PLATTSBURGH — The Joint Council for Economic Opportunity has received a grant of $46,488 from the Charles R. Wood Foundation to assist in implementation of the Head Start Program's iStartSmart project.
The iStartSmart System is an all-in-one computer learning system that focuses on the development of 18 core skills that are essential for school readiness.
The computers and software packages will establish an enhanced developmental pathway that will level the playing field for Head Start children's enrollment into kindergarten and will build a firm foundation for future academic success, according to a news release from JCEO.
Through JCEO's annual fundraising events, including the Golf Tournament and Golf Ball Drop, it was able to raise enough funds to purchase two iStartSmart" Systems.
The grant money will now allow JCEO to purchase the computers and software packages for the 15 remaining Head Start Centers that do not have this new learning technology.
The Charles R. Wood Foundation was founded in 1978 with its mission to provide assistance to areas of special need in the Lake George Region and surrounding areas.
Not-for-profit organizations with an emphasis on programs for children, health care and the arts are the beneficiaries of the funding. A Board of Trustees oversees the foundation with a goal to preserve the mission established by Charles R. Wood.
For more than 40 years, Head Start has offered a comprehensive early childhood program, which fosters growth and development to Clinton and Franklin counties' economically disadvantaged population.
"The grant from the Charles R. Wood Foundation will have a profound impact on Head Start's children ability to enter kindergarten ready to succeed," JCEO said in a statement.
"A heartfelt thank you goes out from JCEO to the Charles R. Wood Foundation for their charitable donation."

LEWES, Del. - Despite some backlash from Love Creek residents, Sussex County developers are still moving forward with their RV resort and campground plans.
Jack Lingo Asset Management says they are trying to address any concerns that locals may have. In addition to closing off an access point and relocating cabins, project officials say they are attempting to fix roadways before they begin construction.
"We are making a number of infrastructure improvements, namely the road improvement I mentioned earlier. In addition, we are bringing central sewer to this site," said Nick Hammonds, a principal at Jack Lingo Asset Management. "We've done everything to make this responsible and application that we're proud of and think we'll be a great success."
On Tuesday, the Sussex County Council will make a decision on approving the project. The residents around Love Creek looking to "Stop RV City" say they're bringing more than 100 concerned citizens to the meeting.

Structural and magnetic properties of ball-milled Ni₁₁Co₁₁Fe₆₆Zr₇B₄Cu powders
Article comments
Originally published in Journal of Applied Physics 103, 07E728 (2008). DOI:10.1063/1.2839315 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2839315).
Thick films of the Ni₁₁Co₁₁Fe₆₆Zr₇B₄Cu composition were synthesized via screen printing of the ball-milled ribbons of the above composition for possible use as planar inductors. The ribbons were obtained by rapid solidification. The resulting ribbon samples were annealed at 300 degrees C for 2 h to cause embrittlement. They were found to have soft magnetic properties (4πMs∽13 kG,ΔH ∽100 Oe, and Hc< 0.5 Oe). The brittle ribbons were ball milled using tungsten carbide vials and stainless steel balls in an inert atmosphere for various milling times. The sample milled for 10 h was found to have a 4πMs of about 13 kG and a coercivity of about 73 Oe with an average particle size of about 5μm. The screen printed (as prepared and aligned) samples showed a linewidth (Δ H) of about 1000 Oe. Similar values were obtained for screen printed films annealed for 1 h at 200 and 400 degrees C.

University of Miami freshman standout David Thompson, who had corrective surgery on his throwing shoulder last month, said Tuesday he is out of a sling and feeling better than he did a year ago when he had surgery the first time to repair a torn labrum.
"I've got a while to get 100 percent and get ready for the season, but I'm feeling great. We're taking it slow this time," said Thompson, who Monday earned Freshman All-America honors from Perfect Game.
"Flexibility-wise, it's better. The strength obviously isn't close to where it needs to get to, but we have a great training staff and I know it will get there."
Coach Jim Morris expects Thompson will be able to field grounders at third base when fall practice opens Oct.21 but said he probably won't begin throwing again until January. Morris said he wants Thompson, who paced the Hurricanes with six home runs, 46 RBI, 84 total bases, a .462 slugging percentage and 14 multi-RBI games, to play third base moving forward.
Hurricanes sophomore left-hander Chris Diaz, who earned one of 24 coveted roster spots on the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team, traveled to Japan this week to compete for Team USA as part of its international schedule. He has made one relief appearance thus far, giving up one hit over two-thirds of an inning.
After returning home, Team USA will play a pair of exhibitions before opening a five-game series against Cuba on July 18 in Des Moines, Iowa.

The holidays have the staff at VCU Children's Hospital full of cheer and they're showing it off with a special video surprise.
Leave a note of thanks for VCU Children's Hospital
In support of a 12 Days of Holiday Cheer campaign they wanted to show how much everyone appreciates the doctors, nurses and staff. So, they put a call out on Facebook asking their fans if they had a favorite doctor or a special message or story they wanted to share. They were hoping to get 100 responses and if they did, they promised to have the staff show off their dancing skills.
"Beyond providing a top notch facility, in my experiences CHoR also has some of the most talented and caring hospital staff out there," said Julia Ayscue in one of the notes. 'The nurses and doctors truly care about their patients and it shows. I am so grateful for their dedication and kindness."
In response, the staff made a music video and posted it online today.
WATCH the VCU Children's Hospitals music video
The staff and some patients showed off their talents, set to the music of One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful."

vacation rental description
This is my cozy, quiet, clean, ground level studio. It is not only spacious, but has that beach cottage feel. This water side, pool side, home away from home is brightly decorated with a breezy palm tree and beachy feel. The heated pool is just outside my sliding glass door. Beside the pool is a small grassy yard shaded by a huge palm tree and other smaller palms. When I am there, my grandson loves to pitch his tent there and pretend we are camping. Also, in this shady area, there is a cooking grill for those great BBQ, cook at home nights. The board walk, over the sea wall, where the sail boats are docked, is a wonderful place to end the day and watch the sunset reflect on the water.

The results showed a steep drop in brain activity related to deep sleep. The volunteers, 33 of them divided into two age groups, took five minutes longer to fall asleep and their sleep duration was reduced by 20 minutes, according to the research. Their bodies also produced less melatonin, a hormone known to regulate sleep.
"I was very skeptical until we saw the data," said Cajochen, the lead researcher on the study. "We have to follow it up."
Cajochen said he didn't "dare publish it right away because the issue is very controversial. Until now there hasn't been a peer-reviewed study like this." Cajochen wants other researchers to confirm his team's findings. An ideal study would look at patients over the full lunar cycle, which is 29.5 days, he said.
Earlier studies have provided promising yet ultimately inconclusive glimpses of the moon's impact on humans and animals.
The British Medical Journal published two articles on dog bites and the full moon in its Dec. 23, 2000 edition. One showed the number of people bitten by animals "accelerated sharply" at the time of a full moon based on 1,621 patients seen in the emergency room at Bradford Royal Infirmary in Bradford, England, over a two-year period. The other, based on admission rates for dog bites over a one-year period at public hospitals in Australia, showed no moon impact.
Data on crime has been equally mixed. Based on police records and emergency room visits in Dade County, Fla., over a five-year period, researchers found a "significant clustering of cases" of homicides and aggravated assaults around the full moon, according to a study published in The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry in May 1978. Another study looking at police records of arrests in Decatur, Ill., between 1967 and 1973 found no relationship between lunar activity and violence.

Review of New HP BookMisc
HPANA.com has up their review of the new book New Clues to Harry Potter Book V:
The structure of New Clues is straightforward - it analyzes each chapter of Order of the Phoenix in three sections: Frequently Asked Questions, Running Bits (clues derived from JK's wordplay), and Hints. The analysis itself is based on the following four extremely helpful rules regarding JK's writing:
If she reinforces it, she means it (and wants us to remember it).
If she suddenly interrupts something (and never finishes), she's hiding a key clue!
There's no such thing as a coincidence.
Don't take a character's word for it. Two charming corollaries to that last rule:
-Hermione is usually right (except when she gets emotional).
-Ron is usually wrong (except when he makes a joke about it).
Thanks to HPANA for the review!

The San Diego Padres are one of two Major League franchises never to have thrown a no-hitter. On Saturday afternoon, against the Los Angeles Dodgers, they had one working for 8-2/3 innings. There were just two problems:
(1) The Padres had only one hit of their own, and no runs
(2) 8-2/3 innings isn't the same as 9 innings
The Padres went down in the top of the ninth, and then sent Luke Gregerson to the mound in the bottom, with the righty looking to continue the Padres' combined no-hit effort. He struck out Matt Kemp to lead off, and then induced a harmless grounder from James Loney. At that point, there were two down, and none on.
But up stepped Juan Uribe, and after falling behind 1-2, Uribe drilled a high slider over Chris Denorfia's head in left field for a double, and the Dodgers' first hit. And then, five pitches later, Dioner Navarro dropped a single into center to score Uribe and end the game. For 8-2/3 innings, the Dodgers were hitless. And then in the span of six pitches, they picked up two hits and a win.
Prior to the ninth, Aaron Harang, Josh Spence, Chad Qualls and Mike Adams combined to work eight hitless innings, with five walks and seven strikeouts. For the Dodgers, Rubby de la Rosa, Matt Guerrier, Mike MacDougal and Blake Hawksworth wound up winning a combined one-hitter, with four walks and ten strikeouts.
In the Friday series opener, the Dodgers also beat the Padres 1-0.

The Bechdel Test, sometimes called the Mo Movie Measure or Bechdel Rule is a simple test which names the following three criteria: (1) it has to have at least two women in it, who (2) who talk to each other, about (3) something besides a man. The test was popularized by Alison Bechdel's comic Dykes to Watch Out For, in a 1985 strip called The Rule.

Hazy, amber with golden hued body with a single finger head. Aroma is excellent with citrus, sweet caramel malts, earthy hops with a slight smokey note. Very flavorful and smokey. Citrus and earthy hops on a very nice sweet smooth caramel malt background. Medium body ad moderate carbonation. I love when red amber ales are this flavorful and smokey. This is a great beer for the style.

On cask at Flying Dog. I was told that this was a one off experiment by Shane and to call it "Shane's Red". Brewed with Citra hops and Spanish cedar.
Served in my brand new Flying Dog glassware, of course.
The beer appears a bit hazy and yellow to golden hued. The foamy, white head is thick and lasting, coating the glass. The aroma is nice, offering some light citrus, hops, malt and and sweet breads. The flavor takes everything up a notch. Citrus explodes onto the palate with a velvety smooth body. Gotta love cask conditioned ales. Utterly chuggable. I don't detect much, if any, of the Spanish cedar. That said, this beer is fantastic. The other guys that were present with me all agreed that this beer was a gem. By far the best beer I have yet had from this brewery. Maybe we can convince Shane to brew this again.

VIDEO: Church thief caught on camera
Updated 2:20pm Thursday 27th March 2014 in Local News
FOOTAGE of a prolific church thief has been released as part of a renewed attempt to find him.
The CCTV footage, at St Andrew's Church, Abberton, features a man trying to smash open a safe with a hammer and stealing religious artefacts.
More than a dozen churches in north Essex were raided in February and March.
During the theft he takes a statuette of the Christ Child with the Virgin Mary and a bronze ship's bell with the letters SMI engraved on it.
Similar thefts have been carried out over the past month at churches in Stow Maries, Wickham Bishops, Goldhanger, Purleigh and Stock.
Other thefts were also reported in Lexden, Shrub End, Stanway and Copford.
Extra police patrols are being carried out around areas with small rural churches and members of the public are urged to call 999 if they see any suspicious activity around churches.
Anyone who can identify the man in the CCTV footage should contact the investigating officer PC Shaun Hammond on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
Also call in if you have any information about any church items being offered for sale in suspicious circumstances.

- Wondolowski in, Donovan out for World Cup
Landon Donovan sounded more perplexed than angry about a disrespectful tweet posted by the son of U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann shortly after the American star was cut from the World Cup roster.
The tweet by the teenage goalkeeper fueled speculation that Klinsmann and Donovan didn't get a long.
"To be honest, I don't really know his son well," said Donovan, who spoke publicly Saturday for the first time about being cut. "I'm not really sure where that came from."
Donovan, 32, made the comments while addressing his World Cup rejection with reporters in Carson.
Jon Klinsmann, 17, posted a tweet hours after his father announced his 23-player roster Thursday. In it, he misspelled Donovan's name:
The teenager who has orally committed to attend Cal starting in 2015 added four crying face symbols at the end of his post. He later deleted it Thursday night and apologized.
"Yes, I deleted the tweet," wrote Jon Klinsmann, who attends Santa Ana-Mater Dei High. "Yes, I realize it was VERY classless. But again, My sincerest apologies to everyone who was offended."
Jurgen Klinsmann said his son posted the tweet after school while hanging out with friends.
"They just went off on Twitter, not being aware that's actually followed on Twitter," Klinsmann said, adding that his son is a big Donovan fan with the Los Angeles Galaxy's star jersey hanging in his room.
"Obviously as a father you put him in line," Jurgen Klinsmann said Friday. "And he owes Landon a huge, huge apology. That was highly disrespectful, and I think he got the biggest social lesson he could imagine."

Within Temptation Biography
Within Temptation is a band from The Netherlands. Despite being labeled by the media as a gothic metal band, Within Temptation consider themselves "more a symphonic rock/metal band ... we are in my opinion no Gothic band". The band consists of vocalist Sharon den Adel, guitarist Robert Westerholt, Jeroen Van Veen (bass), Stephen van Haestregt (drums), Martijn Spierenburg (keyboards) and Ruud Adrianus Jolie (guitars). Within Temptation was formed in 1996 by Robert and Sharon, after Robert left his previous band The Circle, who then renamed themselves Voyage. The Circle members Michiel Papenhove and Jeroen Van Veen also left to join Robert in his new project. Martijn Spierenburg also left The Circle, and joined Within Temptation in 2000. In 1996, Within Temptation released their Enter demo, and were picked up by DSFA Records. The following year, they released their first full length album, also entitled Enter. This album established them in the underground scene, and led them to play their fourth-ever gig at the legendary Dynamo festival. In 1998, they followed up with an EP, The Dance, and progressed to the main stage at Dynamo. The band returned to university after The Dance, and in 2000 released their breakthrough album, Mother Earth. The second single from the album, Ice Queen, became a #2 hit on the Dutch charts. This was followed by the Mother Earth single, which helped Within Temptation to break through in other European countries, most notably in Germany. In 2003, released another EP, Running Up That Hill, and their first DVD, the Mother Earth Tour, which earned them an Edison Award. In late 2004, the band released their third studio album, The Silent Force. The lead single from the album, Stand My Ground was an instant success, which was followed by Memories and Angels. Within Temptation toured worldwide with The Silent Force, and in 2005, released the Silent Force Tour DVD. In 2006, the bans announced a collaboration with The Chronicles Of Spellborn, an online role-playing game, and unveiled the track, The Howling, to promote it. The Howling also appears on their fourth studio album, The Heart of Everything. It was their first album to be released in the United States, and the band embarked on two US tours in support of the album. The album produced four singles, What Have You Done, a duet with Keith Caputo of Life of Agony, The Howling, Frozen, a charity single to support Child Helpline International, and Forgiven, the promotional single for Within Temptation's live DVD, Black Symphony. Black Symphony was a one-off show featuring the Dutch Metropole Orkest and the Pa'dam Choir, released in September 2008. In 2009, the band announced that they would be taking a short hiatus to write the new album. In a 2009 interview with Holland's Face Culture, Sharon den Adel stated that the album was slated for release in early 2010. In an interview with Metal Ways at Appelpop, guitarist Robert Westerholt stated that the new album was "probably going to be kind of a concept, but it's so early still that nothing is really sure yet. But we're trying to look in that direction." Within Temptation also announced the release of a new live album, An Acoustic Night At The Theatre, featuring the acoustic set from their 2008 Theater Tour. The album also contains the single Utopia, a duet with English vocalist Chris Jones. The single is due to be released on October 23. In addition to their work in Within Temptation, the band have made several notable collaborations and side projects. Vocalist Sharon den Adel has performed duets with After Forever (Beyond Me on the album Prison of Desire), Ayreon (on the album Into The Electric Castle), Aemen (Time, from the album Fooly Dressed), Delain (No Compliance, on their debut Lucidity), Anneke van Giersbergen (Somewhere, on the acoustic album Pure Air) amongst others. Sharon also wrote an performed the Armin van Buuren track In and Out of Love. Guitarist Robert Westerholt played the role of Death on the Ayreon album, Into The Electric Castle. Guitarist Ruud Jolie is currently working on a side-project, entitled For All We Know. Vocalist Sharon and guitarist Robert are also partners outside of the band, and have two children, Eva Luna and Robin Aiden. Ex-members include Ivar de Graaf (drums), Martijn Westerholt (keyboards), Michiel Papenhove (guitars), Jelle Bakker (guitars), Ciro Palma (drums), Dennis Leeflang (drums), and Richard Willemse (drums). http://www.within-temptation.com

North face of Green Eggs and Ham. The route begins at the base of the seam that splits the center of the face. Set up your belay at the top from a natural arch, a large patina plate, and cam under the dike at the top of the route. Descend by downclimbing (5.5 or so) to (or rappelling from the patina plate to) the notch above Pancakes and Cornflakes and walking down the gravelly slope. Alternately, continue to the top of the formation and downclimb a water groove on the east face of the rock/
Route follows the obvious seam up the middle of the face. Start by jamming the seam (good hands) and the pillar leaning against the wall. Or lieback the pillar. From the top of the pillar, it's two or three moves to the crux, a move off of smears and slopey edges to a one-hand undercling in a small pod. From the crux it's another 30 feet of 5.7 or so climbing on small holds to a change in the rock near the top where you can build your belay.
FA was protected with three nuts. Entire climb can be protected with gear up to 1 inch. Bring a #3 Camalot and a lot of slings, static line, or webbing to build an anchor at the top.

The OpenStack project got its own open source Foundation last week. This so-called cloud operating system, launched under an Apache 2 license by cloud provider Rackspace and NASA two years ago, will be governed by an independent organization that bears some similarities to the Linux Foundation.
In fact, Alan Clark, who was just elected chairman of the board of directors of the OpenStack Foundation, also serves on the board of the Linux Foundation and helps oversee the Suse Linux project. And there's another familial resemblance: Just as few would download the Linux kernel from Kernel.org and put it into production, few enterprises are likely to download and deploy the raw OpenStack bits from OpenStack.org.
[ Stay on top of the current state of the cloud with InfoWorld's special report, "Cloud computing in 2012." Download it today! | Also check out our "Private Cloud Deep Dive," our "Cloud Security Deep Dive," our "Cloud Storage Deep Dive," and our "Cloud Services Deep Dive." ]
Instead, vendors will package OpenStack and incorporate it into various products, much as various vendors develop Linux distributions or embed Linux in data center hardware. Canonical, Rackspace, Red Hat, and Piston Cloud already offer OpenStack downloads. And public cloud providers such as HP are launching their own offerings based on OpenStack.
But despite this proliferation, OpenStack remains at a very early stage. There will undoubtedly be exceptions, but among enterprise customers, significant adoption of private cloud OpenStack solutions for production purposes is probably a year or so away.
Risks and rewards
That timeframe points to a stark difference between OpenStack and Linux: The latter had a decade to mature before it was enterprise-worthy. OpenStack is taking shape before our eyes, mainly through code contributions from established vendors. The stakes are very high, because OpenStack provides a management framework for nearly every virtualized resource in the data center.
To me, this breadth -- and the ripple effects of decisions made in code -- make OpenStack a unique experiment with its own special set of risks and rewards.
The main OpenStack reward for customers is indirect: Collaborative development of the core OpenStack bits should shorten the time-to-market for private and public cloud solutions, the adoption of which should increase IT efficiency and reduce costs overall.

Browns RBs Peyton Hillis and Montario Hardesty are active for Sunday's game at Cincinnati after missing multiple games with injuries.
Hillis has missed the last five games with a hamstring injury, while Hardesty has missed the last three games with a calf injury. Hillis is listed as the Browns' first-string tailback, while Hardesty is the second-string tailback.
The Browns' inactives are starters SS T.J. Ward and FB Owen Marecic and reserves DE Jayme Mitchell, OL Steve Vallos, OL Oniel Cousins, LB Quinton Spears and QB Thaddeus Lewis.
The way we see it
The return of Hillis and Hardesty strengthens a Browns running game that already had received a major boost from third-string RB Chris Ogbonnaya, who has played very well of late.

Chadron State lineman hopes to play on Sunday
CHADRON His college football days are over but a Chadron State College standout is expected to have a chance to take his career to another level.
Garrett Gilkey, the Eagles' 6-foot-7, 320-pound offensive left tackle, was visited by scouts from at least 27 of the 32 National Football League teams this fall. Representatives from a couple of other teams have contacted him since the season ended.
"He'll be playing on Sunday next year," says CSC head coach Jay Long, who also coaches the offensive line. "At the very least, he'll be in a pro camp next summer and will have the chance to make an NFL team.
"It's never easy to make a pro roster, but the scouts and team representatives love his size. He's an impressive looking guy and pro teams are always looking for somebody who can play left tackle."
Long says Gilkey's attributes are much more than just his size.
"He moves well and he has outstanding flexibility," Long said. "It's amazing how compact his stance can be. He can get down really low and that helps his blocking."
Gilkey is also strong and fast. He bench presses 500 pounds and has been timed at 5.1 and 5.2 seconds in the 40-yard dash.
He said most of the scouts already had his statistics and they didn't have him do much physically during their visits to CSC, but they interviewed him and watched his game films.
Gilkey is a native of Sandwich, Ill., who played at nearby Aurora Christian High School for Don Beebe, the former Chadron State great and a nine-year NFL wide receiver. He was a three-year starter for the Eagles and earned first-team all-Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference honors as both a sophomore and a senior.
His chances of being a three-time all-conference choice were dashed when he required an emergency appendectomy just prior to the season-opener against the University of Mary his junior season. He also missed the next two games.
Gilkey is trying to make the most of the opportunity that appears to be coming his way.
He has arranged to complete his courses this semester online, has signed with an agent and is spending this week visiting training facilities for pro prospects in Florida.
His agent is Jason Cheyut, a member of the SportStars, Inc., which represents about 130 NFL players, Gilkey said.
One of the training camps Gilkey has checked out is the IMG Academy at Sarasota. It is directed by 2000 Heisman Trophy winner Chris Weinke. Gilkey said he's also looking at the Athletes Performance Academy.
Once he makes the selection, he said personal trainers will work with him on his speed and strength and others will counsel him the best nutrition, "how to say the right thing when I'm interviewed and how to adapt to every situation."
Sportstars will pick up the tab, which will be several thousand dollars, at the training academy he chooses. Gilkey said one session will last about two weeks prior to Christmas and the other will be in January.
Gilkey is also on the watch lists for the Senior Bowl to be played in Mobile, Ala., on Feb. 26 and the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis on Feb.23-26.
Current projections are that Gilkey could be drafted as high as the fifth round.
Speaking by telephone on Saturday, Gilkey said he will always remember his days at Chadron State fondly. He said he considers the past season as a "great one for both me and the entire team," and is appreciative of the help he received from Long and the other coaches.
"He (Long) was very supportive and continually encouraged me," Gilkey said. "He also pushed my name and made sure we had films available when the scouts came around to find out more about me."
Gilkey said he expects to finish his degree in special education by the spring of 2014.

The Tennessee Titans say quarterback Jake Locker suffered a sprained hip during Sunday's win over the New York Jets and will likely miss a few weeks.
In a statement Tuesday, the team called the results from Locker's second MRI encouraging and said no major damage to his hip joint was revealed.
While the area will need time to heal and strengthen, it won't require surgery.
The team said Locker has already begun a rehab routine for both his hip and knee, which he also injured when he went down during a pass attempt in the third quarter of the game.
Prior to the injury, Locker was having arguably the best game of his career. He was 18 of 24 for 149 yards, three touchdowns and no picks.
The Titans and backup quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick went on to defeat the Jets 38-13.Coach Mike Munchak is reportedly talking with the league about some of the hits Locker received from the New York Jets defenders on Sunday.Sources say the league is looking into those hits, but there has been no word yet if any fines will be issued.The Titans will take on the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs Sunday at LP Field. Kickoff is at Noon.

Van arson and criminal damage to car in Redditch
6:00pm Tuesday 11th December 2012 in News
WITNESSES and information are being sought after a van was set alight in Redditch and in another, unconnected incident, a deep scratch was gouged along the length of a car parked in the town.
A white LDV panel van was parked outside Studley Road Social Club in Redditch between 9pm on Friday, December 7, and 9am the following day when it was broken into.
Part of the dashboard was melted when it was set alight, as was a seat in the vehicle. The windscreen was cracked, a loading door ripped off and a Tom Tom sat nav and tools taken from inside. The tools were in a yellow and black toolbox on wheels.
In a separate incident a silver Vauxhall Vectra was attacked in Rookery Close between 3-5.30pm on Saturday, December 8. Damage estimated at £800 was caused when it was scratched from the driver's side front wing all the way down the side of the car to the rear brake light.
Witnesses or anyone with information should contact officers at Redditch Police Station on the non-emergency number 101, quoting incident references 38-N-081212 and 585-S-081212. Details can also be passed anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Messenger : Library Edition
AudioFile Reviews 2005 April/May
Matty came to Village years ago when it was a safe haven. However, sinister changes are taking place. At Trade Mart, the citizens begin trading away their souls for their hearts' desires, and a wall is planned to keep out immigrants. Matty must journey into hostile, malevolent Forest to fetch his friend, Kira, before Village closes its borders. David Morse's smart narration and whispery voice never become overly dramatic. He doesn't attempt to add personality to the characters nor intensity to their plight. This quiet, understated delivery insists the material speak for itself. Happily, Newbery Award-winning author Lois Lowry's storytelling is more than up to the task. Matty's story is as strange as the fantastical Forest and as engrossing as its companion pieces, THE GIVER and GATHERING BLUE. S.J.H. (c) AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
School Library Journal Reviews 2004 September
Gr 6 Up-After many years of living with Seer, a blind old man with the gift of wisdom, young Matty discovers a gift of his own-the gift of healing living things, albeit at great personal cost to himself. The bucolic, democratic life in Village is changing suddenly, with greed, racism, and deceit making their first appearances. Previously good people seem to be trading parts of their deepest selves for foolish things. Forest is becoming hostile if not lethal to anyone who walks there, and gentle Leader is losing his calming influence over the residents of Village. Seer asks Matty to go through Forest and fetch his daughter Kira before Village is closed to any newcomers. On their way back through Forest, Kira and Matty are attacked by Forest in viciously painful ways that are frighteningly portrayed by the author and narrator. Only Matty can save Kira, Leader, and Village. An abrupt conclusion to the story, involving sacrifice for the greater good will leave listeners with many questions. Lois Lowry's use of language and imagery is as always elegant, but the political and religious symbolism weigh too heavily on this tale (Houghton, 2004). David Morse delivers a quietly relaxed reading of the fable, with some characters such as Matty and Seer more effectively voiced than others. Links to the first two books in this trilogy-The Giver (Houghton, 1993) and Gathering Blue (Houghton, 2000) most likely make this recorded book a necessary purchase.-B.

Andrew S. Dember L'79ANDREW S. DEMBER graduated from the Syracuse University College of Law in 1979. While at the law school, he was a member of the Moot Court Board. He is a 1976 graduate of Lehigh University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business and Economics and graduated with High Honors.
Immediately following law school, Mr. Dember completed a two-year term as law clerk to the Honorable Ruth Moskowitz, Justice of the New York State Supreme Court in Brooklyn. For nine years, Mr. Dember served as an Assistant District Attorney in the Kings County District Attorney's Office in Brooklyn. During the final three years of that tenure, he held the position of Supervising Assistant District Attorney in the Homicide Bureau where he supervised 20 trial attorneys and on-going investigations; provided guidance on legal issues and trial strategies; and prosecuted high profile and complex homicide cases.
Since 1991 he has been an Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) in the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, and currently holds the position of Deputy Chief of the Criminal Division. In this position, Mr. Dember supervises the Division on legal, investigative, and trial matters; reviews and approves charges for cases involving, among other things, public corruption, organized crime/RICO, and terrorism. Mr. Dember also actively participates in the training of new attorneys, lecturing on trial practice, the Federal Rules of Evidence, grand jury practice, and investigations. Prior to his current position, Mr. Dember served as Chief of the Public Corruption Unit, where he supervised senior AUSAs assigned to that unit and led major investigations and prosecutions involving complex political, government, and police corruption, criminal civil rights violations, and government fraud.
As both a state and federal prosecutor in New York City for the past twenty-seven years, Mr. Dember has conducted more than 75 jury trials and argued more than a dozen cases on appeal. He has been the recipient of several U.S. Department of Justice awards for a number of the major cases he has prosecuted. Most recently, in 2005, he received the Department's highest award for employee performance – the Attorney General's Award for Exceptional Service – for the case of US v. Ahmed Abdel Sattar, Lynne Stewart, and Mohammed Yousry, for the successful prosecution of Sattar for his role in an international conspiracy, and attorney Stewart and Yousry for their provision of material support and resources in furtherance of that conspiracy. In 2001, Mr. Dember received the John Marshall Award for Outstanding Legal Achievement for Participation in Litigation for the successful RICO prosecution of a notorious and violent narcotics organization based in Manhattan and the Bronx. In 1999, he was awarded the Attorney General's Award for Distinguished Service for the case of US v. Francis Livoti, a successful criminal civil rights prosecution of a highly publicized police brutality case. In 1995, Mr. Dember was awarded the Attorney General's Award for Distinguished Service for the successful investigation and prosecution of the complex and pervasive police corruption scandals in the New York City Police Department's 30th Precinct, involving bands of rogue police officers who were involved in corrupt dealings with local drug dealers, including narcotics trafficking, extortion, and theft.

Is the forum running slow at times, or is it my computer? Sometimes when I click on a post, it takes forever to show up. Also, when I hit the back button, it takes forever to go back, It doesn't happen all the time, but at least once or twice a day.

I have the same problem at times. I suspect others have too. That is why you see a lot of double and triple posts. If a member doesn't see their post right away they click on the submit button again. Every time that button gets clicked it posts again.

Re: Forum Running Slow
It is slow at times, I suspect it is from all the bots that scan for programs such as Google , Bing, etc. I know Dennis has had to limit them a time or two. To see who is on go to the main forum page and scroll to the bottom, it will show who is on at that time.

Re: Forum Running Slow
I have observed much the same thing ... different parts of the day, especially when the bots are active, the forum can be slower than molasses in January. It can be a bit disconcerting. There are other things to take into consideration though... how fast packets are going through nodes, what is the slowest/most congested node between the forum and your IP and of course when was the last time you ran the scans on your own computer just to name a few.
For the most part though, I have found as others have that it is the forum and I assume it is the bots. Maybe not specifically targeted to farmallcub.com but to the host more likely. Either way it is a little frustrating at times.
I have a 30 meg down and 3 meg up broadband connection with no throttles .. and it is difficult to understand at times even though I understand how packets of data travel through cyberspace. Expect it to get worse as the commercialization of the internet becomes more commonplace.

By SHAWN RYAN
---- — PLATTSBURGH — Want to chuck a pumpkin vast distances with a homemade trebuchet?
Here's how: R=V2 sin20/g.
At least that's the formula that has made the students of SUNY Plattsburgh's Physics and Engineering Club perennial favorites at the yearly Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival in Cambridge, Vt.
This year, the students and their mentor, physics professor Dr. Ken Podolak, took second place, following up on 2011's first-place victory.
"I saw a lot of students who wanted to get out and do things, be active," said Podolak, explaining why he formed the club.
The college, he said, has been supportive of the club, providing funding and access to facilities. It has about 20 regular members, with eight to 10 taking part on the pumpkin chucking team each year.
"It's like a family for me," said Dan Stowe, a sophomore physics major from New Windsor. "I can go to meetings and talk to people who share the same interests with me, have the same ideas and think the same way."
This is Stowe's second year in the club but the first time he has actively competed in the Pumpkin Chuckin' contest.
Last year's winning "chuck" was 130 feet. This year, the team was able to amp up its throw to 220 feet, only to take second place.
"The guy who won, he actually watched our video from last year and got some ideas on how to make his even better, and he just edged us out on some small things," Podolak said.
The reason for the team's incredible increase in distance from last year to this time around, according to Stowe, is that they designed a new "floating arm" trebuchet, which offers a better weight-to-throw-distance ratio than other designs.
Typically, the team will build off its design from the previous year, the members adding what they've learned from their own effort, as well as from other competitors and the world of science.
The team members are already considering ways to tweak their design for next year and hopefully bring home the gold once again.
"I don't really want to say more on the design," Stowe said. "But we definitely have an idea about what kind of trebuchet we want to build and how we want to do it."
Pumpkin chuckers take their business seriously.
Podalak is quick to point out that, along with the fun atmosphere of the competition, the Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival raises money for a good cause: the Lamoille Family Center in Lamoille County, Vt.
The Physics and Engineering Club does more than just throw pumpkins in a farm field once a year. The members work on other projects and are always on the lookout for contests. They are currently working on a prototype for a new design of electric car that they eventually hope to enter in the Schell Eco-marathon in Houston.
"We want to build it, so we can test it and make modifications," Stowe said. "Then, after we think the car is complete, we can enter it into competitions."
Podolak sees a simple reason for the success of the Physics and Engineering Club.
"My students are very dedicated. They are incredible workers, doing all this on their own without being paid or anything."
Stowe, though, says it has as much to do with their professor, who is taking their learning out of the textbook, opening it up to the real world and making it fun.
Videos of the Plattsburgh State team's pumpkin-chuck efforts can be found on YouTube or at vtpumpkinchuckin.blogspot.com.

Student profiles
'I chose to study at Deakin because I could sense from the Open Days that the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. Since then it has lived up to my first expectations.'
'Technology is everywhere and I wanted to know how to understand, manipulate and control it - and to understand the machines of the future'
'I wanted the commerce/business aspect to make myself more attractive to the job market, so the double degree was perfect.'
'During my course I had the opportunity to complete an internship at Accenture. During this time, I worked hard to establish myself as a valuable resource within the team and my efforts paid off. At the end of the internship I received an offer to apply for a graduate position within Accenture's security practice.'
'I like the way [the course] constantly challenges me.'
'I learned early on that having the business side to IT would be a big advantage when I was applying to the big companies.'
'I know that IT plays a big role in the modern business world and having IT knowledge would help me in any field I chose to work in when I graduate. The reason why I chose to specialise in the networking and security branch of IT is because I have a passion for the internet and want to work to get the whole world connected.'
'I love Deakin's personalised approach to teaching. In China, there are too many students in each lecture, so it is difficult to get up close with them. At Deakin, lecturers are always there to help you, no matter your circumstances or background.'
'What I enjoy most about uni and my course is the varied units that my course includes. I am able to get a feel for all aspects of games design and development, as well as general information technology areas.'
'What I enjoy most about uni and my course is that everyone is so friendly and the course is very practical. Aside from lectures, all my classes are spent on computers, which makes it a very hands-on learning environment that I really enjoy.'
'The double degree in Information Systems and Information Technology gave me a competitive advantage over other graduates. Most other applicants had either a strong business background or a strong IT background. I was able to demonstrate a depth of knowledge across business and IT.'

2. Decreases pain associated with surgery.

Only give this medication to the pet for which it was prescribed. For long-term use, the goal is to give the lowest dose needed to provide relief.
How does this medication work? Deramaxx is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that works by inhibiting the cell's production of chemicals that trigger inflammation. Arthritis in dogs and other forms of orthopedic and post-operative pain can be relieved with Deramaxx.
What results can I expect? Deramaxx does not cure dog arthritis or other joint abnormalities. It can effectively manage the pain and inflammation associated with your dog's condition. The response varies from dog to dog but can be dramatic. Pain relief can generally be seen within hours to days after administration. Symptoms may reoccur if Deramaxx is discontinued.
What form(s) does Deramaxx come in? scored beef-flavored tablets.

I have a 9-year-old Great Dane and she is doing great since starting on this product. She takes half of a 227 mg tablet a day and it has done wonders for her. She was having a lot of hip pain, but is now her playful self again. The tablets do crumble a bit when cut in half, but if you use a pill splitter it works better. We tried a couple of other meds, but she had some vomiting with them. We have used Deramaxx for roughly a year and she is doing GREAT! I can honestly say it has extended her life for another year and given her quality of life to boot!

Comments about Deramaxx Chewable Tablets For Dogs:
We are using it with radiation treatments to fight soft tissue sarcoma in dog's nasal and throat area. Keeps the swelling and pain down so that he can eat. Human anti-inflamatories like celebrex will cause internal bleeding in pets. Also, this med is combined with a powdered beef broth product, so that it doesn't taste that bad. Break it up, and wrap in a thin meat slices, or toss the pieces in a bowl of warmed meat such as chicken. It costs about [$] per day to treat a 110 pound animal, but it works.

So far this is the best pain relief product I have used for my dog, the biggest drawback would be the cost. But of course, any animal is worth what ever it takes to make them as pain free as possible :=)

Home builder finds a home downtownBy Bruce Edwards
STAFF WRITER | February 11,2013The iconic Gryphon Building has added another new tenant.
Mountain View Modular Homes has opened an office and showroom on the second floor of the office building at the corner of West Street and Merchants Row.
Mountain View Modular Homes specializes in custom-built modular homes, log homes, and garage packages. The company manufactures homes from starter models to custom-designed mansions.
Owner Drew Pierce said after running the business out of his home office, it was time to relocate to a more visible location with a showroom.
Pierce, a third-generation home builder, sells Ritz-Craft homes, a Pennsylvania manufacturer of custom-built modular homes.
He said he fills a niche market for people who want a custom home but dont want a stick built or manufactured home.
Its less expensive than stick building, more expensive than manufactured, Pierce said.
He said Ritz-Craft Corp. has finished homes that start for under $100,000. Pierce said hes currently doing a $300,000 home in Isle LaMotte.
At his showroom in the Gryphon Building, customers can pick out faucets, fixtures, cabinets, lights, carpets, flooring, siding and roofing material.
Pierce said his homes are also Energy Star rated for energy efficiency.
Mike Coppinger, Downtown Rutland Partnership executive director, said while ground floor retail space is visible to the public, the upper floors in the downtown provide an essential mix of services such as law firms, and accounting and insurance agencies.
A lot of those buildings, the majority are filled on those upper floors, Coppinger said. That helps landlords stabilize rents on the first floor.
Coppinger couldnt provide a percentage in terms of occupancy of the upper floors but said it was very healthy.
