To those who remember him, Kwasi Sherman was not just a brilliant basketball player, but a "tremendous character," well-liked by everyone.
Even as a sophomore at Hamilton High, Sherman was a Division I prospect for college recruiters, a "complete player," said Coach John Smith, "very coachable and with a great future ahead of him."
That future came to an early end, however, when he was diagnosed with leukemia during conditioning for his junior year and passed away at the age of 17 in November 1995, what should have been his senior year.
In January, Hamilton High School will honor Sherman by hanging his jersey in the hallway near the athletic center, an effort spearheaded by teammate Jimi Sizemore, who is now a physical education teacher at Linden Elementary School and a basketball coach for the district.
"During his freshman year, he was very awkward," Sizemore said. "He was 6-foot-9, and he started coming into his body. Between his freshman and sophomore year, he made a huge jump in his playing ability, and everybody knew this guy was going to be for real."
"But people also cared for him as a person more than just a basketball player," Sizemore said. "His stature made him stand out, but he was always smiling and people just related to him."
Even as a sophomore, college coaches and recruiters started making overtures. Sizemore recalled a hand-written letter from legendary Indiana Hoosiers Coach Bobby Knight.
"Coaches from Michigan would come down to our open gym to watch him play," Sizemore said.
But the following year, when it came time to start fall conditioning, Sherman's health started to fail.
"He was finishing last in everything," Sizemore said. "Nobody knew anything was wrong."
"We used to take our kids over to Northwood Terrace to run up the hill there," Coach Smith said. "I still vividly remember Jimi Sizemore carrying him up the hill. It was just a couple of days after that when his mother called to tell me he'd been diagnosed with leukemia."
Sizemore said that around four years ago, Hamilton High School got a new batch of jerseys for its basketball team and sold the old ones.
"I bought mine and I bought Kwasi's and packed it away," he said. "I recently came across it and thought that it needed to be in the new gym."
The framed jersey will be dedicated at halftime Jan. 4 when Hamilton plays Middletown.
The Hamilton Community Foundation also honors Sherman with a scholarship in his name, given to a Hamilton High School student who has shown the ability to overcome adversity.
The 2012 recipient, Stephen McGhee, was given the scholarship because of his perseverance after the 2009 death of his father.

With Europe and its 35% voting weight solidly lined up behind French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde, President Barack Obama has what amounts to a casting vote in the contest to decide who will be the next managing director of the International Monetary Fund.
As such, he looks likely to come under intense lobbying pressure from the four European members of the G8 (and the E.U. Commission and Council Presidents, who are also both in Deauville for the summit) to throw his weight behind Lagarde, too.
Global leaders have started the formal process to replace International Monetary Fund Chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who early Thursday resigned following his weekend arrest on sexual-assault charges, World Bank President Robert Zoellick said Thursday. Mr. Zoellick said the selection process will be transparent and merit-based. "There's a process that the countries will use, and the shareholders and you can see it starting to form now," Mr. Zoellick said after speaking at the Bretton Woods Committee annual conference. "It's up to the shareholders to decide the next process that they take in leadership and I'm sure they'll pick a very fine person." The Group of 20 industrialized nations promised to change the leadership selection process at both the IMF and World Bank, suggesting a move away from the automatic appointment of a European official to the IMf and an American to the World Bank.
European interest rates are still far below any level that could be described as normal, and have to be raised sooner or later, a senior International Monetary Fund official said Friday.
"Even if there were no inflationary concerns, it would just not be reasonable to expect interest rates to remain where they are today," Antonio Borges, the IMF's director for Europe, told a press conference during the IMF and World Bank spring meetings. "Nobody can expect interest rates to stay at 1.25%–this is just not possible from a point of view of resource allocation."
Brazil's economic policy framework has been "well tested" over the last 10 years, and helped the country cope with the global economic and financial crisis of 2008, central bank president Alexandre Tombini said Friday.
"We have now in Brazil and in many countries in Latin America a very well tested policy framework," Mr. Tombini told a conference at the Brookings Institution in Washington.
The coordinated intervention by the Group of Seven major industrialized economies contained the risk that a strengthening yen after Japan's devastating earthquake would damage the economic recovery, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Friday after a bilateral meeting with the Japanese finance minister.
Speaking through an interpreter, Finance Minister Yoshihiko Noda said the G-7 intervention was "very significant and effective."
Mr. Geithner said, "I think it is very important that we were able to come together as the G-7 in exceptional circumstances a few weeks ago a help Japan contain the risk that a sharp appreciation of the yen would damage the recovery."
Foreign media are responsible for spreading confusion about Germany's attitude to the Greek debt problem, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said Friday.
Schaeuble told a press conference that his comments in an interview published Thursday by the German newspaper Die Welt had been misrepresented by English-language media to mean that the country would push for an early restructuring of Greek debt.
By Ian Talley and Matthew Dalton
Greece's bailout program will be able to succeed without restructuring the beleaguered country's debt if it perseveres in implementing the program, the head of the International Monetary Fund said Thursday.
"Greece will make it provided two things: first that all what is in the program will be really implemented in due time…secondly, what the Europeans have committed to has to be done, too," IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said in a news conference ahead of the IMF and World Bank spring meetings. "If it is correctly addressed by the Greeks on one hand and the euro zone on the other hand, I see no reason why it won't work."
Mr. Strauss-Kahn later complained that Europe's proposals for a package to tackle its severe growth and debt crisis haven't been thorough enough. "The question is how to address this problem really comprehensively, and that is still what's missing. I hope that these spring meetings in Washington will be an occasion for all the stakeholders to go more into this type of approach," he told Bloomberg TV. "We have been arguing in the IMF for at least six months…there is a need for a more comprehensive plan," the IMF chief said.
Separately, the European Union economics commissioner on Thursday said that restructuring the debt of Greece or any other euro-zone country could spark a "chain reaction" through the banking system and damage the real economy. "We do not see debt restructuring as an option," Olli Rehn said, referring to Greece. He was speaking at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.
Investors have become increasingly convinced that Greece can't handle its large debt load and that the government will have to restructure. But EU authorities have pledged that all debt issued by euro-zone governments before June 2013 will be repaid in full.

Hi there
Should I've asked you what's your name?
Should you've asked me the same?
But dig
Let's not be wasting our time
Let's not lead each other blind
If you don't want me
My heart can't strain, yeah, another time
There's only 24 hours in a day
And that don't leave much time to play
I don't dig that no way, honey
Coz my heart can't take it, no, another day
Listen to me honey
I've been told by many different girls
'Otis I love you, oh boy'
They tell me this from the bottom of their soul
But they didn't mean it
Listen, I...
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/otis-redding-a-waste-of-time-lyrics.html ]
I've been let down, yo
Hit the ground
And called the biggest, the biggest fool
Biggest fool ever walked on this ground
I can't stand it, no no no no,
To be built up, way on up, and let down
Being loved, yo, is home in my mind
I don't like that
I like for it to be from the heart
And I found out later on I was wasting my time
Just a waste of time yeah
Somebody understand what I'm saying
What I say
It's just a waste of time
If you don't want me mama
Don't just leave me hanging
Don't just let me waste my time, no no
Somebody gotta get the message to me
No I don't wanna...

just read about Your Member – I don't think it will work for our needs. Authorize.net AIM payment integration is essential and it seems Your Member is PayPal only.
Thanks for the reply – I'd love to hear more. Are you selling the plugin? Is "Your Member" comparable to "amember"? I've already purchased the pro version of amember – so it would need to be pretty inciting to switch at this point, but I'm certainly open to it.
I'm also trying to integrate ecommerce capabilities into Buddy Press – but for a completely different reason.
We are setting up a campaign website on the MU platform to use the strength of WP's CMS for the blog, new, media parts of the site – and then utilize MU and BuddyPress to allow campaigners / supports a place to communicate and interact. (similar to Barak's "my.BarakObama.com")
We want to allow supports to donate to the campaign and track there donations on their member pages. I'm looking into a 3rd Party Member management platform called "amember" (www.amember.com) as it has a wordpress integration plugin and offers the ability to sell "subscription" products. It is only tested with the standard version of WP – not MU, so I'm running into some database issues where the wp_1_ prefix is throwing me for a loop. (I'm not the best PHP programmer)
Any thoughts on using these two platforms together? Is there a better solution?

"Outta Control Remix" is the fourth and final single from 50 Cent's second album, The Massacre. The song was written by 50 Cent, Dr. Dre, Mike Elizondo, Prodigy, Havoc, Mark Batson, C.Pope, and S.Standard and produced by Dr. Dre and Elizondo. It was originally released as "Outta Control" on the original version of The Massacre. This version was just 50 Cent with no features on the song. However, when the album was set for re-release, the song became earmarked as the album's next single and was remade as "Outta Control Remix". The remix not only features Mobb Deep, but utilizes a different sample. However, no advanced single was released for "Outta Control Remix". This led to confusion among digital consumers who downloaded the original version "Outta Control" causing it to chart concurrently with "Outta Control Remix". (No advanced digital single was ever released for "Outta Control Remix").
Former G-Unit member The Game made a diss track entitled "Mr. Potato Head" aimed at the G-Unit camp over the instrumental. The track appeared on his mixtape "Ghost Unit" which is mostly dissing G-Unit.

Fabric gets softer with each wash....
By: Radioman
Deep pockets, rugged material, roomy fit and all around good to work in, also you look professional wearing these shorts and not like a bum with the loose jersey shorts on. What else can I say about these shorts? They get better with each wash the material gets softer with each wash. They also do not shrink in the wash. The leather tape measure patch is great so you wont wear out your top pocket. I do wish they would add a pencil pocket just in case you wear these with a T-shirt. Other than that no complaints and would recommend these Wrangler Shorts.
Was this review helpful To you?

Did you notce, that the same girl that scanned an item, and said there were 18 in the back WAS the same girl who rang her up.. uh huh... Sneaky Sneaky... Also... The nivea men;s body wash.... She was using the 2.00 target coupon for any q10 item... Man, that just pisses me off |
One last note. I don't exactly try to fly under the radar and I don't mind trying to use more than one T Q in a transaction (figure it is a YMMV), but I do believe in keeping orders to a reasonable size if possible. Keeps employees, managers & customers in a better mood. But the other day I ended up behind a gal with 2 heaping carts full of all our recent deals, SOBE, GE, Scrubbing Bubbles, Airwick, etc. We had a young male clerk so I thought I'd wait it out. I swear her stack of Q's was over 3 inches thick and I'm not exaggerating. All went well for nearly 2/3rd of the transaction. He was a K1 jedi on the Airwick beeping scents and the beeping Sobe flavors, but then a LOD came over to see what was taking so long and next thing they were pouring over each Q and every item in her overloaded carts. On a positive note for me it distracted the LOD for so long I was able to check out 4 separate times with 30-40 Sobe in each transaction taking the time to load each in the car without her being free to wander over my way and start going on about the 1 T Q per transaction rule. (BTW - I barely made a dent in the Sobe it was very well stocked) |
$4.00 MQ for Olay Total Effects BW on Secret Deodorant $2.00 TQ for Nivea Q10 Shave Gel or Balm on Nivea Body Wash $4.00 MQ for Schick Intuition Razor or Refill (expired 6/6) on Schick Shave Gel $1.00 IP for Vaseline Clinical Therapy paired with the .75 TQ on Vaseline Lotion (3.1 oz or larger)on Vaseline Total Moisture (3.0 oz) $5.00 MQ for Windex Outdoor All In One Glass Cleaning Tool on the Windex Also, it looked like she was having the lady go and get her the $3.99 Schick Razors T carries from the back and that is prob why she had to get a Schick gel bc the lady did not have the 18 razors she needed to use all of her Q's. Go and look at the pics on her blog. Last edited by krysdl08; 06-10-2010 at 08:43 PM.. |
There are sooooo many things wrong with this youtube poster- DivaforcouponFRAUD is more like it.
Can someone please, please, please pass this along to corp. and the powers that be to do what they will. It scares me to think of her TEACHING others her methods of gross interpretation. Then, imagine her little minions let loose upon the world. Her "graduate" was the one with a $600+ transaction down to $6, or so. EEEK!! I think I'm about to hurl my Sobe up. Last edited by mamajayjay; 06-10-2010 at 08:37 PM.. |
The dollar amnt she and her little friend "saved"/ coupon abused/stole (almost $1000 worth right??) would be considered theft and should hopefully get her arrested.
Anyone here can and should report her to that Target Store(or all target store managers in her area, include her whosit personal info from her blog and her blog name as well as the video links) She is not only infecting that area with teaching fraud but her videos could be breeding other would be fraudsters in ALL OF OUR AREAS The managers at this particular store need to be aware of the exact coupons she used and what they were actually for so that the MGRS can grasp just HOW MUCH she illegally stole (with coupon abuse) from their store Someone should send the links and exact coupon abused items to target headquarters via email This is the type of person that is making it hard for the honest q shoppers, like me, to do a simple legit coupon transaction Is there a way to SAVE the youtube video before she pulls it? I am sure that someone will tell her that she is committing fraud and geting reported ( CAN SOMEONE RECORD THE VIDEO WITH THEIR PHONE OR CAMCORDER and save it???) Has anyone given a "heads up" about this on the SD Drugstore/Grocery store forum.????? They love updates on "extreme couponer" news stories.And I think they should be made aware,especially the drugstore forum posters who live in her area because who knows what other partners in crime cashiers she has at Wags/ CVS and the other stores she shops at. This may not be on the evening news today but with enough SDer reports to her Target, this could be worthy of Target getting law enforcement involved and then maybe even the news. Oh and Dh thinks that BOTH cashiers are in on it and probably getting kickbacks(notice the cashier pushing k1 as the other scanned the coupons- NEITHER reading the q's!!!!!!!!!) Last edited by juliebeans; 06-10-2010 at 09:05 PM.. |
for someone who is supposedly a coupon god and teaches her wisdom in workshops (hey, wonder if SHE allows coupons to be used to pay for her classes), why on earth would she think paying .45 for a small cup of lucky charms was a deal? i am not even a hardcore couponer and even i know target and grocery stores are always having some sort of cereal deal where people are getting whole boxes for that amount, and sometimes cheaper
If anyone can watch the video and list out the specifics (and take screenshots too), I say we all write a letter to corporate and include these facts. There is NOTHING wrong with using coupons to our best advantage (stacking, using on trial sizes, finding overages, etc), but I think we all agree this is ridiculous and not fair to the honest couponers. THIS is why we're being treated like criminals!
And can I just say this video made steam come out of my ears! I get harrassed and made to feel like a thief b/c my $1 coupon says INF or the picture on the coupon looks different from the product I'm buying....but this lady steals thousands without a blink? GRRRRRRRR |

As the FIFA World Cup that saw the number of participating nations leap from 16 to 24, Spain 82 confirmed the expansion of the global sport and enabled New Zealand, El Salvador, Honduras, Cameroon, Algeria and Kuwait to visit the dizzy heights on Iberian turf.
Despite Hungary's humiliation of El Salvador (10-1), the decision to welcome more teams to the finals was more than justified when Algeria marked their first appearance in the world's showpiece tournament with a 2-1 victory over West Germany on 16 June in Gijon. The reigning European champions had been undefeated for four years.
That defeat would not prevent the Germans from reaching the semi-finals, where they came up against an exciting young French side. The game in Seville, besides being a breathtaking spectacle (3-3), would enter FIFA World Cup history as the first match to be decided by a penalty shoot-out.
These landmark events notwithstanding, it was three-time world champions Brazil who attracted the focus of attention after their relative disappointments in the two previous tournaments (4th in 1974 and 3rd in 1978).
In Junior, Cerezo, Falcao, Socrates and Zico, Télé Santana, an evangelist of the beautiful game, had assembled the most talented group of disciples since 1970. Santana dreamed of artistic football and magical goals, all played in the best spirit of fair play. A little too ambitious perhaps to overcome the opportunistic Italians in the crunch match of the second round; an accusation Santana would have to live with for years to come.
Promising start
The tournament started positively for the Brazilians, who followed up a somewhat laborious 2-1 victory over a stubborn USSR with two sparkling exhibitions against Scotland (4-1) and New Zealand (4-0) in Group 6.
However, the South Americans' effortless qualification was rewarded with a place in Group C, by far the most difficult second-round draw, which saw them matched against arch-rivals Argentina and a typically uncompromising Squadra azzurra. Only the top team in this group of death would qualify for the semi-finals.
The Seleçao made a perfect start to the second round by demolishing Argentina: Zico struck first after just 11 minutes, with further goals from Serginho (66') and Junior (75') putting the contest beyond doubt. A late Ramon Diaz goal would have no impact on the result and, with the Brazilians clearly superior to their continental rivals; a young Diego Maradona lost his composure and was deservedly dismissed for a kick on Batista. "Poor Batista. I really kicked him out of spite," Maradona later admitted in his autobiography.
Italy also defeated Argentina by a more modest 2-1 scoreline, meaning that Brazil needed only a draw in their showdown with the Squadra to advance to the semi-finals. But with just one player plying his trade abroad (Falcao), Brazil were not cut out to play a containing game. And Paolo Rossi and his team-mates didn't allow them to do so. In the 5th minute, Cabrini crossed, Rossi headed and Waldir Peres picked the ball of out his net for the first time. Fans inside the old Sarria Stadium in Barcelona were about to witness a truly memorable clash of cultures.
A throbbing ache for an generation
In the 12th minute Zico lost his marker Claudio Gentile for the first time and fed Socrates who feinted a cross and deceived Dino Zoff with a twisting shot. The scores were level but still few observers favoured the goal-shy Italians. An alert Rossi had other ideas, intercepting an under-weighted pass from Cerezo to Socrates before firing his team back into the lead (25').
Now playing text-book catenaccio football, Italy could allow the Brazilians to come at them and hit on the counter-attack, especially since the 40-year-old Zoff was at the peak of his powers and making some exceptional saves. However, the deadlock was broken in the 68th minute when a Cerezo dummy allowed Falcao to unleash a 20-yard rocket and breath new life into the epic encounter.
Brazil now cast all caution aside and poured forward in waves. A cardinal sin against Italy who won their first corner on 74 minutes: Socrates closed down Tardelli who played a deft ball into the heart of the penalty area where Rossi was waiting to steer the ball past Peres.
That would be the final twist in the plot, leaving Brazil to console themselves with the fact they were beaten by the future world champions. However, Santana has no regrets. "The best Brazilians available were in Spain. If I had to do it all again, I would use exactly the same methods, perhaps refining some points, but remaining faithful to my style and my principles and defending the beautiful game to the death."
Brazil have redeemed themselves since, but Spain 1982 remains a throbbing ache for an entire generation.

The honor required for epics is ridiculously low, 112 points each. If you had even a small amount of honor, a few Stonekeeper's Shards, and perhaps a couple hundred arena points BEFORE the patch, you probably walked away with at least 1000 honor points on Tuesday night. Thats almost 10 epic gems. And let's not forget that you earn honor points from heroic dungeons now as well. A few 5-man random heroics can easily score you enough for another epic.
LOL and people thought the vendor in Stormwind was going away...

Feeding business in the global market
International, professional, specialised, global and innovative; this sums up Alimentaria, one of the most important food and beverage shows in the world.
Alimentaria 2014 launches a new access control system with Anti passback technology, which prevents that an exhibitor pass can be used on more than one occasion to enter in the venue without informing about the departure.
The application of this system forces all companies to personalize the exhibitor passes to avoid any problem on access to venue.
The exhibitor pass is non-transferable and may only be used by the proprietor.

Imagine you've been in a car accident, and you're in the emergency room of Lodi Memorial Hospital. The ER nurses and doctors have stitched up your cuts and treated your bruises. You're in for a few days of monitoring.
Early X-rays showed no signs of breaks, but there's still major pain in your spine and neck from the trauma and painkillers won't touch it. Doctors recommend an MRI scan to check for trauma to the spinal cord or vertebrae and discs.
While other tests call for a nurse to wheel you to another floor of the hospital, getting an MRI scan is much more involved.
At Lodi Memorial Hospital, admitted patients or those in the ER must wait for an ambulance to arrive before being loaded up and transported a few hundred yards to Delta Radiology's Advanced Imaging office across the parking lot.
"Patients in our care need EMTs with them at all times during transport outside the hospital," said Carol Farron, Lodi Health representative. "Based on the patient's insurance, it could be quite expensive."
Magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI scanning, uses a magnetic field and pulses of radio waves to make an image of organs and structures with damage or unusual growths.
The scan lasts up to 20 minutes, then the ambulance brings patients back to the hospital. That's a trip of several thousand dollars for a test so common it's performed nearly 2,500 times a year.
To remove that unnecessary cost, a new room will be built to house the hospital's own MRI machine, Farron said.
Wendell Kiser, a member of the Lodi Planning Commission and the Site Plan and Architectural Review Committee, announced the addition at a planning commission meeting Wednesday night.
"One member of the public did come and speak," said Kiser of the SPARC meeting. "They were concerned about losing the parking spaces on that side."
The addition will be built adjacent to the emergency room for easy access from the ER and the rest of the hospital. The project will take out six physicians' parking spaces along Fairmont, but more than 140 spaces will remain.
Construction costs could run up to $1.25 million, and Farron expects the machine to be up and running by next summer, depending on weather and construction progress.
"Right now we're interviewing contractors," she said. "Construction will begin in January."
That cost doesn't include the MRI machine. Those cost between $1 million and $10 million dollars.
Hospital staff are considering one model with a $1.25 million price tag, but have not yet decided between leasing or purchasing the machine. The expense will come out of the hospital's capital budgets.
Delta Radiology declined to respond to questions on how this project will affect its business.

Book Description:Hailed by the New York Times as "the master of form and sorcerer of style," Reginald Hill is undoubtedly at the top of his form in this gripping story of a mysterious death that echoes one in the past. "Somewhere distantly a church clock began to strike midnight. In the muffling fog, it sounded both familiar and threatening, like the bell on a warning buoy tolled by the ocean's rhythmic swell." Good Morning, Midnight Yorkshire's coppers Andy Dalziel and Peter Pascoe are investigating the suicide of prominent businessman Pal Maciver. It seems to be a clear-cut case: he shot himself while sitting at his desk in his locked study. But things are not quite what they seem. When Pascoe digs deeper, he finds threads going back to another, almost identical death -- that of Maciver's father. And even more disturbing: Pascoe's boss, Detective Superintendent Dalziel, was the officer on that case. With Dalziel checking his every move, Pascoe is forced to lead his own investigation, plunging into the past to uncover truths about the Maciver family, particularly Pal's relationship with his step-mother, the beautiful and enigmatic Kay Kafka. He soon realizes that the implications of Maciver's death stretch far beyond the borders of Yorkshire. And when a key witness -- exotic hooker Dolores, "Lady of Pain" -- disappears, the death takes on a far more complicated and mysterious face.

Posted: 6:08 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 2, 2012
By Randy Tucker
Staff Writer
The steady decline in unemployment over the past year has offered little relief to the tens of thousands of Ohioans suffering spells of prolonged unemployment.
Nationwide, the ranks of the long-term unemployed — defined by the government as those who've been jobless 27 weeks or more — swelled to 5.4 million people in June, representing 42 percent of all jobless workers.
That figure more than doubled the percent of jobless workers classified as long-term unemployed when the recession began in December 2007 — 17.3 percent — and is not expected to change much when the U.S. Labor Department releases its July jobs report today.
Even in Ohio, where the unemployment rate has fallen for 11 consecutive months to 7.2 percent — a full percentage point below the national rate — thousands of unemployed workers sustain painfully long bouts of joblessness, outpacing the national rate by at least one measure.
At the end of the first quarter this year, the average duration unemployment for the approximately 87,000 Ohioans receiving state unemployment insurance benefits was nearly five months, or 18.8 weeks, according to a recent report from the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. By comparison, the average duration of those benefits nationwide was 17.4 weeks.
The state does not track long-term unemployment among all jobless workers. But about 55,000 Ohioans last month filed claims for federal extended benefits, which kick in after their regular 26 weeks of state benefits expire and would qualify as long-term unemployed.
Statistics show a disproportionate share of the long-term unemployed are those 50 and older, many of whom are displaced professionals who often feel discriminated against because of their age, salary requirements and the simple fact that they are jobless — an allegation supported by the growing number of help-wanted ads seeking only candidates who are already working.
"I haven't made it past screening interviews because they didn't like the way I answered the question, "Why have you been unemployed so long," said Chris Vorpe, a Dayton native who has not had a permanent full-time job since she was laid off in 2009 from her job as a quality control inspector at a automotive plant in Brookville.
Since then, the best she has been able to do is string together a series of contract jobs with long lapses of unemployment in between.
Vorpe, who Thursday attended Fairhaven Church's monthly Job Seekers workshop in Centerville, said she had been working for nine months in her last job at a consumer goods company in Cincinnati before she was handed her third layoff notice in the past two years.
"All of a sudden I heard rumblings around the office," Vorpe said, referring to the days leading up to her layoff in June. "It turned out the man I was working for wanted someone with a background in programming. I don't have a programming background… So he just took me off the case, so to speak."
Vorpe, who has degrees in chemistry and biology and decades of experience testing metals and plastics for quality control, said she is frustrated because she is done everything she can to land a job, but outside forces continue to subvert her efforts: "I was let go from the last three positions I had for nothing I had done. It was either because of the economy, or making my department smaller or some other reason."
Bill Even, an economics professor at Miami University, shares the view of many of other economists that the plight of the long-term unemployed is mainly the result of a steadily evolving economy that has created a mismatch between the jobs employers are offering and the skills of the unemployed.
The problem is especially pronounced in Ohio, where the manufacturing industry has made a strong comeback, but thousands of jobs remain unfilled. Last year, as many as 600,000 manufacturing jobs remain vacant across the country due to a shortage of skilled workers capable of handling advance manufacturing processes, according to The Manufacturing Institute, a research group supporting U.S. manufacturers.
"What our economy is going through is a major restructuring," Even said. "And what happens when you get a restructuring of the economy like we're seeing now is the sectors that are shrinking are going to have to shed a lot of workers, which means that the workers whose skills used to be valuable are no longer as valuable."
While the outlook is bleak for many of the long-term unemployed, chronic unemployment carries dark implications for those still working, as well. Fewer workers on payrolls means less demand for goods and services, which is necessary to drive economic growth and sustain the jobs that have been created, Even acknowledged.
Percent of jobless U.S. workers unemployed 27 weeks or longer since the Great Recession:
December 2007: 17.5%
December 2008: 23.2%
December 2009: 39.8%
December 2010: 44.3%
December 2011: 42.5%
June 2012 (most recent figure available): 41.9%

State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co. v. Campbell, 538 U.S. 408 (2003), was a case in which the United States Supreme Court held that the due process clause usually limits punitive damage awards to less than ten times the size of the compensatory damages awarded.
The Court reached this conclusion applying guideposts first noted in BMW of North America, Inc. v. Gore, 517 U.S. 559 (1996), requiring courts to consider:
- the degree of reprehensibility of the defendant's misconduct;
- the disparity between the actual or potential harm suffered by the plaintiff and the punitive damages award; and
- the difference between the punitive damages awarded by the jury and the civil penalties authorized or imposed in comparable cases.
Case History[edit]
The matter involved Curtis Campbell, who was insured by State Farm.
In 1981, Campbell caused an accident in which Todd Ospital was killed and Robert G. Slusher was left permanently disabled, a fact confirmed by both witnesses to the accident and investigators.
Notwithstanding the evidence against Campbell, State Farm decided to contest liability and decline the settlement offers from both Slusher and Ospital's estate (both parties were offering to settle for $25,000 each, or $50,000 total, which was the policy limit). State Farm assured the Campbells that "their assets were safe, that they had no liability for the accident, that [State Farm] would represent their interests, and that they did not need to procure separate counsel."[1]
However, a jury rendered a verdict that Campbell was 100 percent liable for the accident and awarded a judgment of $185,849. State Farm refused to pay the excess amount, nor would it post a supersedeas bond to allow Campbell to appeal the verdict[2]; Campbell obtained his own counsel to appeal the verdict.[3]
Appeals on verdict against Campbell[edit]
While the appeal was pending, in late 1984 the Campbells reached a verdict with Slusher and Ospital's estate, whereby those parties agreed not to seek satisfaction of the judgment against the Campbells, and the Campbells would pursue a bad-faith action against State Farm. The attorneys for Slusher and Ospital's estate would represent the Campbells in the bad-faith suit and would make all major decisions regarding it. No settlement would take effect without the approval of Slusher and Ospital's estate, who would receive 90 percent of any verdict against State Farm.
In 1989 the Utah Supreme Court denied Campbell's appeal. State Farm then paid the entire amount of the judgment including the excess amount. Nevertheless, the Campbells filed suit against State Farm alleging bad faith, fraud, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Campbell's trial v. State Farm[edit]
Initially the trial court granted summary judgment for State Farm as it had paid the entire amount of the judgment, but the ruling was reversed on appeal.
The Utah Supreme Court reinstated a $145 million punitive verdict[4] against State Farm, noting that an earlier $100 million judgment had gone unreported to State Farm's corporate headquarters, and that the regional vice president had no plans to report the judgment under review, despite the judgment being substantially based on evidence of national corporate policy.[5]
Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas adhered to their previously expressed views that the Due Process Clause and Constitution provide no protection against "excessive" punitive damage awards.
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg voted to leave intact the decision of the Utah Supreme Court. She expressed her view that the Supreme Court "has no warrant to reform state law governing awards of punitive damages..." She wrote that punitive damage caps should be set in place by legislatures.

This title deals with the experiences of the American soldiers who fought the Japanese across the Pacific islands, and the specific nature of this combat environment. It follows a hypothetical soldier, 'Michael', through his enlistment into and training with the 165th Infantry Regiment (New York National Guard). It takes him through the 1941 maneuvers the 27th Infantry Division participated in, the transfer to Oahu, and into the reality of daily life and combat in the Pacific theater from 1942 to 1945, including Makin, Saipan and Okinawa. It also looks at the PTO administrative procedures for replacements, and medical and psychiatric care of the ordinary soldier. Whilst the focus is on one individual, the experiences of the many are examined and woven into an intricate and meticulous narrative.

Commission casts ICT in green role
As part of its effort to combat climate change, the European Commission today announced that it would promote the use of ICT (Information and Communications Technologies) to improve energy efficiency throughout the economy, starting with buildings, lighting and the power grid. ICT can enable, across the economy, greener behaviour, which would massively cut Europe's carbon footprint if widely deployed. The Commission will encourage the ICT industry to demonstrate leadership in reducing its own CO2 emissions and by identifying and creating solutions that will benefit the whole economy. For instance the most advanced computer servers consume the same amount of energy as a standard light bulb; if widely used they could offer potential energy savings of up to 70%.

Re: Michael Bourn
I'm not sure why so many think Bourn is good solution to cincy's problems. From what ive read it appears he is looking for around 10 mil a year. Obviously he is an offensive upgrade over stubbs, but is he worth the amount he and Boras are going to ask for? I doubt it.
Bourn is a career .272 hitter. you don't pay .272 hitter 10 mil a year unless he hits 30 bombs, saves a dozen games a year with the glove, or steals like 100 bases.
Wily taveras had a career batting average and obp of .274 and .320
Bourn has a line of .272 and .339.
Taveras career fld% .985
Bourn fld% .992.
Taveras's largest annual salary was 2.25 mil and bourn is asking for 10 mil. based on those numbers bourn looks like he is worth more like 5 or 6 mil. not 10.
If the reds want a cheap solution to their leadoff problems give Hamilton a shot. If he still isn't ready after a month or two you can make an upgrade through a trade that will still be cheaper than the 10 mil bourn will want

Student Achievement Assessment Committee
B.S. & B.A. Economics
Learning outcomes
1. A command of basic characteristics of the American and global economy by using this
knowledge to critically evaluate economic outcomes
2. A command of basic economic theory by using this theory to make predictions and to analyze alternative economic policy options
3.Tthe ability to communicate in both oral and written forms by presenting arguments and evidence clearly and concisely
4. The ability to engage in and understand moral reasoning with respect to economic issues by recognizing the implicit value conflicts present in all economic policy debates
5. The ability to engage in problem solving using basic economic theory;
6. The ability to engage in critical thinking as a part of the analysis of economic problems
Students are required, in these programs, to take two particular courses that we see as fundamental to the degree, Intermediate Microeconomic Theory (ECON 302) and Intermediate Macroeconomic Theory (ECON 303). We base our assessment on these courses with the primary assessment being by the examinations given during the semester. These courses are taken by students other than economics majors and as a consequence, part of our assessment effort is likely to include these non-economics students as part of the process. However, if these students are obtaining the objectives we have set out, there is some reason to think that our students will as well.
In addition, the principles of economics courses, Econ 202 and 203 are a basis for these intermediate courses. Too, they are general education courses and are required of all students in the College of Business Administration. Our assessment takes place for both the intermediate and the principles classes.
To assess the outcomes given above, we have the following process. In the principles classes and the intermediate level classes, we collect from each faculty giving essay tests or tests with essay questions, a copy of the median student in the class on the first test and then follow that student through the semester looking to see if there is growth or if they have developed deeper understandings as the semester passes. We are also looking to see if there is evidence that this student has mastered our learning outcomes to a degree we find satisfactory. These papers are then read by the department Curriculum Committee for consistency with the criteria.
A few years ago, the Department, under the leadership of Dr. Browne, established some general education rubrics for assessment. This effort required faculty to come to some agreement on what we mean by some particular skills. Our experience was that while we agree that students should communicate clearly, we could not identify the traits that mark clear communication, and there was disagreement when we tried to identify the traits in student papers. After some effort, we decided to parse down the list of things we are looking for to a shorter, more manageable list. The table below is driven by our learning outcomes, and we can make the following matches.
Identify tradeoffs | Use chains of deductive reasoning to help understand | Use creative skills to frame question and choose tools | Explain significance of solution | Identify reasons in support of conclude | Make explicit argument and provide evidence | Recognize value tradeoff |
B1 is linked to learning outcomes 2 and 5
B2 is linked to learning outcomes 2 and 5
B3 is linked to learning outcome 5
B4 is linked to learning outcome 3
B5 is linked to learning outcome 4
B6 is linked to learning outcome 6
B7 is linked to learning outcomes 6 and 1
For this year, we have the following results.
At the principles level, the ability to identify tradeoffs was relatively uniform and of satisfactory quality. The ability to use chains of deductive reasoning was also demonstrated. Creative ways to frame questions and choose tools was one of the weaker areas. Students were often directed in particular directions and still did not see the tools to use. Students were able to explain the significance of the problem and the solution. Generally, and in line with the use of deductive reasoning, they did provide reasons for their conclusions. They were making explicit arguments. Perhaps the weakest area was that of values tradeoff. Students could see the tradeoff of the economic issues, but values were not clearly associated with the economic variables.
At the intermediate level, the students are largely students from the College of Business Administration. They are not generally economics majors. The performance by students was somewhat weaker than for the principles level students. However, the strengths and weaknesses were about the same. That is, there was a relative weakness in the areas of using creative skills to frame questions and in value tradeoffs. The other areas were performed at an acceptable level.
Based on these results, it is not clear that some change in curriculum needs to be contemplated. However, we will examine the assessment effort to try to more cleanly break apart the general education assessment from the economics program assessments.

Objective. —To report the distribution of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores by age and educational level.
Design. —National Institute of Mental Health Epidemiologic Catchment Area Program surveys conducted between 1980 and 1984.
Setting. —Community populations in New Haven, Conn; Baltimore, Md; St Louis, Mo; Durham, NC; and Los Angeles, Calif.
Participants. —A total of 18 056 adult participants selected by probability sampling within census tracts and households.
Main Outcome Measures. —Summary scores for the MMSE are given in the form of mean, median, and percentile distributions specific for age and educational level.
Results. —The MMSE scores were related to both age and educational level. There was an inverse relationship between MMSE scores and age, ranging from a median of 29 for those 18 to 24 years of age, to 25 for individuals 80 years of age and older. The median MMSE score was 29 for individuals with at least 9 years of schooling, 26 for those with 5 to 8 years of schooling, and 22 for those with 0 to 4 years of schooling.
Conclusions. —Cognitive performance as measured by the MMSE varies within the population by age and education. The cause of this variation has yet to be determined. Mini-Mental State Examination scores should be used to identify current cognitive difficulties and not to make formal diagnoses. The results presented should prove to be useful to clinicians who wish to compare an individual patient's MMSE scores with a population reference group and to researchers making plans for new studies in which cognitive status is a variable of interest.(JAMA. 1993;269:2386-2391)

Welcome to the 9th edition of European Powers of Construction, our annual publication in which we profile the major listed European construction groups and examine their market position and evolution in terms of revenue, market capitalisation, internasionalisation, diversification and indebtness.
The last few years have been difficult for the construction sector as a consequence of the current economic and financial recession. European governments are implementing deficit-cutting policies and the investment in infrastructure has decreased. ln this context, European construction groups are being forced to redouble their efforts and innovate to generate new business opportunities.
Although internationalisation and diversification continue to play a major role in our EPoC strategies, deleveraging is also a must and divestures in non-core businesses have been frequent. We have included a space in our publication to discuss these issues, in view of the fact that geographical expansion and activities outside the traditional construction model are key to overcoming the aforementioned economic and financial recession.
In this year's edition we have also included a space for analysing EPoC financial performance in 2011 and key figures such as profit margins or leverage ratios. Despite 7.5 % increase in our EPoC aggregated sales, their market capitalisation is 20.6 % below the prior year levels, mainly as a consequence of the worsened economic scenario

Recipe courtesy of Claire Robinson
Recipe courtesy Claire Robinson, 2010
- 5 Ingredient Fix
- 8 cups beef broth
- 4 large beets, peeled and chopped
- 2 large russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 cups thinly sliced cabbage
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Put the broth, beets and potatoes in a large heavy-bottomed pot and bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook until the vegetables are just tender, about 20 minutes. Uncover and stir in the cabbage and red wine vinegar. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper (taste for sodium levels in the broth before salting). Simmer for another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ladle the soup into serving bowls and serve warm. Enjoy!
