The Veterans Memorial Association of Congers announced the Memorial Day Parade begins at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday on Kings Highway across from Bluebird Drive. Five divisions will be marching, starting with Clarkstown Police vehicles and Honor Guard. The Felix Festa Middle School Band will follow.
Next in the line of march will be the 2012 Honored Veterans: Jerry Donnellan, director of the Rockland County Veterans Services Agency, and Retired Marine with her retired military canine partner, Sgt. Rex. Joining them will be veterans' organizations including Vietnam Veterans, R.C. Detachment Marine Corps League and 82nd Airborne Division.
Division Two of the parade features Town of Clarkstown, Rockland County and New York State elected officials and members of the ambulance corps and youth group of the ambulance corps. The third division leads off with the Rockland County Sheriff's Honor Guard, Congers Elementary School Band, Rockland Rockets, Girl Scout troops and Congers Little League teams.
Marching in the fourth division is the Lakewood Elementary School Band, Boy Scout troops and packs, John XXIII Knights of Columbus and the Valley Cottage Indians. In the fifth and final division, marchers include the Congers Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary and Band, Valley Cottage Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary, Rockland Lake Fire Department, fire company vehicles and a Congers Valley Cottage Ambulance Corps vehicle.
The parade goes to the Veterans' Memorial Association of Congers headquarters on Lake Road. A ceremony will be held honoring all those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
On Monday, the 63rd Annual Memorial Day Parade kicks off at 10 a.m. in New City. The parade route begins at North Main Street and Calvary Drive and ends at the Rockland County Court House with a service. About 700 marchers are expected for the parade. For 63 years, the New City American Legion has sponsored the parade, which is believed to be the largest in the county.
Among the groups represented will be county veterans, local schools and business organizations from throughout Clarkstown. Clarkstown Chief of Police Michael Sullivan will deliver opening remarks for the memorial service at the courthouse and State Senator David Carlucci will be the guest speaker.
New City American Legion member John Bradley said the parade's purpose is "to remember those who have served our country and county."

First, the Unix permissions are checked. If they allow the operation, SEL checks it and either permits it or denies it based on the predefined roles that you have configured.
Let's go back to the purpose of SEL. It adds mandatory access controls (MAC) to Linux. It is designed for preventing bad programs from tampering with your data and comprising other security controls you might have on your system. These bad programs include both malicious applications and badly written code.
At the same time, SEL helps minimize the damage that can be done as the result of an intrusion. The trusted operating systems (referred to in Is SEL trustworthy?)(particularly ones that are labeled C2) certainly have a form of access controls, but were not really mainstream (not mandatory, accept for B1 and higher) and also offered a limited Mandatory Access Control (MAC) model.
SEL provides a very flexible and configurable MAC to Linux. It can help you enforce critical processing on your data and also to enforce various legal restrictions, including disclosure of sensitive data. If you are a part of an organization that is concerned about securing your data, it is incumbent upon you to determine how deploying SEL can help secure your environment. If you are mandated by government and/or other regulalatory agencies to secure your data, the importance of implementing SEL becomes that much greater.

Tunnel tolls: We have been let down by Merseytravel members
10:11am Wednesday 27th February 2013 in Letters
I WOULD just like to say as a regular tunnel user, how I feel very let down by our four elected councillors who sit on the Merseytravel board as Wirral members, Steve Foulkes, Ron Abbey, John Salter and Les Rowlands.
Whilst all four voted against the increase they obviously never stated Wirral's case strongly enough as they failed to gain one other vote or influence one other member of the board, and I wonder whether their 'NO' vote was a token gesture that still allows them to keep their well expensed (rumoured to be £20,000 plus each for a part time position) seats on the Merseytravel board.
Once again the people of Wirral have been let down by the elected councillors who should be fighting our corner.

Clearly there's an ideological agenda at work here: that agenda being that from a Merseytravel point of view, Wirral commuters are a cash cow to be milked as painfully and as often as possible.

WINE PORTO Porto is the Jewel of the crown of all wines, there is not a richer, more exuberating, full-bodied, flavoured, sensual and tasteful wine than Port Wine. It is the embodiment of perfection! In its categories, Tawny, Colheita or Vintage, and aged through fairy stories and pleasantries, the Porto wine, produced in the most ancient of the world's demarcated regions, is the most sumptuous wine that man has ever created. These wines are a must have with cheese, black chocolate desserts, orange or nuts. Dare to achieve the ultimate pleasure by pairing it with pigeon meat or a dish of game.
Pearl of the Atlantic, garden of delights, Madeira has created its own wine, owner of an intense perfume and a marvelous spontaneity, filled with flavoured, thick and poetical nuances. The Madeira wine is, just like its island, a very well hiden pearl which we absolutely need to discover. Others, like the Moscatel wine of Setúbal, are delicious accompaniments for soft, creamy cheeses and the best egg-baked conventry sweets. Boal, Terrantez, Malvasia, Verdelho or Sercial are discrete varieties but in line with its infinite beauty. Besides being a masterful apettizer, the Madeira wine goes well with exotic or oriental cuisine like curry or Chinese food. Take a risk. Taste Portugal.
The wines of the Casta Moscatel, in the region of Setúbal, are exquisite and rare gems. The grapes from the Castas Moscatel or Moscatel Roxo, harvested during a slightly matured phase, are partially fermented before the addition of wine brandy. After this process, that gives the beverage an alcoholic degree around 18º, the wine must mature for at least four years. Thus are produced wines either golden or shinny as topazes, with a fruity aromatic touch, of orange and honey, and a complex sweet flavour. These wines, which must be served never warmer than 11º, go perfectly with egg desserts. And our regional gastronomy includes several examples of this combination. The most ancient examples, with maturing stages superior to 20 years – mostly from the Moscatel Roxo vintages – are prizes of the rarest quality amongst the most famous wines in the world.
Finally the regional wines, of such Portuguese varieties as Alvarinho, Touriga Nacional, Trincadeira, Antão Vaz, Arinto or Encruzado, reveal the best of each one of our remarkable wine growing regions. WINETOURISM Winetourism has naturally become a very popular and sought after activity in Portugal. It is in the Alentejo and Douro regions that this new form of tourism has developed the most, but we can already find numerous actions throughout our whole country that enable the wine lover to be in touch with the production and nature of the drink. Many are the wineries and estates that open their doors and alow the tourist to take part in the grape harvest, to taste wines, visit wine cellars, among other options that are always coordinated with the regional hotels and restaurants. The desire to get to know more about the wine by accessing all sorts of information about it, from the production methods to the gastronomy, is the starting point to some intense journeys of flavors and aromas. Along the way we become richer with knowledge of the history, culture and traditions from the places where these nectars are produced.

Since the Anti ISA forum at the Malawati Stadium in Shah Alam some moths back, I had become disillusioned with public response. Checking my email, I noticed that Nat had sent the information about the candle light vigil to no more than 7 recipients.
I got to blog house at around 7 pm, and was met there by Zorro.
Not long after, the crowd trickled in. As it was an impromptu event, Nat opened the evening's proceedings with a short speech. He then introduced Zorro (Bernard Khoo) who conveyed Marina's regrets for not making the vigil as she had to meet her lawyers. Typical of him, he got the crowd going, before introducing Dato' Ambiga.
Dato Ambiga touched on the need for Malaysia to conform to the United Nations Charter on Human Rights. Citing the need to protect its citizens from 'a most reprehensible piece of legislation', that Malaysians do not deserve to be treated in this unhumane way. Dato Ambiga reminded those present that there are some 65 people that are still held under this act. She also announced that the BAR Council will be calling an EGM come Saturday. Reminding everyone that we need to keep in mind and speak up for those who can't, she also touched on the need for the media to continue to critically report news as it is, and for the citizenry to continue to stand up for their rights. She ended in asking where the detainees are kept, the process of interrogation and the continuing silence and denial of legal rights to RPK and YB Theresa Kok. Commending the action of YB Dato Zaid Ibrahim who threatened to leave his Ministerial post should the government continue to use the ISA, she finished by informing all her intention to write to the deputy Inspector General of Police.
Zorro, then provided information that a similar group had gathered in Penang for another candle light vigil. 600 people or so were gathered there.
Madeline from Bersih was then asked to give her views. She had known and worked with Theresa Kok for more than 7 years. She tried but she could not say anymore, overwhelmed by emotions. She was also one of the few who had spoken to YB Teresa Kok just before she was taken away by the Police.
He also asked for the resignation of the Dato Syed Hamid Albar, given the nonsensical statements he had recently made, which included arrest of Tan as a safety aspect!
A short while later, members of All Blogs (Zorro, Anuradha and this writer) committee present were introduced to the attendees, as well as bloggers present, including Shanghai Fish, Ancient Mariner, Fisherman's Wharf.
It was also pleasant to note that those present also shared their views and took to the mic voluntarily (thanks to Quenie and friends).
A small collection from some contributors was also collected in aid of Blog House (RM445)
Although Rocky could not make it, he was in agreement with YB Sivarasa on the need to have a forum soon enough to bring together the media.
For the security of those present, The Royal Malaysian Poilce provided 3 patrol cars and 3 unmarked cars manned by 12 personnel! 6 in uniform, and 6 others including the famed SB Camera Unit!

Life Extension, Longevity and Hydrogen SulfideThis study takes hydrogen sulfide (the stuff that makes rotten eggs for stinky) and put it in nematodes (tiny worms). When the nematodes lived in an environment where the air contained a low concentration of hydrogen sulfide, the worms did not hibernate metabolically, but their life span (and heat tolerance) still increased. This was repeated 15 times for confirmation and 77% of the exposed worms lived an average of 9.6 days longer than the non-exposed "control worms." This number of days may not sound like much to you and me. But to a nematode, it is a 70% increase in life span.
So, Why Does It Work?Good question and one that has no answer (yet). Researchers ruled out some complex explanations involving insulin and other genetic pathways. They now believe that the hydrogen sulfide helps regulate the SIR-2.1 gene, a gene known to be important in longevity. When this gene is "overactive," it can increase the lifespan of other worms (c. elegans) by 20%.
So Should I Do Aromatherapy with Rotten Eggs?Not yet. While the nematode has enough similarities with humans to be a great research model, there really isn't any evidence that living in an environment with higher hydrogen sulfide levels will extend life in humans. Researchers are excited about this line of research as a way of potentially "buying time" for critically ill patients by slowing their metabolism while waiting for treatment to take effect. But if you would like your nematodes to live 70% longer, you might consider this.

Q: I want to get rid of my Sony Visa card and move to another rewards credit card. I'm thinking about airline credit cards, probably American Airlines, since I live in Dallas. I have a Starwood AmEx already, and I have very good to excellent credit. Thoughts?
American Express is a CardRatings.com advertiser.
You've already got what some folks consider one of the best travel rewards credit cards on the market. However, a solid airline rewards card with a Visa or MasterCard logo can round out your wallet for those places that don't accept American Express.
Fortunately, with Dallas as your hub city, you've got some excellent options for earning even more rewards points and frequent flier miles when you take to the skies. Consider complementing your Starwood card with one of these airline credit cards:
Citi Platinum Select / AAdvantage World MasterCard. As you pointed out, living in Dallas connects you to more than 200 destinations in American Airlines' network, most of which use non-stop routes. Connections in Los Angeles, Chicago and Washington can get you to just about anywhere in the world using AAdvantage miles. With a traditional frequent flier program, AA can treat you to a one-way ticket for as few as 12,500 miles. This airline credit card also offers you your first eligible bag checked free on each flight, priority boarding with Group 1 privileges, and a host of American Airlines discounts. It's a great card if you work for a company that reimburses your airfare and uses American Airlines as its preferred carrier. Annual fee $95, waived for first 12 months.*
Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Plus Credit Card. Meanwhile, something else is happening over at Love Field. That's the Dallas home of Southwest Airlines, the disruptive economy carrier that has shaken the industry so hard that rivals like American Airlines and US Airways have considered merging. This airline credit card from Chase offers a flexible rewards program based on Southwest's revamped Rapid Rewards. Southwest's partner network can connect you to more than 800 destinations, opening up even more possibilities for travel.
Like most airline credit cards, both of these cards carry annual fees. In your case, you'll need to do some math to figure out whether you're getting a better deal by focusing all your spending on the generous Starwood card, or if a basic cash-back credit card will make a better replacement for your Sony Visa.
No Comments
- I use the Southwest Rapid Rewards Visa for personal and business flights. For everything else, I use Visa US Bank Flexperks card. I pay off my bill every month, have good credit and I fly a lot. Is there a reason I should switch from US Bank Flexperks to a difference rewards card such as American Express?
- Can you recommend a good card for visiting or living outside of the U.S.A.? Can I avoid foreign transaction fees? Will my information be safe?
- I pay off my bill every month. I really want miles for travel. What card is best for that without blackout dates?

Well, fancy that. A new leak is now available for BlackBerry Curve 3G (9300) owners. If you're a BlackBerry Curve 3G owner you're ahead of the 9330 as it just received 188.8.131.521 from Verizon. Give this OS a go and let us know how it works out for you all. Remember, back up your device before loading.
*OS Disclaimer - Please Read: Keep in mind this is NOT an official release and as such is not supported by RIM or your Carrier. If you choose to install, do so at your own risk and only if you're comfortable in the process of upgrading and downgrading your device software. It is quite normal during operating system development for certain features to be crippled or disabled while others are tested, and these beta builds often reflect that. They are not always better. Depending on your BlackBerry comfort level, it may be best for you to wait for community feedback on a build before deciding to download and install for yourself or simply wait for the next official release. If you require support, you will find it in our CrackBerry forums via our extremely knowledgeable community base - do not contact your carrier or RIM for Beta OS technical support (their first course of action will be to advise you to downgrade to a supported OS). *

You don't download this software, you download the 9330 version from verizon, the link to it is in the post about the verizon official (188.8.131.521) for the 9650 and 9330, once downloaded to your desktop, double click the icon and install it to your computer, search windows for the vendor.xml file, delete vendor.xml, search for loader.exe, double click loader.exe, plug phone into computer, click next on the app loader, let it find the 6.0 software you installed, pick the apps you want to install or not install to your phone, click finish and let it do the work! Its easy, and there's plenty of help info in the forums section! The most important part is downloading the correct software though, 9300 software will brick your 9330
Culex316 Jan 27, 2011 at 11:45 am
9300 software won't brick his 9330, App Loader won't even let it install.
mrtouchedme Jan 28, 2011 at 10:04 am
Did I say app loader would install it? I implied that if it was on the phone it would brick it...

DIAMOND DISPATCH: Three Vols up heading into the weekend
Setting the table for the Tennessee baseball team as it prepares for the last weekend of action outside of the SEC.
On the heels of a drama-filled win on Wednesday and less than a week after upsetting Texas in the Houston College Classic, the Vols are back at Lindsey Nelson Stadium this evening to open a three-game set with Louisiana-Monroe.
Plenty of Vols have done things to feel good about as they close in on a month of action -- and these three guys might be the hottest.
Pitcher/first baseman/outfielder
Last time out: The junior absolutely crushed a two-run home run to the deepest part of the yard in the win over Ball State, which capped another big outing at the plate. Steckenrider added another hit, two walks and a pair of runs to continue his solid offensive start. Even better for the Vols, he was electric on the mound with two perfect innings -- striking out five and making it look easy.
For the season: .389 average, three home runs, four doubles, seven RBI and 15 walks at the plate; 1-1, 2.92 ERA, 16 strikeouts, seven walks on the mound.
What next?: Officially the last spot in the rotation has yet to be determined as coach Dave Serrano shuffles it for the first time in the young season, a change prompted by a couple rough outings by Steckenrider. But with the stuff he showed on Wednesday and the low number of pitches thrown, it's safe to assume Steckenrider will be on the hill at the end of the series.
Last time out: The senior delivered a couple hits in four at-bats, including his second double of the season thanks to pure hustle on a ball that wasn't hit all that hard to left field. He scored a pair of runs and also drew a walk.
For the season: .356 average, two doubles, a triple, a home run, seven walks and nine RBI.
What next?: Pierce is getting on base at a high clip in the three-spot, which will continue to be important with Steckenrider batting behind him in the order. But he's been most impressive with his defense in the outfield, particularly with a strong arm that is regularly discouraging runners from testing him -- lest they add to his total of three assists already this year.
Last time out: The junior solidified his spot in the rotation and made his case to lead it with seven innings of solid work in the biggest victory of the young season for the Vols. In the upset of Texas, Godley allowed eight hits and three runs, but he was efficient with his pitches and kept the Longhorns off balance with a sharp changeup to stay unbeaten in three starts.
For the season: 2-0, three starts, 2.12 ERA, 17 innings, 13 strikeouts, two walks.
What next: Godley gets his first chance to lead off the weekend on the hill against a team that has shown some pop early in the year and has some nice wins already to its credit. The Warhawks have nine home runs so far this season, including three from Joey Rapp, and they've knocked off Tulane and Southern Mississippi outside of league play.

Dear CEO and CFO at JBLU. Help me get my dignity back.
November 9, 2010
Hi, my name is Nicole. I'm a hard working US citizen and I feel that our rights are being violated and taken away from us at record breaking speeds. Last night, I got to thinking about an upcoming flight I'm taking. The thought of the overly-intrusive pat downs and virtual strip searches of the new scanners made me go into a panic attack.
I'm now reaching out to the CEO and CFO of Jet Blue for help. The airline company leaders are the ones that can make a real difference in helping simple Americans gain their rights and dignity back.
Oh where, oh where have my little rights gone?
October 22, 2010
I don't like to get into politics or policy debates that often but this morning I had Good Morning America on in another room when I heard about the story of Michael Roberts. He is a professional pilot who refused a full body scan and was grounded. Read more of the story here.
But, Michael, good for you.
Have you been through the airport's new search techniques recently? Holy crap. As Michael and his legal council put it, "it's a virtual strip search".
Infuriating, unnecessary and humiliating. Where the hell have our rights gone people?!
Have you been through a similar search and want to vent…let it out here.
Sometimes we need a little push
August 7, 2010
This is especially true when you are a small business owner or independent artists. You have to kick your own butt and well sometimes that can be tiring. Other times, you get so stuck in the day-to-day you forget about thinking strategically to help you and your business grow.
Sometimes you have to call in the big guns and hire a life coach. I was very lucky to run into a wonder life and career coach, Julie Melillo. She is the owner of the Manhattan-based coaching company: www.yourdreamslifecoach.com. Ambitious, wonderful and client driven. It's worth the investment in yourself and your business!

The Words and Wisdom of Doris
July 24, 2010
If you take the time to read some of my sometimes wildly long product descriptions, you'll find embedded stories about how I stumbled across fun products that I bring to Darn Good Yarn-ers!
Ever since watching Julie and Julia, it's made me fall in love with my kitchen. No, I'm not making everything Julia Child's style because I don't have a defibrillator in my dining room. But I do like putting an apron on and chopping stuff and experimenting.
Actually, I have a funny story for you! Last weekend, I made gluten free chocolate chip cookies. For me, they were light, sort of like thick crepes. It was perfect for me. I said to my husband Mike, "You must have one! These are the best cookies ever!". So, he starts eating it. I tell you, he had the saddest "Cookie Eating Face" I have ever seen. He said, "You said these were the best cookies ever'. Ouch…. I guess I needed a couple of more sticks of butter, some lard, maybe deep fried them and it would have been good!
So, a girl needs an apron. In my case, aprons. Enter, Doris! I found her wonderful aprons on etsy!
Darn Good Yarn now sells a couple of wonderful items she makes just for us crafters too:
But this morning, Doris emailed me and a few sentences stuck out in her email that I wanted to share with you:
remember, all the work can wait for a day – one must take time to enjoy themselves. I didn't learn that until I took early retirement and I almost learned it the hard way. Now – I believe that 1/3 of our time should be work, 1/3 of our time for family and 1/3 of our time to just simply enjoy life
Have a wonderful weekend everyone! ~Nicole

I love your emails!
September 27, 2009
I love getting your emails!
One of Darn Good Yarn's Fans sent me this article about Stress Eating and Knitting…. hmm I wonder if I knit really really fast if I can burn the pounds off… Enjoy!
Did you know that knitting may be the perfect antidote to stress eating? So if you think knitting isn't cool, you may just want to reconsider.
A 2009 study published in the journal of Eating and Weight Disorders put knitting to the test. The researchers wanted to see if knitting had any notable clinical benefits and whether it could be a useful tool in helping people lessen the amount of obsessing they do about food and their weight.
Avid knitters have been telling us for years about the therapeutic benefits of knitting. But how could it help prevent comfort eating? In part, the rhythmic movements and clicking of the needles can put you into a zone-like state. It is much like the trance comfort eaters experience while chewing on food. Thinking about nothing is boring and often a trigger for mindless eating. Doing something easy yet productive, like knitting, is a welcome mini break for an overloaded, stressed out mind.
The Study: The participants in this study were seeking treatment at an eating disorder treatment facility. In other words, these were people who chronically struggle with anxious thoughts about food and their weight. Their issues are generally much more intense than the typical emotional eater (so if it works for them, it is likely to work for you).
Intervention: The participants were taught how to knit and given supplies.
Results: The results? Overall, the participants reported that they were much less preoccupied with anxious thoughts of food and weight while knitting.
Almost three quarters of the participants indicated that knitting helped them in these ways:
Lessened the intensity of their fears and thoughts about food/weight/shape
Helped to clear their mind
Reportedly had a calming and therapeutic effect
Why it Works: It is difficult to worry about food and do a visual spatial task at the same time. Something has to give. Also, creating something such as a blanket or scarf feels productive. Not to mention that you get a sense of achievement when you've mastered a new skill.
What if I Hate Knitting & Crafts But Need Help With Comfort Eating? That's okay. We aren't all meant to spin yarn into something crafty. If you don't like knitting, try another visual spatial task (video games, puzzles, cross-stitching, painting, computer games). Or, see 50 Ways to Soothe Yourself Without Food which has a variety of other ideas on calming yourself without food.
So, the moral of the story: Take a knitting lesson from your grandmother or a class online. If you are a comfort eater, find a visual spatial task like knitting to keep your hands busy and give your mind a place to rest without food.
Given how easy and inexpensive knitting is, it is worth a try.

"Tennesseans hold their elected officials to a higher standard and expect them to work tirelessly on their behalf."
—Tennessee Republican Party Chairman Chris Devaney—head of the party that gave us Sen. Stacey Campfield—in a press release last Thursday attacking Democratic Rep. Gloria Johnson. The press release accused her of everything from having "stood against Knox County teachers" to "harassing and opposing" Gov. Haslam's education policies. Johnson is a teacher herself.

Mushroom effect
Grammarian pedants abound, so likely as not, one has already pointed out to Barry Saunders the presumptuousness of his critics ("Grammar slip won't deter me" Jan. 21) in charging the error of the sentence, "I seek out misspelled words the way those truffle-hunting dogs sniff out that buried and expensive French fungi," to the improper number of the comparative clause's direct object.
No, in the real world – and I'm positive that's the one most canines inhabit, and the one Barry had in mind when drawing the analogy – dogs do not hunt down one singular buried mushroom any more than pooches, as a general habit, consult the taxonomic classification of flora before going in search of it. If they did, then that fungal genus would have been extinct millennia ago after its first successful harvest.
Rather, it was Barry's failure to use the relative pronoun "those" in place of "that" where the mistake was truly buried. And besides, I thought the French preferred using pigs to locate their wild truffles. Oui?

Finding Role Models for People Young and Old
Many parents, employers, and young entrepreneurs are looking for role models for their kids, staff and themselves. Where to start? Here is one idea: Role Models on Paper from the new beta site: The Hot Mommas Project free case study library. Below you will find more on the project, as well as suggested exercise for parents, educators, and young entrepreneurs.
The Hot Mommas® Project produces curricula for dynamic female leaders. However, as you will see below that the cases are appropriate for both young men and women seeking role models. On of the main reasons is the award-winning case studies showcase not only successful business practices, but also successful personal practices including the identification of leadership abilities and work-life balance strategies. The project is housed at the George Washington University School of Business. The project is popular in the social media community – hence the edgy name – and allows instructors the opportunity to connect with case protagonists on their Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other pages.
Suggested Exercise:
Need a student or young adult to tap into their potential? As a creative extra credit assignment or family book club, have your young role model write their own mini case study (500-1500 words). Use the case study wizard at www.HotMommasProject.org beta site (About). Here is what to do:
- Prep the student with the template at the bottom of this page.
- Have students choose "Create a new case" at www.HotMommasProject.org (must be 18 or older).
- Women choose "F" and men choose "M" in their profile.
- Move through the case wizard steps, click "publish at the end."
- Go to "Case Library", click "View" and send you the link as proof they have completed their case study.
Bonus: If their case study is good enough, they could be published in a top Prentice Hall textbook, other media outlets, plus receive thousands of dollars in prizes as part of the case study competition through January 31. See judging criteria.
For more information, click this post.
To nominate your young role model, click this post.
For virtual coaching, click here.
Here are two examples of case studies by students/young adults.
Alternative exercise:
Sign in at www.HotMommasProject.org and select 5 cases to read. Answer the following questions:
1. Which is your favorite, and why?
2. Which person is the strongest professional role model, and why?
3. Which person is the strongest personal role model, and why?
4. Do you think it's possible for someone to be both a personal and a professional role model? Discuss.

Article V of the Constitution spells out the processes by which constitutional amendments can be proposed and ratified.
To Propose Amendments
- In the U.S. Congress, both the House of Representatives and the Senate approve by a two-thirds supermajority vote, a joint resolution amending the Constitution. Amendments so approved do not require the signature of the President of the United States and are sent directly to the states for ratification.
- Two-thirds of the state legislatures ask Congress to call a national convention to propose amendments. (This method has never been used.)
To Ratify Amendments
- Three-fourths of the state legislatures approve it, or
- Ratifying conventions in three-fourths of the states approve it. This method has been used only once -- to ratify the 21st Amendment -- repealing Prohibition.
The Supreme Court has stated that ratification must be within "some reasonable time after the proposal." Beginning with the 18th amendment, it has been customary for Congress to set a definite period for ratification. In the case of the 18th, 20th, 21st, and 22nd amendments, the period set was 7 years, but there has been no determination as to just how long a "reasonable time" might extend.
Of the thousands of proposals that have been made to amend the Constitution, only 33 obtained the necessary two-thirds vote in Congress. Of those 33, only 27 amendments (including the Bill of Rights) have been ratified.

Modern smartphones struggle to eke out a day or two of moderate use as it is without malicious folk tapping into your battery; sadly, researchers at UC Davis have apparently managed to do exactly that, exploiting fundamental flaws in the way most phones handle the MMS protocol to drain juice. It seems the trouble stems from "junk data" sent via MMS, which causes the phone to wake from standby, realize the data doesn't constitute a valid message, and discard it, all without any notification to the user. Rapidly repeat the process, and, well, you can see where this leads. All the attacker needs is the target phone's number, and before you know it, your battery's history (the researchers were able to do the deed at about 20 times the normal drain rate, to be exact). Their work wasn't all gloom and doom, though -- another MMS exploit allowed the wily grad students to fire off messages free of charge. Of course, with a dead battery, you won't be firing off much of anything.

Jeter singles and doubles in first Triple-A rehab gameBy
In his first minor league rehab game with Triple-A Scranton, Derek Jeter went 2-for-3 with a double to left and an infield single on a ball hit up the middle. He also tried to lay down a sacrifice (!) before bunting the ball foul and eventually reaching on a fielder's choice to first. The Cap'n fielded just two ground balls in his five innings at shortstop, making the play on one and booting the other for an error. I'm not exactly sure what the plan is going forward, but Jeter and his strained calf are expected to remain with the RailRiders for at least one more game on Friday.
15 Comments»
They are probably eyeing the Jays series starting Monday the 26th, but I wish they waited to they got back home for the O's on Friday the 30th.
Don't want Jeter anywhere near artificial turf.
he loves hitting at rogers centre. i bet they roll the dice
Let's say the earliest he would play is Saturday, the latest is Sept. 1st, assuming no setbacks. What would be a good compromise? You don't wanna push him, but once he's really ready to go, you would never let him rot in Scranton. I say let him play 3 full games at SS, mix in 1 at DH and a day off, and he should come back next Wednesday, assumign no setbacks. By then, he should be good and ready, assuming no setbacks.
And no, I'm not gonna delay him for another 4 days til Sept 1 (assuming no setbacks) so we can potentially save a roster spot for Melky Mesa as a pinch runner in the playoffs. The difference between Jeter and not Jeter in those 4 games (assuming no setbacks) could really mean making the playoffs or not. Gotta get in before you can dance, assuming no setbacks.

A special constable has been stabbed to death outside her home - days after she challenged three burglars there.
Nisha Patel-Nasri, 29, was off duty and in her night clothes when she was attacked in Sudbury Avenue, Wembley, in north-west London, late on Thursday.
Neighbours, who alerted police after they heard her scream, gave her first aid but she was later pronounced dead in hospital, Scotland Yard said.
A man wearing a hooded top was seen running away towards Harrow Road.
Police said they were looking at the attempted burglary, in which three men tried to get into the house through the front door, as one line of inquiry.
The men left after Mrs Patel-Nasri challenged them as they tried to get into the front porch on Saturday night.
The hairdresser was alone at the house she shared with her husband, Fadi Nasri, before Thursday's attack took place.
Mr Nasri, who ran a limousine hire company from home, had gone out for the evening.
Neighbours reported hearing a disturbance in the street and they administered first aid to Mrs Patel-Nasri.
Appealing for witnesses at the murder scene Det Supt Julian Worker said: "I know that a lot of you have seen the blood in the street already and clearly she suffered a fatal wound to her leg.
"What we believe has happened is that she has come out of her house in her night dress and has dealt with something in the street.
"Neighbours have heard her screaming and have come to her aid.
"I don't know what caused her to leave her house in a night dress shortly before midnight."
Det Supt Worker said two cars of high value were parked outside at the time.
"Those vehicles may have been the cause of attention to somebody," he said.
BBC reporter Daniela Ralph said police were not making any connection between Mrs Patel-Nasri's role as a special constable and her death.
Scotland Yard described her as a popular member of the Metropolitan Police's Special Constabulary in the London Borough of Brent.
Met Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair described the death of Mrs Patel-Nasri as a "huge loss" to the force.
"Our hearts go out to Nisha's husband and family and friends.
"It is a tragedy that a young woman who willingly gave up so much of her valuable free time to work as a police officer in her local community should lose her life in this terrible way.
"Nisha was, I'm told, tremendously popular with her colleagues, who regarded her as a real team player."
A section of Sudbury Avenue has been cordoned off while forensics teams carry out a search of the area.
Specials have the same powers as regular police. They assist officers, carrying out their duties in their spare time.

Condolences to friends and family.

A Nice B&B in Northern VT A review of Phineas Swann Bed and Breakfast Inn
Just got back from a 7-day ski vacation to the Jay Peak area in Northern Vermont. My wife and I spent the week at Phineas Swann B&B and enjoyed our time there thoroughly. We reserved a room (about 3 months ahead) with a queen bed but because a large group was there, we were moved to a larger room (small suite) in the converted barn that had a fireplace, TV (w/VCR combo and cable channels), small refrig., couch, fan, and tub jacuzzi. Everything was clean and well cared for, but missing was tissue, a needed commodity during the winter. The shoveling of the snow on the walkway to the parking lot and the barn could have been done better too.
Afternoon tea in the wood stove-heated den was a delightful addition after a day of skiing. The included coffee cake and/or to-die-for brownies were a nice touch.
Michael, Glenn's partner, died suddenly last Dec. '04 but Glenn has carried on, apparently, without a hitch. Vitrually everything was done to please the guests and the breakfasts were varied, tasty, and filling.
There is talk that the B&B is up for sale and you should check with the owner to see if it has changed hands.

Houston, We Have A Problem: CampusLink Moves Out
Remember that last remaining vestige of the early 2000s, the dusty old CampusLink corner in Houston Market? The one with Gateway computer ads and echoes of Napster? It's gone. Yup, covered in caution tape and filled with stacked chairs and tables. It's like a crime scene from "CSI," but filled with the memories of the dot-com bubble instead of bodies. What do you think should go in the space? Tell us in the comments.

A little red brick building with a dark red aluminum awning sits vacant on piece of prime corner real estate in Downtown Trenton.
The building at 2920 West Jefferson has limitless potential and rests nearby local businesses that have already established a customer base.
Thriving businesses will lead to the success and improvement of the downtown area according to City Administrator Jim Wagner. But, what businesses are likely to succeed?
What would you like to see take over the vacant building at 2920 West Jefferson Avenue in Downtown Trenton?
To get the ball rolling, I will offer my suggestion. I'd like to see a quaint ice cream shop and short order restaurant that specializes in sliders take over the corner spot. It seems like a great place to congregate with friends, eat and enjoy the summer.
Now tell me what you think!

While I've certainly seen art house horror on DVD or in the theater, I don't think I've ever seen anyone try to pull off that sort of vibe in the realm of video games.
Enter Tale of Tales, a company whose previous efforts were less about traditional gameplay ideals and more about involving the player completely in the world they constructed. Be it an MMO where you play a human-faced deer (Endless Forest) or an "interactive painting" of an old woman in a cemetery (The Graveyard), their concepts are peculiar but wholly involving.
Their track record of high-concept uniqueness continues with The Path, a "game" retelling the story of Little Red Riding Hood, albeit with six sisters instead of the lone heroine of the original, each charged with taking the path to Grandmother's house. Of course the story, and thus the game, would be pretty dry if Red stuck to the path… To explain any more would be criminal, so instead I point you to the game's trailer.
Additional info can be found at Grandmother's House (which is almost as haunting as the game itself) as well as Tale of Tales' developer blog.
The Path will be available for download on March 18th for $9.99 via the game's website, Steam, and Direct2Drive for Windows XP and Vista. Keep your eyes on FEARnet for a full review!

Coming into the season, a tournament berth for the seemed like a goal that would be hard to reach according to many experts.
But, Stoughton was able to overcome the critics, and a 1-5 start, and earn a berth in the MIAA state tournament Monday afternoon when they defeated , 4-1.
With the win, the Black Knights are 9-4 in their last 13 games, improving to 10-9 overall. The team is assured of finishing the season with a record of at least .500 and tied for second place in the Hockomock League's Davenport Division. Stoughton had to reach at least one of these thresholds to qualify.
Junior Mike Dixon pitched yet another near-flawless game for Stoughton, as he earned his first win of the season, despite an ERA under 1.00. Dixon pitched all 7 innings only allowing one run to the Bulldogs.
The offense got off to a hot start when Dixon himself hit an RBI single, driving in Jamie Connors, to give him his first run of run support on the season in the bottom of the second.
Canton tied the game 1-1 in the top of the third.
But, Stoughton was able to capitalize on some Canton mistakes, had some timely bunting from sophomore Zach Gibb, and had some heads-up base running. The team scored three times in the fifth with Will McGrath, Mike Gallagher and pinch runner Michael Milavec crossing the plate, pushing the lead to 4-1.
Junior Captain Pat Jackman was pleased with his teams performance.
"This game is the true definition of Stoughton baseball. Good hitting, great pitching and most importantly great defense is what propelled us into the tournament today, and we are going to need to keep it up in order to make a deep run."
Gallagher, a sophomore, reflected on the adversity his team overcame this year.
"Not many people picked us to be a good team. We are not a team that gets a whole lot of attention, but we like it that way. We are a team that no one is going to want to face come tournament time."
"These kids really came together and worked hard. They played great ball," coach Mike Armour added. "Hopefully we have the type of team that can not only make the tourney, which is done now, which feels great, but hopefully make some noise in the tourney."
The Knights will look to move up in the seedings when they travel to North Attleboro for the Hockomock crossover Wednesday afternoon.
Stoughton Patch editor Jeffrey Pickette contributed reporting.

"North America" - Discovery Channel and Animal Planet animal series
I have never posted here because I have no pets, yet animals are a passion.
I have been watching a series on Discovery Channel and now I see it on Animal Planet, narrated by Tom Selleck entitled "North America".
I find this the most amazing animal series ever. The nature/animal/geographical photography are spectacular, Tom's voice over is soothing, the narrative is like poetry -- so descriptive and unusual, and the insertion of appropriate music for the particular scene is genius (IMHO).
This is one of those programs (7 in the series) that I could watch uncounted repeats. Just fascinating.
Has anyone else seen it and had a similar reaction? Thanks for reading -- I just had to write this down somewhere!
I have not seen it, but will be sure to watch for it (thanks for sharing). Will also check the DC/AP web sites to see if they run repeats on line?
I've just watched them all afternoon -- again. Here's the music list I mentioned above:
Sounds like a really good series of programs, MLV, I'll have to watch for them. Thanks for posting.

Background: Glutamate deregulation may be involved in the neuropathology of schizophrenia, mainly through N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor dysfunction. Memantine, a drug approved by the FDA for the treatment of moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease, acts as a weak nonselective NMDA receptor antagonist. The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of memantine as an adjunctive treatment to clozapine in patients with refractory schizophrenia.
Method: In this double-blind, placebo-controlled study, outpatients with refractory schizophrenia according to DSM-IV clinical criteria were randomly assigned, from March 2005 to February 2008, to receive either 20 mg/d memantine (n = 10) or placebo (n = 11), in addition to clozapine, for 12 weeks. The primary outcome measure was the total score on the 18-item Brief Psychiatry Rating Scale (BPRS) and BPRS subscales of positive and negative symptoms. Secondary outcomes were global severity of disease as measured by the Clinical Global Impressions scale (CGI), cognition as assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and extrapyramidal symptoms as assessed by the Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS).
Results: Twenty-one participants completed the study and were used in the analysis. Significant improvement (P < .01) on the total BPRS score, its subscales of positive (effect size [ES] = −1.38) and negative (ES = –3.33) symptoms, the CGI score (ES = 1.56), and the MMSE score was observed with memantine as compared with placebo. No significant changes in extrapyramidal symptoms were observed.
Conclusions: Memantine add-on to clozapine therapy was associated with improvement in negative and positive symptoms in refractory schizophrenia patients.

Makamba, B.B. (1993) Studies in fuzzy groups. PhD thesis, Rhodes University.
In this thesis we first extend the notion of fuzzy normality to the notion of normality of a fuzzy subgroup in another fuzzy group. This leads to the study of normal series of fuzzy subgroups, and this study includes solvable and nilpotent fuzzy groups, and the fuzzy version of the Jordan-Hõlder Theorem. Furthermore we use the notion of normality to study products and direct products of fuzzy subgroups. We present a notion of fuzzy isomorphism which enables us to state and prove the three well-known isomorphism theorems and the fact that the internal direct product of two normal fuzzy subgroups is isomorphic to the external direct product of the same fuzzy subgroups. A brief discussion on fuzzy subgroups generated by fuzzy subsets is also presented, and this leads to the fuzzy version of the Basis Theorem. Finally, the notion of direct product enables us to study decomposable and indecomposable fuzzy subgroups, and this study includes the fuzzy version of the Remak-Krull-Schmidt Theorem.

NFL Quarterback Michael Vick has been booted from the Atlanta Falcons training camp.
That punishment follows a grand jury indictment of Vick on felony charges for running a dog fighting operation.
Raids at Vick's home turned up what federal investigators say is evidence of a vicious dog fighting ring.
Vick is scheduled to be arraigned on Thursday on felony charges.
The quarterback will still be paid even though he won't be practicing with the rest of the team.

Carriage Towne News
---- — Bipartisanship Needed
In the October 31 edition of this paper, Mr. Robert Dezmelyk entered the ongoing discussion about Obamacare. Whether or not I agree with his conclusions, it was less his argument that got my attention, than the manner in which he presented his opinion. He is clearly passionate about his viewpoint, but without resorting to name-calling and wild accusations about the motives of those who might disagree. I respect his approach.
Unlike the civil tone of his letter, most of the rhetoric these days is the equivalent of someone waving their fist in your face. Because of this toxic climate, I have been conditioned to react defensively and stubbornly when those with different political views criticize programs which I support. That instinctive reaction is only heightened when the language of their arguments insults me for my values. To his credit, Mr. Dezmelyk did not do that, perhaps because he understands that such an approach is rarely effective in changing minds.
The national debate about Obamacare is really about different visions for confronting two fundamental issues in our healthcare system: cost and access. Although solutions that satisfy the core concerns of most constituencies surely exist, we can't address them if we cannot understand those concerns, talk about ways to resolve them, and negotiate more on substance and less on ideology.
My own monthly health care premiums on the day I retired in April were 2.5 times what they were a decade before. Increased co-pays and co-insurance make that number even higher. I don't care which party you support, that is too much. On this, Mr. Dezmelyk and I surely agree.
He also raises the important issue of access, albeit from a different perspective, that of limited choice in providers. I also have worried about access, but less from the concern of losing my doctor than from being denied coverage as a cancer patient.
I would like Mr. Dezmelyk to keep his doctors and hospitals without his premiums going through the roof. And I bet he wouldn't wish me the nightmare of returning to a system where I could be denied coverage and bankrupted simply because I had the misfortune to get cancer. Maybe Mr. Dezmelyk and I could sit down and resolve these problems in bipartisan collaboration, unlike our Congress in Washington.
