High school boys basketball notes: University finds scoring options
For those who were worried, there is certainly life after Jordan Barham for the University boys basketball team.
When Barham graduated this past spring, taking with him his 25.9-point scoring average for the Preppers during his senior year, many observers wondered where University's scoring punch was going to come from this season.
Coach Terry Lipford was among them.
"I was a little concerned, for sure," Lipford admitted.
Early returns on the 2012-13 season suggest those concerned shouldn't have been.
The Preppers are off to a 5-1 start and have come at teams from all angles. Whereas last year's team (14-9) was somewhat predictable because Barham was the man when it came to scoring productivity, this year's team has shown nice balance.
Six-foot-5 Sam Bentz is averaging 15.8 points and guard DeAndre Austin is averaging 13.8, while 6-5 Xavier Bonner (7.8), 6-7 Matt Gibbons (6.8) and guard Curtis Black (6.8) aren't far behind.
Through six games, four players have led the team in scoring in a game.
"Jordan was a 25-point scorer, and that's a big hole to fill," Lipford said, "but I knew we had guys who could score for us. The only question was could they play with the level of confidence for us to do well.
"That's been the most impressive thing so far, how confident the players have been. People like Sam Bentz and DeAndre Austin, they're not afraid to take the big shot or make the big shot for us." Continued...
The season is young, obviously. The Preppers play Chardon this Friday and Riverside next Friday — and Lipford said his team is paying close attention to everyone they play.
January's schedule is tough, with nonconference games against Benedictine, St. Ignatius, Notre Dame-Cathedral Latin and others.
"We're going to find out how good we are," Lipford said.
At least he knows now the promise is there to play along with anyone they will see. That wasn't a given at season's start.
"We're playing pretty well," Lipford said. "I think we can do better. We're scoring the basketball (63.3 points per game) and getting production from a lot of people. And we're defending reasonably well (42.4 ppg).
"I'm pleased with the start, but I know we can do even better."
Beavers rising
Also off to a good start are Adam May's Riverside Beavers.
With its 68-58 win over rival Harvey just before Christmas break, the Beavers improved to 5-2. The five wins equal the total from the 2011-12 season.
"The kids are believing they can win," the first-year coach said. "I think the difference is I don't talk about winning basketball games. We talk about winning championships. We want the league championship and then look at the district. Continued...
"Over at (his alma mater) Mentor, they don't even know how many LELs they won, but they know how many district championships they've won."
Like University, Riverside has good scoring balance, too. Adam Hockman's 11.8 average leads the team, but Maxx Brubaker (10.8), Chandler Smith (9.3) and Marcus Wadas (9.2) are all right there, too.
Riverside has a few tough games coming up, this Friday at North and next Friday against the visiting Preppers.
Riverside's goals are established in practice.
"Don't accept failure," May said. "It's not OK to lose. We emphasize every possession you either win or lose. You either succeed or you fail. In the end, that'll help you win basketball games."
Patriot games
With its 77-55 win over Independence, Cornerstone Christian is off to an 8-2 start. The Patriots stuck close with Richmond Heights and also lost to a strong Division IV Fairport team.
Stat attack
Coaches are reminded weekly statistics will run in Friday's editions throughout the season. Statistics need to be reported by 8 p.m. on Thursdays. Stat sheets were emailed to each school. If they were not received, email email@example.com. Notebook items, tidbits, milestones or story ideas can be submitted in the same manner.

Kerkyra snatched the last ticket to next season's soccer Super League by finishing the regular season in 13th place on Sunday, sending Panetolikos and Ergotelis down to the second division along with Doxa Dramas in the process.
The Corfu club drew 1-1 at Aris, but did not even need that as it was already ahead of Ergotelis, which lost 4-2 at Xanthi, and Panetolikos, which went down 4-0 at Panathinaikos.

Explain "Set Lists" to me...
Like (0)
I get the general idea... 8 set lists, 64 presets/patches each...
How is this different than using preset 1-64 and 65-128 etc?
I can see an advantage of not having to tap the bank up/down to patch 312 and all but is there any other advantage I'm not getting?
Do Set Lists allow you to have separate global settings? For example, can I set up these 3 Set Lists?
1) Gigs
Combo Power Amp & Stack Power Amp
2) Recording
Studio/Direct with only "Pre" models
As an aside... Do you think we should set up with Combo Power Amp & Stack Power Amp mode first if connecting to the DT50? I imagine yes, since the 4x12 speaker cabinet will not be FRFR
if i remember correctly no usb sound gets passed accross the L6 LINK anyway so the DT50 doesnt need to be FRFR in that respect.
I'm not sure that's correct...
From the manual:
Note that this Mode setting affects the signal fed to several POD HD500 outputs: Balanced, Unbalanced & Phones outputs as well as USB Record Send & L6 LINK audio outputs.
Based on that, Studio Direct mode sends a cabinet and mic sim to the L6 Link output too, so your cab SHOULD be FRFR for clearest results.
just double checked....
according to the box in the advanced user guide for the HD500 on section 15-2
all usb audio is muted when using the L6 Link with a DT50
Hi Zapenc,
I guess he's not using the USb on stage, he'susing the 1/4" out and XLR, besides the L6 LINK
- Hans
i'm not sure where i got usb from... other than that's the only way i would think to get info into the DT50 that would benefit from FRFR....
otherwise all the HD/DT is in the guitar realm which is where the speakers reside... not the FRFR realm.
anyway... sorry if i misunderstood the inquiry....
Yeah I wasn't thinking USB. No biggie.
Still wondering if Set Lists can let you easily switch from studio patches to live patches without having to go into the global settings back and forth?
The setlists all share the same Output mode across the board. So, if you have the output mode set to Studio Direct, it will show up as studio direct in all of the other setlists.
So Set Lists are just an easy way to organize the 512 presets? They don't seem to serve any other purpose from what I can see.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

1. | ritz | ||
1. A brand of crackers. Many times, they're actually two crackers with a filling in the middle, such as cheese or peanut butter. According to a submitted definition, it's this way because 'Ritz' is apparently slang for a half-Asian, half-European person - the white crackers were the white part and the yellow cheese is the Asian part. Another definition here claims it's that way because the maker of Ritz wanted a fancy name. Whatever the case may be, the cracker brand is owned by a large corperate company - Nabisco - so both explainations seem unlikely, but they may be true.
2. Fancy or elegant. (Exact definition.) 3. 'Stylishness.' This definition is implied from the song 'Puttin' on the Ritz,' which describes one trying to seem stylish, and then says, 'puttin' on the Ritz.' When it says, 'go to... where Fashion sits' before 'puttin' on the Ritz,' it's implying that wearing the latest fashion is related to Ritz, and that Ritz is largely based on your appearance. The song also mentions one trying to look like Gary Cooper, who was a popular celebrity at the time of the song's creation. 'Puttin' on the Ritz' evidently means 'dressing up stylishly.' Now if you're blue
and you don't know where to go to, why don't you go where fashion sits? Puttin' on the Ritz. (...) Dressed up like a million dollar trooper, trying hard to look like Gary Cooper." ~Fred Astaire - Puttin' on the Ritz |
ritz images | |||
2. | ritz | ||
A slang term for Ritalin
e.g. "I need some ritz so I can study for my finals and write my thesis." (which, with the help of ritz, you could complete in one night!)
e.g. "I am so ritzed right now, i could fly." |
3. | ritz | ||
its what you put on when your where fashion sits! "if your blue, and you dont know where to go to, why dont you go where fashion sits. Puttin' on the ritz"
-taco |
4. | ritz | ||
Very fancy, like the hotel.
Est. in Encinitas, CA "Her tricked-out car is ritz!"
5. | Ritz | ||
Apart from crackers, style or wiggers, this word can also be uttered by disappointed or ungrateful persons. It's a simpler way of saying 'big deal', 'so what?', 'Is that all there is?'. Deek stared with incredulity at the meal set before him. In the dead centre of a plate, the size of a small coffee table, lay one solitary dod of potato salad.
"Ritz", he rumbled. |
6. | Ritz | ||
(verb) to fix something, (normally in a hospitality venue), but in a really tacky, down-market or shoddy way. Often done using gaffer tape (aka Ritz tape), or just by trying to carefully arrange the malfunctioning object so it looks vaguely passable for use in the workplace, or with customers.
(adjective) something that has been Ritzed, or has the appearance of having been Ritzed, ie is rickety or broken or just hanging together by a thread. (Derived from an ironic reference to the high-class Ritz chain of hotels). Cory: "Hey Nick, another one of these damn trestle tables has splintered, check out this big chunk that some derro ripped off"
Nick: "Doesn't matter man, we need to get this all sorted. Ritz that shit up" Cory: "With gaffer?" Nick: "Yeah man. It's in the safe." (later) Cory: "All done mate" Nick: "Nice. That shit is hella Ritzy". |
7. | Ritz | ||
Ritz is a slang used for a person that is of Hispanic and White ethnicity. Ritz derives from Ritz Crackers whcih are half crackers and half filled with flavor, like the mix of races. (see also Hybrid Hispanic) "I'm half a cracka they call me Ritz"

Taking my first steps with the Lomography Belair Jetsetter
How did I react when I heard there was a new Lomography camera coming out? Excited! When I finally saw the Belair for the first time it only took me 24 hours to decide and pre-order that baby. I mean hello? 120, built-in light meter and did you see the looks??? REALLY? Everything that was on my wish list just had to wait a little bit longer (sorry Lubitel, sorry Diana baby) and I totally went for this baby!

Earlier this week, I attended "The Business of Content" at HillHoliday in Boston. The event featured three speakers from different aspects of this so-called content world. This was the first time in months that I took a step out of my personal world of content, and my HubSpot world of content, and went to hear how others described it.
We all heard the news of Facebook's major News Feed makeover. But this emphasis on how "vibrant new visuals bring your News Feed to life" is more than a simple design change.
Facebook is my favorite social network -- for both personal and business reasons. Not only does it have points of differentiation from other social networks, it also has the ability to provide everything those social networks have to offer, too. And it's doing so by unknowingly amalgamating what is traditionally called red and blue ocean strategy.
Red Ocean Strategy is the traditional form of business. It's simply finding a way to beat the competition rather than serve an unmet need. It's a businesses goal to provide a product or service that is already being offered -- but better than the business currently offering it. A typical example would be how Pepsi tried to become a better Coke product.
For some reason, all your private messages on Facebook from the year 2009 and back are now public on your Facebook Timeline. As public as the Facebook IPO -- also as sucky.
I was the first person in my entire family, immediate and extended, to be born in America. Entering this world in New Hampshire, I couldn't possibly predict the untold responsibility that was placed on my shoulders.
The past week of my life has been absolutely insane. And while I'm not one to blog about my life -- because how interesting is someone's life anyways -- I want to share some of the most memorable quotes from my two favorite conferences in the United States: INBOUND and ISNA.

6. Can Soy Help Colic?
Can soy formula help our baby's gas-induced colic? Gas is trapped air within the stomach or intestine. It is produced when a certain food or formula is not being properly digested or can also result from swallowing air (this often happens when a baby sucks inefficiently or swallows air as he cries).
A change in formula assumes that the problem is food/formula-related. If you've tried changing to soy and that hasn't helped, (and if your baby is gaining weight and thriving in every other way), then consider the latter situation.
Does your baby cry a lot? If so, expect some gas afterwards. Does he eat ravenously and gulp a lot of air as he does? Then try to anticipate his hunger (as best you can) and burp him more frequently (after an ounce or two or five minutes on the breast). Sometimes changing the type of nipple helps to even a baby's sucking, too. Shorter, squat nipples often help.

- Fiona Apple - The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do (Epic Records) Rating: 9 (out of 10)
Like a contemporary John Lennon or Frida Kahlo, Fiona Apple uses artistic expression as cathartic experience.
There seems to be very little filtering or editing involved in the process after an initial burst of creativity. Whether it's a primal scream, four-line poem or epic canvas the finished object remains relatively raw and unadulterated even after it's been "worked" on.
Where her last album, 2005's Extraordinary Machine, had two producers involved in the mix; this time around Apple has simplified the process completely. The Idler Wheel... strips down production to essentials focusing mainly on piano and voice.
Apple previewed a few of the tracks when she performed at Austin's South by Southwest in March with the full album released on June 19. The CD is available in two different versions with a deluxe set packaged as an actual notebook featuring artwork created by Apple.
Currently on tour, Apple performs her latest tunes at the Orpheum on July 24.

Travel search site Skyscanner recently released a list of the world's rudest nations for visitors, naming the countries whose smiley and friendly natives are apparently confined to their promotional videos. The result, which lists 34 countries, is based on Skyscanner's online poll, which received more than 1,200 responses from Europe, North America and Australia.
La Belle France was declared the champion of impoliteness, garnering nearly 20 percent of the total votes. French people are known for "their abrupt and curt nature," especially while facing foreign tourists, Edinburgh-based Skyscanner told International Business Times. Russia took second place with 16.6 percent of the votes, followed by the United Kingdom (10.4 percent), Germany (9.93 percent) and a puzzingly labeled "Others" (miscellaneous countries). China (4.3 percent) ranked sixth on the list, leading Asia.
China-based etiquette expert Lawrence Lo pointed out that language barriers and cultural differences are the two major players behind the ranking. Yi Bao, Skyscanner marketing manager for China, gave an example to back the "culture difference" theory. According to Yi, though queuing is a social norm in the West, it's not a common behavior for Chinese people, "so [it] could be interpreted as being rude [by international travelers.]"
The personality of hospitality staff is another contributing factor. Lo said many restaurants' waiting staff in Chinese cities are usually young women from rural areas, and that the Chinese are naturally more shy than Westerners. Lo also said the result of the survey depended on what type of travelers were voting.
Travelers, it's your chance to speak up! What do you think is the rudest country for international visitors?

I also have a Weather King Furnace and am very satisfied. I have read some of the comments and disagree with most. Sounds like you all got a bad installer. Air Flow is critical with any furnace, controller allows for 5 tries to light then locks out. Dirty filter will cause overheat and furnace will lock out. With 90% vent that is to small or to long will cause lock out. Don't blame the furnace! Gas pressure is also critical, too high = lockout. Get a Good Furnace Man.

I have a Weatherking 6 yrs old and has never gave me no troubles ever its a 90% eff. and I love it. Maybe all the other reviews need to point the finger at the dealers not the brand name, I do know for a fact they have to be installed correctly to work properly. I am a true believer of weatherking products and would definitly use again, so be careful reviewing when it is probably the installers not the furnace.

Which do you prefer out of the two.
The first design can be found Here
The new design can be found Here
And i've just photoshopped (very poorly) what the new design may look like with a truer colour. The white was only to show the contour and doesn't represent the colour of the finished pandora at all - Just incase there was any confusion.
I'm not saying this will have any bearing on the final design used but I think it will be interesting to see.
REMEMBER: ignore the colour, image quality and things like that. Really the focus is on the edges and change in actual design...cool.
edit: grammar and original link.

New High School Football Playoff System Set for 2013 After MIAA Schools Approve Plan
Schools are broken into six divisions for high school football, starting in 2013, after a MIAA vote was taken Friday.
This could be the last year of regional champions in high school football after the MIAA member schools voted 161-131 in favor of a new playoff format, which would crown state champions, starting with the 2013 season, according to the Boston Herald.
The plan was previously approved by the MIAA Football Committee and Tournament Management Committee, but needed a vote of approval from the general assembly, which took place Friday morning at Assabet Valley Regional in Marlboro.
After two years of the pilot program, the plan will be reviewed.
Highlights of the plan include:
- Eight teams will make the playoffs in each of the six divisions with a state champion to be crowned at Gillette Stadium.
- The playoffs will start after week eight with a break for Thanksgiving Day games, which will stay the same. Teams could meet in the regular season and in the playoffs.
- There will be new divisions based on North, South, Central and West.
What it means locally:
- Division 1 South - Attleboro
- Division 2 South - Mansfield and King Philip
- Division 3 Southwest - Oliver Ames, Stoughton, Norwood, Walpole, Bishop Feehan
- Division 4 South - Sharon, Canton, Foxborough, Dedham and Norton.
A copy of the MIAA proposal and a full breakdown of divisions are posted in the media galery.

"Extremely Funny!"
This was by far the funniest in the series. I did not stop laughing. buy this book if you like comedy. The narrator did a fantastic job with the different voices. My favorite character was Digger
"Talk Dirty To Me!"
This was my first time reading this author, the story was an easy and enjoyable reading, with some laughter thrown in between. lost of sex with plenty of dirty talk. Although some might say the sex is over kill I felt it flowed with the story.I will continue to watch out for the third book, each book has its on enemies, not the same boring adversary. Taran is a latent wolf which means she can not fully change into her wolf form, To make an alliance with another pack her abusive, controlling father who has promised her to an Alpha who is also known for his cruelty of women. Trey the hero who needs to make an alliance with Taran father, kidnaps her strikes a deal with her to get the alliance he needs and get her out of mating the other alpha. If you are considering this, I truly recommended it,
The Judge and Jury is still out on this, I really did not care for this new series as much as the others.. If you read " The Host" by Stephanie Meyer's the story is somewhat like that. Except one has to die and agree to share their body with the spirit of the body walker One minute you may be hearing the main character and the next the other personality So basically you have two individuals sharing a body. I may or may not go on to the second book. Read or listen for yourself and see if you like it. The narrator does and excellent job and there is a twist to it, not a bad story,
just different.
"Over It!"
I can honestly say I am done with this series, the build up is slow, learning about Mira's ineffectually ways of dealing with the death of Kellan. The little spit fire Mira has turned into a brooding, whining annoying young lady,
The story takes place twenty years after the world came to know vampires existed and what happen after first dawn when they were exposed. Plus the events leading up to the peace summit.
We are introduce to Lucan's son Darren and how him and his father are at odds with each other. He is like his father, a born leader and Lucan recognizes it and tries to keep him out of the field fear for his safety. Meanwhile, all Darren wants is a chance to prove himself as a man.
There is a new enemy, not going to spoil it for anyone, since the mystery is part of the appeal, but I will give you a clue, in earlier stories they talked about where the tear drop over a crested moon came from.
The warrior's children are all in their late teens and early twenties, so each one will find his or her mate in this new series, while fighting not only the humans but their new enemy as well.
If you are not ready to let go of the series than continue on, all the original warriors and mates are re- introduced and their political position they hold in world.
If the last book was a struggle for you, this one will make you want to scream in frustration.
Carl Weber did it again! He is the KING of spinster, that man sure knows how to spin a story. This is a murder mystery, just when you might think you know who the killer is, NOPE! It takes another turn, the book is filled with good humor and real life issues. The ladies who sit on the stoop of the building reminds you of 227. Without giving anything away here are the characters: Nancy who is in a marriage that is over, but stays for the sake of her children is having affair with Ben Sr. the fireman, who is not only doing Nancy but a couple of the other ladies iin the building. Connie: who is married to Avery who is down and out because he lost his six figure job and is now working in a furniture story is turned off by Connie's weight gain, she tries to keep her marriage together, but Avery is determine to leave, Avery: runs into a guy named Kane who teaches him how to be happy, the motto is live like you are dying and that is exactly what he does. Then you have Crystal who is coke head and has a history with the man in 3B which the story revolves around Darryl Graham. Ben Jr. who develops a friendshiip with Darryl. His father becomes a little jealous. My only complaint is, you never really get to know Darryl I felt by the end of the story we should have known something of his background. The author keeps his dealing and his history a mystery. I am hoping he does another book telling us the story of Darryl Graham, but with that said, you will have a blast reading this book!
"Intense But Funny"
Carl Weber has not disappointed me thus far, The man knows how to twist a story and take you on a thrill ride. While laughing your behind off!. I won't say anything to give the story away, Some people didn't like it, but I loved it. I think it is a credit well spent for 12 hours.
Patricia R Floyd is the WORST! why don't they tell her smacking is NOT cute or sexy in an audio-book. Carla Patterson was not far behind. but a lot better than Patricia.
Ezra Knight the voice of L.C. is okay, but who talks like that. but all in all it was a good book.
Kresley Cole has sold me! the book is very FUNNY granted one must get pass the first 3 hours, it has a slow build but is necessary to the story. When Ellie starts her hillbilly talking I cracked up "that mouth of Yorns" and "I rode you like a lazy horse and made you cream jeans" Some said it was too long, what couples you know just make up instantaneous over a little misunderstanding of almost beheading?? It also brings in the world of Ivana's (Lothaire's mother) people she was looking for and telling him about at the beginning of the story. GET IT! you will not be disappointed
Awful, had too many sub-stories which took away from the two main characters. Most of the book was the heroin trying to force herself on the hero and the hero saying he did not want her, although he did. Image most of the book " I know he wants me I can see it in his eyes". " I don't want you, what is it about her that I want her but I am not going to take her, she has cast a spell on me". Chapter after chapter of repeating those words in different ways
"They Don't Come Sexier!"
Jace is the third Johnson Brother, he is a hair trigger away from exploding, but I find him to be the funnies of all the brother. He loves with a passion and is very patient with the women he has been searching for. Mary is on the very on a nervous breakdown, although she still loves Jace, she is afraid to give him her heart again in fear of being left. It take a while for the miscommunication to clear the air between them and Mary to come around, but when she does, she does it in a big way. You will love this book, but in you must read or listen to the other two books before this one. Each book sets up the next.
I find that the Johnson Brother are all very sexy, but Jared just has that very dangerous appeal about him. This book is far better than Caleb, but each book set's up the next one
Pros's the stories in each book are funny, although Caleb was the funniest, Cons: her sex scenes need work, two people shouldn't be having a full conversation while in the thro's of passion. If your on the run from enemies, how do you have time to literally stop argue with each other.
All and all it is a good series and I have listen to all three books and each story gets better than the last. Can't wait for Slayed's book

Also in January, McKee Foods Corp. was tapped as the leading bidder with its $27.5 million offer for Hostess' Drake's brand and some of its equipment. Drake's products include Ring Dings, Yodels, Devil Dogs and Yankee Doodles, as well as its coffee cake.
A final decision on those bids is still pending.
Anthony Michael Sabino, a business professor at St. John's University, said Flowers' bid for Wonder Bread was high enough to chase away interest from other potential bidders. The other products have apparently drawn more interest, meaning there will likely be auctions to determine the final purchaser, which could delay those products' return. Still, Sabino thinks Twinkies could be back on shelves by the time school starts in the fall.
"And not a moment too soon, with Americans hungering for a comfort food they never believed they would have to do without," he said.
Each of the bidders already has a track record selling baked goods and other food products.
Flowers owns the Nature's Own and Tastykake brands of products. Grupo Bimbo is one of the nation's largest bakers, with brands include Arnold, Entenmann's, Thomas and Sara Lee.
Metropoulos has experience turning around financially troubled food brands. The firm's food holdings include Pabst Blue Ribbon beer, and in the past have included Chef Boyardee canned pasta, Bumble Bee seafood, PAM cooking spray and Gulden's Mustard, all of which it eventually sold to ConAgra Foods Inc.
McKee, a privately held company, is best known for its Little Debbie brand of snacks.
CNNMoney's James O'Toole contributed reporting.

ADA Accommodation Process
Story 1
Employee Requests an Accommodation
The employee notifies his/her supervisor and/or Compliance Officer in OEO Professional Standards of an impairment, associated difficulties performing job tasks, and the need for some type of change or modification. This information constitutes an "accommodation request." In general, it is the responsibility of the employee with an impairment/disability to inform the employer that they are in need of an accommodation.
If an employee with a known or obvious disability is having performance problems, a supervisor may suggest an accommodation, but only after making a preliminary determination that the performance problem is related to the employee's disability. This is an exception to the general rule against inquiring about disabilities, and extends only to those with known or obvious disabilities.
If the Division has not received an ADA Determination that the employee is an "individual with a disability," as defined by the ADA, refer the employee to OEO Professional Standards for assistance and an ADA Determination.
Employee Meets with Compliance Officer in OEO Professional Standards
Documentation of a "disability" and need for accommodation may be required (in most cases, it is required). The employee will receive the ADA Determination Questionnaire to have completed by their healthcare professional.
The Division must provide a detailed, written job description to the Compliance Officer. This job description must delineate the "essential functions" of the position from the "marginal functions."
The meeting will determine how the employee's impairment/disability limits their ability to perform the essential functions of their job, potential accommodations will be identified, and the effectiveness of such accommodations will be discussed. The meeting will also review any other issues that may be involved, i.e. labor relations issues, worker's compensation issues, requests for extended leaves of absence.
Office of Equal Opportunity Rev. 6/05
In some cases, the accommodation request does not involve a modification to the job, it involves a request for an extended leave of absence for reasons cause by the disability. The employee must submit medical documentation that an extended leave of absence is necessary and will be effective in enabling the employee to return to performing the essential functions of their position with or without an accommodation.
ADA Determination Memo
After the initial interview and completion of the ADA Determination Questionnaire by the employee's healthcare professional, a "Determination Memo" will be sent to the employee's supervisor or designated person who deals with ADA accommodation requests. The memo will state whether the employee is an "individual with a disability," as defined by the ADA; it will outline the employee's essential functions needing accommodation; and will recommend methods of accommodation.
In the event that the compliance officer, the employee, nor the employee's doctor are unable to identify any accommodations that would enable the employee to perform the essential functions for their job, reassignment to a vacant position will be considered as the accommodation.
Reassignment is considered as an accommodation when there are no other accommodations identified that would enable the employee to perform the essential functions of their current position. The employee must be qualified for, and able to perform the essential functions of the vacant position with or without reasonable accommodation.
If reassignment is the accommodation, the employee will be given "a reasonable amount of time" in which to seek alternate employment within the County.
If, at the end of the specified period of time, the employee has not found alternate employment within the County, the Division has two options. The Division, may as a result of the employee not being qualified for any vacant position, opt to grant the employee an additional amount of time to seek alternate employment or they may separate the employee after consultation with the Human Resources Division.
All efforts to provide reasonable accommodation, as well as all conversations and meetings regarding this subject, must be thoroughly documented.
Division Consultation with Employee and Selection of Reasonable Accommodation(s)
The requested accommodation(s) will be reviewed for effectiveness, feasibility, and reasonableness. The Division will select accommodations appropriate for both the employee and the Division.
In the case of an extended leave of absence as an accommodation, the Division will determine whether it is reasonable to provide further leave.
Once the Division selects the accommodation(s), they will detail them in writing to the employee, with a copy to the Compliance Officer.
An employee is not required to accept an accommodation. However, if the employee refuses an accommodation necessary to perform the essential functions of their job, and as a result cannot perform those functions (and is no longer qualified), the individual may be separated from County employment.
V. Review of Accommodations
4 -6 weeks after the accommodations have been granted, the Division will assess the effectiveness of the accommodation(s) in enabling the employee to perform the essential functions of their job. If there is need for further accommodation, or changes to the existing accommodation, this will be discussed.
If the accommodations are not effective and there are no other methods of accommodation can assist the employee in performing the essential functions of their position, then the accommodation of reassignment to a vacant position within the County will be discussed.
Separation from Employment because of Inability to Perform Job Requirements
If, within a "reasonable amount of time" (determined on a case by case basis), the employee does not qualify for a vacant position, the employee will lose his/her protected status under the ADA (as only "qualified individuals with disabilities" are covered by Title I of the ADA).
At this point, the employee who is not qualified for any vacant position, may be separated from county employment after consultation with the Human Resources Division.
All efforts to provide reasonable accommodation, as well as conversations and meetings regarding this subject, must be thoroughly documented

That was very interesting. I recently moved a piece of a layout and left the shadow behind and found what a big difference it makes if the shadow isn't perfectly even around the element.

Andaz Maui Teams Up With Chef Masaharu Morimoto
10/23/2012 | The Scene
Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto owns successful restaurants all over the world. His spots in Philadelphia, New York, Tokyo, Mumbai, and New Delhi have won him plenty of praise and respect from the foodie community. And now the Japanese extraordinaire will open a signature restaurant in Maui as well.
Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort & Spa has teamed up with the former Food Network star to launch Morimoto Maui in Hawaii when the resort opens in the spring. The restaurant will focus on traditional Japanese food and techniques made with local, Hawaiian ingredients.
In an announcement about the new food and beverage concept, Michael Stephens, general manager, Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort & Spa said, "Our relationship with Chef Morimoto is another example of Andaz Maui's fresh approach to luxury in Wailea. This exciting collaboration will enhance the resort experience for our guests and community. As we begin to secure our plan for our amenities and offerings, we could not be more pleased to welcome Chef Morimoto to Andaz."
Design and architecture firm Rockwell Group is spearheading the design of Morimoto Maui, which will encompass a 57-seat interior dining area, 56-seat outdoor terrace, and 23-seat terrace bar. Design elements will include reclaimed teak wood tables and chairs, modern stone sculptural pieces, and black stone floor tiles. The restaurant will also feature an intimate, eight-seat sushi bar serving sushi and sashimi made from some of Maui's freshest, local fish.
Andaz Maui, which is slated to debut in 2013, will offer 297 guestrooms and suites, including seven two-four bedroom residential villas. The 15-acre resort will feature four outdoor infinity pools; a 15,000 square foot full-service spa with a private adult pool; a fitness facility; two full service restaurants; and 15,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor event space.

METAIRIE, La. — The Saints are close to becoming a lame-duck team before assistant head coach Joe Vitt returns from his six-game suspension.
Even so, interim head coach Aaron Kromer said Monday that he won't make drastic changes to a team that has competed hard and showed progress each week during a 0-4 start.
"No loss is easy to take, but you can see more positives and so you would have more of a brighter outlook on the future," Kromer said. "We really feel that we're on the cusp of getting on a roll."
The Saints haven't opened this poorly since 2007, which was Sean Payton's second year as head coach.
That season, they ended up working their way back to .500 at 4-4 before fading in a 7-9 non-playoff season.
This time, Payton is not available to even try to help turn things around because of his season-long suspension in the NFL's bounty investigation.
Only Vitt will return to the coaching staff, and take the reins from Kromer at that time.
Of course, Vitt's return might hold more promise if the Saints could get a win or two before then.
Kromer backs up his optimism by pointing out that all four of the Saints' losses have come by single digits — eight points each in the first two weeks against Washington and Carolina, then by three points in overtime to Kansas City and by a single point at Green Bay.
Indeed, the Saints were excruciatingly close to going 2-2 during their first four games. They blew an 18-point lead in the second half to the Chiefs when their offense uncharacteristically shut down.
At Green Bay, normally reliable playmaker Darren Sproles dropped a short third down pass that, if caught, likely would have allowed the Saints to run the clock down past the two-minute warning before trying a chip shot field goal for the lead.
Instead, the Saints had to try the field goal earlier, and from farther away. Garrett Hartley initially hit it, but the kick was wiped out by tight end David Thomas' holding penalty. The second try, still well within Hartley's range (48 yards), went wide.
The loss squandered a 446-yard, three-touchdown passing performance by Drew Brees, the clearest sign yet that New Orleans' vaunted offense can still be effective without Payton on the sideline.
"If you really study our football team, you would go back like I and our staff has and look at the last four games," Kromer said. "You can see the progress. Obviously it's not good enough because we didn't win. ... The progress is there and we are adjusting well to the situation, but we have to adjust a little better. I keep saying that each week. If you are looking at it, that's the way I see it."
New Orleans next plays at home Sunday night against San Diego, which opened 0-4 in 1992 but still made the playoffs.
At this point, Kromer doesn't want to go so far as to highlight what the Chargers pulled off two decades ago as an example of why it's still OK for the Saints to believe they can make the playoffs for a fourth straight season.
He said the focus has to be narrowed to simply doing whatever it takes to beat the 2012 Chargers, who have started 3-1.
If New Orleans' defense doesn't improve soon, beating San Diego and quarterback Philip Rivers will be a tall order.
Statistically, the Saints' defense improved at Green Bay. The unit produced two turnovers on Malcolm Jenkins' fumble recovery and Patrick Robinson's interception.
The Packers finished with 421 total yards, which actually lowered New Orleans' league-worst average of yards allowed per game to 463.3.
However, the Saints had virtually no pass rush on Aaron Rodgers, allowing him to sustain long drives and convert possessions deep in Saints territory into touchdowns instead of being forced to settle for field goals.
"We have to find a way to affect the quarterback more," first-year defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo said, lamenting that the few times the Saints did get Rodgers to scramble, he was athletic enough to escape and still make a play.
"We had him in the red zone and (defensive tackle) Brodrick (Bunkley) gets his leg, but he maintains his balance going to his left and flicks it out there," Spagnuolo said. "That's a great play by a great quarterback. All those things put together limited what we did affecting the quarterback.
"The disappointment that I have is if we could have found a way to eliminate one score, or force one field goal in the red zone, that's how much of a fine line it is right now," Spagnuolo said.

In this riveting and surprising personal history, John Lithgow shares a backstage view of his own struggle, crisis, and discovery, revealing the early life and career that took place out of the public eye.
Above all Lithgow's memoir is a tribute to his most important influence: his father, Arthur Lithgow, who, as an actor, director, producer, and great lover of Shakespeare, brought theater to John's boyhood. From bedtime stories to Arthur's illustrious productions, performance and storytelling were constant and cherished parts of family life. Drama details with poignancy and sharp recollection the moments that introduced a budding young actor to the undeniable power of theater.
Before Lithgow gained fame with films like The World According to Garp and television shows like 3rd Rock from the Sun, his early years were full of scenes both hilarious and bittersweet. His ruminations on the nature of theater, film acting, and storytelling cut to the heart of why actors are driven to perform, and why people are driven to watch them do it.
Lithgow chronicles the harrowing moments of his past, reflecting with moving candor on friends made and lost, mistakes large and small, and the powerful love of a father who set him on the road to a life onstage. Illuminating, funny, affecting, and thoroughly engrossing, Drama raises the curtain on the making of one of our most beloved actors.
©2011 John Lithgow (P)2011 HarperCollinsPublishers
John Lithgow is an actor I've long admired, but knew little about. In this book, he shares his life with the listener, both professional and personal. I now feel I know the man well. And I also have more to admire about him -- he's an excellent writer. As an actor myself, I learned much about his attitudes toward his craft and his life in the theater, in film, and much of it helpful. His particular career path was a winding one, his experiences, successes and failures, his self discovery -- how he learns from all of it. But it is his relationship with his father that takes center stage. Those are the moments most moving in the book, when he talks about his aging father and literature, drama, the love of words they shared. By book's end, it feels more like a fascinating conversation you've had with John Lithgow over after dinner drinks. Then you suddenly realize, you haven't said a word.
"Intelligently written and spoken"
Language to caress the ears
Finding out that some authors can do justice to their written words
John Lithgow uses language that takes you into his life story. He reads with pathos and articulation. A pleasure to listen to and an education for my ears.
top of the list
As a theatre professional myself it was so very refreshing and inspiring to hear a seasoned member of our
Sure, I'd love to hear your story....
"I'm a sucker for John Lithgow."
I really enjoyed this book, because I am a sucker for John Lithgow. I find every role he does fascinating by virtue of the fact it's him. I am, therefore, not a good reviewer because I am very far from impartial. Having been warned: I loved this book. The amount of self-awareness that had to go into creating this honest and self-effacing look at one's own life required someone with the ability to dig into their own dirty laundry and hold up the piece of which you're most embarassed. That is no easy task. If you're a fan of Lithgow, of the live stage, or an adult looking back on the frailties of our parents and ourselves, I think you'll like it, too.
Yes, wonderful story.
His voice is amazing, he brings the story to life.
Yes, I fInished as fast as I could.
"John Lithgow - The Actor as Storyteller"
I didn't care so much for the long recounting of his childhood. When he hits his professional stride, the story became more interesting. He's a good, but not great, writer but a great actor who brings the non-actor into the heart and purpose of drama.
"an excellent insight into an actor's development"
I would recommend this audiobook to anyone interested in learning about "where actors come from" and in learning more about an interesting person's growth and development. John Lithgow reads his own story, and who better! His narration is a good listen, and there is no question that he knows the subject. I had met John in the early 1970's when he worked at a local theater so I was curious to know more about him. He was a nice guy then, and now I know much more about why he is who he is, and I enjoyed the story of his life. While Lithgow has done a lot of acting, he may not be at the top of the list of "most well known" actors, but that does not prevent the book from being an engrossing and educational listen. Some actor's auto- or bio-graphies tend to be filled with name-dropping and/or self-glorified tales. This book is not that way at all, and reveals more of a personal perspective on the growth of an actor. I really enjoyed the book!
There is something about the way an author reads their own life story that cant be matched. The product would just be that much less impacting if any other narrator took their place.
Told with all the gritty honesty and passion that only Lithgow could have portrayed about his own life journey, this is brilliantly written and stunning to listen to.
John Lithgow played a fairly important role in this... i suppose he would be the stand out for me.
Fantastic engaging storytelling
He is a consummate storyteller.
I actually want to listen to it all again.
I listened to the sample chapter about helping his father later in life and found it compelling. However, very little of the rest of the book was as personal. This is a book for professional actors and directors. I was not interested in the wonders of acting.
I wish it were more personal.
Mr. Lithgow is a marvelous actor and has a great voice, but his perform is not enough to buy this book.

NewerTech, a company that makes the Power2U wall outlets with built-in USB ports for charging your gadgets, now offers them in a selection of colors so your room won't look funny.
So maybe this isn't groundbreaking, but it's still kinda cool. Cool enough that I want them all over my house.
When we moved into our new house one of the first things my wife wanted changed was all the outlet covers so they'd better match with the décor of the rooms. So what does a person do when they want to add one of these neat USB outlets but finds they're only available in white? Not a problem anymore. But what if I want to charge my iPhone in my pumpkin orange bathroom?
The outlets are UL listed and available in three new colors: black, ivory, and light almost, plus the original white. With these you only need the USB cable (not the dopy little adapter) to charge your phones and tablets, plus you don't sacrifice a socket by adding the USB port. Each unit includes two standard grounded sockets and two USB ports.
The MSRP for the outlets is $29,99 (about the price of a new iPhone wall adapter).
Android-controllable stat can be managed at home or away, and it looks great too.
Centralized home control and automation plus boatload of A/V options including dropdown theater screen revitalize 12K-square-foot home.
Should TV manufacturers offer dumbed-down TVs that focus on image quality rather than apps?
Say hello to home control in this high-tech palace, circa 2006.

Content strategist Jennie Kim lays out the three components of a winning content strategy and...
Investment In Knowledge
Selected at random, 78,000 first-time uni-versity student cardholders received a mailing directing them to a website containing financial education lessons and quizzes; a control group of 3,000 students received standard cardholder information. Wells Fargo then monitored each group's subsequent card usage and payment performance.
Not only was the direct mail response strong (7 percent), but also nearly all (97 percent) of the respondents, incentivized by a 60-minute phone card, completed the online test. Impressive above all are the results of this ongoing study: the last measurement, taken in 2007, found clear behavioral distinctions between the experimental and control groups.
Among those who completed the education: 42.6 percent were less likely to have late fee and over-limit charges, 42.8 percent were less likely to be 30 days past due (for 60 days past due, this jumped to 55.9 percent), and 26.5 percent kept lower revolving balances. Not that these improvements came from lower card usage: this group spent 32.7 percent more on their cards than the control group. Even those who just reviewed the educational materials have since established better credit histories.
In the case study supporting the findings, Wells Fargo concluded that, "… the Practical Money Skills for Life curriculum boosted loyalty and increased responsible card usage with their customers … enhancing Wells Fargo's corporate reputation while simultaneously generating long-term revenue."11

The mosquitoes were found on Monday but confirmed with the virus on Friday, according to a West Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District news release.
A trap was used to collect female mosquitoes looking for water sources to lay eggs, according to the release.
"This year we have just been waiting for the first positive mosquito to show up," said Min-Lee Cheng, the district's manager in a news release. "Weather patterns and the availability of mosquito breeding sources have made it almost a certainty the (virus) would be back again this year. We urge our residents to take precautions against mosquitoes this year to avoid a potentially tragic situation."
The district's website says the virus is spread through mosquito and ticks and is a potentially serious illness that occurs in the summer and into the fall.
According to the release, residents should empty any standing water sources around property, be certain window and door screens are repaired and fit tight and use a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended repellent when outdoors at dusk and hours following.
Mosquito problems, standing water and green pools should be reported to 909-635-0307 or www.wvmvcd.org.

Confession time. There may have been times in my life when I've relied on frozen food to feed everyone from me to my family to a whole party of people. I may also have sprinkled it with parsley and called it homemade.
Why don't we want to admit to our frolics with frozen? Well, frozen food is convenient, but is often loaded with questionable ingredients like hydrogenated oils and artificial preservatives, flavors and colors.
Here at Whole Foods Market®, we took a good hard look at what we'd want in the freezer aisle, and made an entirely new line of frozen pizzas, dinners, appetizers and desserts. Of course, like all food in our stores, they meet all our quality standards. But the best part? They taste incredible. Now I get to spend more time eating a delicious, quality meal rather than cooking one. And I am more than happy to admit it!
Take a look. (Word of warning, you may drool.)
Not your average frozen pizza pie, these Schiacciata-style (means "squashed" in Italian) pizzas feature a thin crust perfectly suited to a quick bake in a wood-fired oven where it browns and crisps to perfection.
Still building your backyard wood-fired oven? Fret not. We've par-baked these in an authentic one (in Italy!), so all you have to do is heat and serve for that same great Italian taste. It's a main dish for two or a delicious addition to your appetizer table.
Our grown-up skillet meals for two are not your run-of-the-mill frozen dinners. Ready in seven minutes or less, you can enjoy worldly cuisine together at home with no fuss or takeout tipping.
The Italian meals are created in Italy with the aromatic cheeses that make them irresistible — look for Penne all'Arrabiatta, Fettuccini Alfredo, Gnocchi Quattro Formaggi and more.
And the Asian meals, including Orange Chicken and Broccoli Beef, tantalize the taste buds with complex sauces, crisp vegetables and chicken or beef from animals raised without antibiotics.
Want an impressive spread in minutes? Just heat these new appetizers, serve and party!
Recipes from India to China make for perfect appetizers — think samosas, potstickers and egg rolls — featuring vegetables seasoned with authentic herbs and spices, traditional cooking methods and chicken and pork from animals raised without antibiotics.
A quality leap above what you may have relied on before, our new selection will have your guests wondering if you snuck in a caterer.
Sweet. Creamy. Gooey. Dessert better be darned good, or why bother? We created these special desserts for when your meal for two won't be complete without one — or for when it's just you and you want a nice treat.
Made with the same high-quality ingredients you find throughout our store, each is a delicious experience that makes dessert worth it. With choices like Caramel Apple Blossoms, Caramelized Panna Cotta, Chocolate Lava Cakes and Chocolate Chip Lava Cookies, you should really grab a few. They keep in your freezer so they'll be there when you need them.
Do you turn to frozen foods for convenience? Which of these will make an appearance in your grocery basket?
Welcome to Whole Story, the official blog of Whole Foods Market. Don't know us? In a nutshell, we are the world's leading natural and organic grocer and we're passionate about healthy food and a healthy planet. Learn more about us.
We're lucky to have a whole bunch of smart, passionate people doing incredible things in areas like organics, supporting local growers, green practices, fair trade, micro-lending and all kinds of food related stuff. We'll use this blog to share some of the cool things going on around here.
Of course what makes this blog really exciting is YOU — so join the conversation!

Preview: Florida at Missouri
One month ago, No. 4 Florida left no doubt it was the class of the Southeastern Conference with a resounding home victory over Missouri. The Gators will get a chance to prove it again Tuesday when they try to hand the Tigers their first home loss in nearly a year. Florida shot 59.3 percent from the field and forced 21 turnovers in an 83-52 triumph over Missouri on Jan. 19.
Florida has mostly cruised through its conference schedule - with the Feb. 5 loss at Arkansas the lone exception - as each of its 11 SEC victories have come by at least 17 points. However, Missouri has been almost as dominant at home, going 14-0 at Mizzou Arena with 12 of those wins coming by at least 14 points. The Tigers are 5-3 since losing to the Gators and saw their two-game winning streak snapped Saturday when Arkansas rallied in the final minute. Missouri is riding a 15-game home winning streak.
TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN
ABOUT FLORIDA (21-3, 11-1 SEC): Scottie Wilbekin's all-around play stole the show in the rout of the Tigers in January. Wilbekin notched his first career double-double with 13 points and 10 assists, but his most impressive achievement might have been acting as the main defender against Missouri guard Phil Pressey, who scored two points and committed a career-high 10 turnovers. Florida's defense has been key to the program's best start in conference play since 2006-07, holding 18 of its opponents to fewer than 60 points - including 11 to less than 50. The Gators rank third in the country in scoring defense (52.6) and fifth in field goal percentage defense (37.1).
ABOUT MISSOURI (18-7, 7-5): One of the biggest differences from the first meeting will be the presence of Laurence Bowers, who missed the first Florida contest with a knee injury that sidelined him for five games. Without Bowers, the Gators outscored the Tigers 48-14 in the paint. Even though Bowers is averaging only 7.7 points since his return, Missouri has been outscored in the post only once in those six contests. More impressively, the Tigers have accumulated at least 40 paint points in four of their last five games. Missouri ranks second in the SEC in scoring offense (76.5) and second nationally in rebounding (42.2).
1. Florida has shot at least 50 percent from the field in 12 of its last 14 games.
2. Missouri, which is 10-1 following a loss under coach Frank Haith, has won three straight home games against ranked opponents.
3. The Gators' plus-21.7 scoring margin trails only Indiana nationally.
PREDICTION: Florida 68, Missouri 62

NASHVILLE -- The Houston Astros have traded reliever Wilton Lopez and a player to be named to the Colorado Rockies for right-handers Alex White and Alex Gillingham.
The deal was announced Tuesday night and was the first trade at the winter meetings.
Lopez was 6-3 with 10 saves and a 2.17 ERA in 64 games for the Astros last season. Known for his sharp control, he struck out 54 and walked just eight in 66 1-3 innings. The 29-year-old righty has done well at inducing groundballs and spent the last four seasons with Houston.
The 24-year-old White split last season with the Rockies and Triple-A Colorado Springs. He was 2-9 with a 5.51 ERA in 23 games for the Rockies, including 20 starts. He was the 15th overall pick in the 2009 draft, taken by Cleveland.
The 23-year-old Gillingham was 6-8 with a 3.66 ERA at Class-A Asheville in his first full pro season.

Admit it, you've tugged at the band around your bra, you've readjusted the cups and you've slyly tried to slide a slipping bra strap back onto your shoulder.
Don't be embarrassed, ladies, you're not alone. According to Bare Necessities, about 80 percent of women are wearing the wrong size bra.
Even if you once had the perfect-fitting bra, chances are it needs to be updated. According to MyIntimacy.com, the average woman's breasts change shape, size and distribution more than six times in her lifetime due to factors such as weight loss, weight gain, amount of exercise, childbirth and medications.
If you think it's time you got a bra that fits right, and to give yourself a comfy fit and a more flattering look, follow these tips to find the right-sized bra for you.
First up, size does really matter ...
No. 5: Size yourself up
When it comes to finding a bra, you can't just eye up the undergarment to see if it's the right size. Finding the right bra requires measuring to determine your bust and band size.
To determine your band size, slip the measuring tape under your arms, across the high section of your back and over the top of your chest, above your bust. According to Bare Necessities, if your measurement is an odd number, add 1 inch. Otherwise, this measurement is your band size.
