The 44-year-old homeless man this week was a client of the Arlington Street People's Assistance Network.
"He grew up here, he went to our schools and he died on our streets," said Kathy Sibert, A-SPAN's executive director.
About 25 percent of A-SPAN's annual budget, including emergency winter shelter operations, comes from county tax coffers. The organization is asking for $50,000 more for a full-time caseworker for the . So far, 15 people have been placed in housing as part of that program. Eighty-five remain.
"I lost a friend this week. Behind a Dumpster. I talked to him every day," said the Rev. Richard E. Cobb, pastor of . "I lost a friend this week because he didn't have a home."
That's just a snapshot of the dozens of nonprofits, community groups and individuals who testified before the Arlington County Board on Tuesday. The public hearing on the county's proposed $1.03 billion general fund budget lasted three hours, until 10 p.m.
Person after person stood before the board trying to make the case why they needed financial support – for conservation projects, to preserve history, to combat mental health, to protect vulnerable women, children and seniors, and to help immigrants or new citizens better assimilate into life in Arlington County, among other laudable goals.
The requests ranged from a few thousand dollars to several million.
"I was not surprised by what we heard tonight," Board Chairwoman Mary Hynes said afterward. "The community members who have been hurting are still hurting."
The holds a lottery the second Tuesday of every month to see which new clients it can take. On Valentine's Day, 221 people showed up. All but 27 were turned away, Executive Director Nancy Pallesen said.
The asked for an extra $40,000 from the county to cope with the 24 percent increase its seen in clients over the last year. The organization's food purchase budget is already $52,000 in the red and will go even higher before the books close June 30, Executive Director Charles Meng said.
Doorways for Women and Families Executive Director Caroline Jones asked the board to continue its homeless prevention and rapid rehousing program – once funded by the federal government's stimulus, and continued this year by the county, the funding has been zeroed out in the budget that begins July 1. Such a program is a "much more humane" way to deal with homelessness, Jones said, and for the county to suddenly put the brakes on the program is the equivalent of "shooting ourselves in the foot."
The Hispanic Committee of Virginia hopes to see its full $330,000 request realized to support the social services, financial literacy and citizenship assistance programs it offers. The proposed budget has most, but not all, of that set aside for the committee.
Full funding would give the group the financial breathing room to use more of its own dollars on its entrepreneurship program. This year, that program has helped launch six Arlington businesses, including in Clarendon and Max Auto near the Glebe Road-Arlington Boulevard intersection.
"We recognize that our clients experience multiple needs, and by working together across programs we support our clients along the path to full integration and economic self-sufficiency," said Adrienne Kay, the committee's entrepreneurship coordinator.
More than 100 residents from the Boulevard Manor and surrounding communities stood in support while Joan Horwitt pleaded with the board to help pay to refurbish the Reevesland farmhouse into a learning center. The county bought the farmhouse – the last surviving dairy farm in Arlington – and about 2.5 acres around it in 2001. Since then, it's been neglected, Horwitt said.
"The 19th century farm house is a one-of-a-kind Arlington Jewel, a symbol not only of Arlington's agricultural past but also of our sustainable agriculture future," Horwitt said.
No money is in the county budget for the project. Horwitt said her group is willing to work with the county to come up with a figure to get them started in preserving the Reeves' legacy of growing food, knowledge and community.
"When it's a priority in Arlington, it gets funded," she said.
The county is in the process of seeking a private-sector partner on redeveloping the farmhouse, Hynes said afterward. The community group is "ahead of the process," she said.
Dozens more agencies and individuals representing a wide range of interests spoke before the board.
The proposed budget includes that would cost the average Arlington homeowner an extra $118 annually. The county board has said , and the maximum increase would cost the average homeowner here an extra $196 each year.
The county will hold a public hearing on its tax rate at 7 p.m. Thursday.
This article has been edited for clarification. The Hispanic Committee of Virginia's budget request does not include funds for its entrepreneurship program.

Leominster beat Penncroft to move up to 14th in West Midlands League Division One
3:30pm Wednesday 6th February 2013 in Sport
Leominster 4 Penncroft 3.
TERRY Williams bagged a hat-trick as Leominster's third success moved them up to 14th in the West Midlands League Division One.
But Town owed their third win - and arguably best performance - of the season so far to a single save. The Briarwood Boys were two-nil down and out heading into half-time when goalkeeper Jim Panniers tipped a goal-bound free-kick over the top.
Town cleared the resulting corner to play a series of short-passes that set in-form Sam Pearson free to fire home a screamer, still rising as it struck the back of the net.
Then top-scorer Terry Williams took over with one either side of the interval to put Town 3-2 up.
As warhorse Marcus Jones prowled the penalty box looking for contact, defensive partner Keanu Barnett had the confidence to play Town into a second ball game, inviting Penncroft on and sending them straight back.
That confidence spread throughout the side as Town's 11 put in individual best performances to keep Penncroft at bay - and on edge - until a dubious penalty allowed the visitors an equaliser with minutes to go.
A point would have been enough given Town's run this season.
But as the clock ran down Williams latched on to the ball played just outside the box and powered through Penncroft's packed defence to complete his hat-trick.
l WILL Perkins' 30-yard thunderbolt earned Wellington a welcome West Midlands League Premier Division 1-0 away victory at Cradley Town.
The villagers had to survive constant pressure but battled hard to earn the three points which take them into the top half of the table.
The win was even more commendable as Wellington had to play the final 15 minutes with 10 men after Ben Fischer was sent off for a second bookable offence.

After one day at the Winter Meetings, it appears the Nationals are going to have a busy week. They made the first trade of the session in Indianapolis, and they've entertained plenty of interest in outfielder Josh Willingham. There's also a possibility they'll get in the mix for a veteran pitchers.
Below is my story for the paper tomorrow. First, a couple tidbits from the day:
—Jesus Flores is looking like he could be ready for the start of spring training after a shoulder injury, general manager Mike Rizzo said. The Nationals are still looking for another catcher who can start some games, but Flores' shoulder is healing nicely, Rizzo said. To me, the start of spring training seems optimistic, but that's what the Nats are saying now.
—We'll learn more about this decision to send the top Rule 5 pick to the Yankees as compensation for Brian Bruney (the Nats haven't confirmed it yet), but it's a new wrinkle in the Winter Meetings trade game. Teams typically have to have an open roster spot to pick in the Rule 5 draft, but no one I talked to here was quite clear on whether there's an exception with a trade involved. I'll see what I can find out, but don't be surprised if the Nats make another 40-man move to pick on Thursday.
—Lastly, some news from the folks at MASN: The Nationals' and Orioles' cable network is launching MASN2 HD, and every Nationals and Orioles game will be in high definition next season. The channel will be on all the major cable carriers in the Mid-Atlantic. It's a nice step forward after the network rolled out HD coverage last season.
Here's the story for the paper:
INDIANAPOLIS - The Washington Nationals made the first trade of the 2009 MLB Winter Meetings on Monday, acquiring right-handed reliever Brian Bruney from the New York Yankees for a player to be named later and making an early, if marginal move to improve a bullpen that often struggled to protect leads last season.
It was Washington's only concrete move on Day 1, though the Nationals' name came up early and often, particularly as a possible destination for free-agent pitcher Jon Garland and as the recipient of heavy interest in outfielder Josh Willingham.
While Monday's signs pointed to a possible current of moves later in the week, Bruney represented an early attempt to fill a need cheaply.
"The lesson from last year is, you have to go into spring training with a full complement and inventory of pitching," general manager Mike Rizzo said. "That's what we're trying to get: guys that give roster flexibility, but also give us a chance to get guys out at the back end of the game."
The 27-year-old Bruney went 5-0 with a 3.92 ERA in 44 games for the Yankees last season, being added to New York's postseason roster during the World Series after being left off during the first two rounds. To make room for Bruney, the Nationals released reliever Saul Rivera. It's believed they will send the Yankees the player they take with the first pick in Thursday's Rule 5 draft as the player to be named later.
Both general manager Mike Rizzo and manager Jim Riggleman said Bruney will be a late-inning option for the Nationals and could emerge as a candidate to close.
"We're not going to anoint anybody the closer now," Rizzo said. "Jim has been known to go with the hot hand, the guy who's getting the outs at that time. So yeah, he's going to compete for the back end of the game for sure."
Rizzo drafted Bruney with the Diamondbacks in 2000, and started talking to Yankees general manager Brian Cashman about acquiring him several weeks ago. The right-hander has walked 153 batters in 221 1/3 major-league innings, but struck out 218 in that time, and his power fastball is the main reason the Nationals were so interested.
He's had a history of elbow problems, but Rizzo said those haven't flared up since last June, and the Nationals' medical staff didn't see a cause for concern.
The rest of Rizzo's day was filled with higher-profile, if less substantive activity. He confirmed the team's interest in Garland, the 30-year-old who's posted double-digit victories each of the last eight seasons. Garland was not offered arbitration by the Los Angeles Dodgers, and is the kind of second-tier free agent the Nationals are believed to be targeting.
"We have interest in Jon Garland. We've had it the whole time," Rizzo said. "He's been one of the 10 names we've been talking about throughout the whole winter."
Willingham, on the other hand, seemed to be one of a handful of names every other team was talking about on Monday. The Mets were rumored to be leading the pursuit of the left fielder, who hit 24 homers last season and is only entering his second year of arbitration. That combination makes Willingham a cost-effective alternative to free agents Matt Holliday and Jason Bay, but both Rizzo and manager Jim Riggleman said Willingham is staying put unless the Nationals get an overwhelming offer for the left fielder.
"We don't have any desire to move Willingham, believe me. But he's a guy that a lot of teams call about because he doesn't have an exorbitant salary," Riggleman said. "He does have a history of production. So teams are going to be interested in him. My guess is that he'll be our left fielder next year, but again, between now and Opening Day, if somebody overwhelmed you with somebody I guess you've got to listen."

Reporting from Washington —
Congress on Tuesday gave final approval to a $26.1-billion aid package for cash-strapped states that will keep 161,000 teachers and thousands of police, fire and other local government workers from being laid off. The legislation was quickly signed by President Obama.
The funding will also help states maintain medical services for low-income people.
The measure was approved on a virtual party-line vote after the House was summoned back to Washington from its August recess for a rare one-day session. The House approved the bill, 247 to 161, with all but three Democrats present voting for the bill and all but two Republicans present voting against.

BlackBerry World Day 1: BlackBerry 10 and Dev Alpha Unit Hands On Discussion
The conventional wisdom among mobile industry experts is that BlackBerry 10, the next iteration of RIM's operating system, represents the company's last hope for relevance in a landscape now dominated by iOS and Android. According to analytics firm comScore, RIM owns just 12.3% of the US market, down from 16% in December, and likely to continue to decline as RIM relies on aging hardware running BlackBerry 7, the current operating environment that debuted last August.

From Apple To Zowie: The Craziest Celebrity Baby Names
October 21st, 2012 3:14pm EDT
Uma Thurman and her French financier boyfriend Arpad Busson revealed the name of their newborn baby girl this week, and the tot's title is a mouthful.
Not content with the typical first/middle/last -- or in this case hyphenated last -- name, the little girl surely has a challenging future ahead of her when it comes to filling out any types of forms.
The couple named their three-month-old Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson. Where they got her nickname, "Luna," from is a mystery; but their rep says each name has a special reason and meaning.
But Uma and Arpad -- who has a son, Aurelius Cy, with supermodel Elle MacPherson -- aren't the only stars to Christen their newborn with an obscure, outlandish, weird, strange or downright crazy name. Check out these unique names given to poor, defenseless babies who will at some point feel the wrath of bullying schoolmates. We promise they get stranger as they go on...
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin
Daughter Apple and son Moses
Nicole Richie and Joel Madden
Daughter Harlow Winter Kate and son Sparrow James Midnight. Bet you can't figure out when their kids were born.
David Bowie
Son: Zowie Bowie, who changed his name to Duncan Jones. Jones directed the brilliant Sam Rockwell film Moon.

Spice Girl Geri Halliwell
Daughter, Bluebell Madonna. No word if her nickname is "Material Girl."
Bruce Willis and Demi Moore
Daughters Rumer, Scout and Tallulah Belle.
Rachel Griffiths and Andrew Taylor

Shannyn Sossamon
Son, Audio Science. No word if he blinded anyone.

The Temecula Sunrise Rotary Club announces its 25th annual 5K-10K Run through the Vineyard, to be held on Cinco de Mayo, Saturday, May 5, 2012 at the Maurice Car'rie Vineyard and Winery, which has hosted the run for the last ten years. The only Vineyard Run in Southern California, the 10K is run through the rows of the winery's beautiful vineyards six miles east of Temecula on Rancho California Road.
The event draws hundreds of runners for all classes from all over southern California, from San Diego to Los Angeles and beyond, including some world-class athletes. Because of the way the course is set up, it has gained a "must" reputation among many of the runners who love the wine country layout.
This is Temecula Valley's Premier Running Event! Come run or walk this challenging course through Maurice Car'rie Vineyards and enjoy Temecula's scenic wine country. It is a race you will never forget! Registration is limited to the first 800 entrants.
To sign up for the race, go online to www.active.com and link to "Run through the Vineyard." Or log on to temeculasunriserotary.com and click on the link to Active.com. Online registration will close May 3rd at 11:59 pm or when race is sold out, whichever comes first.
The fee for the 5K or 10K is $45 per race when registering online. On May 4th and May 5th, race day, registration is $50 per person per race. The Kids 2K is only $5 for ages 5 through 12, limited to 150. No race shirts are available for the Kids 2K, but each child will receive a commemorative medal and will be timed with a chip.
The day's activities begin at 7:45 am with the 5K run, followed by the 2K Kids Race at 8:15 am. The main event of the morning's activities is the signature 10K run at 8:45 am. Refreshments are served, and computerized timing and race results are by Prime Time.

Proceeds from the race are used by the Temecula Sunrise Rotary Club to benefit eradication of Polio in the world, vocational and academic scholarships, 3rd grade literacy program with eye exams by California Eye Professionals in Temecula, youth leadership awards, Chaparral High School Interact Service Club, and many other youth and community programs. The club also provides Safety Town for children ages 5 to 8, to be held in June in Temecula. Its major sponsor is State Farm Insurance.

Fla. Court Clerk Files Fed'l Class Action, Says Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Didn't Pay Transfer Taxes
Posted Jun 20, 2012 5:00 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
A Florida court clerk has filed suit against Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, contending that the mortgage-funding giants illegally avoided paying transfer taxes on tens of thousands of properties in the state.
Filed on Thursday by Hernando County Clerk of Courts Karen Nicolai in federal court in Tampa, the suit seeks class action status on behalf of all 67 of the state's court clerks, the Palm Beach Post reports.
The Hogan Law Firm is handling the suit for the plaintiffs on a contingency basis. However, there is disagreement about whether the court clerks or the state department of revenue should be pursuing the case.
Representatives of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac declined to discuss the litigation. A deluge of foreclosures in recent years, as well as court budget cuts, have helped put the issue of whether the two were obligated to pay transfer taxes on the front burner.

Found November 29, 2012 on Fox Sports Southwest:
PLAYERS: Jon Daniels, Josh Hamilton, Adrian Beltre, Yu Darvish, David Murphy, Nelson Cruz, Mike Napoli, Koji Uehara, Geovany Soto
TEAMS: Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs
TEAMS: Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs
Texas Rangers general manager Jon Daniels will head to Nashville for next week's Winter Meetings with nothing resolved concerning the future of Josh Hamilton. That's just the way Daniels expected it to be. "I've maintained contact with (agent) Mike Moye," Daniels said. "The interest has been consistent. The process that we agreed to back in the spring when we tabled negotiations at that point was that Josh was going to test the market and once he had a sense of that, would circle back with us. I think he's still in that process." Daniels didn't sound concerned about that either. He said the Rangers are still sorting through some of their options too. While there have been some moves made around baseball and a couple of minor moves by the Rangers, the club has yet to make a big splash this offseason like it did two years ago signing Adrian Beltre and last year with the signing of Yu Darvish. Daniels maintained that the club will not wait on Hamilton's decision before making any other moves. He also said that if the club did lose out on Hamilton, that doesn't mean the Rangers will go seeking another outfielder. He's confident with David Murphy in left, Nelson Cruz in right and a host of players currently on the roster vying for playing time in center. "I don't know that if Josh isn't back we're not in a situation where we feel like we need to add an outfielder," Daniels said. "We may but that's not necessarily our first priority." The top two priorities for the club remain at catcher and in the bullpen. The Rangers met with catcher Mike Napoli Tuesday night and have been in contact with representatives for right-hander Koji Uehara, who was one of the key members in the bullpen in 2012. "The catching market is a little bit of a game of musical chairs because there's kind of a limited supply of guys available," Daniels said. "We're still looking at our options there." The club has until Friday to tender a contract to Geovany Soto, the most established catcher on the 40-man roster. Daniels said the club hasn't decided what to do with Soto, who made 4.3 million in 2012 but hit just .198 between the Chicago Cubs and Texas. Daniels also said the long-term solution to the catching spot may not be found this winter by the club. While the cub hasn't made any real progress on its top two priorities, Daniels isn't worried. "The majority of options in both areas are still out there," he said. "The bullpen market is a little different because relievers come in all shapes and all sizes. A lot of times it's not the heralded name or big free-agent signing that wins. A lot of times it' the under-the-radar guy or a guy coming back from injury or tinkering with their delivery and find a new grip. We've added a couple of guys that have a chance to help us. We're still looking in that area. Catching wise I don't know at this point."

A police search of a Kirkwood home led to the arrest of two adults, one of whom was arrested for distribution of a controlled substance.
Kirkwood police served a search warrant at the home in the 600 block of South Elliott Avenue last Wednesday at 9:05 a.m. Police applied for the warrant after receiving "reliable information that drugs were being sold from the home," Detective Dave Smith of the Kirkwood Police Department told Patch in an email.
The type and amount of substances seized by police are pending lab results. The distribution case will be referred to the St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney's Office for review.
The other adult arrested during the search was arrested for violating probation, according to police.

"Your dad served in Vietnam, Frankie, and while there he was wounded in action. He received the Purple Heart. When he got home, we both worked together on Jenkins Farm, so that meant neither one of us was rich. He wanted to get us something but he didn't have the money to do it. He went down to Barrows hardware and had old Charlie engrave that medal he earned in Vietnam. That medal meant everything to me, so after I died I kept close tabs on where it went. Kevin Bradley couldn't sell it to anyone, so I watched as he heaved it into the glove compartment of his old Chevy. He never got rid of the car, even though he has a new one now, and that car sits up behind the Bradley garage, out in the field," Abbott Conway replied to the young man.
"I wonder how dad could get it without breaking the law," Frank said and scratched his head.
"I don't have the answer, son. The rest is now up to you."
"I guess I better get going but I do have a question before I go."
"What's that?"
"Yesterday, when the four of us came in here, and last week when my brother and I came in here, there was a voice that said something to us. Was that a tape recorder or something?"
"I was trying to scare you boys off. That was my voice disguised as someone else. And another thing, remember that glass you two broke trying to get out of here?"
"Yeah, the one that fixed itself after we got off the porch. I remember that alright."
"That was me doing a little hocus pocus. It seems I do have a few powers that I didn't have when I was alive. That scared ya did it?"
"Well kinda, yeah. We couldn't get back to the boat fast enough. I've got to go. If I find out anything I'll come back here and let you know."
Frank heads down the stairs and was careful not to step on the second step. He jumped over it and headed for the door.
When Frank got home his dad was still at work, but his brother was around and could see that Frank was busy thinking.
"What's up Frank?" Johnny asked as he sat down on the front steps with his brother.
"You don't want to ask me that right now."
"Did you go back to the Conway house, like you said you was gonna?"
"Uh-huh, I did and I learned a lot too."
"Well did you see the ghost?"
"Yes I saw him and even talked to him."
"And you're still alive?"
"Duh…! I'm here ain't I?"
Frank spent the next hour telling his brother about the events of the morning.
When his father came home, around fifve-fifteen that afternoon, Frank approached him as he got out of the car.
"Dad, can we have a talk, just you and I?" Frank asked as he neared the car.
"What did you do wrong now, Frank?" His father asked with a slight chuckle and placed his right hand on his shoulder.
"I didn't do anything wrong, sir. Well, that's not exactly true either. Can we go somewhere and sit down?"
"I'll let mom know I'm home and then I'll meet you out by the picnic table, okay?"
"I'll be there, dad."
Ten minutes later, with a fresh cup of coffee in his hand, Frank's father heads out to the picnic table.
"Okay, son, now what's on your mind?" His father asked as he took a seat.
"I know I'm going to get a scolding for what I did, but please wait until I'm done before you go and do it."
"I can do that. Go on! He said and took a sip of his hot coffee.
Frank told him about all three trips he and the others took to the Conway house, including seeing his father's friend's ghost.
"Wow, where do I begin? I'll hold off scolding you, for the moment, but I've got some questions I need answered young man."
"I knew you would. Fire away!"
"How are you so sure he's the ghost of Abbott Conway?" he asked and lifted the coffee cup to his lips.
"Does the name Abbott Constatine Conway mean anything to you?"
Barry Devers froze and the coffee cup dropped from his hand as if he'd just seen the ghost of Abbott Conway himself. "I'm the only one he told that name to, Frank. Was there anything else?"
"When you were going to be the best man at his wedding, you had your Vietnam Purple Heart engraved that you gave them as your gift for their wedding, right?"
"The only ones who knew that were Mona and Abbott Conway. Your mom and I weren't married yet. Okay, so you're not lying to me. What else did he say?"
Frank goes on to tell his father the rest of the story.
By six o'clock they both headed into the house for dinner but a lot weighed on Barry Dever's mind.
"Is something bothering you honey?" Thelma Devers asked as she took a bite of her meal.
"I'll tell you about it later, love. I've got to call the Sheriff and get him to come over here somehow." Barry left the table and went to the hall phone. After looking up the number He dialed the Sheriff's house.
"Hello!" Came a quick response after just one ring.
"Terry! This is Barry Devers. Is Chad at home?"
"One second, Barry," she replied and went to get her husband.
A moment later, "This is Sheriff Connors, Barry. What can I do for you?"
"Chad! I need you to come over here at your earliest convenience. I've got information about a twenty-five year old unsolved murder case in our town."
"That goes back before I became Sheriff here, Barry. That means it just has to be the Abbott Conway murder on Cabot Road. I'll be there in twenty minutes," the Sheriff replied and hung the phone up immediately.
As Barry entered the kitchen, he said, "Don't you go anywhere, son. Sheriff Connors is on his way here."
"What's up, Barry?" His wife asked and ran her hands through her hair in a nervous manner.
"Frank came across some information that can clean up the murder of my dear friend Abbott Conway. He died almost twenty-five years ago when someone beat the daylights out of him."
"How did you get that information, Frankie?" His mother asked.
"Let's just say I did some snooping around where I didn't belong," Frank replied.
"I figured that much. Is he in any trouble, dear?"
"Not at the moment. If he's right and I have no reason to disbelieve him, four men willl stand trial for the death of my dear friend."
Five minutes later, with no lights or sirens, Sheriff Connors pulled in behind Barry's car.
Barry met the Sheriff as he approached the porch.
"I stopped by the station and pulled the file on the Conway case. Let's go inside and hear what you have to say," the Sheriff said and followed Barry into the house. Barry led him into the kitchen and the Sheriff grabbed a seat across from Frankie.
"Are you sure you want your son to hear this, Barry?" The Sheriff asked as he opened the Conway file.
"It's my son you have to listen to, Sheriff. I might add that you please listen to everything he has to say before you comment, okay?"
"I came here to listen to a what, sixteen year old boy who wasn't even born when this guy Conway was murdered? Are you serious?"
"I'm serious, Chad. Please here what he has to say, all of it."
"Okay Frankie, this better be darned good."
For the next hour Frankie rehashes the events of his three trips to the Conway house and he left nothing out.
"If I go to the D.A. with this they'll be seeking my early retirement, Barry. How the hell am I going to explain that the information came from a ghost, and that is in fact if it did. Even talking about it gives me the creeps."
"It's true, Sheriff, every bit of it, I swear," Frankie insisted.
"Let's just say you're telling me the truth, son, I don't have a single shred of evidence to even obtain a search warrant, let alone arrest these four men."
"I'm just telling you what Mr. Conway told me and my dad backed up everything I said," Frankie admitted.
"I have an idea, Sheriff," Barry said.
"I'm game! What's your idea?"

Clemson's football coaching staff will play host to official visitors Shaq Lawson and Cordrea Tankersley this weekend, in conjunction with the N.C. State football game.
Both Lawson and Tankersley are attending Hargrave Military this semester, after signing with Clemson last February. Both anticipate enrolling in January and joining the Tigers for spring practice.
Several players committed to Clemson will also attend on Saturday, including Jadar Johnson, Ryan Jenkins, Dehaun Watson, D.J. Greenlee, Ben Boulware, Dane Rogers and Demarcus Robinson, who made his official visit last week. David Kamara, who de-committed from Clemson last week, will attend, accompanied by Grayson High teammate Ryan Carter.

How Not to Get Hooked by a 'Phishing' Scam
September 30, 2004 - Internet scammers casting about for people's financial information have a new way to lure unsuspecting victims: They go "phishing."
Phishing is a high-tech scam that uses spam or pop-up messages to deceive you into disclosing your credit card numbers, bank account information, Social Security number, passwords, or other sensitive information.
According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), phishers send an email or pop-up message that claims to be from a business or organization that you deal with – for example, your Internet service provider (ISP), bank, online payment service, or even a government agency. The message usually says that you need to "update" or "validate" your account information. It might threaten some dire consequence if you don't respond. The message directs you to a website that looks just like a legitimate organization's site, but it isn't. The purpose of the bogus site? To trick you into divulging your personal information so the operators can steal your identity and run up bills or commit crimes in your name.
The Vermont Attorney General, William H. Sorrell, suggests these tips to help you avoid getting hooked by a phishing scam:
You may also want to visit other web sites with information about phishing scams. One such website is: http://www.antiphishing.org/.

There is nothing more powerful than women talking passion… and fashion!
Lil Mama dresses me inher style and I dress her in mine in this fun interview!
Passionista Principle: You have to GO for what you want!
Hey Rockstars,
My episodes of "Abiola's Kiss and Tell TV" are like my babies. I feel like I am never supposed to like one video or interview subject more than another so I will just say this: I LOVE this interview.
On this episode hip hop's finest Lil Mama meets me in Harlem at Bebenoir Boutique. Although she is only 22, before there was Nicky Minaj, there was Lil Mama. And nothing was off limits.
We discussed her new hip hop project "Hustler Girl" and her snafu with Jay-Z and Alicia Keys at the 2009 MTV VMAs. Wait until you see what she has to say about it now!
Lil Mama also talks love, relationships and fashion,. We give each other makeovers. I give her a Bombshell look and she gives me fun, baggy "Hustler Girl" swag. If you don't you you'll find out why Lil Mama is definitely the Voice of Her Generation. She spits a few lyrics and shares a bit about her gig as a judge on Randy Jackson presents "America's Best Dance Crew."
If you are in NYC come to Harlem and the Bebenoir Boutique to find all of the looks featured in the video. This style episode was shot and edited by Kristal Mosley for iCreateTV.com.

Apple is currently rolling out the iTunes Store across several countries including Russia, Turkey, and Ukraine. The Verge has obtained direct evidence from a tipster confirming as much, with reports from Twitter indicating the store is also accessible — at least in some capacity — to those in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Lebanon. Content availability is likely to vary by region, as has been the case during previous international iTunes expansions. Earlier today, TechCrunch reported that Apple may be holding an iTunes-related event in Moscow tomorrow: if true, such an event would likely make the long-awaited arrival of Apple's digital storefront official.
Russia's music industry has experienced a sharp decline in recent years, falling from $191 million USD in 2007 to $76.6 million in 2011 according to MusicWeek. Digital piracy has become an significant obstacle in the country, with the RIAA claiming Russia's anti-piracy enforcement (pdf link) remains "deficient for most of the copyright industries." Yet Apple finally entering the market suggests the company is ready to tackle the problem head on. In particular, Apple's iTunes Match service could offer those with illegally-obtained music the chance to convert their library to an industry-blessed collection stored in the cloud — for a fee, of course.
Update: We've now heard from tipsters that the iTunes Store has gone live in India, as well. We'll keep you updated with news about any additional countries.
Update 2: And it's official. Apple says the store is now available in a total of 119 countries around the world, including Russia, Turkey, India, and South Africa.

This week's challenge is:
Winter White- Winter is on it's way and maybe even some snow- let's see your all white creations (ODBDSLC129)
For my creation I used The Babe and Christmas Flourished Verses from Our Daily Bread Designs. The nativity image was so beautiful that I just colored the image with copics, cut it out and framed it with Spellbinders Labels 22 on top of a piece of white cardstock embossed with Provocraft (Cuttlebug) Swiss Dots. I did not want design paper to detract from the image or take away from the softness of it so I mounted the framed image on a piece of white cardstock (Neehan Solar White) that was embossed with the Sizzix Plaid folder. The sentiment from Christmas Flourished Verses is framed with Spellbinders Petite Ovals and Fancy Tags 2.
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs: Christmas Flourished Verses, The Babe
Paper: Neenah Solar White (110 lbs)

Advisers hit out at FSA as Capita let off £4m fine
by Jun Merrett on Nov 26, 2012 at 14:45
Advisers have hit out at the Financial Services Authority's (FSA) decision not to impose a £4 million fine on Capita Financial Managers for its failings as authorised corporate director (ACD) for the funds.
The FSA has publicly censured Capita for a host of Arch Cru failings, but decided against the fine due to the costs Capita had already incurred related to Arch Cru. It added a fine would have forced Capita FM's parent to bail out the business.
Advisers with clients in the Arch Cru funds, who are facing payouts to investors as part of the FSA proposed £110 million Arch Cru redress scheme, have reacted with anger to the move.
Felixstowe-based adviser Paul Schwer, who has around £700,000 from 35 clients invested in the funds, said the FSA was operating double standards.
'Whether Capita could or could not afford the fine should be secondary to the FSA enforcing their rules and publicly naming and shaming wrongdoers,' he said. 'It seems like certain institutions are too big to fail. The IFA community are staggered to pay two or three times more compensation than Capita when every aspect of the Arch Cru funds were Capita's responsibility to administer.'
'It is the FSA's responsibility to enforce regulation with the larger institutions but it has failed to do so.'
Jim Clancy (pictured), partner of Northumberland-based Access Wealth Management, who has taken on a client with Arch Cru assets from another adviser, said the decision was 'totally unfair'.
'It doesn't seem like there is a level playing field to let Capita off the fine because of financial difficulties when there are advisers out there who won't be able to pay the consumer redress scheme.
'One of the lessons the FSA should learn is to ensure that instead of looking at our capital adequacy, [they should] ensure companies like Capita should have enough to meet their liabilities. Capita is a very big corporate group and it is getting away very, very lightly.'

@ Paul Mcelroy
If you look at G O's privileged background I would think a lot of his school friends are in senior positions all over the place.
Quite how he ever became Chancellor given his degree was in Modern History is a bit of a mystery as well.
Someone must have been financially astute though as according to Wikipedia he managed to get a 'Demyship' to cut his costs at Magdalen College and they were supposed to help poor students not the sons of wealthy Baronets.
No wonder they are so out of touch with us mere mortals.

License or tag expired? Better renew it before 6 p.m. today.
Florida's Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles online services will go offline from 6 p.m. tonight to 9 a.m. Monday, Sept. 10 as its servers are moved from one data center to another in Tallahassee. No appointments will be accepted in the state's driver's license offices on Monday and Tuesday due to the move.
The state encourages people whose tags expire today or already expired should visit www.GoRenew.com before 6 p.m. The website will be unavailable during the move.
The move is complex and will require a complete shutdown of all Highway Safety enterprise systems throughout the weekend. Customers will not be able to access online services, and employees will not have access to work email accounts during the weekend of the move.
Another outage is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 21. Online services will be unavailable during this phase, which Highway Safety estimates will take one to two days to complete. In-office services will not be affected for that move.
The move is part of the state's Data Center Consolidation plan. In 2008, Florida lawmakers passed legislation that mandates all state agency data centers and computing facilities to consolidate into state primary data centers by 2019.

Wichita State welcomes new professor and librarian, JJ Pionke
Oct 25, 2013 11:00 AM | Print
During her time in graduate school at the University of Michigan, JJ Pionke fulfilled a lifelong dream of purchasing an around-the-world plane ticket. The adventure that followed took her to Uganda and Singapore, giving her hands-on experience in her field of study and leading directly to her new position at Wichita State University.
In Uganda, Pionke interned at the National Archives of Uganda, serving as an archive team leader for a collection of 6,900 files. While in Singapore, she spent her time improving the National University of Singapore's information literacy program for incoming highly intellectual high school students from various Southeast Asian countries.
"The work was fun and interesting [in Singapore] and it really gave me a lot of perspective into how other people do things, especially with copyright, education outreach, with preservation of information, which is how I got interested in preservation to begin with," Pionke said.
After graduating in May 2013, Wichita State was an ideal move. This fall, Pionke accepted the position of assistant professor and Instruction and Research Services librarian. She comes to WSU with a wealth of knowledge as a teacher and information professional, with research interests in teaching pedagogy, information preservation and new learning modalities.
Time for a change
Becoming a librarian wasn't Pionke's original plan. She began her career teaching as an adjunct English professor in Chicago. After 10 years, Pionke decided it was time for a change.
Pionke saw librarianship as a way to stay connected to students, while still having intellectual engagement with the opportunity to research and publish. She earned her Master of Science in Information at the University of Michigan, which eventually led her to Wichita State.
Pionke said her main focus will be helping people. She will serve as an invaluable resource, specifically for Wichita State engineering, health professions and science students and professors, and her door will always be open.
"I like libraries. I like books. I like information. I like helping students," Pionke said.
Since starting at Wichita State, Pionke has appreciated the warm welcome from all her colleagues and is treating the move as a continuation of her around-the-world journey.
"I've lived in southern Japan. I've lived in London. I've lived in Singapore. I've lived in Uganda," she said. "Kansas? Why not? Here we go."

For more information on my GGGrandfather, please see my page (2Mulshine2) for him on Ancestry.Com. My cousin, sister and I have done extensive research, together with input from other family members, so everything you could need to know about his public life is there. He was an incredible public persona, but family stories don't translate well into dates and timelines, so you won't see exactly everything. - Janet

I am stunned that you sent this information to me. Last year I was searching, trying to verify that there was an actual body in that grave (which I visited in May). I spoke to the State Historical Society in Des Moines, and they said there would have to be a body to have a headstone, but the question was - were there any records to document that the body was sent from France? You have answered that question. This was all done in preparation for a speech I gave at a Civil War remembrance ceremony in Council Bluffs. I am a great-great granddaughter of Samuel Lyle and Harriet McCune Glasgow. Thank you so much! And isn't the obituary issue only if the newspaper is still in operation, such that it is a copyright issue? I will gladly add this information. - Janet Glasgow Mulshine
