Recruiting Roundup: Towson, King of the Hill, New York
wpgeoff2 - 6/24/2009
Some extra Recruiting Roundup coverage for Wednesday:
Hodgson to Towson
I received official word that West Islip attack/middie Andrew Hodgson has verbally committed to Towson University. Inside Lacrosse's No. 11 Junior Young Gun from 2008, Hodgson scored 51 points for West Islip during their run to the Class A title. He also helped at the face-off X, and provided a great matchup option with defenses focused on Ian Braddish and Nicky Galasso. Hodgson chose Towson over Hofstra, Syracuse and Delaware.
We've added Hodgson the big board of 2010 recruits. Again, if you have news on 2010 verbals you can email email@example.com.
King of the Hill Notes
Got quick word that the Top Gun Fighting Clams beat the LI Express '11 6-4 in the finals of the King of the Hill tournament Session II this past weekend. LI Express beat Madlax Orange (D.C./Md./Va.) 6-2 in the semis, while the the Clams topped For the Love of the Game 2011s (another LI program) 5-4 in their run. Fighting Clams and LI Express both ranked in our Top 10 Summer Ball Teams to Watch 2009 (Rankings you say? Check the July issue or back here at Blogs.InsideLacrosse.com soon).
In King of the Hills' first session, San Francisco/Alcatraz beat Chicago/Team One 6-4 in the final. SF/Alactraz beat Mile Hi Yellow 9-8 in the semis, while Chicago/Team One knocked out BeLax 9-7.
Empires Alternatives
With the New York Empire games no more, groups have been looking to fill the vacuum left in the state's lacrosse recruiting calendar. So far two major events have popped up. First is the New York Shootout - Presented by Nike. The Tournament will be in a Empire Games style, pitting eight NY regions- Buffalo (Sec. 6), Albany/St. Lawrence (Sec. 2&10), Rochester (Sec. 5), Hudson Valley (Sec. 1&9), Central (Sec. 3), Nassau (Sec. 8), Suffolk (Sec. 1) and Southern Tier (4)-against each other in a tournament format. The event is currently scheduled for Sat. July 25 at Henninger HS in Syracuse, N.Y.
Also, I've heard about the Long Island Showcase. Don't have many details on this but it's supposed to be a Nassau vs. Suffolk event at Dowling University July 21. There's a separate set of games scheduled for Rising Senior/Juniors at Hecksher State Park July 22. Believe tryouts for both of these events have been ongoing. More details to follow.

Hi thereEdit
hey r u really gary from ferndene?
Who's asking? FluoexetinePatch 18:52, June 29, 2012 (UTC)
Vicky W from lavender unit
Oh really? Whats the number of the unit, then? FluoexetinePatch 02:48, June 30, 2012 (UTC)
So it is you. Well, Hi! How you doing? FluoexetinePatch 00:36, July 1, 2012 (UTC)
I'm fine XD how r u?
I'm awesome, thanks for asking. I didn't know you played Battlefield. FluoexetinePatch 10:14, July 3, 2012 (UTC)
Please remember to license your images and give them an appropriate name (so that they're easier to remember) Йура 17:46, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
- Again, make sure you license and name your images appropriately. Йура 19:28, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
- >:(
- I'm not doing that for you, sorry. Йура 20:05, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
I don't mind telling you what you need to do, but it'd be helpful if made the effort in future rather than relying on others. Anyway, what you need to do is send me a URL for where the images came from - unless you screenshotted them yourself, in which case just say so. Either way, if you get back to me then I'll talk you through it - Bondpedia (Contact) [ ] 00:14, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
- Well, we prefer self-made screenshots, so by all means they can stay. What you need to do is go to the individual file page of the images concerned and edit it. First of all, because they are screenshots from a Battlefield game, they need tagging with Template:EA. Then, you need to decide what level of copyright you wish to reserve on the images - the usual (and preferred) license is Public Domain. You can see other options on this page, but if you decide to go with PD, tag them with Template:PD1 and fill in the blanks on that template. After that, they're good to keep - Bondpedia (Contact) [ ] 00:29, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I agree it's pretty complex (although if, like me, you've been doing it a while, it get's easier). Still, it's necessary for legal reasons and there's no way around it. If you want, I can do the required work for you - Bondpedia (Contact) [ ] 00:34, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
No worries. I'll sort out the one's you've already uploaded tomorrow. As for uploading again in the future, don't be put off, just make sure you ask advice if you need it - Bondpedia (Contact) [ ] 00:49, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
*Can't hear FluoexetinePatch over crying and sobbing* Bumblebeeprime09 the Pilot 20:13, September 21, 2011 (UTC)
RE: More images Edit
Hi again. I'll let you into a shortcut that someone made for basic self-made screenshots, but to do it, you'll have to upload using the Special:Upload interface. If you do, copy and paste the following into the 'summary' box:
- {{subst:Up}}
If you do that, it'll all be good - Bondpedia (Contact) [ ] 19:15, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
- As for any images you've already uploaded, I've sorted them all for you - Bondpedia (Contact) [ ] 19:16, September 22, 2011 (UTC)
Did someone pass the word to Anna? Bumblebeeprime09Continental 17:08, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
I see. Is Anna hot/cute? Bumblebeeprime09Continental 20:12, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
I see. Is there anyone else? Have you heard from Madeleine since her arrest? Bumblebeeprime09Continental 20:42, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
I said ATAT. What more could you want for identification? Rampantlion513 Wanna Talk? What I have done 21:49, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
ATAT is paart of my PSN name. Ramp's just too noob to know that not everyone on the wiki knows me by my PSN name. Is there anyone else? Bumblebeeprime09Continental 01:29, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
You don't SERIOUSLY live in a mental hospital, do you? I just wnat to make it clear whether or not you are joking about it too. Bumblebeeprime09Continental 21:37, August 11, 2012 (UTC)
...damn. I thought that from the way you wrote your user profile that you were joking about it. Sorry if I offended you, if you want me to, then I'll get rid of what I have on my Userpage joking about the thing. And as for Sarah, lucky guess. I chose the name Sarah pecause I think it's a nice name for a girl and it's a fairly common one too (Which would also explain the likelyhood of there being a Sarah there that you know).
So may I ask why they have PS3s there?
Bumblebeeprime09Continental 12:21, August 12, 2012 (UTC)
(P.S. I sent you mah friend request, pls add meh)
O I CEdit
So you're alright with my profile description and all? Or do you want me to get rid of it?
Also, since you really are there, may I ask a few questions (I'm just curious)? Bumblebeeprime09Continental 17:29, August 12, 2012 (UTC)
Well, that actually answers my first question (Do you ever get to leave the place?). Also, I'm going to go on a limb and assume that you don't like it that much? Bumblebeeprime09Continental 23:56, August 12, 2012 (UTC)

I just got started into PR, it is very different from BF2 and requires alot more teamwork. My mic malfunctions quite alot, and the servers I join usually only have 5-10 people using mumble per team.

Tip on unknown WeaponEdit
Regarding the second BF4 unknown weapons. It looks like the Saab-Bofors MBT-LAW or NLAW. THe bulkier front end is a dead givaway. Here's a real MBT-LAW:
PS if you can confirm it, can I use your picture for an MBT-LAW/NLAW article on the wikia?
Ferrariguy1000 (talk) 08:03, June 13, 2013 (UTC)
It turns out that there already is an MBT-LAW article. Can the image you found be used on the article?

Edited by Karen E. Bender and Nina de Gramont
About the Anthology
CHOICE explores one of the most polarizing political issues of our time-reproductive choice-what is it like to make any sort of reproductive choice? What is it truly like to use birth control, the morning after pill, use a sperm bank, have an abortion, adopt a child, give a child up for adoption or bring a pregnancy to term? The guiding philosophy of the book is that this issue is too complex and individual to be legislated, and the writers' honesty about their experiences will humanize this issue, no matter what the readers stand is on it.
Library Journal
This anthology's content is aptly described by its title, and the quality of its prose is what makes it distinctive. Bender and de Gramont's attention to the full range of women's reproductive choices should be welcomed in most libraries.
Jackie's Essay:
"The Ballad of Bobbie Jo" inspired her ninth novel, Fly Away Home. It recounts her own experience as a parent through surrogacy, a trial by fire touched by joy that ended with her surrogate's husband divorcing her only because of her choice to bear a child for an infertile couple and a judge's unprecedented decision to grant the husband sole custody of their own two children because, in his opinion, surrogacy was not "psychologically beneficial" to them.

Economic Diversity
Regional Colleges (Midwest)
Economic diversity has received growing attention in higher education, particularly at elite schools that haven't traditionally enrolled large numbers of low-income students or students from low-income families. This table shows the percentage of undergraduates receiving federal Pell Grants for low-income students.
The proportion of students on Pell Grants, which are most often given to undergrads with family incomes under $20,000, isn't a perfect measure of an institution's efforts to achieve economic diversity: A college might enroll a large number of students just above the Pell cutoff, for instance, and percentages at public universities may reflect the wide variation from state to state in the number of qualified low-income students.
Still, many experts say that Pell figures are the best available gauge of how many low-income undergrads there are on a given campus. Pell Grant percentages were calculated using 2011-2012 school year data on the number of Pell Grant recipients at each school collected by the U.S. Department of Education and given to U.S. News and fall 2011 total undergraduate enrollment collected from the colleges themselves by U.S. News.
These rankings are split into 4 regions: North, South, Midwest and West.
School | Percent of undergraduates receiving Pell Grants: |
Central State University
Wilberforce, OH |
90% |
College of the Ozarks
Point Lookout, MO |
71% |
Lincoln College
Lincoln, IL |
68% |
Dunwoody College of Technology

"May you live in interesting times....."
The above is an ancient Chinese proverb with a bit of a different meaning than what it actually says.
It was the first of three curses, with the other two being, "May you come to the attention of the government". And, "May you find what you are looking for".
Each of which can be easily construed to be fraught with peril. And that seems to be where we are now, in..interesting times.
What are you doing to make sure you are getting the most out of living in an interesting time?
Join me tonight at 7:00PM Central for "The Rifleman Radio Show"

I've been in contact with the TACP functional Manager for USAFE at Ramstein AB. He mentioned that if a person can pass the USAF PT test then we are good to go in terms of being fit enough to get in.
While that may be true for getting you in the door, I don't see the PT test being adequate training for the pipeline.
I am interested in the thoughts from some "been there, done that" people if there are any on these boards. I worked out with the TACPs when I was TDY to Hurlburt for intel training and I was busting my ass to keep up with them and I am in no danger of failing my PT test.
Thoughts? Comments?
GET THEE TO THE ARMORY....Try there TACP workout they have here...
Good tip. I just purchased the PDF file and it looks intense for sure! Definitely excited to hurt and sweat blood. I definitely like that is designed to be scalable to your current fitness level. It definitely looks like a program that is not going to be beaten without making you hurt first.
Thanks again for the heads up! That was good looking out.
Like I said on my OSI vs SERE post, I just graduated the TACP techschool last week. I would recommend just making sure your are comfortable with your calisthenics. You should look up the order of excercises and be able to do 20-40 by the 4 count of all of them. Like was said before, when you get there, they are not looking to see who is the strongest guy, but who is going to keep pushing and not quit.
What intel career field are you in now?
Thanks for the input fellas. I am pretty confident in being able to dig down, suffer and keep pushing on. I have finished a 150 mile trail race in the past and currently training for the Italy 200 mile mountain race. I know running is only one facet of pt but in my opinion, it's a step in the right direction.
I am currently a 1n4 Network Intelligence Analyst assigned to the 603d AOC as an Information Operations planner, integrating within the ATO cycle for kinetic and non kinetic effects.

Minnelli's most recent album finds her in a restrained mode appropriate to the intimacy of cabaret, with a lowercase C. It's a mode that suits her well — and not just due to the major vocal limitations of this phase in her career, but because the focus is on the words and the intentions and emotions, and Minnelli's singular gift for expressing these things is a treasure. Whether it's the feeling in "I Got Lost In His Arms," the fun in "You Fascinate Me So" or the frolic in "Confession," this album inspires hope for more decades of Minnelli magic.

Program offers meals and stability for kids in summer
RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR) – Every week during the school year, Feed More's backpack program sends children home with bags filled with food for the weekend.
Now that class is out, the non-profit wants to keep kids well fed all summer long.
Lisa Berkompas volunteers her time making sure boys and girls in our area never do.
"Every now and then I wonder who it's going to. I don't always feel like I'm doing a lot, but the little bit that I am doing along with everyone else is making a big difference," said Berkompas. "It makes me feel really good."
Volunteers and workers at Feed More in Richmond are preparing for their summer meals program.
Chetta Yonaitis with Feed More says it is heartbreaking to know children are going hungry on a daily basis.
"We are going to feed as many children as we can this summer," said Yonaitis. "One in six children in Central Virginia is considered chronically hungry."
For thousands of little ones across our area, the end of school doesn't mean taking a break from hunger.
Feed More's eight week program provides breakfast and lunch to children under 18 in seven different areas. Including Richmond, Hopewell, Henrico, Chesterfield, Hanover, Colonial Heights and Petersburg. Fifty-three sites will serve nearly six thousand meals each weekday.
"We're going to start coming in at 6am on Monday to make sure everything is prepared," said Brenda Hunter. "They'll get a drink and dessert and nice fruit."
Hunter, who cranks out trays of biscuits and macaroni and cheese ready for delivery, said she feel happy and satisfied that she is able to help provide a nutritious meal for the kids.
Knowing they're making an impact, keeps the volunteers coming back all summer long.
Feed More's summer program kicks into high gear Monday and runs through August 24th. If you would like to donate your time or money Feed More would like to hear from you.

COUNTY HURLER Andy O'Brien scored all 2-10 for Saint Patrick's in their Senior hurling championship quarter-final at Arklow on Saturday and still ended up on the losing team.
Bray Emmets were the ones who deservedly advanced to a semi-final meeting with league champions Carnew this coming weekend as they were the sharper and more focused side in this match.
The Saints just did not have the speed and alertness to match the fleet-footed Bray players who were winning all the important duels throughout the field.
And while Andy O'Brien's phenomenal scoring kept Saint Patrick's in contention right to the end, his contribution was still largely confined to freetaking, with all 2-10 coming from placed balls, including the two goals.
Mikey Lee got the Bray show on the road after four minutes with the opening point from a free and Bray went four points clear in the first 10 minutes as Christy Moorehouse chipped in with a fine brace and Dara Lohan posted a single.
Even at that stage the difference in class and fitness was becoming evident with Bray winning most of the battles all over the field.
Andy O'Brien struck two early wides before his radar honed in on the target with a point from a free after 12 minutes and thereafter he gave an exhibition of free-taking.
By the 28th minute Andy O'Brien had clocked up six points for the Saints and they had narrowed the margin to one. O'Brien also picked up a yellow card from outside referee Padraig Byrne, Kilanerin, who was brought in to police the match.
In the 29th minute Bray's Liam Kenny pounced when two Saint Patrick's defenders fluffed attempts to pick and clear and the burly full-forward drilled to the net to put his side 1-7 to 0-6 in front. And when Dara Lohan added a point, it looked as if St. Patrick's were about to be overrun. Andy O'Brien came to the rescue. St. Patrick's won a 20meter free and Andy blasted to the net despite the Bray goal line being packed with players and now there were just two between the sides at the break, 1-8 to 1-6.
Eoin Mason had a huge game for Bray at midfield, were Bray had the upperhand throughout with the assistance of John Henderson. Paul Cunningham was shinning at centre-forward and looked to be a better hurler than footballer.
Mikey Lee was as always their main scoring forward and Arran Murphy showed some excellent stick-work, particularly when he scored his first point.
Bray's defence were also on top with Andy O'Brien the only Wicklow forward posing a serious threat and that came from frees. Full-back Gerry Connors was a towering figure for St. Patrick's in defence. Mikey Lee and Andy O'Brien continued their shootout from frees in the third quarter and after 42 minutes Bray were still clinging to a one score lead, 1-11 to 1-8, despite being the better team.
Minutes later Bray's inside backs conceded a penalty and Andy O'Brien decided to have another 'go'. The sides were level 1-11 to 2-8 after 46 minutes. Briefly one wondered if St. Patrick's were going to pull off a win despite their short comings.
Mikey Lee put Bray back into a two points lead, but Andy O'Brien leveled again from frees. Yellow cards mounted as a result of some wild pulling.
But in the closing minutes the hurling cream came back to the top. Arran Murphy drilled to the net from a ball fired across the face of the goal by Mikey Lee. Lee converted a free and Christy Moorehouse chipped in with his third point to complete the five point victory.
County star Andy O'Brien scored all 2-10 for St. Patrick's from frees. Scorers for Bray Emmets were: Mikey Lee (0-8), Arran Murphy (1-1), Liam Kenny (1-0), Christy Moorehouse (0-3), Dara Lohan (0-2), Mikey Browne (0-1).

Monitoring and Control of Action by the Frontal Lobes
Neuron, Volume 36, Issue 2, 10 October 2002, Pages 309-322
Jeffrey D. Schall, Veit Stuphorn and Joshua W. Brown
SummarySuccess requires deciding among alternatives, controlling the initiation of movements, and judging the consequences of actions. When alternatives are difficult to distinguish, habitual responses must be overcome, or consequences are uncertain, deliberation is necessary and a supervisory system exerts control over the processes that produce sensory-guided movements. We have investigated these processes by recording neural activity in the frontal lobe of macaque monkeys performing a countermanding task. Distinct neurons in the frontal eye field respond to visual stimuli or control the production of the movements. In the supplementary eye field and anterior cingulate cortex, neurons appear not to control directly movement initiation but instead signal the production of errors, the anticipation and delivery of reinforcement, and the presence of processing conflict. These signals form the core of current models of supervisory control of sensorimotor processes.

Expectation Modulates Neural Responses to Pleasant and Aversive Stimuli in Primate Amygdala
Neuron, Volume 55, Issue 6, 20 September 2007, Pages 970-984
Marina A. Belova, Joseph J. Paton, Sara E. Morrison and C. Daniel Salzman
SummaryAnimals and humans learn to approach and acquire pleasant stimuli and to avoid or defend against aversive ones. However, both pleasant and aversive stimuli can elicit arousal and attention, and their salience or intensity increases when they occur by surprise. Thus, adaptive behavior may require that neural circuits compute both stimulus valence—or value—and intensity. To explore how these computations may be implemented, we examined neural responses in the primate amygdala to unexpected reinforcement during learning. Many amygdala neurons responded differently to reinforcement depending upon whether or not it was expected. In some neurons, this modulation occurred only for rewards or aversive stimuli, but not both. In other neurons, expectation similarly modulated responses to both rewards and punishments. These different neuronal populations may subserve two sorts of processes mediated by the amygdala: those activated by surprising reinforcements of both valences—such as enhanced arousal and attention—and those that are valence-specific, such as fear or reward-seeking behavior.

Development and Plasticity of the Primary Visual Cortex
Neuron, Volume 75, Issue 2, 26 July 2012, Pages 230-249
J. Sebastian Espinosa and Michael P. Stryker
SummaryHubel and Wiesel began the modern study of development and plasticity of primary visual cortex (V1), discovering response properties of cortical neurons that distinguished them from their inputs and that were arranged in a functional architecture. Their findings revealed an early innate period of development and a later critical period of dramatic experience-dependent plasticity. Recent studies have used rodents to benefit from biochemistry and genetics. The roles of spontaneous neural activity and molecular signaling in innate, experience-independent development have been clarified, as have the later roles of visual experience. Plasticity produced by monocular visual deprivation (MD) has been dissected into stages governed by distinct signaling mechanisms, some of whose molecular players are known. Many crucial questions remain, but new tools for perturbing cortical cells and measuring plasticity at the level of changes in connections among identified neurons now exist. The future for the study of V1 to illuminate cortical development and plasticity is bright.

Poetry Out Loud
About Poetry Out Loud
Poetry Out Loud is a national poetry recitation contest for high school students, sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the Poetry Foundation. Susan Guthrie and Anna Weber are coordinators for the thirteen counties in Alabama's region 5 (see county map). High school students compete in their classrooms and schools, and school winners go on to a free workshop at UAH in October and a regional competition at UAH in November. Regional winners compete for the state championship in Montgomery in February, and the state champion competes at the national competition in Washington, DC in April. There are prizes all along the way, and the national champion wins a $20,000 scholarship.
Teachers must register by September 15 for their classes to participate. These classes may be in any field of study, but most often are from English, Theatre, and Forensics. The NEA and the Poetry Foundation provide teachers with free, standards-based curriculum materials once their schools register to participate. Materials include one teacher's guide with sample lesson plans to help instructors teach recitation and performance, and two audio CDs featuring well-known actors and writers such as James Earl Jones, Anthony Hopkins, Alyssa Milano, and N. Scott Momaday. Teachers also get two Poetry Out Loud Anthologies and two Poetry Out Loud posters. Each participating school gets one instructional DVD for each school participating. The program requires less than two or three weeks of class time. There is no charge to participate.
Upcoming Events
Finding Your Voice Workshop for students, Friday, October 25, 2013, Wilson Hall Art Gallery, UAH (campus map)
School Winners and their teachers attend an intensive poetry workshop to prepare students for the Regional, State, and National competitions.
Teachers and students pre-register for particular sessions and times, and we plan to have at least three recitation coaches running simultaneous sessions. Original poetry sessions will run as workshops, with students performing their own poems and workshop leaders and other attendees responding and providing constructive criticism. Attendees may sit in on all coaching sessions.
New panels and activities this year including:
Teacher Discussion Panel: Teachers will talk with past participants of Poetry Out Loud.
Recording sessions: Our clinicians will be recording students reciting their poem and then play it back for them so they can hear how changes they make affect their performance.
Virtual Rubric: Need help understanding how the rubric is applied in judging? We are here to help!
Dramatization: How is acting different from recitation?
Mock Competition: Students will have the chance to compete for a mock judging panel to get a feel for the real competition.
Sessions for Original Poetry: Students will work with Poet and UAH faculty member, Anna Weber.
What is "Overall?": It's the category worth the most points... but what is it?

IOWA CITY, Iowa (Ticker) -- Two teams who went deep in their respective conference tournaments square off on Wednesday when Iowa hosts Louisiana State in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament. Iowa (19-15) reached the finals of the Big Ten Conference tournament but lost to Ohio State, 81-64, in its fourth game in as many days. The Hawkeyes had defeated Purdue, Indiana and Wisconsin to reach the championship game. But after starting the season 11-3, they went 5-11 in the Big Ten regular season. LSU (18-14) had a four-game winning streak snapped by Mississippi State in the semifinals of the Southeastern Conference tournament, 57-51. But the Tigers played well to reach the semis, defeating Vanderbilt before upsetting Georgia, 78-76, in the quarterfinals. Freshman guard Antonio Hudson became the first Tiger to make the All-SEC tournament team since 1993 by averaging 21 points and four rebounds a game at the Georgia Dome. The teams have played twice before. LSU won, 92-81, during an in-season tournament in Portland, Oregon, in 1963. They met again during the consolation semifinal of the Maui Invitational in 1996, and LSU posted a 70-60 triumph. But the victory was later forfeited by the NCAA because of rules violations. Iowa most recently played in the NIT in 1998, losing at home to Georgia, 100-93. LSU has not played in the tournament since 1983, when it lost in the first round to New Orleans. |

Graffiti Artist May Have Been Done In By Pumpkin
By editor
Originally published on Thu October 31, 2013 4:22 am
Good morning, I'm Steve Inskeep.
We hear of criminals who leave wallets or phones at the crime scene. That is exactly what a graffiti artist does every time - leaves behind some identifying mark. The trick is to escape any way. And there, a Colorado man fell short. Steamboat Springs police say the suspect tagged downtown properties. Might have been hard to find him except its Halloween, the local paper says police found a similar design on a pumpkin at the graffiti artist's home.

Cyrillus or St. Cyrillus
(*Ku/rillos), ST., was a native of ALEXANDRIA, and nephew of Theophilus, bishop of the same place.
The year of his birth is not known.
After having been a presbyter of the church at Alexandria, he succeeded to the episcopal chair on the death of Theophilus, A. D. 412. To this office he was no sooner elevated than he gave full scope to those dispositions and desires that guided him through an unquiet life. Unbounded ambition and vindictiveness, jealousy of opponents, illdirected cunning, apparent zeal for the truth, and an arrogant desire to lord it over the churches, constituted the character of this vehement patriarch. His restless and turbulent spirit, bent on self-aggrandisement, presents an unfavourable portrait to the impartial historian. Immediately after his elevation, he entered with vigour on the duties supposed to devolve on the prelate of so important a city.
He banished from it the Jews, who are said to have been attempting violence towards the Ch
(*(Erkou/lios), praefectus praetorio Illyrici, A. D. 408-412, is probably the Herculius to whom one of the letters of Chrysostom is addressed.
It is in answer to a letter from Herculius to Chrysostom, and expresses Chrysostom's appreciation of the affection of Herculius for him, which was "known by all the city," i. e. of Constantinople.
The letter was written during Chrysostom's exile, A. D. 404-407. (Chrysostom, Opera, vol. iii. p. 859, ed. Paris, 1834, &c.; Cod. Theod. 11. tit. 17.4; tit. 22.5; 12. tit. 1.172; 15. tit. 1.49.) [J.C.

Defense contractor BAE Systems announced that it will cut another 300 jobs at its armoring plant in West Chester due in part of the lost of a key Army truck contract.
The plant will begin to lay off employees this month and will continue make reductions through the winter.
"It's never easy to make reductions as we realize the impact these decisions have on our employees and their families," said Don Dutton, vice president of BAE Systems' Platform Survivability business, in a statement.
"Although it is disheartening, we must face the fact that in order to remain competitive, we must control costs and align and adjust our business to current customer needs and production requirements."
According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, after the reductions, BAE, which employed about 1,800 at the start of this year, will have reduced employment to about 850.
The company will provide advanced notice to the affected workers. The company will also offer severance pay and help finding jobs to those affected.

Best of 8 Sarasota Vacations so far
Best of 8 Sarasota Vacations so far
- Guest Bill (MA)
- Date of stay 10/19/13
- Review Submitted 12/15/13
We have a daughter w/ family in Sarasota, & we've visited in the Oct - Nov time frame for the past 8 years. On this visit, we were 3 couples (late 50s early 60s), 2 couples staying for 2 weeks and one for 1 week. The accommodations were every bit as nice and accurate as described in the listing, and proved to be as close to ideal for us as possible. The pool was fabulous & the main entrance to the beach with full amenities is a 3-4 minute leisurely walk away. The wagon made bringing all our "necessary stuff" a breeze. Cindy & Jim were very friendly, informative, and gracious hosts. If you're undecided & have questions, don't hesitate to write or call them. Would I stay here again? Absolutley!Recommended for: Romantic getaway, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+, tourists without a car, families with young children, people with disabilities, families with teenagers, adventure seekers.

This was our first time at Siesta Key and it will not be our last. The location is excellent. It is a short walk to the #1 beach in the USA, the village is close and the private pool was great. The house lay out is was really good for us as there were two couples and the house has two master bedrooms. I would recommend this home to anyone wanting a great experience in Siesta Key.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

This was the perfect vacation rental for our family. The pool was excellent and it was so close to the beach just a short walk and with the wagon they have at the house it made the short walk even easier. We took our 10 month old with us and the house is great for children we didn't have to worry about stairs or anything dangerous and it was much more comfortable than a hotel. There was a slight mix up when we arrived with overlapping reservations but Cindy made up for it quickly and they got me into another property for the night within minutes. Mistakes happen I understand that I was just glad to see that they took responsibility for it and took care of everything so quickly.Recommended for: Girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, people with disabilities, families with teenagers.

Dear Cindy, Jim & Michael, we have been telling everyone how great your house was and and wanted you to know also. The location couldn't have been more perfect. We had thought we wanted to be right on the beach, but the 5 minute walk helped to get some of the sand off and provided a bit of exercise as well. It was nice to have the outside shower to get off the rest of the sand outside. That beach was absolutely beautiful. My youngest grandson kept picking up that beautiful white, fine sand and saying, "Snowing! Snowing!". We just hope he doesn't go outside in the snow barefoot now! The layout of the house was great. I loved have 3 FULL bathrooms. And the bedroom and bath at the other end of the house was perfect. Grama and Grandpa could sleep as late as they wanted-well until our granddaughter came knocking and saying, "Wakey, wakey!" Having the pool and grill was also wonderful. We fully enjoyed both. Cindy, Jim & Michael- you were the nicest! So helpfl and willing to fix whatever we complained about (and that was very little)! It was great having you next door. The house definitely had whatever we needed and then some. We are trying to coordinate schedules to try to book this for next year. So we'll be talking to you soon. Thanks again for everything, BunniDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

JIm & Cindy, I want to let you know how much my friends and I enjoyed our stay at 5612 Cape Leyte. The rental home was clean, spacious and fully stocked with all the appliances and kitchen facilities we could need. It was in an excellent neighborhood and close to the beach and the village. We were all very pleased and would definitely return again if we travel again in the future to Siesta Key. Also thanks for your hospitality and friendliness in all our dealings. Thanks again and have a nice use. You may use myself as a reference to others. PaulDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

SOME doctors LIE when they've made an error.
SOME doctors tell the family of every patient in their care who dies, that the patient died of cardiac arrest….WE ALL DIE OF CARDIAC ARREST!!!
To the doctors who do this—shame on you! You can only fool some of the people some of the time! -

Last time I was in hospital a young nurse blew me every morning
darry brown
then she allowed me to give her anal as a special treat
I didn't see any nurses talk about how they chart giving medications when they really forgot to give them, or how they pocket medications for themselves instead of giving the meds to the patient. This goes on all the time in hospitals, home health and nursing homes. Another dirty little secret is nurses lie all the time to cover themselves. And because all they have to do is chart they did something, unless you witnessed them not doing it, it's your word against their lying words.

About Le Creuset of America Inc.
Le Creuset is best known for its cast iron cookware, which has been used for cooking utensils since the Middle Ages. The Le Creuset factory is at Fresnoy-Le-Grand in Northern France.
In 1925, the foundry began producing cast iron by hand-casting molten iron in sand molds - still the most delicate stage of the production process. Even today, after casting, each mold is destroyed and the cookware is polished and sanded by hand then scrutinized for imperfections. Once declared good for enameling, the items are sprayed with two separate coats of enamel and fired after each process at a temperature of 800 degrees F Celsius. The enamel then becomes extremely hard and durable, making it almost completely resistant to damage during normal use. Because much of the finishing is done by hand, each Le Creuset cast iron cookware piece is completely unique. Le Creuset is an excellent choice in cookware, and one you'll appreciate for years to come.

Dec06 dieter ramsten principles for good designindustrial designless is moredocumentarydesignapplejonathan ivesimplicityinnovationcreativitymaggie Dieter Rams looks back on his career in this short documentary from publisher Gestalten. Released a while back in conjunction with the publication of Less is More, it's a nice compliment to the immense Rams collection. Always a nice treat to refresh one's self on Ram's Ten Principles for Good Design (which Patrick posted about earlier in the year after a trip to SFMOMA). Elsewhere, a quick related (though old-ish) read: Dieter Rams, Jonathan Ives and the evolution of Apple design. - Maggie Permalink

Jun05 a brief history of john baldessariart historycontemporary artdocumentaryjohn baldessarisupermarcheMaggie "The godfather of conceptual art," John Baldessari is widely considered a historical giant in the contemporary art world, known for rearranging found images and texts - forcing one to wonder how, and what exactly, the images are communicating. Appropriately, when Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman of Supermarché (the pair behind 2010's much buzzed about documentary, Catfish) set out to create a small look into John Baldessari's life and career, they turned the conventional profile documentary format on its head. Instead, Baldessari's immense career has been compressed into six amazing (and somewhat disorienting) minutes, as Joost and Schulman jump between mundane images of Baldessari's everyday life, jumbled narrative, and a playful back-and-forth between Baldessari and the story's faceless narrator - the deep grizzled voice of Tom Waits (requested specifically by Baldessari). The film, from start to finish, is a playful and clever sendup to the self-aware artist's signature tongue-in-cheek tone, and it's more than worth its short six minutes of play time. I love the jumping details of Baldessari's life - the shots of pencils, the peep holes, the "this is John Baldessari waving goodbye." - Maggie Permalink
Dec01 documentaryhere comes the neighborhoodinnovationinspirationstreet arturban artwynwood wallbuffaloart This year's Art & Design Issue of Block Club focused on the reuse of old objects and the revitalizing power of art. Artist Patti Harris was quoted, saying, "I feel like this old stuff needs to be brought back, or that it needs to be remembered, or utilized, or shown that it is quite beautiful. Or that you can make it beautiful." Indeed, the same notion applies to the power of public art - the reclaiming of the monochrome urban landscape as something more reflective of the vivid undercurrent and heartbeat of city life. Here Comes the Neighborhood is a wonderful short-form docuseries that explores the power of public art. This installment focuses on the Wynwood Wall of Miami, following the key players of this outdoor street museum project. It would be truly amazing to see a similar effort unfold across Buffalo's urban canvas - lush with fantastic old warehouses and grain elevators. Buffalo News arts writer Colin Dabkowski explored the public art of Buffalo last year, lamenting the government's slight of the vibrant artistic community that thrives in our city. Perhaps Buffalo, in time, can too see a successful public reclaiming and reuse of its urban landscape - have you checked out Omaha lately? - Maggie Permalink
Nov01 little scraps of paperpaul bowerdocumentaryinspirationidea creationartillustrationdesign Little Scraps of Paper is a series of short documentary films about how people develop ideas and the places they keep them in. This segment follows artist and illustrator Paul Bower as he explains the relationship between his sketchbook and impromptu inspiration: "I like the chance, the haphazardness. When two things are on a page together, and they shouldn't really belong. But they do… the instant feeling of things." - Maggie Permalink
