Will The Shortage of Available African American Men Force African American Women To Marry Men Of Oth
by Host Naimah Latif in Women
Tags: Mayor Richard Daley Dr Adele Joy Cobbs interracial dating African American woman widower
What used to be undercover is now out in the open - men of other ethnic groups desire black women. Is the idea of marrying only within one's "race" obsolete? If so, with the shortage of available African American men, will African American women be forced to broaden their choices? With high profile men such as the former Mayor Richard M. Daley dating a younger, attractive African American woman, Dr. Adele Cobbs, perhaps other women will consider other options. How will African American men respond if particularly the successful African American women no longer seek them out as potential mates? What social impact could this have? Is this a step toward progress and a less "racially divided" society?

Rethinking African American Parenting as a Civil Right
by NCEBC Talk Radio in Education
Tags: NCEBCTalkRadio Sharon Washington Adelaide Sanford Parenting Civil Right
This week's "Gift from the Elders to the Next Generation" series, is hosted by NCEBC Queen Mother, Dr. Adelaide Sanford and will feature a lively and parent-empowering conversation with Dr. Sharon Washington.
All NCEBC Stakeholders should please plan to join us for this live discussion.
Dr. Sharon Washington is an education anthropologist and the founder of Anthropologi Educational Research and Development, an international firm created to bring "education" back to schools. She is also the author of The Educational Contract, which tackles the difficult job of explaining why so many African American students do so poorly in school by peeling back the layers of why their parents let them, and explaining how the 1954 US Supreme Court case Brown, which was intended to bring equality to education, actually has contributed to the phenomenon. The Educational Contract calls for a deep spiritual work in our public educational system and calls for parents to lead that movement—a movement in the practice of freedom and participation in the transformation of our world.

Staying in your Green Zone
What is my 'green zone'?
You're in your green zone when you have a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) below .05, the average person is in their green zone when having about 2-3 drinks over about 1-2 hours. To find out your personal BAC and how many drinks over how much time will allow you to keep your BAC in the green zone, check out BloodAlcoholCalculator.org^ or download the Blood Alcohol Concentration Calculator to your iPhone^. For more information on the green zone and an explanation of the graph below, please check out the bi-phasic effects of alcohol.
What are the advantages to staying in my green zone?
Staying in your green zone is referred to as lower-risk drinking, meaning you are less likely to experience the possible negative consequences of alcohol. Keeping your BAC around a .05 allows you to experience the enjoyable effects of alcohol, such as having slightly more energy, a warm feeling, and that 'good buzz'; a BAC of about a .05 also allows you to avoid many of the negative consequences such as hangovers, vomiting, memory loss, passing out, blackouts, alcohol poisoning, etc. Keep in mind that at a BAC of a .05 you will lose some motor control and you are NOT in a condition to drive. An additional benefit of staying in your green zone is that you don't spend nearly as much money!
How do I stay in my green zone?
Once you determine how to reach a BAC of about a .05, you can maintain those desired effects by having one drink an hour. The nice part of this is that you don't have to 'nurse' a drink all night or abstain from drinking; you still get to have several drinks while avoiding many of the unwanted consequences!
Green means go, so I just keep going, right?
In this case, green doesn't mean keep going, it means you're in a safer BAC range and you're less likely to have those negative consequences-it's not a stoplight color-scheme, so it's not a good idea to just drink and drink.
What happens if I pass my green zone?
The higher your BAC, the more severe the negative consequences, such as loss of coordination and motor control, memory loss, impaired judgement, blackouts, vomiting, alcohol poisoning, etc. To see a detailed chart that matches up your BAC to symptoms and to learn some facts about tolerance, click here.
*Please note: OPEN is in no way encouraging or giving you permission to drink, especially if you are under 21 years old. However, if you make the decision to drink, we want to provide you with as much information as possible so you can make informed and healthy decisions.
^Please note: There is no BAC calculator that is 100% accurate because of the number of factors that affect consumption and reduction (burnoff) rates of different people. These factors include amount of food in the stomach when drinking, medications or drugs that may be in the system, metabolism rates, etc. The best that can be done is a rough estimate of BAC based on the information provided. OPEN provides this link for your information and for the benefit of the Northeastern community. OPEN does not testify to, sponsor, or endorse the accuracy of the information provided on any externally linked page

I like the helmet overall. The fit was good and the outside finish was bright and well polished. The only problem I have is it was advertised as the shell being thinner then most helmets, because of the type of foam used. It was thinner on the sides. But, still was just as thick as any other helmet in the top. This made the helmet set high on your head.

Documents filed in the case are presented in chronological order beginning with the opinion of the Third Circuit.
Third Circuit Court of Appeals:
Summary of Third Circuit's opinion (533 F.3d 218 (C.A.3 (Pa.),2008)
The Third Circuit held that 18 U.S.C. § 48, the federal law that criminalizes depictions of animal cruelty, is an unconstitutional infringement on free speech rights guaranteed by the First Amendment. The defendant in this case was convicted after investigators arranged to buy three dogfighting videos from defendant in sting operation. Because the statute addresses a content-based regulation on speech, the court considered whether the statute survived a strict scrutiny test. The majority was unwilling to extend the rationale of Ferber outside of child pornography without direction from the Supreme Court. The majority found that the conduct at issue in § 48 does not give rise to a sufficient compelling interest. Relying on the Supreme Court case concerning religious animal sacrifice (Church of the Lukumi Babalu Aye) together with the fact that the Court has not expanded the unprotected speech categories in a generation, the court felt that a lower federal court should not extend those categories of unprotected speech. The court also stated that a compelling interest must relate to the well-being of humans, not animals. Further, the court found that in order to serve the purported compelling government interest of preventing animal cruelty, the regulation of these depictions must somehow aid in the prevention of cruelty to animals. The court found that the desensitization of individuals to act of cruelty does not rise to the level of supporting this compelling interest. Thus, said the court, § 48 is not narrowly tailored using the least restrictive means. The dissent found that the speech at issue in this case "possesses the essential attributes of unprotected speech identified generally in Chaplinsky and of child pornography as discussed in Ferber." The Government has a compelling interest in eradicating animal cruelty; the depictions of animal cruelty are intrinsically related to the underlying animal cruelty. Moreover, the dissent found the market for videos of animal cruelty "incentivizes the commission of acts of animal cruelty, and such depictions are of de minimis value." The dissent was careful to point out that this statute does not broadly ban all depictions of criminal activity, but rather "merely one prohibiting depictions of a narrow subclass of depraved acts committed against an uniquely vulnerable and helpless class of victims."

Family albums 'n four-speeds – the Murphy family's cars
We appreciate any and all photos submitted for our family albums 'n four-speeds series, but we particularly like seeing the cars that our commenters grew up with. Dennis M, aka Dennis Murphy, is one of our most prolific commenters and recently sent in this batch of photos from his youth, along with captions. We'll start with the above photo:
My Dad, brother Tim and I with '55 Cadillac convertible. We had this car when we moved to Northern NJ in 1957. The new house they bought was pink! My Dad insisted on it being repainted because it clashed with his car!
Mom & Dad with their '64 Buick Wildcat. In those years he was buying year-old Cads or new Buicks. This one replaced the '59 Cad. The Wildcat was the fastest car I had driven up to that point, with fantastic finned drum brakes. I once timed it with a stop watch: zero to indicated 100 to zero in 20 seconds.
My Dad, my dog (Spot!), and Dad's '59 Cadillac convertible (wish he had kept it! But among others he should have kept was a '36 Auburn conv sedan before he shipped out to Europe in WWII!)
My Grandfather and Father at an antique car show sometime in the '50s. A pretty common pastime.
Somewhere on the PA Turnpike, summer of 1960. I was 15 (no driver's license) and I had just bought this '39 Ford convertible sedan ($300) while on a family vacation in Ohio. My Dad had to drive it home to NJ and I had to wait until the spring of 1960 before I could get my license. My brother, me and my Mom with her '59 Caddy.
Me with my first car, '39 Ford Convertible sedan. If my Dad had not been taking the pic, I would have had a pack of Luckies rolled up in my shirt sleeve. My wife says her mother would never have allowed her to date me! I bought it in Ohio in the summer of 1960 for $300, it had been nosed and decked, running boards removed, had a '49 Mercury flathead V-8, stock three-speed and 15″ wheels with hydraulic brakes, blue and white naugahyde interior. I drove it through the last two years of high school, then stored it and dragged it around the country with me. Took it to Pittsburgh, South Bend, St. Louis, Atlanta and then the Chicago suburbs before I sold it – to a guy from OHIO! Back where it started. Subsequent to the '39, I had a '55 Ford Victoria hardtop coupe, a '57 Oldsmobile 88 two-door hardtop (with 17 coats of hand-rubbed black lacquer), a '67 Firebird and then a string of normal cars. Later a few Jaguars: '52 XK120 roadster, '67 340 sedan (nicest car I ever owned), '85 XJS and a '90 XJS. Currently I have a low-mileage '98 BMW Z3 roadster.
Me and my friend Kort with his '57 Ford convertible, fender skirts and a continental kit. We were called hoods back then and spent our time cruising the drive-ins in Northern NJ.
My little brother Tim with his Oldsmobile Cutlass. We lost Tim when he was 32. Of all the folks in these pics, I'm the only one left.
Tim with his first car, '53 (?) Chevy coupe.
Tim with his '55 Chevy conv. The Murphys were always known for doing a lot of car washing!
Tim with '63 (?) Pontiac Conv
A friend and me with the '55 Caddy again
Thanks, Dennis!

Wow! What a collection over the years! Thanks for sharing! I'll take them all!
My uncle had a 64 Wildcat convertible in his garage when i was growing up, as his "Sunday car". It was his old regular car, but he could never get around to selling it. Navy blue, white top & interior. Center console. I always loved that car; just too cool.
I love the STP sticker on Tim's 53 Chevy.
Dennis your family sure liked their Convertibles. And as everyone always says they wish they could've kept them all Great Memories
WOW…Dad had great taste in cars! Those pictures and stories are great…Thanks for sharing your memories.
Great photos, great memories. All of us "car nuts" can relate to this. Thanks for sharing.
That is why they called it the "Fabulous 50s"
I'm voting for the Wildcat! Gorgeous.
Wow, fabulous cars, fabulous memories.
Some real gems. Wish those days could have lasted longer! -
I'll second Dennis' memory of the Wildcat's speed. I learned to drive on my Dad's 1966 Wildcat Gran Sport with a 425. I took my driving test in this car in a snowstorm on Friday the 13th and it was all I could do to keep the car's huge power under control with six inches of snow on the ground. One of the very best cars I ever drove. Alas, my Dad traded it in on a silver 1970 Riviera which lacked the panache of the Wildcat.
Great pics! Thanks for sharing them.
Every car a winner in one way or another. Great memories.
Thanks. -
A fabulous set of photos. What great memories. Sad to read the comment that everyone else in the pics are now gone.
Obviously you came from a GM family (sans the '39 Ford, what a car!).
What a great trip, thanks for sharing. What a great collection of great cars and photos. I'm sorry about your brother, I can't imagine how hard that must have been for all of you.
Thanks Greg & Scotty.
Thanks to all for the nice comments. Yes, Dad (and his Dad) had great taste in cars. My Grandfather's last two cars were a '58 Impala convertible and a '60 Thunderbird coupe.
My Mom was driving a blue '39 Buick when they met, she always said that was why he asked her out.
Dad went through a couple more Cad convertibles after the Wildcat, then several Eldorados before he switched to Lincolns sometime in the '80s.
Great pics Dennis, love them all.. Funny how no hubcaps always made a car so much cooler, a friend used to get his Dads 65 Galaxie 4 door hardtop for the day, 1st step was to pull the wheel covers off and wash the wheels and white walls..All your family members had some awsome cars, My Dad was a Mopar guy then switched to Buicks, sad that the 1st new Buick he ever bought was a 71 Skylark 2 door hardtop, silver car with black painted roof, a year later he passed away from throat cancer…..
I liked the 39 Ford best. My dad's first car was a 39 Deluxe sedan.
Awesome group of cars, esp the Wildcat and the 55 Chevy. Nice read and great pics. Thanks for sharing……
WOW that was great.I lived in West Orange NJ till i joined the navy.I can relate to everything.was also a hood.(car nut)
thanks for sharing
Wow, what great pictures,you had almost as many cars in your driveways while growing up as we did……..given my dad was a Chevrolet/Buick dealer. Wish I had had enough presence of mind to document like you did………..:-)
Great show! Thanks, Daniel…
Thanks for sharing the photos , you should be proud
I was a senior in '64 and always took the family ride when I could (silver with red interior Fairlane hardtop). First thing to do was "pop-the-hubcaps". White walls with black wheels…Priceless.
It's photos & stories like these that make me wish I was born about 20 years earlier than I was (born in `60). What I'd give to be 16, and perhaps find a `54 Mercury or Olds as my first ride! It must've been a great time to be young. The two leaning on the white `57 Ford cvt. is a classic! ("When you're a jet, you're a jet from your first cigarette to your last night `n day!")
Yeah boy, my dad had a 55 Buick Century in 56 when I got my license and of course when I got the car for the evening, a few blocks away the humcaps came off along with the air cleaner (so others could hear the sucking sound of carburetion) and the speedometer/odometer was unhooked (so the mileage couldn't be recorded}. That car was one of the fastest around and basically a Buick Special with a Roadmaster engine. Pretty much the fastest car one could buy in 1955. Those were the days, my friends ….
Learned to drive on Dad's 39 Ford Coupe. Still the coolest car ever!
Dennis, great stories and great family pix! Thanks for sharing. We are immigrants and it took many years for the family to gain a foothold in this country so, although my father as an engineer, developed the cellular rubber carburator float for the big 3 and for VDO in the 60′s, we never had the time nor money for the luxury of changing out cars often. Mostly Chevies.

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Annette M.RizzoOctober 24, 2008
TESTIMONY OF THE HONORABLE ANNETTE M. RIZZO The Honorable Arlen Specter October 24, 2008 "Build It and They Will Come!" Senator Specter, Senator Casey, Councilman Jones, elected officials, judicial colleagues and distinguished members of the bar & community- Special thanks to you, Senator Specter and Senator Casey for bringing to the forefront our actions in Philadelphia to stem the burgeoning rise of residential foreclosures in our local community-our efforts here have been publicized in a variety of media outlets which span the country and even the world.(Just yesterday Swedish National TV was in the courtroom during our session) Requests have come in from numerous jurisdictions within the Commonwealth and across the country which see us as a "national model" for early and direct resolution of foreclosure matters. Senator Specter and Senator Casey-our mission here in Philadelphia is simple-early intervention in the legal path to foreclosure and ultimate sale of owner-occupied residences with the hope that homes may be saved-one address at a time! First and foremost I want to share with you what the First Judicial District's Pilot Mortgage Foreclosure Diversionary Program is NOT about-it is NOT about entitlements, give aways, support of delay tactics, unwarranted breaks, abuse of the legal system, coercion to make deals or the abrogation of legal rights. It IS about setting the stage to promote good faith negotiations for parties to come to the table responsibly with the hope of borrowers remaining in their homes. Our program was established in the Spring of this year in response to our Sheriff, John Green, canceling the entire Sheriff's Sale List in April of this year, 2008. His actions came on the heels of our City Council passing a Resolution to request of the Sheriff and our President Judge, C. Darnell Jones, to declare a moratorium on residential sales. In quick response Judges Jones and Webster Keogh, our Administrative Judge for the Trial Division, took affirmative action by establishing our present Program. To understand what we are now in the present-one has to understand what we were in the past! The true genesis of our current program, which became fully operational in just seven (7) weeks, actually began in 2004. At that time Sheriff Green had canceled the Sheriff's Sale list as well and had come before the Court to seek injunctive relief by way of a moratorium of sales. The matter was before me and though I did not grant the relief then sought, I did establish what would amount to be the prototype of the program we now have--taking time to look at cases/homeowner situations on a micro basis and foster the opportunity for the lenders and homeowners, through counsel, to negotiate favorable resolutions. Success was seen with many of the homeowners based on newly available state funding criteria-through HEMAP, however another significant result came from those proceedings. The Sheriff at that time, argued to the Court that the Sheriff Sales system was "fundamentally broken" and needed to be fixed-I challenged him and the consumer and lender bar to work together to "fix it"! Such was the birth of the Mortgage Foreclosure Steering Committee which has been in force for some four years. During that time, meeting on a monthly or bi-monthly basis, the group has come together to tackle several procedural "fixes" to the local foreclosure process. Though the Committee members are advocates on opposing sides of the issues-they came together to make the process work- such as working on reduction of advertising costs for homeowners in the process, among other projects. Now fast forwarding to 2008 this group was primed to face the present challenges and move swiftly to form our Diversionary Program. It is chaired by counsel to the Sheriff-Lesia Kuzma with stakeholder members on all sides of the issue along with representatives from the City's Office of Housing and Community Development, Housing Counseling Agencies, the Sheriff's Office, the Philadelphia Bar Association and other related community outreach groups some of whom are present here and I would ask they stand-the full Committee is listed in the Program's materials and I never miss an opportunity to openly applaud their ongoing efforts. There exist two (2) major criteria of the Program- With respect to the "Day Forward" part of the Program, at the filing and service of a "Complaint in Foreclosure" upon the homeowner, "NOTICE" is given of a scheduled, mandatory conciliation conference. The Notice provides for the homeowner to call the "Save Your Home Hotline" to schedule an appointment with a Housing Counselor in preparation for the conference- homework must be done to make the discussions fruitful. With early intervention the goal is to reach homeowners who have not abandoned the properties out of hopelessness, and therefore will be maintaining the properties in better physical condition, subject to less arrearage with their mortgages, taxes, utilities, etc. The Court made a tactical decision to create a "Day Backward" Program reaching back to literally pull homes off of the Sale block- aged and difficult cases where judgment against the homeowners had already been entered. In long discussion with our President Judge Jones we took the leap to attempt to save these homes from the gavel- our thinking and feeling being that the effort would be worth it and prove a testing ground for the program; i.e., if we could find any success with these cases- we would hope to have even more success with cases of less vintage. To date all of our Conferences up until yesterday only had listings of "Day Backward" cases- tough cases in many ways. We are pleased to report success beyond anything we could have conceived- As of the end of September, 2008 some 1,540 cases were scheduled for Conciliation Conference-approximately 63% of the homeowners participated- of the group 490 properties were saved from sale- either from outright settlement of the cases, stays of the sale or postponement of conferences to facilitate proposed settlements- another 330 cases were further postponed for several reasons- for settlement agreements, loan modifications, forbearance agreements or "graceful exits". We anticipate more precise capturing of data as the program matures.... I want to take a moment to talk about "grateful exit", a phrase I use to describe a case where it is not feasible for the homeowner to remain in the property. These are cases where there is no means by which a loan can be performing, and therefore this process again, on a micro level, fosters discussion on planned departure from the property. The conferences bring certainty to the parties and dignity to the homeowners in planning for the next phase of their living situations. Lenders have in specific cases agreed to and have even proposed creative plans. In a recent case before me, a disabled homeowner and her son, both in wheel chairs, could not sustain payment on their home. After the assistance of a Judge Pro Tem in a conference setting, the lender agreed to a reasonable time in which the homeowner had to vacate, and also provided a stipend of $4, 000 in moving costs-certainty, compassion, dignity.... More importantly you WILL HEAR FROM SOME HOMEOWNERS who had such success LIKE- Eric Rhaney Who will share their stories- "Build it and they will Come..." One of the most frequently asked question to me about the Program is "How did you get the lenders to 'Buy In' to the "Program?" The response- they didn't buy into the program-they were the architects OF the program! Like all the stakeholders to the program in our Committee-the lenders have partnered with the Court to develop our Program and this is what I believe is the essence of the Program's successful functioning- an element I suggest is needed for creation of a program similar to ours in other jurisdictions-to have those who locally must operate under such a program be the same individuals who have a voice in developing it. The Diversion Program utilizes proven case management techniques in new ways. It is challenging-for unlike other dockets-the overwhelming number of defendant/ homeowners proceed "pro se" which is why outreach by community groups such as PUP, ACORN and Associations under the Office of Housing and Community Development are critical to bring homeowners into the program. Their methods of "hand-to-hand" outreach have proven statistically successful- an important piece of the process as it gets the homeowners into the "chute" for counseling and ultimate conferencing. To "stage" such theatre in the Courtroom, requires an orchestration of a variety of entities coming together which you will hear about: housing counselors, volunteer lawyers, judge pro tems (JPT's). The estimation of in-kind legal services alone for the JPT's amounts to well over $50, 000. It demonstrates collective effort in the true spirit of the program. I invite you to attend a Conference Day- when we are in session- you will "feel" the energy in the room. I believe Senator Casey had such an experience when he visited in one of our August sessions. "Organized Chaos" with a purpose! This program has been built on collaboration among all branches of government-our Mayor, Michael Nutter who quickly mobilized and got the word out with a press conference, Public Service Announcements and an infusion of money into more counseling and legal services as well as the "Hero Fund"- bridge funding for homeowners to "cure" mortgage loans in default. As well City Council, our Sheriff's Office and the wonderful court administrators and staff under Judges Jones, Keogh and Sylvester have supported the Program's success. The cost to "stage" this program has been shouldered by existing court budget although admittedly it presents a strain to existing operations and a challenge to future court budget- we welcome your support in this regard. In sum, we continue to be a PILOT Program with a capital "P"- we are evolving as a living process as we gain more experience with these cases- our mission, however never waivers- We are here to provide a micro-focus to citizen borrowers and lenders in the hopes of achieving as many performing mortgage agreements as possible- for the sanctity of these individuals, their families, and our community- With the continued support and input from our valued stakeholders and the commitment of the wonderful members of the Court and First Judicial District staff we are encouraged that our efforts will be fruitful. We invite other jurisdictions within our Commonwealth borders and on a national level to partner with us in this endeavor and avail ourselves to achieve that goal. Senator Specter and Senator Casey-we appreciate the "radar" you have placed to our program-your interest and outreach to other jurisdictions has put a real face to the current national-no, international debate. We applaud you for not forgetting that the undercurrent of the mammoth financial challenges now facing us as a nation begins with a Tania Harrigan, a Cynthia Henderson, an Eric Rhaney and the countless others like them. Senator Specter, Senator Casey- "Build it and They Will Come!" Thank you. Hon. Annette M. Rizzo |

Halo Headlines: Nolan Ryan to throw out first pitch today, Trout off to a historically impressive start, Angels invited scrutiny with big free agent moves
The June 1st, 2012 edition of daily news for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim including Nolan Ryan to throw out the first pitch today, Mike Trout is off to a historically impressive start, Angels invited media scrutiny with their high-profile free agent signings and much more...
The Story: Nolan Ryan will throw out the first pitch for today's game against the Rangers.
The Monkey Says: So let me get this straight, the Angels are starting their first home series against their division rival by having the rival's owner throw out the first pitch? And then on Saturday, everyone in the stadium is going to wear cowboy hats... against an opponent from TEXAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If the Halos lose this series, I 100% blame the Angels marketing department.
The Story: Mike Trout is off to a historically impressive start.
The Monkey Says: Considering the others that have posted similar numbers, it sure seems like Trout is on pace to be as good as advertised, if not better.

Mine too. I really loved the instrumental arrangement and the melody was great too. I liked Denmark but not really for the top spot, more like top 5. Azerbaijan had a good song and a smart presentation on stage. And I couldn't help but love the energy of Greece's "Alcohol is Free". And Moldova would round up my top 5. I thought it was a pretty good year overall.

FORT MYERS, Fla. – The Florida Gulf Coast men's soccer team shook off a sluggish first half and scored four goals over the final 45 minutes en route to a convincing 4-0 victory over visiting Rhode Island on a rainy Thursday night at the FGCU Soccer Complex.
Included in the four-goal second half were tallies from seniors Franceso DiStefano (Kissimmee, Fla./Osceola HS), Josey Portillo (Metairie, La./Grace King HS), Scott Harrison (Cocoa, Fla./Merritt Island HS) and freshman Xavier Silva (Boca Raton, Fla./North Broward Prep). Both Portillo and Silva added assists to finish with three-point nights, while junior William Morse (Sugar Land, Texas/Clements HS) had two assists.
The shutout was the first of the season for the Eagles, who evened their mark at 1-1-2 on the year. Rhode Island is now 1-4.
"I was pleased with the second half effort this evening," said head coach Bob Butehorn. "The first half was a little sluggish, but we made some adjustments at halftime and they came out with some more energy. There are still see some things we need to clean up a little bit, but we saw some improvement defensively. We have a few days off to prepare the USF Tournament which will give us a chance to fine-tune some things and I am really looking forward to it."
The first half yielded very little on the offensive end for the either team, as both squads finished with four shots over the opening 45 minutes. Rhode Island put the only two shots on goal, but were both stopped senior keeper Adam Glick (Leola, Pa./Conestoga Valley HS).
DiStefano gave the Green and Blue a 1-0 lead in the 50th minute on a nice through-ball from Portillo. The ball split the middle of the URI defense and hit a streaking DiStefano in stride before he tucked a shot into the left side of the goal.
Just as it seemed momentum was on FGCU's side, the game was delayed for 45 minutes due to lightning.
The break seemed to reenergize the Eagles, as they took a 2-0 lead just six minutes after returning from the delay. This time, it was Portillo doing the scoring off a nice cross from junior Deion Jones (Tampa, Fla./Freedom HS). Jones drew a foul 35 yards from the goal to the right and hit a perfect free kick to Portillo who headed it into the back of the net at the 67:08 mark.
Seeing his first action since the opener, Silva wasted little time in making an impact on the game. Silva entered the game 72nd minute and picked up his first college goal at the 71:43 mark to give the Eagles a commanding 3-0 lead. Morse started the action to junior Andres Navas (Miami, Fla./Sunset Senior HS) who crossed the ball from the right to the left side of the box to Silva for the goal.
Harrison added his 11th career goal to cap the scoring in the 87th minute. Morse, again, started the play, feeding a ball to Silva who left it for Harrison to blast into the back of the net. Harrison is second all-time in FGCU history in goals, trailing teammate Cristian Raudales' (Bradenton, Fla./Manatee HS) 13 tallies.
For the game, FGCU held a 20-6 shot edge thanks to a 16-2 difference in the second half.
Glick's two saves were his only two of the night, as he picked up his 27th career win and 17th shutout. He ranks fourth all-time in A-Sun history, just six away from Jeff Cassar of FIU (1992-95).
FGCU will have just over a week off from game action until it heads north for the USF Tournament. The Eagles will open the two-game tournament against No. 9 UC Irvine (4-0) on Friday, Sept. 16 at 5 p.m. FGCU will conclude the tournament against Saint Louis (3-3) on Sunday, Sept. 18 at 2 p.m.

Wrapping up a special year
Published on Wed, Dec 3, 2008 by

With laughter, tears and a whole lot of memories, the Sequim Irrigation Festival royalty soon will wrap up the 2008 parade season.
The Shelton Christmas Town parade, weather permitting, will be the 17th and final procession for the royal foursome.
"It's bittersweet," said princess Melissa Karapostoles, summing up the group's mood in two words. "I'm excited to see the other girls for another parade, but it's sad that it's the last one."
Before the pageant, the Sequim High School student noted that she'd observed past queens and princesses establish themselves as confident and determined young women during their time as royalty. Now, she's undergone the transition herself.
"I've become more comfortable with everything about me from my personality to my appearance," Karapostoles said. "I've really come out of my shell."
But the best part about being royalty doesn't have anything to do with her, Karapostoles continued. "Getting to know the other girls has been my favorite part," she said. "We had some really great times together. When we started, we were acquaintances but not friends. Now, we are like sisters."
Princess Jenae Stratton entered the royalty pageant with the intent of improving her public speaking skills. And that's exactly what she did.
"Now, I can actually talk in front of the class without getting too nervous," Stratton said. "That's good with senior stuff coming up."
Looking through her journal, Stratton recalls the Olympia Capital Lakefair parade in July where somebody called out to her royal counterpart, queen Jennifer Lancheros, asking her to marry him. "We just continued waving and smiling," she said.
"And of course there was the Irrigation Festival," Stratton said, "where I fell off a log the day before the parade and broke my tiara."
Some people might have taken that as a bad omen but the bubbly teenager simply laughed the incident off and wore a replacement tiara.
Persephone Nelson wanted to be royalty for the same reason she wants to be a teacher someday: to serve as a role model for children. The opportunity to work with fellow youths was abundant during the past nine months. "Kids would come up to me all the time and say, 'You are one of the princesses!'" Nelson said. "It was so cute."
Next year, Nelson plans to stay involved with the Irrigation Festival royalty as a volunteer. "I don't want to be completely out of it," she said. "I want to share my experiences with the girls coming in."
Jennifer Lancheros, crowned queen, described Sequim as "a really special place" during the royalty pageant in March. "I feel very privileged to live in and represent such a remarkable town," she said during her acceptance speech.
Those feelings have only intensified, the Sequim High School junior said. "I love Sequim and am so happy and thankful to have had this opportunity," Lancheros said. "It's even better than I ever knew. I've met so many people and so many clubs and seen how helpful and loving this community truly is."
Narrowing down one or two favorite memories from the year is impossible, Lancheros said. "Every single parade has its own special memories. All us of bonded really well this year and from every parade there is something we can look back at and laugh about."
If there's one lesson she learned from the experience, Lancheros said, it's to appreciate life. "Live every day to the fullest," she encouraged others. "Do what you need to do, but have fun doing it. Just look at this last year, it went by so fast. Too fast."
Royalty "mom" Lynn Horton serves as the girls' mentor. She also has a handful of funny stories and memories of time spent with the girls, including the day a mouse was found in the float during the Marysville Strawberry Festival parade, surprising driver Tawana Borden. Princess Stratton was able to trap the rodent in a small box and keep the container at her feet until the end of the parade.
"She wanted to take the mouse home but we told her she had to release it," Horton remembered with a hearty laugh.
"I recommend anybody to try out for this," Horton said about trying out during the royalty pageant. "It's not a beauty contest by any means. It's a fabulous experience and a chance to get out there, learn how to speak in front of a crowd, walk in heels - the whole package."
But even more than being queen or princess for a year, being part of the Irrigation Festival royal court is about representing the Sequim community, Horton said. "From the very first meeting we set the girls down and let them know it is a full-time job for the entire year - when they are in their royal getup and when they are not."
"You hear kids say they just can't wait to leave Sequim," Horton continued, "but these four girls have become a part of Sequim and will always be."
The float - constructed from scratch after a fire demolished the 2007 float - won multiple awards at parades statewide: first place in the Tacoma Daffodil Parade, the Queens Award in the Port Townsend Rhododendron Festival, the Mayor's Award at the Port Orchard Fathoms of Fun, the Workmanship Award at Seafair in Seattle, and the Grand Sweepstakes Award at the McCleary Bear Festival. A complete list of awards is available online at www.irrigationfestival.com/events/float-parade-schedule.html.

With the continuing slide in business sentiment
, the list of companies choosing to put off projects is sharply on the rise. On Tuesday, Maruti Suzuki India Ltd (MSIL) � the country�s largest carmaker � said it is likely to miss the target of commissioning its proposed Rs 4,000 crore plant in Gujarat by at least a year due to the ongoing slowdown in the Indian automobile market.
Related: Indian rupee logs worst fall to all-time low of 66.30 against US dollar, closes at 66.24
The company had originally planned to commission the plant by 2015-16. �It is unlikely that we would be able to commission the Gujarat plant even by the end of FY�16. The slowdown in the auto sector is very acute,� MSIL chairman RC Bhargava told newpersons after the company�s 32nd Annual General Meeting (AGM) here. He said the company is trying to access the sales projections and would accordingly decide the commissioning schedule of the proposed Gujarat plant.
Tepid consumer demand, which has badly hit the auto segment, has also dented the investment plans of companies in sectors such as consumer durables. Home appliances maker Whirlpool of India had earlier this month said it was deferring its capacity expansion plans at its Pondicherry, Faridabad and Pune plants, which currently has a total capacity of 2.5 million units per annum of refrigerators and washing machines.
Earlier, in July, the Saroj Poddar-led Zuari Fertilizers and Chemicals announced that it had put off plans to set up a Rs 5,000-crore urea plant in Karnataka amid problems that it was facing with the acquisition of land. Zuari Fertilizers, part of Adventz Group, had planned to set up a 1.3-million-tonne-per-annum urea plant in Karnataka�s Belgaum district. The plant, proposed in 2010, was to be commissioned by 2015-16.
South Korean steel maker Posco had also announced it will pull out of a $5.3 billion steel mill development in Karnataka. The company, on July 16, said in a regulatory filing in Seoul that it had agreed to cancel the project with the government of Karnataka because of delays in receiving

ProsIt was very quick, had amazing handling,loaded on options and was meticulously taken care of, not a single interior scratch, 98000 miles on it when i bought it 5/29/11 for a 10 year old car pretty good, and had bose sound system, it had every option but the sun roof and the navigation ConsThe gas mileage, if i accelerated just a tad bit too much the turbo kicked in and it took off, 0-60 in just under 8 seconds, for a wagon thats pretty damn fine!!! but thats what killed it, the turbo killed on fuel consumption, other than literlally just that i loved it
Amazing — I really did like everything about this car other than the right side door which had been dented numerous times, but oddly enough , was the only panel with dents so it woulda been an easy fix,i really did love everything about this car other than the gas as stated and have no complaints, the cost of repair also blew, which is why it got totaled, it wasnt long before they decided it would be by the company suggested by our insurance because of the expense in parts.

"The Mysterious Death of Marx Schoenberg"
by Stuart Rockoff
The Jewish community in Donaldsonville was always relatively small, but what it lacked in numbers in made up in vibrancy. A city publication from 1900 declared, "our Jewish residents are reckoned among the best and most liberal minded citizens, and are associated with every progressive move." In fact, Donaldsonville has had several Jewish mayors, including Myer Lemann (c.1881), David Israel, and Walter Lemann (c.1912). But, like many other southern towns, today the only remnant of Donaldsonville's former Jewish community is its cemetery, Bikur Sholim. Although the community is no longer extant, the graves of previous Jewish generations tell a great story about the southern Jewish experience in "the Gateway to Cajun and Plantation Country."
Jewish life in Donaldsonville followed a similar pattern to other small towns in the bayou. Jews from in and around Germany arrived, settled on the river, established themselves as merchants and storekeepers, and eventually moved on. But the history is not nearly that simple. For one thing, Donaldsonville is unique in its demographics. Because of the heavy French presence in the region, Jews from French-speaking Alsace settled there en masse in the 19th century. In fact, Alsatian Jewish migration to South Louisiana was a natural progression because of the French heritage and language of the area.
Like many Jewish communities, the first institution established. even before a synagogue, was a Jewish cemetery. In Donaldsonville's case, the cemetery, called Bikur Sholim, was established in 1856. The cemetery's oldest tombstone is a child's grave, which reads: "To the Memory of Rachel, Daughter of Isaac and Sarah Friedenthal." Baby Rachel was only 13 months when she died in 1858. Although it predates the Civil War, Bikur Sholim's graves are mostly from after the war. Especially noteworthy are some of the anterior rows of the cemetery, consisting of yellow epidemic victims from New Orleans from the late 1870s, who were sneaked out at night for a Jewish burial, in order to prevent being interred in mass graves or burned.
The Jewish cemetery in Donaldsonville illuminates a treasured past. Dry goods merchants ruled the day, like French-born Jews Salomon and David Klotz. Men named Lion, Blum, and Weinschenk were all successful dry goods merchants, mostly from Alsace. But not all came from the French-speaking region. Levi Blumenthal was a German-born store clerk whose wife Elizabeth was also a German Jew. Alsatian Marx Klein, the town's first rabbi, was buried in Bikur Sholim in 1908. Another of Donaldsonville's spiritual leaders, Raphael Singer, not technically a rabbi, is buried in the cemetery under the epitaph "He served the Lord." In addition to conducting services, Singer co-owned and operated the local Dollar Store called Singer and Strauss. Also among the 120 Jewish souls buried in Bikur Sholim is Solomon Klotz, who served as Donaldsonville postmaster, Mayor of Napoleonville, and member of the Assumption parish police jury.
Perhaps the most intriguing tombstone is one that reads: " in memory of Marx Schoenberg, Born in Germany, 1833, Murdered November 9, 1870. May he rest in peace." Marx Schoenberg was not simply a Jewish merchant who was killed by a thief or a jealous husband, but rather, he was the mayor of Donaldsonville during the tumultuous period of Reconstruction. Born in Germany, Schoenberg moved to Donaldsonville from New Orleans in 1868. His brother-in-law, Morris Marks, also lived in Donaldsonville at the time. Both Marks and Schoenberg were strong Republicans who were politically connected with the party who controlled the state government in New Orleans. Marks was elected as a parish judge in 1868, while Schoenberg was appointed mayor of Donaldsonville in 1870 by Republican Governor Henry Warmoth. During the contested election of 1870, Schoenberg was killed during a standoff with militia troops after a dispute over counting ballots; the exact circumstances of Schoenberg's death were shrouded in conflicting claims and testimony. Marks, who took in Schoenberg's orphaned children, went on to have a long and controversial career in state politics which included several unsuccessful runs for the U.S. House of Representatives. Both Schoenberg and Marks sought power and influence during the era when the Republican Party controlled the state.
In keeping with Jewish custom, the graves in Bikur Sholim face east and are below ground. While many of the gravestone inscriptions are in English, the majority bear at least some Hebrew and/or French. A few graves have individual fences surrounding them, though most do not. One particular monument in Bikur Sholim that deserves special mention is that of nine-year-old Morris Samuelson, son of Samuel and Rebecca Samuelson. The tomb is remarkable for its porcelain picture of young Morris on the monument. One of Donaldsonville's largest Jewish families is buried in Bikur Sholim: Henry and Clara Pforzheimer, who arrived in Donaldsonville in the late 1860s, and their seven children. All were lifelong residents of Donaldsonville and members of the Bikur Cholim Synagogue. Interestingly, because the Pforzheimers were a modest-income family, it has been speculated that their children's tombstones were paid for by community donations. The most infamous burial in Donaldsonville's Jewish cemetery is that of Ike Don. He was, it seems, a vagabond traveling through Donaldsonville who died unexpectedly. Because no one knew where he was from or how to get in touch with his relatives, the decision was made to bury him. But because no rabbi was available in Donaldsonville, the funeral rites were performed by Father James Kinkead, a Catholic priest. Louis Mason, a WWI vet, was not Jewish, but was buried with his Jewish wife, Hylda. Today, the Jewish cemetery remains the most visible legacy of Jewish life in Donaldsonville.
Jews in Donaldsonville first gathered to worship together as early as 1849, but only officially became a congregation around 1860. In that year, 25 members of the community grouped themselves together as a benevolent society under the name of the "Hebrew Bikur Cholim of the Parish of Ascension." The official act of incorporation was signed by Louisiana Gov. Thomas O. Moore on Feb 9, 1860. The society's charter members were S. Weinchenk, D. Blum, L. Lion, L. Cahn, S. Stern, S. Blum, M. Blum, Sam Bhem, M. Lion, G. Kline, R. Kaufman, M. Cahn, G. Weil, M. Israel, E. Lion, S. Mayer, L. Lehman, and T. Levy. The purpose of the society, according to the charter, was "relieving the sick and destitute, in the promotion of education and religion and such other benevolent acts as may be resolved upon." From that organization, whose name meant "Visiting the Sick," sprang the temple. The synagogue was completed in 1871 and dedicated June 9, 1872 with Rabbi H.S. Jacobs of New Orleans officiating. At that time, the population of Jewish citizens in Ascension Parish numbered 179.
In May 1878, B'nai Brith organizer Charles Wessolowsky visited Donaldsonville and reported its Jewish citizens to be "good and worthy conductors." Although the population of "Louisiana's sugar bowl," as he called it, was only 2,000, Wessolowsky found that "as usual, our brethren have the sway of business; they have built a handsome synagogue, wherein they hold their regular Sabbath worship and conduct their services under the leadership of Rev. Dr. Sophar—a polished and intelligent gentleman." According to Wessolowsky, Donaldsonville's Jewish businesses were closed during Sabbath services. These services were enhanced by the volunteer choir that Wessolowsky praised highly. He met with Congregation Bikur Cholim President G. Fidel, Vice President W. Klappman, and Secretary A. Levy. Wessolowsky also described the importance of Donaldsonville's Ladies Hebrew Benevolent Society, headed by its President, Mrs. Weinschenk.
While Wessolowsky visited in 1878, Donaldsonville Jews did not organize their own chapter of B'nai Brith until 1902, when the Ascension Lodge no. 543 was officially chartered; the chapter boasted some 30 members. By the 1930s, the group had dwindled to 16 names, led by President Leopold Lemmel of Napoleonville, and Secretary Raphael Singer.
In the 19th century, the community was led by several large Jewish families: Bloch, Blum, Himmler, Kaufman, Kessler, Katz, Hirsch, Klotz, Lemann, Levy, Pforzheimer, Sternfel, Tobias, and Weil. According to an 1892 article in the American Israelite, Jews from "distances of ten to fifteen miles" still came to Bikur Cholim to be members of the congregation. But the core of Jewish life resided in Donaldsonville, as the Israelite wrote, "the burden of upholding religious institutions, such as public worship [and] Sabbath school, is made to rest chiefly upon the few Jewish families residing in the town of Donaldsonville, while the members residing in the country merely pay their dues and put in an appearance at the synagogue once in a year—on Yom Kippur." Despite their small numbers, the residents of Donaldsonville were careful to observe the Jewish laws. According to the American Israelite and the Donaldsonville Daily Times, services were always well attended and Jewish businesses were closed on Sabbath mornings and on biblical holidays, which "cannot be said of many other places containing much larger Jewish populations." Despite its apparent praise, the Israelite was also quick to identify "numerous intermarriages" as a serious problem for the small and geographically isolated Jewish community.
In the 1890s, Rev. Leon Straus served as the spiritual head of the Donaldsonville Jewish community. In 1890, the congregation was reorganized; in 1901, its members voted to formally affiliate with the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. During this reorganization, the temple was headed by Rabbi Marx Klein, who resigned in 1905 and passed away in 1908. With Klein gone, it seems that regular services began to fall by the wayside, and over the next several decades, the community dwindled. In 1940, the synagogue could claim about 80 members. The largest families still attending services in Donaldsonville were the Kesslers, Posners, Sternfels, Blochs, and Netters. Although not technically a rabbi, Raphael Singer served as the community's spiritual leader and the synagogue's secretary. After Singer's death in 1947, acting Rabbi Adolph Polmer conducted Hebrew New Year services in the synagogue, gathering Jewish worshippers from adjoining parishes. By the early 1950s, the congregation had disbanded. The last straw came in 1955, when Bikur Cholim was sold. Today, the former synagogue building now stands as an Ace Hardware Store.
No account of Jewish life in Donaldsonville can neglect the Lemann Store, built in 1877 to house the mercantile business established by Jacob Lemann (originally Lehmann). In 1836, Jacob started a business after arriving from Hesse; eventually, he rose from peddler to storekeeper. Before long, he owned several sugar plantations in the Donaldsonville area, operated several plantation stores, and had frequent real estate dealings. From humble beginnings, he built up a large business, selling agricultural supplies, buggies and carriages, hardware, sands, dry goods, clothing, boots, cement, oil, and groceries. His palatial store, called the B. Lemann & Bro. Building, was built in 1877. The 60,000 square foot facility was built by New Orleans architect James Freret. The B. Lemann & Bro. Building (named for Bernard and his brother Myer, the two sons of Jacob) was described at the turn of the twentieth century as the "largest, most imposing and best stocked mercantile establishment in Donaldsonville, and, in fact, this part of the state." Lemann's reputation was well-earned thanks to his motto: "Fair dealing, courteous treatment." Although the store closed in the early 1980s, it was once the oldest continuously operating department store in Louisiana and today houses the Historic Donaldsonville Museum.
Many young men in the 19th century got their start working for Lemann. J.E. Blum was born and raised in Donaldsonville and from an early age worked for B. Lemann & Bro. In 1894, he was appointed by Governor Foster to full out the unexpired term of J.H. Mathieu as Donaldsonville Alderman; he was later elected to the position in 1896 and 1897. Similarly, after working for B. Lemann & Bro., Henry L. Weil served as president of the parish police jury. He was also elected as member of the Parish Democratic Executive Committee. Lemann was certainly not the only Jewish businessman in town. Arnaud Bloch (1866-1934), who came over from Alsace in 1883, opened up his own business in 1889. Within two years, he had established himself in the community as the proprietor of the "Dollar Store," the local newspaper calling him a "remarkably shrewd buyer." He was well-known for his large and varied stock of dry goods, clothing, and notions. Bloch married Leonora Goldstein (1872-1946), daughter of Moses Goldstein and Bertha Lemann.
Despite the predominance of Christians in Donaldsonville, Jews from Bikur Cholim enjoyed close relations with the greater Donaldsonville community. In fact, part of this camaraderie is demonstrated by the fact that the Jewish cemetery, started in 1856, was built on land donated to Bikur Sholim by the Catholic Church. As the Protestant cemetery was literally next door, there seemed to be little animosity between Jews and Christians. Anti-Semitism was not a problem, though some feared it might soon become another Europe. The story of Lezard Leumas is illuminating. Leumas came to America in the 1860s and settled in Donaldsonville. Fearing anti-Semitism, he wanted to keep his Jewish religion secret, and thus reversed the spelling of his last name from "Samuel" to "Leumas." Appropriately, he named his second son Samuel Leumas. In fact, acceptance proved to be more of a challenge than anti-Semitism, as many Donaldsonville Jews intermarried and converted to Catholicism.
This acceptance is also reflected in the number of local Jews who were elected to political office. Solomon Weinschenck was elected mayor in 1874. In the early 20th centurey, several Jewish politicians were elected in Donaldsonville: David Israel served as Alderman of the 2nd ward, as postmaster, and as town treasurer. J.E. Blum served as Donaldsonville's Alderman for the 3rd ward. In nearby Napoleonville, Solomon Klotz and his son Samuel both served multiple terms as mayor in the first half of the 20th century.
Despite this prominence, Jewish life began its steady decline in the early 20th century. The story of Frenchman Gaston Hirsch says it all. In 1946, Gaston Hirsch arrived in Donaldsonville. After serving in the French army during WWII and even spending four years as a POW, he came to America with his Catholic wife Olga and their child. After a short while in Louisiana, he owned a men's clothing store in Donaldsonville, where there were a few Jewish-owned stores left, like David Bloch's clothing store and the Lemann Brothers store. After his business died out, he became the caretaker of Bikur Sholim Cemetery. Hirsch's sister, Yvonne, was married to David Bloch, son of Maurice Bloch and Mathilda Himmler, a big Donaldsonville family. By the late 1990s, there were only two Jews left in Donaldsonville. After Hirsch's death, only Irv Birnbaum, a former employee at Cohn-Turner was left and it was he who maintained Bikur Sholim. He had moved to Donaldsonville in the 1980s and was often profiled by the local media as the "Last Jew in Donaldsonville." With his recent death, the Jewish community of Donaldsonville is gone.

What Happens at a Screening
This is the 17th year of the Nationwide Asthma Screening Program, the ACAAI's public service campaign to find adults and children who are at risk for undiagnosed and uncontrolled asthma. New this year, people also can see if they are at risk for nasal allergies. The program is supported by Teva Respiratory and has screened nearly 133,000 people and referred more than half for a professional diagnosis.
Being screened is a quick and painless process that includes filling out a questionnaire, taking a breathing test and talking with an allergist.
Listen to a podcast or watch the below video to learn more.
When you arrive at a screening, you will complete registration forms that ask for basic information like your name and age and a series of questions about your breathing, coughing, wheezing, itchy eyes and runny nose. Kids ages 8-14 get a form they can fill out themselves. For children younger than 8, parents complete the form on their child's behalf.
After filling out the forms, you will take a breathing test. It doesn't hurt at all, just simply blow very hard into a tube. The tube is connected to a computer that measures your lung function.
You will review the results of your breathing test and your registration form with an allergist who will ask you additional questions about your symptoms. If the results suggest you might have asthma, nasal allergies or exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, the allergist will refer you to a doctor for diagnosis.
The screening program takes about 15 minutes.
