NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Westminster College will welcome the Rev. Dr. Johannes G.J. Swart, associate professor of World Mission and Evangelism at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, as the speaker for the Spiritual Emphasis Westminster program at 7 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 20, in the Wallace Memorial Chapel. The service is open to the public.
His sermon is titled "E-A-R-S for Jesus" and will focus on "gratitude," the Westminster Office of Faith and Spirituality's theme for the year. The sermon is based off of Luke 10:1-12.
Swart has served as pastor of Second Presbyterian Church in Oil City and as senior pastor of Fontainebleau Community Church in Johannesburg, South Africa. There he led a Dutch Reformed mega-church during the post-apartheid attempt to become more multi-cultural, multi-racial and multi-lingual. He also led a new church development among college students at a campus in Cape Town and was the national director of training and development for the Democratic Party in South Africa.
Swart earned a Ph.D. in congregational mission and leadership from Luther Seminary, a bachelor of theology and two bachelor of arts degrees from the University of Stellenbosch.
Music will be provided by the Second Chance Praise Team and the Westminster College Women's Chorus under the direction of Dr. Robin Lind, associate professor of music and director of choral activities.
Westminster student organists include Sue Jin Jung, who will play the prelude and opening hymn; and Alexandria Ott will play the closing hymn and postlude. Young is an international student majoring in religion. Ott is a senior accounting major and is a daughter of Timothy and Chrystal Ott of Quincy, Ill., and a graduate of Bethel Park High School.
The liturgist will be Olivia Martin, a sophomore English and fine art major. She is a daughter of James and Jennifer Martin of Sandy Lake and a graduate of Lakeview High School.

5 A must have for any collection.TheHypnoToad | 21/02/2011 | See all TheHypnoToad's reviews (8)This package is essentially 3 games in one. Don't mistake TLATD and TBOGT as DLC, they aren't.The original game is huge and follows Niko Bellic as he arrives in Liberty City to meet his cousin Roman and live the American dream. However, this notion is quickly dispelled as Niko finds out that the dream is more of a nightmare as he quickly gets entangled with gangsters, crooked cops, shady law enforcement agencies and the mafia.The Lost and the Damned sees you as Johnny, the vice president of the afor-mentioned motorcycle club battling to save the club as the president, Billy, is released from prison, hell bent on causing as much carnage and mayhem as possible.In The Ballad of Gay Tony you play Luis, joint partner in two of the hottest clubs in Liberty City with Tony. Unfortunately Tony has loaned a lot of money from the wrong people and again thngs start to go wrong quickly.In all of the games there is a multitude of things to do, from activities like base jumping in TBOGT, to taking your girlfriend on helicopter rides in the original game, as well as interactions with certain members of the public on the street.All of the activities are well thought out and contribute to your enjoyment of the games. This game can seriously stunt your social life as you get sucked into each of the characters stories and see how they interact with one another. This being said, TLATD is probably the weakest of the stories, however, this being said, its still very enjoyable.None of these games are graphically led. However, neither are the graphics as poor as has been mentioned in previous reviews. The main pull of the GTA games is in the story and the development of your character and this is accomplished spectacularly in all 3 stories.The three stories on offer here are more than worth the asking price and well worth a try.

1) what we perceive as communication is not what they do, I understand what they are telling me always and they me. Do I try to figure out how no.
2) are they male or female not by our standards and I have never taken the time to ask.
3) they are not my friends and I am not there's while I have never been hurt in all the contacts and there have been many since age four that I remember, I can tell you I have had the same ones my whole life. Has anyone had that? Greasy that is. One is slightly taller then the other and does all the communication.
4) I am asleep almost always but have woken up and not been able to move. The place was bright but not lighted like we would expect nothing is what we think or imagine. I could not even try to explain it so I won't.
5) there is more but I would rather not talk about it as I am not one that finds it a exciting.

Weeks after the announcement that Hank Groff, formerly the director of the dealer program at Guardian Protection Services, was tapped to run the partner program at Dynamark, Guardian has made a hiring of its own.
The super-regional, based in Warrendale, Pa., hired Brian Helt to be its new VP of the authorized dealer program, a newly created position, according to a company statement
A 15-year veteran of the industry, Helt comes to Guardian from Interlogix, where he held several sales leadership positions and managed departments dedicated to acquiring and developing business relationships with dealers.
Prior to Interlogix, Helt served in management roles at UTC Fire and Security and GE Security, while being the owner and operator of his own security business in Kansas City.
Helt has experience growing dealer programs, so it will be worth tracking what kind of impact his hiring has for the company, and to see what responsibilities he takes on in the new role. I'm also interested to see what the move means as far as Guardian's national footprint is concerned.
Honeywell this week released its new 6100 Series Custom Alpha and Fixed-Language Keypads—and it's great that the keypads will benefit dealers by giving customers a wider range of choices and saving installation time and money.
But as a boomer, I must confess that what jumped out at me is the fact that the keypad's display area is 32 percent larger and the words and icons easier to read. I'm not in marketing, but it seems to me that feature is a great way to promote these keypads to boomers. That's a group for whom security and home automation is important—but who also would like to be able to read the darn panel without having to hunt down their eyeglasses!
Here's more from Honeywell's Nov. 4 announcement:
Honeywell today released the 6100 Series Custom Alpha and Fixed-Language Keypads, giving security dealers a broader portfolio to accommodate a range of homeowner budgets and lifestyles. The Custom Alpha keypads feature VISTA Intelligent Programming (VIP)—an intuitive, menu-based programming option for the most common functions that helps reduce installation time and labor costs. VIP is currently available with Honeywell's VISTA-20P control panels.
Easy-to-use graphics and a symmetrical design give the 6100 Series the same look and feel as Honeywell's home and business controllers with touchscreen displays. The seven-model suite offers larger screens with light, neutral backlighting that blends with most interiors. The devices occupy less wall space while providing 32-percent larger display areas with bold fonts and graphic icons, which are ideal for the elderly or visually impaired. Additionally, function and arming keys provide quick set-up and easier use. These new models offer voice, integrated RF or a hardwired zone to best meet the needs of the installation, and the homeowner's budget.
I'm getting ready for a quick trip to the West Coast for the HoneywellConnect 2013 event, which is taking place Nov. 7-10 in Los Angeles. This is a debut event for Honeywell, combining what used to be its First Alert Professional conference with events it did with its CSS and HIS dealers. I heard they're expecting more than 800 people. I'm looking forward to catching up with Security Systems News' readers that fall into all of those categories.
I was just checking out the App for the program. I'm impressed. The App includes descriptions and locations for the educational sessions and other events and a list of attendees. It also allows you to set up a personal schedule. What I like the best, however, is it allows you to send a message to another attendee from the App itself. Great idea. If you're reading this and have news to share, send me a message via the App.
The educational sessions at FAP have always been well attended and interactive, and I'm assuming Connect2013's will be as well. I'm looking forward to these sessions in particular: Connected Home/Connected Small Business; Integated Systems Revenue Opportunities; Strategic Business Planning; Demand Creation; 2G to 4G Migration; Grant Writing; Business Metrics; The Right Acquisition Strategy; Server Virtualization; Hosted Video; Regulatory Compliance Management; and Vertical Market Success.
I'll be blogging and tweeting during the event. Look for updates here Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Going to be a busy three days.
Some hiring news surfaced this week from north of the border. Yorkton, Saskatchewan-based SecurTek, which has three central stations in Canada and commercial and residential accounts in several provinces, hired Darrell Jones to be its new president and CEO, the company announced in a news release.
Jones comes to the SecurTek, a subsidiary of SaskTel, a Canadian telecom company, from outside the industry. He worked previously at the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation, and his background also includes active involvement as a board member with the Real Estate Institute of Manitoba.
He'll now be at the helm of a company with a dealer network of 150 partners, in retail, wholesale monitoring and security servicing. In addition to its commercial and residential security offerings, SecurTek provides video and medical monitoring.
"Darrell has established strong and positive working relationships with the non-profit sector, stakeholder organizations, and the private sector in his role with the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation," Ron Styles, SaskTel President and CEO, said in a news release. "Darrell will be a strong addition to the SecurTek team and I'm confident under his leadership SecurTek will continue to grow and thrive."
In the coming week I hope to speak with Jones about the transition to the security industry, and to explore how his background in real estate could be a boon to someone hoping to expand the company's residential and commercial account bases.
Sharon Shaw, who is well known in the security industry as an evangelist of managed services, a skilled trainer and director of education, has taken on a new role at Tech Systems Inc, an Atlanta-based systems integrator.
Shaw was formerly president of Integrator Support, and director of education for PSA Security. (She's also part of my TechSec Advisory board. )
Here's a link to a story I wrote about Tech Systems Inc. in January. TSI appears to be a great fit for Shaw's skills. She told me she was drawn to the company's "service-centric culture." The services piece—managed as well as services in general—is something Shaw knows well. And it's not an overstatement to say that TSI is big into service. When I did that story in January, Larry Simmons, TSI VP of client services, told me that if a customer is not interested in "a strong service offering, we don't waste resources [on that job]." As a result, TSI in January was "very close to achieving our goal of being able to cover 100 percent of our operating costs [with] recurring revenue."
AT TSI, If service techs want to leave a job site without completing a service call for any reason, the request must be approved by a regional manager, a director, and ultimately by the CEO or Simmons before that tech may leave the job without finishing. TSI's service program is called FOCUS, and the company reports some impressive results. "In 2012, TSI responded to 16,467 FOCUS-related service calls. We only failed to either achieve response time or functionality 30 times, giving TSI a 99.99 percent success rate. Our success rate has not dropped below 99.7 percent over the past three years," Simmons said.
In her new role as Client Development Manager, Shaw will develop continuing education programs for Tech Systems' customers and staff. The idea is to have a "quality communications programs and [see that there's] a continuing stream of relevant information so everyone is informed and when they're making decisions, they have the best tools and resources available to them," she told me.
Tech Systems has 164 employees across the country. Headquartered here, it has other brick-and-mortar offices in North Carolina and California. Employees elsewhere work from virtual offices.
Congratulations to Shaw, and kudos to TSI for a smart hire.
The good news keeps on coming from SAFE Security. I just wrote recently how the San Ramon, Calif.-based company—celebrating its silver anniversary this year—has doubled in size. Now, SAFE has announced this week that it has acquired more than 16,000 accounts, representing $650,000 in RMR.
The new accounts are CastleRock Security residential and commercial alarm monitoring subscriber accounts.
"These accounts fit very nicely into our U.S. and Canada footprint," Paul Sargenti, SAFE president, CEO and founder, said in a prepared statement in an Oct. 29 news release. "With this acquisition we have more than doubled our account base since 2012. We are well equipped to assimilate them and look forward to providing the highest standard in security services to these new subscribers."
Sargenti added, "SAFE is firmly positioned as a full service alarm company and this purchase complements our other growing revenue channels."
The company says it also is seeing strong organic growth from its dealer program, SAFE Dealer Network.
Some intriguing financial news out of the Monitronics/Ascent Capital camp. Ascent Capital Group's largest direct stockholder, media mogul John Malone, recently sold half his preferred shares—worth $32.7 million in cash—back to the company, according to a news release from Ascent Capital. The divestment comes nearly three years after Ascent acquired Monitronics in a $1.2 billion deal.
Malone, who sold 351,734 shares, now owns the same number of Series B shares, plus 198,540 Series A shares, which together comprise 21.6 percent of the Ascent shareholder vote, the release noted.
In an email exchange, Henry Edmonds, president of The Edmonds Group, a St. Louis-based investment bank, indicated that the move would likely please shareholders. "Ascent has had plenty of cash on its balance sheet so this is not a bad use of funds to help stock price," he said.
It will be interesting to see what (if any) effect this has on operations at Monitronics, a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Ascent. An investor I contacted seemed to believe it would not have much effect. Yesterday, the company announced that it will report its earnings on Nov. 12, 2013. On that date, the company will host a conference call in which management will give an update on Ascent's operations, including the financial performance of Monitronics, and "may also discuss future opportunities," the release said.
In all likelihood I'll be dialing into that conference call, which I'm hoping will shed some light on what those opportunities might be.
Jay Hauhn, chief technology officer and VP of industry relations at Tyco Integrated Security, has been named president of CSAA. The announcement was made at the organization's recent annual meeting in Quebec City. Hauhn, who most recently served as vice president for the organization, assumes the role held by Robert Bean, whose term expires this year.
Hauhn is actively involved in several industry organizations. Since 2011, he has served as chairman of the board at The Security Industry Association, a role in which he has executive responsibility for all interaction with industry associations, regulatory agencies and state and federal governments. His current term as Chairman of the Board at SIA ends this year.
Hauhn also sits on the board of directors at the Security Industry Alarm Coalition, and he is chairman of the Electronic Security Association's government relations committee.
I'm scheduled to speak with Hauhn later this week about his expanded role at CSAA. In that interview, I'll discuss some of Hauhn's short- and long-term ambitions as the newly minted leader of the organization.
Prism Skylabs, a two-year-old startup founded by Ron Palmeri and 3VR's Steve Russell today announced a $15 million Series B funding round led by Intel Capital, Intel Corporations' investment and M&A business. The round included investments from Presidio Ventures, Triangle Peak, Data Collective, Expa, and some existing investors, Russell told me.
Prism Skylab is a cloud service that transforms any video camera "into visual merchandising, auditing and business intelligence tool that can be accessed in real time from any device."
"On the business side, it's hard to overstate the value of having [an investor] like Intel for a company like Prism," Russell said.
The funding round was announced today in San Diego at the 14th Annual Intel Capital Global Summit where Intel awarded a total of $65 million in funding to 16 companies.
"At this conference we are able to look at how Prism might integrate with next-gen mobile devices [as well as the possibilities, for example, of using] new techniques in a data center that will allow us to increase our performance over 100-fold."
"The core of our business is the R&D and product work we do, and we'll continue to invest in that," Russell said, but the bulk of the funds from this round will be used for sales and marketing.
Since its launch, Prism has "brought on a host of interesting first customers, the new challenge for the business is to continue to serve the large customers we've won already and to build out our sales and marketing team to expand [the customer base] even further."
Prism SkyLabs has "well north of 50 customers" that include Fortune 500 companies and well-known brands that fall into the category of "large distributed retail companies."
"We solve one or two important problems for them," Russell said. "We provide a set of data and instruments in the real world that heretofore you could only get for online properties. … The other value we provide is allowing global brands to peek in and better manage their stores," he added.
"It's the analytic and visual [capabilities] that are really the secret sauce," he said.
Prism now has about 30 employees and Russell expects to double the size of the company within the next 12 months.
Prism raised $7.5 million in funding in October 2012.
"Intel Capital has long been known as a hands-on investor," Russell said. Among the ways the investor will assist Prism include "providing networking and matchmaking [among] its truly vast portfolio [of partners]."
The Intel Summit "[has] been an incredibly productive and fun three days for us," he said.
Timothy McGinn and David L. Smith, former partners in the Albany, N.Y.-based brokerage firm of McGinn, Smith & Co., which conducted dealings in the alarm industry, will serve out their fraud sentences in the same penitentiary, according to a recent Albany Business Review report.
I wrote here in August about their sentencing, after the two were convicted earlier this year of fraud, conspiracy and tax evasion in a Ponzi-like scheme that caused investors to lose millions. A judge called 65-year-old McGinn "arrogant" and sentenced him to 15 years in prison. Smith, 68, convicted of fewer counts than McGinn, received a 10-year sentence.
Now, the Albany Business Review reports, the two are both in the same prison in Brooklyn, N.Y. Here's more from the Oct. 17 article:
The federal Bureau of Prisons says both men are now at the Metropolitan Detention Center, in Brooklyn. Prosecutors say as many as 900 investors lost money. … Attorneys for McGinn and Smith originally believed the two would wind up in different prisons. Smith had requested to remain fairly close to his family, who live in Saratoga Springs. Attorneys say that McGinn, meanwhile, needs special medical attention for his diabetes, and residual concerns resulting from a heart attack in 2010, months after the FBI and IRS and the Securities and Exchange Commission began probing the McGinn-Smith operations.

The two pleaded not guilty to the charges they faced, and maintained their innocence when testifying at trial. They are preparing an appeal, which may not be heard for several years.

Titling Your ATV Or Off-Road Motorcycle
Follow the steps below to title your all-terrain vehicle or off-road motorcycle in Virginia.
Step 1. Present the following documents
- Completed "Application for Certificate of Title and Registration" (VSA-17A). You will not have to provide the odometer reading for the all-terrain vehicle or off-road motorcycle.
- Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin (MCO) or Manufacturer's Statement of Origin (MSO). The motorcycle dealer license number must be provided.
- Virginia title or out-of-state title signed over to you as the owner, if the vehicle is used and you would like to title the vehicle. Virginia law does not require titling of used all-terrain vehicles or off-road motorcycles.
- Bill of sale from selling dealer.
- Provide proof of address.
Step 2. Pay the following titling fees
- $10.00 titling fee. Any all-terrain vehicle or off-road motorcycle purchased and used by a non-profit volunteer rescue squad is exempt from the titling fees. Proof must be provided that the rescue squad is registered as a non-profit volunteer squad.
Step 3. Select electronic or paper title
- Instead of receiving the title in paper form, you may request that DMV retain an electronic record of the title to ensure the safety of your title.
- If you select the electronic option, when you require a paper title, you may visit any customer service center and request one. You will be required to show proof that you are the registered owner. If no lien ever existed on the vehicle record and no paper title was previously issued, a one-time paper title will be issued at no fee. If a lien existed or a paper title was previously printed, the substitute title fee will be charged. Note: If the lien is an electronic lien and the lien has been released, a one-time paper title will be issued at no fee, provided it has not been printed already.
- If you are unable to visit a customer service center, you may request
in writing or apply online to have a paper title sent to you.
The paper title will be mailed to your address on record with DMV, providing there are no held or stop conditions
on the record. Send your written request and payment (if applicable) to:
- Virginia DMV
- Attn: Titles and Registration Work Center
- PO Box 27412
- Richmond, VA 23269

MGS4 was exclusive to PS3. The rest of the series has been on other consoles. Fallout games have never been exclusive to Sony systems. For exclusives you're looking at: LittleBigPlanet, Uncharted, Infamous, God of War, Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, some of the normal racing and FPS games, a handful or two of really good downloadable titles(Journey, the pixeljunk series).

Pure (2004)
A group of young Montrealers seek, in their own limited ways, for the meaning of life, love, sex and friendship. Misha is a street-smart college student who is torn between completing her degree and her party-girl past. During her summer off in the suburbs she meets Josh, a sweet sensitive guy she instantly falls for. Misha brings him along to the city to help her find an apartment, register for classes, and maybe a little more. Josh's quiet, introspective world is shaken when Misha's quirky friends drag the new couple out for a dizzying night of dancing in after-hours clubs. Misha's ex-boyfriend, Sam, further lures her back into the party-girl life with promises of being on the inside track now that he's a big time party promoter. When class registration doesn't quite go as planned, a disheartened Misha unwittingly finds herself having to choose in life and destiny. Will she head back to class? Or party her life away? Can she follow her heart and choose what's best for her?

Yeah man! That sounds better than ever. I dare say it is the best I've ever heard them.Interesting...no bass player.

Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum to Launch Young Writers' Competition in Area Schools
The Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum is launching a Young Writers' Competition among students from area schools to encourage creative thinking and writing and introduce mid-to-late 19th century history and the arts to tomorrow's museum audiences.
Steve Berry, New York Times best selling author (#1 internationally) and his wife Elizabeth are the creators of the History Matters foundation dedicated to historic preservation. Berry will work with LMMM's educators and judge the finalists in a contest that will culminate in the awards presentation at the Museum's Opening Night Gala on October 18, 2014, with cash and other prizes.
"This is a great way to introduce students to this magnificent National Historic Landmark," said Patsy Brescia, LMMM Chairman of the Board of Trustees. "A writing competition is a creative and educational way for students to explore the Museum's great history and architecture, while honing their writing skills."
LMMM Educators dressed in period costume will meet with teachers and students in the classrooms, and introduce the Mansion in a PowerPoint presentation followed by a visit to the museum, where students can draw ideas and inspiration for their story.
Trustee Haroldo Williams, chair of the Education Committee said, "I am a firm believer that this kind of experiential learning can be a great way to understand history and appreciate the arts in a deeper and more meaningful way."
Competition requirements include a mystery story with the Mansion as the backdrop, taking place between 1868 and 1900, which needs to be between 500-800 words for third grade students and 2,500 words or less for eighth graders. The Museum will also explore the possibility of adapting the award winning stories into a performance feature at the museum in the near future.
"I am truly grateful to Steve Berry for lending his enormous talent to help us launch the Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum's first writing competition in our schools," said Executive Director Susan Gilgore. "I hope this is the beginning of a new and exciting educational program for students at the Mansion." For more information on the competition and the Education Program please visit our website at www.lockwoodmathewsmansion.com or call Joy Romeo, LMMM Volunteer Coordinator at (203) 838-9799, ext. 119 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. Limited availability based on a first come, first serve basis.
The Museum's 2014 cultural and educational programs are made possible in part by generous funding from LMMM's Founding Patrons: The Estate of Cynthia Clark Brown; The Museum's Distinguished Benefactors: Klaff's, The Xerox Foundation, and The Maurice Goodman Foundation; LMMM Sustainers: Spinnaker Real Estate Partners. Gala and Young Writer's Competition Sponsors: M.F. DiScala & Co. The Museum's Education Program is made possible in part by the Fairfield County Community Foundation.

Interpreting Old Bones: Art and Science Give New Meaning to Remains Found on New Haven Green
The New Haven Museum offers an exhibition pairing powerful interpretive art created by seven well-known Connecticut artists with scientific analysis by noted bioarchaeologists in "Nothing is Set in Stone: The Lincoln Oak and the New Haven Green," an informative and revelatory tribute to the historic Lincoln Oak on the New Haven Green. In October 2012, winds from Hurricane Sandy toppled the mighty oak—planted in 1909 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Lincoln's birth—revealing human skeletal remains in the tree's exposed roots and creating an enigmatic story that captured the imagination of the entire country. The exhibition runs through November 2, 2014.
For the artistic portion of "Nothing is Set in Stone: The Lincoln Oak and the New Haven Green," area artists were invited to use branches, limbs, or pieces of the trunk of the Lincoln Oak to interpret the history of the tree and the discovery of the skeletal remains beneath it. The exhibit includes two works by noted Hamden sculptor, Susan Clinard, who says of her Lincoln Oak sculpture, Of the Same Branch; Portraits of the Civil War, 2014:
The other artists included in the exhibition are Lani Asuncion, Erich Davis, Michael Quirk, Jeff Slomba, Rachael A. Vaters-Carr and Alison Walsh. The collected works include mixed-media sculpture and video.
The scientific component of the exhibition consists of the results of the on-going archaeological analysis of human remains recovered from the site. Photo panels describe the remains—including bones, teeth, hair and tissue—and how they were used to determine the gender and approximate ages of those whose remains were unearthed in October, 2012, and offer hypotheses on health and disease issues of the interred. The contents of two time capsules found at the site of the fallen Lincoln Oak are also on display. The research shared in the "Nothing is Set in Stone" exhibition was conducted by G. P Aronsen, K. A. Williamson, and Y. Tonoike (Yale University); N. I. Bellantoni (UConn); G. Conlogue & N. Pelletier (Quinnipiac University); J. Krigbaum (U. Florida); and L. Fehren-Schmitz (UCSC). Historical research was provided by J. Schiff (Yale University) J. Bischoff-Wurstle, and J. Campbell (New Haven Museum).
"It's exciting to innovate new ways of interpreting New Haven history," says New Haven Museum Director of Photo Archives Jason Bischoff-Wurstle, who coordinated the exhibition. "Thanks to the vision of those who contributed, this exhibition uses unconventional elements to document one of the city's most colorful historic chapters."
The New Haven Green was used as a burying ground throughout Colonial times and until 1812. The Lincoln Oak was planted in 1909 by local members of the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) —an organization of Civil War veterans--in honor of President Abraham Lincoln. In 2012, the uprooted tree revealed several surprises including two time capsules buried in 1909 by members of the GAR, and the remains of several 18th-century residents of New Haven.
"One hundred fifty years later, President Lincoln and the Civil War continue to fascinate us," says New Haven Museum Executive Director Margaret Anne Tockarshewsky. "We expect that the public may have a strong response to both the artists' interpretations and the findings of the scientists who continue to examine the remains found beneath the Lincoln Oak."
The New Haven Museum was gifted with the contents of the time capsules uprooted by the Lincoln Oak by The Committee of the Proprietors of the Common and Undivided Lands of New Haven, and a sampling of the artifacts is on display at the Museum.
The research was supported by The Committee of the Proprietors of the Common and Undivided Lands in New Haven; Yale University, Department of Anthropology; and Connecticut State Museum of Natural History and Archaeology Center, University of Connecticut.
"Nothing is Set in Stone" follows a panel discussion at the New Haven Museum on October 31, 2013, which revealed the initial findings of the team of scientists charged with investigating the human remains and time capsules discovered on the Green. The panel is expected to reconvene and present concluding details of the team's research in late October, 2014, coinciding with the two-year anniversary of the toppling of the Lincoln Oak.

New Haven's Own Winfred Rembert
Renowned Artist Winfred Rembert Featured in Kehler Liddell Gallery Exhibit The Kehler Liddell Gallery is honored to present NEW HAVEN'S OWN WINFRED REMBERT, featuring stories of African American lives in the Deep South during the era of segregation, boldly told on hand-tooled, dyed leather, on exhibit from Thursday, July 31- Sunday, August 31 at Kehler Liddell's Westville storefront gallery. An Opening Reception will be held on Sunday, August 3, from 3:00-6:00pm, and there will be two screenings of the award-winning documentary ALL ME: The Life and Times of Winfred Rembert, to be held at the gallery on August 16 and August 21 at 7:00pm. The screenings will be followed by discussions with the artist and the film's director Vivian Ducat. Both the exhibit and screenings are free and open to the public. The show, organized by Kehler Liddell Gallery member artists Marjorie Wolfe and Hank Paper, provides an opportunity to see and hear, first-hand, the story of this remarkable man's journey from a boy growing up picking cotton in Cuthbert, Georgia, to a young man protesting segregation in Americus, GA in the 1960s, as well as his transformation from a victim of racial injustice and bigotry to a renowned folk artist and raconteur. "I wanna see things like they were," Rembert explains in All Me. "They just don't look the same so all it is now is a memory and that's why I'm happy that I did these paintings and things…it was just good. It ain't like that no more. You have to kinda use your imagination." It's not hard to use your imagination when you see the detailed characters and scenes that call out from Rembert's art. Using a technique he learned while serving time in a Georgia prison, Rembert hand tools and dyes his leather with bold and evocative images. Using color, texture and patterns—and highly individualized renderings of human faces—he tells stories of his time spent working in the cotton fields, serving on a chain gang, his near lynching, dancing in juke joints and participating in other facets of daily life in the rural south. His art is "narrative on leather," says Yale University Art Gallery Director Jock Reynolds in the documentary. It was his "wonderful sense of color" especially that inspired Reynolds to organize the show "Southern Exposure" at the Yale Art Gallery in 2000, which was Winfred's first big break. Since then, Rembert's art has been shown at a number of other venues, including galleries in New York City and Albany, Georgia, as well as a series of major museums in a two-year long tour which included the Museum of Fine Arts in Montgomery, Alabama, the Hudson River Museum in Yonkers, outside New York City and the Flint Institute of Arts outside Detroit. He is the author of the children's book Don't Hold Me Back: My Life and Art, and in 2011, was featured in the documentary ALL ME: The Life and Times of Winfred Rembert. He currently lives and works in Newhallville with his family, and spends a portion of his time working with school children telling his stories and teaching his craft. "We're excited to present this special exhibit of Winfred's art," says Hank Paper.

Why the hell is this guy still playing every (Franking) game? He contributes to nothing! He's not producing offensively, he's not very solid defensively and he's not creating any energy whatsoever with his physicality on the fourth line. He actually just takes up time from players who would do so much better on that fourth line. You place Paajarvi, Porter or Cracknell on that line with Lappy and Reeves and you're gonna see a much needed improvement. He's just slow, taking stupid penalties without contributing at all.
I'd say one of the biggest reasons the Blues are playing so poorly these days (because they are, every point they've dropped the last few weeks they deserved to drop) is that we haven't got a single line who plays the game "the right way" as Hitch would describe it. With Steen in and out of the line-up, Oshie playing on the second line, we need some other line to make a mark on the game with their energy. That should be the 4th line. But you can't check and create havoc with only two players up front... Morrow should be scratched asap, I don't care if he has that veteran presence. Obviously that presence is not making much of a difference, so why keep him in?

The Impact Seal Big Gong Show is designed to be one of the largest targets on the market. Coming in at 9" in diameter this target is an awesome long range target or even a close in handgun target. It is wonderful for working on speed and accuracy and even gives beginner's huge target to get used to. This target will sit straight up in the air and when hit with a round it will spin over and stop in its upright position again. It is hands free and can be shot with all calibers.
The Do-All Outdoors Impact Seal Targets are a revolutionary design that incorporates superior quality, engineering, and materials to rival any target system made. Although the target is the proper place to shoot, the base target stands are made of solid steel to withstand the shots from those of us who cant' shoot well. In addition to the original Steel Target Stand, Do-All Outdoors has included a second frame for those of us who decide to not learn how to shoot. This creates a more solid foundation, unmatched durability, while optimizing safety. The fact that each piece is of absolute quality, the shooter is assured of tolerance and precision.
Impact Seal Targets are constructed of technologically advance material. The bullet passes through the self healing target with minimal damage. This material is rugged enough to handle the repeated punishment from all calibers of rifles and handguns. The stand provided is 2-3 times thicker and sturdier than that of any comparable targets. These durable targets are built for long life and countless hours of shooting fun.
Spinning target provides continuous shooting without the need to reset. Sturdy stand more durable than comparable targets composed of self-healing material that is much lighter in weight than metal targets.
• Target reseals Itself as bullet passes through
• Bullet impact spins target around base
• no need to reset
• Longer life technology
• Light weight yet sturdy material
• Rated For all calibers .22 - .50
• Handles thousands of rounds

Healthcare-associated infection (HAI) refers to infections that occur as a result of contact with the healthcare system in its widest sense - from care provided in your own home, to general practice, nursing home care and care in acute hospitals. The term has recently been coined in recognition that increasingly complex procedures are undertaken outside hospitals. Previously, when most complex healthcare was hospital based, the term hospital-acquired infection was used.
Hospital-acquired infection (also known as nosocomial infection) has a strict definition. It refers to an infection that usually develops in a patient 48 hours or more after admission to a hospital or following insertion of an indwelling device, such as a urinary catheter. Infections that occur within the first 48 hours are often considered to have been picked up in the community and were incubating prior to admission. These are then referred to as community-acquired infections. The 48 hour cut-off is somewhat arbitrary as infections have variable incubation periods.
Please click the tabs below to review hospital data pertaining to hospital-acquired infections as compared to our independent Benchmarking Group. All data are from the calendar year 2012.
*Piedmont Healthcare is required to protect the anonymity of its benchmarking affiliation and cannot release the name of that network. The benchmarking collaborative was established in 1997 and now includes over 40 community hospitals in five southeastern states. There are five physician epidemiologists and five full-time Infection Control Professionals (ICPs) associated with the network who work with over 50 ICPs in the member hospitals. The goals of this voluntary collaborative are to collect data from community hospitals and to use these data in working with the infection control departments at the member community hospitals to better understand local problems and patterns related to healthcare-associated infections as a means of improving the performance and quality of care delivered to patients. Piedmont Healthcare has been a member of this network since 2002.

I am a P3 pharmacy student and it is the end of April.
That means I'm in my last academic semester and it is very important that I keep track of all of my "lasts."
I turned in my last cluster exam last week–therapeutics–in the late afternoon on Wednesday. It was one of those exams where there were a lot of topics and none of them were very difficult. I answered each question with this sense of "Yeah! I know this!" Or maybe it was "I didn't study this topic enough to know I don't know this so, sure! This is the answer!"
(It went fine by the way.)
So as I hand in my 18th and final cluster scantron, the proctor tells me I have to fully mark in the test form (you'll know what I'm talking about if you've ever taken a scantron–and if not, it's as basic as writing your name).
All I could think was: "MAN, THIS AIN'T MY FIRST RODEO."
But I did as I was told and fixed my bubble-mark. But geez! I should be a scantron pro at this point!

Cricket lessons
I cannot remember a time when I did not understand baseball.
Not to say that the game came easy to me (I was a Little League benchwarmer) or that I could out-manage Casey Stengel. But as far back as my memory goes, I can recall being able to follow the game.
Clearly, it was not always so. And with the help of the Hall of Fame's new Swinging Away exhibit, I can image what it must have felt like when I was a child and the game was a mystery.
Swinging Away: How Cricket and Baseball Connect debuted in Cooperstown on Sunday to rave reviews from curious fans and cricket experts. The exhibit, created in conjunction with the Marylebone Cricket Club in London and on display at the Hall of Fame through February, explores the links between the two bat-and-ball games that enthrall fans the world over.
But beyond certain basic similarities, the games are totally different. Watching a cricket match – with the passion of the players and fans but without a personal clue of what is going on – I can picture what it must have been like at five years old, watching the Pirates play on TV while my dad rooted for Lumber Company legends like Willie Stargell, Al Oliver and Dave Parker.
An out? A double play? A BALK?
It's like learning a whole new language. And yet, given enough time, I could envision learning to appreciate the intricacies of cricket.
I'll have the chance in June in Cooperstown, when the Haverford College cricket team will play a match just minutes from the Hall of Fame as part of Cricket Weekend. Until then, I'll rely on our topnotch educational team – which spent Sunday teaching Museum visitors the game through hands-on demonstrations – to get me up to speed.
Remember that first foreign language class in school? That's cricket for a baseball fanatic. You get the concept, but your first language – or sport – will always feel more comfortable.
It is, however, worth the effort.

I've been trying to find some American comment on this and your piece is the first I've found. I am an English cricket lover who saw the exhibition in London and really enjoyed it. There are so many things I would love to research as a result seeing it. I would be interested to learn of other America reactions to it.
