The war against Slobodan Milosevic was clearly lost when the London
papers ran a front-page photograph of Defence Secretary George Robertson in Italy aboard a
warplane. This isn't a war, it's a photo op for politicians who have never seen
battle. With friends like British prime minister Tony Blair and his comic book hero, Bill
Clinton, Kosovo's Albanians will be lucky to find tent space in exile. Those who have
survived Serbian pogroms are making their way to Macedonia, Montenegro and Albania, while
NATO aircraft overhead do nothing to stop the Serbs from making them permanent refugees.
In 1948, the Palestinians made a similar trek to Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Gaza, while
the Arab armies watched them.
The Palestinians could have warned the Kosovar Albanians about
allies who bluster and bomb, but either cannot or will not defend them from dispossession
and destruction. The Arab states promised the kind of support NATO is giving the
Albanians: that is, the kind guaranteed to antagonise their enemies into expelling them
once and for all. Seven Arab states declared war on the new state of Israel in May 1948.
"Then," the Palestinian writer Constantine Zurayk noted, "when the moment
arrived, the fire proved to be low and dull, the steel and iron, rusty, bent and
susceptible to quick damage and disintegration, and the bombs, hollow, empty and
NATO's bombs are not harmless, but they are doing no harm at
allto the Serb forces attacking Albanians.
The Arab leaders of 1948 were bullshit artists, who raised the
Palestinians' hopes only to let them down. What is NATO doing to prevent the
dispossession of the new Palestinians of the Balkans? Bombing from the relative safety of
the skies and seas. If that fails, and it is failing, they'll bomb again.
The Kosovar Albanians, like the Arabs of 1948 Palestine, are the
majority population in their disputed land. As the Arabs were, they are peasants without
the weapons to resist a minority population that demands all the land for itself. The
Palestinian Arabs should have sought a realistic agreement with the Zionist settlers, but
the braggadocio of the Arab governments let them believe they would prevail without
compromise. Arab newspapers were crying for Israeli blood, and Islamic demonstrators as
far away as Singapore demanded justice for Palestine's Arabs. No Arab leader had the
courage to announce the simple fact that they could not beat the Israelis. Instead, seven
Arab states declared war on a new country they could not defeat. The Arab armies never
fielded more than 40,000 poorly-trained troops against Israel's 60,000 well-armed
fighters. Jordan had already made a secret agreement with the Israeli leadership to
partition the country. Most serious Israeli historians now confirm that the Haganah and
other Jewish forces used the Arab invasion as cover to expel most of Palestine's
Kosovo's Albanians are suffering the same fate for the same
reason. Much of the British and American press was screaming for war against the brutal
Slobodan Milosevic. Blair and Clinton were glad to oblige – so long as no one from
NATO got hurt. The air war is as effective in protecting them as the Arab invasion of
Israel was in saving Palestine's Arabs, but London and Washington will not admit it.
Here are the myths Clinton and Blair are asking us to believe: that
Milosevic will cave into NATO; that the Albanians are going to return home; that they will
again be a majority in Kosovo; that Albanian refugees will not destabilise their
neighbours as the Palestinian refugees did in Jordan in 1970 and Lebanon in 1975; that the
war is somehow both legal, despite the UN Charter, and right, despite the destruction of
Albanian Kosovo, the Serbian opposition to Milosevic and the fledgling Montenegran
independence movement.
The British government's overseas development minister, Clare
Short, assures an incredulous British public that the Serbs will allow the refugees to
return. What will Britain and the US do if Milosevic doesn't? Bomb him? How many of
Bosnia's Muslims have returned to their homes near the mass graves of Srebrenica
since Dayton?
Meanwhile, the BBC has reverted to its traditional role of trying to
suppress news that might distress the folks at home. The award-winning BBC radio
journalist Tim Llewellyn, who was threatened with death by the Syrians in Beirut in the
late 1970s, returned from Belgrade just before the bombing with a report on the daily
lives of ordinary Serbs. When the bombing began, the BBC killed his story. Llewellyn,
outraged, publicly accused the BBC of cowardice and censorship. The state-run corporation
became even more cowardly, backing down by running his report late at night. It did not
list the report, as is customary, in the newspaper guides and edited in a historian who
put the report into "perspective" by saying how awful the Serbs were. The BBC
could teach Milosevic about propaganda.
Meanwhile, Tony Blair's government complains – much as the
US did when CNN's Peter Arnett stayed in Baghdad in 1991 – that the BBC's
distinguished correspondent John Simpson is reporting unfairly from Belgrade. He is one of
the few reporters to have stayed behind there, at risk to himself. He is telling his
audience what all of us who have reported from the foreign capitals (Tripoli, Beirut,
Baghdad et al) the US has targeted: bombs kill people and force them into the arms of, in
this case, the dictator whom they would gladly have strangled until the US started a war
and made him a patriot.
Never mind that the US in 1946 wrote and signed the Charter of the
United Nations that made such attacks illegal. But, for God's sake, don't
consign the Kosovar Albanians to the fate of Palestine's Arabs: to be forgotten by
the West, despised by their host populations and dreaming forever of returning their lost
orchards, farms and cities. Will they be consoled by the sight of a British Defence
Secretary in the grounded cockpit of a warplane in Italy, looking like a toy soldier?

Sony seems to be jumping the CES gun a little bit, with press shots of two of its upcoming smartphones popping up on its Japanese website on New Year's Day.
Both phones are part of Sony's Xperia line, with the Z "Yuga" and the ZL "Odin" making their appearances in the two head-on press shots. The handsets will supposedly have similar, if not identical, specs, with the main difference being their sizes; the ZL Odin has a slightly sleeker frame, but maintains the same 5-inch 1080p LCD display as the Z Yuga.
Given that there has not been an official announcement for these handsets yet, specs are still but a rumor and are unconfirmed. However, under the hood of the Z Yuga and ZL Odin you will supposedly find a quad-core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon S4 processor, 2 GB of RAM, Adreno 320 graphics, and a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera. Curiously enough, the front-facing camera on the ZL Odin appears to be below the display in the lower right corner.
We don't know much about the two devices beyond that, but with CES right around the corner, we probably won't have to wait too long for an official reveal.

Cover Story
Could bankruptcy be the answer?
Published: August 8, 2012
The consequences are far-reaching.
Last year, Alabama's Jefferson County filed the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history when it declared it was unable to deal with debt totaling more than $4.2 billion. The primary reason for its financial downfall, as reported by the Bloomberg news service, was a massive sewer project "dogged by political corruption" and a "derivative-laden" refinancing scheme.
Until recently, municipal bankruptcies, which fall under Chapter 9 of the federal bankruptcy code, have been relatively rare. Even when the law first came into effect, to help cities struggling to survive during the Great Depression, it wasn't widely used.
New York City declared bankruptcy in the 1970s. In 1994, Orange County — one of California's most populous and prosperous counties — filed for bankruptcy. As the New York Times reported, officials in that county accused Merrill Lynch and other Wall Street firms of encouraging the county treasurer to "borrow hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of the county and to invest in exotic, highly volatile securities." The resulting losses totaled more than $1.7 billion by the time OC went belly-up.
In the Pennsylvania capital of Harrisburg, city officials have been battling with the Legislature and governor in an attempt to file bankruptcy so that they can get out from under the crushing debt of a municipal incinerator deal gone bad.
Tova Perlmutter, executive director of Detroit's nonprofit Sugar Law Center — which has gone to court in an attempt to have PA 4 ruled unconstitutional and is helping represent a coalition trying to pass a referendum on the controversial law in November — tells Metro Times that the position taken by some Harrisburg officials is instructive.
An editorial in the Harrisburg Patriot-News summarizes what Perlmutter says is a salient point:
"As the city tries to find a way out of more than $317 million in debt for a city of less than 50,000 residents, the basic game plan has been clear for a while: Sell and lease city assets, renegotiate union contracts and get concessions from creditors. ... [But] it is virtually impossible for Harrisburg to get out from under its debt without the threat of bankruptcy. That does not mean the city will ultimately have to go into Chapter 9, but it will almost certainly need to use the threat of bankruptcy as a negotiating carrot."
By taking bankruptcy completely off the table, Perlmutter says, the city loses the leverage it would have when attempting to negotiate with bondholders and creditors.
But Gov. Snyder isn't the only one determined to keep that arrow out of Detroit's quiver. The Bing administration is also opposed to even considering bankruptcy as a viable option.
"There is no upside for the City of Detroit to declare bankruptcy," Deputy Mayor Kirk Lewis says in reply to an e-mailed question. "It would hobble the region and the state. We believe we can fiscally stabilize the city by re-prioritizing our spending and creating revenue enhancements. Today we're able to provide city services to our citizens, in part, based on our ability to borrow. If we stop paying our lenders, we lose that ability and that just isn't an option."
Meanwhile, other municipalities outside of Michigan do perceive some advantage to bankruptcy.
The Reuters news service reports that there have been nine Chapter 9 municipal bankruptcy filings in the United States so far this year. In California alone, three cities have filed for bankruptcy in recent weeks. Two of them — Stockton and San Bernardino — have a combined population of more than 500,000 residents. The third, Mammoth Lakes, is a small resort town in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Another California town — Vallejo, which is near San Francisco — successfully emerged from three years of bankruptcy protection last summer.
There's good reason for all this action. As noted in the Washington Post:
"Declaring bankruptcy used to be a last resort for cities, not only because it would cripple their ability to borrow for years to come but because of the blow to their reputation. But that attitude has started to change as more cities have found themselves facing fiscal catastrophe; bankruptcy offers an opportunity to start over with a clean slate."
An online legal journal, AmLaw, summed up the results of the deal Vallejo agreed to:
"That plan calls for reduced interest payments to bondholders, scaled-back health benefits for city workers, and retooled collective bargaining agreements with municipal labor unions that will cut pay for Vallejo employees ..."
The bottom line, according to one of the lawyers who represented the city, which racked up a reported $11 million in legal fees, was this: "Everyone's taking a hit, that's the maxim of bankruptcy."
It is a maxim that should be applied to Detroit and the rest of Michigan, say critics of Snyder's stance and PA4.
Under current law, there's no straight path to Chapter 9. A city or school district in financial distress has to be under the authority of an emergency manager, who is the only one who can recommend bankruptcy. If that happens, it is up to the governor to make a final determination.
Which means that, at least the way things stand now, it's not going to happen.

First out is Urban Method. Not a surprise really.
First out is Urban Method. Not a surprise really.
Those who never succeed themselves are always the first to tell you how.
Pentatonix wins! Good for them.
Those who never succeed themselves are always the first to tell you how.
Congrats to Pentatonix! So good to see that all their sacrifices will be rewarded.
Laaaaame but congrats to them.
I'm pleased for Pentatonix - they are the first winners I can really see myself buying singles/albums from.
I had forgotten in these past few years that Nick Lachey is actually a pretty darn good singer. Though his begging a 19 year old girl to give him just one night (una noche) was kind of creepy. And his brother definitely got the dancing genes in the family.
I was always fixated on his wardrobe. He looked good in what he wore, but it was so blah and boring - did he buy that shirt in every colour available? It would have been nice to see him in something like a t-shirt with a blazer over top or something.
I tuned in last night to see what everyone was raving about and was totally First of all, Glee club is not my thing at all. But I thought Pentatonix sounded terribly flat and their voices did not blend at all. Urban Method was slightly better, but not much. Aires were the only ones whose voices blended. Totally unimpressed, but maybe the finale was not the strongest night for these groups.
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
Rob, I didn't think any of the groups were stellar last night. It definitely wasn't a representation of what they have done on past shows. You should check out Youtube for other performances. I thought most of them were fantastic throughout the show.
Happy for Pentatonix! I thought they were consistently great. I loved the Aires as well. It would be a crime if Michael doesn't get a recording contract after this show, he is a total superstar
Really happy for Pentatonix. For such young people, their arranging skill is amazing. I'll buy their stuff.
AceOn6, the golf loving skating fan
So am I the only one watching tonight? Loved Ben and Sara's intro! So funny!
Can't believe that I listened to a Bieber song. Just proves that Pentatonix will get me to listen to just about anything I guess.
Worst of the night for me was The Street Corner Symphony. Hmm, maybe they should reconsider that "no practicing" idea.
Yup, I thought some of the songs were miles better than what was sung at the finale. Loved Shawn and Nota, Sara and Ben, and Pentatonix's holiday song. The all-collegiate one was fun, too.
Great show. I liked pretty much everything, particularly Sara,Ben and the 5 piece band. Street Corner Symphony was definitely "off". I usually like them. Fun to see the Bubs again.
Never mess with a geocacher. We know the best places to hide a body....
It was a great show.
I hope they do something similar again.
Amen to that!It would be a crime if Michael doesn't get a recording contract after this show, he is a total superstar
The collegiate debate one was my favourite, along with the Grinch. And I enjoyed Santa Baby as well.
I had a dream last night that Michael was cast as Judas in the upcoming revival of Jesus Christ Superstar and won a Tony award next year for his role. He's just simply brilliant.
Never mess with a geocacher. We know the best places to hide a body....
I second this!Hooray!

PhD in Social & Political Thought
Timeline for completion of PHD
Degree requirements
*For 2014-2015, SPTH 6104 will be held on Mondays, 2:30 – 5:30 p.m.
in S536 Ross
All PhD students in SPTH then proceed to:
The doctoral student, in consultation with the examining committee, defines two fields on which the student wishes to be examined. One field will be designated the major field, the other the minor field.
Students are not expected to have total mastery of any field but should demonstrate a broad familiarity with the major texts, issues and critics in any given field.
Prior to the comps candidates will present a bibliography of the texts relevant to the chosen fields. The bibliography should include a minimum of (and not much more than) twenty-five (25) significant entries in the major field and a minimum of (and not much more than) fifteen (15) entries for the minor field. The examination will focus attention on the material listed in the bibliography. The bibliography must be approved by the examining committee prior to setting the date for the examination. Candidates are advised to consult with their examining committee when preparing the bibliography.
*Arrangements with respect to time, place, date and composition of the examining committee must be made through the Program office for the Director's approval at least one month prior to the examination*. The comps examination committee consists of three members of the Program who are familiar with a student's work and the Director, or his/her representative. The student will consult with their committee members to determine a suitable date and time for the exam. The student will then provide to the Director (in writing or by email), the names of the three committee members, the proposed time and date of the exam, and the bibliography, and will set up a meeting with the Director to discuss potential Director's Reps. Once the bibliography and committee is approved by the Director, the Program Assistant will contact the faculty members nominated for the Director's Rep. and arrange the comprehensive exam. Official notification of the exam will be sent (by email) to all participants from the Program Office.
For students pursuing the coursework only option:
For students pursing the coursework and MRP option:
For the comprehensive exam, the student should be reviewing the list with the supervisor before the reading begins, and ideally, the whole committee should be participating in the development of the list.
For optional use of the time leading up to the comps exam, the student should set a reading timeline, and meet with committee members to discuss the books. These meetings may be one on one with one of your committee members, or as a group, depending on the individual's booklist and the academic interests of the committee. The student must then email the director (and copy the program assistant),
1) the booklist (Title and author) of the three books
2) the date and time that the comps is tentatively planned for (both the student and the committee members have agreed on the time, and are available for that time and date)and – if a preference has been indicated by the student or committee members –
3) any suggestions for the director's rep.
The student does not select or contact the director's rep. Once the director has approved the books and ranked the list of any director's rep, and program assistant will contact the first name on the list, and see if that faculty member is willing and able to participate in the exam. The reason that four weeks advance notice is needed is that the office needs time to arrange for a director's rep, and the director's rep may need time to review the books that are to be examined. The advanced notice cannot be changed or waived, and the time starts from when the request is made to do the comps exam.
See our Frequently Asked Question for more information
Students should be reminded that a dissertation proposal is just that - a proposal. The finished product, a definitive argument, with well-rounded conclusions, etc. are not expected in a proposal (they are absolutely necessary in the dissertation!). What the proposal should indicate in a general and concise manner are the claims/themes/controversies/hypotheses/ arguments/ directions, etc. that the student plans to take up in the course of his/her research and writing.
The proposal cannot be reviewed without all supervisory committee approvals and all relevant related paperwork. ALL signatures or email confirmations from the committee must be submitted on the deadline, in the proposal, or the proposal will be shelved until the next deadline. The student needs to have them collected and included when the proposal comes into the office. Presuming the faculty member will submit the form on time and calling or emailing to check if the file is complete is not the program office's responsibility, it is the student's role.
The dissertation proposal must be submitted and approved by both the program and FGS at least six months prior to the PhD oral defence.
Deadlines for Dissertation proposals:
Fall Term: October 1st each year
Winter Term: January 25th each year
Summer Term: April 30th
If the deadline falls on a weekend, then the deadline automatically becomes the first business day after the deadline.
The proposals will then all by photocopied for the Advisory committee, sent to all committee mebers and a meeting will be set up approximately 1 month after each deadline. Committee members will be polled on availability for meeting times, and a time and date will be set and all committee members will be notified. At the same time students who have submitted their proposals will be notified of the time, date and location of the meeting, and encouraged to invite their supervisor to attend the meeting. (If the supervisor is not available, the student may ask another member of their supervisory committee to attend if they wish).
Review of the Dissertation Proposal
The dissertation proposal will be reviewed by the Advisory Committee with particular attention to the following matters:
1. Significance and timeliness as a theoretical work;
The Advisory Committee is comprised of 3 faculty members, the Director (generally as either as chair or as a regular member, or the dierctor may appoint one of the faculty committee members to be the chair), 2 voting student members, and up to 2 non-voting student alternates. The Director will inform the candidate and supervisor of any comments, suggestions or concerns in a timely manner after the meeting.
The student will meet with the committee to discuss their proposals. The supervisor may attend and participate in the discussion as well. Notes will be taken for the student, and the Chair of the committee will send them to the student and copy the supervisor, generally by email within a reasonable time after the meeting. Please note: While it is preferrable for the student to attend the meeting, if the student is unavailable at the date and time of the advisory meeting, the committee can proceed with the meeting, notes will be taken and the director will provide the information to the student and can discuss any comments on behalf of the committee with the student (and/or supervisor).
If the Advisory Committee assesses the proposal and requests revisions or clarifications, the student and supervisor will receive written comments and will be requested to resubmit the proposal once revisions have been made. In the case of serious doubt or disagreement, the Advisory committee shall make a report to the Executive Committee for any resolution. Only upon resolution by the Advisory Committee and/or the Executive Committee will the proposal be submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies for approval. If needed, a meeting to consider (or review again) the proposal can be requested at any time by the Candidate, the supervisor, the Director, or the Advisory Committee. If a meeting is to be held, it is highly recommended that the Candidate and the candidate's supervisor attend the session at which the Advisory Committee formally considers the dissertation proposal.
Most students have indicated that the Advisory committee is actually a very beneficial chance to talk to academics beyond the specialized scope of their supervisory committee about their research, and to see what kinds of questions their research generates.
Most common issues with Dissertation proposals:
* Too long
* Ethcis paperwork not clear, (ie. questionnaire sample vague and undeveloped).
* Editting.
* Bibliography lacking key texts
* Note: Students are strongly recommended to keep a complete copy of their dissertation proposal in their own personal records because it is their responsibiltiy to have this information. This is particularly important if the student withdraws and plans to return to defend because they may need to proposal if the program's copy - in compliance with the FIPA regulations - has been destroyed after the student has been withdrawn for two years.
Dissertations should adhere to the format set forth in the "Guidelines for the Preparation and Examination of Theses and Dissertations" published by the Faculty of Graduate Studies. Thesis Guidelines of the Faculty of Graduate Studies Copies are available in the SPTH office or in the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
In conjunction with the supervisor and supervisory committee, the PhD Candidate develops an intended timetable for completion of all stages of the dissertation, and works to realize that timetable, meeting appropriate deadlines. The Candidate should meet regularly with the supervisor to review progress, normally at least once a month, and not less than once each term. Interaction with other members of the supervisory committee should take place as appropriate.
Students wishing to view dissertations by SPTH alumni may have access to the bound dissertations through the Program Director, although dissertations may not be borrowed or used outside of the SPTH offices. In addition, the Scott Library maintains dissertations of all York graduate students.
Students who are working on their Dissertation may request Extended Library Loan Privileges. The form is available in the SPTH program office.

The exercise is part of the State Partnership Program, or SPP, which dates back to the breakup of the Warsaw Pact in the early 1990s. Harris says the program establishes bilateral relationship between foreign countries and U.S. states through the state's National Guard. Tennessee first worked with Bulgaria in 1993. The new focus of the SPP is to ready partner nations for deployment to the International Security Assistance Force ------ Information from: The Paris Post-Intelligencer, http://www.parispi.net/

Town manager William Ross said on Wednesday that the lights put out nearly four years ago in Mansfield have been turned back on.
The lights were originally turned off as a cost-saving measure during a tight budget season in 2009.
"All the lights that went out were turned on," he said.
The lights were a subject of heated debate during the 2012 spring town meeting, as costs were tight, but resident demand for the lights to be turned back on was fervent.
Ross said that some lights in the Cabot Business Park were not turned on because, he and light department administrators agreed, were redundant and unnecessary.
Ross added that lights on Route 106 going towards Easton were not turned on either because of roadwork currently underway by the state.
Ross said that Mansfield Municipal Electric Department employees are looking for burnouts as well throughout the coming months and will be replacing them.
"If there are lights that are not burning please call and we will get them going," he said.

UT football: When there's a problem, stick with the problem
Rocky Top Talk: Yes, Jonathan Crompton will start at QB for Tennessee's game against Vanderbilt at 12:30 on Saturday. He's excited. For Vol fans, "wary" would be putting it nicely.
And there's this from a player: I really don't have too many things to say to Mike Hamilton right now. He took a lot of stuff away from me, something very valuable, and that's my head coach. Coach Fulmer's one of the main reasons why I came here, and he took it away. So for him doing that, I could care less.
Plus, more rumors on the new-coach trail.

Every Thursday week the Westchester Humane Society selects a pet that they think would be a perfect fit for an animal lover hoping for some company.
This week's pet in the spotlight is Garfield, a male, orange cat.
Garfield has the typical "nice guy" orange cat personality; he doesn't have a mean bone in his body. He's a very handsome redhead, and smart too—so no redhead jokes please! Garfield demonstrates a great temperament, is friendly, gentle and sweet, and considers all other cats to be his buddies.
He is overflowing with love and enjoys discovering new sights and sounds. He loves toys too, although he is a little short on them these days. Garfield is quite the chatterbox and will look you in the eyes while he lures you over.
Come and have a conversation with him! Garfield was shy at one time, but just loved people too much to stay that way. He desperately wants your attention, and will lovingly talk to you until he gets you to pet him. His endearing and docile ways can not be beat. This young adult is a staff favorite!
We've loved seeing Garfield blossom into a happy little soul. He now romps and plays with the best of them. Watch out catnip mice and jingle balls!
Garfield has been neutered, has received his yearly vaccinations and dewormer, and tested negatively for FIV/feline leukemia. He's good to go! The adoption fee is $80.00.
Please come meet Garfield at the Westchester Humane Society, located at 7 Harrison Ave, Harrison NY 10528. The phone number is 914-835-3332.

There's not much to say here. Hop on over to the VirtualBox site, download the installer and run it. During the install you'll not only get the UAC popup asking for administrator rights, but also several popups asking to install device drivers. This is normal, as it must install virtual networking interfaces and such.
Create the Virtual Machine
When VirtualBox is finished installing, you should see a window that looks like the screenshot above. Click on the New button, give the VM a name and select Linux and the type of Linux distro you have. Be sure to give it a fair amount of memory, but not so much that your host OS runs out of memory. I usually stick to 2 gigabytes, it's enough for most tasks and on my desktop computer it leaves lots of room for Windows and other Windows programs.
The rest of the options just leave as default. I like to give it a bit bigger hard drive (20 gigs), but that's up to you. The default 8 gigs is probably OK, depending on what you're using Linux for.

It is an annual tradition to celebrate the nation's catholic schools. According to the National Catholic Education Association (NCEA), there were 5,636 elementary catholic schools alone in 2012. It is much to celebrate.
Good Shepherd Catholic Regional School was one of the many to celebrate the week. Scheduled by the NCEA for the final Sunday in January through the following seven days, the school honored the tradition by giving back to its community.
According to an article in the Ambler Gazette, the students at Good Shepherd started by giving to Aid for Friends (AFF). The organizaiton, which is based in Northeast Philadelphia, serves area seniors by providing meals, aid and services to those elderly in need.
"If anyone has enough of this world's goods and sees one of his brothers or sisters in need yet fails to help him, how can the love of God be living in him? My children, our love is not to be just words or mere talk but something real and active." -John 3: 17-18
It is a bible verse enscribed on the AFF website, and is rather a "motto" the non-profit operates by each year. It has operated since 1974.
In 2011, the organization served 2,228 clients, making it "largest and most comprehensive meal delivery program in the five county Greater Philadelphia region," according to the AFF site.
With the inspiration provided by their annual CSW, the students at Good Shepherd collected various requested foods. Each grade, kindergarten through eighth, brought in their designated food and on Jan. 29, the school took time out to bag them up.
According to the Gazette's article, the bags were coupled with a card from the students. They were later delivered by AFF to seniors in need. Extra foods were donated to line the AFF's food pantry shelves, said the Gazette.
"That is our job to protect the people in need," said Grace Bastian, a seventh-grade teacher at Good Shepherd who organized the collection, to the Ambler Gazette. She said the service was "reminder of who they are and what their mission is as Christians."
Good Shepherd is in its third year of operation. The school was created by merging St. John of the Cross and Queen of Peace catholic schools.

I'm grading this based on what it is, not on how it compares to other beers.
As an American Adjunct Lager that makes no bones about what it is (even the name of "Simpler Times" in basic lettering) and the "Simpler Times" pricing of $3.99 a six pack, this is pretty damn good.
It tastes like a BMC, sweet corn, clear yellow, white head that quickly dissipates... all in all though, this is exactily what BMC should be: Simple and cheap. I can't imagine how anyone would buy this beer expecting the slightest bit of complexity... I don't know how a brewery can make it more clear that this is just cheap beer.
Will buy again, probably a case, for the next time I BBQ,

Better than PBR for the value; quite impressed for the price. Quite a basic pilsner taste, but there is a definite pilsner-like taste there, more so than say PBR. Typical grassy, light taste, yet pretty drinkable.
Overall: There is taste there, doesn't feel watered down, and is of extremely good value. Great budget buy.

12 oz can into a pint glass. Picking up from earlier proceedings...
A: Pours an ever-so-slightly murky golden color. The head is about two fingers high with a white shade and excellent creaminess. Retention is alright, shockingly. A nice ring of soft lacing is left on the glass. This has a genuinely attractive look.
S: Whoa, heavy on the diacetyl. It's kind of cotton candy-like, too. There are faint traces of hops, but they're really damn mild. Really uninspired for a pilsner, but hey, at least the adjunct qualities don't come off offensively! That's good, right?
T: There is, like, an assload of butterscotch flavor to start. Unlike the Simpler Times lager, it seems like someone bothered to throw a few hops in it, but not enough. Not much of a pilsner at all - it's just too damn sweet.
M: The first thing I notice: there's actually a twinge of dryness to counter all of the beer's sweetness. Second thing I notice: this is REALLY well carbonated, almost to the point of being harsh. It's easy to drink, like all cheap lagers should aspire to be.
O: I can't hate on it for $4 a six pack. Just like its identical cousin, it's a great choice for cheap drunkery. It's just a bit crisper/drier than its aforementioned cousin, and would make a decent hot weather beer. Personally though, I'd rather drink something else.

Found at Trader Joe's, which opened their first VT location several hours ago.
Pours a mild gold with a huge white head into my glass. It was cheap at $3.99 a six pack and two other varieties are available.
Light and easy on the nose. Bready texture.
A faint dose of hops greet the taste buds along with buttered bread. I'm not sure if it's all-grain or adjunct but it tastes very restrained.
Finishes clean too with only a touch of sweetness. Very clean.
This would make an awesome lawnmower beer. It's very easy to drink and the price is attractive. It gives me hope for the other varieties that are available.

I tried this out because I like Trader Joe's other products and I think they only carry quality stuff, but their beer only can be described as "passable." It has an average taste but nothing distinctive about it. Its also not as clean and crisp as a pilsner should be.

Number 4 in my mystery sixer thanks to Trader Joe's. I was disappointed to see this being a can but that is okay!
A-The can is simple and looks classy (for beer).
S-Has a PBR like taste in my opinion.
T-Reminds me of PBR to some extent but I am not overly excited about this beer.
M-Same as taste. . just okay.
O-I was surprised that in the end this beer was too weak for my blood.

It's Thursday and you know what that means – there are less than 48 hours left to vote in the 2014 Spring Student Elections! Anxiously awaiting to see which of these flops is going to lead us into the harrowing challenges of the 2014-2015 academic year has all of us biting our nails and upping our Xanax prescriptions. But never fret, as your premier source of Polls You Can Believe in (trademark pending), UTB took the liberty of conducting some exit polls at today's voting booth on Locust.
When asked what factor most influenced their vote, 38% of respondents said the catchiness of the candidate's campaign slogan, 32% said the attractiveness of the candidate's posters, 11% said the attractiveness of the candidate, 10% said, "Am I voting? Someone just shoved this computer in my face" and 9% said they just clicked on whichever name jumped out at them first. When asked if the candidates' platforms had any effect on their vote whatsoever, 88% of respondents said, quote, "No." Read on for more STATZ!

Biba's - Is it still fantastic?
Although I like Bibas the "hottest" restaurant in Sacramento for true foodies in the area is The Waterboy. That is where all the chefs in Sacramento eat according to the Sacramento Bee.
re: dgb
I have been extremely disappointed by Waterboy lately. Great service, but the food - meh. Two friends of mine had a really bad meal there after coming up from Oakland, too, and they really know food ... I think the hot restaurants in Sacramento these days are The Kitchen and Supper Club. They're not cheap - both are more expensive than a meal at Biba - but both sound incredible.
I had a good meal at Biba two months ago - I think it's still quite good. Good bar, great service, some of the best gnocchi and pasta in general anywhere in the country.
Biba is probably still the king (or queen) in Sacramento. However, the Waterboy, in my opinion is the best in the area. Biba's is a bit stuffy and is often frequented by special occasion diners who only go because of the occasion. It tends to add an air of formality that I don't care for. The food however remains excellent. Biba has remained steadfastly Northern Italian and the food is first rate. Waterboy is much more casual and the service is first rate. The food is fantastic,especially the sweetbreads and the fresh fish of the day. Overall, I think they are the two best restaurants in Sac.
I had lunch at Biba's last week - still fabulous as ever.
Another place you may want to consider that is on my "to do" list is Mulvaney's Building and Loan...lots of buzz (like the Waterboy) but without the foody self indulgence you see in entirely too many places (including the Waterboy from time-to-time).
re: popgunandy
Mulvaney's = mediocre. Does not live up to the hype, I don't think. I had one meal there, and two friends - who had really been looking forward to it, as the Mulvaney's folks had catered a special event for them and done a really great job - had an even less stellar experience. The room is pleasant and the staff wonderful, but the food was nothing special - certainly not worth the price.
I had dinner at Biba's not long ago. If you love red bell peppers, have the braised rabbit dish. The gnocci was to die for. The sweetbreads were not as good as The Waterboy's.
I love The Waterboy for the sweetbreads, the cesar salad with the best anchovies ever, and the risotto. I've only eaten lunch there.
I'll tell ya though, if you want some good eats and don't care about the atmosphere...go to Vientiane in West Sac and have the stuffed chicken wings, the lemon grass chicken, the green papaya salad, and that wonderful soup. It was really some of the best food I've ever tasted. I crave those stuffed chicken wings every day. Perfect. A group of 8 of us met there and we had a feast..for 13.25 each.
Dined here last night. Service was incredible, almost like magic.
Had the bruschetta appetizer along with the carpazio. the Brushetta was incredible. Not a big fan of raw meats so the other left me a little flat.
My salad was fantastic, a pepper salad with olives of all kinds.
The others ordered a green salad with pears. Should have been more pears, I think. the flavor really came out with the pears, and there weren't enough to last the lettuce.
As for the entrees...a mixed bag. One ordered lamb chops. they were battered and were not a favorite.
Another orderd the seetbreads (on appetizer menu) orderd as a dinner. Pretty good but they said they were ot as good as the Waterboy......Not crispy enough and too saucy.
my dinner was great, I orderd the mixed grill, pork loin, chicken and a sausage with cabbage. The pork loin was to die for. The chicken also was great as was the sausage. The cabbage (the server said when I ordered it was more like Saurkraut)was really the best cabbage thing I have ever eaten. A little like Saurkraut, but not really. But thanks to the server's warning I opted to have mashed potatoes in case I did not like the cabbage. The mashed potatoes were the best I have ever eaten I think.
All in all one fo the best dining experiences I have had in LOOOOOOOOOONG time. As for my partners they are not big on sauces so their opinion is somewhat skewed, but they loved it.

Pavel Podvig: Offense and defense after new STARTin the news: The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists on January 6, 2010
"New START is the last 'traditional' arms control agreement in that it exclusively deals with the two largest nuclear weapons states and their strategic nuclear weapons," writes CISAC affiliate and former research associate Pavel Podvig in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. "Further steps toward nuclear disarmament will require dealing with a range of different issues, and difficult issues in their own right -- from tactical nuclear weapons and conventional strategic launchers to nuclear warheads in storage and the arsenals in other nuclear weapon states. Success in dealing with these matters will depend on whether the United States and Russia find a way around a problem that will quite likely dominate the debate: missile defense."

I have an Audi A3 1.6 that's had a misfire problem for some time now. Going back a few months, when I first connected VAGCOM/VCDS to the car this is the (massive) list of faults that had accumulated on the car since the previous owner had never had the car scanned:
Since then, I have spent months messing about trying to get everything right. I changed the spark plugs, coil packs and both lambda sensors (one on the engine and one on the exhaust). I've cleaned and reconnected the MAF sensor and I've even gone to the extent of changing the head gasket. Having done all of this I've managed to clear every single fault on the above list but I still have this incredibly annoying misfire upon idle, which is the reason I've been scanning and changing parts on the car in the first place.
I've re-scanned the car numerous times with VCDS having put hundreds of miles on the car between each scan and it no longer ever finds any faults. The misfire keeps the car jumping between as low as 600 revs up to just under 1000 revs at idle. What seems strange to me is that this makes it much harder to pull away without stalling than it should, but once the car is actually rolling it appears to run perfectly. It's not as if it's only firing on three cylinders etc. As soon as I get to a stop the misfiring will start again.
Does anyone have any recommendations as to what I should try changing next? I'm really running out of ideas here...

If you don't find the answer to your question below you can always contact us – we're happy to help! The naturopathy section on altMD is also a good source of information about the profession.

What can I expect / how does it work?
Naturopathic Medicine is a sensible and comprehensive approach to health care. I was drawn to it because it combines the best of modern medical knowledge with the whole-person approach common to older healing traditions. A Naturopathic Doctor's (ND's) goal is to find and treat the underlying cause(s) of your health concerns, rather than treating symptoms alone. My job is not only to help you feel better - but to do so in a way that's in agreement with how you're made.
ND's follow some key principles in their approach to helping you improve your health:
As outlined below, Naturopathic Doctors (ND's) are trained to diagnose and treat the full range of chronic and acute health conditions.
Naturopathic doctors take at least seven years of post-secondary education: three years pre-medical university studies, followed by four years at a recognized college of naturopathic medicine. This post-graduate work includes the following medical science courses:
In addition, ND's take multiple courses in six principle treatment modalities:
Training includes 1,500 hours of supervised clinical experience and 3,000 hours of academic education.
Graduates receive the title "N.D." or Doctor of Naturopathic, and must pass rigorous international licensing examinations to be eligible to practice as a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine. To find out if your naturopath is properly licensed in Ontario, visit The Board of Directors of Drugless Therapy. Continuing education credits are required throughout an ND's career to maintain professional standing.
Naturopaths use a broad range of therapies, including botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, homeopathy, traditional oriental medicine/acupuncture, naturopathic physical medicine, and lifestyle counseling. You can learn more about the services offered at Belmont Natural Health Centre here.
By providing a unique and comprehensive perspective on your health, naturopathic medicine offers effective treatments for a full range of health concerns including:
Acute Conditions
Female Health Issues
Chronic Illnesses
It is also common for someone to seek help for a concern without a specific diagnosis – "I don't feel well, but my doctor says all the tests are normal…". These are often my favourite cases!
There is an enormous body of evidence supporting naturopathic medicine, and it's quickly becoming a common, mainstream health care choice. You'll be surprised to discover just how practical and scientific our work at the clinic is. We rely a great deal on lab testing and logical clinical assessment. The main differences are our desire to get to the root of what's causing your health concerns, and to do so from a whole-person perspective – please see What is Naturopathic Medicine? above.
The safety record for naturopathic medicine is excellent. This makes sense given the emphasis on natural, non-toxic medicines and gentle, non-invasive treatments. Naturopathic doctors are knowledgeable about interactions between naturopathic treatments and conventional medicines. We are also trained to recognize conditions which are outside our scope of practice, and to refer to other health practitioners when appropriate.
There are two significant differences. First of all homeopaths are trained specifically to use homeopathy as a treatment tool, whereas naturopathic doctors use homeopathy as one of several treatment tools.
The second major difference is that homeopaths are not regulated or licensed in the province of Ontario, therefore anyone can call themselves a homeopath regardless of training. Naturopathic doctors must complete and maintain their training and license as outlined above in How are Naturopathic Doctors Trained?
Unlike an ND, a Doctor of Natural Medicine (DNM) is not regulated and licensed in Ontario.
Anyone, regardless of training and education, can call themselves a Doctor of Natural Medicine in this province. There is no independent regulatory body that ensures that these individuals have appropriate training, or that standards of practice are being maintained. If a client has any concerns their only recourse is a court of law. Most health insurance companies only cover practitioners that are licensed.
The regulatory board for Naturopathic Doctors in Ontario is the Board of Directors of Drugless Therapy – Naturopathy (BDDT-N). This board is a government-appointed board that is independent of any of the naturopathic associations and its job is to protect the rights of the public and to ensure a standard of patient care.
The Board of Directors or Drugless Therapy maintains an up-to-date list of registered naturopaths in the province of Ontario at: http://www.boardofnaturopathicmedicine.on.ca/doctors_list.html
Absolutely! Naturopaths are well trained in understanding interactions between natural treatments and conventional prescriptions. It is often a patient's goal to reduce the need for prescription medications or avoid invasive procedures, and we can achieve this through cooperation with your other healthcare providers.
Even in cases that clearly call for conventional medical intervention, such as surgery, your naturopath can help before and after your procedure to help accelerate your recovery. Also see What types of health concerns can be treated?.
Many factors contribute to the program of care including the type of condition treated, response to treatment, client compliance, and the types of treatment used such as acupuncture or NAET. Generally, treatment begins with two to three separate visits.
The goals of the initial appointment are to gather a complete medical history, perform appropriate physical exam, treat acute conditions, and set the foundation for the treatment of chronic conditions. You are asked to bring a completed intake form and any recent lab results you may have. Further lab tests may be requested, acute treatment is provided, and where appropriate basic treatment for chronic conditions is started.
The goals of the first follow-up visit are client education and the initiation of a comprehensive treatment plan. A treatment plan may include one or more of the following: nutritional supplements, botanical and homeopathic medicines, dietary and lifestyle counseling, acupuncture, or NAET.
The goals of the second follow-up visit are to determine client response to treatment, modify the treatment plan if appropriate, and provide supportive treatments where necessary.
A complete treatment plan may requires further visits over the long term, depending on a number of factors as outlined above. Once a client has experienced a positive response to care ongoing treatment for secondary health concerns, acute conditions, and preventative care is often sought.
In our office you can expect a high degree of personal attention, strict confidentiality, and a wide range of health care services designed to help you find your best level of health.

"Sandy will always be in our hearts forever."
During the first few years of owning the car, it was fine. Then once it turned 10 years old, major things happened to the car.
General Comments:
My wife and I bought the car brand new in 1983. It was like a sand beige color with burgundy interior. It had all of the power buttons in it. It did have the deluxe wheel covers as well on it.
At first, we began to really like the car. All 3 of our kids, who are now grown up and have kids of their own, liked the car as well. The car was very roomy, very comfortable, and lots of power while on the road.
The reason for getting rid of the car? Well, with all of the problems that we had with it once it turned 10 years old, we felt it was time to get rid of it. We made the foolish mistake of trading it in at the time for a brand new 1994 Ford Taurus. Now that was a big mistake!
There are times when my wife and I wish we could have just had it fully repaired so that we could still enjoy driving it. However, we do indeed miss the car that we called "Sandy".
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
Review Date: 7th September, 2006

Buick Centurys were not available with a 3.8 liter V6 in 1983. Your car either had the 2.8 Liter or 3.0 Liter V6, or else it is a newer model.

6 slices buttered white bread, cubed
2 C shredded Sharp Cheddar cheese
3 eggs
1 ½ C Milk
Salt and pepper to taste
Dash paprika
Layer buttered bread with cheese in a 3" deep round baking dish so that you have 2 layers of each starting with bread and ending with cheese. In a separate bowl, mix eggs, milk and spices. Pour over the bread and cheese and squish it all down with your hands. Cover and refrigerate overnight. The next morning, uncover and bake at 350 for 1 hour.
This recipe is easily increased using 1 egg and ½ C milk for every 2 slices of bread.

Dyn creates California-style office environment
Dyn Software Engineer Joe Stelmach works at his new cubicle, with hanging gardens in the background. (DAVE SOLOMON/UNION LEADER)
You and your manager at one of the state's fastest growing tech firms could talk it over across a desk in the traditionally stilted office environment, or you could bounce ideas off each other while playing Ping-Pong in the game room, knocking in a few golf balls at the indoor putting green, sipping cappuccino in the Dyn Cafe Annex or spotting each other for a few bench presses in the gym.
There are plenty of new work stations for Dyn's growing number of employees, not to mention hanging gardens, original murals and a small movie theater.
Prior to the expansion, Dyn had about 200 employees crowded into a space built for 160 to 170. That second-floor space had already been featured in local media and the trade press for amenities such as arcade games, a rock climbing wall, a deck overlooking the Merrimack River and a private restaurant.
A conference center with space for 300 and a theater with seating for 50 are designed for internal training, product launches, community events and the occasional movie night.
"We see not only the Dyn culture, but our space as a recruiting tool," said Paul Mailhot, vice president of business operations and clerk of the works for the expansion, which exceeded the company's $1 million estimate, although he declined to say by how much.
"We're certainly not done yet," Mailhot said. "We're eyeing another 40,000 to 50,000 square feet in the same building. Our intent is to stay here. We enjoy this building and the relationship we have with the landlord and other tenants."

I could not stop walking--I had booked so many appointments during my short stay that they were stacked one on top of the other. After I left the farmer's market, I headed to the Upper West Side for yet another meeting.
I was early--one always is, if one takes the subway--so I (naturally) found a few more snacks. I was beginning to feel like Winnie the Pooh, sticking a paw into every tree I could to see if I could find some more honey, knowing that I would soon be worrying about stoutness exercises. I note that while I may admire vegetables, I actually devour desserts.
Read all of Dominique Browning's post, a diary of a day in New York written for those of us who won't make it there for awhile.
Thanks to Dominique!

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rick Santorum says he expects to do well in the next GOP presidential contests and will be in a two-man race with Mitt Romney.
Santorum is coming off victories last week in Colorado, Minnesota and Missouri, and says he can have good showings Feb. 28 in Michigan and Arizona.
The former Pennsylvania senator says he's the latest candidate to challenge front-running Romney and he says Romney is having trouble figuring how to go after a rival who is a "solid conservative" with the ability to win support from independents and Democrats.
Santorum tells ABC's "This Week" that Romney has won in some states by "beating the tar" out of his opponents on massive television ad spending. Santorum says Romney won't have such a fundraising edge over President Barack Obama.
