way I would want them to treat me," he said.
"Over the years, I've had so many employees who have worked with me and stuck with me, and also my family, three generations of wives, daughters and sons who also have supported everyone here."
"That's the way we've always done business, and it's a shame that type of business is going away."
"I want to thank everyone for being so loyal and doing their business in town."
"It's been a privilege to work here and help my customers all these years and make so many friends," said Compton, who came to Wyatt Chevrolet in 1986.
"You're not just a customer, you're a friend, and you look after your customers.
"I'll miss that very much, and one thing I've always strived to do is what my father told me, always treat people like you want to be treated."

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings fans the latest news and inside information on the Brewers
Jim Henderson still taking nothing for granted
Phoenix -- Jim Henderson was one of the real feel-good stories for the Milwaukee Brewers last season.
Called up to the major leagues in late July after toiling for 10 seasons in the minors, he not only helped solidify a bullpen that had been a train wreck to that point but also got himself firmly into the Brewers' plans for 2013 as well.
Henderson wound up pitching in 36 games down the stretch as Milwaukee got back into contention for the second NL wild-card spot, finishing with 1-3 record, 3.52 earned-run average and a WHIP of 1.25.
He also struck out 45 in 30 2/3 innings and held opposing hitters to a .230 average in a few different roles. Eventually he settled in as the team's setup man, throwing 15 of his innings in the eighth, while also making seven appearances in the ninth, converting three of seven save opportunities.
This past off-season, the big right-hander took advantage of the NHL lockout by lining up training sessions with the Calgary Flames' strength and conditioning coach.
"I never had the chance to do that before," Henderson said of hiring a trainer. "I knew their athletic trainer through a Team Canada trainer, so I emailed him and said, 'What are you guys doing?' He said, 'We're bored.' I said, 'What's your strength guy doing?' He said, 'Oh, he's bored too.'
"So I said, 'Let's get to work.' So I went in to the Saddledome every day and lifted, just me and the strength guy right there at the arena. It was pretty sweet to get a guy of his caliber to work me out. Even if I wanted to get worked on over on the trainer's table, it was all there for me.
"It was pretty awesome."
Working with hockey personnel (he did so with the Brewers' approval) was an eye-opening experience for the Calgary native.
"After the first workout I was like, 'You kicked my (expletive). I'm not a hockey player. I don't have to be conditioned for 30 minutes of being physical,' " he said with a laugh. "But it was good. It got me in shape conditioning-wise -- just the lifts."
As far as pitching, Henderson has been working on throwing a changeup once again. It was a pitch he threw before he was a closer in the minors, but once he was shifted to the ninth in Nashville, he stuck with his two money pitches -- the fastball and slider.
He said he didn't throw his changeup once when he was called up to the Brewers, but is going to change that in spring training.
"Ron (Roenicke) wanted me to continue working on my changeup -- I didn't throw any while I was up (with the Brewers) last year," he said. "I threw it in the minors last year, but once I got the closer's role in Nashville I stuck with my two best pitches.
"I just kept on working on it (in the off-season) and I'll continue to work on it this spring and hopefully add it to the repertoire. I know we have a couple of lefties in the pen now, but if I can get go out there and get some lefties out, too, that would be helpful.
"Being able to throw more than one inning will help my chances of making the team."
No, Henderson isn't considering himself a lock for the Brewers' bullpen yet, as funny as that might seem.
That's 10 years of minor leagues talking, even if Roenicke is already on record as saying the 30-year-old is "a guy that I would say I'm counting on to do the job."
Henderson, at this point, appears to be one of the favorites to win the setup role, or at the very least share it with someone like left-hander Michael Gonzalez.
"Right now, I'm just trying to make the team," he said. "This is all new to me. This is my first big-league camp. I've never had the chance to be in a big-league camp, even at my age, and get the instruction here, so just to be here from Day 1, I'm just trying to soak it all in.
"Last year I got thrown into the fire right away, without this kind of instruction. Last year started off a little rough. They sent me to (Class AA) Huntsville for one day, while I was driving to Huntsville they told me to go to Nashville. A couple injuries, a couple breaks and I was on a roll."

Still cant believe another MLB team never gave Henderson a chance at the ML level considering his fastball and tenacity. Great to see a player make it that has this much drive to excel.
Jim have the time of your life it sounds like all your hard work and good luck are happening at the right time! Soak baby soak!

A man is dead after a late night car crash in Laurel County.
The crash happened around 10 Thursday night on U.S. 25 near Fairston Road, three miles south of London.
The county sheriff says a car driven by 33-year old Douglas Peek went off the right shoulder of the road and slid about 300 feet through a yard and hit a tree.
Peek was pronounced dead at the scene. Officials say he was not wearing a seatbelt.
No one else was hurt.

LAWRENCEVILLE - Two Gwinnett County elementary schools have been honored for their commitment to comprehensive school counseling programs.During its annual conference, the American School Counselor Association gave the Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) Designation to 62 schools, including Berkeley Lake Elementary and Peachtree Elementary, according to Gwinnett County Public Schools. The RAMP Designation recognizes schools committed to delivering a comprehensive, data-driven school counseling program, a news release states. A panel of school counseling professionals selected the schools for the honor. The designation is valid for three years. ASCA's model, which launched five years ago, has helped school counselors use data to identify the needs of students and to more effectively intervene in key areas, the news release states. "The model clearly identifies not just the work that counselors do, but how students are different because of the work that counselors do," said Dianne Thompson, the school district's director of advisement and counseling. "It shows that counselors have an impact upon student achievement." Thompson said she is thrilled the two schools won the award. "Gwinnett counselors have long been known as leaders within the state and nation, and this is just another example of the exemplary work our counselors do on a daily basis," she said. In related news, three county educators are up for state recognition this summer after recently earning regional honors from the Georgia School Counselors Association. Karen Griffith of Berkeley Lake Elementary was named the 2007-08 Georgia Region 2 Elementary School Counselor of the Year, Helen Clark of Dacula High was named the 2007-08 Georgia Region 2 Secondary Counselor of the Year, and Grayson High principal Keith Chaney was named the 2007-08 Georgia Region 2 Counseling Advocate of the Year. Before being named the top winners in Region 2, these three professionals were among four recognized by the county school district as local winners, a news release stated.

Title: Community of Color CBO Capacity Building Project
Project Period: September 1, 2005 - August 31, 2008
Project Amount Funded (FY 2005): 271,665
Project Director: Michelle Long
The Community of Color CBO Capacity Building Project provides broad-based and individualized technical assistance to at least 20 minority-based AIDS-serving organizations to build effective, sustainable organizational competency and strengthen their abilities to successfully compete for federal, other public and private funds. The targeted area is the San Francisco Eligible Metropolitan Area , which includes Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo Counties. Communities served by the participating organizations include African Americans, Asians and Pacific Islanders, Latinos, and Native Americans.
Six major capacity and skills-building approaches and activities guide the project. 1) A minority agency needs assessment is conducted by each agency to identify key organizational capacity, skills, and organizational development needs. 2) Quarterly, half-day skills-building training programs on identified key issues are provided to approximately 40-50 staff and administrators of local CBOs. Topics include areas such as fund development, executive board development, financial and accounting systems, and client outreach. 3) At least one follow-up module is provided a month after the conclusion of each training, in order to reinforce messages and address issues and barriers. Follow up meetings also aid the project in identifying special technical assistance needs. 4) An average of 20-30 hours of one-on-one technical assistance and support are provided to approximately five organizations with identified needs each quarter, guided by a technical assistance plan. 5) Meetings are convened for executive directors monthly which provide a forum for peer mentoring, networking, and skills building. It is expected that this forum will lead to the creation of a new information association or that the participants will continue these meetings beyond the project period. 6) By the end of the project, a nationally replicable capacity-building manual for minority-serving AIDS serving organizations will be developed, based on the curricula, materials, and feedback from quarterly skills-building training programs and their follow-up support meetings.

John Hall, Contributor
I write about entrepreneurs, thought leadership and content marketing.
Anybody with an email address and an Internet connection can become a consultant these days – and many posers frequently attempt to. These people will make you do all the work yourself and then charge you for the pleasure!
It's vital, however, that prospective clients are able to cut through the crap and find consulting partners who can truly help them prosper. Here are ten who use tactics to make their expertise stand out in the crowd:
1. Matt Steffen, President of Imprinsic Marketing Group
Matt doesn't waste time telling a client what he wants to hear when it comes to good marketing. He sometimes has to tell clients that "their ideas are mostly crap, and if they want more business, then they'd better start listening. After all, you don't tell a chef how to make chicken parmesan; you tell him to make something you will enjoy."
2. Drew Marshall, CEO at Primed Associates LLC
Drew has been able to meet client goals and deliver desired results ahead of time. Although the client expects to be billed, Drew refuses to bill them for work that didn't need to be performed. Drew's clients are "dumbfounded and delighted that a consultant would shorten an engagement."
3. Brian Moran, Brian Moran & Associates
Brian recently left his role as Executive Director of Sales Development at The Wall Street Journal to launch a consulting firm to help entrepreneurs run better businesses. He won't stop working on a project until the client is happy with the results. Brian said, "Just because the contract ends doesn't mean you should stop providing value for the client."
4. Ali Maadelat, President of The Lorenz Marketing Group
Ali bases everything he does on helping the client's bottom line. His goal is that if his clients ask him, he can show how every dollar that they have spent leads to profits. At the end of the day, he says, "business is business" and he focuses on connecting the dots between his strategies and the client's success.
5. Rahim Fazal, Co-Founder of Involver (Recently Acquired by Oracle)
Rahim is big on being completely real with the people that he advises by encouraging them to show their vulnerability. "I have been in the trenches just like they are in and to address the real problems an entrepreneur needs to be vulnerable with their advisor." He promotes throwing pride to the side and allowing a consultant to see the real barriers blocking their success.
6. Dush Ramachandran, The Net Momentum
Dush previously worked as a VP at ClickBank. Rather than charging clients his usual fixed fee, he'll often negotiate a lower fixed rate. He'll then take a percentage of their revenues from the new product or business he's helping them launch. As Dush puts it, "This allows the client to defer fixed costs, and gives me an incentive to help the client succeed in his new venture."
7. John Brubaker, Coach Bru
John is a big advocate of value-based pricing, rather than time-based billing. In time-based billing, the client is best served with quick resolution to a problem, while the consultant is best compensated by a lengthy engagement. With value-based pricing, the consultant works only until reaching mutually agreed-upon results.
I'm excited to be part of the list, alongside all of these other great folks. Glad to see that being able to dig deep and truly understand how to deliver core value to clients is a key priority across the board. Cheers!
People like this should be running America. That's the problem with America's electoral system. The best and brightest are too smart to be part of such a corrupt system which requires you to sell your soul to play.
Maybe candidates should be drafted — like jurors — rather than self selected.
Great article it is vital when consulting to genuinely care about your client's success unfortunately this doesn't happen nearly enough with all the noise and pretenders.

---- — The Gloucester and Manchester Essex football teams went out winners on Thanksgiving Day, picking up well earned wins over its respective rivals.
The Fishermen topped Danvers 28-19 to move to 4-7 on the season, finishing up with three straight wins. Gloucester was led by 165 yards rushing from John Curcuru, a gutsy performance from quarterback Santo Parisi playing through an injury, and three clutch fourth down stops on defense to preserve the win.
Gloucester held on after taking a 22-0 lead into the half, Parisi was named the game's MVP.
The win was Gloucester's eighth straight win over Danvers on Thanksgiving Day, they also hold a 30-15 lead in the all time series on turkey day.
Manchester Essex cruised to a 27-12 win over rival Georgetown on the back of senior captain Cory Burnham, who had 114 yards and two touchdowns on the ground to go along with 89 yards and a score through the air.
Manchester Essex finishes up the season at 3-8.

Maximum placement versatility, maximum surround sound
Matching speaker performance to the unique acoustic properties of your listening area is essential for achieving the ideal home audio experience. Because your home listening area is unique from the design of the walls to the arrangement of the furniture Polk has designed the Polk Audio RTiA Series F/Xi A4 surround speakers with dual pole-pattern performance, letting you customize speaker performance to your room's acoustics. If you need to place your speakers in-line on either side of your listening area, choose dipole mode. In a dipole speaker configuration, the two speakers are out-of-phase with one another, meaning that while the drivers on one side of the listening area are pushing air, the opposite drivers are pulling air. When properly setup, this configuration provides an open, enveloping rear-effects soundstage. If, on the other hand, you need to place your F/Xi A4 speakers toward the rear of your listening area, a bipolar configuration uses in-phase speaker drive to create greater sound output, a near-360° soundfield, and improved localization for use with digital discrete systems such as Dolby Digital.
Audio with Dynamic Balance®
A variety of factors play into the audio performance you get from your loudspeakers, including cabinet design, polarization, speaker location, room acoustics, crossover, and speaker-cable quality. At the heart of the matter, however, is a speaker's drivers. The F/Xi A4 uses a three-driver combo two tweeters and a midrange driver for accurate, low-distortion delivery of all your favorite songs and soundtracks. First, the F/Xi A4's 5.25" midrange driver features Dynamic Balance®. This technology uses laser imaging to create the right combinations of materials, driver geometry, and construction techniques to produce flat frequency response, sharp detail, transparency, and dynamic wide-range audio reproduction. Second, the F/Xi A4's two 1.0" tweeters feature a silk dome construction to deliver clear, detailed high-frequency audio.
A cabinet design with audio performance in mind
What's on the outside of any given loudspeaker is just as important as what's on the inside when it comes to a speaker's sound-reproduction performance. The F/Xi A4 surround speakers' cabinets sport three design features that enhance their audio performance. First, the triangular cabinet design aims the midrange driver and tweeters in different directions, producing a more realistically diffuse sound-wave front and wide, lifelike imaging of surround-sound effects. Second, acoustically inert 0.75" MDF cabinet material provides extra bracing that dramatically reduces vibrations, and hence, distortion of the sound produced by the drivers. Third, a vented-enclosure design takes advantage of the movement of air behind a driver to improve speaker efficiency, while allowing for a smaller, less intrusive cabinet size.
Down with diffraction
It's now time to talk to you about a special cause known as anti-diffraction. We here at Vann's are really concerned about distortion. And no not distortion in the media, but distortion of your media. You know, your home-theater audio experience? Diffraction is a type of distortion that occurs when sound reflects off an object such as a grille frame. The re-radiated sounds smear the original sound, much like ghost images on a TV smear the picture. Except instead of a ghost image, you get boxy-sounding audio. The F/Xi A4 features anti-diffraction "Floating Grilles" that lift the grilles literally off the baffle area, minimizing grille-edge reflections for clearer sound and more open imaging.
Secure, versatile connections
The gold-plated five-way binding posts featured on the Polk Audio FXiA4 are designed with wide holes for large-gauge bare-wire connections. The Polk FXi Series' binding-post construction offers the most secure audio-cable connection, and is the most versatile wiring application available.
The finishing touches
Go one step further in your quest to reach the pinnacle of home audio. A high-performance outdoor speaker like your new Polk FXiA4 can only help your home audio system reach its full potential if it is receiving a quality, high-integrity audio signal. Audio cables chosen specifically for the needs of your system deliver the ability to maximize your Polk FXiA4's potential. View the accessories list attached to the Polk FXiA4 at Vanns.com or call a Vann's customer service representative at the 800 number at the top of this page for assistance in selecting the right set of cables.

These speakers do everything that my husband and I hoped that they would. They have excellent sound and clarity, and can handle any power that you throw at them. When I say that they handle power, my husband has a saying that if it is too loud, you are too old, and we are definitely not too old. The speakers may be small, but the sound definitely is not.

My research at CHF examines how the question of the chemical conditions for life was integrated into scientific authorship of the natural history of the world. My recently completed dissertation, Towards a Final Story: Time, Myth and the Origins of the Universe, examined the emergence, composition, distribution, and form of "the scientific epic," the contemporary universal history relating the origins of humanity and life to the origins of the material world. A critical part of this history is dependent on the chemistry of life, with experimental work initiated in the early 1950s, as chemists sought to demonstrate how in the environment of early Earth, life could be sparked through material, naturalistic processes alone.
The chemical conditions for the emergence of life remain one of the guiding motivations for contemporary "origins"-based research, informing, for example, the question of biosignatures on other planets as signs and preconditions of life. How did experiments simulating early Earth operationalize their definitions of the chemistry of life? How much was the ambition to relate a complete history of the world and life enabled and structured by the confidence that the first sparks of life could be naturalized through considerations of the appropriate chemistries? How much is this related to the question of the possibility of life elsewhere and structured by the possibility of alternative chemistries of life? I hope to examine these questions as well as how they inform the narration of the genealogy of life on Earth.

It could be at least a week before all of the 1600 block of Walnut is back open to traffic.
There's a gaping hole in the street after a water main burst Saturday afternoon.
It was repaired Sunday and water service to affected businesses was restored.
A Philadelphia Water Department spokeswoman says PGW and PECO have to come out to check their infrastructure around the main.
A high power gas line sits above it.
Before re-paving the street can start, checks to the gas line have to be made.
Stores along the 1600 block of Walnut understand the problems but they're also worried that could be bad for business.
Jin Juang, manager at the Wok, says he lost a third of his business Saturday night when Walnut was closed to traffic between 16th and 17th.
Employees at City Sports say they had to let employees go early. Employee Matt Montrose is concerned what it could mean for sales during one of the sports store's busiest times of the year.
"It's a little intimidating knowing because our street is closed the traffic is going to be affected. My biggest hope is it can be resolved quickly."
This weekend's water main break is the latest in a series of ruptures this year. PWD says they don't know what caused it or how old the pipe is. What they do know is that the recently announced 17.5 percent rate hike will help to make future repairs.
