The dawning of the new year brings an end to some loan spells while some continue, and here, the official Chelsea website looks at how those players plying their trade elsewhere during the first half of the season have fared.
Having moved to West Bromwich Albion on a season-long loan at the beginning of the campaign, Romelu Lukaku continues to go from strength to strength under the guidance of Steve Clarke at the Hawthorns.
The Baggies have been one of the form teams in the first half of the season, and the Belgian striker has played a key role in taking them to seventh place. After scoring on his debut, a 3-0 opening-day win against Liverpool, he has gone on to score seven times, including the winner in their 2-1 win against Norwich City three days before Christmas.
Early in the season Lukaku had to be content with cameo substitute appearances, but such has been his impact, he has forced his way into the side, becoming a regular starter of late.
His compatriot, Kevin De Bruyne, has also enjoyed a decent end to 2012, while representing Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga.
The 21-year-old has netted four times since moving to Germany, with his most recent goal, an 82nd-minute strike, proving decisive in a 2-1 win against Fortuna Dusseldorf, and he has featured on a regular basis, ironically helping fill the void left by Marko Marin.
His versatility in attack has seen De Bruyne play in a number of different positions, including as a central striker in Bremen's away defeat at Borussia Dortmund.
Josh McEachran [pictured below] is another player who has flourished since gaining regular first team football, impressing in the heart of midfield for Middlesbrough as they bid to regain their top-flight status.
The 19-year-old, who has made 23 appearances, has been playing alongside Grant Leadbitter in Tony Mowbray's preferred 4-4-2 formation, a role which has seen the defensive side of his game improve, and thus far, it's a move which has proved mutually beneficial.
Nathaniel Chalobah joined Gianfranco Zola's Watford earlier in the season, and while the midfielder was originally scheduled to come back to Stamford Bridge this month, the move has yielded such success that he has now extended his stay at Vicarage Road until the end of the season.
Chalobah has, more often than not, been deployed as a lone defensive midfielder, and while the one blemish on his time at the club was a red card against Cardiff City, he has also got forward enough to find the back of the net twice, most recently against Burnley. He has made 18 appearances for the Hornets thus far.
Sam Hutchinson, meanwhile, whose time at Nottingham Forest got off to a fantastic start, has been out of action since September after sustaining a knee injury.
The defender had established himself in the side at right-back prior to his setback, and scored a crucial goal in the 2-1 win against Charlton at the City Ground.
However, he has recently returned to training and will be hopeful of enjoying an injury-free second half of the season.
Over in Spain, Michael Essien, currently on a season-long loan with Real Madrid, has been in and out of Jose Mourinho's side, making six league starts for the Spanish champions who currently trail table-toppers Barcelona by 16 points.
The Ghanaian played the full 90 minutes in Madrid's 3-2 defeat at Malaga shortly before Christmas, and scored his only goal in a 4-0 win over Real Zaragoza back in November.
Chelsea supporters are well aware of Essien's ability to play in different positions, and since moving to Madrid, as well as his usual midfield role, he has also played at both right-back and left-back, earning rave reviews for one performance in particular, the 2-0 win against Celta Vigo.
Elsewhere in La Liga, Thibaut Courtois [pictured below], currently enjoying a second season on loan at Atletico Madrid, continues to impress, playing in all but one of their league games so far this season.
At present, Atletico look to be the one team who could possibly keep pace with Barcelona domestically, but while their attack, as we found out to our cost, are capable of scoring goals at any time, defensively they have been equally sound, with Courtois playing an instrumental role, keeping eight clean sheets.
Since moving back home, Thorgan Hazard has enjoyed a good start to his spell with SV Zulte Waregem in the Belgian top flight.
Eden's younger brother has been primarily deployed on the left of midfield, although he likes to drift slightly deeper and dictate the flow of the game with his excellent range of passing.
So far, he has scored two goals for Waregem, but having also made his Belgium Under-21s debut earlier in the season, he will certainly be pleased with his progress to date.
Patrick Bamford [pictured below] made an instant impact after moving to MK Dons, earning the plaudits of manager Karl Robinson following his debut performance in a 5-1 win against Colchester United.
However, after suffering with a hamstring problem, his involvement was limited, and he went on to make only one more appearance for the club, the Boxing Day defeat at Walsall, where a reckless challenge forced Bamford out of the action with 10 minutes remaining.
Bamford is scheduled to return to Chelsea next week.
Young right-back Todd Kane has been gaining invaluable experience on loan at Preston North End in League One. Our Under-21s captain moved to Deepdale in November and has made three league starts, as well as featuring in their 2-0 FA Cup second round win over Gillingham. Kane is also scheduled to return to Chelsea early next week.
Goalkeeper Sam Walker made 11 league appearances over the course of the first half of the season for Bristol Rovers, although he was unable to prevent them from slipping into the relegation zone prior to his return to Chelsea, while Conor Clifford made only one appearance as a substitute during his time at Crawley Town.
Left-back Ben Gordon has returned to the club following a loan spell at Birmingham City, where he made only one appearance, the opening-day defeat to Watford.
Meanwhile, Archange Nkumu's loan spell at Colchester United was cut short after the 19-year-old suffered a bad run of injuries. He returned to Stamford Bridge a month earlier than planned.
Tomas Kalas continues to grow in stature while on loan at Vitesse Arnhem in the Eredivisie, playing in every league game this season so far.
The Czech defender, enjoying a second season with the Dutch side, also netted his first goal for the club in a 3-0 win against FC Groningen. Patrick van Aanholt, also in his second season at the club, has been a regular in the side as well, playing in all but one league game.
Gael Kakuta, meanwhile, our third player on loan at Vitesse, has steadily improved with every appearance, after injury delayed his involvement at the start of the season.
The 21-year-old has been used as a winger - on both flanks - and a central-midfielder, and has become an important member of a squad currently in fifth position.
Kenneth Omeruo is also enjoying his time in Holland. The Nigerian defender is currently on loan at ADO Den Haag for a second successive season, and has been a regular at the heart of the defence, featuring in all but one league game.
Jeffrey Bruma has struggled to find any sort of momentum while on loan at Hamburg, largely due to misfortune with injuries. The defender made his first league start since September in last month's 1-1 draw with Wolfsburg, although he has been featuring regularly as a substitute.
Currently on loan at his former club,Larje-Angereds I.F, Anjur Osmanovic, a creative midfielder, will be hoping for a fruitful second half of the season which will stand him in good stead before he heads back to Stamford Bridge.
Amin Affane, who was part of the team which won last season's FA Youth Cup, will be pleased with his involvement since joining Roda JC in Holland at the start of the season.
The Swedish winger, who scored his only goal for the club back in September, has made eight league starts for Roda, while also being used as an impact substitute on a regular basis.
Both Milan Lalkovic and goalkeeper Matej Delac are currently gaining experience in Portugal at Vitoria Guimaraes, but with starts being limited for both players, they will undoubtedly be eager to force their way into the side in the second half of the season.
Ulises Davilla is reaping the benefits of playing regular first team football after a disappointing spell with Vitesse last season. The Mexican attacker is on loan at Sabadell in Spain, and has been enjoying a solid run in the side. So far, he has made 15 appearances and scored five goals.

Maloney's Story:
Maloney is a 4 year old Pitbull Terrier who is currently being fostered with Pittie Love Rescue and receiving veterinary care at VESCONE. On Saturday, April 28, 2012, he attended a Pet First Aid class at VESCONE that was led by Dr. Amy Shroff, VESCONE's owner. Maloney was recovering from a partial tail amputation. During the class, Dr. Shroff became concerned with some redness and discharge from his surgery site and she recommended evaluation with VESCONE's Emergency Department.
Dr. Kerrianne Kalbko, an emergency veterinarian at VESCONE, examined Maloney. She noted that his surgery site had some areas of unhealthy tissue that would need to be removed. A culture was performed of this area to determine if there were any bacteria present. He was admitted to VESCONE's ICU for further treatment with antibiotics and wound care.
On Monday, April 30, 2012, Dr. Mary Ann Nieves, one of VESCONE's surgeons, evaluated Maloney. She agreed that Maloney would require an additional procedure to debride some tissue from his tail. His surgery was successfully performed and he has been recovering well.
About Maloney:
According to PittieLove Rescue, Maloney was rescued from Brockton Animal Control 6 weeks ago, was malnourished and had a bad case of "happy tail" (an injury caused by whacking the end of the tail while wagging) and diarrhea. After his surgery at VESCONE, he is recovering well.
He is currently looking for a new home. His foster parents say that he is a joy and very happy to be around. He gets along well with adults and children. He is house trained, crate trained and enjoys going on car rides.
How to Help:
If you cannot adopt Maloney, please consider donating to his cause.
Even with VESCONE's shelter discount, the cost of Maloney's medical expenses all together will be about $3000. People can donate directly on PittieLove Rescue's website www.pittieloverescue.org through Chip-In, Pal Pal or credit/debit card. Checks can also be made out to PittieLove Rescue, Inc. and sent to P.O.Box 3532, Framingham, MA 01705.

She'll spend this year organizing professional development sessions and networking opportunities for the education organization, which Goodwin said trains administrators and works to improve services for special education students.
As president, Goodwin also will represent the state's special education administrators by sitting on the board of the Council for Leaders in Alabama Schools, an affiliate organization of the Alabama Council of Administrators of Special Education.
Having other administrators with whom to discuss the many challenges and complicated federal laws regarding special education is critical, Goodwin explained.
The organization holds two conferences each year. One in October will focus on special education laws, and will be open to all types of school administrators.
"We invite principals and superintendents to our conference as well. The bottom line is that principal is really in charge of that school … so they have to know the law just like a special education coordinator does, " Goodwin said.
Now in her 21st year with Oxford schools, Goodwin began her career teaching English and special education at St. Clair County Schools in 1990. A native of Blountsville, Godwin played basketball at Wallace State College and has coached girls basketball at Oxford City schools.
She received a bachelor's degree in collaborative education from Jacksonville State University in 1990, and later, two masters degrees: one in administration from JSU and another in psychometry from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She also received an education specialist degree from JSU.
Roy Bennett, student service coordinator for Oxford schools, said Goodwin is one of the reasons that Oxford City Schools is at the cutting edge of curriculum advances.
Bennett explained that part of what has helped Goodwin in that effort is the networking she's done with other administrators through the organization.
Overseeing the education of Oxford's approximately 359 students with special needs comes with its own mix of challenges and rewards, Goodwin explained.
"When you see students become independent with the supports that they've received in school, and then they grow up and come back and they're contributing citizens and good people, it's very rewarding, " Goodwin said.
But navigating the complicated maze of federal laws that govern special education can be difficult, she said. The organization offers professional development courses that help administrators stay up to date on those laws.
One of the most pressing challenges for special education programs are the federal spending cuts known as sequestration, Goodwin said.
Sequestration will take away $949 million from national special education funding over 10 years, according to the National Education Association. Alabama's share of special education funding was cut by $9.8 million this year, according to the Alabama Department of Education.
Goodwin traveled with other public education administrators to Washington D.C. in July 2012 to talk with national leaders about securing more money for the state's preschool programs and about ending those federal spending cuts.
"We're very fortunate in Oxford that we have local support for programs," Goodwin said. Oxford schools received nearly $5 million from the city of Oxford this year.
But not all school systems in the state have that same kind of support, Goodwin explained.
"Our budgets have been cut, but we still need to provide those services to our students, Goodwin said.

Director Pay Rises 4.5%
Pay for serving on a corporation's board of directors continues to rise. Compensation for non-employee directors totaled $261,333 in 2012, up 4.5% from 2011, according to compensation consulting firm Steven Hall & Partners.
The firm analyzed the proxy statements of the 200 largest publicly traded corporations, as measured by revenues, in the United States. They found total pay has risen, though the mix of how non-employee directors are compensated has not. Cash accounted for 45% of pay and equity accounted for 55% of pay.
The median cash retainer for board service was $85,000, a 21% increase since 2007. Part of the increase reflects the elimination of meeting fee payments. Just 27% of companies paid board members for attending meetings last year, versus 42% in 2007. The consulting firm thinks companies increased the cash retainer to prevent directors from incurring a drop in compensation. The median fee paid to directors attending a meeting is $2,000.

With Hurricane Sandy bearing down on the entirety of the East Coast and already effecting 50 million people, at Spartan Race HQ, we're paying attention. In New York, Sandy is flooding Battery Park, leading to mass evacuations, and excessive storm surge threatening to run rampant in lower Manhattan at high tide tonight. As New Yorkers are preparing for power outages and possible food shortages Spartan Race is preparing to put on our first public demonstration of Spartan Race in Times Square Thursday, November 1st from 11AM – 2PM.
With billions of dollars of damage possible, markets closed, and schools and businesses on hold, Hurricane Sandy, a Category 1 Hurricane being dubbed a "Super Storm" is proving to be a formidable weather event for the heart of the East Coast. And Spartan is no stranger to Hurricanes. It's how our infamous Hurricane Heat was born and it nearly destroyed our Headquarters and town of Pittsfield, VT, not to mention the home of our new HQ presence in Boston, MA.
Our experience with hurricanes is storied. When news of the impending landfall of Hurricane Irene began to circulate in the summer of 2011, Spartan HQ worked diligently to keep race doors open for the weekend of our first ever two-day event at that time in Amesbury, MA. When the State of Massachusetts shut down the site and the venue for Sunday's August 28, 2011 day of racing, and declared a state of emergency we were forced to cancel the heats. Amidst the disappointed racers and staffers, no one was more upset than our own owner, Joe DeSena and the crews, course designers, and builders ready to race in Amesbury.
Plans for possible Sunday heats evaporated when we were notified that streets would be shut down and the Sunday permit would no longer be valid. A new plan was necessary. Phone calls, site visits, and last minute adjustments were made and SR staffers managed to negotiate an alternative for a few Spartan athletes brave enough to take on the challenge. By noon on Friday, an invitation went out to all Sunday racers giving them the chance to try Spartan's course with a unique twist. An early morning run through the course led by some of the Founders of Spartan Race. And just like that, Running with the Founders: The Hurricane Heat was born and has thrived ever since.
Hurricane Irene then descended on the East coast and ravaged Spartan HQ in Pittsfield, VT and nearby Killington, VT where the Spartan Race World Championship Beast and Ultra Beast race was held in September 2012. The towns became islands, stranding the people who ultimately were helped by the Air National Guard, (one of Spartan's partner sponsors) who assisted 14 other towns in the same stranded circumstances that were they were airlifted supplies and supplied necessities as the roads were being repaired to allow access into the battered towns.
As you can see, the lodge at K1, where a thousand Spartans earned their green medal, collapsed due to the effects of Hurricane Irene. The Pickel Barrel, where hundreds of athletes gathered with their turkey legs and celebrated their completion of the BEAST, has suffered flooding. The bridges up and down Route 100 have collapsed, making it impossible to travel through the heart of the Green Mountains, by car or by foot. In fact, Pittsfield has become an island because of the destroyed bridges, entering and exiting the town line. The destruction of the bridges in Pittsfield has made the town unreachable, for there is absolutely no way to get in or out, except by helicopter! In fact, one of these collapsed bridges was located just outside of our office.
Vermont and our HQ hunkered down and rebuilt, though effects from the storm were still visible at our 2012 Beast and Ultra Beast event.
The New York Times had some good news early Monday morning about Times Square, saying: "…even an impending monster storm like Hurricane Sandy has not kept the tourists away from Times Square. In a post, one of its reporters says, "The approach of Hurricane Sandy may have shut down Broadway theaters on Sunday night, but it did not blow all of the tourists out of Times Square.
Late into the evening, hundreds of people milled about in the cool, fresh air, bathed in the glow of electronic signs and giant TV screens."
It will be a rough few days for the East Coast and Spartan Race wishes all residents and visitors to the East Coast a safe week with the impending storm and storm surge. We are vigilantly watching the "Super storm" at HQ for all those in the path and hope to be out en mass in Times Square on Thursday as scheduled to bring some Spartan spirit to the people of New York. Our entire organization has been trained in Hurricane event management over the last two years, Sandy will be no different

Replace the cartridge in it, that should fix it.
I have a shower with a Moen Posi-Temp valve.
Sometimes when in use it will start to vibrate at
maybe around 8 Hz.
It sounds like thump-thump-thump,and pretty strong.
It sounds worse if I am standing in the kitchen,
which is under the hot water heaters; sounds
like somebody is up there hammering on them.
Is this just an obnoxious noise,
or is it a hazard of some kind?
How can it be fixed?
Replace the cartridge in it, that should fix it.
Plumber for 20+years
Oh I hope someone can help with this one. We have the same problem as kebisch below, and replaced the cartridge the night before last. We reassembled everything, and let the shower run for 10 minutes before deciding that we'd fixed the vibration.
This morning, it's back. We have a small house, with no other access to the shower/tub plumbing other than behind the fixtures--the only other option would be to start smashing out tiles.
Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what the vibration might be. It's not air in the pipes as this is the only place that does it, and we did drain the system the other night.
I had this same problem. The clunking was so loud, you could feel the vibration downstairs. Replacing the cartridge completely eliminated it.
I have the same valve, same problem. Valve is probably 20 yrs. old. Just haven't taken the time to replace it yet.
I have the same problem that Kebisch and Heather1974 complained about, but cannot find a solution. My plumber replaced the catridge, then replaced the entire valve. It still vibrates. He then replaced the pressure regulator and the valve in another shower that he though was involved. All the pipes were checked to see if they were loose. The vibration persists. We never had a problem before installing this pressure balancing valve. The frequency seems to be about 4Hz. Did Heather1974 find a solution? Does anyone have a solution other than those that we tried?

quote:Originally posted by Lone Star I read somewhere that one of the most popular pizzas in Australia is the bacon and egg. That sounds like it might be good, but squid? No thank you!
quote:Originally posted by EdSails I guess the interesting part is just the idea of certain combinations. As a squid addict myself I can eat it any way from sushi to cioppino. I'd be more than willing to try it on pizza. Adding starch - such as potatoes just-----seems wrong! I'm game for the spiced cod roe pizza though! I love Korean BBQ. To me it's the tapas concept taken even further. I guess part of it's the fun of taking someone who's never been there nwithout telling them that the main course comes with 20 side dishes. The choices are so interesting. My main favorite side is the raw crab in chili. BTW, That kimchee pizza looked interesting to me too........ One thing I haven't tried is squid ink. Well, I'll add that to my list of things to check out!
quote:Originally posted by St. Louis Browns fan I never ate pizza in Japan, but I had a plate of spaghetti once. To my surprise, it came mixed with a large serving of frozen green peas. The sauce wasn't bad, and it was a decent (if unexpected) meal.

quote:Originally posted by Grampy As if Japanese pizza [sic] isn't bad enough, the small ones are about $15, and the large about $30. That is quite a price to pay for what is tantamount to a technicolor sneeze.

Upper East Side
Upper East, from 57th Street to 110th Street, from the East River to Fifth Avenue, with Sutton Place and Carnegie Hill as separate enclaves.
The Upper East Side historically exemplifies serious landmark-type apartments but remains a neighborhood where there's a co-op or condo for everyone. Strict co-ops (some with o'-say-can-you-see Central Park views) continue to prevail in the Upper East Side from Park to Fifth Avenues, but there are plenty of studios, one- and two-bedroom condos, and rentals on the Upper East Side as well. Luxury new condo buildings include the Laurel, with a world-class gym that would satisfy any triathlete, the Lucida, and the Brompton.

"I got a sample of this with a Lush order once and I didn't care for it for me (I'm a girl). I thought it was a nice enough minty smell, so I gave it to my 7 year old son to use at bath time and he couldn't stop washing with it! He LOVED it! He asked me to get him more, and so I did. Well, when that order came in, my boyfriend took one whiff of it and kept it for himself... He liked it so much that he didn't want to share it, so I had to order more. Now, both of my boys are stocked up on Dirty (my boyfriend now prefers the bottled version to the bar) and they both use it daily. I've never really had my boyfriend or son make a big deal about a soap or any other bath/body product before! I get constant reminders to order more when they are low, so I would say they give it 5 stars :) less"

Time Capsule

Tires & Wheels: Stock
Suspension: Stock
Drivetrain: Stock with T-90 3-speed manual, Model 18 transfer case, Dana 27 front axle, Dana 44 rear axle
Performance Mods: Stock F Head 4-cylinder
Funniest Wheeling Incident: Got in way over my head on the Holcomb Creek Trail. Fortunately I was with some experienced friends who got me through it (thanks, Zach and Cody) and it turned out to be a very fun day. I mentioned at the beginning of the day that I would be happy as long as no one got hurt and the Jeep was in front of our cabin at the end of the day. The Jeep ran great all day and started missing and backfiring within a mile of returning to our cabin. We barely made it back and ended up blowing up the muffler in the process. Problem turned out to be a bad condenser, but we got a good laugh at the fact I got what I wished for.
Does everything work the way you want?: I'm new to off-roading and bought this CJ to find adventure in Big Bear, California. I cleaned and tuned it up and added a rollcage, and I have been having fun trying it out. So far it has exceeded my expectations.
Anything you would change?: A full-floater conversion on the rear with hubs for flat towing, electric ignition, fix the numerous oil leaks
Anything to add?: That day on Holcomb Creek Trail I think a lot of people (including me) were surprised what an old stock CJ can do. I'm not sure I'd do it again in this Jeep anytime soon, but it really was a fun day.

"Love this card, used the pearl finish and it is very pretty. The front photo quality is perfect but feel like the back photos are not quite as perfect. Would definitely recommend it though!"
"The details on this card are simple yet made my picture really stand out. Love the colors, design and font. Looked at other online stores but tiny prints had the best selection."
"I had photos printed on the back of the card as well as the front it's a great way to design the cards that way if you are like me and love all of your baby's photos and have a hard time choosing which one to put on the front"
"This birth announcement turned out beautiful! Excellent quality, super speedy delivery too! I ordered on a Friday night and had them by noon the following Wednesday."
"I'm super picky and spent a lot of time trying out different cards. I'm just thrilled at how these turned out. They are gorgeous! The quality is fantastic, great heavy paper, the design in person is beautiful and the back makes it look really high-end. A designer called me to make sure I intentionally left out the time of birth...what great service! I also used their chat feature a few times and everyone was helpful. I only used one line for the date of birth and height and weight so the designer fixed the spacing for me so it was centered between "born/weight and height" and our names. I didn't even ask them to do that. 1st class announcement and 1st class service! If you're wondering what eggplant looks like in person, it's a true deep purple. One person via chat said it looked like it had some red in it on her screen so I was really worried it'd be closer to burgundy...thankfully it's not. I was so happy to see it looks like it did on my screen, a perfect medium to dark true purple."

Sounds like you have a flowing well. Do you have a pitless adaptor or just a well seal?
When we have significant snow melting along with heavy rain I get water coming up throught the pvc pipe that houses the wiring for my well pump. Any suggestions on how to prevent this from happening?
Sounds like you have a flowing well. Do you have a pitless adaptor or just a well seal?
The water may be coming from the well, or it may be ground water that is getting into an unsealed conduit.
If the latter, or if the pressure is low, you can probably plug it as follows:
1. Get a Schedule 40 PVC cap that fits the PVC pipe coming into the house.
2. Disconnect your wires in the house and run them through individual holes that you will drill in the cap. The holes should be just large enough to pass the wire without damaging the insulation.
3. After moving the cap close to the existing PVC pipe, apply a liberal amount of silicone bathtub caulk or sealant to seal the points where the wires come through the cap. Keep the sealant off the point where you will need to glue the cap to the pipe through the wall.
4. Since the pressure is low, you can probably glue the cap on with the silicone. If you want, you can use PVC cement.
If you have a convenient drain, you could put a tee between the inlet and the cap (outlet pointed down) and run a pipe or hose to a drain. If you do that, you should put sealant into the pipe before the tee, and in the cap, so you will have only leakage flow to the drain.
My well is flowing out the top of the pump outside. What does this mean. I know there is too much water but does that mean my well isn't deep enough? Do I need to hire someone or is this something I can remedy myself? Our home was built in 2001 in New York. I do not have any information on what type of well was installed because we are the second owners and no information was left for us. The previous owner did not have this problem according to the neighbors. I can hardly believe this since there is no seal around the wiring that is coming up out of the basement floor and this happened yesterday as well as last spring when all the snow melted and we had a lot of rain but didn't happen in the fall when we had severe flooding in the area.Originally Posted by kcmhall

Without actually knowing more about your situation. Well depth, diameter, type (screened or rock well), if your in a flowing well country or not. It's hard to help you out of this one. I would call the local well driller and let him have a look. He would know the area and would know if flowing wells are the norm in your area.
It wouldn't hurt to have the water tested when it's doing this also.

Designed to highlight inspirational stories, HOPE (Helping Others Persevere & Excel) Week was a resounding success in its first season, even earning the praise of President Barack Obama when the Yankees visited the White House earlier this year.
"HOPE Week was such an important week for our entire team during our championship run in 2009," manager Joe Girardi said at the time in April. "It's great that the Yankees' organization will once again allow us to reach out and reward five more inspiring stories during the 2010 season. It should be another special week."
HOPE Week kicked off on Monday August 16th and ran through Friday August 20th during the team's homestand against the Tigers and Mariners. Throughout the week, all 25 Yankees' players, Girardi and his coaching staff, participated in reaching out to an individual, a family or an organization worthy of recognition.
Flying Manes is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping individuals with physical and emotional disabilities by providing therapeutic horse riding instruction. The program was started by Stefanie Pleschinger (pictured above), who organizes the instruction, along with her husband, Bricklin, who oversees the administration. The riding helps the children build strength physically while increasing their self-esteem as they gain command in riding the horse.

Yankees players Robinson Cano, Curtis Granderson, Hiroki Kuroda and Boone Logan surprised Munoz in the kitchen of his home and helped him cook the daily meal he prepares for up to 140 people. Later that night, GM Brian Cashman helped him serve the food to the hungry.
Five-year-old Andy Fass is a happy, talkative kid who bravely deals with oculocutaneous albinism, (www.albinism.org). This genetic condition has left him legally blind and without pigment in his skin. On April 25, Andy Pettitte, who was making a start at Trenton, gave little Andy the baseball he was using to warm up. Encouraged by the gesture, little Andy was inspired to sign up for tee-ball and face his fear of sports involving moving objects. Now all he wants to do is play baseball.
After a morning tour of the Yankees clubhouse, and enjoying the afternoon game vs. Cleveland, the Yankees took Andy Fass and his family to the MLB Fan Cave studio in Manhattan, where he played baseball and other games with Derek Jeter, CC Sabathia and other Yankees players along with other children who have albinism.
Rachel Doyle was a 17-year-old sophomore in high school when she created GlamourGals after the passing of her grandmother in 2000. The organization is comprised of male and female high school and college-age volunteers who give manicures and makeovers to the elderly at senior homes. The group builds meaningful relationships between generations. There are now 1,300 volunteers in more than 62 chapters spanning 13 states.

When his daughter Madison was diagnosed at age 5 with alopecia, an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss on the scalp and elsewhere in varying degrees, Jeff Woytovich searched for a support network. After discovering that there was no organization that focused on children with alopecia, he and his wife, Betsy, created the Children's Alopecia Project to help children with alopecia maintain their confidence and self-esteem heading into their teenage years. There are now 15 "CAP" Kids Support Groups around the country which regularly work with families from 30 states.
Alex Rodriguez, Manager Joe Girardi, along with other Yankees, former Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand and bleacher creature "Bald Vinny" Milano, surprised CAP kids with a picnic at the New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx.

After nearly dying from a brain aneurysm at age 12 in 1997 and enduring a year-long hospital stay, Daniel Trush [L] began music therapy classes. His transformation as a result of playing music was so profound that his family established Daniel's Music Foundation (DMF), a not-for-profit organization which provides free music instruction to individuals with disabilities in the five boroughs of New York City.
The Yankees teamed up with DMF on a special concert at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre on Broadway. Yankees players Nick Swisher, Russell Martin, Francisco Cervelli and Chris Dickerson were joined by former Yankee and Latin Grammy Award nominee Bernie Williams, Latin pop star Romeo Santos, as well as a plethora of Broadway stars who contributed their talents to an unforgettable performance.
During the tragic day of September 11, 2001, thousands of children lost their parents and thousands of parents lost their children. In the 10 years since that dark day, the voids created from the losses continue to be immeasurable. Tuesday's Children was founded in the year following the terrorist attacks to promote healing and recovery. The organization established a unique mentoring program that has helped to heal still-open wounds.
Tuesday's events saw Yankees players Mariano Rivera, Curtis Granderson, Phil Hughes, Luis Ayala, Cory Wade and Steve Garrison, along with former Yankees Manager Joe Torre, surprise Tuesday's Children at the Beekman Beach Club at the South Street Seaport for lunch, games, and a ride on the Delta Baseball Water Taxi. The boat ride took mentors and mentees past the Statue of Liberty and on to Yankee Stadium, where they were honored by the Yankees as special guests during the game that evening.
For 15 child refugees who endured the devastating earthquake in Haiti on January 12, 2010, it was the loving arms of Ss. Joachim and Anne's School in Queens Village, N.Y., that took them in. The children, now aged 7 to 13, arrived in New York with nothing, having lost loved ones and been witness to unspeakable horrors. All have taken to their new home and cherish their opportunity at an education.
Wednesday's festivities saw the Yankees host the young Haitian refugees for a day game at Yankee Stadium, after which players CC Sabathia, Jorge Posada and Freddy Garcia, along with coaches Mike Harkey and Tony Pena, joined the children on a Gray Line New York double-decker bus tour of Manhattan. Stops included the Empire State Building, where the children participated in a ceremonial lighting of the building followed by a visit to the observation deck. The trip continued to Times Square, where Derek Jeter surprised everyone by delivering pizzas. The final stop of the day was at St. Patrick's Cathedral, where Archbishop Timothy Dolan gave a tour of the building and hosted the children for dessert in his private residence.
Megan Ajello, 17, is her neighborhood's fiercest community activist, fighting for handicapped-accessibility for her local playground and holding an annual charity lemonade stand in front of her home in Staten Island. Her biggest battle, however, is against cerebral palsy and scoliosis, which have necessitated six major surgeries, including a spinal fusion.
On Thursday, Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman as well as Robinson Cano, David Robertson, A.J. Burnett, Andruw Jones, Eduardo Nunez and Boone Logan joined coaches Mick Kelleher, Rob Thomson and Charlie Wonsowicz at Megan's charity lemonade stand. The team helped Megan raise money throughout the day. Food was available for all and music filled the street as a dunk tank was brought in for neighbors to dunk Yankees players for charity. Together, Megan and the Yankees raised over $12,000 for the Special Olympics.
John Lahutsky [C], 21,and Andrei Sullivan [L], 19, were Russian orphans who became best friends as little boys in their Moscow orphanage. Considered "incurables" due to their cerebral palsy, they were offered no education or physical therapy and kept indoors for years at a time. They were adopted by American families at ages 5 and 9, respectively, and reunited after 14 years during HOPE Week 2011. John recently wrote a book, The Boy from Baby House 10, which details his suffering in the Russian orphanage system.
Friday's events saw the surprise reunion of John and Andrei, who had not seen each other since 1997, when they were inseparable best friends in an abusive Russian orphanage. They were brought together while visiting the TODAY show at NBC Studios in Rockefeller Center. The pair was given royal treatment on a carriage ride with Yankees manager Joe Girardi to the Central Park Zoo, where they met up with Yankees players Mark Teixeira and Brett Gardner, and Yankees coaches Kevin Long and Larry Rothschild for a tour and outdoor lunch on the grounds.
Jorge is a 13-year-old quadruple amputee originally born in Panama. As an infant, he lost his hands and feet as a result of an infection. Since Jorge was 3, John and Faye Dyksen of North Haledon, N.J., have served as his foster parents, taking him into their home for three-quarters of the year through a program called Healing the Children - New Jersey. In the U.S., Jorge receives the medical treatment he needs, including prosthetics and the fittings and maintenance required of them.
On HOPE Week Monday, Mariano Rivera, Nick Swisher and four other Yankees surprised Jorge with a backyard pool party with his family and friends.
Blind since birth, Jane Lang made the decision a decade ago to expand her life by learning how to make the two-hour, two-train trek to Yankee Stadium with just her canine companion, Clipper. Now in her 60s, she has made more than 250 trips to Yankee Stadium on her own, serving as an inspiration to anyone feeling bound by circumstance.
On HOPE Week Tuesday, Manager Joe Girardi, players Joba Chamberlain, Chad Gaudin and David Robertson and former Yankee Tino Martinez surprised Jane at her Morris Plains, N.J., home and joined her on her trek to the Stadium.
Mohamed is an 18-year-old Sierra Leone native, civil war survivor and recent high school graduate. At age 9, he became the "man of the house," foraging to prevent his family's starvation in Sierra Leone. Since immigrating to an impoverished section of the Bronx several years ago, he has maintained his status as breadwinner for his family in West Africa. All through high school, he worked weekends and summers, enduring a five-hour round-trip commute via public transportation to work as a golf caddie in Alpine, N.J., sending his earnings home to Sierra Leone.
On HOPE Week Wednesday, Mohamed was given the New York City tour of a lifetime. Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman, Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson and pitcher CC Sabathia took Mohamed, who is an aspiring international business student, on a surprise tour of the New York Stock Exchange as the market rang its opening bell. The Yankees then escorted Mohamed to City Hall, where he was joined by Derek Jeter, Marcus Thames and Curtis Granderson in meeting Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Following their trip to City Hall, the Yankees and Mohamed visited the United Nations, where His Excellency Mr. Shekou M. Touray, Permanent Representative of Sierra Leone to the United Nations, spoke with Mohamed and the Yankees in a private meeting and accompanied the group on a tour of the General Assembly Hall.
The "Beautiful People" organization of Warwick, N.Y., provides adaptive sports for special-needs children in Orange County. What makes this group's story so unique is that its founder, Peter Ladka, began the program despite not having any special-needs children of his own.
On HOPE Week Thursday, Yankees players and coaches were paired with special-needs children from the Beautiful People organization in a baseball game on the field at Yankee Stadium following the club's day game against Detroit. The Yankees, the children and their families enjoyed an on-field barbecue catered by Hard Rock Cafe as Yankee Stadium's famous "Bleacher Creature" fans stayed to cheer on the Beautiful People players.
The Arias sisters, Johanna (20) and Melida (18), have overcome hardships and homelessness and made their lives better through education and hard work. Two years ago, with their family struggling, Johanna chose to pass up college at Syracuse University in order to work so she could provide for her sister and mother. This fall, Melida begins her freshman year at Baruch College in Manhattan and hopes to become the first member of her family to graduate college.
On HOPE Week Friday, Yankees players Alex Rodriguez, Robinson Cano, Ramiro Pena, Francisco Cervelli and David Robertson surprised Melida at her job at Wendy's in the Bronx. The players then took Melida and her sister, Johanna, on a surprise shopping spree at DKNY in Manhattan to outfit Melida for her freshman year of college and Johanna for future professional opportunities. At Yankee Stadium that evening, the young women were surprised with paid internships - a medical internship for Johanna at Lincoln Hospital and a 2011 internship with the Yankees for Melida so she can gain professional experience while she pursues her studies.
2009's HOPE Week introduced fans to community heroes Marco and Jen Chiappetta and their Patchwork of Young Leaders Society, as Yankees players and Joe Girardi joined them in their home and took part in their mentoring program. The Yankees also encountered Tom Ellenson, as well as Ranjit Seal and Melvin Williams, who have each overcome disabilities and serve as inspirational members of society. In addition, the organization held an anniversary celebration for ALS-stricken George Murray, his wife Kim and their four-year-old son Trason, along with their family and friends at Yankee Stadium with Yankees players. The club also hosted an overnight carnival for Camp Sundown participants, who suffer from a rare genetic disorder which does not allow them exposure to UV light.

Comments On Oct 06, 2009:The option of having to move my rear bag to the front was a little inconvenient, but after a day of riding in bad weather it really paid off. These are a great investment for ATV Hunters. Easy to install and very durable.

Comments On Oct 09, 2009:I have used this system for two years and 3 hunting trips, over 300 miles. I have had no problems with the bracket, whichs mounted easily to my rear metal rack. I also used a soft rear rack bag that has a padded bottom on it, which only has to be moved to the side about an inch because of the bracket. Love the system and would get another one.

Comments On Feb 17, 2008:This is a good product. Only negative is it can't be used if you have a rear rack bag also .

Degree and Certificate Requirements
Shelton State Community College awards the Associate in Arts Degree, the Associate in Science Degree, the Associate in Applied Science Degree. The College also offers two types of certificate programs, certificate programs that are 30-60 semester hours in length and certificate programs that are 9-26 semester hours in length. The Associate in Arts Degree and the Associate in Science Degree are designed for students who wish to complete the freshman and sophomore years of a baccalaureate degree at Shelton State Community College and transfer to a senior college or university and complete the baccalaureate degree. The Associate in Applied Science Degree and the Certificate programs are designed for students who plan to seek employment based upon the competencies and skills attained through those programs of study. These degrees and certificates are included on the official Academic Inventory of Shelton State Community College maintained by the Alabama Department of Postsecondary Education.
Shelton State Community College also offers a "Certificate of Completion" in some fields. The Certificate of Completion recognizes a student for successfully completing a specific curriculum or course of study. The Certificate of Completion is a local institutional award that is not included on the Academic Inventory of Shelton State Community College maintained by the Alabama Department of Postsecondary Education.

Certificate Programs
1. Associate in Arts and Associate in Science
The guidelines from the Chancellor regarding degree requirements for these awards ensure conformity with Act 94-202 of the Alabama legislature. In March of 1994, the Alabama State Legislature in Act 94-202 created the Articulation and General Studies Committee (AGSC). The legislature charged the AGSC to develop a statewide freshman and sophomore general studies curriculum to be taken at all public colleges and universities. This curriculum was effective September 1, 1998, and is the basis for the Associate in Arts and the Associate in Science degrees offered by Shelton State Community College. It should be noted that the AGSC curriculum and the Chancellor's guidelines regarding this curriculum do not distinguish between the Associate in Arts and the Associate in Science degrees. The Shelton State Community College AA and AS degree requirements (approved curriculum) as established by the Chancellor's guidelines and based on the work of the Articulation and General Studies Committee are as follows:
Area I. Written Composition 6 semester hours
Area II. Humanities and Fine Arts 12 semester hours

In addition to literature, disciplines in the humanities include, but are not limited to, philosophy, religious studies, speech, foreign languages, art, music, theatre, and dance. Courses should be broad in scope and content rather than specific and should emphasize a global perspective. Courses in the arts should emphasize history and appreciation rather than performance. Examples in the humanities and fine arts include, but are not limited to, world literature, art history, music appreciation, comparative religions, and history or origins of dance.
*Students must complete a 6-semester-hour sequence either in literature or in history.
Area III. Natural Sciences and Mathematics 11 semester hours

*Students must complete a six(6) semester-hour sequence either in literature or in history.
Area V. Pre-Professional, Major, and Elective Courses.. 19-23 semester hours

The AGSC Approved Course List
The Alabama State Legislature also charged the Articulation and General Studies Committee (AGSC) with developing, by September 1999, a statewide articulation agreement for the freshman and sophomore years for the transfer of credit among all public institutions of higher education in Alabama. In order to facilitate this agreement, the AGSC established some twenty (20) different discipline committees to review and approve general studies courses for their specific disciplines. These committees are made up of representatives from higher education institutions around the state. The AGSC and the discipline committees work with all the chief academic officers from the two- and four-year institutions in Alabama to facilitate the proposal, review, and approval of individual general studies courses for Areas I-IV. A result of this effort is a list of specific courses which are approved for transfer within Areas I-IV. The curriculum guides described below contain courses in the curriculum of Shelton State Community College which are contained on the AGSC Approved Course List. NOTE: This list also is known as the STARS list because of its association with the Statewide Articulation Reporting System, a computerized articulation and transfer planning system developed by Troy State University and adopted by the Alabama State legislature.

It is the intent of the compilers of this catalog that it contain policies, procedures, and guidelines adopted or approved by The Alabama State Board of Education. Users are cautioned that changes in policies, procedures, and guidelines may have occurred since the publication of this material. In the event of such a conflict, the current statements of Board policy will prevail.
Requirements of the SACS and the Commission on Colleges
In addition to the requirements of the Chancellor's guidelines, the degrees offered by Shelton State Community College must satisfy the requirements of the regional accrediting agency of the College. The regional accrediting agency for Shelton State Community College is the Commission on Colleges (COC) of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
The Criteria for Accreditation of that agency requires that an institution demonstrate that the graduates of its degree programs are competent in reading, writing, oral communication, fundamental mathematical skills and the basic use of computers. The admission requirements of the College and the specific course requirements described in the Chancellor's guidelines described above ensure that the graduates of degree programs demonstrate competence in reading, writing, and fundamental mathematical skills. In order to demonstrate competence in oral communication and the basic use of computers, Shelton State Community College requires most of its degree graduates to take a course in speech and to take a course in the basic use of computers. Provisions are also made for students to document these competencies by other means if these specific course requirements are not suitable for their program of study.
C. Additional Requirements
Shelton State Community College also requires a three-semester hour course in personal health of its degree graduates. This requirement may not be imposed if the course will not fit into a student's program of study, either as a required course or as an elective.
D. Definition of a Major or Field of Concentration
According to Alabama State Board of Education and the guidelines established by the Chancellor, the AA and AS degrees at Shelton State Community College consists of a general education component (Areas I-IV) and a pre-professional, pre-major, field of concentration component (Area V). For many fields of study, the Area V requirements do not actually contain a major or area of concentration but describes courses from a variety of fields which transfer and count toward a baccalaureate in a particular discipline. Area V requirement for other fields of study do contain a substantial number of courses (at least four/12 semester hours) from a single discipline and, thus, can be said to define a major or field of concentration.
Using this definition, for its AA and AS degrees, Shelton State Community College offers majors or areas of concentration in art, theatre, business administration, chemistry, mathematics, and music. All programs of study in the Associate in Applied Science degrees contain sufficient courses in a single field to constitute an associate degree area of concentration.
