My wife and I are currently debating whether or not we should use a child harness (aka leash). It'd be great to take our son to the park and let him walk around on his own without having to chase him everywhere. However, I've always been against the idea of putting a leash on my child though now as a parent I understand why one would want to. Would love to know what others think, pros and cons to using one, and possible recommendations if we do decide to use one.
I bought one for my son when he was about 18 months old and wanted to walk everywhere, but everywhere literally meant EVERYWHERE.
Honestly, we only used it maybe 10 times. It wasn't that our son minded wearing it, we just didn't use it as much as we thought we would--mostly because kids that age generally don't really get that far away from you even if they do sort of wander off. Our daughter is now around that same age and we haven't even bothered--whenever we take her somewhere like a park, we allow her some space and stay within about 2-3 feet of her. If she's climbing on a play structure we stay closer in case she takes a nosedive.
If we were to go to an amusement park or something like that, I can see the benefits of the leash being greater because it is so easy to lose your kid in places like Disney even if they only get a few feet away from you, but for day-to-day stuff we didn't find it incredibly useful.
Yes, use a harness
We bought one that looks like a cool kids backpack but has a 3 foot long cord. The children love wearing it as we put their toys/comforter, some fruit and a drink inside. We use it every time we go out walking near roads or area where we need to be sure they won't run off. It has prevented them running in front of cars at least three times (particularly in car parking areas) and also stopped them hitting their head on hard ground when they fell as I used the cord to lower them slowly.
When your children are able to understand not to run off or towards traffic, you can reduce the use.
Some people think it is cruel. I wouldn't know - but my children have not been hit by cars, still have all their teeth and no scars on their faces.
When children start walking - and for the next year or so - they have an unhealthy attraction to the road. Your child's safety is far more important than the looks you'll get from bleeding-heart, childless know-it-alls, so I would say yes, get a harness.
You can get a harness with a soft animal toy build into it, so it looks like a cute little animal is hitching a ride. Our son quite liked it. It seems to change other people's perception from "isn't that cruel" to "isn't that cute".
Think of the harness in the same way as training wheels for a bike. You use it to teach a toddler to walk on paths and only cross the road when it's safe. You won't need it for long because from about 18 months onwards they're quite happy to hold your hand.
We used one a fair bit at that middle toddler stage with all three of our kids - when shopping, at festivals, anywhere crowded or when walking near busy roads it helped us in three ways:
and most importantly
We used one of these cute monkey harness/backpacks a few times and it was great. We used it in very crowded venues (summer fairs, aquariums) where our daughter wanted to run everywhere and look at everything. It took the stress right out of those events, knowing that she was right there. Not only did we not get any funny looks, other people were clearly interested in getting the same thing.

IUPUI Shuts Out Valpo in Mid-Con Opener
Sunday, September 19, 2004IUPUI came into Eastgate Field on Sunday afternoon and defeated Valparaiso 2-0 in the Mid-Continent Conference opener for each school.
The Jaguars jumped in front at the 32:08 mark as Maggie Mistovich headed home a Sarah Leonard cross in the box for her second marker of the year. Angie Pilat added an insurance goal for IUPUI at 60:44 as she took a pass from Sheri Levack and scored on a two-on-one for her fourth tally of the campaign.
Valparaiso outshot the Jaguars 14-11 for the match and had several opportunities, but Jessie Mann made five saves in goal for the Jaguars. Erin Murray (Pleasanton, Calif./Amador Valley H.S.) made three saves for the Crusaders, while Emily King (Colona, Ill./United Township H.S.) made a sliding stop in the corner of the goal early in the first half to prevent another IUPUI goal.
Valpo held a 6-3 advantage on corner kicks won while IUPUI (5-3, 1-0 Mid-Con) committed 19 fouls to Valpo's 12.
Valparaiso (2-4-1, 0-1) will return to action next Sunday as the Crusaders host Cleveland State in a 1 p.m. match.

Rumor: Infamous: Second Son getting multiplayerby Steve Watts, Jun 18, 2013 8:05am PDT
Infamous: Second Son is starring a brand new protagonist, but that's not the only change coming to the franchise for its first PlayStation 4 outing. A brochure implies that the game may get some form of multiplayer mode, which if true, would be a series first.
Videogamer reports that a PlayStation 4 brochure offline single-player, and then "online players TBC" (aka "To Be Confirmed"). Other single-player games in the brochure, like Knack, reportedly don't include such a listing. That indicates that the wording was slipped into the Second Son entry for a reason.
This is speculative for the time being, and Shacknews has contacted Sony to confirm. We'll update as more information becomes available.

Generate Embeddable Galleries with Weblery
Productivity Sauce
There are quite a few open source solutions for creating standalone photo galleries, but what if you need to embed a handful of photos into a web page or a blog post? Weblery can help you with that. This relatively simple PHP-based software lets you set up a no-frills web-based gallery and embed it into a web page using a single line of code. Better yet, Weblery requires no database back end, so it's easy to deploy and maintain. To run Weblery on your server you need only two things: the Apache web server and PHP4 or PHP5 with the PHP GD extension.
To install Weblery, grab the latest version of the application from the project's website, unpack the downloaded archive, and move the resulting directory to the document root of your web server. Make the assets/album_cache directory writable by the server using the following command:
chown -R www-data:www-data assets/album_cache
To check whether everything works properly, point your browser to http://127.0.0.1/weblery/demo.php (replace 127.0.0.1 with the actual IP address or domain name of your server) and you should see a sample gallery.
Populating Weblery with photos couldn't be easier: just add photos to the albums directory and group them into folders, if necessary. Embedding a Weblery gallery into a web page is not difficult either: simply add the following line in the page where you want the gallery to appear:
<?php require_once('weblery.php'); ?>
In case your server runs PHP4, the embed code should be as follows:
<?php require_once('webleryphp4.php'); ?>
The configuration.php file offers a handful of options for your tweaking pleasure. All options in the file are commented, so you shouldn't have problems figuring what they do. Moreover, Weblery is supplied with a decent manual which can help you to get the most out of this excellent application.comments powered by Disqus

Belize River Lodge is now operating a second location on Long Caye in Central Belize, a great locations that caters to anglers & non-angling guests as well. Now called the "Belize River Lodge - Long Caye Island Resort," this offerings has most of the amenities that Belize River Lodge has always been known for, along with excellent service, comfortable accommodations, and tasty cuisine, all situated on a beautiful, idyllic island. BRL's Island Resort sits on the front of Long Caye overlooking Belize's Barrier Reef and offering spectacular views of the blue-green waters of the Caribbean Sea. Long Caye's neighbor - Caye Chapel - is less than a 10-minute boat ride from St. George's Caye and about 20 minutes from Caye Caulker. The small and intimate Long Caye Island Resort provides the perfect get-away-from-it-all location as well as immediate access to some of the best tarpon, permit and bonefishing in all of Belize.
The average package is a one week (six fishing days / seven nights) package, although trips and itineraries of any length can be accommodated. You can arrive or depart any day of the week, as the Island Resort has no pre-set arrival or departure days. Combination trips between Belize River Lodge and the Long Caye Island Resort will also allow guests to experience the varied fisheries in central Belize. Yellow Dog will work with you to fully understand the two different lodge settings, their respective fisheries, and how to divide your time between the two destinations based on what you are looking for, what species you want to focus on, and more.
Located on a small island of 40 acres, the Island Resort is built on a small beach that is surrounded by palm trees and mangroves. There are a few lobster shacks and a tiny settlement within 40 minutes of the lodge, but other than that, you will have the island to yourself. Belize City is just over an hour run by boat. This property has been in the Belize River Lodge family for years, but until recently it was only a family vacation spot. A recent renovation to the property, the addition of a generator, and more outbuildings for staff have now opened up this unique and remote destination for all anglers. All of the action takes place in the main, two-story cottage that features three double occupancy bedrooms, a dining area, a common-area sitting space, and a nice front deck overlooking the beach, volleyball court, palm trees, and the home flat. The rooms have plenty of space for gear, the beds are comfortable, and the ceiling fans and screened windows allow for great ventilation. There is one bathroom for the three rooms that is shared by all guests.
The original Belize River Lodge - in business for over 60 years - has always been very well known for their Belizean hospitality and their delicious Belizean Creole cuisine. The same wonderful Belize River Lodge cooks will be preparing your meals at the Island Resort, so you can expect a delicious variety of meals to be served daily. Please let us know of any dietary needs beforehand and we will be happy to accommodate you during your visit.
The incredibly productive flats system that surrounds Long Caye is a long run from many of the main fishing operations in this area. Staying on Long Caye, however, allows anglers quick and easy access to this expansive fishery. Typical runs to the flats and the more productive fishing areas are 10-15 minutes, which means that you can easily fish earlier in the morning and then come back to the lodge for lunch. In this particular area of Belize, you will find a complex system of islands, grass and sand flats - all located only a few minutes from the Barrier Reef. Bonefish within this ecosystem average from two to three pounds, with larger fish found on a regular basis throughout the year. Long Caye is known as one of the most productive tarpon fisheries in this part of the Caribbean, and the area is home to resident fish that range in size from 20 to over 150 pounds. We love the permit fishing in this area as well, and feel that Long Caye is home to some of the largest permit in all of Belize. The home flats of the lodge are close to the reef and deeper water, where permit spend much of their time.
Bonefish are common on the area's unpressured flats systems, most of which are located within 15 minutes of the lodge. The lodge flats hold good numbers of bonefish, which means that your fishing day does need to end when the guided day is finished. Permit also frequent these flats and area found throughout this area. The lodge's prime location allows the guides to fish a wide range of permit scenarios, thus increasing your odds at finding the fish during different weather systems. The numerous islands in this immediate area also enable the guides to position you on the lee sides of these land masses during difficult, windy weather, allowing you to cast out of the wind as much as possible. When conditions are suitable, you will find permit cruising the deeper flats and tailing around the reef, shorelines and flats. A wide range of tarpon in all sizes can visually be targeted on the flats around the lodge, and there are also numerous tarpon holes and creeks where anglers can blind cast with intermediate sinking lines. This is one of the finest destinations for targeting permit and tarpon and the professional and experienced guide staff knows these waters very well. (Again, Belize River Lodge has been guiding these waters for 50 years!)
Anglers fish from 23-foot pangas (flats skiffs) either one or two-to-a-boat. Each panga is equipped with a poling platform, a removable lean-bar (casting brace) on the bow, rod holders, and a newer outboard engine. All of the lodge guides are Belizeans who know the area waters well. The guides are friendly, talented, hard working, patient, and very capable of offering instruction, whether you are a fly caster or spin fisherman. It is recommended that anglers bring their own rods, reels, lines, flies, and all terminal tackle.
Belize River Lodge has a good selection of Sage and Winston fly rod and reel outfitts for rent ($20 per day) as well as a fantastic selection of appropriate flies, fly lines, and leaders. BRL can arrange to have gear for you at the Long Caye Island Resort. Please inquire with Yellow Dog about reserving some gear for your trip to the Resort, if you would rather not travel with your own.
This is a quiet and remote destination surrounded by a pristine tropical setting. The staff can arrange for nature based non-angling activities like snorkeling, beach combing, wildlife viewing, and eco-tours. The lodge's sandy beach has several beach chairs, hammocks, a volleyball court, and plenty of shade from the mature palm trees, making this a great "base camp" for those seeking a private experience and a "make-your-own-fun" type of fly fishing vacation. This is a good destination for families if the kids are older and like to explore the beaches and ocean. The beach consists of a gradual shelf leading down to a flat, so it is fairly shallow and made up mostly of turtle grass. There are no shopping opportunities or tourist hubs anywhere near this island.
International flights to Belize (BZE) go through Miami, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta and Charlotte. The major airlines that service Belize are American Airlines, Continental / United, US Air, Delta, and Taca.
The close proximity of Belize River Lodge (mainland operation) to the International Airport means that you can arrive into Belize at any time of the day and easily transfer to the lodge without worrying about additional in-country flights and further travel time. If you are heading directly to the Outpost you will sign in at the mainland lodge (Belize River Lodge), get your Belize fishing license, and take a panga directly to the Resort on Long Caye. If you are overnighting and / or fishing for a few days at Belize River Lodge, you may leave some of your gear and clothing at the main lodge while fishing the Long Caye Resort for a portion of your trip. This makes for less hassle and lighter packing when heading out to Long Caye.
All prices are per person. A package of any length of stay can be arranged. Please call Yellow Dog for custom package pricing. *These rates are effective January 1, 2012 - December 31, 2012

Contact us at 888-777-5060 or firstname.lastname@example.com for more details on airfare ticketing, travel services and trip insurance..
As with fishing from the main Lodge, Belize River Lodge guides fish long hours. Since the Island Resort sits in some of Belize's best fishing waters, you have a choice each day to fish early and/or fish late. You can start off early, come back to the Island for lunch or "slack tides", take a "siesta", then fish late into the evening and come back to the island at the end of your fishing day. Or, you can leave after breakfast, take a packed lunch, and fish all day, then come back to the island in the late afternoon. Either choice ends after a long day of fishing. Enjoy the evenings as you watch the stunning beauty of a sunset while enjoying appetizers in an extremely beautiful setting.

If you're the parents and grandparents who have been calling for an action-adventure movie for your fourth- through eighth-graders that isn't horribly bloody, profane or sexed up, it's time to put your money where your mouth is.
"Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters," based on the book series by Rick Riordan, may not be quite as good as the Harry Potter series, but it is certainly aiming at the same core audience — and should do OK at snagging a good portion of it.
Magical powers; strange creatures from Greek mythology like centaurs, satyrs and cyclops; demigod children (think half-Muggle); and perilous journeys mean there are many Potter parallels to be found here.
And the good guys, all back for this sequel to 2010's "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief," are appealing, clean-cut young actors. As Percy, son of sea god Poseidon, Logan Lerman ("The Perks of Being a Wallflower") is the boy next door every mom wishes her daughter would date — plucky, humble, self-sacrificing, kind.
His sidekicks are Annabeth (Alexandra Daddario), daughter of Athena, and the satyr Grover (Brandon T. Jackson), both loyal and true.
Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters
Quality: Three stars (out of four)
Director: Thor Freudenthal
Stars: Logan Lerman, Alexandra Daddario, Brandon T. Jackson, Stanley Tucci, Nathan Fillion
Rating: PG for fantasy action violence, scary images, mild language
Running time: 1 hour, 46 minutes
Theaters: Aksaraben, Twin Creek, Bluffs 17, Midtown, Regal, Westroads, Majestic, Village Pointe, Oak View

On Sunday, Sparks Police Department patrol officers found a 1995 White Jeep Grand Cherokee that had been reported stolen. The suspect in that case, Joshua Newport, 37, was reported to be armed. Newport was still at large, having previously been the suspect in an SPD SWAT call with an active warrant out for his arrest and wanted by the Nevada Department of Parole and Probation. Officers had just set up a perimeter on the parking garage at John Ascuaga's Nugget when officers saw the white Jeep Cherokee exit the garage.
Several officers attempted to stop the Jeep when Newport began to flee. Newport lost control of the Jeep at Victorian Plaza Circle and Victorian Avenue. It appears that Newport tried to steer the Jeep into a marked police patrol vehicle while the officer was trying to exit the driver's side. The Jeep struck the patrol vehicle in the front end, knocking the officer to the ground. Newport then tried to flee on foot but officers chased him down and took him into custody.
The officer struck by Newport received very minor injuries and was later treated and released from Northern Nevada Medical Center. Newport suffered minor injuries in the crash and was transported to Renown Medical Center by REMSA. Newport will be booked into the Washoe County jail upon his release on the parole department warrant, as well as battery with a deadly weapon, DUI drugs, eluding and possession of a stolen motor vehicle.
Anyone with information about this case is asked to contact the Sparks Police Department.

Troubles plaguing travel—the war with Iraq and fears about severe acute respiratory syndrome—didn't keep many from the third annual Affordable Meetings Mid-America, which took place April 1 to 4 at Chicago's Navy Pier.
The show, which features educational programming bookending an exposition, is free for meeting planners. Attendance was down a bit, but not by much. Preliminary estimates place 934 meeting planners at the event, with 341 expo booths—about 650 exhibit personnel. Last year's event drew 1,025 meeting planners, a difference of about 9 percent. The drop was attributed more to the economy than anything else.
"The Show was not dramatically affected by the war," says Lori Robinson, group manager, George Little Management Inc., White Plains, NY. "Meeting planners understand the importance of focusing on business and moving forward with business during these times."
If the war had any impact on the show, it was in registration timing. Show management noted that pre-registration numbers were down until right before the show—and into the first days of the war—and then picked up steadily, daily, to anticipated numbers, suggesting that ambiguity about what the U.S. would do in Iraq and when, along with its impact stateside, kept many waiting to sign up. Even the trend towards short-term booking and weekly or daily managing of the books may have kept attendees holding off.
Also, the show's regional appeal, along with its free registration for meeting planners, probably kept numbers up. Planners praised the educational content, and a number of the seminars were standing room only. Topics ranged from the nitty-gritty, such as contract negotiation, to the important but lighthearted, such as ways to battle procrastination.

Eight-ball theft leads to chargeFebruary 22,2013NY man allegedly
stole an eight-ball
KILLINGTON A New York man who allegedly punched out a pool table light and then walked out of a bar with the eight-ball in his pocket will face a pair of misdemeanor offenses next month, according to Vermont State Police.
Troopers were called to Jax Bar on Killington Road just before 1 a.m. Wednesday for a report of a disorderly patron who left the bar on foot.
Using a description of the individual, police stopped Marc E. Dileone, 28, of Centereach, N.Y., while he was walking down the road.
Dileone was arrested and taken to the state police barracks in Rutland where he was charged with unlawful mischief and petty larceny. He was released on a citation to appear in Rutland criminal court next month.MORE IN This Just InTODAY'S WEATHER MINUTE: Soil beneath Greenland ice sheet predates dawn of mankind, Hitch faces true Hollawood problem head-on, Mark Twain on school boards, all in today's minute. 0Rutland Herald content editor Rich Alcott shares local weather information and easily digestible...

Assessing the Common Core Standards: Real Life MathematicsJune 28, 2011 | Andrew Miller
Another buzzword that permeates the conversation around education is relevancy, and rightfully so. We want our students not only to make connections to real-world problems but also to do these activities.
However, it is not simply in the task that we want students to mimic real world connections. Students are already conditioned to do this. They are used to sitting and completing tasks. Even when the task might have great connection to the real world, it can still just be that: a task to complete. We need to keep this in mind when we ask students to perform real world math, just as the Math Common Core dictates.
Taking a Closer Look
The following Common Core standard gives a great example and sets a solid tone for what can be targeted in math instruction:
In a previous blog discussing Math PBL Project Design, I wrote about reframing the word "problem," and pointed to this standard. For many of us, there is a very traditional meaning that is activated: a word problem in the text book, or simply a calculation to be made. In fact, the Common Core gives it as an example.
We can do better. We can assess learning in a much more relevant and engaging way. For instance, how do we assess this Common Core standard related to area and volume?
This standard is much less specific about what this might "look like" in the classroom, which leaves it ripe for innovation. There are a variety of products and contexts that could assess this standard. The major assessment, or culminating product in PBL terms, could take on the form of a podcast, presentation, marketing plan, or even a short story.
Other ways to assess this standard in imaginative, real-world scenarios:
- High school students are creating a swimming pool that can meet the needs of all people who want to use it -- from those who have special needs to children -- and at the same time needs, it meets certain criteria in terms of standard amounts of water and size.
- Middle school students are in charge of designing a new and improved pyramid to be presented to the pharaoh, complete with a variety of antechambers.
- Elementary students are in charge of creating an organic garden to sell certain products at the local farmer's market.
Criteria and Rubrics
A word of caution, don't give students the exact criteria, instead make them research and make decisions on what the criteria should be.) Again the genre is not as important as the rubric that demands specific criteria. As long as the rubric is clear and transparent where students must demonstrate math skills, include examples, etc., then we know that students are in fact learning and applying the Common Core standard.
If you as the teacher need a specific graph, then make sure to include in the rubric. If you need written explanation around the mathematical calculations, then demand it. If you need diagrams and measurements, then make sure the rubric demands it. Grading is not a surprise anymore. It is clear and transparent.
When looking at the potential for work with this Math Common core, make sure you have high expectations for the level of work your students can do. The old definition of the word "problem" is not rigorous. Redefining the word "problem" within the frame of Problem or Project-Based Learning is rigorous, and still demands real world connections in an authentic way.
If we want our students to really wrestle with math concepts, then we must create space for this work to happen, and create assessments that mirror this complex work.

Call me old school, I do not
Call me old school, I do not agree with a pure PBL approach. There is nothing wrong with abstract thinking and learning. A "non real world math problem" IS a problem to be solved. Is a made up salary computation problem more "real" than a abstract algebra problem? I am not sure. By all means mix the two approaches. But to say that kids can only learn if it "feel real" is not giving young minds credit.
Help with creating authentic real-world products.
I was committed to making changes in my geometry classroom during the past school year and I certainly had a lot of ups and downs! I focused on creating a student-centered learning environment rather than teacher-centered.
Instead of giving paper-and-pencil assessments for the last few topics I created a rubric requiring students to create a digital product. As you suggested in your post I did not tell them what their product needed to look like, but did tell them what they were required to include in their work such as at least 3 different geometric figures one of which needed to be a regular polygon with more than four sides and to provide calculations for determining the geometric probability of landing within a certain area. The rubric clearly stated what they needed to incorporate into their product to earn a perfect score.
Since this was the first time I assigned this assessment I did not have any exemplars but many of the groups produced some very interesting products. They were understandably concerned about how they were going to be graded because they had not been asked to do anything like this in any of their previous math classes.
Some students were very needy and kept trying to get me to "tell" them what I wanted them to do, they did not like the lack of structure since they were not given step-by-step directions.
The one aspect I could not find a way to incorporate into this assessment was an authentic real world connection. Do you have any suggestions for an authentic real-world product incorporating geometric probability for area or volume, that is something other than concentric circles?
I have found
I have found http://www.worldwithoutoil.org is another real world application of problem solving along with google research tools.
I agree with you about the
I agree with you about the word "problem". Most of the so-called "problems" in math are actually just exercises: Teacher models some procedure, they do a few examples together as a class, students try a few independently in class and then do a few more for homework. There is nothing wrong with spending some of the time in math class doing exercises, but students will never learn to THINK (mathematically or otherwise) unless they spend time actually practicing thinking. Having them solve actual PROBLEMS--where they have to figure out how to get a solution (and even what information they need) is an excellent way not only to get them to think but also to get them engaged.

I worked at Kimberly-Clark full-time for less than a year
Pros – Awesome co-workers, very fair pay, the hours were very flexible and good, self-paced work without high pressure deadlines or goals
Cons – Constant fear of losing your job, no communication from management whatsoever. If you suck up to the people in charge, you will be kept. If you don't, or if you dare to ask any questions, they will find a reason to replace you. They do not hire directly, they prefer to use temp agencies. You are a body to them, not an actual person.
Advice to Senior Management – Communicate with your employees. They are the face of your company. Put some time into them and find out what is going on in the front lines.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Rayson equaled NIU's Aaric Armstead with a game-high 19 points, leading CMU in scoring for the second consecutive game. Stewart was nearly perfect for the game, shooting 5-of-6 from the field and 5-of-7 from the free throw line, to post 16 points to go along with a team-high six rebounds.
Chris Fowler added 15 points and eight assists and with three steals, giving him 51 for the year, moved into the top 10 of the CMU single season record book.
Central Michigan (10-16, 3-11 MAC) used Northern Illinois miscues to gain a key edge, forcing Northern Illinois into 18 turnovers, while committing just eight of its own, helping to offset a 37-22 deficit in rebounding.
"This was not a game that you have to win in rebounding, but you have to be close," CMU head coach Keno Davis said. "Getting beat by 15 isn't close, but I think we were able to win with turnovers; being able to create 18 and only have eight. I don't know that I've had a team like this; that could have eight turnovers in a game that is that aggressive and then only six turnovers in a triple overtime game. I think it shows something about how our players are developing."
CMU used the three ball to start fast and stake a first half lead. Six different Chippewas knocked down three-pointers, including one from John Simons at the 9:06 mark to produce a 21-17 advantage. Back-to-back buckets from Rayson, a fadeaway from 15 feet and a teardrop over NIU's 6-9 center, then extended the CMU lead to eight at 25-17.
The Huskies chipped away at the deficit from the free throw line to pull within six at 27-21 but another Simons three-pointer with 2:44 remaining in the half ended the threat. NIU got four points from Darrell Bowie before the break while CMU countered with two from Zach Saylor, making the game 32-25 in favor of CMU at halftime.
A wild sequence of events early on in the second half helped Central build its largest lead of the game. After a basket by NIU center Jordan Threloff and two made free throws by Stewart, Rayson stole the ball from the Huskies and scored on a layup, getting fouled. After Rayson completed the three-point play, Blake Hibbitts stole the inbounds and found Stewart open for a layup, opening up a 39-27 CMU lead.
CMU never trailed in the second half, but Northern Illinois never went away. A Bowie three-point play at the 8:33 mark, cut the Chippewas lead to just four at 54-50 but Rayson came through in the clutch again, sinking a three-pointer to push the advantage back to seven points.
Just over five minutes later, with 3:15 remaining, NIU was back within four at 60-56, thanks to an Armstead triple, but CMU was able to respond again, this time getting a big three-pointer from Fowler.
Free throw shooting, which hindered CMU throughout the Ball State game and through much of the rematch with NIU, proved to be key down the stretch. Sophomore guard Rayshawn Simmons made five from the line at crunch time, including two with 21 seconds left to play and the Huskies within three points.
Still, a five-point, 70-65 lead was tenuous in the game's final moments. Northern's Aksel Bolin scored on a layup to make it a three-point game and then Travon Baker stole the inbounds pass. Daveon Balls missed a would-be game-tying three-pointer and Baker got the offensive rebound. But Fowler nearly stole the ball from Baker, knocking it out of bounds near mid-court with three seconds remaining. Bolin had one final look at the basket but good defense forced a poor three-point attempt, sending CMU to victory.
Northern Illinois (12-14, 6-8 MAC) got 14 points from Bowie, paired with Armstead's 19, represented the Huskies only two double figure scorers. Threloff, who tipped in the game winner versus Eastern Michigan on Wednesday, had a game-high 10 rebounds despite leaving the game for a portion of the first half with an injury.
The Chippewas are on the road for rematches against two MAC West Division foes this week, starting on Wednesday when they meet Eastern Michigan (15-11, 7-6 MAC) in a 7 p.m. game at the Convocation Center in Ypsilanti. CMU will then travel to Muncie, Ind. for a Saturday 2 p.m. showdown with Ball State (4-20, 1-12 MAC).

Well boo fucking hoo, Kid Rock, I really feel sorry for you. Wah! He had a hit album called "Cocky". Well, Mick Jagger is cocky, but he is cool. He and the other Stones are a talented thrill. The title says says it all about Kid Rock. He is an American Asshole. Another example: a Kid Rock song titled "You'll Never See Another Motherfucker Like Me". He's the one who said it. The stacked Pamela Anderson is married to this cretin. He's an arrogant, stupid all-around shithead.
Kid Rock is a prime example of what's wrong with popular music today. Just a bunch of vulgar no talent, image-conscous, arrogant trash, with egos bigger than planet Jupiter. Rotten crap.

DENVER - SI.com columnist Andy Glockner included the University of Denver men's basketball team in his annual "luck column."
In addition to the Pioneers, Glockner listed Southern California (Pac-12), Saint Joseph's (Atlantic 10), Memphis (Conference USA) and Utah State (Western Athletic Conference) as the teams looking to bounce back after being "hampered by injury, inexperience or plain ol' injustice" last year.
Based on Ken Pomeroy's "luck" rankings - which had all five teams listed among the bottom 50 last season - as well as offensive and defensive efficiencies, Glockner predicts that the teams on this year's list could make the jump and "be very relevant come March."
The Pioneers lost four games in the final 1.1 seconds last season, and their final eight losses were by an average of 3.4 points.
"The graduation of sharpshooter Brian Stafford will hurt, but with Chris Udofia, Royce O'Neale, Chase Hallam and Brett Olson back, the Pios should have more than enough scoring out of Joe Scott's Princeton offense," Glockner wrote. "Coming off a 22-9 campaign, Denver will be a difficult assignment for the league as the Pios thrive in a system that controls the three-point arc on both ends of the floor. Denver was in the nation's top 15 in both highest percentage of shots taken from behind the arc on offense and lowest percentage of shots allowed from three defensively."
Last year, Glockner included Indiana, Iowa, Marquette, New Mexico and Saint Louis in his luck column. Four of those teams made the NCAA Tournament, where they won at least one game, including the Hoosiers and Golden Eagles which both advanced to the Sweet 16. The other team, Iowa, played in the National Invitation Tournament, advancing to the round of 16.
The Pioneers finished the 2011-12 season with a 22-9 overall record and an 11-5 mark in the Sun Belt Conference. The 22 wins were the most victories in DU's 89-year Division I history.
Men's basketball season tickets for the 2012-13 Denver Pioneers are currently on sale. DU continues its commitment to provide the community with the most affordable and exciting entertainment in the Denver metro area. Ticket packages start at $64.
Individual game tickets will go on sale in October with prices starting at $9 for adults. DU students get into the game free with their Pioneer Card.
For ticket information, please visit DenverPioneers.com or call the Pioneer Basketball Ticket Hotline at (303) 871-HOOP.

CARLING TWP. – An 18-year-old Hanmer man has been charged with careless driving in the death of Claire Philip, following a July 13 crash in Killbear Provincial Park.
West Parry Sound OPP, as well as an OPP Technical Traffic Collision Investigator, EMS and Carling Fire Department responded to the single motor vehicle collision on park grounds at 10:29 p.m. on Friday, July 13.
An investigation at the scene determined that the driver of the 2003 Buick Century, who was 17 years old at the time, lost control of the car and hit a tree. There were five passengers in the vehicle at the time of the crash all between the ages of 17 and 18 years old.
Conditions at the time of the collision were clear and the road was dry.
Police determined speed was a factor in the incident.
One passenger received non-life threatening injuries and was transported to the West Parry Sound Health Centre (WPSHC) for treatment. A second passenger, initially taken to the health centre, with major injuries, was air lifted to a Toronto hospital for further treatment.
The third passenger, Claire Philip, 17, of Churchill, Ontario, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver will appear in Parry Sound court on December 4 to answer to the careless driving charge.

Three tips to achieve digital dominationJune 20, 2012: 10:03 AM ET
How to thrive in the digital world? The best advice may be to change the way you think about your power.
From London, where Fortune hosted a Most Powerful Women conference on Monday, to Cannes, where I'm now at the ad industry's Lions Festival of Creativity, the most fevered discussion has been about how to succeed in the digital space. Success seems to derive, ironically, from divesting your power and putting it someplace else. Three tips I've picked up along the way:
Empower your employees. As Burberry (BURBY) CEO Angela Ahrendts told the MPW audience in London, she transformed the venerable British retailer—and tripled the stock—by giving millenials the run of the fashion house. Burberry's employees--amazingly, 70% are under age 30--share information constantly. Ahrendts connects and feed them via monthly webcasts, weekly videos, and previews of ad campaigns that employees get to see before the media have their peek.
Meanwhile, at Coca-Cola (KO), digital marketing boss Wendy Clark, contends that the more collaboration inside a company, the more agile the business can be. While we used to build careers based on knowing more than the guy in the next office, power today lies in how many connections you can make. "Imagine," Clark says, "if everyone came into work everyday and shared everything they know."
Empower your customers. Coke has collected 42 million "Likes" on Facebook (FB)--more than any other consumer product--by ceding control of the page to it fans and followers. "Embrace your new sales force," Clark advises, referring to the consumers who can help build your brand.
Clark's lesson applies to more than just packaged-goods brands. Here in Cannes, during a panel discussion that I moderated yesterday, the actor Matthew Morrison talked about how the fan base of his Fox (NWSA) TV show, Glee, has maximized social media to create a multi-media hit. (And Morrison, who has over 515,000 Twitter followers, does his part too.) On the same panel with Morrison, Paul Caine, EVP and Chief Revenue Officer at Time Inc. (Fortune's parent), explained that readers today are actually driving the marketing of some magazine stories, particularly the most buzzworthy in People. "We use Twitter to break the story, Facebook to push the conversation, and Pinterest to curate," Caine said. As for the story itself, it may not hit newsstands--or your tablet--until Time Inc. and its network of consumers have generated 48 hours of buildup.
Empower yourself. "The pace of business is really fast, and you have to make decisions with less information," notes Laura Lang, Time Inc. (TWX) CEO and the former global chief of digital agency Digitas. "You have to be entrepreneurial," she adds, noting that failure is almost inevitable. "Fail fast," she advises. Another digital media maven, Arianna Huffington, joined me on stage this morning in Cannes, at a breakfast hosted by ad giant Interpublic Group (IPG). Arianna, who having sold the Huffington Post to AOL (AOL) for $315 million now has a vast digital platform, agrees: "Success in the digital space is about being willing to take risks and fail."

The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
May 19, 2009
With two of the nation's more politically polarizing figures helping fuel the narrative, the U.S. campaign against terrorism was the No. 1 story last week.
The news included the president's change of heart in opposing the release of photos of prisoner abuse by U.S. troops as well as a highly charged Congressional hearing on interrogation techniques. But some coverage also focused on the second and third leading newsmakers of the week—House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who was embroiled in a controversy with the CIA over waterboarding briefings, and former Vice-President Dick Cheney, who continued his public campaign against Barack Obama's policies.
Terrorism coverage accounted for 22% of the newshole from May 11-17, according to the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism. But the story was much bigger on the ideological, debate-oriented talk shows on radio and prime-time cable. Indeed, terrorism filled 50% of the airtime for the 13 talk shows studied by PEJ last week. Those discussions were doubtless driven in part by a political dynamic: Cheney is deeply disliked by many liberals and Pelosi provokes the ire of many conservatives.

Other Affiliations
Deputy Director, HSPH/GHP International Health Systems Program
Dr. Paul Campbell has focused his professional work on the development of public health and health care systems in this country and abroad. He has worked in many countries and regions of the world, including India, China, Poland, Zimbabwe, Morocco and the Eastern Caribbean. In Eastern Europe, he led a HSPH faculty team from 1995 to 1999 providing technical assistance to Polish national and local health leaders as they guided their nation through large-scale social, political and economic change. His research, technical assistance and training efforts overseas have been funded by unilateral government sponsors including the U.S. Agency for International Development, multilateral institutions like the World Bank, and private donors including the Hinduja Foundation in India. He is currently serving as Deputy Director of the HSPH International Health Systems Program (IHSP) where he is responsible for education and training efforts.
Dr. Campbell's health care work in this country has centered on ambulatory care, primarily "safety net" primary care organizations serving the poor. He and Dr. Robert Hoch have developed and run educational programs for community health center (CHC) medical directors for the past 25 years. He has also completed applied research projects and provided consultation for the Bureau of Primary Care in HRSA as well as many individual provider organizations. Over the past 10 years Drs Campbell and Hoch have expended their work with CHCs on the West Coast (through support from the California Endowment, Tides Foundation and the federal government) where they have been particularly interested in the implementation of re-engineered primary care frameworks including the Chronic Care Model.
Dr. Campbell's also served for many years (until 2010) as a Co-Investigator of the Harvard SPH Center for Public Health Preparedness since its inception, post 9/11. His responsibility on that grant was to lead the Center's efforts in rural regions, in particular in Maine where he also served for five and a half years (until 2005) as President of the Maine Center for Public Health (MCPH). During his tenure the MCPH addressed a variety of threats from bioterrorism to childhood obesity to chronic disease. He currently represents the HSPH on a HRSA-funded project combining New England schools of public health and state governments to expand training for practicing professionals throughout the region.
