Reviews for CORA - Community Overcoming Relationship Abuse
One has only to think about children in domestic-violence situations to understand the impact of such an environment on the psyche, and the unavoidable damage to the budding personalty.
If we want fewer criminals and psychopaths, and more happy next--generation families, this is the least we can do!

I live in NYC and can't answer. But I know a lot about how they work, and have seen some of the happy families where probelms got resolved through CORA's work, or results on trips to SF..

Not familiar enough with its workings day to day--just know it's a necessary and spectacularly effective social tool!

Most that appear in the aquarium hobby are still wild-caught, however. This isn't a very big deal in terms of conservation, because cardinal tetras are reported to be quite prolific in nature. They're still considered to be "beginner fish" by many in the hobby, but because captive-bred populations have been difficult to establish, and because some of the aquarists I've talked to have trouble keeping them alive for any length of time, I'm beginning to think they really aren't beginner fish at all.
In fact, one local fish store owner I'm familiar with has reported he isn't able to keep his cardinal tetras alive for more than six months, on average. He has a lot of fishes to care for, and he doesn't spend a lot of time working with his cardinals (though he has told me they are his favorite freshwater fish), but I would think if he isn't having success, his customers couldn't be having much success either.
My experience with this species has been limited. I haven't kept a cardinal tetra in awhile. I did have one in a small 10-gallon community aquarium I kept in college, but it only survived a year. I've heard cardinal tetras have short life spans in the wild, but I honestly don't know many people keeping these fish. I haven't kept any since my first cardinal tetra and they've been off my radar until recently.
Wild-Caught Versus Tank-RaisedI'm curious to know if wild-caught cardinal tetras are much less hardy than their captive-bred, tank-raised counterparts. Of course, any fish that is raised in an aquarium is likely to be much hardier than its stressed-out, wild-caught cousin.
But I'm wondering if tank-raised cardinals can achieve much higher rates of longevity in aquaria. I'm not just talking about keeping them around longer; I want to know if I can achieve higher survival rates, better spawning success and much longer life spans of around two to three years in captivity.
To this end, and because I really like these little fish, I've decided to include a school of cardinal tetras in my large planted display aquarium that I am still setting up. Eventually, when I have a separate breeding tank set up, I'm going to try some breeding experiments with cardinal tetras. I don't have any experience spawning cardinal tetras, however.
I'm wondering if any of our readers have a detailed spawning report, including spawning procedures, that they've compiled themselves or read about elsewhere? Has anyone kept both wild-caught and captive-bred cardinal tetras, and if so, has anyone noticed a difference in survival rates and overall health between the two types over time? (Check out "10 Steps to Breeding Tetras" here.)
If so, please respond to this blog and tell me about your experiences with cardinal tetras.

Interesting. I wasn't aware that most of the cardinal tetras sold were wild-caught. They are such beautiful fish.

Chadwick's RBI single leads Southern Maine past Millsaps in opening game
APPLETON, Wis. -- Junior Forrest Chadwick grounded a single through the right side of a drawn-in infield to score sophomore Jake Glauser from third base in the top of the 10th inning as Southern Maine defeated Millsaps 2-1 in the opening game of the 2013 Division III Baseball Championship at Fox Cities Stadium.
The victory moves the Huskies (43-8) into a winners' bracket game on Saturday afternoon against the winner of the game between Ithaca and Linfield. The Majors (38-13) will face an elimination game Saturday morning against the loser of the Ithaca-Linfield game.
Glauser, pinch-hitting for junior Troy Thibodeau to lead off the 10th inning, worked a walk from Millsaps senior right-handed starter Will Edwards. Glauser moved to second when senior Stephen Gates' throw to second base on an attempted sacrifice by USM freshman Sam Dexter struck Edwards in the head and bounced over to third base. Edwards would leave the game after being evaluated by the Millsaps athletic trainer and coaches.
Millsaps called on freshman Harper Grier to face junior John Carey who successfully sacrificed Glauser and Dexter along. Senior Tucker was intentionally walked to load the bases bringing Chadwick to the plate. Chadwick grounded his single between the first and second basemen to bring home Glauser. Harper got out of the inning without further damage on consecutive fielders' choice ground balls.
Sophomore Andrew Richards, who came on in relief of USM rookie starter Shyler Scates in the sixth inning, surrendered a one-out single to Gates in the home half of the 10th, but stranded him at first on two fly ball outs. Richards, who improved his record to 10-2, allowed no runs on four hits and two walks while striking out three.
Scates, making the start in place of junior ace Logan Carman who is still feeling the effects of a line drive he took off his pitching arm last weekend at the NCAA Regional, went the first five innings giving up one run on five hits. Scates did not walk anyone while fanning four.
Edwards was the tough-luck loser for the Majors. The right-hander gave up two runs (one earned) while limiting the Huskies' potent offense to five hits and one walk while striking out seven. Edwards dropped to 8-3 on the season.
Millsaps took a 1-0 lead in the third inning. After Scates got the first two batters, Gates doubled down the left-field line and came home on a single to right-center field by sophomore Keith Shumaker.
USM reached Edwards for the tying run in the sixth as Carey led off with a single, advanced to second on a one-out wild pitch, and scored on senior Nick Grady's two-out single down the right-field line.
Chadwick was the lone USM hitter with two base hits. Junior Kevin Wall had three hits for the Majors. Gates and Shumaker each had a double and a single.

"Sug" Nix Stapleton
SHAMROCK - "Sug" Nix Stapleton, 85, died Monday, Oct. 26, 2009, in Brenham.
Graveside services will be at 11 a.m. Saturday in Dozier Cemetery in Dozier by Wright Funeral Directors.
Rubyetta "Sug" Nix Stapleton was born Aug. 6, 1924, in Shamrock, the youngest of four children of Oscar Nix and Winnie Isaacs Nix, she was known by all as "Sug," a nickname for Sugar.
Before completing high school, Sug, at the tender age of 17, met a man with whom she would spend the next 65 years. While jitterbugging at a VFW dance, Sug quite literally fell into the arms of Fred Elmer Stapleton, a young, handsome geophysicist who scooped her "off her feet." Within two weeks, the dancing partners were exchanging vows, a plan contingent upon Sug receiving her diploma from Shamrock High School.
Life to follow was quite exciting for this young gal from the Texas Panhandle. Sug spent the next several decades raising a family and living and traveling all over the U.S., as well as the entire world. Sug called exotic places like Egypt and Libya home.
She enjoyed bridge with lady friends and with a little practice became a talented seamstress. After their time abroad, Sug returned to Houston with her husband. Eventually Sug and Fred gave up the city life and retired in Brenham. There Sug remained by Fred's side until his death in 2006.
She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and sister who was loved by all. There wasn't a person who met her that could forget that wry sense of humor nor the fame she garnered for always speaking her mind.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, and a sister, Blois Rogers.
Survivors include a daughter, Sallye Stapleton of Friendswood; a son and daughter-in-law, Fred and Lois Stapleton of Beaumont; a brother, Keg Nix and wife Margaret of Clinton, Okla.; a sister, Mavis Bentley of Samnorwood; and two granddaughters, Sarah Stapleton and Teal de la Garza.
The family suggests memorials be to American Diabetes Association, P.O. Box 1131, Fairfax, VA 22038-1131; or a favorite charity.

AMD Radeon HD 8670M: Lower mid-range graphics card based on the GCN architecture.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
3537U: Fast Ivy-Bridge-based ULV-CPU in Q1 2013. Offers a core clock of 2.0 - 3.1 GHz and an HD 4000 GPU (350 - 1200 MHz). The TDP is rated at 17 W.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

Wladimir Klitschko: Chisora is a Logical Choice To Fight
Wladimir Klitschko says a fight between him and Dereck Chisora would be a "logical" next step.
Klitschko was in London today with brother Vitali to promote a documentary film about the brothers.
But it wasn't long before his thoughts turned to his next opponent.
Wladimir said Chisora could be a possible challenger to his WBO, IBF and WBA titles after twice lining up a showdown against the Londoner.
The younger of the two Klitschkos was due to take on Chisora in Germany in December and April.
But both times he was ruled out of the fight with injury.
Having taken care of David Haye last weekend, Wladimir said he could meet the winner of Chisora's July 23 fight with Tyson Fury.
"I have lots of options, but Chisora would be a logical choice," said Wladimir, who could be ringside for the Wembley Arena date.
"I was due to fight Chisora before so it is a fight that could easily be made.
"I would like to come back to London and fight, or we could go to Germany.

I am 25, married, but no kids yet. I love coming up with new designs, and although I don't have a lot to offer in my shop yet, I am planning on busting out many new designs in the near future.View all patterns by designer (2) »
I love bonnets! Especially when they are used as photography props. A big inspiration for this pattern is the fact that there is no need for a gauge. I struggled with gauge when I was first starting to crochet, so I wanted to make something that was fashionable and easy for beginners.
No gauge!

Excellent shot. You got the balance of color and composition plus a sense of depth.
The red color is natural tannin from the highland spruce and peat bogs upstream - not coal mine acid pollution. It is superb drinking water. The Dolly Sods are forever protected from coal mining, thank goodness.
Hi, may I contact you on using this photo? Best regards. Nick. nick.teplov (@) gmail.com
A beautiful log structure with a large overshot waterwheel. Was once a grist mill, but now used for Inn purposes. There is a "honeymoon/anniversary" cottage on the property. This could be it.
nice "blue hour" shot
This photo was taken on January 22, 2009 in Weehawken, New Jersey on a tripod with a panoramic head. It was stitched by PTgui using about 93 separate photos. I used the programs HDR function to merge 3 photos taken at each location (+1,0,-1 EV).
The haze in the middle of the photo is not pollution. It seems to be the result of the sun being relatively low in the sky off the right side of the picture. I think it is essentially a shadow. It was "adjusted" in Photoshop, but not eliminated.
If you have any tips or tricks to eliminate the haze, please let me know.

Light rays that are originated from a virtual image diverge away from it. These rays got focused on the retina with the help of lens system in human eye. Therefore, human eye can see a virtual image.
Hence, a virtual image can be photographed.

Benjamin N. Cardozo High School
BAYSIDE NY 11364 Map
Benjamin N. Cardozo High School
Buses: Q27, Q30, QM5
What's special:
The downside:
Our review:
Benjamin N. Cardozo is a large, successful high school open to students who live in its attendance zoned as well as others in Queens who can apply to several themed programs. Home to the highly competitive Da Vinci Math/Science Institute and popular programs in law, journalism and dance, Cardozo offers classes for students of all skill levels including many advanced and college-level courses. Students who do best here find their niche among the wide selection of clubs, activities and athletic teams.
Once a massively overcrowded school with enrollment that exceeded 4,000, Cardozo now serves a more manageable student body of 3,400. "I call us a big, small school," said Sheila Clark, the assistant principal of guidance. A single session of nine periods is enough to accommodate all classes for the day. Guidance counselors meet with students to help them select classes for the following year, according to Clark.
One downside is the reduced budget that accompanied the school's drop in enrollment. Though there's still a nice variety of classes and extra curricular activities, several staff members said the school had to scale back on some offerings such as fewer foreign languages (now three options, down from eight) and fewer Advanced Placement (AP) courses, though there are still roughly 15 options. There are art classes, but Cardozo no longer has a fine arts program. (Framed paintings by former fine arts students still hang in the hallways.)
On the day of our visit, the tone throughout building was very calm. Class sizes remain large, averaging over 30 students, but overall Cardozo doesn't have the crowded, hectic feel of many large schools. It was easy to hear the soft music playing over the public address system during change of classes because the hallways never got too crowded or noisy. You could hear a pin drop in the library even though it was filled with students.
Instruction reflects a mix of teaching styles. Some classes we visited were traditional, with students sitting in rows. In others, group work and discussions drove the lessons.
In a 12th grade economics class, the teacher's enthusiasm for the lesson kept students engaged throughout a discussion on topics ranging from 401ks and credit card debt to fixed annuities and variable rate mortgages. In the physics lab, students, with ropes in hand, spread out across the room and in the hallway to conduct experiments on wavelength and frequency. Students in AP English were eager to offer their thoughts on a passage from Othello.
Many classes, especially honors, go well beyond the Regents curriculum. Da Vinci students take a challenging load of research, honors and AP classes, but qualifying students from any program can take honors, AP and College Now classes. In addition to their regular English class, all freshmen take a reading/writing seminar; sophomores take a class devoted to writing. Each department offers specialized and elective classes, though some are reserved for students in a particular program such as Constitutional law and Criminal Justice, which are open to law program students only.
Beyond core academics there's plenty to keep students engaged. Art and music classes as well as bands, an orchestra and choir keep musically inclined students busy. There are academic teams such as debate, moot court, mock trial, model UN, science Olympiad, robotics and math as well as more than 30 PSAL sports teams and an impressive range of clubs.
The sprawling building is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood and is surrounded by extensive outdoor facilities—sports fields, handball courts and a full-size track—more commonly found at suburban high schools.
Like most large schools, there isn't a lot of hand-holding in the college office, but counselors do their best despite huge caseloads. Guidance counselors visit English classes to guide 11th graders through the college admissions process. Each fall, parent volunteers pitch in to help process college applications. Graduates go on to CUNY and SUNY schools as well as highly selective private colleges and universities.
Special education: In addition to SETSS, there are self-contained and ICT classes in many subjects.
Admissions: Open only to Queens students and residents. Guaranteed admission to students in the school's zone who apply to the "Zoned" program. The Da Vinci Math/Science Institute screens for strong grades, standardized test scores and attendance. Admission to Performing Dance is based on an audition and review of grades, test scores and attendance. The Mentor Law and Humanities program admits students based on the educational option formula, which is designed to admit a mix of low-, average- and high-achieving students. Journalism and Media Studies does not consider grades or test scores but gives priority to zoned students who attend an open house, followed by Queens students who do the same.

The Super Bowl is America's most popular national sporting event. All across the country, millions of people gather to socialize and watch the big game.
The Somerset County Sheriff's Office and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), with support from EmPoWER Somerset, through grant funding, have joined forces with state and local law enforcement officials to spread an important safety message to the public about designating a sober driver on Super Bowl Sunday – Fans Don't Let Fans Drive Drunk.
"This message is for everyone who will be drinking during the big game," said Sheriff Frank J. Provenzano. "Make the right play and pass your keys to a designated driver so they can get you home safely. There is no excuse to get flagged for a false start. The men and women of the Somerset County Sheriff's Office will be out to stop anyone who decides to drink and drive."
Through a collaborative initiative, local bars in Somerset County will be advertising scannable QR codes for quick access to taxi companies to help get football fans home safely this Sunday night. "Drunk driving-related tragedies are 100-percent preventable," said EmPoWER Executive Director Sharon Lutz. "EmPoWER yourself to be part of the solution."
In 2010, alcohol impaired-driving fatalities accounted for 31 percent of the total motor vehicle traffic fatalities in the United States.
"Driving while impaired could result in a loss of your driver's license or even possibly the loss of your or someone else's life," Sheriff Provenzano said. "On Super Bowl Sunday, make it a team effort to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe. If you plan on driving, plan not to drink alcohol." He offered the following tips for hosts and party-goers:
If you are hosting a Super Bowl party:
• Make sure all of your guests designate their sober drivers before kick-off or help arrange ride-sharing with sober drivers.
• Find unique ways to recognize the designated drivers at your party
• Give them a great spot to watch the game.
• Whatever non-alcoholic beverage they are drinking, make sure their glass is always full.
• Let them have the first pass at the buffet table.
• Make sure their cars are easy to access when it is time to start driving people home.
• Serve plenty of food.
• Offer a variety of non-alcoholic choices like soft drinks, juice, and water.
• Serve one drink at a time and serve measured drinks.
• Only serve alcohol to guests over 21 years of age.
• Determine ahead of time when you'll stop serving alcohol, such as one hour before the party ends or at the end of the third quarter (just like NFL stadiums) and begin serving coffee and dessert.
• Add the numbers of local cab companies into your phone so they are just one touch away.
• Take appropriate steps to prevent anyone from drinking and driving.
• Be prepared for guests to spend the night if an alternative way home is not available.
Remember, you can be held liable and prosecuted if someone you served ends up in a drunk-driving crash.
If you are attending a Super Bowl party or watching at a sports bar or restaurant, follow these guidelines to make sure you enjoy Super Bowl XLVI responsibly:
• Designate your sober driver before the party begins.
• Avoid drinking too much alcohol too fast. Pace yourself—eat enough food, take breaks, and alternate with non-alcoholic drinks.
• If you don't have a designated driver, ask a sober friend for a ride home; call a cab, friend, or family member to come and get you; or just stay where you are and sleep it off until you are sober.
•Always buckle up – it's the best defense against other drunk driving.
•Take appropriate steps to prevent anyone from driving while impaired. Remember

Snowy: Treasure Hunter III is an arcade puzzle game in which you climb ladders, dig through platforms and use a variety of items to collect goodies and either trap or avoid enemies. As bears like to keep their feet on the ground, there isn't any jumping involved, although you will have to perform mental gymnastics to figure out how to gather all of the riches on each level while staying alive. If you loved the first two Snowy: Treasure Hunter games, you'll enjoy the third one even more!

How fast are you introducing your LO to solids?� 1 meal a day?� Uping that a week later? month later?� DD is 6 months old and just started solids and is eating 1 "meal"�an ice cube size of a veggie or fruit or 1 TBLS of cereal at lunch time.� The rest is BF on demand.� I am just curious on what others are doing.
Intro'ing solids how fast/slow?
Comments (2)
DD has been eating solids since she was 4 months old. At first it was 1 tbs for a week, then 2. When she turned 5 months we added another meal, at night barley and a veggie. When she turned 6 months we upped her cereal to the 3 tbs and 1/2 jar of fruit. So now she is eating 3 tbs of oatmeal or cereal and 1/2 jar of fruit and at dinner she eats 2-3 tbs of barley with a jar of veggie. Around 7 months we might add lunch which would be a little cereal 1/2 jar veggie and 1/2 jar fruit. But idk I will be asking her pedi what he thinks at her appt on Thursday. She also get a little morning snack every other day either some banana in the mesh teether or something else.
I asked her pedi his opinion on solid feeding at first and then I talked to my mom how she did solid feeding. I mostly took DD's lead though I breastfeed her until she is done and then I feed her until she shows me that she is done.

Adopt This Pet: Johnson
Pets In Need Animal RescueUPDATED 11:46 AM EDT May 02, 2013
Thanks so much for clicking on WMUR's Adopt This Pet.
"Pets in Need Animal Rescue" is a volunteer-based organization that relies on foster homes.
One of those foster homes currently houses Johnson, a West Highland White Terrier/mix who is about 4 years old.
He was found as a stray.
He is neutered, up to date on his vaccines and micro-chipped.
Like most terriers Johnny, as he is affectionately called by his care-givers, is independent and a sometimes can be a little stubborn, but he has learned Sit and Down, and sometimes will Stay.
Johnny is energetic and loves the outdoors. He likes to go for walks and could use some help learning how to walk without pulling.
He is very good with dogs of all sizes. Johnny has lived with everything from Chihuahuas to Irish Wolfhounds. His favorite game is to play keep-away with dogs or people.
Johnson is a special-needs dog who has some neurological impairment. He has difficulty finding his caregivers if they call him when he is at a distance from them. Both his hearing and eyesight are good but he seems to have trouble coordinating these senses. His impairment is also apparent when there is a lot of activity around him. He will become quite agitated and will bark and spin.
He will be most comfortable in a household that is usually quiet and a family who is calm and patient. He is not recommended for a household with children.
He is an affectionate pup who loves to have his back and ears scratched, and loves to give kisses.

Research Working Group
Click here to review the Research Working Group Charter
The mission of the Research Working Group (RWG) is to promote mutual understanding, collaborative activities, and interdisciplinary health care education through research. The broad priorities of the RWG are: shifting the culture at CAM institutions to better embrace research; redirecting the research agenda regarding these disciplines so that it is of greater use to the members of the professions; and building research capacity within the ACCAHC disciplines. An early collaboration is the participation of RWG members in a steering committee on a Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA)-funded project to establish a practice-based research network to examine complementary, alternative and integrative practices. The RWG works to clarify the components of a shared research agenda which may speak more directly to clinicians in the ACCAHC professions. The RWG led intensive ACCAHC involvement in dialogue with the leadership of the NIH National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine in the development of the 2011-2015 strategic plan. One outcome was increased recognition of the importance of focusing research on the impact of "disciplines" in the final plan.

The term "Off-Lease" refers to a product that has been leased to, and used by, a customer, then returned to the leasing agent at the end of the lease period (typically 2 to 3 years). The leasing agent, or their third-party partner, inspects, repairs (if necessary), cleans, re-packages, and then offers the product for sale as "Off-Lease". Although we only purchase and sell the highest grade off-lease products some items will show signs of use, including minor scratches, slight wear on keyboards, etc. Purchasing off lease product saves you money, creates less waste and saves the resources that would be required to produce new products. If saving money and resources is important to you and you are not concerned with minor wear you should consider purchasing off-lease. Off lease products carry limited warranties through the original leasing agent or their third party refurbisher. See below for warranty details.

Photo by Jeanne Rice> The Replacements, Tim, Pleased to Meet Me and Let It Be. "These three albums are my picks, but if you're a no-risk-taking, greatest-hits-only music buyer, then there's always their All for Nothing, Nothing for All. If I had to pick one favorite band, the Replacements would be it. These guys were one-of-a-kind, with their not-too-tight, sometimes raunchy, sometimes slurred I'm-too-drunk-to-care style. Give them a spin, and feel the spirit of a real rock & roll band."
> Jason & the Scorchers. "Anything you can find. You might come close to the recipe if you put Dwight Yoakam, Duane Eddy, Angus Young and the Clash together in a blender and sewed it straight up with a shot of tequila."
> The Commitments. "A must-see film for anyone in a band or anyone thinking about starting one. The action takes place in early 1990s Ireland and follows the path of a band from inception to local phenomenon to ego-fueled self-destruction just before they get their big break. I think I liked it so much because I've seen this happen many times right here in OC."
> Frank Sinatra in The Way You Wear Your Hat. "I think when Frank was being interviewed for this book (less than a year before his death), he knew he wasn't going to be around much longer and he wanted to pass on his wisdom, philosophies and hard lessons. Chock-full of stories from back in the day, it's like an instruction manual on how to live life, swagger and be a man, told by the man himself."

> Letters to Cleo, Go! "It's a crime that Revolution Records could never break this band, especially with this record. Reminiscent of No Doubt with an '80s-influenced, female-fronted sound, they're more guitar-driven and less sugary-sweet. If you like good, memorable songs, this record is for you."
> Tom Waits, Beautiful Maladies: The Island Years. "This is a collection of bizarre songs from a bizarre and mysterious singer/songwriter. Taken from his body of work between the early 1980s and early '90s, these songs feature primal drum rhythms layered with dark, moody overtones. A great soundtrack for an evening of sex!"
> Social Distortion, Mommy's Little Monster. "I know this is a no-brainer, but I had to mention it because of original Social Distortion drummer Derrick O'Brien's influence on my playing. I was about 14 when this record came out, so I was very impressionable. The way he played on those songs was the way I wanted to be able to play. Seventeen years later, I still use some things I picked up from Derrick. Mike Ness, if you're reading this, you should think about calling Derrick next time you need a drummer."

If you're considered a baby boomer, it's time to really think about your current stage of health and your future. This was the message Saturday from one of the speakers at the Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church annual Woman's Day Convocation. Physicians from around the area addressed a packed crowd of women educating them on ways to keep healthy. Physician and guest speaker Devell Young says getting up and moving is key to a longer, healthier life. Young says, "they can go to the mall, you can go walking you can even do stair steps in your house so the most important thing to do is exercise and we have to be able to get back to that."
Two other doctors from the area were also guest speakers.

Outgoing Erie police chief reflects on career
A massive cake awaited carving on Friday morning as Steve Franklin spent some final moments behind the desk of his mostly-empty office in the Erie Bureau of Police.
In front of the desk, on a small side table, sat a list of items that Franklin was turning in on his last working day as Erie's police chief. They included three badges, a hat badge, keys and identification cards.
"It's been a great journey, it really has," Franklin, 61, said before his colleagues presented him with the cake to celebrate his retirement.
Mayor Joe Sinnott has appointed Randy Bowers, 59, to replace Franklin.
Franklin spent 33 years as an Erie police officer. The bulk of his career was in "active" duty, he said, with stints as a patrol officer, patrol supervisor, detective and auto theft investigator before he was named chief in April 2006.
Franklin said it's hard to pinpoint any one event from his police career that stands out in his mind, but rather thinks of the many people he met along the way.
"I managed to help some people out over the years. There are people you get a feel for. You know they took the wrong path for one reason or another and you think they can be rescued and you try to work with them," Franklin said. "What you're looking for is rehabilitative effort to get them back in society where they're not committing a crime. There are some people I've dealt with over the years that have turned their lives around after they got a break."
Sinnott and Franklin's predecessor, Charles Bowers, both said when Franklin was named chief that his biggest challenge would be dealing with manpower and budgeting issues. The department had shrunk at the time from 209 officers to 162. Franklin said he dealt with those constraints in the department, which has since grown to 173 members, through the creation of specialized programs such as the department's saturation patrols and its Neighborhood Action Team.
"You have to learn what you can do with what you have," he said.
Another challenge that Franklin said he overcame was implementing, in 2007, a citywide curfew for children ages 17 and under. It has been successful in curbing some crime since it went into effect, he said.
"I had heard in the years leading up to the curfew that it can't be done, too many problems, too many challenges. It shouldn't be a challenge. There is nothing on the streets of Erie, or any other city for that matter, at 2 or 3 in the morning for a 15-year-old or a 14-year-old kid to be out there running around except to get into trouble. Either you are going to get in trouble because you did something wrong, or you are going to get in trouble because someone is going to victimize you," Franklin said.
Erie's outgoing police chief said he is equally proud of making the public more aware of what goes on and how much work is being done in the Erie Bureau of Police, and he can think of nothing that he would have liked to have done but didn't during his time on the job.
"I think we're heading in the right direction," Franklin said. "Obviously it's always going to come down to how the budget goes, how much money we can spend on crime prevention, where our manpower is going to be. And I think we're holding our own, we're keeping our heads above water. When you look at cities comparable to Erie in size, we're doing OK, maybe even better than OK."

On Tap Today: Marcus Center will rock you
This past summer's movie musical "Rock of Ages" may have been a bomb, but '80s rock is still plenty popular in Milwaukee. This week alone features Journey, Pat Benatar and Loverboy at a joint concert at the BMO Harris Bradley Center on Friday. And at 7:30 p.m. tonight, you can see the music of Journey and Pat Benatar rearranged for the legitimate theater, as traveling stage musical "Rock of Ages" returns to Milwaukee for a six-date engagement at the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts, 929 N. Water St. The tour was last here less than 18 months ago, with a couple dates at the Milwaukee Theatre and "American Idol" alum Constantine Maroulis in the lead role.

Video: The Concert Corner - Previewing Imagine Dragons, Tame Impala and more
It's a busy weekend for shows in Milwaukee, with fast-rising alternative rock act Imagine Dragons at Eagles Ballroom and critically acclaimed psychedelic group Tame Impala at Turner Hall Sunday. Unfortunately both shows are already sold out. But in this week's Concert Corner video chat with CineStars' Brittany Umar, I talk about another promising show (actually, series of shows) happening Saturday--although the promoter told me that he's expecting all the tickets will be bought in advance.
The poetry of Kevin Giese's Winter Chapel
What a lovely and generous project. Every year, the Portrait Society Gallery commissions an artist-made winter chapel, a place for reflection and quietude during these months of harsh weather and inwardness in the Midwest. This year's chapel, one of my favorites, was created by Kevin Giese. It is so simple, constructed with a curved wall and hollow, hand-stitched birch trees.
Four Oscar-nominated films coming to Milwaukee
Of the five foreign-language Oscar nominees, only one - the winner, "Amour" - is showing locally, at the Downer Theatre, where it will continue at least through early March.
