By Associated Press, 04/05/02
NEW YORK -- A Roman Catholic priest was turned over to Massachusetts authorities Friday to face charges that he raped a boy more than two decades ago. The Rev. Romano Ferraro, 67, of the Jamaica section of Queens, did not speak during a brief appearance before Criminal Court Judge Robert Raciti. Raciti approved Ferraro's transfer three days after the priest waived his right to fight extradition. Ferraro was charged Monday with rape of a child, and three counts of indecent assault and battery on a child under 14. The incidents allegedly occurred at a Billerica, Mass., residence between 1973 and 1980, when the victim was between 7 and 13 years old. "The only thing we discussed was whether he wanted to go to Massachusetts," said Salvatore Canonico, an attorney for Ferraro. The statute of limitations for the alleged abuse would be 10 years from the time the alleged incident was reported or 10 years since the alleged victim turned 16, both of which would have expired in this case. But prosecutors said the clock on that statute was stopped because Ferraro lived outside Massachusetts. The complaints were initiated last fall before a sexual abuse scandal began roiling the Roman Catholic church in the United States. © Copyright 2002 Boston Globe Electronic Publishing Inc. | Advertise | Contact us | Privacy policy | |

He who thinks local, wins global: Lessons in branding from Down Under
The world's long distance love affair with Australia began well before Fosters unleashed its famous ('He who drinks Australian, thinks Australian') tagline. To date, nearly 5 million non-natives have been lured away from home in search of the elusive Australian Dream. And Aussie brands have become a fixture in shopping malls all over the world.
But what is it that makes Aussie brands so alluring? What lessons can we learn from Down Under?
1. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story
Aussie's are renowned for their infectious optimism. And it shows in their brands.
No matter that 'Australian' beer brand Fosters is brewed closer to Scunthorpe than Sydney. Or that they don't even sell it in most Aussie pubs. Lager lovers across the world continue to 'drink Australian' with pride.
To take another example, Tourism Australia has been successfully cultivating the myth of perpetual sunshine since the dawn of time. But I'll let you into a secret. It rains here. A lot. But no matter. Desirable brands tell great stories, and they stick to them.
2. Flaunt your assets
Quite literally, if you take a page out of Aussiebum's scantily-clad brochure. Conceived on a Sydney beach in 2001, Aussibum is now a multi-million dollar brand flogging budgie smugglers the world over. It's first ever order came from the UK. And today over 90% of its sales come from outside Australia.
Indecent exposure aside, what Aussibum's success really teaches us is that brands shouldn't be afraid to play to their strengths. Australian brands that have gone global have focused on the things they're famous for. Think Australia and you think of sun, sea, sand and sipping beer. Now think about some of its most famous exports – Quiksilver, Ripcurl, Fosters, Seafolly.. you get the picture. When we buy these brands, we're buying into the laid-back Australian lifestyle. And I'm testament to this. Growing up in the land-locked Midlands in the late '90s I certainly wasn't sporting Billabong board-shorts for practical reasons…
3. Turn your weakness into a strength
Surrounded by sea in a far flung corner of the world, you could say Australia is at a natural disadvantage. But undeterred by this setback, Aussies' historical need for self-sufficiency has been turned to the nation's advantage.
Despite the dawn of the global village, the emphasis on keeping it local remains. Especially when it comes to food. Far from having a Hard Rock cafe on every corner, there are almost no chain restaurants here. Starbucks has been shunned. And quirky independents thrive. The fruit and veg in my supermarket is fresh (never frozen), locally sourced, and seasonal. Because Australians were 'doing local' by necessity well before it became fashionable amongst the middle classes. Australian Made is a source of national pride – and a hugely successful brand in itself.
4. Don't take yourself too seriously
Strolling through Sydney's beautiful botanic gardens for the first time I tutted at the prerequisite 'keep off the grass' sign. Until I saw it wasn't. This one instructed me to 'walk on the grass', 'hug the trees' and 'talk to the birds.' This botanic brand disrupts stuffy convention by doing what Aussies do best – keeping it light.
Aussie brands communicate with a characteristically warm and casual tone of voice that makes it almost impossible not to love them. Not a bad strategy when we know brands that connect emotionally with consumers make more money. They're also unashamedly cheeky (a furtive peek at the Aussiebum website will tell you that). They see the lighter side of life and they offer a welcome escape from the drudgery of the everyday. And as I'm sure my fellow expats will agree, that's exactly why we came here in the first place.

Hey, guys, I'm on the radio tonight!
It starts at 7 Eastern, 4 Pacific. Figure out your time zone. :) Also, it's available to listen to later.
I have a new post up, this one about support.
I have a new post up, this one about support.
This would actually be a good one to link for extended family asking about supporting parents of special needs kids like in the recent thread.
Just read and caught up with the fascinating discussion on the complexity of labels and meanings. It is a huge challenge finding a way to describe our kids that doesn't "other" them by assuming a normal or typical as the set point. It's long been a big frustration of mine when describing my 2 kids. One has ASD. The other does not. He's not normal or typical. He's just a kid. She's not abnormal or atypical. She's just a kid who learns and processes differently and because her difference is a minority difference, she's singled out for labels.
Personally, I use NT or neuro-typical or typically developing to describe my kid who isn't on the spectrum. I know that NT is the standard medical terminology used when comparing kids with LDs or who have some kind of spectrum diagnosis with their peers who are developing along standard milestones. Like some others, I do agree to some extent that we need to find common language. But I also think we need to work on finding the right common language. That means sometimes we need to revisit our definitions and assumptions around how we label and who we are labeling. There will be times when the accepted labels no longer fit or are no longer appropriate. I, for one, hope to remain open to those discussions. In a perfect world, my DD wouldn't need a label, but in this one she does and while it marginalizes her, it gets her services she needs to learn and grow.
I wrote a new blog post on Acceptance.
I just wanted to add about ME and my husband, since this is a thread about parents with AS. I don't have AS but I do have severe GAD (anxiety disorder) which is getting worse over the years even with meds. Buh. My husband has AS but has learned to cope very well with social interactions in a workplace setting. He trained as a fine artist but works with computers in educational technology. He's very gifted at problem solving, thinking outside the box and being super-focused on the task at hand. But that doesn't translate to every aspect of his life. Some projects that don't interest him but need doing often get ignored or started and then left. Heh. He doesn't have social relationships outside of work because, as he puts it, "I don't dislike people. I just don't have a use for 90% of them." He's extremely self-directed and I'm extremely not. It's a bit comic.
Wish I had time to read this entire thread through, but don't have time! With trying to get to the bottom of my DS1's (3 years) Aspergers type issues and trying to take care of DS2 (8 months) who has reflux/colic/allergies or whatever they DX a baby with who won't sleep and cries - I barely get time to pee!
I have a half sister with Aspergers and I believe my father was diagnosed as well. Before DS1 was born, I had no idea what Aspergers was - just that it was something that ran in my family and I think I believed it was similar to ADHD. The more I learn about Aspergers, the more I am beginning to believe I might have it. The inability to express my emotions, the overwhelming/confusing feeling of these emotions. some days not being able to make a meal, the scatterbrained attempts at keeping the house clean - the social anxiety, but huge need to be accepted, the need to retreat from sounds, textures, sights that all overwhelm me every day - and yes, Harper Rose the meltdowns.
I'm not too focused on getting a diagnosis since my main concern is getting my DS diagnosed.
Just wondering if anyone thinks that the traits could be learned by our children. Sometimes I wonder if DS is typical, but picking up the thought process from me somehow.
no but yes.
I think that Asperger's is caused by a brain being wired differently, and it really doesn't matter if the child is adopted and raised by others, it just is what it is.
(for the record, I'm a NT bubbly extrovert, but my DH would most likely be dx'd with Asperger's or something similar if he were a child now. I've done 90% of the child rearing because he works long hours and travels with his job, and one of kids is just like him.)
None the less, something I've noticed in other families is that when the parent(s) have social challenges, it makes it even harder for the kids to learn the skills. The kids need to be taught directly and have a great deal of help. It's not that the kids learned it from the parents, but that that parents struggle with the same skills and therefore are limited in their ability to help the kids.
Not specific to ASD, but along the lines of learned versus genetic behavior, organizational skills are hard for parents with ADHD, and in some ways with NVLD or spectrum disorders to teach to kids. DH has severe attentional problems and I have the typical NVLD problem of hyper focusing and not switching attention easily (pretty common with ASD, too) as well as some weird ways of physically organizing stuff (it's organized but not good decorating, rooms that have to look good can't be rooms I do work in). Anyway, my very NT daughter is way more organized than the rest of us but still has stacked groupings of items like I do and dislikes environments where people are doing lots of things at once. She's just accustomed to how we do things in our home. The difference is that she can do things the "typical" way but my ASD son can't despite lots of professional help.
Thanks for the thoughts - totally understand about organizational skills. For one, I think DS would be much better off if I could just figure out what I'm doing every day. I also tend to hyper focus and lose sight of the point of things. I have areas in my house that are either extremely, abnormally organized or totally a mess. I feel he doesn't know what to expect, because I'm not consistent.
He thinks like me, but he behaves more like my Aspie sister (who he has only met once).I'm more introverted, although I do have a need for attention. My sister and DS are so extroverted that people kind of are scared off by them. And the fact that I'm introverted doesn't help him with social skills at all. I would rather have him learn to meet his own need for attention than to teach him how to get the kind of attention he needs from others.
I'm also a very quiet person, with sensitive hearing, but DS enjoys making loud noises all day long even though I know he also has sensitive hearing. I guess we just react to the overstimulation in different ways.
Wow, Thing1Thing2 I could have written that entire post myself! It's nice to know there are others like me!!!
LolLol! You're right - that sounds so confusing - and hilarious!
Let me put it this way instead. If I need attention, or feel neglected there are things I can do to substitute. I can pamper myself or read self help books. I can write in my journal or I can cook a wonderful meal. All of these things are enrichments to my life. I feel these are all healthy ways to give myself the attention I need.
Not to say that I have a lack of a social life. I do have many people who care about me and who I can talk with, but sometimes it's too much work for me to follow all the social rules and regiments. It does meet some of my social needs, but mostly it drains me.
My DS on the other hand, when he needs attention, he just goes *barreling* into whoever he can. Making loud noises and getting in personal space, among other things. And having no sense at all that he the other child is frustrated with him.

LH is Correct.
1. Connect a LAN cable to the wireless router.
2. Type in http://192.168.1.1 OR your modified address to get into the router.
3. On the Wireless Tab screen menu, Disable wireless mode and click save.
4. A screen will come up with a confirmation message and then revert back to configuration mode.
5. Go into the computer Network Connections and Disable the Wireless Adapter.
6. Go into the computer Services and Disable Wlan Auto Configuration Service.
7. Reboot the machine and check the logs.
8. Their may be more Auto Tasks which need Disabling according to the O/S one is running.
This takes care of both the Router and the Machine Wireless Adapter.
Rick P.
GOOD idea !!!!
I use to run my wireless systems wide open without any protection what so ever when I was the only one in town that used wireless.
Now, everyone has wireless networking so I just use Hard Wired LANs myself now.
I can even piggy back on others wireless networks if I wanted to but I play by the rules. (LOL)

A New Jersey beauty queen wants to get with Snooki and The Situation -- not the way you're thinking -- as a new roommate for Season 3 of "Jersey Shore."
TMZ has learned Margaret Skourlis -- the current Ms. NJ United States (yes, that's a real pageant) -- auditioned for the show last week.
Margaret -- who's not Italian, but Greek-American -- tells TMZ she thinks she'd get along with Snooki, and claims she can handle the "JS" crew after surviving beauty pageants ... "We're not as evil to each other but we're just as snippy in other
Margaret's best credential: She told us pageants and "Jersey Shore" both "excenturate things." Your guess is as good as ours.
We're told no final decisions have been made on casting yet.
TV Execs love to glorify "stupid" at the expense of very stupid people. It should be a crime, they should be told they are being exploited for their novelty and ignorance. I remember staying as far away from these types growing up in NY as we could. They were cheap and loud, got married young, and raised their kids the same way. Now the ones we wouldn't be caught dead with, who live among their own as happy idiots, are ubiquitous, have their own TV shows. Unbelievable.
Excuse me, "spelling not her forte"? Somehow I doubt that was a spelling error- more like an English language error. Surprise!
Firefly said it best. Dumbing down of America at its finest! None of these people on this show are anything special to look at and they give the state and Italian and now Greek americans, a bad name. They need to go away, please, oh please, writers and producers of America..bring back decent television! Get this crap off the air!
I dont understand why people are harping on a beauty woman from new jersey. If selected, she will make New Jersey proud in Las Vegas for Ms. United States 2010. In addition, she will make Jersey Shore even more of a hit because Greeks love to party hard. No doubt about it. Go Ms. New Jersey 2010, the next Ms. United States 2010.
beauty queens in Joisey are fugly....I mean when you said Beauty Queen I expected a tiny bit of beauty (it is Jersey you know), but this....yyeecchh!
Great News All The Time I found this try this also
I am so happy for Margaret, Greek-Americans need to be more televised, hopefully, she will be taped in Astoria as well where all the Greek parties are at. I hope she becomes Ms. United States 2011. We need a Greek-American that is famous! Maybe she will run for President of the United States one day and support the Greeks, if she runs for President I am voting for her! She is gorgeous and the sweetest girl I have ever met, if anyone deserves to be famous it is her.
I heard she makes appearances at bolwing alleys across NJ in her crown and sash. Sooo sad!
You have to see the girls in this pageant. I've seen better faces on clocks.
It gets worse!
She paid $1950.00 for the crown and banner. See below:

So it's a Volvo, then.
May 17, 2009
Twenty-something interested in buying first serious car...a Volvo maybe!
Asking this anonymously as I don't want my partner to associate the surprise with me...
It looks like I'll be getting my first proper job in a few months, and will then be in a position to replace my current car, up to now a basically reliable but not ideal motor, with a modern car that will last a while and hopefully provide enhanced safety, security, comfort and enjoyment!
I'm looking at a Volvo (live in Scandinavia and like the ride and reputation), and in particular a V50. But then I hear round and about that this isn't a 'true Volvo'. Something about a Ford chassis. But what does this mean in real terms? What does it lack that a true Volvo has? Is a V70 a true Volvo, or is that also built on a Ford chassis?! Was the last true Volvo the 240?
What are the cars strengths, weaknesses?
But can anyone come in and comment on what size engine is needed to make this purchase a keeper (I've heard tell at 1.6l it's an underpowered car), about whether they're reliable and offer the benefits the Volvo name suggests they should...
and whether I should buy NEW or a 2007 model. I imagine new would mean quite a bit bigger monthly payments but is it maybe worth it in terms of an investment, I would KNOW the car's history. When it comes to financing, can anyone advise on whether should I should make a big effort to make as big a down payment as possible...what max percentage of net monthly income I should be prepared to pay on a car etc.
Also just for fun: what options should I get! After all, this is meant to be fun, right?

From a purely economic standpoint, I believe conventional wisdom is that a car loses half its value when it leaves the forecourt. So buying new would probably not be a good move. A "one careful lady owner" low mileage old model might be good, or an ex-demonstrator, as it will have had the benefit of excellent official servicing and parts.
I can't speak for Volvos specifically - parts will be relatively easy to acquire and cheap as you're in Scandinavia. I know older Volvos had reputations of being built very well, and made to last, but that's just a general impression of the marque more than being based on anything factual.
Also, what do you use the car for? Are you quite rural with long drives, where you'd want reliability and comfort, or urban where being small, good around town etc. are more important considerations? Do you need to tow, or transport large items, etc. etc.? (email one of the mods to answer those questions as anonymous).

Ignoring all of your questions up until you ask about options and want a car that is fun (I'm not actually ignoring them...) Do not get a Volvo. Volvo cars are great, semi reliable, expensive to get fixed; buy one new and keep it for years - great if you can afford it, but don't buy a used one unless it's a demo model that has done 8,000 miles in two years in a dealer's forecourt. Fun and cheap is something like a Mazda MX5. Now, that is fun. This, of course, is just my opinion, but I cannot see why any young person would be able to invest in a dull car like a volve (when one of the conditions is that they want to have fun) just because they are living in Scandanavia. (Try to find a 70s convertible Saab - Jeeeeez!)

One of the reasons a young person would buy a Volvo because they live in Scandinavia is because they want the car to start in the morning, to handle well on icy roads, to save their asses when they hit a moose, to cart shitloads of stuff from IKEA, cheap as (rather expensive) chips to get parts for and repair.
We have a v50, we love it. It's sporty enough (for an estate) if you get one with a decent sized motor and/or turbo. We have an... ummm... 2.4T? Is that an engine size? It's light blue.
Do buy second hand, a two year old model is half to third of the price and has about another 18 years on it. Don't forget to budget for winter tyres. Find a local place that stores, rotates, and switches your tyres, it's about 400 kr, twice a year, very worth it if you are in a flat.

Oh, and re. costs, we pay about 2000kr a month I would say for all the car stuff other than petrol and our parking space.

OK, that's a good answer. I guess there is a different car culture here and a lot less IKEAs and Moose.

In the US at least, a "true" Volvo's model name begins with a digit and a Ford-Volvo's begins with a letter, so a 740 or an 850 is a "true" Volvo.

I have a V70 Turbo wagon, and it's a great car. A Volvo purist will tell you it doesn't handle like a true, non-Ford Volvo, but to me, it feels the same as my first car, which was an 850 Turbo. In the US, maintenance is rather expensive, but the car is very reliable. I bought a 2004 in 2006, and I'm glad I didn't go for the brand new car. As for fun stuff, leather seats are nice. I also paid extra for the wood kit, which put faux-wood accents all over the car. I like it, you may think faux-wood is cheesy. And definitely go for the Turbo, no matter which model you choose. My car is very fast for a big wagon.

Volvo's reputation as a reliable, tough-as-nails cold-starting car is based off their 240 and 740 lines, which were simple as hell and built like tanks. After the 740, Volvo started getting it into their heads that they were making luxury cars and as a result the cars lost not only their toughness but also their soul. Try looking at an S80 and see if you can see the same spirited design a 245 wagon had- it's just not there. Their new cars are based on Ford platforms and don't really have any safety/reliability advantage over their Ford platform-mates.
For reference:
Volvo V70=Ford 500/Ford Taurus
Volvo V50=Mazda3/Mazda6/2010 Ford Focus
If you're looking to buy a real Volvo, get a 240 or a 740. Sadly, that's not going to be a very new car anymore. Regardless, no matter what you do, don't buy brand-new- as has been mentioned previously cars lose a lot of value as soon as you drive them off the lot.

I've been very happy with my V40. Stingy with gas. Not many mechanical problems, holds up like a champ when the tractor trailers blow by me at eighty miles an hour on the freeway. Great safety features. Much more solid and easy to steer than my previous Toyota.

When it comes to financing, can anyone advise on whether should I should make a big effort to make as big a down payment as possible...what max percentage of net monthly income I should be prepared to pay on a car etc.
A car is not something you should usually finance. Save your "monthly payment" into a special interest bearing savings account until you can afford to buy it outright.
When you buy something with a combination of your own money and debt, you're "levering up" and amplifying your returns (or losses, in the case of a car). This is well enough when you're buying a house and its value will (tend to) go up. But a car's value will absolutely go down, and a new car will lose something like 20-30% of its value right off the lot.
So if you pay half up front, and you take out a loan to pay the rest with debt (so 1/2 your money), you're doubling your losses. The car loses 30% of its value when you drive it off the lot, but you lose
of your money. (Example: $30,000 car and you pay $15,000 up front. You drive it off the lot and it's worth $20,000 -- it lost one third of its value. Now if you have to sell it you get $20,000 for it and pay off the remaining $15,000 loan, leaving you with $5,000, meaning you lost two thirds of your original $15,000.)
If you do pay off all the loan, then there was no harm done except for any interest payments. So if you can get a 0% APR loan and are absolutely positive you will keep your job and can keep the car until you pay off your loan, then financing isn't a bad idea. Otherwise, save until you can afford to buy the car.

1. Volvos are not fun. Safe, but not fun.
2. The One True Volvo is the 240. And the 780. And the P1800.
3. You shouldn't pay more than the equivalent of about USD$500 for a 240. You shouldn't buy a 780 or a P1800.

We have an older V70 - a 2001 purchased used and love it all around. Pros: Surprisingly good pickup when you hit the gas even though it's just the stock model, very smooth ride, easy to pack full of stuff. It's never had a problem starting in Chicago winters, gets good traction in snow assuming you keep the tires relatively new, and has had few mechanical problems. It's a pleasure to drive.
We also had a tire disintegrate after hitting a massive pothole at 75 mph (not the fault of the car). It was great to have such a heavy, low car - we spun around in a full circle at 60 mph on the highway with the car fully loaded. We absolutely would have flipped and rolled in an SUV.
I would buy another V70 in a heartbeat.

My father had a sky blue '80 Bertone Coupe (awesome); mom's first "new" car was a red '76 240; my first college car was a white '76 240; my last 850 had 250K miles on it. Now Mrs. Webhund and I have an '07 XC70 that we picked up at the factory in Goteborg (awesome experience) and already has 62K on it. In the midst of negotiating an '09 XC70 (desperate U.S. dealers = bargain).
Oh, my answer: Register and post your question at

carsurvey.org is your friend (and I assume there are similar sites out there). I've also been intrigued by various Volvos a couple-few years old, but I am more than a little wary of a lot of stories regarding reliability. That aside, 1.6 sounds small and weak for that car; is it a turbo?
I live in a country where they sell cars a spec.-level lower than what one finds in the USA; things like the basic Subaru hatchback with a whopping 105-hp (aka "not many") engine. I'm not looking to play Captain Go Fast behind the wheel, but I have rented a similar car with a similar engine and it is pathetic, really tiresome for basic things like merging, going up hills, having to jump a little quick into a slot when traffic leaves no alternative.
If you go for a Volvo or not, give 'er a thorough test drive to include merging or simulations, gassing it a decent bit and see if you deem it adequate or better. having a gutless car gets tiresome.

I was considering purchasing a V50 this year, and after doing my rounds at the Volvo showroom and its competitors, what impressed me about the V50 were its multitude of safety features as well as its surprisingly good fuel efficiency (on paper) compared to other cars of its class.
I also found the car's interior classy and elegant. However, I found the car's pickup to be kinda sluggish, when moving off from a stationary position.

Some Follow Up Questions:
1) Does anyone have experience using a > symbol to start their meta description? Or maybe two of them like > > so as to draw attention to it?
2) Is having a "you focus" description better than a "me focus" description? For instance, is it better to say, "You will find a lovely widget that you will cherish forever..." than it is to say, "Our widgets are more lovely than our competitors..."
3) Can Unicode symbols be displayed in the snippets if I use them in the meta descriptions? For instance, you can make a pointing hand symbol using decimal character 9755 (hex character 261b). Would the SERPS display it as such? And how in the world do I display it? (Do I use an ampersand in front and a semi colon in the back of the number 9755)?
sorry if these are crazy questions. I'm just trying to think outside of the box, as they say...

Diversity: About 35 percent are Greek affiliated. It is about 85 percent white.
Campus Housing: I live in the best location - the Quad. I am right in the middle of campus and close to my classes.
Off-Campus Dining: A wide variety of restaurants are located within a short walking distance.
Off-Campus Housing: There are so many off-campus options to choose from at Auburn. Not only are the majority of these places very nice but they are also cheap to live if you consider all the amenities you get.
Off-Campus Housing: The prices are pretty reasonable, but you get what you pay for. There are many nice options for housing, but they are also very expensive. There are some really nice options that are more affordable, but they aren't as nice as other places, and can be far from campus.
Campus Strictness: I think the university is fair with their strictness. They are ultimately looking out for the well-being of the student while also upholding the standards of the university.
Transportation: There is a transit that goes off campus to individual apartment complexes, and a shuttle that runs at night that will pick you up almost anywhere, even slightly off campus to reduce the urge to drive drunk.
Guys & Girls: Good Variety of guys and girls. Everyone is friendly and helpful.
Parking: Parking lots are always full but ample temporary parking space is available for no fee
Health & Safety: Personally, I feel safe when I walk around the Auburn campus. I am realistic and know that things can and do happen, but I have never had any issues that would cause me immediate concern.
Campus Strictness: The students are in compliance and are dealt with swiftly and with fairness in situations dealing with non-compliance.
Majors: They have almost every major you can think of except biomedical engineering which seems to be a popular pre med major.
Campus Dining: Chick-fil-a??? Check. Starbucks? Check. I love the dining experience at AU
Computers: College campuses that have diversity in computers (Apple and PC) deserve an award.
Majors: I am expecting to enjoy my program at Auburn quite well when it beings.
Majors: Relatively easy to get into the Political Science program. No extra effort other than simply submitting an application
Majors: I have never held an internship. But I plan to have one next summer in a shadowing position or at a hospital of some sort.
Facilities: It's a big university in the middle of a small town with lots of agricultural roots
Academics: Very rigid program that does not allow you to graduate early, but it prepares you well for the classroom
Academics: Wide variety of courses offered and passionate professors
Drug Safety: I have never really seen a lot of drug usage at Auburn. The exception being a couple of guys using ADHD medication around finals week to help them stay awake. Alcohol is definitely more prevalent, especially football game days. A lot of students drink openly on those weekends.
Campus Strictness: Teachers and faculty are pretty lenient when it comes to almost all aspects of campus life. I don't live on campus, so I really can't comment on dorm life, but being on campus in general, I have never had any problems. As for academically, the teachers sound really strict at the beginning of the semester in their syllabus, but they are never as strict as they sound. I think a lot of this has to do with the students. I've never seen students really act out or cause a lot of problems, so there's no need for stringency.
Parking: Parking on campus can definitely be challenging. A permit runs about $60, but most of the time you have to park so far away that you have to ride a bus from the lot to campus. This usually isn't a big deal because the bus ride is fairly short, but when you are running late, that extra time can be costly. With that being said, I live off campus and there is transit that goes by my area, making it really easy to get to school without driving there.
Academics: I'm not as up-to-date about the main campus academics at Auburn University, but from what I've heard, it's a really great institution. At the College of Veterinary Medicine, the academics are amazing. At the end of next year, the CVM will be the most technologically advanced CVM in the nation. In 2007, we got a brand new large animal hospital; in 2011, we got updated classrooms that allow us to get absorb all the information we possibly can; and by the end of 2014, we will have a brand new small animal hospital. My clinical years will be amazing, just as my first year was.
Diversity: It's the south. There's not much more to say. I have a class of 120 and all but 5 are white/caucasian. 94 are women and 26 are men.

Overall, students are very happy to be in Auburn. They love the people around them and the experiences that they get to have.
College is what you make of it. If you sit at home and don't do anything, then you won't enjoy yourself no matter where you go. With all the options you have offered to you at Auburn, you have to try to not have a good time. And with a student body that is so happy to be here, it's also hard not to get swept up in the excitement. As always, it's a good idea to visit a college or university before making a final decision. Make sure you're as happy and comfortable as you can possibly be.

Best Al Pastor in the SD??
I finally got the chance to try El Cuervo. Great TJ-style al pastor mini tacos. The carne asada was horrible though -- gristley, hard, bad flavor. I'll definitely be back for the mini tacos though.
re: mangiatore
I agree with that the carne asada is bad in the mini-tacos at El Cuervo but for some reason it is super delicious in their carne chips & carne burritos. And I have taste tested the later two items quite often as that is what the bf buys while I get the mini tacos. Also, I recently tried the chicken adobado (in mini tacos & in burritos) which is quite good as well.

Former Committees & Taskforces
Examples of copyrighted works:
TEMPLATE – March 16, 2005
I. Statement of Values: The (University name) recognizes and respects intellectual property rights. As part of our mission to maintain the highest standards for ethical conduct, we are committed to fulfilling our moral and legal obligations with respect to the use of copyright-protected works. We are equally committed to the proper fair use of copyright-protected works, balancing the interests of ownership and access.
Background Information on
A. The Original Law
Article I of the U.S. Constitution
authorizes Congress to pass legislation "to promote the Progress of Science and
useful Arts by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the
exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries." On the basis of
the Constitution, Congress enacted the
1. reproduce or copy the work
2. prepare derivative works based on the original work
3. distribute copies of the work for sale, rental or lease
4. perform or display the work publicly
5. perform sound recordings via a digital audio transmission
Copyright laws in the U.S. protect works even if they are not registered with the U.S. Copyright Office and even if they do not carry the copyright symbol (©). Copyrighted works may be in print, video, electronic or digital form and include, but are not limited to, books, magazines, newspapers, cartoons, trade journals, training materials, newsletters, printed articles from publications, TV and radio programs, videotapes, compact discs, DVD's, music performances, photographs, training materials, manuals, documentation, software programs, databases and World Wide Web pages. To be eligible for copyright protection, a work must be original and fixed in any tangible medium, including electronic and digital, and be one of the following eight categories of works:
1. literary works, including computer software
2. musical works, including any accompanying words
3. dramatic works, including any accompanying music
4. pantomimes and choreographic works
5. pictorial, graphic and sculptural works
6. motion pictures and other audiovisual works
7. sound recordings
8. architectural works
B. Fair Use
Using a work copyrighted by someone else requires the copyright owner's permission or the use must fall into one of the exceptions to the copyright owner's exclusive rights. In using works of others for educational purposes, the most commonly relied upon exception is "fair use." The fair use exception (17 U.S.C. 107) is a four-factor test that balances the rights of copyright owners in their creations against the public interest in the free exchange of ideas. The four factors are:
1. The character of the use. For example, nonprofit, personal or educational use are generally factors in favor of fair use, particularly if the use is for such things as criticism, commentary, news reporting, parody, or some other "transformative" use. However, any commercial use would usually favor requiring permission from the copyright owner.
2. The nature of the work to be used. Facts and published works tend to again weigh in favor of fair use. Imaginative and unpublished works are more likely to require permission to use.
3. How much of the work is used. This factor also requires some judgment. For example, a nonprofit educational institution copying of an entire article from a journal for students in a class would lean towards fair use; but a commercial copy shop would tip the balance towards obtaining permission for the same copying. Similarly, commercial publishers often have stringent limitations on the length of quotations, while a student writing a paper for a class assignment could reasonably expect to include lengthier quotes.
4. The effect of the use on the market for the work. This really asks the question: "If the use was widespread, and the use was not fair, would the copyright owner be losing money?" In essence, could the use avoid the payment of royalties in an established permissions market?
Use of a copyrighted work need not satisfy all four factors to qualify as fair use; rather, the factors favoring fair use must outweigh the factors favoring obtaining permission.
C. Distance Education
The Technology, Education and Copyright Harmonization (TEACH) Act of 2002 amended section 110 of the copyright law. It allows displays and performances of copyrighted works to be transmitted (distance education) and used for instructional purposes, without permission of the copyright holder, if numerous conditions are met.
III. Ownership of Employee-Created Instructional Materials
Under the UW System Policy on Ownership of Copyrightable Instructional Materials, http://www.uwsa.edu/fadmin/gapp/gapp27.htm (GAPP 27), the faculty member usually owns all rights in his or her creations. For instance, a professor who creates a scholarly article in the course of research at a UW System institution, would ordinarily own the copyright in it. The institution may have an interest, however, if it contributed substantial institutional resources in the creation of the work. "Substantial" resources could include providing the creator with paid release time from his or her job, or allowing the employee exceptional access to specialized computer resources to create the work. In practice, when an author uses institutional resources to create a protected work, it is best to agree with the institution beforehand about ownership and control of the work. GAPP 27 includes a sample agreement to allocate rights and interests in copyrighted works between the institution and the employee author.
IV. University Obligations Regarding Copyright: (University name) sets forth these procedures for all faculty, staff and students to demonstrate our respect for intellectual property and commitment to proper fair use:
A. The utilization of copyrighted work either must have the permission of the copyright owner, either directly or through a representative or meet the fair use exception or another recognized exception to the exclusive rights of the copyright owner.
B. Faculty, staff and students must obtain permission from copyright holders directly, or their licensing representative, if the use does not fit within a recognized exception to the copyright owner's exclusive rights. An appendix to the UW System Policy on Ownership of Copyrightable Instructional Materials (GAPP 27) includes a sample letter (http://www.uwsa.edu/fadmin/gapp/gp27at_c.htm) requesting permission to use copyrighted materials. Alternatively, permission may be obtained from centralized clearinghouses for the use of various kinds of works:
· Books or
· Musical works: ASCAP, BMI or SESAC
· Motion Pictures: the Motion Picture Licensing Corporation
C. (University copyright officer name and title), is designated as the copyright officer to administer the campus copyright procedures. The copyright officer can help handle any special copyright issues, including questions regarding fair use. You also may consult the UW System Office of General Counsel or your campus legal counsel.
D. Faculty, staff and students are encouraged to educate their peers on copyright compliance and fair use. Faculty, staff or students who illegally duplicate copyrighted works may be subject to disciplinary, criminal and/or civil action.

Last week I arranged for myukdelivery to pick up an item from an ebay seller in Birmingham and deliver to Bedford. This was scheduled for a Thursday morning. The seller waited in. The pickup didn't happen. Despite phone calls and emails from me over the last 7 days, I have not been able to get the company to respond. Its always 'I'll get my supervisor to call you'. I have been advised by Trading Standards that they are in Breach of Contract and I have asked for a refund. I can't recommend this company to anyone based on this (lack of) service.
Update: Interesting that the company has responded within 20 minutes of my post whilst completely ignoring my calls and emails for a whole week. They need to explain (1) why the original pickup which was scheduled by them for a workday morning (in fact I told them that any time that day up to 2pm was OK) didn't happen. (2) Why they did not respond to me at all when I tried to schedule a new pickup - Both myself and the pickupee were aware that this would be morning or afternoon ie working hours. I stand by my original comments.

The service is great. The employees were very friendly.
Although this is a great place to go and relax it is not a great place to go if you want to spend a lot of time in town. Since town is about 15 minutes away, it will cost approximately $22 round trip to go there. I recommend taking a tour with someone who knows the town so that you can see the sights. Also, be sure and agree upon a price before you get into the cab because their cabs do not have meters- they charge what they want.
The food at the resort is fairly expensive and unless you get a one- or two-bedroom unit, you will not have an icebox or stove. However, there is a small grocery store down the street to which you can catch a free ride, but you will need an ice chest to keep anything fresh.
If you do not own a timeshare with Mayan Palace, they will try everything to get you to buy one by the time you leave and the salesmen don't give up easily, so be prepared.

This resort boasts a VERY long pool that circles parts of the resort--the Mayan Palace claims this is the longest pool in the world, or something like that. The resort is located right on the beach, where lounge chairs and cabana boys are provided for your convenience. All in all, this resort is top notch, but you can save some money by eating elsewhere (taxis into town are cheap).

I am using the Static HTML: iFrame Tabs app to use to design landing pages for several businesses. I have designed the landing page in html and it works when I click view as fan and view as non-fan. I have selected to display the same HTML for both fans and non-fans.
Accordingly, I selected the option to set my landing page. As a non-fan I see this tab as my landing page. When a fan comes to the facebook page they are forwarded to my wall.
I remember researching this awhile back and it seemed it was a bug that facebook had yet to address. I recently ran into a business page that worked as a fan and non-fan. How is this done?

Christmas week ice storm knocked out holiday sales for Michigan retailers
A new report shows the major winter storm that knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of Michiganders last month also hurt late Christmas sales.
About a half million Michiganders spent part of Christmas week in the dark after an ice storm cut a swath through the state.
Tom Scott is with the Michigan Retailers Association. He says the Dec. 22 storm robbed many stores of last-minute Christmas shoppers.
"To have power outages all over the state, we had stores closed, people without any electricity in their homes, we had snow and cold weather everywhere – that was pretty dismal," says Scott.
Scott says Michigan retailers report only a .1% increase in Christmas sales this year, well below the 1.3% forecast.
The latest Michigan Retail Index showed 38% of retailers increased sales during the holiday season and 41% experienced declines. 21% reported flat sales.

All the players are detectives. Everyone has orders to track down and arrest wanted criminals. However, the crooks are invisible. But with the help of the Electronics Crime Scanner, they can find their respective traces, so the crooks can be chased and caught. With the Electronics Crime Scanner, the detectives eavesdrop on the crooks. They hear the noise of a creaking floor or a rattling window, a police siren or running footsteps, etc. There's a reward offered on all burglars -- collect enough reward money, and you win the game!
This game has everything--sounds of windows breaking, police sirens, doors opening etc. My copy of this game broke around 1983 and I have been looking for it since. I am excited to see that it is still around!
You control one of eight possible detectives (4 male and 4 female) and try to track a thief who is committing crimes in 4 buildings and the streets surrounding them. The computerized scanner keeps track of the thief's whereabouts while players use a combination of cards, the scanner, and deductive reasoning to track the thief down. But, be careful. You may get the thief tracked down and try to arrest him just to have him run away from you. Different thiefs (chosen at random) have different monetary reward amounts for their capture. You win when you are the first to reach $2500. Players can steal money from each other, too.

Trade a Slowpoke to another player. This will not work when you're using an emulator on phone, since trading is impossible, as far as I know.

I also fished with a returning military hero from Iraq and NAFC member "Chinook" His sockeye was a little more silver!! Fish ON!The Salmon Slayer

Though Nike Nando's been going through some changes lately—his last feature, The Fall of the Delorean, announced the dissolution of his DMG collective—the Maryland rhymesayer's mission remains the same: to conquer the rap game while repping the 301 to the fullest extent possible. Making its world premiere right here in the Booth, the artist's latest single finds him pursuing those goals with fierce determination. As Nike lets the world know he's "comin' for the top," at dangerously high speeds, beatsmith Baze underscores the urgency of his bars with a sped-up sampling of Clash classic London Calling. Like what you're hearing? You'll be able to find this ambitious cut and plenty more where it came from on SprdLv, scheduled for release in March of next year.
