BK PR - NYC DOE Educational Technology Conference - Jun 6, 2012
Brooklyn, N.Y. – A major conference on educational technology, organized by the New York City Department of Education, will be held Friday, June 8, at LIU Brooklyn.
The keynote speaker at the conference is Alan November, an international leader for educational technology. Representatives from the schools, including superintendents, administrators and teachers, as well as guest vendor presenters from Adobe, Google, Microsoft, SmartBoard, Apple, Renzulli Learning, Rubicon Atlas, Pearson, Time to Know and CompassLearning are expected to attend.
The event will take place at the LIU downtown Brooklyn campus from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Health Sciences Building. Dennis M. Walcott, chancellor of the NYC DOE, will present welcoming remarks, as will George Baroudi, Vice President for Information Technology and Chief Business Process Improvement Officer at LIU.
"The main goal of the upcoming conference event is to share best practices and provide opportunities to experience additional innovative ideas for teaching and learning," said Mr. Baroudi. "This event is a culminating instructional conference to celebrate the journey of the NYCDOE Personalized Learning Systems (PLS) two-year pilot program." This pilot included 30 schools from all five boroughs, and involved each school implementing two out of three online programs (Pearson's SuccessMaker, CompassLearning's Odyssey and Time to Know) in two grades. A video montage of PLS teachers, who will share insights and reflections on the pilot, will be offered.

The Cardinals are 2-1 after narrowly escaping Oakland with a 24-23 win thanks to the powerfully inaccurate leg of Oakland PK Sebastian Janikowski. Arizona's other win was in Week One when it narrowly defeated the Rams, the worst team in football in 2009. However, throughout the first three weeks the Cardinals have most resembled the squad that was drubbed 41-7 by the Falcons in Week Two.
Head coach Ken Whisenhunt acted shrewdly upon his arrival in January 2007. He benched recently cut first-round pick Matt Leinart and installed Kurt Warner in the starting lineup, hired Russ Grimm to fix the protection and filled pressing needs on defense, making subtle shifts such as moving Antrel Rolle from cornerback to safety. With excellent coaching, it took a mere two years for Whisenhunt to correct the woes of an historically inept franchise and reach the Super Bowl.
But after righting the ship, the Cardinals took two steps backward this offseason when they not only lost Warner to retirement, but allowed standout MLB Karlos Dansby to defect to the Dolphins via free agency. Being able to replace FS Rolle with Kerry Rhodes softened the blow in the secondary, but the Cardinals had no solution for replacing Dansby, who quietly has been one of the NFL's top performers, and already has made a huge impact in Miami with his combination of instincts, secure open-field tackling and big-play ability.
Throw in the trading of Anquan Boldin, who like Dansby did not fit into the Cardinals' budget, and Arizona lost two key difference makers on each side of the ball — simply too much production to replace to remain competitive in a league that has come to lack a truly dominant franchise.
Derek Anderson does not have the accuracy, quick trigger or rapid-fire brain that allowed Warner to excel in Arizona, and the loss of Boldin has not eased his transition into the starting lineup. The Cardinals undoubtedly will be in the market for a new quarterback next season, and even with the addition of rookie ILB Daryl Washington, they need to find a new defensive leader and more youth at LB positions that are not producing enough.
• The Falcons made a big statement by heading into New Orleans and knocking off a Saints squad that may be the closest to being dominant in the NFL today.
• Few teams have much success without their starting quarterback. The Steelers are a bold exception, showing it does not matter if Dennis Dixon or Charlie Batch is in the starting lineup — their defense is that good. Defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau is in a class of his own. The aggressive, one-gap "30" front employed by LeBeau, Green Bay's Dom Capers, Baltimore's Greg Mattison and the Jets' Mike Pettine is proving to be one of the most disruptive and efficient in the league.
• The Panthers have struggled to create pressure with their front four the way they were able to do with Julius Peppers, and the offensive line did not provide a lot of time for rookie Jimmy Clausen, as Geoff Schwartz struggled to handle the edge in place of the injured Jeff Otah. The Bengals won Sunday's game in the trenches with a physical style of play, blanket coverage on Carolina's young, underwhelming receivers and the consistent pressure created by one of the most athletic defensive lines in the league, even if it may not have shown it. The Panthers' offense appeared stuck in neutral.
• For as much as the Eagles have been criticized for shipping out Donovan McNabb and creating a quarterback controversy, the team's QB situation is one the most enviable in the NFL and driving Philly's early-season success. The attitude, toughness and energy that Michael Vick has brought to the offense, not to mention the added element of mobility that has begun to escape Donovan McNabb in recent years, have all served to electrify an offense that seemed to be stuck in a rut under McNabb's leadership. His legacy in Philadelphia could be teaching Vick and Kevin Kolb how to prepare like pros. Vick never applied himself to the game in Atlanta and it was the greatest reason for his sporadic performances. With more maturity and newfound structure in Philadelphia, Vick is playing the best football of his life and is making it very easy for fans to forget about No. 5.
• Through three weeks, the Lions are tied for the league lead with 11 sacks. The additions of Kyle Vanden Bosch and rookie Ndamukong Suh are already paying huge dividends.
• The new-look Redskins do not look very good. Former Eagles assistant Steve Spagnuolo's Rams earned their first victory of the season against Donovan McNabb. That came on the heels of the Redskins' overtime loss to Houston in which McNabb could not close out a 17-point lead. Offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan appeared visibly frustrated on the sideline throughout the course of Sunday's game. Defensive coordinator Jim Haslett should have been even more frustrated by the inability of the 'Skins to get off the field on key third downs, allowing a rookie quarterback (Sam Bradford) to pick apart the defense when it mattered most.
• In a billion-dollar industry in which low-level players are rewarded like CEOs at mid-size companies and where one missed assignment could result in a pink slip, it is easy to lose sight of the fun the game was meant to be. The season has barely begun, but already the 49ers, Panthers and Giants do not appear to be having much fun. Struggles on the offensive line, and in turn at the QB position, have been a common thread for all three struggling squads.
• Despite the early success of the Texans' ground game, featuring the NFL's leading rusher, Arian Foster, questions still exist about Matt Schaub's edge protection, with or without suspended OT Duane Brown. Brown's replacement, Rashad Butler, was no match for the elite quickness, burst and bend from Cowboys OLB DeMarcus Ware, who finished with three sacks and many more pressures as he seemed to live in the backfield in Sunday's victory for Dallas.

While Athens is a large metropolis and the seat of Greece's national government, there is a somewhat slower pace to Athenian life than in most cities in Western Europe. Many neighborhoods in Athens retain a village-like atmosphere and are populated by a variety of small shops and street markets rather than large supermarkets or department stores.
In Athens, the day's activities begin to slow down by two o'clock in the afternoon. Most shops and businesses close between three and five. But in the evening, Athens once again bursts with life. The tavernas and clubs host diners and dancers who enjoy themselves until well after midnight.
One of your most rewarding experiences while studying in Athens will be getting to know the Greek people themselves.
You'll find your Greek neighbors to be, by and large, outgoing and curious. There's a certain enthusiasm and intensity about the Greek people which you'll find contagious. You'll treasure your time spent in Greece–where life is lived "on the street" for all to see, to partake in and enjoy.

When opportunity knocks, the Riverside football team was more than happy to answer the door.
The opportunistic Rams defense stymied the Deer Park Stag attack for most of the game and came away with a 21-16 win on Friday.
The Riverside win snapped a five-game losing streak to Deer Park and improved the Rams' overall record to 1-1. Deer Park fell to 1-1.
"That was a pretty exciting rivalry game," said Riverside head coach Tom Griggs, who saw his team force five turnovers over the course of the game. "We capitalized on the shots we got."
Scoreless for most of the first half, it was the Rams who struck first on a 58-yard drive late in the second quarter. The six-play drive, all on the ground, was capped off by a 7-yard run by Riverside quarterback Sam Zanoni.
The Rams waste little time extending their lead to 14-0 with a five-play drive after Tucker Lee recovered a fumble on their own 44-yard line. The quick march was highlighted by a 35-yard pass play from Zanoni to Dallas Shuler. The pair teamed up two plays later on a 25-yard scoring toss.
The Stags opened up the second half with a 58-yard drive that was capped off by a 28-yard touchdown pass from Nic Clough to Theron Taylor.
Deer Park, however, could not catch up to the Rams as the Riverside defense intercepted three passes, two by Rhett Hardan, in the second half.
Griggs, who saw the Rams win only two games in his first year as head coach last season, said his team gained invaluable confidence last week in a hard fought 27-14 loss to Timberlake a week earlier.
The Rams showed off some of that confidence late in the third quarter with a 65-yard drive, featuring Zanoni and tailback Jacob Collins running skills. The drive ended with a 34-yard bolt through the Stag defense by Zanoni.
Deer Park managed to cut the lead to 21-14 when Quinton Fletcher snagged a deflected Clough pass in the back of the endzone with 6:30 to play.
The Stags drove inside Ram territory on their final two drives only to come up short both times.
Riverside conceded a safety when Zanoni purposely ran out of the end zone in the game's final seconds.
Collins finished with 123 yards rushing on 23 carries. Zanoni, who intentionally gave up 20 yards rushing the game's final minute to eat up most of the clock, finished with 79 yards on the ground on 25 carries.
Clough led the Deer Park attack with 159 yards passing. Tight end Travis Pierce was his favorite target with nine catches for 89 yards.
The Rams travel to Kettle Falls 7 p.m. Friday for their Northeast A League opener. The Bulldogs (0-2) are coming off a 13-7 to Tonasket.
Deer Park returns home 7 p.m. Friday to entertain St. Maries. The Lumberjacks had a bye last week.

jdehaas says: Well... check this one out. The mouse spell movements are awesome and working, the storyline is good. Have fun.
jdehaas says: What you need more? No good graphics can compare a good game and a storyline as much involving as plane scape torment. This is my favorite game all time. And mord go to hell, but i guess we r in there already.
jdehaas says: I waited a long time for this game to come out. It had the most awesome movie at that time. I enjoyed playing it a lot, but I expected more from it. Still one of my favoritous RPG's.
jdehaas says: I played this game with my friend over modem for nights and nights. It was the first real 3d game. Somehow ppl enjoyed doom at that time better. For me Descent is all time favourite.
jdehaas says: Well what to say. I bought all games in this saga after BG, but never got the same feeling (except for planescape torment).
jdehaas says: Scary game, very involving, the same fps games at that time where only about shooting. This game added the environment, which is still rare these days...
jdehaas says: Lol Myst, the first real graphical adventure I played.I was very bad and impatient ofcourse, get a walkthrough, noooo, just play it and dont look at hints!
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

Cooperstown Crier
---- — The Cooperstown Hawkeyes will not play baseball at Doubleday Field during the 2014 Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League season – or anywhere else, for that matter.
On Oct. 30, PGCBL President Jeff Kunion confirmed that Hawkeyes owner Tom Hickey is looking move his summer franchise from Doubleday Field and has requested a voluntary suspension for the 2014 season as a result.
"They are going to take a year off," said Kunion, adding that Hickey's request was officially granted during a Wednesday night conference call involving PGCBL members. "Their negotiations with Doubleday Field reached an impasse, so they're looking for another facility."
Kunion said the PGCBL offers the option of voluntary suspensions to owners who may be struggling to sustain a franchise in a particular area.
Hickey said Thursday he's involved in negotiations to build a new baseball complex in the vicinity of Cooperstown.
"I can't tell you unequivocally we'll have it up and running (for the 2015 season), but we'll be on the road to doing that, if all goes well," Hickey said. "I can't be 100 percent, but it looks good."
Cooperstown Mayor Jeff Katz said he was sorry to see the Hawkeyes leave, but he said he felt like it became clear that Hickey was moving in that direction since this summer when he began publicly speaking about his dissatisfaction with Doubleday Field, the village and the village's officials.
"Every year the Board of Trustees approved the contract," Katz said. "Clearly there was some benefit to having them here in Cooperstown.
"Tom was clearly unhappy with the village and the field," he continued. "Doubleday Field is still Doubleday Field. It hasn't changed since he came here. Doubleday Field is no better or worse than when the Hawkeyes started playing here."
Hickey said he was given assurances that improvements would be made to Doubleday Field when he moved the team there in 2010.
Katz said Hickey gave the village a "take it or leave it offer" to keep the Hawkeyes in Cooperstown. The offer was a flat fee of $1,000 for rentals for 20 to 25 games in 2014, a certification from the state Department of Health that Doubleday Field is safe, sanitary and free from all illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia, and an agreement that the village suspend paid parking at Doubleday Field after 4 p.m. on days of Hawkeyes games.
Hickey said the reason for the stipulation about illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia came because of the way he said Doubleday was left following a mid-July concert by Further, a Grateful Dead legacy band.
Rentals for Doubleday Field are $500 per game Friday through Sunday and $400 per game Monday through Thursday. Under Hickey's proposal, the Hawkeyes would have paid $40 to $50 per game.
"The reality is those bookings are going to happen anyway, especially the ones on Friday through Sunday," Katz said.
In August, Hickey told The Daily Star that he was considering a "serious offer" to move the Hawkeyes to another upstate New York municipality. Hickey went on to say Doubleday Field is inadequate for a PGCBL franchise, citing its lack of lights, clubhouses, showers and office space.
Hickey also said in August that paid parking in Cooperstown and a rent increase to use the field led to a loss of fans and revenue during the 2013 season, when the Hawkeyes went 18-25 to finish last in the five-team East Division.
"Other teams pay for facilities with lighting, concession stands and locker rooms and they pay a third, or less than a third, of what it costs to operate Doubleday Field," Hickey said. "The village under Mr. Katz is completely disinterested in negotiating anything reasonable."
In 2013, the Hawkeyes paid $10,000 to rent the field for 23 scheduled games. The $10,000 rental fee was slightly more than the per-day rental average. However, the Hawkeyes also had the right to sell banner advertising for the field grandstands, and food and beer at the games. None of those sales are granted to groups that do day rentals. In 2012 and 2011, the Hawkeyes paid $8,000 to rent the field, and in 2010, they paid $10,000.
Kunion said the Hawkeyes' suspension leaves the PGCBL with nine teams for the 2014 season, but other franchises have expressed interest in joining the league. He added the PGCBL will hold another conference call this week to discuss possible franchise additions.
"He's a good owner and this was an opportunity for him to step back," Kunion said of Hickey, whose team drew 599 fans per home game last season, which was up from 2011 and 2012. "What he's done in Cooperstown has been exceptional considering what he's had to work with."
Kunion also said Hickey will be required to pay league dues during the suspension and should the Hawkeyes fail to find a new home for the 2015 season, they will be asked to leave the league, as per PGCBL rules.
"We are going to make every effort to (return to the PGCBL by 2015)," Hickey said, adding that PGCBL rules do not specify that a suspended team must leave the league if it doesn't field a team the year after a suspension.
"That would come down to a vote by the board of directors," Hickey said.
Daily Star Sports Editor Dean Russin, and staff writers Rob Centorani and Greg Klein compiled this report.

Just imagine, it's your first day of college, and you are so excited about making a new start. In high school you were never very organized, but you have promised yourself that you are going to be responsible. In one of your classes you hear about a research paper due towards the end of the semester. The paper makes up a large portion of your final grade, but you don't worry too much since the deadline is three months away. Time goes by and you soon realize that the deadline is a month away. You promise yourself to go to the library the next day, but keep putting it off. Soon the deadline is only days away and you have accomplished nothing. The night before the paper is due you are in the library working all night long, and print the paper moments before class begins.
To some this may seem as an exaggeration, but for many, including myself, it is a reality. Procrastination is a problem that many people suffer from, but luckily there is help. One article I discovered said that 90% of college students procrastinate, and 25% are chronic procrastinators.
- The larger the assignment, the more likely you are to procrastinate.
- Background stressors such as noise, or a personal crisis.
- Difficulty concentrating. Often students begin to work on a project, and then start daydreaming about the upcoming weekend or boyfriends/girlfriends.
- Poor time management. When a student does not manage his/her time wisely, the consequences can be severe. You may actually find yourself wasting time by worrying about an assignment instead of completing it.
- Negative beliefs in oneself. Negative thoughts often get in the way of completing the task, and stop you from getting the work done.
- Unrealistic expectations about what you can accomplish in an amount of time.
- Lack of motivation.
Procrastination often leads to feelings of guilt, inadequacy, and/or depression.
Luckily, there are a number of things a student can do to help overcome procrastination. By following these tips, hopefully you will be able to beat procrastination!
- Set aside a regular study time each day. If you are having a hard time managing your time, it is important to set aside a regular study time each day. Use this time to finish homework, or begin to work on upcoming projects. Having good study skills is a necessary skill to survive in college.
- Break work up into sections. If lack of motivation is the problem try to divide you work up, so you don't have so much to do at once. Write yourself questions at the end of each section and make sure you know the answers after reviewing all of the material.
- Find a good study environment. If your study environment is the problem, talk to your roommates about keeping the noise level down during study time, or try studying in a different location such as the library.
- Spend time gathering your thoughts before you dive in. By spending the first 5-10 minutes gathering your thoughts and organizing your workspace, you will discover that you can accomplish a lot!
- Keep a record of how often you daydream. If daydreaming is a problem, try marking down on a sheet of paper how often you daydream. Each time you catch yourself daydreaming, put a check on the sheet of paper. You will be surprised at how much time you are wasting.
These are just a few of the solutions to overcoming procrastination. For other helpful hints check out the web sites listed below.

Review: KFC, Blackburn
3:09pm Friday 20th January 2012 in Takeaway reviews By John Anson, Features editor
ONE of the big boys of the takeaway world, KFC and I have a strained relationship.
No matter which outlet I have visited over the years — and not just in this area — I always seem to come away with either part of my order missing or something completely different than I'd asked for in my little bag.
So it was with some trepidation that I went in search of an original recipe meal for the better half as a Saturday night treat.
The Blackburn outlet, close to the hospital, has had a bit of a facelift but it still looks a little dowdy.
Not trusting the drive-through — I'm a bit of a Luddite when it comes to ordering — I was pleasantly surprised to find only a small queue and I was served within a couple of minutes.
I think you need to be a regular to get the most out of KFC.
There are so many offers and combinations — the cynic in me thinks done to make you spend more than you intended — that it can be confusing.
But I placed my order for two pieces of chicken, regular chips and gravy for the better half and a large fries, chicken burger and large beans for me (the beans are the one thing I really like at KFC).
After a wait, my bag was packed and I was on my way having spent just over a tenner.
Back at the ranch I pulled out the various boxes, bags and pots and — guess what?
No regular fries. It's nice to know that you can rely on KFC to maintain its standards.

Mesa Police recaptured a suspect who slipped from their custody the day before and when he was captured again, someone caught it on camera and that video has a lot of people talking.
It began when a suspect barricaded himself inside a Mesa business Wednesday. Police and SWAT teams later got him to surrender, but it didn't end there. The suspect was able to walk out of a hospital and get away before Mesa officers later caught up with him at a Phoenix intersection. It's the force used to apprehend him - that is raising a few eyebrows, and it was all caught on tape. Mesa Police caught up with the suspect at 44th Street and Broadway where they arrested him a second time. And it's where that witness was, driving on his way to work when he saw the police cars swoop in, he recorded the whole thing.A driver in the area, shot video of the arrest Thursday morning. In the video, you see an officer run over a man apparently face down on the ground with another officer on top of him. Then you see both officers punching the man."Why are they punching him... why are they," said Dustin Fairchild. That's the man behind the camera asking those questions out loud, the answers are still unknown tonight.Mesa Police say this all started a day earlier when the suspect tried to cash a stolen check then ran into an empty building to elude police. He then barricaded himself inside and held police and the SWAT team at bay.He was eventually arrested without any major incident, then taken to the hospital to be treated for minor injuries. But Mesa Police say the man somehow walked out of the hospital unnoticed and eventually made his way to Phoenix, where Mesa Police caught up with him Thursday morning."This guy is screaming, they just banged his head against the ground, elbowed him a couple times" said Fairchild.The man behind the camera says he saw both the suspects arms behind his back, before police began punching him. The video then cuts to a shot of the suspects bloodied face. Mesa Police have not released any details about the moments leading up to this arrest nor have they released the suspects name.Mesa Police say they're aware that this video is out there, but say it's too soon to comment on it. Police say they haven't had a chance to review the video or the reports about the incident.We're told the suspect is in a hospital and is still in custody. We're hoping to learn more about what happened in the moments before the camera started recording on Friday.

News: 2013 Press Release
SACRAMENTO -- Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones today announced an average of 21 percent insurance rate reduction for Sacramento area homeowners insured with State Farm General Insurance Company. The reduction will result in an average annual savings of $100 for homeowners statewide.
"As a major homeowner insurer in California, State Farm is demonstrating that insurers can serve customers well and operate profitably at the same time. As the economy continues to recover, this rate reduction will no doubt alleviate some of the financial burden many homeowners are experiencing," said Commissioner Jones. "I'm pleased to help Californian's hold onto more of their hard-earned money."
According to State Farm, 85 percent of policyholder premiums statewide will either decrease or remain the same under the new rates. The rate reduction is effective for policy renewals beginning April 15, 2013.
"This rate filing helps us deliver on our commitment to offer our customers a remarkable combination of excellent products and exceptional service at a competitive price," said Tom Conley, State Farm General Insurance Company President and CEO. "We appreciate the collaborative effort it took to bring forth this rate filing that we believe is good for our customers."
Other California counties will also see significant rate reductions:
Since elected in 2011, Commissioner Jones has approved more than $1billion in savings for California consumers and businesses. These savings resulted from the department's review of nearly 2,000 property-casualty rate filings under Proposition 103.
# # #
Media note:
Rate filing history:
The Department of Insurance has approved several homeowner and automobile premium rate reductions, filed by the following companies, saving California consumers millions in premiums annually:
The California Department of Insurance, established in 1868, is the largest consumer protection agency in California, regulating the $123 billion insurance marketplace. In 2013 the California Department of Insurance received more than 170,000 calls from consumers and helped recover over $63 million in claims and premiums.

The nation's economy may be struggling, but Houston remains critical to the global economy.
That's according to France's ambassador to the US here Tuesday to show support for a cultural partnership.
French and Houston-based artists are collaborating to paint symbolic doors that will go on display around the city. France and the US face tough times, but Ambassador Francois Delattre says this art project strengthens our economic ties.
"On the cultural front but also on the economic front, cross investment is booming between Houston and France. We French are the third largest foreign investors in Texas and in particular, here in Houston."
Professional artists, along with student teams from around the city, will paint 60 doors. French artists paint one side. Houston artists paint the other.

text: this has probably already been beat to death but my pto won't stay engaged. it grinds and pops out. I took the shaft out and checked the bearing and the snaprings are all tight. the shifter pin was worn almost all the way off. I brazed a a 1/4" drill bit piece into the lever and put it back together. still the same thing. I took the coller off and reassembled it and took a pic. the only thing I see wrong is the front shaft has rounded off splines and the gap is bigger than I would like. is there a way to close that gap up? I am already using thin gaskets on the back. can that front shaft be removed without major tractor splitting?

The oldest church in Lehigh Acres has been saved from closing its doors, for now.
Pastor Deborah Frysinger says her church is one-of-a kind.
"Everywhere you look there is history, this is the first church in Lehigh Acres," Frysinger said.
An example of that history can be seen on the stained glass windows. A single peace sign that dates back to the 1970's is a centerpiece of sorts in the church sanctuary.
It's these unique features that motivate Pastor Deb to stay hopeful even though times are tough at First Community Congregational.
"We are still struggling, we are treading water," Frysinger said.
But things are looking up.
When we first visited the church six months ago, members had just voted to sell the building.
"But God has blessed us, he truly has," Frysinger added.
Now, they've decided not to do that, and instead will fight to keep the doors open.
Church members say Pastor Deb's new vision for the church has brought new life into this house of worship, that's not only keeping food on their plate, but in the stomachs of others.
"Things are looking a lot better than what they were and hopefully as each month goes by it gets better and better," church member Margaret Switzer said.
Switzer says the pumpkin patch is helping the church get some new recognition, and money.
"People come along here, no connection to the church and it amazes me sometimes how much money they spend on pumpkins," she said.
If that's not enough, Pastor Deb says she will always remain faithful to what the church represents.
"The church itself will not be closed no matter where we are we will go together," she added.
Which at least for now, is here at home.

Australian DJs discuss prank-turned-suicide
Two Australian DJs whose prank phone call resulted in the apparent suicide of a nurse were very tearful in an interview.
The DJs called a London hospital that was treating Prince William's pregnant wife Kate for morning sickness and pretended to be other royals. The nurse who answered and gave the hosts information was so embarrassed she apparently committed suicide.

Chapter X
Are you remembering the "health" in your occupational safety and health program? The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 aims "...to assure so far as possible every working man and woman in the Nation safe and healthful working conditions...." Toward this end, OSHA's Safety and Health Program Management Guidelines strongly urge the identification and control of health hazards and the implementation of a medical program.
A medical program is another name for the systems that employers put in place to ensure occupational health expertise within the overall safety and health program. Having a medical program does not necessarily mean that you must go out and hire a doctor to work at your company. There are many ways for you to find and use occupational health expertise. This chapter will help you decide what will work best for your business.
We call the medical program the occupational health delivery system, or OHDS. This term will help you remember that a comprehensive program is more than an after-the-fact response to work-related injuries and illnesses. It also includes the activities that uncover the safety and health hazards in your business and that help you formulate a plan for prevention or control. It is a management system in the same wy that the actions you take to promote safety are a management system.
You may find it more difficult to establish the goals and objectives for your OHDS than for the other parts of your safety and health program. The harm it prevents may not appear obvious at first. For example, an employee who is experiencing hand pain and who gradually is developing a cumulative trauma disorder (CTD) may seem to have a less serious problem than the employee who has a severe cut or broken bone from an accident. But OSHA's experience is that work-related health problems are no less serious in terms of human suffering and costs than the more obvious injuries.
An effective OHDS will help reduce all types of safety and health hazards and the resulting injuries and illnesses. The positive results from such a program will be measurable by a drop in lost workdays and workers' compensation costs. You also can expect this program to help increase worker productivity and morale.
You will find that the OHDS works best when managed by occupational health professionals (OHPs). A physician or a registered nurse with specialized training, experience, and knowledge in occupational health works with you but not necessarily as your employee. This arrangement works best because safety professionals, industrial hygienists, occupational medicine physicians, and occupational health nurses all have their own areas of specialized knowledge. You cannot expect to get all the information and service your safety and health program needs from only one type of specialist. If you tried, you might overlook or misidentify a dangerous hazard in your business.
Appendix 10-3 contains a description of the different ways that physicians and registered nurses receive specialty training in occupational medicine and health and the different services that they can provide you. Chapter 7 contains information about some of the services you can get from safety professionals and industrial hygienists.
There is no such thing as a standard OHDS. There is no substitute for examining your business' special characteristics and developing an OHDS that is right for you. These special characteristics include:
- The actual processes in which your employees are engaged;
- The type of materials handled by your employees;
- The type of facilities where your employees are working;
- The number of employees at each site under consideration;
- The characteristics of your work force, such as age, gender, ethnic group and educational level; and
- The location of each operation and its distance from health care facilities.
As you look at the characteristics of your employees and workplace, you should be asking yourself questions such as:
- Are there hazards in the process, materials or facilities that make it likely that employees will get sick, hurt or will suffer abnormal health effects their work?
- Are there so few employees that onsite occupational health resources are less practical than off-site contract services? Are there so many employees that time and money will be saved by installing onsite resources?
- Are there special characteristics of the workers that make them more vulnerable to illness or injury or less likely to understand the safety and health hazards of the worksite?
You should be aware that, under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), employers may require employees to submit to medical examination only when justified by business necessity. It is OSHA's judgement that a health and safety concern qualities as a business necessity. The results of any medical examination are subject to certain disclosure and record retention requirements (see Part 1910.20 of Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations), but also are subject to confidentiality requirements of the ADA. The ADA's employment-related provisions are enforced primarily by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
- Is there anything about the workplace that makes it important to have occupational health assistance nearer or more rapidly obtainable?
Answering these questions will put you in a better position to decide which OHDS services you need. The services are listed below. Appendix 10-1 includes some examples of how different companies varied sizes tailor their OHDS activities.
There are three basic types of OHDS activities:
- Prevention of hazards that cause illnesses and injuries,
- Early recognition and treatment of work-related illness and injury, and
- Limiting the severity of work-related illnesses and injury.
Preventing Hazards
- Make sure that your safety and health policy shows that you are as concerned about your employees' health as their safety. (See Chapter 2.)
- Make sure that qualified OHPs help you identify the hazards and potential hazards of your workplace. (See Chapter 7.)
- Use OHPs in the development and presentation of health training and other preventive activities, including the various measures required by OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens standard. (See Chapter 11 and OSHA Publication 2254, "Training Requirements in OSHA Standards and Training Guidelines").
- Remember that it is your responsibility to determine if you have employees who fall within the scope of the Bloodborne Pathogens standard and to make arrangements for compliance for these employees. Staff nurses, physicians, and emergency response personnel are covered by the standard, even where no other employees appear at risk of occupational exposure to infectious diseases. (For more information on this standard, see OSHA Publication 3127 (Revised 1993), "Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens." See also OSHA Instruction CPL 202.44C, which deals with current enforcement policy regarding this standard."
- Provide professional occupational health expertise as a resource to your safety and health committee. (See Chapter 4.)
- Be sure to include you OHDS in your annual self-evaluation. (See Chapter 12.)
Early Recognition and Treatment
- Use OHPs to help you decide, on the basis of existing or potential hazards at your workplace, when you may need to conduct baseline and periodic testing of your employees and new hires for evidence of exposure. This is called "health surveillance" and is required by some OSHA standards for specific types of exposures.
- Use OHPs to do the testing needed for health surveillance.
- Make sure records are kept of employee visits to first aid stations, nurse's office, contract clinic or hospital. Have an OHP review the symptoms reported and the diagnoses to see if there appear to be patterns that indicate an occupational health problem.
- Provide first aid and CPR assistance through properly trained employees on every shift. Make sure that these employees keep their certifications current and that they receive adequate training in the hazards specific to the worksite. The Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) outlines specific training requirements for employees expected to render first aid at work. It is essential that employees understand the hazards from bloodborne communicable diseases, including hepatitis B and AIDS, and how to protect themselves.
- Involve OHPs in alcohol and drug abuse interventions, smoking cessation programs, and any other company programs geared toward helping employees recognize and obtain treatment for substance abuse problems.
- Make sure that the OHPs whom you use have current credentials, have had recent occupational health continuing education, and understand the hazards of your worksite. These standards will help ensure their ability to recognize early symptoms of occupational health problems and begin prompt and appropriate treatment to prevent disability.
- Make sure that standardized procedures -- called "protocols" in the medical community -- are used throughout your occupational health delivery system, particularly if you are using more than one contractor for health services. (For more information, see Appendix 10-5).
- Have one of the OHPs keep your employee injury and illness records, whenever feasible. Make sure your recordkeeping system effectively ensures the confidentiality of individual employee medical records. (See Appendix 10-2.)
Limiting Severity
- Coordinate the emergency response of all responsible individuals or departments at your worksite and of all emergency organizations off the worksite, such as the fire department, any contractual organization or a nearby community hospital. Everyone needs to know exactly what to do and what to expect from others. (See Chapter 8 and OSHA Publication 3088 (revised 1991), "How to Prepare for Workplace Emergencies.")
- Maintain contact through your OHP (whether you are an employee or provided by contract) with any employee who is off work due to an occupational illness or injury. Keep in touch with the practitioner providing treatment and care to ensure that the treatment is appropriate and that the employee is responding as expected.
- Use your registered nurse or physician to help advise an employee who is off work for an extended period about workers' compensation rights and benefits and ongoing care.
- Use these OHPs to provide evaluation aimed at determining whether an employee can resume full duty after injury or illness or whether work duties need to be modified.
- Consult your physician or registered nurse for help with the development of a modified duty position to ensure that the employee can perform the work and benefit from feeling productive again.
- Develop and deliver health care in accordance with Federal and state regulations, for example, OSHA standards, workers' compensation laws and public health regulations.
Your business' medical program, what we call its occupational health delivery system, is an important part of your safety and health program. It can deliver services aimed at preventing hazards that can cause illness and injury, rapidly recognizing and treating illness and injury, and limiting their severity.
To determine which of these services are appropriate, you need to consider your business' special characteristics. These include the type of processes and materials your employees work with and the resulting or potential hazards. Other considerations are the type of facilities in which employees work, the number of workers at each site, and the characteristics of the work force, such as age, gender, cultural background, and educational level. The location of each operation and its proximity to a health care facility also are important.
Whether you hire or contract with an occupational health professional, make sure this person has specialized training, experience, and up-to-date credentials. Then use him/her to help you develop and deliver the services you have chosen.

Ten people face charges for a string of burglaries and break-ins on Lookout Mountain in Georgia and Tennessee.
All of the suspects are from Hamilton County. The arrests stem from a joint operation between police departments in Lookout Mountain, GA; Lookout Mountain, TN and the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office.
Police say a number of recent arrests put a big dent in the crimes that had mountain residents on edge for weeks.
Four of the suspects were reportedly caught in the act at a house on Wood Nymph Trail. They were also charged with a break-in on Hardy Road.
The Hamilton County defendants were arrested following a raid at a house on Long Street.
Authorities found a stash of items police said were taken from burglaries on lookout mountain and elsewhere.
They will each appear in court later this month.

Hi, I'm Guy. I'm a Systems Manager from the UK. I grew up in Dunfermline, studied Geography at Oxford and work for P&G in Newcastle. I love travelling, but prefer a journey not just a destination – I took the train from Scotland to Cambodia in 2010 and saw southern India by rickshaw in 2012.

By the time you've finished reading this editorial (assuming you're an average reader who takes in 250 words per minute), 60 people will have needed a blood transfusion, give or take.
That's because every 2 seconds someone needs one. You can't hardly start and stop a timer in 2 seconds, but in that time, someone's life is on the line. Another 2 seconds, another life.
Take a moment and think about that number in a context greater than the time it takes to read today's paper. How many blood transfusions are needed every day? Every week? Every year?
We haven't put a pencil to the math, but those will be some big numbers. Shocking numbers. And when you think of the many lives behind those numbers, they become scary.
What if one of those numbers was someone you loved? Statistically, it's likely that the lives of several people reading these words depend on blood donations. What if one of those lives was yours?
It might not be you today, and it might not be your loved one tomorrow, but eventually someone you know and love will be on the receiving end of a blood transfusion.
But what if the blood you needed wasn't available?
What if it was because too few people donated?
What if too many people got wrapped up in their summers and their vacations and put donating blood on the back burner until the fall arrives?
That last one isn't a what if. It's actually a reality.
Nationwide, donations to the American Red Cross were down 10 percent in June, resulting in about 50,000 less donations than expected. A nice chunk of that is because high school and college students make up 20 percent of Red Cross donations. With school out, those donations aren't happening.

SOURCE Golden Door Foundation
SAN MARCOS, Calif., May 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Golden Door Foundation announced today that it has made a $75,000 unrestricted contribution to support the vital work of Forensic Health Services of Escondido. Forensic Health Services is the critical first step for child victims of abuse or molestation, as well as adult victims of sexual assault, to help law enforcement gather evidence for criminal prosecution.
"It is our privilege to support the work of the Forensic Health Services. The center is providing a critical service to children and adults who need every opportunity for physical, mental and emotional health support from our community, and the Golden Door is doing our part to help," said Kathy Van Ness, General Manager of Golden Door Resort.
North County law enforcement officials bring victims to the center to begin the investigation of child abuse and sexual assault. Trained staff is available 24-hours a day to provide medical services for children and adults who have experienced sexual or physical abuse, working closely with local investigative and prosecutorial agencies to provide complete state of the art assessments that may be used in court later.
"The caring staff of Forensic Health Services are experts who help victims through the profound trauma of sexual abuse and violence with great sensitivity. We can't eliminate the scars of abuse, but we can help the people who can help them heal faster," said Van Ness. The Golden Door Foundation was founded in 2013 to show support to improving communities, both globally and locally.
Forensic Health Services is funded by fees charged to law enforcement agencies for services, as well as private contributions. It faced closure earlier this year when the Palomar Health district cut its longtime donation. San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts, San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore, and other leaders have stepped up to support the center and partner with private donors to keep the program operating.
"The center is a critical component of law enforcement's process in gathering evidence, ensuring that child and adult victims in our community have the support they need through the investigation and beyond," said Sheriff Bill Gore. "Our Sheriff's Deputies count on this resource to be available 24/7, and we truly appreciate the support of The Golden Door in maintaining this valuable program. With law enforcement participation and private donors coming together, the Forensic Health Services team can continue to do the great work that our community needs."
Since the Forensic Health Services center opened 28 years ago in Escondido, more than 15,000 people have been interviewed at the site. It is the only service of its kind in North County, and only one of two in San Diego accredited for children.
"Thank you to the Golden Door Foundation for stepping up and helping victims of sexual assault and child abuse. Their generosity will help to save the forensic center," said Supervisor Dave Roberts. "I am enormously grateful to the Golden Door for its efforts to improve the health and well-being of North County residents through this donation. This is a great example of genuine community engagement and partnership."

(MyFoxBoston.com) -- Lonzo Guthrie, 69, of Austell, Georgia, was arrested Tuesday night for the 1974 murder of Eileen Ferro in Shrewsbury, Fox25 News has learned.
Lonzo Guthrie is a registered sex offender, according to an inmate website, Guthrie was convicted of rape in October 1974.
Mass State Police detectives assigned to Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early's office arrested Guthrie in Georgia Tuesday night, almost exactly 40 years after Eileen Ferro was killed.
On February 22, 1974, Ferro was found stabbed to death in her home on Ladyslipper Drive. Over the decades, detectives worked the case. The break came with a DNA match, according to law enforcement officials. After violating his parole, Guthrie's DNA was entered into the FBI's Combined DNA Index System which police say helped them connect him to Ferro's murder.
Nancy Donnelly, Eileen Ferro's sister, told Fox 25's Bob Ward she is elated with the news that there has been an arrest in her sister's case. She said she feared she might never live to see justice.
The day before, Guthrie had delivered furniture to Ferro's home. He was 29 at the time.
Georgia authorities say Guthrie lived in the state for 12 years, and at one point was a long haul trucker. They also say he is a person of interest in other similar crimes in the south.
Lonzo Guthrie appeared in a Douglas County, GA courtroom Wednesday afternoon. He refused to waive his extradition rights. For now, Lonzo Guthrie remains held without bail in Georgia until a hearing decides when he will return to Massachusetts to face new murder charge for the death of Eileen Ferro.

Updated 7:00 p.m.
Despite the building undergoing Measure E renovations, it was business as usual for voters at Horace Mann School.
"It's been steady all day," polling inspector Jolene Hui said. "People showed up before 7 a.m. to vote."
Though there were early-morning lines, the pace of voters slowed towards the end of the day.
Voters assigned to cast ballots at Horace Mann usually vote in the school's auditorium, which has its own entrance on Hamel Drive. But with Measure E renovations of the auditorium underway, polling was moved to a room in the middle of the school. Voters had to enter at the front of the school and go through two hallways to reach the voting area.
Horace Mann Principal Steve Kessler said volunteers from the school PTA had manned the entrance all day to point voters in the right direction.
"There has been no confusion as to where to go," he said.
It's a big day at the polls with voters casting their ballots for POTUS, Congressional Districts, Assembly Districts and a handful of propositions.
How was your trip to the ballot box? Are you wearing your allegiance on a hat, button or T-shirt? Excited to finally get the "I Voted" sticker?
"It was busier than I had ever seen it," said Beverly Hills resident Andy Licht, who voted at El Rodeo School. "It's nice to see so much passion for the election."
Licht modified his "I Voted" sticker by adding "for Obama" to reflect his presidential preference.
"I am personally passionate about President Obama being re-elected," he said. "I am very concerned about various groups that are attempting to limit people's right to vote in states such as Ohio and Pennsylvania."
Human Relations Commissioner Tom Pease voted at the Beverly Hills Hotel in the northern part of town.
"It wasn't hugely crowded when I went, but there were quite a few people," Pease said. "It was fun voting at the hotel, but I think it would have been better to have it at someplace more central. Usually my district votes at the library or City Hall. If I was infirm or didn't drive, it would have been a three-bus trip."
Yaron Sadka, a founding member of the Young Professionals Rotary of Beverly Hills, voted at Beverly Vista School.
"Regardless of who is elected, their efforts must be spent on repairing the country internally, that is our biggest issue," Sadka said. "Both our government and citizens are overly leveraged and that must change or the U.S. will end up like Greece and Spain."
Sadka added that he spent two hours Tuesday morning reading over the various nominees and propositions before casting his ballot.
"Overall, it was pretty quick," he said. "I got there around 12:30 p.m. and was out within 10 minutes."
Some early-bird voters did, however, experience wait time at the polls Tuesday morning.
"The Horace Mann lines were out the door at 7:30 a.m.," Beverly Hills resident Frank Pizzurro said.

McDonalds13 reviews
First Reviewed By: Tamby Ismail
McDonalds is my childhood to me. I remember I first ate there when I was seven and thats when I fell in love with it. See the great thing about McDonalds is that it combines great service with good-tasting food and a fun atmosphere for the whole family, and thats what makes it a famous brand.
On the other hand many people say its an unhealthy diet, well lets face it all fast-food restaurants nowadays are unhealthy, and thats why you must not make it a habit. McDonalds is great in them days you are so hungry but at the same time lazy to cook, so instead of going to a fancy restaurant and starve until you have a good meal, you might as well stop at Macs and enjoy your taste buds to the fullest and in no time. [quote]
At Macs food is great for both adults and children. The Happy Meal for example is great for kids, it comes with your choice of burger or nuggets, French fries, and a coke plus it comes with a fun toy. As for adults there s many choices of meals, But my personal favorite is the famous Mc Chicken which is simply a burger with lettuce, mayo, and cheese and you can double it up to become the Big Mc Chicken, but whats so intriguing is that those burgers are so simple yet so delicious and thats simply Macs secret.
As for the atmosphere it may be a bit noisy but thats the whole point of a family restaurant cause theres kids, but they can play in the play area made for them, and theres a party area in some branches for Birthday parties. Other...
So I hope I gave you a brief yet helpful review about McDonalds, and I hope you liked it cause am Lovin It>> McDonalds

What is wrong with you man, every one has a different view to everything, life, food, cars, and simply everything, Tamby's review was great, and everyone agreed, except you, so its a matter your view to the place, and btw maybe you found Mac not good enough for you because the branch you went to, or the people who made the burger, according to their mood. See I bet now your changing your mind about your reply, that was only his view to Mac and that was yours, if you didn't like this article wright a review about Mac next week, and we will see if you won 500 or not , Sincerely Mr.Fatal

Detailed Description
The new Clever is here!
Good news! The already incredible Clever Dripper has been improved even further. The design has changed for a friendlier look and more importantly, the plastic material has been replaced by Eastman Tritan, a super tough, BPA free copolymer. This makes the Clever resistant to cracking. On top of that, the shut-off valve was redesigned for easier cleaning and the seal is removable. In fact, the entire bottom is removable so the seal and valve can be cleaned with ease.
The dripper will fit on cups and thermoses with tops wider than 1.5" and less than 3.75" in diameter. Of course, if you put the dripper on a very narrow thermos, you should make sure the dripper is stable. BPA-free plastic. Not dishwasher or microwave safe. 18 fluid oz. max capacity.
The Clever Coffee Dripper has advanced the concept of Full Immersion Coffee Brewing by creating an easy way to brew without bitterness, acidity or loose grounds. The difference is it's new shut-off valve system. Instead of pushing the grounds to the bottom of the brew carafe, the grounds settle naturally. We simply can't think of a single better way to easily, consitently, produce a clean and full-bodied cup of coffee, time after time, without the hassle of cleaning up coffee grounds.Advanced in 3 ways:

I use my Clever every day. It makes the best cup of coffee that I can brew at home. I keep an extra one just in case.
Raleigh, NC 2014-01-16
awesome, I have a french press and pour over equipment, but this is what I use every morning now for that gotta-have-it-quick first cup of the day. So easy, I taught my 10 year old how to use it so he can make coffee for me. :)
Dayton, VA 2013-01-30
This is the easiest, cleanest, and simplest way to a great cup.
Deptford, NJ 2013-01-23
I just bought my second one of these. They are a great drip brewer. If you like drip brew and are not going to more technical competitive route I would recommend one of these.

I'm new to the clever dripper but it has made such a diffference in my morning coffee It has made my coffee taste delicious and I couldnt be happier
San Diego, CA 2012-06-05
It is a very nice and clean way to brew a single cup of coffee. It gives a more consistent brew that the traditional pour-over and a cleaner cup than a french press. The only recommendation I have is to release the coffee at 3 min., at 4 it tend to be over extracted.
Santa Rosa, CA 2012-04-02
Love this We have one at home and one at work. We take it everywhere for a perfect cup of coffee.
Laguna Beach, CA 2012-02-17
So I *loved* this product -- for the first two weeks. Then, my favorite part of it flunked the test of time (and washing.) The best part of the clever coffee dripper is the automatic shut-off when the coffee cup is full. Alas, after two weeks, this function failed, and now I have to keep an eagle eye on the thing while it pours. Other than this, it's really great, but this is for me a deal-breaker.
Parma, OH 2011-10-24
Exactly what I was looking for. The coffee at work was often burnt or someone would use too many packets and make jet fuel. The Clever Coffee Dripper allows me to quickly and easily make my own cup of coffee, without having to deal with the community coffee. I make the coffee, toss the filter/grounds and give it a quick rinse the next for the next cup.

Ford Flex vs. Volkswagen Eos Reliability Comparisons
You won't find Ford Flex or Volkswagen Eos reliability information like this anywhere else. Actual repair frequencies, not just vague dots, to make it clear how much the Ford Flex and the Volkswagen Eos truly differ in reliability.
These stats are promptly updated four times a year, to much more closely track Ford Flex and Volkswagen Eos reliability as the cars age. Others tell you how reliable the Ford Flex and the Volkswagen Eos were a year ago, when the cars were a year younger and had 12,000 fewer miles on them. Only TrueDelta tells you how reliable the Ford Flex and the Volkswagen Eos have been recently.
See only powertrain and chassis results
Ford Flex and Volkswagen Eos Reliability for the Year Ending June 30, 2014
Any result under 5 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

On Tuesday Stephen Curry did not play for the Golden State Warriors when they traveled to Cleveland. On Friday Derrick Rose didn't play in Cleveland either, and on Saturday All Star Center Al Horford was sidelined for the Cavs visit to Atlanta as well.
After being 6-6 this past Monday, the Cavaliers dropped each of those three games by 10, 39, and 27 points respectively. In the words of Martin Lawrence back in 2003, stuff just got real.
Real adversity that stared this Cavaliers team and coaching staff directly in the face with each of Joe Johnson's game high 25 points last night. Each of Jeff Teague's 14, Marvin Williams' 12, as well as each of fifty-eight year-old Jerry Stackhouse's 6.
It was that many Hawks who finished the night scoring 11 or more points for the game too, with 12 Hawks in total having scored, and this laugher was never close. Not exactly the performance you're looking for after getting humiliated at home the previous night by 40. [Read more...]

|Sheriff to look at reopening county jail
|Wednesday, February 06, 2013 4:16 PM
By JIM LANGHAM • Feature Writer
PAULDING – There are many steps and a respectable chunk of time between considering and actually reopening the Paulding County Jail, says newly elected Sheriff Jason Landers, but the thought is crossing his mind more with each passing day.
For one thing, Paulding County spent nearly $300,000 in out-housing prisoners in 2012. Up until Dec. 1, local voters had funded at least $260,000 in bed space alone in the Putnam County Jail. Another $28,000 was spent in December, said Landers.
But, that is only the beginning of the inconvenience of out-housing prisoners away from the local facility. There are many other expenses that are difficult to document accurately.
