MTV To Hold Fundraiser for Seaside Heights
'Restore the Shore' to air at 11 p.m.
Dozens of stars, artists and organizations will participate tonight in a one-hour MTV-driven fundraising special to help rebuild Seaside Heights, according to an MTV spokesperson.
The event is scheduled to air live at 11 p.m. on MTV, MTV.com, MTV mobile and MTV radio.
The effort is part of MTV's campaign 'Restore the Shore.'
From 4 pm until midnight, the cast of MTV's "Jersey Shore" – as well as stars from other top MTV shows including "Awkward," "Teen Wolf," "Teen Mom," "The Challenge," and "The Real World" – will be live in MTV's Times Square studio, calling donors to thank them for giving.
Unlike a conventional telethon where viewers call in and hope to speak with a celebrity, MTV's "Restore the Shore" will feature stars personally calling individuals who donate via Indiegogo at RestoretheShore.MTV.com or make a $10 donation by texting SHORE to 85944.
All funds raised will go to Architecture for Humanity, an international non-profit that led rebuilding efforts in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake, according to a MTV spokesperson.
"They are now setting out to help rebuild the famed boardwalk, local businesses and homes in Seaside Heights ravaged by the storm," a MTV spokesperson said.
"Restore the Shore" will feature live performances from Gym Class Heroes (with special guest Oh Land) performing the comeback anthem "The Fighter," as well as "American Idol" Season 11 winner Phillip Phillips performing his hit "Home."
Everyone who donates $25 or more will receive an exclusive MTV "Restore the Shore" song bundle, which includes 30 songs from the past six seasons of "Jersey Shore."
Online crowdfunding platform Indiegogo.com has created a special campaign donation page RestoretheShore.Indiegogo.com for MTV's "Restore the Shore," and in conjunction with PayPal.com, will be waiving 100% of the fees on all donations.
The MTV Shop, as well as select Modell's locations in NY, NJ, PA and DE and modells.com, will be selling the official MTV "Restore the Shore" t-shirt for $20, with all net proceeds going to Architecture for Humanity's Seaside rebuilding fund.
In addition, Viacom, MTV's parent company, will donate $100,000 to Architecture for Humanity in support of the "Restore the Shore" fund, as part of its $1 million Viacommunity pledge to Hurricane Sandy relief efforts.
"Seaside Heights needs our support," said Cameron Sinclair, executive director of Architecture for Humanity. "Without the economic lifeline of the boardwalk, local families will be without work and forced to decide whether they should return. By building back better we can create a more resilient community for generations to come."

Just because these people were on a show that filmed in seaside does not mean they HAVE to fundraise for the rebuilding effort. Did every celebrity who has ever shot a movie or show in New Orleans help those people after Katrina...I doubt it. I think its great that they're doing this. I'm not a fan of any of them, but really it is good that they are pitching in.
3:01 pm on Thursday, November 15, 2012
Agree with Jan, not a fan , but Kudo's to the cast for helping all who are suffering, I hope it goes to those who really need it !!!! You know how some fund raisers go..10 cents on the dollar get to those who need it,90 cents goes to staff & costs to promote said; fund raiser ect....

5:39 pm on Friday, November 16, 2012
The only area not accessible by residents as of today, are parts of Ortley Beach and Mantaloking. Some parts of Ortley will finally be allowed to view their homes and get personal belongings for the first time tomorrow. Sad. Seaside park has begun demo, etc. Seaside Hts also. I am pretty sure he same applies to Pelican Is.

What does this mean? Fundraiser for Seaside? Who is getting the money? Where is all the money going? Who is it actually helping? All these fundraiser's....who is it actually helping? I don't know, but after Katrina..so many concerts, fundraisers and it really did not go to the people who actually needed the money.

Clan Operations Preview
Like (12)
Please note: The below screenshots are taken from in-progress tests that we're running on actual Ops in the Test instances of ELITE.
As we continue testing for Clan Operations, we'd like to share a preview of the Clan Operations experience so you can hit the ground running with your clan when the feature launches. We're currently putting all Clan Operations through extensive testing and while we can't give you a date on when it will be ready, it is getting closer every day.
Enlisting in a Clan Operation
To Enlist in a Clan Operation, Clan Leaders will visit the Compete section and select a Clan Operation from the new Clan Operations section.
Clan Operation Details Page
On the Clan Operation details page, members can view:
Clan Leaders will be able to enlist their Clan in the Clan Operation by selecting the enlistment status which will change to "Enlisted." After a Clan Leader has enlisted in a Clan Operation, the enlistment status will be reflected for all Clan members.
Further down on the Clan Operation details page, members can also see the prizes, badges, scoring and winning criteria prior to the beginning of a Clan Operation.
Following the completion of a Clan Operation and winner verification, the Champion Clan will be displayed on the Winners' Podium.
Below the Winners' Podium, you can see how your Clan performed in the Your Clan's Performance section.
Underneath Your Clan's Performance, you can view the overall Clan Operation Leaderboard.
Clan Showcase
If your Clan performed well enough in a Clan Operation to earn a badge, your prizing will be displayed in your Clan Showcase on your ELITE Clan page below your Clan Feed.
We look forward to launching this feature and hearing your feedback. Until launch, please feel free to ask any questions you have about the Clan Operations feature in this thread so we can better equip you and your clan.
@ Beachhead, what exactly is closer every day? Most of my "CLAN" has moved on to other games because they see no reason to play MW3 any longer. A bunch of em are 8th and 9th prestige. What is the purpose of playing as a clan if we hit 10 before this gets going? What may be close to you, isn't close to us. By the way, if your definition of "soon" is anything like Robert Bowlings when he said on Jan 25th that the DLC for Elite members of the PS3 was coming soon (Which was 5 weeks later), I'll be expecting Clan Ops about the time Black Ops 3 DLC comes out next year. Your company has lost all respect of the COD community. If you don't believe what I said here, go join any lobby on Xbox or the PS3 and ask about Clan Ops and Beachhead. It should be interesting to see what you hear from your customers.....just sayin.
@ondsnap DLC comes first to XBOX 360 until the end of 2012.. its a contract between activision and microsoft.. if sony wants DLC first then they should show some love.. its a know contract for a few years now.. nothing new..
@Beachead please take seriously into consideration of the following
My clan called TORC of MW3 is a HARDCORE DOMINATION CLAN.. I certainly hope that clan ops can provide us with game modes and challenges that we as a clan enjoy playing.. we can not stand and refuse to play team deathmatch and other game modes that are not in hardcore..
Also, please comment and post to the following question
1. Hardcore mode players get no love. why is it that elite is also biased on the game modes that players play.. In my opinion if you are running a CORE domination wicked dominator competition, the hardcore mode players should also get to compete in the same event in Hardcore mode.. its in the game, and that what we like to play..
it seems and correct me if im wrong here. it seems as if Premium members, founders etc are forced to play in modes they dont like and or are not good at.. that is not equal to all gamers.
also, ELITE Playlists.. There is only 3 game modes in Elite playlists in Hardcore mode. this maybe an issue for the developers, however ill ask anyway, Hardcore mode players want hardcore mode games. and we want to be able to play the matches and new DLC maps in the modes we like.. it seems that hardcore mode players are just a blip on a map, not cared about and represent just a number..
im gonna be brutaly honest here. So far, i love ELITE, and all the features it promises.. however, it is very unlikely i will purchase elite again in the future just because its not living up to what i was sold on.
- i am premium/founder yet i play hardcore domination. i get DLC each month, but i cant play it in game modes that i play.. so why should i purchase elite again.
2 main reasons i purchased elite was for CLAN OPS, and for DLC free each month. now then, so far clan ops is just coming soon, and now the dlc maps are put in a private playlist which is great, but its limited to hardcore mode players. we are forced to play game modes we cant stand in order to play on the new maps..
im sorry this is so long here, but im not happy, and i think i deserver some answers. i respect the effort you guys at beachead are putting into the game and product, but you must see the reasons why many of us are so unhappy..
thank you for your time,
Why wasn't any of this completed before the launch???
Many of us have been members since day one. Since November 8th of 2011 and Clan Ops is still non fuctional. Are we going to recieve an extention to our accounts?
This is not worth $50.
well if clan events are as good as lone wolf events well imight just put my mw3 in the microwave
i should sue devolpers for false advertisment promising me clan events when theres obviously not >:(
so basicly clan ops are the exact same thing as lone wolf ops ??
its a good idea but i think MOST of the community would like to see us bieing able to go Clan vs Clan
I'm so excited and quit talking about suing cause you won't.
finally next time have everything ready before selling

Wal-Mart's third quarter profit up 9 percent
NEW YORK (AP) — Wal-Mart Stores Inc. reported a 9 percent increase in third-quarter net income as the world's largest retailer continues to woo back shoppers by reemphasizing it has the lowest prices. But the company is seeing its momentum slow as it grapples with an uncertain global economy.
The Bentonville, Ark.-based discounter issued a fourth-quarter profit outlook that was below analysts' forecast. It also reported that revenue at stores open at least a year, a figure that measures growth in established stores, fell short of Wall Street estimates.
Wal-Mart is considered an economic bellwether because the retailer accounts for nearly 10 percent of nonautomotive retail spending in the U.S. The company's latest results underscore how its low- income shoppers continue to have a hard time stretching their dollars to the next pay day and count on rock-bottom prices.
"Current macroeconomic conditions continue to pressure our customers," said Charles Holley, Wal-Mart's chief financial officer in a statement. "The holiday season is predicted to be very competitive but we are well prepared to deliver on the value and low prices our customers expect."
Nevertheless, Wal-Mart has been able to turn around its U.S. business by fixing its mistakes it made in merchandising and pricing. It's hammering its low price message again after temporarily discounting select items. It's also returned thousands of items to its shelves after a campaign to reduce clutter in its stores backfired.
The company says Thursday it earned $3.63 billion, or $1.08 per share, in the quarter ended Oct. 31. That compares with $3.33 billion, or 96 cents per share, in the year-ago period.
Net sales, excluding Sam's Club membership fees, rose 3.4 percent to $113.2 million.
Analysts were expecting $1.07 per share on revenue of $114 billion.
Wal-Mart says revenue at stores opened at least a year rose 1.5 percent for its namesake U.S. business, below Wall Street's estimate of 1.8 percent. That's the division's fifth straight quarterly gain after posting nine straight quarters of declines. But the figure represents a slowdown from the 2.2 percent growth in the second quarter and a 2.6 percent increase in the first quarter.
For the entire U.S. business, the measure rose 1.7 percent, including a 2.7 percent rise at Sam's Clubs. Continued...
Revenue for Wal-Mart's U.S. business, which accounts for about 60 percent of the company's total business, rose 3.6 percent to $66.1 billion, while revenue at Sam's Club rose 4.7 percent to $13.9 billion. Revenue at its international division, which accounts for about a quarter of Wal-Mart's total revenue, rose 4.7 percent. That marked a slowdown from the previous quarter.
Wal-Mart narrowed its full year earnings guidance and issued a fourth-quarter profit outlook that's below analysts' forecasts.
It now expects earnings per share for the full year to be between $4.88 per share and $4.93 per share. It originally expected earnings per share of $4.83 to $4.93. For the fourth quarter, it expects earnings per share to be $1.53 per share and $1.58 per share. Analysts had expected $1.59 per share.
Wal-Mart's stock fell $2.28 per share, or more than 3 percent, to $69.03 in trading.

Associate Macros w/ Solution Hi!
Perhaps I am not so firm with the concept, but I seek for a way to associate Macros to a solution. Thought, that I can save macros in my solution, but what I found is only some sort of variable-value replacement (Solution Templates -> Configuration) What am I thinking of is if I have Solution A I have Macro 1-5 in my "My Macro" (Macros ->Customize -> My Macros) and in solution B the Macros 6-9, so that the Macro Toolbar is changing, depending on the Solution I am running. Or something, On-Event, which runs if I open a Solution. Cheers Matthias |

Sales of Japanese cars in China plummeted last fall due to an unofficial boycott.

I was hoping I would lose some weight during my first marathon training. However, I haven't lost much. My diet is about the same. I might eat an extra cookie or two in the evening. Is it common not to lose much weight during an 18 week training cycle? I thought after 40 mpw I'll be dropping around 1/2 pound to a pound a week.
I used to lose weight without really trying during a marathon cycle (could eat mostly whatever I wanted during marathon training and drink a lot of beer too!) but my most recent one (highest mpw ever for me) I actually gained, (not muscle but fat--got obviously plump) and ran a crappy time because of it. Seems my metabolism changed when I hit my mid-40s. Now I've been working hard to lose the extra weight before I start my next marathon cycle, really having to pay attention to what I eat.
PRs (need new ones!): 10K 48:28, HM 1:45:49, M 3:47:04
2013: Georgia Marathon 3/17, Atlanta Marathon 10/27
I stop lifting weights hoping I will lose some muscle weight. Maybe after a few more 50 mpw I will see some weight come off. I would like to lose 5 pound hoping it will help me get close to a 3:15 race time
It's not uncommon to maintain weight or even gain some weight during marathon training. Some of it has to do with building muscle in your legs, but I suspect a lot of it is that the increased mileage leads to eating more (often more carbs) for physiological and psychological reasons.
It's pretty hard to argue against the old standard, if you burn more calories than you eat then you lose weight method.
Maybe those extra cookies are pretty high in calories?
Only way to be sure is to count calories for a while. I used www.myfitnesspal.com on my iPhone to track calories and some things really suprised me on how many calories they were.
The only other thought would be that maybe you were burning calories doing something else that you aren't doing now that you are running.
The math is pretty straightforward on weight loss.
At my current weight I burn right around 150 calories a mile running so at 40 mpw that's 6,000 calories. That's almost 7lbs a month of calories burned if I didn't increase my eating. Of course I've increased my eating and I'm losing about 2 or 3lbs a month instead of 7lbs.
A candy bar here, an extra cookie there, don't forget a glass of milk to go with the cookie! It all adds up.
My worry is if for some reason I reduce my miles that I'm running I'm going to have to really be careful and reduce my food that I'm eating.
Age: 45 Weight: 200 Height: 6'2" (Goal weight 200)
2013 Goal #1 - Sub 4 hour First Marathon - 3:48:09 at the Flying Pig 5/5/13!
2013 Goal #2 - Run my age in 10K. PR 6/8/13 - 46:59
I've only gone through one cycle, so my experience is limited. I averaged 58 MPW during an 18-week Pfitz cycle. Looking back at my data, I ended up dropping a couple pounds over the course of the cycle (134.8 down to 132.8), though that really could just be water weight. It looks like my weight fluctuated +/- 3 lbs or so from the baseline during the cycle, though in most instances, the week to week fluctuations were typically < 1 lb. I tried to eat pretty clean and deny myself the calorie bombs, though weekends and holidays would include the occasional (over)indulgence. I had hoped to slim down a bit more during the cycle, but I found that it was difficult to reduce food intake significantly. Gonna see how things go in the next cycle.
PR's: 5K - 19:21 (6/15/13) | 10K - 42:03 (7/4/12) | Half - 1:29:50 (2/17/13) | Full - 3:19:47 (11/10/12)
Upcoming Goal Race: Peachtree Road Race (7/4/13)
Different people have different ways of losing weight - you have to find what works for you. I find that it's quite hard to lose weight during hard training, because the training stimulates appetite. Very easy aerobic exercise of long duration seems to help (walking, very easy running, gentle cycling for example). If you really want to lose weight then you're probably going to experience a bit of hunger. Many people are not used to this and find it difficult initially, but with a bit of practice denying yourself immediate eating at the first onset of hunger you soon learn that it's really not a problem.
I lose weight every January simply by denying myself booze, chocolates, sweets, cakes etc., eating sensible meals and restricting snacks to fruit or raw veg. The trouble is I don't want to spend the whole year like that so often it creeps back on through the year (although I'm 5kg down on where I was last year at this point, so things are OK).
Simple sugars are pretty much the worst thing - lots of calories, crazy insulin fluctuations and don't really satisfy hunger. Trouble is they taste nice!
When do you weigh yourself? I always gained after my long runs but in a couple days my weight would return to normal, so I figured it was water. This was while I was going to weight watchers meetings so I learned to move my long runs to a different day. Fortunately my group leader at that point ran marathons and I'd see her running while I was out running so she knew I wasn't cheating the program. I also learned that my weight goes up anytime I have sore muscles, but when they recover the weight goes back down.
The previous comments about tracking are right on. Running doesn't result in weight loss. Eating less than you burn does. if you are doing gels or something like HEED during your run you have to track that, too. A lot of folks have commented that they either didn't lose, or actually gained during marathon training. The more I run the hungrier I get, and others have reported a similar phenomenon.
Will Run For Bacon
I know very little about physiology but was under the impression that your body adapts to changes very well. So as your body gets used to the training load it burns less calories to move you that distance. The more you work out the less calories you burn to go the same distance. So in the beginning running 40 mpw slowly burned more calories than running 40 mpw slowly does after your body has adapted to that level of stress. To break this cycle you need to add new stress. So add in a day of High Intensity Interval Training to your routine and that should help. Other than that counting calories is the other thing I would recommend..
[Competitive] Jerk
It's pretty hard to argue against the old standard, if you burn more calories than you eat then you lose weight method. The math is pretty straightforward on weight loss.
+1. Calories in vs. calories out. Simple as that. I would love to be 20 lbs lighter for my next marathon but it's a painful and hard journey to lose that weight. I use the metric of 100 calories per mile so 35 mpw would be about 1lbs/week lost if you ate exactly what you ate before you started running. If you eat more the weight loss would be even slower.
While I was on summer vacation I managed to gain 8 lbs while I was running 70+ mpw. It can be done. And sadly it's not even that difficult.

Credit: Jason LaVeris/FilmMagic
Born in 1985 and raised just outside the glitz and glamour of Hollywood in Orange County, Calif., it isn't a surprise that Audrina Patridge aspired to be an actress and model at a young age.
Best known for her appearances on the MTV reality smash The Hills alongside Lauren Conrad and the gang, the brunette beauty achieved her goal of fame in the forum of reality TV. During her time on the show, she has worked as a receptionist at Quixote Studios and at Epic Records.
The reality TV star had two high-profile romances chronicled on the small screen, dating Justin "Bobby" Breschia during the show's fifth season, and briefly courting singer Ryan Cabrera in 2010.
In August 2010, it was announced that Patridge would compete on Season 11 of Dancing With the Stars.

An 82-year-old Washington state man says he was a little sore but otherwise OK after tackling and helping police catch a felon one-third his age.
Terry Miracle, of Longview, was weeding in his garden Friday when heard a commotion. It was police chasing a burglary suspect identified as 27-year-old Morgan Perry Bluehorse.
As officers chased him through yards and over fences, Miracle could hear them coming closer, The Daily News reported Sunday (http://is.gd/riJBlV). Miracle told the newspaper that he got into position, remembering his high school football training from 65 years earlier, and the suspect came barreling around the house.
"He was looking back over his shoulder to see where they were, and he turned around the corner of the house and he was coming at me just like the runners used to do when I played football," Miracle said.
He ran toward the suspect, who halted and stumbled as Miracle launched a "cross-body block."
"I kicked out my knee, as I always did with a cross-body block, and caught his knee with my knee," Miracle said. "He went down and so did I."

Who is actually going to be doing the work on the equalities brief? I think you'll find it's Lynne Featherstone. Whose record is impeccable, whose work ethic is incredible, and whose views are much more acceptable than Mrs May's.
This, along with the fact that whatever her views Theresa May is actually comepetent and capable, and therefore will not be having the "girls suck at math" effect the way Jacqui Smith did, is the reason I am pretty relaxed about her appointment. No amount of flaming from anonytrolls is going to change that.

Sex and the City earned its status as one of the — if not, the — most fashionable TV shows of all time. While that show ended years ago, we're getting a new batch of Carrie Bradshaw ensembles to pore over, courtesy of the CW prequel The Carrie Diaries. This season's styles were filled with the perfect mix of vibrant colors, bold retro prints, and over-the-top accessories we would expect, and we can't wait to see what stylist Eric Daman has in store for us next season. But before tonight's season finale, take a look back at all the fierce fashions Carrie and company wore on the small screen, then shop the looks — including exact pieces — for yourself.

Alice Pincus '72 G
When you meet Alice Pincus '72, her calm demeanor and welcoming smile provide a glimpse into the comfortable family life she has carved out. If you engage her in conversation, you will learn about the many challenges she overcame to follow her dreams.
Born in Haiti, Alice was sent as a child to live in the U.S. due to political unrest. Her parents said good-by to their three children with the hope that they would have a better life outside of their native country.
Leaving everything she knew, Alice arrived in New York at the age of 12 to live with her uncle's family in Bethesda, MD. Although the culture was different and she had to learn English immersed in regular classes, she made the most of her new, educational opportunity. "Given all that my family sacrificed, I knew that I had to embrace my new life head on," shares Alice. "I was fortunate that the public junior high I attended offered great equipment and exceptional teachers." Being close to Washington, DC, Bethesda was a favorite location for Congressional families to raise their children.
It was during these early teen years that Alice was introduced to the science lab. At first struggling with the English language, she was drawn to math and science. She ended up forming a life-long bond with these subjects. As Alice looked forward to attending the public high school, her uncle's job changed and she was given the choice of moving with them to Guatemala or staying in the U.S. on a student visa.
"I was determined to stay in the U.S. so I wrote to St. Anne Academy in Marlboro, MA where one cousin was a resident student, asking them for a scholarship," explains Alice. "And, with their positive response began my lifelong relationship with the Sisters of St. Anne. I started as a sophomore and the small-school experience was just what I needed," she adds. "I participated in almost every activity and learned how to be a leader; but most important I made great friends."
Alice graduated in a class of 42 students, seven of whom went on to AMC, including Alice and her closest friend, Renee (Malboeuf) Morse'72. "Once again, the Sisters came through by helping me obtain a scholarship and locating a Paxton family with whom I could live. How generous of these families who opened their homes to students who couldn't afford to live on campus!" she remarks. However, after her freshman year, Alice faced another struggle and had to find work to pay the tuition going forward. She moved to Worcester sharing apartments with struggling students from other colleges, working two jobs while finishing school.
After graduation, Alice again faced challenges. To remain in the States, she had to marry or stay in school. With Sr. Pauline Madore's assistance, Alice entered the masters in organic chemistry program at Holy Cross, which was going co-ed. She became one of the first women to graduate from the school.
"I went from an all-female to an all-male school, and then entered the work-force during the turbulence of the seventies," claims Alice. "I promptly learned that women had a long way to go to be taken seriously in what was considered a man's world."
Having met other challenges, Alice quickly succeeded professionally, starting her own consulting and contract R&D business, Pincus Associates, in 1983 with the support of her husband, Bob, who joined her full time in 1990. In 1986, Alice became a key founder of a trade organization, RadTech International No. America, and served as its first, full-term president. Her first experience on a board of directors was as chairperson, creating a board.
Once, after a successful business meeting, Alice reflected on her achievements and immediately thought of the scholarship assistance from the Academy and AMC, and particularly of the academic and emotional support from Sr. Pauline, who had been the chemistry department head when Alice attended AMC. She decided to find Sr. Pauline and establish a scholarship in her honor so other international students could realize their dream of a college education.
In addition to fulfilling her educational dreams, Alice was able to find a permanent home in Andover, MA where she has lived for 36 years. "After all the moving around, when Bob and I married in 1974 I told him I wanted to buy a house where we could form a close-knit family and be grounded," she shares. We are glad she did.
Police Commissioner Makes the Grade
Edward F. Davis '90 G
Lowell, MA native, Ed Davis'90G, presides as the 40th Police Commissioner of the City of Boston. He was sworn in by Mayor Thomas Menino on December 4, 2006. Prior to becoming Commissioner of the Boston Police Department, Mr. Davis served as the Superintendent of Police in Lowell, Massachusetts for 12 years. He began his career as a patrol officer in Lowell in 1978 and rose through the ranks before becoming Superintendent in 1994. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including the National Leadership Award (2002) from the Police Executive Research Forum.
Commissioner Davis was also the recipient of the prestigious NIJ Pickett Fellowship and attended the John F. Kennedy School of Government's Program for Senior Government Executives at Harvard University. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice from New Hampshire College and a Master's degree in Criminal Justice from Anna Maria College.
Commissioner Davis has served on the PERF board of directors and was a founding member and first President of the Massachusetts Major City Chiefs Association.
In the recent past, Commissioner Davis shared his thoughts on his career and law enforcement in general. Here is a summary of his thoughts.
Commissioner Davis, why did you enter the criminal justice field?
"I have always been interested in working in law enforcement, particularly for the local police force, since I can remember. My father was a police officer in Lowell where I grew up and I was able to gain first-hand knowledge of what his work entailed. I started my career as a police officer and really enjoyed my role in protecting local neighborhoods. I liked being out of the office, walking the streets and interacting with the public. I still do."
Why did you select Anna Maria College to continue your education?
"The Catholic Mission of the College was a major draw for me. I grew up in the Catholic education system and always believed it delivered a superior product. AMC was also one of the first Colleges in the area offering criminal justice programs for individuals with full-time careers. Once I started the program I became impressed with the instructors and the overall content of the classes."
How has AMC helped your career?
"The professors were great and understood what their students needed to learn. Many had been or were currently working as practitioners in the field. I remember one of my instructors, Jim Brick, a former Assistant District Attorney, who made a tremendous impact on my professional life. Through his support and knowledge, I became involved in researching DNA, which in the late 80's was just coming into the forefront of law enforcement. At the time, DNA evidence was being used effectively in London and as a result of my studies at AMC, I was able to become knowledgeable about important this cutting-edge program. It really has made a significant difference."
What issues do you see facing Criminal Justice Professionals in the future?
"From where I sit right now, budgeting will continue to be a major concern. Large metro areas will have to carefully evaluate what works and what doesn't work so that the limited funds police forces are receiving can be used to implement programs that are the most effective. For example, I think large communities need to build-up community policing programs and pull-back on other initiatives that have less impact on maintaining the safety of our communities, which of course is our first priority."
Carrying Out the Tradition of an AMC Education
Edith Mooney LaVigne '63 G
Edith Mooney LaVigne '63, the youngest of three daughters in the Mooney family, did not envision herself graduating from the same alma mater as her two older sisters. Edith wanted to carve out her own path and thought that she needed to attend a college other than Anna Maria to do so. It turned out however that AMC was the right choice for Edith and, despite the fact that her sisters Ann and Peggy had already blazed the trail at Anna Maria Edith was able to become a woman in her own right.
"My sister Ann was six years older than me, so she had already graduated from Anna Maria when I began my freshman year," shares Edith. "Peggy was in her senior year so even though the campus was fairly small, I was able to make my own friends and create my own niche."
All three Mooney sisters commuted from their Holden home except for Peggy's last semester on campus when both she and Edith lived in the residence hall. Edith majored in sociology and minored in education at Anna Maria and fondly remembers one of her professors, Mrs. Mary Plunkett. According to Edith, Mrs. Plunkett was "sensible and down to earth. She was very wise and had a great sense of humor," she adds.
Edith points to something Mrs. Plunkett shared with her students, words of wisdom that no doubt impacted some of her future choices. "I remember her telling us that whatever group or organization we joined, we should eventually take a position of leadership," explains Edith.
Edith not only remembered these words, she lived them out later in life when she launched the Friends of the Paxton Library, served as the organization's president numerous times and remained a trustee for 15 years.
Other hallmarks of an AMC education impacted Edith's future. After graduating, she along with four other students joined Extension Lay Volunteers of America in an effort to give back to others. "The teachings of the Sisters of Saint Anne regarding social justice and working toward the common good really resonated with me," states Edith. "I truly value the experience I had working as part of this volunteer organization teaching fifth graders in Oklahoma. I came to admire the people, who may have been short on material things but rich and full on values and an appreciation for life."
After fulfilling her one-year commitment to Extension Lay Volunteers of America, Edith returned to the Holden area and taught at the Jefferson School in Holden. In 1965, she married her husband of 45 years, Tom LaVigne and dedicated the rest of her life to raising four children. Today, Edith resides on the Cape with Tom and enjoys spending time with her now eight grandchildren.
Edith also continues to enjoy giving back and taking leadership roles in the community. Both she and her husband are involved with Cape Cod Hospital, and Edith has once again signed on as a Trustee at Anna Maria College, having served in this capacity from 2001-2007. "I am excited to be able to be involved with my alma mater during a time of great change," she shares. "I am very pleased that College is aspiring to academic excellence and working hard to re-establish AMC as a leader in quality, Catholic education. Anna Maria was very good for me. I would definitely recommend it to others."
Planning for Future Generations
Rick Radesky '98 G
Walking into the office of Richard Radesky '98G is like entering a microcosm of CNN with multiple computers and a flat-screen TV operating at the same time. A successful entrepreneur, Rick is at the top of his professional game and makes sure he remains this way by keeping ahead of the curve in our fast-paced global economy.
Rick began carving out his own life path after graduating Shrewsbury High when he decided to join the Navy as a way to earn money for college. After his stint in the service, Rick joined the work force and began to pursue his education part-time: first at Tidewater Community College in Virginia, where he earned an associate's degree in business, and later at Worcester State, where he received his bachelor's degree in psychology. Although Rick had accomplished a great deal in a short time, he had higher aspirations for himself.
"When I first graduated from high school, I thought an associate's degree would open up job opportunities for me," shares Rick. "However, I soon realized that if I wanted to achieve my personal goals, I would need a master's degree to ensure that I had a leg up over the competition."
Rick began pursuing his MBA at Bryant College but soon transferred to Anna Maria. "The educational experience being offered at AMC was much more to my liking," explains Rick. "The small classes and engaged faculty with real-life experiences made all the difference. In addition, its more competitive price made AMC a much better value," he adds.
His time at AMC was well spent as his new MBA made Rick very competitive in the marketplace. "I learned about total quality management, which was in high demand in many industries in the mid-to-late-'90s," says Rick. "My AMC education began to open up doors for me in the business world."
After assisting to streamline operations at United Health Plan, Rick's strong entrepreneurial spirit motivated him to move beyond the corporate world and serve as a consultant in process management. It was during this time that he found a passion for day trading. After a brief stay in Florida, Rick returned to Massachusetts to build a career in wealth management.
"I found that I really enjoyed helping others plan for their future," claims Rick, whose engaging personality was well received by many individuals in the greater Worcester community seeking financial management advice. "Before I knew it, I was the co-creator and host of a show called Planning for the Future, which first aired on WORC-AM and then later on television on Channel 3," he adds. "The show was very successful and featured numerous experts in the field of finance, many of whom came from AMC."
Today, Rick owns a very successful Ameriprise franchise in Worcester and was recently listed in the top 7% of wealth managers by Boston Magazine. Although he has come a long way since graduating from AMC, Rick has never lost sight of how his alma mater helped him spiral to the top of his profession. "My education at AMC provided me with much more than book knowledge. My professors taught me how to think and how to apply a practical knowledge to real world experiences," shares Rick.
According to Rick, he is at a point in his life when it is time to give back. As a financial planner, he can't think of a better way than to endow a planned gift at Anna Maria College.
"Planned giving fits with who I am both personally and professionally," explains Rick. "It demonstrates to others how important it is to learn how to manage your money. It also supports another one of my passions: education," he adds. "The gift I am leaving AMC will provide a full, four-year scholarship for one student a year for as long as Anna Maria exists, which I expect will be forever.
In addition to this generous gift, Rick will soon be teaching in the business department at AMC. "I can't wait to share my knowledge with students about real-world experiences so that they can be better prepared to understand life's ups and downs."
The Anna Maria College Community is very grateful to Rick for his generosity and for insuring that future AMC students will be able to benefit from his good will.

There are several threads (and guides elsewhere) on how to install a Mint LiveDVD on a bootable USB-pendrive. My idea is to do a 'real' Mint install on such a drive.
Is this feasible? Is it wise? If so, how does one go about it?
How large a partition is needed on the pendrive to holdt Mint (32-bit main edition Mint 12) and have sufficient room for supplementary software, configuration stuff etc?
