Our Principal
Leah P. Summers
"Children learn through interacting: interacting with teachers, peers, environment, and content."
AJA is a school that values process rather than product. We focus on "verbs" rather than "nouns." My goal is that our students not be satisfied with a static reservoir of information but seek out opportunities to use and apply the information in meaningful ways. A learner at AJA never arrives at an end as each new learning begets new questions to be answered and new problems to be solved.
"We teach kids; not just curriculum."
At all levels, learning must be developmentally appropriate and unique to the needs and styles of the individual. Therefore, for me, the physical, emotional, social and intellectual needs of the individual student are as important as the content we teach.

Before coming to AJA in 2007, Leah lived in Marblehead, Massachusetts, where she served as a teacher, director, principal and ultimately co-head of the same school over a 27 year period. She holds a BS in Early Childhood Education and an MS in Symbolization and the Reading process. Leah is married to Harold and they are the parents of two wonderful day school graduates.

With the announcement of the BlackBerry Bold 9900 comes confirmation from T-Mobile that they will indeed be making the device available to their customers. Sadly, no official date has been set as of yet or pricing terms but for some folks, just knowing T-Mobile is adding it to their line-up will be enough to hold them over. Of course, we expect other carriers to make their announcements as well so, stay tuned! Did we mention it was HSPA+ enabled? It is.

Will this device be on at&t also? :(
I don't wanna go through the unlocking and running it on edge -___- what if they use a micro sim?
ealvnv May 2, 2011 at 12:52 pm

feldmen01 May 2, 2011 at 11:24 am
this needs to be released YESTERDAY! I love my Storm 2 but I am dying for an upgrade...
It's like I've been trapped in the desert for months with no water to drink, only those damn mirages.
santi29402 May 2, 2011 at 11:24 am
This is great news, can't wait!!
Guatiao May 2, 2011 at 11:34 am
The Bold Touch is my plan B Berry, bring on the Monza/ Monaco TMoB!!!
c4rt00nb0y May 2, 2011 at 11:35 am
TMOBILE!.... EFFIN DEAD. This sucks ass. Is the 9930 going to be for Verizon?! GRRR... blood is boiling. AT&T customer here... gonna punch a bich right now.
WillHeSurvive May 2, 2011 at 12:49 pm
CX tweeted yesterday that the Bold Touch was in testing for AT&T.
richv77 May 2, 2011 at 11:36 am
Where's the Love for AT&T?
With the Torch.
Tmo baby, this phone is mine on day one. Lovin it....
captainbdsc May 2, 2011 at 6:33 pm
I am sure AT&T will get the same phone. It is just super nice that it isn't another AT&T exclusive.
shupor May 2, 2011 at 11:42 am
Yessss!!!!! Now i can keep exchanging the 9780 with the crappy keypad and hopefully frustrate Tmobile into upgrading me to the 9900 for free.
MsBrittz1016 May 2, 2011 at 11:47 am
hahaha that is my plan too!!!!!
MsBrittz1016 May 2, 2011 at 11:48 am
considering AT&T customers got screwed with no 9780 - i would hope they get this phone
Considering all other carriers customers got screwed with no Torch - i would hope AT&T dont get this phone.
DaPhoneking May 2, 2011 at 11:50 am
Anyone with camping gear? I'm so going to get this on opening day! :D
grreyes24 May 2, 2011 at 12:08 pm
Yes! That's what I wanted to hear. I love T-Mobile and will be there on launch day to pick this up. Hopefully the AT&T purchase doesn't get approaved. This phone with HSPA+ paired to my PlayBook will be perfect.
breakmedown May 2, 2011 at 12:09 pm
I'm waiting for the AT&T announcement. If it doesn't go to AT&T hopefully they will have the 3G AT&T bands on board.
aa25007 May 2, 2011 at 12:31 pm
I'll sell my old Bold about ten days before it comes out and I'll be the first one in line at my local t-mobile store to get this phone and put it on my plan... Yes, I can't wait anymore now please T-mobile come out with the Playbook with 4G to replace my Galaxy Tablet.
hoonaynay#CB May 2, 2011 at 12:35 pm
I'm just a tad confused. The phone is HSPA+ enabled but not LTE compatible? I know they're two entirely-different technologies,, but that may turn off some CDMA users. Personally, I don't need "4G" but it strikes me as odd. Anyone else?
mpatchez May 2, 2011 at 12:50 pm
Yeah thats what I've been thinking too. Ide like to see an LTE BB now! lol
Lets see what the CDMA models surprise us with....
mkye86 May 2, 2011 at 12:46 pm
All the 3G fuss I made for nothing. This is amazing news!
1. Osama Killed - √
2. TMo Getting a 4G BB - √
I dont know what to do with myself!!! This is even better than Osama Dying! I love this new BOLD. I can't wait!!
Kiddo2050 May 2, 2011 at 1:20 pm
With the Bridge debacle at AT&T this might just be the reason to say good bye!!
DatBoyHam May 2, 2011 at 1:22 pm
Now that 4G was BB best kept secret.....I"M LOVING IT let's go T-MO gone and push this device on out i can get rid of the unlocked Torch
echo8787 May 2, 2011 at 2:14 pm
Anyone know when this will be released? Do you think they will release it before the Monza?!? I sure hope so.
I want this machine for yesterday can't wait any longer
Daviddlt126 May 2, 2011 at 2:40 pm
Screw the torch 2, I had 2 defective torch 1's and vowed never to purchase it again. Still can't buy the 9780, want my 9900!!
srodriguez13 May 2, 2011 at 3:04 pm
If the 9900 is 4g then so will the Bberry Touch I cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!! Although Im weary because it will be my first keyboard-less phone ever!
carios23 May 2, 2011 at 3:15 pm
I want this ASAP!
Holy Cow! Will it also be UMA capable? Need that UMA but I think if AT&T takes over, they're going to kill it. Dang, I hope that merger doesn't go through.
Stixy May 29, 2011 at 11:25 am
I agree. UMA Rocks!!! While I'm personally not fond of T-Mo, (Tech support sucks & they haven't stood behind my last 2 buggy phones), I believe the AT&T takeover, will only make things worse! Looking foward to possibly buying this phone.... the deal breaker would be no UMA!
att takeover is just bad for business whatever spin they put in it. i'm enjoying my playbook and 9700 on tmo...imagine the 9900...
mellos10 May 2, 2011 at 3:58 pm
So the GSM version will be 4g? What about the Sprint version?
datta72 May 2, 2011 at 4:16 pm
I'd like to Thank the Gods above and the kind people over at RIm for making this phone a reality. Thank You, Thank You and Thank You
House_Ape May 2, 2011 at 4:20 pm
IF Sprint gets it :(
xBigReemo#CB May 2, 2011 at 4:35 pm
YESSS!!!! I will be there on release date, I'm due an upgrade probably right around the time it is released!
THANK GOD they announced a 4G BB.. That's about the only thing that will revive them< and boy will it!! I can't wait to get this phone & bridge my playbook with it!! Whatever company it goes to will be my new best buddy.
imcurved May 2, 2011 at 5:52 pm
Please keep UMA feature for me.
SteakArmstrong May 2, 2011 at 5:59 pm
Someone tell me what HSPA means? What does does it do/what are the advantages?
mavricxx May 2, 2011 at 8:48 pm
Yes, keep UMA and just make one GSM phone- AT&T/T-Mobile ALL bands interchangeable. Also, for the 4G/3G Playbooks add UMA as well.
Thank you tmobilee- you warm my heart!!
howl078 May 2, 2011 at 10:07 pm
mavricxx May 3, 2011 at 9:09 am
Please bring the BB Touch to T-Mo with compatability on all bands for AT&T and T-Mo and make it HSPA+ 42Mbps.
vjuanx May 4, 2011 at 12:55 am
At BBWorld many of the 9900 devices by the RIM employees were using their 9900's on AT&T. So im sure AT&T will get the Bold Touch for sure!
Gamesdmc3 May 4, 2011 at 2:29 am
Now all T-mobile need to do is add the 9860 to their team
itstrentmichael May 4, 2011 at 4:55 pm
It NEEDS to come to AT&T.
zeligman May 9, 2011 at 9:04 pm
can't even get 3g in most places on t mo - on my 9700. THANKFULLY, uma. if that goes away, i'm gone from tmo.

Connecticut appears to be the next state in line to abolish the death penalty – the 17th state to be exact.
I have two questions, though: 1.) What took us so long? 2.) And what are the other states waiting for?
Oh, I'm not worried, I know the death penalty will eventually be abolished across the entire United States. History has shown us that the human race keeps moving toward a more compassionate and civilized society. We definitely have a ways to go, but we're on the right track. We're making good progress as a society, I just wish the process didn't take so long.
So what is taking so long? If we stop for a moment and ask why we have a "death penalty" in the first place, perhaps we can find an answer there. The reasons that come to mind for me are: revenge/justice, deterrence, removing threats from society, and "that's the way it's been done for thousands of years."
Justice is defined as, "just behavior or treatment" or "the quality of being fair and reasonable." Revenge is defined as, "the action of inflicting hurt or harm on someone for a wrong suffered at their hands." Unfortunately, too many times "justice" is used when what is really meant is "revenge." So much so, that the two terms have become rather interchangeable in our society.
People talking of "justice" often cite the Biblical passage of "an eye for an eye." However, this statement is not speaking of justice, nor does it actually speak to inflicting harm on someone because they inflicted harm on another as so many seem to think. The phrase "an eye for an eye" is a quotation from several passages of the Hebrew Bible in which a person who has injured the eye of another is instructed to pay compensation. Here, the Bible is actually speaking of paying for the value of an eye or a tooth in monetary terms, not of inflicting the same or worse treatment on a person for a crime.
Of course, in the moment when we are hurting most, it's probably fair to say we all initially want revenge. That's why we have a system to create our laws while outside of a traumatic environment. And fortunately, there are many examples of family members that while grieving from horrific losses at the hands of another, publicly forgo the need for revenge. While many would like us to think so, revenge is not the appropriate response to harm inflicted by another. It is an uncivilized need to try to set things "right" in the mind of the wounded party. Of course, these kinds of things can never truly be set "right."
Imagine a parent openly instructing their 8-year old child to go and seek revenge against another child who they felt did them wrong. I believe most parents would rightly recoil from such a thought. I use this technique a lot – and call it the Child Test. If we wouldn't openly teach it to our children, and be proud of doing it, then we as adults shouldn't engage in that behavior either.
It's difficult to understand how some people still believe that having the death penalty on the books is a deterrent for aberrant behavior when both history and overwhelming research proclaims otherwise. For the average citizen, the death penalty simply does not work as a deterrent. Of course, we'll always have unbalanced individuals like psychopaths to deal with, but the death penalty will never be a deterrent for these individuals. Nor will it be a deterrent for "acts of passion or rage." By their very definition, people in these states of mind are not thinking about the long term consequences of their actions, which would be required for the death penalty to act as a deterrent for them. Just a little bit of studying will show that it is painfully apparent that the death penalty does not deter violent crime.
Removing a Threat:
If killing someone is the best we can come up with in order to prevent someone from repeat offenses, then we must have missed a few things. Personally, I could never get past the thought that killing a person that kills another somehow teaches society that killing is wrong and unacceptable.
I've also never been a fan of the idea of locking a person up in a jail cell for the rest of their natural born lives. There's both the absurd cost involved in this approach and the moral question about acknowledging a person's dignity.
Yes, I know that sending all the criminals to a "penal colony" was tried in Australia and it didn't work so well. But that was a very long time ago and a lot has changed since then. While many find this notion completely off the wall, I've always been a fan of the "Escape from New York" approach. In this movie, violent offenders were removed from society and placed in Manhattan, which had been converted into a maximum security prison. Don't start typing yet, I'm not suggesting Manhattan, but we easily have the technology to set up an area, perhaps an island, that "inmates" couldn't escape from where they can be sent to fend for themselves. Basically, if they don't want to live here by society's rules, then they can go live somewhere else.
That's the way it's been done for thousands of years:
Doesn't even deserve an explanation.
My point in all of this is that surely, there has to be a more civilized and less hypocritical way to handle the people we currently plan to put to death for crimes against society. There is and we will get there. I know we will get there because when I look to history, although there are many examples of individuals and groups that fought to their very deaths to prevent – and actually as it turns out, merely to forestall – positive social evolution, positive social evolution finally won out. We abolished slavery, gave women the vote, stood up for interracial marriage, stopped requiring African Americans to sit at the back of the bus, enacted equal rights, and the list goes on and on.
It takes time for society to embrace change at these levels. I'm not worried – just a little impatient.

Main Street Sweets Owner Retires; Local Couple to Take Over
After 19 years of serving up treats to the Westhampton Beach community Kenny Schnabel, owner of Main Street Sweets has decided to retire, but he said he is leaving the store in good hands — to locals, Shawn and Toni Humdinger.
Amidst Internet chatter suggesting Keith Luce, executive chef and owner at the Jedediah Hawkins Inn/Luce and Hawkins Restaurantin South Jamesport has taken his leave, Alex Algieri, a chef formerly of the North Fork Oyster Company in Greenport, will be taking over the kitchen.
The new chef's father, Al Algieri, an East Quogue resident and member of the East Quogue Civic Association, confirmed that his son had indeed begun working as a chef at Jedediah Hawkins. Comments have sprung up online since Edible East End published a report Monday saying Luce had cut ties with the popular establishment.
Both Luce and the inn's owner Lia Polites declined multiple requests to confirm that report.
Local Artists Promote Paintings 'On Cloud 9' at Clovis Point Vineyard
When she helped form a support group for local artists about five years ago, Cutchogue resident Ann McCaughey had trouble coming up with a name.
But she settled on a reflection of how painting plein air, or outdoors, made her feel — on Cloud 9.
"My husband didn't quite like the name — he thought it sounded too much like a massage parlor," she said. "But when you go out plein air painting, there is a kind of a moment that is just sort of like ecstasy, the Cloud 9 effect."
Christmas Tree Store Opens in Amagansett
With the holiday season upon us, there's a new Christmas shop to fill all your holiday décor desires.
C. Whitmore Gardens in Amagansett opened its new 2012 Christmas Shop this past weekend with everything from Fraser fir Christmas trees to ornaments to "deck the halls."
The store is stocked up on a wide assortment of wreaths and garlands, from the West Coast and balsam wreaths and white pine garland from North Carolina. It also carries poinsettias, from 2-inch to 14-inch clay pots, depending on where they will be placed.
Local Business Says Its Ice Melter 'Beets' the Rest
With a harsh winter predicted for the Northeast, municipalities and homeowners will soon begin stocking up on road salt to keep streets and driveways passable and safe, and to that end, a upstart company is marketing a new product that they say is more effective at melting ice while also being environmentally friendly.
East End Organics, based in Riverhead and started by a Bridgehampton businessman, is selling ice melter products that use all-natural beet juice in place of chloride accelerants such as magnesium, calcium or potassium, which salesman Victor Balchunas said are corrosives and harsh on the environment. Meanwhile, before being mixed with salt, beet juice is 60 percent less corrosive than distilled water, he said. "It takes the harshness of the salt an it neutralizes it."
The natural ice melter is better for asphalt and sidewalks, and safer for pets, Balchunas said.

The borough assembly is set to meet tonight, on the agenda for this meeting is an ordinance to repeal the borough's anadromous streams protection ordinance. The ordinance is up for introduction and was sponsored, by freshman assembly member Kelly Wolf…
Asm. Wolf(K-Beach): "Well the intent is, is to, put back to the assembly to do what the people asked, and repeal 2011-12."
With the administration's task force continuing their town hall meeting process, even after this ordinance would be introduced to the assembly, we asked Wolf if he thought this would be premature…
Asm. Wolf(K-Beach): "No, I don't believe so. I think the task force, especially after the town hall meeting in Nikiski; I think the task force has buried their head. Assembly is hearing from an overwhelming number of people, as well as the task force, they want this thing repealed, or to start over. It was developed, in short and sweet terms, the dark of night, introduced without proper notice, and I think that the people deserve to have their voices heard. Whether I believe that this ordinance is going to be moved forward to a public hearing, I don't. I think there's a certain number of individuals on the assembly that want anything to do with repealing, I don't think they don't care what the people want or think."
If introduced, the assembly will have a May 7th public hearing on this ordinance.
** Comments on this story do not represent the thoughts and / or opinions of KSRM Radio Group, Staff, Management or Sponsors. **
The over whelming majority of intelligent voters want the salmon habitat ordinance to remain in place to protect our valuable natural resources. Kelly Wolf is misinformed, to think otherwise. I think the voters in Wolf's K-Beach district will let him know this during the next Bourough Assembly election.
Kelly, you are correct the group of 6, Bill,Hal,Mako,Brent, Linda and Sue…all will do what the special interest people they represent want…4 of they Violate their Oath routinely…
Joe your so smart…Bourough is Borough!!! And whats with you not using spell check…use your right clicker then click the correct spelling… Get a Life…Bet you don't own land on the Peninsula
Hi Ed. So sory abut the mis-spelling………….guess that's importanmt to the resource destroyers up there? Anyway, I herad there was a petition from the Cook Inlet Keeper with lots and lots of signatures to maintain the anadromas stream ordinance. I wonder how many names were in that petition.
From what I am hearing, Kelly Wolf is representing Nikiski pretty well. He must have changed Districts! LOL

The Rams' offensive line has picked right up where it left off early in the offseason as a particularly hot topic. A few months back, the big news was an alarmingly early rash of injuries to projected starting OTs Jason Smith (fractured toe) and rookie Rodger Saffold (knee) and starting OLG Jason Bell (knee), among others. With the injury situation now a lot less alarming — although Smith is still being closely monitored — the big news on the first day of training camp was the strong possibility that Smith, who was drafted high in the first round last year to presumably be the long-term starting left tackle, might start off the season at right tackle, with Saffold on the left side. "I don't see why not," Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo said of such a scenario. "You know, Jason started off that way (at right tackle) last year." Word is Saffold might have already proven he's a better pass blocker than Smith, who has been hindered by his inability to stay healthy.

Teinosuke Kinugasa's Kuretta Ippei – a 1926 film known in the States as A Page of Madness – has somehow managed to survive the vagaries of fate. Kinugasa sought to make a European-style experimental movie in Japan and, in the process, he made one of the great landmarks of silent cinema. You can watch it here.

Before Alfred Hitchcock freaked out audiences everywhere by killing off the protagonist halfway through Psycho, before he was praised as a great master of cinema by a bunch of French critics who would themselves go on to become cinematic masters, before the adjective "Hitchcockian" entered the language, Hitchcock was simply a guy struggling to make a go of it as a director.

Brad Lunders is a teenager forcefully abducted from his home in the middle of the night by his own mother's consent to a harsh wilderness reform facility. There is no contact with the outside world, and the retired war colonel in charge prides himself on breaking an inmate's sprit in order to correct delinquent behavior. As we learn of the tragic events that led to Brad's arrival, unforeseen circumstances threaten to tear the reform facility apart, forcing Brad to confront not only his fellow inmates and the personnel in charge, but finally his own sense of what is right and what is wrong.

TJ McCue, Contributor
I write about makers and inventors and creators.
Yelp has more than 30 million reviews on its site and over 78 million monthly visitors. It is a force of nature for mobile consumers who want to pick the best restaurant for dinner, but increasingly for all sorts of professional services and retail stores. Yelp is a trusted resource and wants to keep it that way.
To illustrate some of Yelp's power: Every second, a consumer generated directions to or called a local business from a Yelp mobile app, according to the company. That's something every app builder would love to report.
Last week, the New York Times posted an in-depth article from a Yelp "sting operation" that you may want to read: Buy Reviews On Yelp; Get Black Mark. According the post, Yelp is taking its trusted review process as critical to protect:
For the next three months, their Yelp profile pages will feature a "consumer alert" that says: "We caught someone red-handed trying to buy reviews for this business… The bigger Yelp gets, the more incentive there is to game the system," said Eric Singley, its vice president for consumer products and mobile. "These notices are the next step in protecting consumers." –New York Times
Business owners of all types are trying to sort out local and mobile, as well as social and Yelp is a big part of all three. This sting operation, although painful for some, will help the service grow.
If you're interested in more information about social, local, and mobile, check out this infographic from a Mark Fidelman post: Infographic: The Retailers Guide to Social, Local & Mobile (SoLoMo).
TJ, every article you've written on Yelp has been glowing and favorable. If you have an ownership interest in the equity or are being paid by Yelp, you should disclose it. Alternatively, you should disclose that you have no financial interest in the stock to give yourself more credibility.
BTW – wasn't one of your other tech article headlines: Facebook IPO – Buy early and as much as you can?
How did that great piece of financial advice work out for you? And by the way, Yelp admitted in its last earnings conference call that it was not able to monetize mobile. What evidence do you have that any of that has changed? (except for your own opinion?)
I feel that yelp is indifferent to the plight of small businesses, especially in this economy.
You mentioned in your comment to Maxie that there is so much negativity out there and you wanted to write positive things. Have you every looked at Yelps page? All these negativity comes from Yelp and is fueled by them. Yelp thrives on negativity and their business model is based on it. Now that you write a glowing review for a site that promoted negativity, you just created more negativity. You should write a good article about what business feel about Yelp. Have you ever thought why people are not complaining about Google, Urbanspoon, Facebook or Foursuare? Pls go figure. If you are a honest person do write about the negativity that Yelp brings. I am ok with Yelp filter as long as it gives business owners equal oppotunity to give a star to anonymos reviewes which should be weighed in for the star rating. Won't it make the playing field level?

ANDERSON, Ind. — One week after allowing the Buffalo Bills to complete nearly 80 percent of their passes and score a franchise-record 44 points in a preseason game, the Indianapolis Colts' defense rebounded Sunday.
With six sacks, one interception and no touchdowns allowed, the unit made a strong first half by the first-team offense hold up in a 20-12 victory against the New York Giants.
The game was another indication of the growing confidence in the second season of head coach Chuck Pagano's hybrid 3-4 scheme.
"That's exactly how we want to play," Pagano said of the performance in the Big Apple. "There were so many good things, and a lot of players contributed and did some great things."
The defense got off to a slow start when a 21-yard run by New York's David Wilson and a pass interference penalty against cornerback Greg Toler on consecutive plays gave the Giants a first down at the Colts' 13-yard line on the opening series.
After a three-yard run, an incompletion and a six-yard pass play, New York went for it on fourth-and-1. Outside linebacker Erik Walden and free safety Antoine Bethea met Andre Brown at the line of scrimmage and ended the drive.
It was the first of three trips by the Giants' first-team offense into the red zone that ended with a total of six points allowed by the Colts.
"Those guys were flying around," Pagano said. "They're playing with enthusiasm. They're feeding off each other's energy. They're making plays. Again, doing what they did down in the red zone, any time you can keep somebody out of the end zone, force field goals and play the way they played down there, we're going to be a damn good defense."
The final score of the Buffalo game obscured a solid start by the first-team defense that forced a punt and recovered a fumble on its two possessions.
In fact, the only touchdown allowed by the defense in the first half of either preseason game was scored during a two-minute drill by the Bills against a unit featuring many of Indianapolis' third-stringers.
Buffalo quarterback E.J. Manuel had nine of his 16 completions and 68 of his 107 yards on the drive that ended with a 17-yard touchdown pass.
The main damage against the first team has come on long runs by the Bills' C.J. Spiller and the Giants' David Wilson early in the game. In each case, the running back has cut back against the Colts' overpursuit and used the defense's aggressiveness against it.
Pagano said Wilson's big gain was the result of a miscommunication between two defenders and admitted the defense still has some work to do.
"We're going to keep working to eliminate the big plays, the chunk plays in the run and pass game," he said. "It was unfortunate we had the PI (pass interference) which gave up a big chunk there, but in the one run, one guy thought one guy was supposed to be somewhere else, and we've just got to trust the guy next to you and that he's going to be where he's supposed to be."
Toler made up for his penalty by intercepting Eli Manning on the next possession, and Walden tied for the team lead with six tackles and added a sack against the Giants. They're just two of the many additions general manager Ryan Grigson made during the offseason to bring the Colts' personnel more in line with the needs of the 3-4 scheme.
Defensive tackle Ricky Jean Francois made four tackles against New York, and nose tackle Aubrayo Franklin recovered the fumble against Buffalo. And Indianapolis hopes another newcomer, strong safety LaRon Landry, will make his debut this week against the Cleveland Browns after missing the first two preseason games with a knee injury.
Pagano credited defensive coordinator Greg Manusky and his staff with making a quick transition from the 4-3 to the 3-4 and praised Grigson and his scouts for adding the right pieces. But none of it works without the players.
"They've bought in hook, line and sinker and believe and trust the scheme and the calls and their coaches," Pagano said. "So when you get everybody on the same page like that and you start having success from a confidence standpoint, you can see the level of play will just continue to go up week in and week out. It's very exciting."

Hi Guys! My name is Comet and I'm a regal, two to three-year-old, 100-pound German Rottweiler. I was rescued from a local shelter after my owners surrendered me. Can you believe that? I'm another casualty of young parents having a new baby and deciding they no longer had room for a big dog like me. I don't understand their thinking, but I'm young, gorgeous, and ready for a fresh start.
I'm a multi-faceted kind of dog... One on hand, I'm sweet and loving; I love people and am excellent with my foster family's kids. I let them lay up against me when we watch TV, and love to snuggle up with them and get as many belly rubs as possible. I follow them around everywhere and want to make sure they're always safe. I'm also playful, and love to play with any type of ball or Kong toy, and can always be found carrying one around in my mouth. I can entertain myself, and like to toss my toys in the air and fetch them, or play with my soccer ball outside.
On the other hand, I can be a little too protective and guarding of my toys. I like to sneak up and steal toys from my foster pup sister, and am still learning how to share. My foster mom (who's awesome) has trained big dogs like me before, so we are in doggie boot camp right now. We're working on my resource guarding issues around toys and learning how to trade. We're also working on basic commands and leash walking. I walk very well on a leash, but can be reactive when I see another dog on the walk, so we are working on my socialization skills. I am not food-aggressive at all, but I am highly motivated by treats, so they are great tool to help me learn quickly.
I'm already crate-trained, almost fully potty-trained, and am great in the car and always up for a new adventure. I'm smart, learn quickly, and am responding well to training and my daily routine. I get vigorous walks twice a day and we also do a daily practice of commands. I'm a big, strong dog who is quite athletic, so I will need a strong, assertive leader that has some Rottweiler or big dog experience to manage me.
My foster mom describes me as a kind and gentle spirit in search of routine, consistency, and leadership. Mutts Matter thinks I would do best as an only dog, and definitely NO CATS. I don't really like them.
Do you see this adorable, chunky face...How can you resist me?
To learn more about Comet, go to the Mutts Matter Adoption Page and fill out an application, or you can contact Suzanne at email@example.com

The goverment needs to learn to spend and control spending only on necessary things. Sorry but the arts should be privately funded
An online journal about visual art, the urban landscape and design. Mary Louise Schumacher, the Journal Sentinel's art and architecture critic, leads the discussion and a community of writers contribute to the dialogue.
Budget amendment to cut arts funding?
Hi everyone, an email has been circulating feverishly since this afternoon among the arts community. Facebook messages have been flying. One advocate, Mike Brenner, formed a Facebook event to get the word out. The worry is palpable.
Here's what the email says will happen at tomorrow's meeting of the Common Council:
"...an amendment to the City budget will be presented which would cut $100,000 from the Milwaukee Arts Board budget....We urge all friends of he arts to contact their alderperson TODAY and urge them to vote NO on Amendment #117..."
The email goes onto say that the amendment would make the MAB ineligible for state funds, which was $32,900 in 2008.
In any case, the paper's City Hall reporter Larry Sandler is covering the budget story. I forwarded the email to him and asked him about the issue. I wanted to share what I learned.
Larry says that the council's finance committee would not even consider the amendment. None of the five members was willing to put it on the table for discussion, which Larry took as a sign that it didn't have much of a chance.
As of the most recent count, there are 125 proposed amendments. The sponsor of this one, Ald. Bohl, is known for presenting budget cutting amendments. He does have a right to raise it again with the full council, and Larry will be there all day, from 9 a.m. until they are done in the evening to watch everything that happens.
It's good to be vigilant. But I hope this bit of context lessens the worry a bit.

Too bad. The government needs to control spending. If your causes are worthy then raise the money through the private sector!! Times are tough right now.
The goverment needs to learn to spend and control spending only on necessary things. Sorry but the arts should be privately funded
keep in mind that almost all of the arts board funding goes to support programs these groups do that engage the largest, most diverse segments of the community. many of the organizations are picking up the slack for cut MPS art and music budgets. these arts groups often provide the only exposure to the arts for many children in Milwaukee.
so when i hear someone say we need to stop funding the arts, it makes me want to kick them in their "private sector."
i'm sorry but money is very tight and cuts have to be made somewhere unfortunalty progams like the arts and othe nice but not neccesary programs just cannot be funded by tax money. The necessicty to to be taken care of 1st roads money to create and keep jobs fire and police thats it. This state and county is going broke money has to be cut somewhere.
I love music and what not but the money will jsut have to come form the private sector. Get out your check book if you think its a worthy cause.
You people must people liberal you expect goverment to take care of everything. Instead of citizens donating to your cause. The same liberal msg what about me. Why don't you ask people to make a donation to your cause instead of relying on tax money. You would be what people would give to support your cause.
Remember numerous studies have shown that conservatives are far more generous in terms of both money and time than liberals. Maybee if you asked people for a donation instead of the goverment you would get more money.
There are more than 250 arts and culture organizations in the seven county region including Milwaukee employing more than 9,000 people and contributing to economic development in excess of $250 million including over $33 million in state and local taxes. I'd say that's more than "worth" the city's investment of $100,000 from the taxes that the individuals who are employed in the industry are contributing.
I'm not a wealthy person and don't consider myself to be either liberal or conservative. I spread my gifts (time, patronage and contributions) to as many organizations (arts, human services, religious, etc.) as I can (at least a couple dozen), which isn't more than a drop in the bucket compared to the need. I'm curious as to how many you contribute to, alwaysrocking?

OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (AP) -- A new pocket guide to the city of Oak Ridge and its connections to the Manhattan Project will give visitors a tour of the once secret city.
The guide, which is available now for sale at several locations around the city, is 35 pages and includes a detailed driving tour of heritage sites within the community, along with facts and historical photos from the World War II era.
The Oak Ridger reports that Martin McBride wrote the Oak Ridge Heritage Tour Guide with assistance from longtime city residents. The city became home to a secret federal research lab that helped to build the atomic bomb where more than 100,000 workers built and operated three large nuclear facilities.
