After Thanksgiving, Americans will throw out $282 million of uneaten turkey, according to estimates from the Natural Resources Defense Council. If you find yourself with a bounty of turkey or ham left on the table after your Thanksgiving feast, don't just toss it.
Instead, freeze the leftovers in freezer-safe plastic bags to be used later in recipes. Mark the bags with the dates and contents and then rest easy that you are not contributing to an overabundance filling our county's landfills after a day of giving thanks.
If you aren't quite sure how to use that turkey or ham, head to the Internet.
Start with the Food Network and Martha Stewart, but realize that a quick search reveals an amazing number of mouth-watering recipes to get your creative juices flowing. Turkey can be substituted for chicken in many recipes so if you have a favorite chicken enchilada recipe, toss in some turkey instead.
Your family will never know the difference.
I roast a turkey mainly in anticipation of leftovers. What's easier on a busy night of carpooling and kids activities than to toss turkey or ham into a dish that comes together in just minutes, or a recipe that can work its magic in the slow cooker as we scurry around town? Ham finds its way into fettuccine, scalloped potatoes and soup at my house.
Looking for something out of the ordinary? How about trying Indian-Spiced Turkey-Lentil Soup? My family loves fried potato pancakes made from leftover mashed potatoes. And instead of that ho-hum standby, the turkey sandwich, liven things up with the Turkey Reuben from Real Simple.
The Kansas City Star recently featured a family menu made entirely of Thanksgiving leftovers, including pumpkin and mashed potato soup.
Enjoy the holidays and don't stress out about those leftovers. With just a few tweaks, they can make fun family meals for weeks to come.
Do you have a favorite recipe that uses Thanksgiving leftovers? Share to help those struggling under a mountain of leftovers.

As soon as the sun starts to shine people's mood lifts. Not only do they feel better they start to feel more like doing things outside the house. When this happens people start to use their gardens more, go away for weekend breaks, buy new clothes for the new season and dig out their sunglasses.
Let's go outside!
If you are looking for a special gift to give someone then one that embraces the new season is ideal. If you can afford them, then luxury gifts will often be the best received. Examples of these could include garden furniture. Although these are expensive gifts, a new table and chair set for the garden could be a great idea. A reclining chair in the latest modern style would also be a luxurious gift that would also get a great deal of use. Some of the most latest garden furniture includes garden day beds, where you and your loved one can relax in the sun on a large day bed.
Let's go out of town!
A weekend break is amongst the special gifts that people like to receive and isn't always too expensive if planned in advance. A weekend break to the seaside is one idea or perhaps a weekend in a cottage in the countryside? If you have a little more money and like to give expensive gifts then you could book a weekend in a luxury hotel and perhaps include a spa session for you both. If you would like the luxury to continue then why not pre order some beautiful spring flowers to be place in your room upon arrival or other luxurious gifts that you could consider are fine wine and hand made chocolates. There are adult only hotels available too should you prefer a weekend away from the children. If you have time and money a weekend to a European destination is one of the most luxurious gifts you could give someone.
To see and to be seen…
Of course special gifts don't have to be so extravagant. When the sun comes out, so do the sunglasses and could also make a lovely present for someone. The latest designer sunglasses would tick the luxury gifts box but cheaper ones can look just as good and be just as well received. Even children like sunglasses nowadays, which would make an unusual present for someone.
…that is the question!
Luxury gifts can also include watches or clothing. The latest designer watch or spring outfit can make a perfect present. Designer shoes for ladies are also an ideal gift. Again these can be expensive, but if you shop around, especially on the internet you will be able to find cheaper alternatives. Sometimes though it is nice just to splash out on expensive gifts for someone to really make them feel special.

After roughly my 16th radio show over the past few days asking me what the best team in football is, I have decided to take matters into my own hands here.
Yes, I take blame for the first few shows, bringing up the fact that no team is head and shoulders above the other top-tier clubs and that the difference between the one-loss Saints, Falcons and Packers and the zero-win Panthers, 49ers and Lions, respectively, was two points in all three cases (and on the favorites' home fields).
But I started to lose patience when one of those shows that shall remain nameless then went on to ask me — two different times — who the best team was at this point.
The answer? I really don't know.
So I thought I would run through PFW's top five in our power rankings and point out each team's greatest strength right now and also its biggest shortcoming.
Onward …
1. Jets
Strong point: More than the defense, the run game has been shockingly good of late. Of course, running through the Patriots and Bills might be less impressive in retrospect, but it must be noted how well LaDainian Tomlinson is performing and how well the offensive line has rebounded from a slow start.
Achilles' heel: Third downs. On offense, the Jets are 20-of-50 conversions, which is just above the league average of about 38 percent. And that conversion rate has gone up from a nightmarish opener against the Ravens. But defensively, the team has allowed a disappointing 41.8 percent conversions. That's way too high for them, even if Darrelle Revis, Calvin Pace and others have missed time.
2. Packers
Strong point: They control the air. Sure, Aaron Rodgers and the receivers have yet to hum at a Packers-like clip, but it's coming. They are too deep, too talented and too well-run not to get going even better than they have. And on defense, the team has a strong secondary — even with Morgan Burnett out for the year — and a pass rush to match that makes it tough for opponents to throw consistently well. Although I must admit, I am hedging those statements a bit after the past few games.
Achilles' heel: Um, special teams maybe? Sure, their meltdown in Chicago wasn't anywhere close to what the Dolphins suffered through last night. But the Packers' special teams have been bad, make no mistake. So-so return teams and PK Mason Crosby (one missed FG) are the only things that are not putrid right now, but even Jordy Nelson coughed up a kickoff against the Lions that really could have cost them. This is a real crisis area right now. A close second could be the run game.
3. Ravens
Strong point: Whom are we kidding? It's the defense. They've been gashed a couple of times by the run, but overall this group remains playing at a very high level and will be the backbone of the team, no matter what the offense does. Interceptions have been hard to come by so far and shaky special-teams coverage units have hurt field position. But there might not be a better group that exploits weaknesses as well as the Ravens do.
Achilles' heel: Very few contenders get by with a turnover margin — minus-7, worst in the NFL — like the Ravens are at now. They have but two turnovers forced, despite all their defensive execution, and have coughed up the ball nine times (only seven teams have relinquished it more often). Joe Flacco has been more careful since his four-INT game, though, which has helped.
4. Steelers
Strong point: Simply put, they bury your run game and make you one-dimensional on offense. The Steelers might not have the corners to eliminate great receivers, but quarterbacks can't get them the ball if they are under fire all game. The return of S Troy Polamalu has made a big difference, but it's great team ball — orchestrated by Dick LeBeau, naturally — they're playing in Pittsburgh.
Achilles' heel: Some of their passing woes eventually could dissolve once Ben Roethlisberger gets back into the flow, but I am not convinced it's going to be a matter of flipping a switch. I think they'll need time to get him back into the groove of the offense, and it would be smart not to ask too much of him too quickly. The run game remains the bread and butter right now.
5. Saints
Strong point: If you have Drew Brees and good targets, you have a chance. The Saints' scoring might be down, but their efficiency is not too far off last year's pace. Teams playing the Saints this year spent all offseason breaking down the tape looking for weaknesses, and a few small ones have shown up. That said, Brees is operating at a high level and the offense will not be this team's downfall.
Achilles' heel: Statistically speaking, the run game appears to be the biggest problem on paper. But I think it's the run defense. Teams will attack the Saints by running right at them, eating up the clock and wearing down the defense. They are already shorthanded up front and might continue to suffer injuries on that side of the ball with such a physical approach coming from opponents.
It's entirely possible, and quite likely, that two or three teams not on this list will emerge as being among the best teams in the league as we get closer to the playoffs, But for now, this is where we need to start.

Burlington, Vermont - February 2, 2010
Eighteen pending cases against Vermont's Roman Catholic Diocese will be tried together.
Superior Court Judge Helen Toor says it would take too long to try all the cases individually, so Tuesday she ruled that they be lumped into one trial.
Most of the 18 cases are claims from former altar boys at Christ the King church who say that Father Edward Paquette molested them.
Three cases against Father Alfred Willis will also be tried together.
Tom McCormick, the lawyer for the diocese, says he is not sure if a combined trial will be better for his clients, but he is hoping to avoid it through mediation which is scheduled to happen before April 1.
"We intend to make every effort to settle the cases," McCormick said. "If they don't settle then we'll face a joint trial. What exactly that will mean remains to be seen. There's never been anything like that in the state as far as I can see. There have been very few instances of this nationally."
Last week, the diocese reached a settlement with one former altar boy. He was awarded nearly $9 million by a jury in 2008, but the award was under appeal. Part of the settlement allows the diocese to sell its office building and other properties it owns to pay other victims.

A Bio-Psycho-Social Assessment of an Adjunctive Intervention for Youth in Residential Treatment
Rebekah Conway Roulier, Doc Wayne Youth Services, Inc., USA
Theme: Clinical issues
Poster Number: 85
Program ID: POS-2
Presentation: October 4, 2013 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
Room: Napoleon
The Doc Wayne Athletic League considered the life and treatment of the whole athlete during their stay at residential treatment centers. A novel adjunctive treatment for youth in residential treatment was considered in respect to its impact upon physical and emotional health, social cognition, life skills, emotion regulation, risk and reward behavior, and stress. The youth involved have significant at-risk behavior, notable mental health issues, marked affect dysregulation, and histories of exposure to extreme stress. Most are in the custody of protective services and all are provided an education through their treatment center. The Doc Wayne Athletic League ("The League") is a sports-based intervention which incorporates principles from trauma-informed care and positive youth development, drawing from a trauma-based components model (Attachment, Regulation and Competency); a stabilization model (Dialectical Behavior Therapy); and an attachment-based interaction model (Parent-Child Interaction Therapy). This intervention takes the approach of incorporating subjective and objective indicators of outcome among non-participants, first-time participants, and multiple-season participants. Overall, the outcomes are unambiguously positive, with youth showing improvements across several domains of functioning. Effect sizes are consistent with the effect sizes of individual psychotherapies tested using Randomized Clinical Trials.

INDIANAPOLIS — For 24 minutes, Duke played Louisville to an even draw. Both teams had elaborate, technical game plans to prevent the other from doing what they do best offensively. Both teams made adjustments, and the score was knotted in a dead heat.
Then everything started to go wrong for Duke, and it spiraled out of control.
The Cardinals took control early in the final half in their 85-63 win to earn the last spot in the Final Four. The Blue Devils went more than six minutes without a field goal, and Louisville went on a 20-4 run during that stretch.
I believed with everything I had that we were going to win the whole thing, said Mason Plumlee, who finished with 17 points and 12 rebounds. All it takes is one game and youre out.
Louisville guards Peyton Siva (16 points) and Russ Smith (23 points) were unstoppable, driving into the lane at will. With the score tied at 42-42, the duo scored six straight points.
They did a great job using the screens and hitting the open man, Quinn Cook said. Smith is probably the best player in the country off the ball screen. Siva did a good job in transition and finding the open man.
Duke had been successful in forcing the Cardinals toward the baseline off of screens in the first half and early in the second. But Rick Pitino instructed his team to set screens higher and for his post player to set low screens on Plumlee and Ryan Kelly, preventing them from getting up the court and picking up the ballhandler.
At halftime, he was actually telling us how to adjust, and I was trying to cut him off like, Coach, theyre playing us like this, Siva said. Hes like, can you listen to me? I got this.
Adding to the defensive issues for Duke was Louisville center Gorgui Dieng, who started hitting long jump shots from the free throw line and near the top of the key to complement Siva and Smiths drives inside. The 17-footer from the 6-foot-11 Dieng gave the Cardinals a 13-point lead with 11:04 left on the clock.
Through the first 16 minutes of the second half, Duke was 6-of-21 (28.6 percent) from the field. The offensive struggles began to feed into the defensive troubles, Plumlee said. Prior to the dry spell that began with the score tied 42-42, the offensive had been clicking at a high rate, with Seth Curry scoring eight points in just under two minutes and Mason Plumlee dunking over a flopping Dieng.
Kellys presence made breaking Louisvilles press significantly easier for Duke, but foul trouble limited his minutes while the game was still competitive. He picked up his third foul with 8:09 left in the first half and played just eight minutes in the opening period. The Cardinals had aimed to get him in foul trouble, and it worked. They had also aimed to limit Curry, who had zero first-half point and finished with 12 on 3-of-9 shooting from the floor.
The first half, though, was defined by Louisville guard Kevin Wares gruesome compound fracture in his right leg. Ware jumped to defend a Tyler Thornton 3-pointer and collapsed in a heap. Lying on his back right in front of the Louisville bench, his right tibia was sticking through his skin.
After an eight-minute delay, Ware was wheeled off the court in a stretcher with a medical device protecting his shin, protruding from his leg, covered by a towel. Louisville led 21-20 at that point, with 6:39 left in the half. The Cardinals went into the break with a 35-32 edge.
We did feel like we were in good shape, Plumlee said.
But Pitino made the key defensive adjustment by moving the screens up the floor, essentially the checkmate in the high-level coaching chess game. The athleticism of Siva and Smith was too much, especially with Kelly in foul trouble, Curry bottled up, and Cook and Sulaimon shooting 4-of-21 from the floor.
Ive been doing this for a long time, Krzyzewski said. Man, they were good. Bottom line, theyre really good.
See the box score from the game
Russ Smith was voted the most valuable player of the Midwest Regional all-Tournament team. Louisville's Peyton Siva, Gorgui Dieng and Duke's Mason Plumlee and Seth Curry made up the rest of the team.
Louisville did not cut down the nets in Lucas Oil Stadium. The Cardinals didn't cut them down when they won the Big East championship in Madison Square Garden, either. They're waiting for Atlanta.
When Chris Collins shook hands with Louisville head coach Rick Pitino after the game, he said, "win the whole thing."

Priests for Life hold noon prayer vigil outside Kermit Gosnell trial
As closing arguments are underway in the trial of West Philadelphia abortion provider Kermit Gosnell, pro-life organization Priests for Life is holding a noon prayer vigil outside the Criminal Justice Center at 13th and Filbert streets.
"Let me assure you of one thing," Priests for Life national director Father Frank Pavone wrote of Gosnell in an open letter posted on the group's website
"He is the rule, not the exception, in the abortion industry. He, along with every abortionist in America, deserves to be tried for crimes against humanity and should be behind bars."
Pavone said he and his followers will be praying "tirelessly for the hastening of that day."
Priests for Life is also encouraging anti-abortion advocates to watch a documentary Fox News will be airing this Sunday, May 5 at 9 p.m.
Pavone said the film, titled "See No Evil – The Kermit Gosnell Murders," details "a very important trial that raises many key issues in our national debate over abortion."
A number of pro-life activists and organizations have been using the Kermit Gosnell trial to argue abortion is a brutal act that should be banned.
Pro-choice proponents, conversely, have been pointing to the alleged "house of horrors" clinic in West Philadelphia as an example of why abortion should be legal and well-regulated.

Research from UEA shows less risk of dementia in over 65's
New research from the University of East Anglia has found that cases of dementia in the over 65's has fallen by 1.8% in the last 20 years.
The study compared data from two decades ago to the present day and found there is now a smaller risk of anyone over 65 years of age developing dementia.
But because of a growing population of much older people, it doesn't mean the number of cases will fall. In fact, they will keep rising as the population does.

ARCADIA - Rio Hondo Prep's girls basketball team cruised into Saturday's semifinal matchup against visiting Valley Christian Academy coming off double-digit wins in its first three rounds of the CIF-Southern Section Division 6 playoffs.
It took overtime, but the fourth-seeded Kares punched their ticket to next week's finals by slipping past the Lions 49-47 in front of a standing-room only crowd.
The scored was tied at 47 when Alexis Parker was fouled by Lions defender Ellie Hedlund with 17 seconds remaining in the extra period.
Parker sank both free throws and a last-second Valley Christian desperation shot to tie it missed, giving the Kares a championship matchup against Providence Hall.
"Alexis is a very good free-throw shooter," Kares coach Joe Parker said.
"Especially down the stretch, she really is one of our leaders."
Valley Christian finished with a 22-3 record, including a perfect 10-0 in the Coast Valley League.
Rio Hondo Prep was led by Madison Loomis, who scored 15 of her game-high 19 points in the first half.
Parker contributed 14 points points and the Kares improved to 14-11.
SIERRA CANYON 77, FLINTRIDGE PREP 20: Cheyanne Wallace led the way for the top-seeded Trailblazers (21-9) by scoring 24 points, including 14 points in the third quarter in the Division 5AA semifinals.
Zoe Goss and Kennedy Burke combined to score 32 of Sierra Canyon's 53 first-half points. Burke finished with 21 points and Goss had 16.
"It is my first year coaching here. They haven't been to the finals since 2008," Canyon coach Alicia Komaki said. "So we are excited to get there. But we have bigger goals. Being there isn't good enough for us."
Maya Okamoto led the No. 4 Rebels (19-8) with 10 points.

ODU holds Football 101 for international students
(WVEC-TV, September 6, 2012)
It's football season again.
Old Dominion University's Intercultural Relations Office kicked off its Football 101 seminar. The idea is to explain the rules of the game to students who want to understand the uniquely American sport.
40 students learned about offensive lines and terms like "first and 10" from grad students Stephen Villanueva and Charles Walls.
"I didn't understand everything and I was really paying attention because we don't have this game in my country," said Sara Bouazzaoui, who's from Morocco.
Having some understanding will come in handy if the students want to go to any of the ODU football games this season. (More)
Study on proposed Va. Beach arena mentions AHL hockey
(The Virginian-Pilot, September 7, 2012)
Part of the business case for proposing a $350 million arena near the Oceanfront is that it would host 82 professional sports events.
Those games are projected to draw annually two-thirds of the venue's estimated 1.3 million sports fans and concertgoers and to constitute the bulk of ticket revenue, according to the economic impact study released last week.
As proposed, an NBA team would play half the pro sports games, 41, at the 18,500-seat arena. Sources have said the target tenant is the NBA's Sacramento Kings. ...
James V. Koch, the Old Dominion University economics professor who did the economic impact study, declined to comment on why research was done into hockey, the only minor league sport mentioned in his study.
"All I did was use the numbers they gave me," he said, referring to the city, its arena project consultant and Comcast-Spectacor, the company leading the private group that wants to operate the arena.
The Koch arena study is part of the nearly $700,000 the city's economic development authority has spent on consultants for an arena project. The authority signed a $31,240 contract with a Richmond company for a broader economic impact study of an NBA team and its headquarters on Virginia Beach and Virginia. The authority also hired a Texas company to help negotiate the terms of a management agreement for the arena. That contract is for a minimum of $30,000. (More)
Smithfield man compiles Romney book
(Suffolk News-Herald, September 7, 2012)
In the midst of national convention season - Republicans last week in Tampa and Democrats this week in Charlotte - the art of politics is in full swing.
Truth is often a casualty.
Depending on the messenger, President Obama is either plotting to replace America's proud system of private enterprise with government handouts, or striving to rebuild a middle class shattered by eight years of President Bush.
Mitt Romney either wants to outsource as many jobs as possible to China and float the federal government on the stock exchange, or draw on his vast experience as a CEO and governor to kick-start the sputtering economy.
A Smithfield native has published a book attempting to cut through the murky waters - at least on the conservative side.
Smithfield High alumnus Phillip Hines, 24, graduated from Old Dominion University with a political science minor, and now lives in Virginia Beach. (More)
Is the Energy Boom a Mirage?
(The New York Times, September 4, 2012)
By Steve A. Yetiv
THE United States is experiencing a boom in oil and natural gas production - one that many people, including Mitt Romney, see as a game-changing, tectonic shift in our energy picture. But while the boom is real, the benefits are less than meet the eye.
The United States produces 1.6 million more barrels of oil each day now than it did in 2008. That's a significant increase in a world that consumes around 89 million barrels per day, with the United States accounting for about a quarter of that amount. In addition, America's net petroleum imports have fallen from 60 percent of total consumption in 2005 to 42 percent today. This is partly because of new discoveries and the reclamation of "tight oil" using hydraulic fracturing technology that shoots pressurized liquids into compact, underground rock formations - the same technology driving the natural gas boom.
But what does this oil boom really mean? Will it deliver lower oil prices and enhance energy security, which is what most Americans want and many may expect?
We should not be overly optimistic. ...

Port strike looms on Va. economy
(WAVY-TV, September 5, 2012)
A port strike may be looming for Virginia after talks between the International Longshoremen's Association and the U. S. Maritime Alliance fell through.
While port managers say they are getting as much cargo through the ports as possible before the October 1 strike deadline, there could be significant economic impact if a strike were to happen.
"It could cost us more for products in the stores because of the lack of sale if the supplies are disrupted," Old Dominion University economist Dr. Vinod Agarwal said.
Labor could also feel an effect.
"You will see for example some individuals laid off, some individuals will have shorter hours to work. But I think you'll see a compensating factor in the sense the month of September there should be longer hours," Agarwal said.
Agarwal said September is normally a peak season for overseas shipments. (More)

ODU presents study to VB council
(WAVY-TV, September 4, 2012)
Professors from Old Dominion University presented a sea level rise report to Virginia Beach council members Tuesday evening.
"In the long run, there are going to be more flooding events," ODU professor Larry Atkinson said. "You're going to see more flooded roads, parking lots, a rainstorm, its high tide, the water has no place to go like we've seen for the last couple of weeks."
Council member Glenn Davis said the study is a good way to look to the future.
"What this study is doing is looking out 50 years down the road and if we can expect problems and what we can do now to start preparing for them," Davis said.
ODU conducted the study with help from NOAA. WAVY.com reported last month another rising sea level report conducted by the University of Virginia, which said that Virginia Beach will likely lose 43,000 acres of land over the next 100 years.
Oceanographers from around the world will meet in Virginia Beach in October to discuss how to handle rising sea levels. (More)
ODU Young Democrats head to NSU to rally with US President
(Democratix, September 4, 2012)
At a time when there has been rumor that the youth vote won't mount up to that of the presidential campaign of 2008, Alex Jones of the Old Dominion University Young Democrats says that he is hopeful in regards to youth voter turnout for the 2012 presidential race. Alex along with 35 ODU Young Democrats made their way to Norfolk State University to rally with t President Barack Obama in an effort to remain in the White House.
Terrell Kingwood, President of ODU Young Democrats explained that while most of our organization is back in classes we have other events slated which will bring out all the members of the Young Democrats to stand in support of President Barack Obama.
"Virginia and the country have been moving forward, creating jobs, providing expanded healthcare access and pursuing goals of freedom and equality under President Obama," "We cannot lose those gains so we are on the phone, knocking doors, registering voters and talking to our friends to make sure we re-elect our President in November."
Virginia will always be a critical state and the issues have never been clearer for Virginian voters - including: the economy, education, transportation infrastructure, healthcare access and federal government investment. Focusing on these priorities under President Obama has made Virginia stronger; Romney-Ryan plan to destroy the policies making Virginia stronger and a better place to live. (More)
Big question in storms: Stay or go?
(The Virginian-Pilot, September 1, 2012)
Go or stay?
That's the choice Gulf Coast residents faced this week as they braced for the onslaught of Hurricane Isaac.
Hampton Roads residents can relate. They've experienced the same quandary repeatedly over the years as one hurricane or another drew a bead on the region from the Atlantic.
But what really goes through their minds as they weigh the pros and cons? Why do some decide to blow town while others stay put, come hell or high water?
Joshua Behr thinks he knows.
Or at least, he's getting a clearer picture than has been available before. And some of what he's learning runs counter to conventional wisdom.
Behr and his research team at Old Dominion University have been quizzing thousands of local residents, trying to get inside their heads and ferret out information that will help emergency planners as they prepare for the big storms to come.
They're finding myriad reasons why people tough it out at home, despite the planners' best efforts to get them to leave. ...
For Behr, a political scientist based at ODU's Virginia Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Center in Suffolk, the research strikes close to home. He has family ties in New Orleans, which faced Isaac's wrath this week, seven years to the day after being battered by Katrina. (More)
A bad deal coming on Virginia's port
(Editorial, The Virginian-Pilot, Sept. 2, 2012)
State officials, led by Gov. Bob McDonnell and his transportation secretary, Sean Connaughton, are approaching the finish line in their quest to overhaul operations at the Port of Virginia. They appear unwilling to let anything slow them down.
So it was last month, when McDonnell appeared before a legislative advisory committee to batter the nonprofit company created 30 years ago to operate the state's terminals. Citing facts and figures from the port and others along the East Coast, McDonnell described an inefficient operator that lagged behind its competitors and held Virginia back from reaching its economic potential. ...
Other factors demand far more public discussion as well, including the state's record of drawing manufacturers and distributors to support growth at the port. The Port of Savannah, which has weathered the recession better than most, has reaped the benefits of investment and foresight, as economist James Koch recently noted.
Koch, a former president of Old Dominion University, has signed on to advise Virginia on the port proposals. In a presentation last month to lawmakers, he pointed out that Savannah has about twice as many big-box distributors as Hampton Roads. (More)
NCAA president to deliver speech at ODU next month
(The Virginian-Pilot, September 2, 2012)
NCAA president Mark Emmert, the man who levied harsh penalties against Penn State in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal, is coming to Old Dominion to speak next month.
ODU president John Broderick said during an interview on the school's radio sports network prior to the Monarchs home opener that Emmert will visit ODU at his invitation. Emmert will speak Tuesday, Oct. 23,at 7 p.m. at the Constant Center. Details will be announced later.
Emmert hit Penn State with a $60 million penalty, a ban on postseason bowl games for four years, the loss of 20 scholarships and the vacating of all wins dating to 1998.
Penn State's players were free to transfer immediately, and several did.
The Nittanly Lions were upset by Ohio, 24-14, on Saturday.
Emmert was named president of the NCAA in 2010. He came to the NCAA from his alma mater, the University of Washington, where he was the president. (More)
An important partnership for Virginians
(Opinion, The Virginian-Pilot, September 4, 2012)
Virginia's bioscience community is thriving.
Just this summer, Professor Stephanie Troy of Eastern Virginia Medical School received a prestigious Clinical Scientists Development Award from the Doris Duke Foundation. This three-year grant totals nearly half a million dollars - and went to just 16 medical researchers in the whole country. Dr. Troy will use the grant to further her cutting-edge work into biopharmaceutical vaccines for polio.
Nearby Old Dominion University is home to 26 dynamic medical research centers currently conducting some 400 projects. ODU invests $88 million every year into new research lines and regularly generates breakthroughs in bioscience products.
According to recent studies, Virginia's biopharmaceutical sector supports more than 76,000 jobs and $13.7 billion in annual economic output.
Even with this great news, the commonwealth's bioscience community has the opportunity to expand its reach, thanks to a new trade agreement currently under negotiation with eight major nations in the Asia-Pacific. (More)
Both off-shore drilling, wind farms could be spoils of election
(RenewablesBiz/The Daily Press, September 2, 2012)
Whether it's drilling off shore for oil and natural gas, developing wind farms off the coast or a combination of the two, energy policy proposals from candidates of both parties seeking federal office could be a boon for Hampton Roads.
At first glance the Democratic and Republican parties seem miles apart when it comes to federal energy policy.
President Barack Obama has blocked drilling for natural gas and oil off Virginia's coast with a moratorium in place until 2017. As part of his re-election campaign he is pushing Congress to extend the wind production tax credit due to expire at the end of the year.
GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney said he will allow drilling in Virginia's coastal waters in an effort to make the nation energy independent by 2020. He has called for letting the wind production tax credit expire and allowing the free market to make alternative energy sources such as wind and solar power profitable. ...
Romney specifically mentions off-shore drilling in Virginia in his energy plan. But Steve Yetiv, professor of political science at Old Dominion University, said reliance on fossil fuels off the state's coast should not be seen as a quick fix as it faces objections from the Department of Defense and raises questions about environmental concerns.
He said studies need to be done as to how much natural gas is really accessible in Virginia's coastal waters, and added that the recent "revolution" in natural gas has made the industry less profitable. A 30-year-old study shows that the region off Virginia contains roughly 6.5 days' worth of the nation's oil consumption and around 11 days' worth of natural gas. (More)

Pakistan disaster group to help poor families in Bradford
8:00am Friday 7th February 2014 in News By Claire Armstrong, City Hall Reporter
A charity set up to help the victims of flooding in Pakistan is now offering hot meals to deprived families in Bradford.
It has taken action after it found needy children are going to sleep hungry and are being sent to school without breakfast.
Councillor Naveeda Ikram, co-chairman of Bradford Unites In Disaster, said the stories she was hearing were "heartbreaking".
She said: "I am talking to people on the ground and people are struggling. The cost of living is going up every day and people are finding it extremely hard. We've heard about children going to sleep without having a proper meal.
"We are talking to teachers and they are telling us children are coming out without breakfast. It is heartbreaking."
Bradford Unites In Disaster has now teamed up with the Karmand Community Centre in Barkerend Road, Bradford, to set up the Karmand Kitchen, which will open once a week to offer free hot meals to the area's most deprived individuals and families.
Project bosses say anyone is welcome, whether they live on the streets or not, as no-one should have to go to bed hungry.
Coun Ikram (Lab, Little Horton), a former Lord Mayor of Bradford, said Bradford Unites In Disaster had originally been set up in response to floods in Pakistan in 2010, but they now felt aid also needed to be handed out locally.
She said: "Now we see that help is needed at home as well so we thought now we would channel our energy and focus here, as we see the rate of homelessness grow and the demand for a warm meal increase."
The kitchen will run from the Karmand Community Centre each Wednesday from 6pm to 8pm. Coun Ikram said they had deliberately chosen Wednesdays to avoid a clash with existing foodbanks and soup kitchens which operated on other days.
The project will rely on donations of food and cash from local people and businesses, and donations are already coming in.
Mohammed Shakeel, chairman of Bradford Unites In Disaster, said: "Bradford people are caring and known for their generosity and I know they'll come together to make this project a success."
The Karmand Kitchen opened for the first time this week but is looking for more volunteers to help out.
For more information on volunteering or donating to the project, phone Mr Shakeel on (01274) 669593 or e-mail email@example.com.

Packers starting ROLB Erik Walden will be charged with a misdemeanor disorderly conduct after a domestic dispute with his live-in girlfriend. Walden pleaded not guilty Wednesday morning and will return to court Dec. 27. If convicted, Walden faces up to 90 days in jail and a $1,000 fine.
After leading the Packers with eight tackles in their Week 12 victory over the Lions on Thanksgiving Day, Walden spent the Thanksgiving weekend in jail after his girlfriend was treated for injuries at a hospital. He was released the following Monday on $1,000 bond. Brown County District Attorney John Zakowski said Walden's girlfriend told police they were arguing and that he pushed her, but she later changed her story to say she hit him first.
Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said Walden's situation is "under review" by the team and the NFL. In last Sunday's game against the Giants, Walden registered four tackles, one tackle for loss and one QB hit.

Marketing company hosts small-business workshop at Guildhall
12:00pm Friday 20th June 2014 in News By Charlotte Neal, Reporter
SMALL businesses from across Winchester made their way to the Guildhall to hear expert advice on how to be successful.
Marketing company Vistaprint was the host, and 84 local businesses attended ranging from florists to web designers.
The 'Vistaprint Night School' on Wednesday, June 11, saw expert speakers take to the stage, including founder of organic chocolate empire Green & Black's, Jo Fairley, who gave business owners her advice.
She said: "The best characteristic for any aspiring entrepreneur is 'sticktoitness', which means sticking with it through adversity. I know how it feels to start and grow your own business and for me, the risk of not doing it was far greater than the risk of doing it."
There was also the opportunity to network, and take part in one-on-one sessions.
Vistaprint teamed up with Winchester Business Improvement District (BID), and the event comes following research with PopUp Britain, which revealed that 93 per cent of small business owners would benefit from free marketing advice.
It also found that 68 per cent would like access to experts.
Steve O'Brien, global PR director at Vistaprint, said: "Our aim with the Vistaprint Night School initiative is to inspire small business owners and offer tangible advice through experts who understand the peaks and troughs of starting and running your own business. It was a real pleasure to bring this concept to Winchester and we were overwhelmed with the tenacity of the small business owners in this area."

The Department of Natural Resources will continue to maintain the database, and develop support and funding for institutionalizing the Washington Cadastral Framework. The database integrator position is not yet funded or staffed at this point. I will continue to devote 30% of my time to the Washington Cadastral Framework through the end of the year. Carrie Wolfe will also continue to support this and other framework projects as the Framework Coordinator.
On the web site, there are several additions. The data transfer standard has been clarified and revised. The ArcView Internet Map Server application has been revised with more detailed data sets following the revised data transfer standard. There are still some data errors, but many have been fixed. In July, GCDB codes and additional corner information will be provided. The FTP download files have been built in the form of the data transfer standard files. The download files will be regenerated once per month. Example AML programs have been added to show the framework file creation, extraction, and validation processes from the integration pilot project. The file creation program has been revised according to the current data transfer standard.
There are some new capabilities available for partners to access data directly through an ArcInfo or ArcView application. Partners can connect directly to the framework database for the latest data. To access the database, you will need to provide the connection server: framework.dnr.state.wa.us, the SDE database instance: esri_fwprod, your identifier, and your password. These identifiers and passwords are new. If you do not hear from me with this information over the telephone, please contact me so that these can be assigned.
