CHAPEL HILL — A task force will begin to review UNC-Chapel Hills policy on sexual assault cases Wednesday four months after several women filed a federal complaint against the university and more than a year after campus leaders with expertise in sexual violence expressed concerns about the universitys policies and procedures.
At its first meeting on Wednesday, the 21-member panel of administrators, faculty, staff and students will hear from a nationally recognized consultant on sexual misconduct who has spent months meeting with groups on campus. The consultant, former Philadelphia sex crimes prosecutor Gina Smith, was hired by UNC-CH for $160,000 for eight months of work, a university spokeswoman said Tuesday.
Smith will give an overview on federal expectations for sexual assault policies and tell the panel about suggestions shes heard from a variety of people at the university.
Then the panel will get to work, meeting weekly during the summer to come up with recommendations for a revised policy, said Christi Hurt, chairwoman of the task force and interim Title IX coordinator, who is on leave from her position as director of the Carolina Womens Center.
The development of this task force acknowledges that we always have miles to go before we sleep, said Hurt, who worked for a decade on a statewide sexual assault coalition in the state of Washington. The university is willing to put resources and energy behind making sure that we are taking steps in the right direction to make it a safe campus for everyone.
She said the panel will be open to fresh ideas as it works to come up with revisions. Hurt will blog weekly about proposals; an online suggestion box will collect public input.
Were trying really hard to make this a process that people can engage with and help tell us their interests and concerns as we go, Hurt said, so that we are flexible about how we move forward.
The appointment of a broad-based review panel follows widespread media attention about UNC-CHs handling of sexual assault cases. In January, five women students, a former student and a former administrator filed a federal complaint with the U.S. Department of Educations Office for Civil Rights, alleging that the university mishandled sexual assault cases and violated the students rights under the federal Title IX gender equity law.
A federal investigation of UNC-CH is underway, and across the nation, other campuses are fighting similar battles after similar complaints.
Different conversation
Andrea Pino, a rising senior at UNC-CH and one of the federal complainants, said the new task force is a validation of students concerns about UNC-CHs policy, which she said is legalistic, complex and overly focused on compliance.
She said students had complained about UNC-CHs policies last year but got nowhere with the university.
It was very much, you know, were in compliance, your concerns are being heard, but nothing was being done, said Pino, who has talked publicly about being raped last year. And then when we filed the complaint, it became a whole different conversation.
In late 2011, a staff committee focused on education around sexual assault and relationship violence wrote to Chancellor Holden Thorp offering help with a revision of the universitys policy, required under federal guidelines issued in the spring of that year. The letter expressed concern about the policy and a lack of training for people who hear sexual assault case proceedings.
As an institution, we should not simply adjust current policy to comply with the minimum standards set forth by Title IX, said the letter, signed by 15 staffers. Rather, we should create policy and procedures that will serve our students well. We want a policy that will help survivors get the help and support they need and that will hold perpetrators appropriately accountable.
One of the signers, Melinda Manning, an assistant dean of students, eventually left the university and signed on to the federal complaint.
The policy was ultimately revised in August of last year. University spokeswoman Karen Moon said student affairs administrators, with many other members of the campus community, worked to strengthen the campus process for responding to allegations of sexual assault. Several new staff positions were created.
University officials believe the current revised policy reflects a commitment to a fair, respectful process that complies with federal guidelines and is fair and supportive of the students involved, Moon said in a statement. However, the campus conversations that have taken place throughout the past academic year, including those led by Gina Smith last semester, have provided additional feedback for the new task force starting its work this week to consider.
A whole new look
So now the policy will get a thorough look by the 21-member panel that includes some of the same people who offered their expertise more than a year ago.
Pino said shes hopeful because the task force includes counselors, professors and academic advisers who encounter students and rape survivors daily.
It just shows you how different things are now, she said in talking about the makeup of the group. By filing a complaint we created a conversation that never wouldve happened.

In order to enable the engineer to operate and control a locomotive successfully and economically a certain number of fittings on the locomotive are necessary. These fittings consist chiefly of the safety valves, whistle, steam gauge, lubricator, water gauges, blower, throttle valve, injector, air brake, and signal apparatus.
Safety Valves. The universal practice at present is to use at least two safety valves of the pop type upon every locomotive boiler. On small locomotives where clearances will permit, the safety valves are placed in the dome cap. On large locomotives where the available height of the dome is limited, the safety valves are usually placed on a separate turret. When limiting heights will not permit the use of turrets, the safety valves may be screwed directly into the roof of the boiler.
The construction of a good safety valve is such that when it is raised, the area for the escape of steam is sufficient to allow it to escape as rapidly as it is formed, and that as soon as the pressure has fallen a pre-determined amount, it will close.
It should be so designed that it can neither be tampered with nor get out of order. It must act promptly and efficiently and not be affected by the motion of the locomotive. These conditions are all fulfilled in the type of valve shown in section in Fig. 91. In this design, the valve a rests on the seat b b and is held down by a spindle c, the lower end of which rests on the bottom of a hole in the valve a. A helical spring d tests on a collar on the spindle. The pressure on the spindle is regulated by screwing the collar e up or down. The valve seat b b may be rounded or straight. Outside of the valve seat there is a projection f, beneath which a groove g is cut in the casing. When the valve lifts, this groove is filled with steam which presses against that portion of the valve outside of the seat, and, by thus increasing the effective area of the valve, causes it to rise higher and to remain open longer than it otherwise would without this projection. The adjustment of the valve is usually made so that after opening, it will permit steam to escape until the pressure in the boiler is about 4 pounds below the normal pressure. The steam escaping through the small holes h, is muffled, thus avoiding great annoyance.
Another form of safety valve which is being largely used is that shown in Fig. 92. The principle of its operation is the same as that just described. It is said to be very quiet and yet gives effective relief. It is being adopted by several railroads.

The President's Laundry List
The State of the Union address is a blueprint for governing, a signal to the federal executive bureaucracy of what the president's priorities are.
The State of the Union is an odd speech. It's the one time in a typical year that the president can count on to speak directly to the entire nation (or as much of it as he's going to get). But because of that it's also almost always a rhetorical mess—a policy laundry list that tends to lack thematic coherence. This isn't for lack of effort on the part of the speechwriters, and sometimes the presidents.
Speaking at a Bipartisan Policy Center panel of former presidential speechwriters this morning, Jeff Shesol, a former Clinton speechwriter, recalled a suggestion he made not too long after he arrived at the White House for Clinton's 1999 State of the Union address. "I was full of what I thought of as fresh ideas, I wrote a memo arguing for a tightly thematic approach to the State of the Union address—to finally reject the laundry list, to make an argument for something, but let a lot of other stuff fall by the way side in these other speeches and so forth," he said. "I made my case in a couple of page memo." How'd that idea go over? "I was told, essentially, 'You're adorable.'" Then, he said, "I got to work like everybody else filling out the laundry list."
[Check out our editorial cartoons on President Obama.]
John McConnell, who wrote speeches for President George W. Bush echoed Shesol's experience. "I actually thought we were going to accomplish this after 9/11, the first State of the Union after the attack," he recalled. "I really thought it was possible, but that was also an 'adorable' notion."
There's a reason for this. The State of the Union address is a blueprint for governing, a signal to the federal executive bureaucracy of what the president's priorities are.
Which isn't to say that attempts to get around that issue don't periodically crop up. As his staff worked on his 1970 State of the Union address, as I recount in White House Ghosts: Presidents and Their Speechwriters, Richard Nixon complained to them that he wanted the proverbial thematic speech. "Why do we have to have all that dull stuff about agriculture and cesspools?" Nixon asked his aides. "Let's get the dull subjects out of the way in a paragraph toward the beginning." At this point he leaned back and put his feet up on a desk. "Good God," he said, frowning, "Agriculture in a State of the Union isn't worth a damn."
[See a collection of political cartoons on the economy.]
The fix Nixon came up with, which Reagan also tried in his second term, was a long, programmatic, written State of the Union address and a shorter, more thematic spoken one.
And Shesol wasn't the only Clinton era scribe to come up with the notion of getting away from the laundry list approach. As Clinton was preparing his 1998 address, the Monica Lewinsky scandal broke. "Now the speech has to be really poetic," chief speechwriter Michael Waldman quipped in one meeting, prompting deputy chief of staff John Podesta to fire back, "Yeah, now it's going to have to be in iambic pentameter."

By Rev. Suzanne Gorhau First Presbyterian Church
The Daily Iowegian
---- — I've been a member of the Appanoose County Ministerial Association since I came to Centerville almost five years ago. During that time, we've done good ministry together. We've supported The Lord's Cupboard (food bank), Reaching All People Together (which oversees the Angel's Hands thrift shop and provides transportation to doctors' appointments) and the Pregnancy Center. We've started the Summer Lunch Program. We've led services at the nursing homes and provided chaplains for the hospital. We've worshiped together at Thanksgiving and during Holy Week. We've sung together at the Christmas Musicale. And the offerings we've received have gone to support those organizations and help people in need in the community.
Like all organizations with people who have strongly held beliefs, we've had some disagreements. We've disagreed about what it means to be an ecumenical organization when members have diverse beliefs, and we've disagreed about how to best help people in need. We've worked for more tha a year to see if we could work out those differences because it's painful to think we can't work together. But I'm starting to think that just like Paul and Barnabas (Acts 15:39), it might be time to "part company."
So I've been dreaming about what a new group might look like. I envision a group that is inter-faith, where anyone who considers him or herself a person of faith would be welcome. I envision a group that dreams together about what God wants to do in this community, and then works side by side to make it happen. I envision a group that enters into relationships with people in need, equal relationships based on love and friendship since we are all beloved children of God. I envision a group that would work with the schools and law enforcement and city officials and the Chamber and the Betterment or Bust Group to find out what we could do to help make this community a better place. I envision a women's shelter, a tutoring program for kids and adults, classes to teach skills like cooking or gardening or finances, a program to help those who are getting a degree.
Do you have any of those same dreams? If you'd like to talk to me about it, send me an e-mail at email@example.com, or let's get together for coffee. I can't wait to see what God is going to do in this community through people of faith.

Weatherford Democrat
— By CHRISTIN COYNE
A woman known as the "Aledo Grinch" after being charged with stealing Christmas decorations in the Aledo area last year was sentenced to 70 years in prison by a Parker County jury Friday after being found guilty of a subsequent burglary.
Dana Lanette Brock, 44, was convicted in the 43rd District Court of burglarizing the garage of a home in the 100 block of Inglewood Drive near Aledo on May 28, taking a weed trimmer and power washer.
A homeowner caught the burglary on camera and deputies reportedly recognized the woman on the surveillance video, which gained notoriety in late 2012.
Months earlier, Brock was identified as a suspect in a series of Christmas decoration thefts in Aledo after surveillance video from one residential theft was published by area media organizations.
When deputies went to a residence in the 100 block of Rim Rock Road on May 28, where Brock was staying, they recovered the stolen items and Brock admitted to the burglary of the garage, claiming she had been coerced, according to testimony Thursday.
Kurt Bienmueller, Brock's boyfriend, testified that Brock was dragged out of the house by her hair in fear of her life by another man at the residence and forced to commit the burglary. However, according to a recording played for jurors, Brock told investigators that Bienmueller was in the hospital at the time of the burglary.
"The guilt-innocence phase of trial all came down to whether or not the jury believed that this other man coerced Brock into committing the burglary," Assistant District Attorney Jeff Swain said. "Under Texas law, the burden of proof for a duress justification is on the defense."
Despite the witness called by Raul Nevarez, Brock's defense attorney, the jury took five minutes to find Brock guilty.
"The defendant's long criminal record played a major role in her sentence," Assistant District Attorney Kathleen Catania said. "We introduced records showing that she had been convicted of solicitation of murder, two injury to a child offenses, two credit card abuse cases, two felony trespasses, two misdemeanor thefts, and numerous other non-adjudicated offenses."
Catania and Swain introduced evidence of the Aledo Christmas decoration theft during the punishment phase of the trial, as well.
Brock must serve 15 years in prison before she will be eligible to be considered for parole.
"Since good time is part of that equation, however, there is no certainty as to how long this defendant will actually have to serve," Swain said.
"Our sheriff's office did an excellent job quickly developing the evidence brought to them in both of these cases," Swain said. "We needed the help of the news media to get this defendant identified from the 'Christmas Grinch' theft offense, which resulted in several Crime Stoppers tips. The awareness within the sheriff's office of the video resulted in our burglary case being solved within a few hours of it being reported."

Bubba Flexes His Funk
The "evangelist" of hip-hop urban car culture found a new disciple in Oakley's James "Bubba" Stewart as the two spent the day with chrome and cameras. Bubba will appear on ESPN's "Ride with Funkmaster Flex" at the end of June. A rising star in 250cc, Bubba connected with the road warrior DJ whose reign over rap began in the New York '90s. For the TV series, Flex checked Bubba's ride then joined him at the track with Kawasakis and Oakley Crowbar™ MX goggles. When Bubba offered up OAKLEY THUMP™ digital music eyewear, Flex freaked: "The hell they gonna think up next?"

Youth hormone: WOW! Just by taking this orally once a day you can take 20 years off your aging life process.
That is the claim made by the manufacturers of a product called SeroVital-hgh. By taking this product once a day, if you are 50 years old you will again look 30. I am 92, I wonder if I took it twice a day if it would make me look like 52?
Would all you beautiful gals out there over 40 want to look 20 years younger or would you just want to look your natural self? I bet the first choice would win out. What do you think?
Cry babies: Hispanics are crying about illegal immigration, African-Americans still claim they suffer from discrimination, and they both, along with Arab Muslims, claim racial profiling by the police and home security agents.
Whites claim they are being discriminated against in securing the college of their choice or the job of their choice in certain companies. I sure do not know the answer to all those things but I would think that part of the answer would be to drive properly, stay honest and out of trouble and prepare yourself for the new requirements of the present and future job market. What do you think?
Church: I read where church attendance on Sundays is down; that almost half of our young people have lost religion by the age of 18. It matters not your religious denomination, we all should set a good example to our children by attending Sunday services with them. What do you think?
Speeding a concern: An article in the May 26th Democrat stated that just 27 percent of drivers were driving at the posted speed limit on South Main Street, on South Bowie just 16 percent and 31 percent on Palo Pinto Street. The article did not mention an accident rate increase on those streets. If there was no accident increase on those streets that should tell the traffic authorities something very obvious – the speed limits are too low. What do you think?
Immigrants and voting: The immigrants of the 19th and early 20th centuries came here to become Americans and did become Americans. The present immigrants seem to come here for citizenship, jobs and welfare, not particularly to become Americans. I do not believe any immigrants should be given the right to vote until 10 years after becoming a citizen. In 10 years they would be assimilated in to the American way of life, learn the English language, understand the constitutional privilege of voting and should by then be genuine Americans. Only then should they be given the right to vote. What do you think?
Remember 1938: I graduated from high school in 1938. The Great Depression was still on and World War II was on the horizon. I thought you might be interested in the general cost of living at that time:
• Gallon of gas – 10 cents.
• Loaf of bread – 9 cents.
• Best picture – "You Can't Take It With You."
• Song hit – "Thanks for the Memory."
• First "Superman" comic was published.
• Average new home – $3,900.
• Average house rental – $27 per month.
I had forgotten myself how low they were. What do you think?

2005 Suburban - Reduced Engine Power
Hello Everyone, I am new to the forum, and I am looking for some help. I have a 2005 low mile Suburban. This is my 3rd Suburban, and they have all been great for our family until this one. I have the "Reduced Engine Power" that many have had. I have been fighting this for a year now, and I don't want to pour more money into it. I am hopeful that someone can help. I have replaced the throttle body, wiring harness, cleaned all grounds, and have gone through a few throttle positioning sensors. The code keeps appearing, and our main family vehicle is just sitting in the driveway. Can anyone help? I thought about trading it in, but I cant pass along a lemon to someone else. Thanks, Steve

Well, most of these are just our favorites, not great films...
That Thing You Do!--Tom Hanks wrote and Directed this gem about a young pop band
The Committments-- same plot as the above, but set in Ireland. Most gratuitous use of the F word I've ever seen!
The Rocker--Rainn Wilson and Emma Stone's little gem. Another film about a band finding success
Galaxy Quest--Great cast and a great premise. We pretty much have the film's dialogue memorised
Band of Brothers mini-series--Best War series ever produced, bar none
Blades of Glory--I know people have mixed feelings about this film. It was worth it just for the scene of the Iron Lotus in N. Korea
Pride and Prejudice (2005)--Joe Wright's beautiful take on the classic story. Beautifully directed and filmed
Noises Off--just a truly funny film. We go see the play anytime it's in production
Miss Pettigrew Lives for the Day--Frances McDormand and Amy Adams were fantastic in this small film.
American Dreamer--A cute, fun film that is surprisingly not well known.
So hard to limit this to 10!
The Sound of Music
The King's Speech
The Shawshank Redemption
Fantasia (especially the original)
Apollo 13
Mr. Holland's Opus
The American President
The 3 Caballeros
The King & I

- Under the Tuscan Sun
- All About Eve

- The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie
- The Women - ONLY the original from 1939
- Mrs. Parker & the Vicious Circle

- It Happened One Night
- A Summer Place
And there are a lot more where they came from !

Suwanee has never been afraid of change, and the evidence continues around the city.
Several construction projects, city-sponsored and private, are in various stages now. An update:
- The popular Big Splash interactive fountain in has gotten a tune-up. City Manager Marty Allen said workers leveled all the pavers that have shifted over the years. Also, workers replaced the diaphragms and aligned the heads to improve the spray. All work is finished, and the fountain should be back on in early April.
- The old building at the city-owned lot at Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road and I-85 has been razed, and workers will begin constructing . City officials held a groundbreaking recently on the $1.9 million project, which will house a firing range in the rear. Hogan Construction of Norcross is handling the project.
- The QuikTrip store at Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road and Satellite Boulevard is taking shape. This lot used to be a private residence, but it was rezoned commercial in 2010. as a good-faith move to comply with aesthetic desires; some of the trees on the lot were left standing.

Register-Herald Sports Writer
Fans have time to pout. Coaches don't.
So while West Virginia University football fans have been debating where Saturday's 37-0 setback at Maryland ranks in terms of all-time embarrassing losses and putting lists together of who could possibly replace Dana Holgorsen if he can't get the Mountaineers turned around, the third-year coach has been spending his time worrying about what's ahead instead of what's already passed.
Was Holgorsen pleased with what happened on the rain soaked field at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore last weekend? Certainly not. But with No. 11 Oklahoma State coming to Mountaineer Field on Saturday for a noon matchup, there's no time to kick the walls to his office or pound his fist into his desk.
A national ESPN audience will be watching Saturday, and Holgorsen wants to make sure they see a better product.
"The sun came up Sunday, and we went back to work," he said Tuesday during his weekly meeting with the WVU media. "There are plenty of things to work on. We are all smart enough to understand that.
"There is plenty of blame to go around on all three sides of the ball. The best way to fix that is to look in the mirror and figure out what you can fix. That's exactly what we've done."
So what did Holgorsen see when he stood at his sink and glared into the eyes looking back at him? What is he going to change about the way he's done his job through the Mountaineers' 2-2 start?
"I have to change my mentality, if (the players) are going to change their mentality," he said. "I'm going to expect good things to happen. I'm going to be excited about going to practice. I'm going to go out and not be worried about calling the perfect play. If you sit there and worry about calling a different play, then you are going to call a bad one. That mentality needs to go away.
"We practice staying motivated, but we were not the most excited team to play Saturday (against Maryland)," he continued. "Were we prepared to play? Not as well as Maryland. They played with more excitement and with more passion than our guys did. When that happens, that's on me."
But Holgorsen isn't trying to reinvent the wheel — or even the wheel route. He's still confident that his team is just a step away from success, and he's not ready to change his game plan.
"The one thing we are not going to change is how we practice, which works," said Holgorsen. "I feel like we are on track with practice and we are going to get better. It does not look good now. I'm sick to my stomach with what happened offensively Saturday (WVU was shut out for the first time since 2011 and held to just 175 yards of offense), but this week we are trying to get better. Guys need to relax."
In 20-plus years of coaching — six as an offensive coordinator and two as a head coach prior to this season — Holgorsen has never been in this spot. He's had some offenses that were better than others, but he's never had one among the worst in his conference — and definitely not the nation.
Maybe that's why he's so sure things will soon turn in the other directions.
"I've watched that film about eight times," said Holgorsen of the Maryland tape. "Believe it or not, there are some things on that tape that resemble football.
"Our guys are trying. We have talented running backs, and we have experience on the offensive line. We have receivers who can run and catch. If we can get a little better, then we can get some confidence. Then, hopefully it will steamroll, and we can start scoring points and winning games. You have to believe it's going to happen. Otherwise it will not happen."
If WVU hopes to continue its streak of 11 straight bowl appearances, the offense, which has scored just seven points in eight quarters against Football Bowl Subdivision opponents, will have to find its stride quickly. The Cowboys are in Morgantown this weekend, and a trip to No. 19 Baylor looms ahead a week from Saturday.

+ Iannello drops out of commission race
Longboat Key resident Joseph Iannello, who qualified to run against Commissioner Terry Gans for the one-year at-large seat in March last month, notified Town Clerk Trish Granger last week he was withdrawing from the race.
"Regretfully, I would like to inform you that I must withdraw my name as a candidate for Town Commission," wrote Iannello.
Gans is now the only qualified candidate for the one-year at-Large seat.
The deadline to have all paperwork turned in to Town Hall and be qualified for the March 19 election at noon Nov. 19.
+ Spencer resigns from pension board
Longboat Key town employee Donna Spencer has resigned her position on the General Employees Pension Board. Spencer was also the chair of that board.
"Due to personal reasons, I regretfully tender my resignation to the General Employees Retirement System Board of Trustees," Spencer wrote in a Nov. 6 email to fellow and former board members and Town Clerk Trish Granger.
A new board member and a new chair will most likely be appointed at the board's 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 28 quarterly meeting at Town Hall.
+ Corrections
• In a Nov. 8 story about parking enforcement, the Ticket Tally chart should have read that in August there were 193 tickets issued on St. Armands Circle and 1,720 tickets issued citywide. It also should have stated in September there were 131 tickets issued on the Circle.
• In the Nov. 8 "Welcome Back" issue, the Longboat Observer unintentionally omitted the name of Frances Feinberg, 99, of Longboat Key, in its list of residents who died over the summer. Ms. Feinberg was active in the Longboat Harbour Harbourettes and was known for her work with the seashells she collected from the Gulf of Mexico. She died July 12.

Comets use late rally to hold off PH
- Last Updated on 04:15 PM 05/02/13
- BY Joe Chandler
Today marks the annual Senior Night observance for the Halifax County High School baseball team as it looks to continue to stay on a winning note in today's 5 p.m. game here against William Fleming High School
The Comets enter today's Western Valley District contest coming off of a 6-4 win Tuesday over Patrick Henry High School in Roanoke.
Halifax County High School needed a last-inning offensive rally and a big defensive stand in the last inning to edge the Patriots and stay on the outer fringes of the district championship chase.
Tuesday's win allowed the Comets (9-6 overall, 3-2 district) to remain in a deadlock for second place with Franklin County High School in the chase for the Western Valley District regular-season title.
The Patriots took the early lead with a solo homer by Britton Dunnavant, only to see the Comets tie the game with a run in the third inning on a one-out single by Will Harris that plated Ryan Yates.
Patrick Henry High School regained the lead in the bottom of the fourth inning, taking advantage of a single, a wild pitch and a Comets error to score a run and take a 2-1 lead.
Halifax County High School bounced back to grab the lead at 3-2 with a pair of runs in the top of the fifth inning.
Yates, the Comets' leadoff batter, reached base with a double to kick off the inning. Nick Anderson got on base with a walk, and a wild pitch allowed both runners to advance into scoring position. Harris followed with his second straight hit and scored both Yates and Anderson to put the Comets on top.
Halifax County High School extended its lead to 6-2 with three runs in the top of the seventh inning. Harris and Tyler Stephens connected with back-to-back hits with one out and both scored on a double by Patrick Barton.
Barton moved to third base when Tristan Howerton grounded out and scored on a passed ball to give the Comets a four-run cushion.
Patrick Henry High School rocked Comets starting pitcher Seth Elliott early in the bottom of the seventh inning with Dunnavant and Thomas Stockstill kicking off the inning with a single and double respectively. Jacob Wright's one-out double scored both Dunnavant and Stockstill to bring the Patriots to within two runs at 6-4.
Wright's hit proved to be the curtain call for Elliott, who struck out three batters, walked four and allowed seven hits and four runs before exiting the game.
Comets Head Coach Kelvin Davis brought Barton from third base to the mound to close out the game. B
arton responded by striking out the first batter he faced to get the second out of the inning and getting the final PH batter to ground out to second base to end the contest.
Halifax County High School had eight hits in the game, with Harris leading the team with a 3-4 night that included three RBIs. Barton was 2-3 at the plate with two RBIs and Yates was 2-4 at the plate.
Stephens had one hit in the game.
Dunnavant and Stockstill led PH with two hits each.

Collaborate for Healthy Weight
Families, clinicians and the community must work together to promote healthy weight. Health disparity continues to be an issue when talking about healthy weight; disadvantaged and underserved communities are especially affected. Addressing this issue will require a concerted policy and programmatic response across all sectors of society, using all available levers for affecting population health. We realize there is an extensive amount of work being done to promote healthy weight and behavior change but there is still a lot of work to do. NICHQ is committed to utilizing and expanding upon the current work being done by other organizations.
Building on nearly a decade of quality improvement work in this field, NICHQ, in partnership with the Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) and with a Consortium of organizations and individuals, is establishing a national center to focus on Healthy Weight. There will be two core activities of Collaborate for Healthy Weight. The first is to create a resource hub for information and activities designed to meet the healthy weight challenge -- a place for practice sharing, quality improvement training and general exchange of information. The second core activity for Collaborate for Healthy Weight is to organize and manage a nationwide Healthy Weight Collaborative (HWC), in which fifty trans-sectoral teams from around the country will identify, test and implement program and policy changes in their communities to achieve local healthy weight objectives. The work of these teams will continually inform and enhance the knowledge disseminated through Collaborate for Healthy Weight.
The HWC will build on the Breakthrough Series methodology, a proven approach for rapidly spreading successful changes pioneered by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI). A web portal will facilitate communication within and between teams, as well as provide a vehicle to report and share data about progress. Teams will meet together, either face-to-face or virtually, three times each year, and will receive support from regional technical assistance teams as well as from national faculty with expertise in prevention and treatment of obesity and improvement science. Areas of the web site will be accessible to the general public, with information, tools and resources to help communities and families maintain or achieve a healthy weight. For more information about the work NICHQ is doing visit http://www.collaborateforhealthyweight.org.
The aim of the HWC is to establish productive partnerships between health care, public health and community-based organizations. This will form the basis for sustainable, positive community, environmental, and individual health behavior change ultimately promoting healthy weight and health equity.
NICHQ will lead the program in collaboration with the following expert partners: the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), the Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs (AMCHP), CSI Solutions, the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), Maine Medical Center/Let's Go!: Maine Medical Center (MMC), National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), and Nemours.

'If my children were there, I'd ask them to come home'
Dr. Michael Allen, who earlier this week provided his insights about some of the worst things that could come out of the nuclear crisis in Japan, said Friday it was difficult to be optimistic about the latest news from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. Allen is vice provost for research and dean of graduate studies at Middle Tennessee State University, but he spent much of his early career at Sandia National Labs studying nuclear reactor accidents of the worst kind and performing simulations to better understand how bad things happen -- including core meltdowns.
The key to success in Japan will be getting water back into the spent nuclear fuel pools at the reactors at Daiichi, Allen said. Until then, the radiation fields will probably be too high to combat the other issues at the nuclear complex, he said.
There's no clear evidence at this stage that the utility company is really getting control of the situation, he said.
Allen said there are real issues about the fuel assemblies hanging in the pools that may have been cracked (by the earthquake) and drained or otherwise compromised by hydrogen explosions that have knocked off the roofs at the reactors' containment structures.
If those pools are dry or are not replenished with water, that will expose the zirconium-clad fuel assemblies stored there and eventually generate fires and the further distribution of radionuclides and make it even more difficult -- if not impossible -- for workers to improve conditions at the site because of the radiation.
Since the initial news report, which quoted him on the situation in Japan, Allen said he had received many emails and inquiries from people wanting information or asking how to react in the current situation. That included questions from parents whose children are studying in Japan.
"I give them my best technical judgment," Allen said, when asked what he tells those who ask. "If they're 600 miles away (from the reactor site, as was the case in one of the inquiries), they're not going to get a big radiation dose. It'll fall out . . . But, you know, if my children were there, I'd ask them to come home."
Allen said the radiation levels may not be a factor at various locations in Japan, but he said he's concerned that if the nuclear emergency worsens, that could have additional impacts on the country's infrastructure, etc. It's just not a good situation at this time, he said.

Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — That quip about a priest driving the Cadillac with the stained-glassed windows is not all that unrealistic, if you believe the story unraveling at St. John's University in New York City.
At the center of the controversy is Cecilia Chang, the disgraced former dean of the Institute of Asian Studies at St. John's. She has been on trial for allegedly embezzling from the university and forcing students on scholarship to work as her personal servants.
Embroiled in this high-profile campus scandal at the nation's largest Catholic university is the Rev. Donald J. Harrington, C.M., the president of St. John's. Harrington was president of Niagara University from 1984 until 1989 when he assumed the downstate post in Queens.
During the recent federal trial in New York City, Harrington testified that he had limited interaction with Chang — meeting with her two or three times a year — and he had indeed addressed her handling of the university finances. The priest said he did accompany Chang and other St. John's staff members to Asia. He also told the court that they stayed at five-star hotels and received gifts from potential donors.
Harrington said: "I wasn't real comfortable, being who I am" with the perks and only accepted them on Chang's recommendations. He was told it was important to stay at that hotel because it would impact on the image of St. John's as a first-class university. "I didn't fight that," he told the prosecutors.
Why was it important that Harrington accept the gifts? "If you did not take them, it was a sign of a lack of respect," the priest said Chang told him. Apparently Chang's gift-giving was frequent, according to a report in the Torch, the award-winning St. John's campus newspaper.
It wasn't long after Harrington left Monteagle Ridge and arrived at his new assignment that he met Chang for the first time. It was disclosed in court that she presented him with a gift-wrapped box filled with money. 'It was 100 dollar bills and I just didn't feel real comfortable with that now," the priest said. When he returned the gift to Chang, she became upset, somewhat emotional and even appeared embarrassed, he recalled.
Harrington said he kept declining her monetary gifts until she lableled them as money to be given to the poor. He told the court that he then accepted those contributions as a priest and distributed them accordingly.
OUT OF TOUCH: Why in the world did Mayor Michael Bloomberg insist that the New York Marathon go on as scheduled while much of that city was virtually paralyzed from Hurricane Sandy? Fortunately, wiser minds prevailed Friday and the event was cancelled.
Bloomberg's insensitive and bullheaded actions left countless marathon runners holding the bag. Instead of cancelling it days ago, he let the decision hang until many of the would-be race entrants (a number from Western New York) had gone to tremendous expense to reach the Big Apple. One young man from Europe said Saturday he had invested nearly $6,000 to make the trip.
IN THE SPOTLIGHT: Niagara Falls native Tom ("Sully") Sullivan, an artist, sailor and adventurer, who has divided his time in recent years between Youngstown and Ireland, has an exhibit of his works at the Dana Tillou Fine Arts Gallery, 417 Franklin St., Buffalo. It includes impressive scenes such "Working Waterfront, Buffalo"; "Steamer, Lower Niagara, Lewiston," part of the storied fleet that operated across Lake Ontario to Toronto; and numerous scenes from Maine, where Sully has spent many days. The exhibit will be open Wednesday through Friday, 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday (the closing day) 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
NO TURKEY: Many Youngstown area residents will be disappointed this Election Day because the popular turkey dinner will not be available at the First Presbyterian Church. In recent years the event was drawing upwards of 400 people. A spokesman said it simply became just too much work for the dedicated volunteers.
END OF THE LINE: Simon's Restaurant on Bridge Street, Niagara Falls, Ont., a short walk from the Whirlpool Rapids Bridge, is up for sale. Pat Simon, 82, and his wife, Rose, have owned and operated the popular spot for more than 50 years. The Niagara Falls, Ont., Review reported Saturday that the Simons are also selling their home behind the restaurant. The asking price for both properties: $299,900.
Simon is the brother of the late John V. Simon of Lewiston, a longtime attorney in Niagara County.Contact reporter Don Glynn at 282-2311, ext. 2246

Martin Esslin
|Martin Esslin
|Julius Pereszlényi
Hungarian: Pereszlényi Gyula Márton
June 6, 1918
Budapest, Austria-Hungary
|February 24, 2002
(aged 83)
London, United Kingdom
|University of Vienna
Reinhardt Seminar
|Theatre Critic and Scholar
|Notable work(s)
|The Theatre of the Absurd
Martin Julius Esslin OBE (6 June 1918 – 24 February 2002) was a Hungarian-born English producer and playwright dramatist, journalist, adaptor and translator, critic, academic scholar and professor of drama best known for coining the term "Theatre of the Absurd" in his work of that name (1961). This book has been called "the most influential theatrical text of the 1960s."[1]
Life and Work[edit]
Born Julius Pereszlényi (Hungarian: Pereszlényi Gyula Márton) in Budapest, Esslin moved to Vienna with his family at a young age. He studied Philosophy and English at the University of Vienna and also graduated from the Reinhardt Seminar as a producer. Of Jewish descent, he fled Austria in the wake of the Anschluss of 1938.
Esslin defined the 'Theatre of the Absurd' as that which
|The Theatre of the Absurd strives to express its sense of the senselessness of the human condition and the inadequacy of the rational approach by the open abandonment of rational devices and discursive thought.
Esslin's definition encompassed not only Beckett's works but those of Sławomir Mrożek, Eugène Ionesco, Harold Pinter, Jean Genet, Günter Grass and Edward Albee amongst others.
The attribute of "absurdity" was not accepted by many of the playwrights associated with this trend. Ionesco said he did not like labels.[2] Ahmad Kamyabi Mask criticized Esslin severely for the colonialist quality of this title for the Avant-garde theater.[3][4]
He began working for the BBC in 1940, serving as a producer, script writer and broadcaster. He was head of BBC Radio Drama 1963-77, having previously worked for the external European Service. After leaving the BBC he held senior academic posts at Florida State and Stanford Universities.
He also adapted and translated many works from the original German, for example many plays of Wolfgang Bauer between 1967 and 1990. Original works included the seminal Theatre of the Absurd, and The Field of Drama.
Esslin died in London on February 24, 2002 after a long battle with Parkinson's disease.[5]

These two prestigious awards, which will be given in November, are recognition of the work Frank has done as one of the few openly gay LGBTI activists in a dangerously hostile climate. As a spokesperson for the movement, he amplifies the voice of one of the most vulnerable groups in the country.
Homosexuality is a criminal offence in Uganda, and the proposed Anti-Homosexuality Bill would make homosexual activities punishable by life in prison, and, in certain cases, by death. In January 2011 David Kato, a former advocacy and litigation officer for SMUG, was murdered. It is believed that Kato was targeted for his role in the Ugandan LGBTI movement.
"For me, it is about standing out and speaking in an environment where you are not sure if you will survive the next day; it is this fear that makes me strong, to work hard and fight on to see a better life for LGBTI persons in Uganda," said Frank. "The Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award and Rafto Prize give me courage and hope that my work, which may not be accepted and recognized in my own country, is making a change with this international visibility."
"Frank Mugisha has fought courageously in support of the rights of sexual minorities in Uganda, despite death threats and even exile," said Kerry Kennedy, president of the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights. "He has become a leading advocate for sexual minorities in a country where they are persecuted, jailed, and their lives destroyed."
SMUG works with Community Health Alliance Uganda, who are supported by
the Alliance and Frank visited the UK secretariat office in May this
year. You can read more about Frank and the work of SMUG in this 'Postcard from the Field' on DFID's website.
The Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award honours courageous and innovative individuals striving for social justice throughout the world. Each year, the RFK Center awards an individual whose courageous activism is at the heart of the human rights movement and in the spirit of Robert Kennedy.
The Rafto Prize for Human Rights is awarded annually to advocates of human rights and democracy. The prize commemorates Thorolf Rafto, professor of economic history at the Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration in Bergen. Professor Rafto devoted his life to promoting democracy and respect for human rights.

Lessons from SNL - Part 3
Last week, because of what I perceived as a particularly flawed episode of Saturday Night Live which starred Justin Bieber, I started what has (surprise, surprise) turned into a rather long discussion of the lessons internal audit can learn from that show. Last Monday we talked about how progress comes in fits and starts, and everyone has to take responsibility for pushing past the slow times to ensure overall progress. On Tuesday, we talked about the impact of trying to do too much with too little, and how it can degrade the department. Today we are going to move on to a discussion of how chasing the latest fads can negatively impact risk and audit planning.
This isn't the first time SNL has jumped on a popularity bandwagon to its own detriment. Let's face it – the process of finding guest hosts for the show is not about ensuring the finest talent, it is about how many eyeballs will come running to the television screen.

A lot of Plushenko's high scores came from delivering the program with confidence, and whether you agree or not, expressing the music. He did have exciting footwork. He was no Takahashi in that area, but still pretty good.
I am glad that transitions are getting credit now, but when a skater falls due to transitions, that's not worthy of high marks.
7.50 7.50 5.00 8.00 7.50 7.75 5.00 6.00
and in the long:
8.75 6.00 8.00 8.75 6.00 6.50 7.25 7.25
Oda, who was fourth in the short, also got a 5. So no, those marks "weren't seen again until below 20th place". And several other skaters in the Top 10 also got 6s, 7.5, and 8s.
You should never write words with numbers. Unless you're seven. Or your name is Prince. - "Weird Al" Yankovic, "Word Crimes"
Plushy is entitled to voice his opinion, just as Chan has on many occasions on a variety of subjects. A controversial win is going to spark a lot of debate; it's par for the course.

*sigh* So, Plushenko offers a common opinion, speaks of something that apparently ~should not be spoken of~ (the politiking), and of course, he's the big bad evil villain.
Oh, and we're back to Vancouver. He's over it, so can everyone else be, please?
You should never write words with numbers. Unless you're seven. Or your name is Prince. - "Weird Al" Yankovic, "Word Crimes"
That does not compare to plushenkos two 5.00's. Only one in the top 20 to get that. Plushenko wishes he got odas transition score.
Plushenko's just preparing the groundwork for the whining when he doesn't win the OGM in Sochi.
"Nature is a damp, inconvenient sort of place where birds and animals wander about uncooked."
from Speedy Death
Plushenko scored 90.82 in the short program in Vancouver. Exactly how much higher do the Plushenko ubers think he should have been scored? His scores for transitions are in line with what he presented in the program that night. He admitted himself after 2010 Euros that he did not have transitions in his program, because he was all about the jumps. How anyone can argue that he was overscored in Vancouver is beyond me.
That said, I agree with him, Denis Ten should have won Worlds last week. My thoughts, since Friday night, have been that if Patrick Chan skates this messily in Sochi and defeats a clean Plushenko for gold; then the Russian Olympic Committee and the Russian Skating federation are going to raise absolute hell over the results.
Patrick frankly needs a jump coach, and he needs to pace himself next season so he does not peak at Canadian Nationals as it seems to me he typically does.
'Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.'--John Wayne
The judges were supposed to be judging what was on the ice and he was the only one in the top 20 to get 2 5.00 's. He brought Joubert into his comment and Joubert didn't get two 5.00. Plushenko was underscored in the way that judges went out of their way to go under the corridor they set for him to give him 2 5.00's and one 6.00. acting like Oda was treated the same way but that's wrong. 7 plus was seen as right for plushenko based on what he did and not a comment from january. Actually arguing that a comment from euros was right criteria to judge plushenko in Vancouver is not acceptable to me.
My point in bringing up Plushenko's post-Euros remarks is to say he is the one who brought major attention to the fact that he did not have transitions in his programs. The the two 5.00's and the 6.00 are proof that those judges were judging what was happening on the ice in Vancouver.
'Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.'--John Wayne
You should never write words with numbers. Unless you're seven. Or your name is Prince. - "Weird Al" Yankovic, "Word Crimes"
He accomplished his purpose. We're all talking about him, which no-one did during the actual competition. Score 1 for Plushenko.
