Friday after Ash Wednesday
February 19, 2010
Matthew 9: 14-15
The Gospel for this Lenten Mass comes to us from Saint Matthew and is that portion concerned with the question of fasting.
This particular test is timely in view of the fact that the Church has just entered the Lenten Season in which the practice of fasting has such a prominent part.
In our time there is a renewed interest in fasting quite unrelated to Lenten penance. Today many people fast for medical or cosmetic reasons. Nevertheless, fasting as a practice of atonement and reparation for sin retains its original purpose and efficacy.
We live in a culture and society in which virtually anything we want is available to us. This situation often leads to our having more than we need. From time to time, it is necessary to step back and realize that we must reduce our consumption and use, not only of food and beverages, but also of various consumer products which may be good in themselves but distract us from what is essential to personal and common good.
With assistance from the Holy Spirit, we must once again follow the advice of Christianity and learn to read the "signs of the times."
In doing so, we will understand that it is necessary to extend fasting beyond just food and beverages to now include a "fast" from and a moderation in our use of certain consumer products. A personal and hones examination of conscience will help each one of us to determine the choices which should be made in this regard.
May the evangelical simplicity lived by Christianity in the Gospel encourage us in this effort.

Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle Arthur Jones could make his return to the lineup on Sunday, but Ravens head coach John Harbaugh listed the veteran defensive lineman as questionable for Week 2. Jones missed the season-opener against the Denver Broncos as he was dealing with a heart issue, but a return against the run-heavy Browns would be a large help for the Baltimore defense.
Running back Bernard Pierce, who has been limited in the week's practices with a thigh injury, is also listed as questionable, but he is expected to play.
The intrigue for the Browns will be the impact that first round pick Barkevious Mingo has if he's able to make his NFL debut as expected after being cleared this week. After suffering a collapsed lung during the preseason that sent him to the hospital, Mingo has been on the sideline for the last month.
With four sacks in the season opener, the Browns looked plenty capable of getting to the quarterback. One extra talented rusher will be certainly be welcomed, however, when the team travels to face the defending Super Bowl champion on Sunday.

A Political Ad in Sweden Causes a Stir and a Rift
by Charles Lemos, Thu Sep 02, 2010 at 04:43:38 AM EDT
Swedes will head to the polls on September 19 to elect an new Riksdag. Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, leader of the governing four party coalition Alliance for Sweden, and his right-wing Moderate Party is facing a tough election battle against the opposing Red-Greens coalition led by Mona Sahlin, leader of the Swedish Social Democratic Party. Recent polling shows the current government leading narrowly, vying to become only the second centre-right government to win re-election. The Alliance for Sweden came to power in September 2006 after winning a seven-seat majority in the 349-seat Riksdag, Sweden's parliament. It is only the third right of centre government in Sweden since 1936.
Approximately 4 percent of the population of Sweden is Muslim but it is growing rapidly. In numbers that translates to 300,000 out of a total population of 9.2 million. Muslim migrants to Sweden hail from all over the Islamic world but predominately come from Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Palestine. There are also large number of Somalis and Eritreans as well as a sizable pocket of Sri Lankan Muslim refugees.
The rise in Islamic immigration, however, has led to an unprecedented rise in crime in the country in particular against women. The number of rapes in Sweden has tripled in just twenty years with 85 percent of assailants being Muslims. On New Year's Eve in 2004, two Swedish girls were attacked and beaten by four Somali immigrants, a story that made worldwide news for the brutality of the attacks. In 2007, another Somali man slashed a woman at a discotheque as he yelled out that Swedish women were whores. Perhaps these are isolated incidents but the nature of the attacks left a deep impact on Sweden.
Earlier this year, racial tensions boiled over leading to two nights of rioting in the Rinkeby and Tensta suburbs of Stockhölm. In Malmö, Sweden's third largest city, perhaps 15 percent of the population is now Islamic. And over the past few years, Malmö has become the epicenter for anti-Semitic violence in Europe that has forced many in the once 800 strong members of one Scandinavia's oldest Jewish communities to leave.
From an August 15, 2010 story in the Hearst newspapers:
Finally, the shouts of "Heil Hitler" that frequently greeted Marcus Eilenberg as he walked to the synagogue were too much. Fearing for his family's safety, Eilenberg moved himself, his wife and two children to Israel. "I didn't want my small children to grow up in this environment," Eilenberg said. "It wouldn't be fair to them to stay in Malmö."
Sweden, a country long regarded as a model of tolerance, had been a refuge for Eilenberg's family. His paternal grandparents made a home in Malmö in 1945 after surviving the Holocaust. His wife's parents came to this port city from Poland in 1968 after the Communist government there launched an anti-Semitic purge.
But the combination of a rapidly growing Muslim population living in segregated conditions and widespread anger at Israeli policies and actions has been toxic for local Jews. As in many other European cities, Jews in Malmö report being subjected increasingly to threats, intimidation and actual violence as stand-in targets for Israel. Malmö, Sweden's third-largest city with a population of roughly 294,000, including fewer than 800 Jews, reached a turning point of sorts in January 2009 during Israel's military campaign in Gaza. A small, mostly Jewish group held a demonstration billed as a peace rally but seen as a sign of support for Israel.
The demonstrators were attacked by a much larger mob of Muslims and Swedish leftists. Police seemed unable to stop the violence.
"I was very scared," recalled Jehoshua Kaufman, a Jewish community leader. "Scared because there were a lot of angry people facing us, shouting insults and throwing bottles and firecrackers at the same time. The sound was very loud. And I was angry because we really wanted to go through with this demonstration, and we weren't allowed to finish it."
Alan Widman, a non-Jewish member of the Liberal Party who represents Malmö in Parliament, said simply: "I have never been so afraid in my life." The demonstrators were eventually evacuated by the police.
A bomb exploded on the steps of the Malmö synagogue shortly after 2 a.m. July 23. The police classified the explosion as an act of vandalism, crimes that receive low priority and are rarely solved, according to a Swedish police official. Anti-Semitism in Europe has historically been associated with the far right, but the Jews interviewed for this article say the threat in Sweden now comes from Muslims and from changing attitudes about Jews in the wider society. There are an estimated 45,000 Muslims in Malmö, about 15 percent of the city's population. Many of them are Palestinians, Iraqis and Somalis, while others came from the former Yugoslavia.
According to Bassam Tibi, professor emeritus of international relations at the University of Göttingen in Germany and author of several books on the growth of Islam in Europe, Muslims form a significant subset of this problem. "The growth of the Muslim diaspora in Europe is affecting the Jews," said Tibi. He said many European Muslims think "every Jew is responsible for what Israel is doing and can be a target."
In Malmö, this population's role is seen as especially significant. Most of Malmö's Muslims live in Rosengard, the eastern part of the city, where the jobless rate is 80 percent. Satellite dishes dot the high-rise apartments to receive programming from Al Jazeera and other Arabic-language cable networks that keep Malmö's Muslims in constant touch with Arab-Israeli developments.
Sylvia Morfradakis, a European Union official who works with the chronically unemployed, those who have been without work for 10 to 15 years, said the main reason why 80 percent to 90 percent of Muslims between the ages of 18 and 34 can't find jobs is because they can't speak Swedish.
The plight of the Jews worries Annelie Enochson, a Christian Democrat member of Parliament. "If the Jews feel threatened in Sweden, then I am very frightened about the future of my country," she said in an interview. Because he is the most visible Jew in Malmö, with his black fedora and long beard, Malmö's only rabbi, Shneur Kesselman, 31, is a prime target for Muslim anti-Jewish sentiment. In his six years in the city, the Orthodox Chabad rabbi, an American, has been the victim of more than 50 anti-Semitic incidents. He is a gentle man with a steely determination to stay in Malmö in spite of the danger.
The rabbi recalled the day he was crossing a street near his house with his wife when a car suddenly went into reverse and sped backward toward them. They dodged the vehicle and barely made it to the other side of the street. Newspapers report the number of anti-Semitic incidents in Malmö doubled from 2008 to 2009. Meanwhile, Fredrik Sieradzki, spokesman for the Malmö Jewish community, estimates that the small Jewish population is shrinking by 5 percent a year. "Malmö is a place to move away from," he said, citing anti-Semitism as the primary reason. "The community was twice as large two decades ago."
The synagogue has elaborate security. Its glass is not just bullet-proof, say Jewish communal officials; it's rocket-proof. Guards check strangers seeking to enter the building. Some Jewish parents try to protect their children by moving to neighborhoods where there are fewer Muslims in the schools to minimize confrontations.
Six Jewish teenagers interviewed reported anti-Semitic abuse from Muslim classmates. According to the victims, none of the perpetrators were arrested, much less punished. Many Jews fault Swedish police for not cracking down on anti-Semitism. Most hate crimes in Malmö are acts of vandalism, said Susanne Gosenius, head of the police department's newly created hate crime unit. These include painted swastikas on buildings. According to Gosenius, police do not give priority to this type of crime. "It's very rare that police find the perpetrators," she said.
Members of Parliament have attended anti-Israel rallies where the Israeli flag was burned while the flags of Hamas and Hezbollah were waved and the rhetoric was often anti-Semitic, not just anti-Israel. But such public rhetoric is not branded hateful and denounced, said Henrik Bachner, a professor of history at the University of Lund, near Malmö.
"Sweden is a microcosm of contemporary anti-Semitism," said Charles Small, director of the Yale University Initiative for the Study of Anti-Semitism. "It's a form of acquiescence to radical Islam, which is diametrically opposed to everything Sweden stands for."
Founded in 1988, Sverigedemokratern, or Sweden Democrats, is a Swedish political party that describes itself as a nationalist movement. Recent polling suggest the party may break the four percent threshold required and claim representation in the Riksdag for the first time as anti-Muslim sentiment grows.
The ad, shown above, was rejected as hate speech by a Swedish TV station and that has sparked tension between Sweden and neighboring Denmark. That story from Der Spiegel.
Danish politicians are in an uproar over democratic freedoms across the water in Sweden, ever since a Swedish TV station rejected a political ad on Friday because of alleged hate speech.
The ad by the anti-immigrant Sweden Democrats (SD) party shows a retiree hobbling forward while Muslim women in burqas charge past to win money from the national budget. "On Sept. 19," their ad declares, referring to the date of upcoming national elections, "you can choose to cut money from immigration budgets, or from pensions."
The Swedish commercial television network TV4 decided not to air the spot because of concerns it would break the country's hate-speech laws. A private radio station banned an audio version of the same ad on Monday.
Now leading politicians in Denmark -- where immigration controversies over the last 10 years have sharpened the tone of political debate -- are crying censorship. Some prominent Danes even want the Council of Europe to send election observers to Sweden.
The likelihood is that Islamic immigration and the role of Islam in Western society is going to remain a contentious political issue in Europe. In the United States that debate is now beginning to take shape. Judging by the venom spewed by likes of Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer, it's a debate that we are ill-prepared for.

Your experience may include drafting and/or arguing various motions, preparing for and participating in discovery matters as well as all pre-hearing conferences. Depending on the case you may gain the experience of working with various damages and supervisory experts who would be working with the IAC on arbitration matters. As a member of the IAC Team you will strive to develop essential lawyering skills, substantive legal knowledge, and real-world experience with real clients. Clinic students will at all times be supervised by the supervising attorney.
- Credits: 5 graded credit
- Time Commitment: The time commitment averages 17 hours a week, including case work, supervision, and the seminar though at times may require more effort depending on the work load.
- Recommended: Professional Responsibility
- Selection Criteria:
1. Fourth-year part time students and Third-year full time students.
2. Second-year full-time students.
- Certified Legal Intern Certification Required: No, but recommended.
For Potential Clients:
In the event that individual investors have a dispute with a stockbroker, they often fare better when represented by an attorney with experience in securities arbitration. Arbitration is the most widely used means of resolving disputes in the securities industry. In most cases, attorneys represent all the parties on both sides of a dispute. However, investors with relatively modest claims often cannot find an attorney to represent them on a contingency basis and they often cannot afford the hourly rate for representation.
This program aims to fill the gap in legal representation for investors. These clinics will enable supervised law students to provide legal assistance and other advice to investors at little or no cost.

Shangri-La Hotel, Paris is proud to announce that its two gastronomic restaurants have been awarded stars by the 2012 Michelin Guide. With the publication of this year's edition, Shangri-La Hotel, Paris becomes the only luxury hotel in France to boast two gastronomic restaurants recognized by the Michelin Guide, a feat made all the more exceptional by the fact that this distinction comes less than one year after each restaurant's opening.The French gastronomic restaurant L'Abeille, under the direction of Executive Chef Philippe Labbé, has been awarded two stars and the Chinese gastronomic restaurant Shang Palace, headed by Chef Frank Xu, has received one star. This recognition by the Michelin Guide confirms each Chef's distinctive and passionate culinary signature, each as technically accomplished as it is unique.Opened in March 2011, L'Abeille ("The Bee" in French) is named after the Bonaparte imperial insignia. Under the leadership of Executive Chef Philippe Labbé, this gourmet destination restaurant has won acclaim for bold and colourful renditions of French classics such as the signature blue lobster prepared two ways, a dish that is reborn anew each season, accompanied for example by black truffles, pistachios or beets. Foie gras marbled with nougat and sea bass coated in sesame and poppy seeds and roasted with fennel on a teppanyaki have also become house favourites. Head Sommelier Cédric Maupoint's wine selections and desserts by Pastry Chef François Perret complement Chef Labbé's remarkable seasonal creations.For Chef Labbé, receiving two Michelin stars culminates a year of milestones and accolades. "I often say that I was born with a Michelin Guide tucked under my arm, because it was my parents' guide and it was they who instilled in me a passion for great cuisine," he says. "These two stars are recognition of our desire to always reach higher, a trait that our Restaurant Director Christophe Kelsch, and I as well as everyone here at Shangri-La Paris strive to cultivate every day."Opened in September 2011, Shang Palace is the first gourmet Chinese restaurant in the French capital and marks the European debut of the group's signature restaurant. Directed by Chef Frank Xu, whose brigade includes four Cantonese sous-chefs, Shang Palace quickly established its place on the Paris gastronomic scene for its traditional and authentic dishes. Chinese classics such as roasted whole Peking duck served two ways, crispy and wok-fried with lettuce, the colourful Lo Hei salmon and Beggar's Chicken, which is roasted in a lotus leaf and cooked in a clay crust, are among his signature dishes.Chef Xu takes pride in receiving his first star. "It is a great honour to see Chinese cuisine recognized in this way, and Paris is an exceptional setting for allowing the world to discover it. I would like to share this distinction with all the staff at Shang Palace, the kitchen brigade and dining room staff, which is directed by Nancy Zhang with the assistance of Christophe Wong. They are wonderful ambassadors for the Shangri-La Hotel and Resorts' philosophy of hospitality." It is worth noting that Shang Palace is the only authentic Chinese restaurant in France to receive a Michelin star, a remarkable accomplishment for an establishment that has been open less than six months.Fresh ingredients of the highest quality are the shared medium to showcase these two extremely refined and complex cultures and cuisines. Thanks to the talents of Executive Chef Labbé and Chef Xu, dining at Shangri-La Hotel, Paris is truly a voyage of the senses.About Executive Chef Philippe LabbéOriginally from the Champagne region of France, Philippe Labbé joined Shangri-La Hotel, Paris as Executive Chef in 2009. Prior to that he had spent six years as executive chef at Le Château de la Chèvre d'Or Hotel in Eze, France, where he received two Michelin stars. Chef Labbé won his first Michelin star at the Chateau de Bagnols, in the Beaujolais region, in 2001.Known for his technical precision, creativity and passion for Asian culture, Chef Labbé has a virtuoso's flair for blurring the lines between traditional and modern cuisine, creating new tastes and flavours while respecting the quality and provenance of produce.As Executive Chef of Shangri-La Hotel, Paris, Labbé oversees the hotel's culinary offerings at the restaurants L'Abeille and La Bauhinia as well as Le Bar, banqueting services and in-room dining.About Chef Frank XuChef Frank Xu is the son and grandson of chefs. He is a native of Shenzhen, near Hong Kong, a region renowned for its mushrooms, which he excels at preparing. When Xu joined the Shangri-La Hotels & Resorts, in 2001, he already had 18 years of cooking experience, having joined his father in the kitchen at the age of 14. Before arriving in Paris in April 2011 to prepare for the opening of Shang Palace – an event that marked his first trip to Europe – Xu had been the chef at the Shangri-La Hotel, Beihai since 2009.

Potsdam, NY, Oct 13, 2009 — Deep African beats and environmental activism make a special appearance in Potsdam this week. Toronto-based band Mr. Something Something is playing at La Casbah Moroccan restaurant Thursday night at 8:30 pm. The band's music is rooted in Afrobeat.

Jul 16, 2008 — Cellist Jonathan Tortolano returns to his home state Saturday for a recital at the Commmunity Church in Stowe (noon).

In Toronto, Two Cultures Collide
by Brian Mann
Jun 09, 2006 — The arrest of 17 Muslim men and boys in a Toronto suburb on terror charges has triggered a new debate over Canada's approach to immigration. Tolerance and multiculturalism are mainstream values in Canada, especially in liberal Ontario. But some Canadians -- including members of the Muslim community -- worry that a growing number of immigrants don't share common values with their fellow citizens. Brian Mann reports from Toronto.

Rough Water for New Fast Ferries
Dec 01, 2004 — The "Spirit of Ontario" has been tied to its dock in Rochester since the ferry company suspended service in September after less than three months of daily trips to Toronto. Mayor William Johnson says meetings this week are aimed at convincing the city council and Rochester's state Legislature delegation that quick action is needed on his plan to save the ferry. The Rochester-Toronto boat is one of two high speed ferries that began operations on the Great Lakes this year. As the Great Lakes Radio Consortium's Chuck Qirmbach reports, the other ferry had a better first season. Go to full article

If there is one thing that reassures the Longs, it's the sunlight factor: A combination of congressional interest and pressure from lawyers in the concussion litigation means the NFL is operating under a level of scrutiny it never previously experienced. "The elephant in the room is talked about now," Diane says.
In 2009, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell faced a scathing House Judiciary Committee hearing in which Rep. Linda Sanchez, D-Calif., described the league as intransigent on concussions and safety issues and compared it to tobacco companies that insisted there were no ill-health effects from smoking. The accusation galvanized the NFL into major reforms.
In a speech to the Harvard School of Public Health last fall, Goodell described a "relentless focus" on player safety and enumerated measures by the league "to take the head out of the game." The NFL Kyle will play in has new practice rules, issued in 2011, aimed at reducing the impacts and wear and tear on players. The Bears will be allowed to put Kyle through only one fully padded practice per week. The two-a-days that tortured his father have been abolished. Also, Kyle will play an on-field game with vastly different rules than his father played under. Two years ago the kickoff line was moved five yards forward to reduce high-speed collisions, resulting in a 40 percent reduction in concussions on kickoffs, according to the league's figures. This fall, a new rule will forbid running backs and tacklers from lowering their heads and using the crowns of their helmets.
Many former players have expressed concerns that the new measures might water down a physical game, and it remains to be seen whether the NFL's culture and practices can really be altered.
The NFL Kyle enters has placated Congress by spearheading a lobby effort that resulted in 48 states and the District of Columbia passing laws ensuring youth football players are cleared by a licensed health care expert before returning to play. It also has launched the Heads Up program, a partnership with youth organizations to teach safer tackling, which Howie and Diane Long have signed on to.

Juvenile Justice
'Poor little rich boy,' 16, gets 10-year probation in DUI crash that killed 4 people
Posted Dec 11, 2013 3:45 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
A 16-year-old driver has been sentenced to 10 years of probation by a Texas juvenile court judge after pleading guilty last week to drunken driving and intoxication manslaughter concerning a June chain-reaction accident he caused that killed four people.
The youth, who is not identified because he is a juvenile, also pleaded guilty to two counts of intoxication assault, concerning two passengers riding in the bed of his pickup who were critically injured (one is paralyzed and communicates by blinking). The defendant will be held in detention in Tarrant County while a potential treatment program is arranged for him, the Star-Telegram reports. His blood-alcohol level after the crash was 0.24 percent, three times the legal limit for an adult.
In a controversial Tuesday ruling, State District Judge Jean Boyd rejected a call by state prosecutors for a 20-year prison term and said it would be better for the teen to receive expensive residential treatment in California that his wealthy parents have agreed to pay for. The program, which can cost $450,000 annually, is intended to address what a psychologist described as a family situation in which the teen had money and material possessions but little parental guidance, stunting his emotional growth, the newspaper recounts.
A Dallas Morning News Opinion Blog post derided the judge's "poor little rich boy" stance and questioned, as other critics have also done, why the standard of justice seemingly may be different for those with money.
Assistant district attorney Richard Alpert prosecuted the case along with Riley Shaw, and they said they are very disappointed. He argued in closing that the teen, if he remains protected by his family's wealth, could be involved in another tragedy, the Star-Telegram reports.
However, attorney Scott Brown, who represented the defendant along with Reagan Wynn, said his client could have been out in two years if he had gotten a 20-year prison term. The judge "fashioned a sentence that could have him under the thumb of the justice system for the next 10 years," Brown said.
If he violates his probation, the teen could be required to serve out his 10-year prison term.

Team O-C finalises GT deal
2:19pm Thursday 27th March 2014 in Sport By Stuart Amos
New Malden's Tom Onslow-Cole has agreed a one-year deal to pair up with KPM Racing team-mate Paul White in the 2014 British GT Championship this summer.
The 26-year-old and his more senior partner White have helped their team to two podium finishes – including one class win – in as many 24H Series outings so far this year.
"I really feel that the time is right for me to go and explore GT racing," said Onslow-Cole, who quit the British Touring Car Championship earlier this year "It's got huge appeal right now and I don't think this move will come as a shock to many.
"Paul and I have already competed in some endurance racing events together and we have proved to be a really strong pairing."

A 10-month-old accidentally locked himself inside a hot car, and his mom says a 911 dispatcher didn't immediately send help.
Tucson's leash laws may come under new scrutiny, the first time in years.
The law, which is 24/7 in Tucson, is described as rigid.
It says animals, excepting service animals, inside the city limits, must be leashed.
Violators are assessed a $225 fine and a misdemeanor citation.
The city and county provide a half dozen dog parks where the dogs may be unleashed, but some complaints is they are remote in some cases and inconvenient.
While Reid Park is centrally located, Christopher Columbus Park on the west side can be hard to get to.
A pet owner who takes the bus, has a double whammy.
Most dogs are prohibited on buses, so getting to a dog park can be more than inconvenient, it can be impossible.
"I've been hearing from a lot of people who want to take good care of their pets, who aren't near any of the available dog parks," says Tucson city council member in Ward III, Karin Uhlich.
She says the people are asking whether the city may be able to find a way to open certain parks at certain times for people to unleash their dogs "to catch a frisbee or chase a tennis ball."
She has asked the Parks Commission to study the issue which is will begin next week.
She says it wouldn't hurt to try a pilot program "and we can we tried and it didn't work. But what if it does work."

Our Fellows
One of the highlights of the Entomological Society of America's 56th annual meeting, held Nov. 16-19 in Reno, was the presentation of the Fellow awards.
This year two of the 10 recipients came from the University of California faculty--or more specifically, from UC Davis.
Entomology professor Michael Parrella, associate dean of the Division of Agricultural Sciences, UC Davis College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and a former chair of the UC Davis Department of Entomology, and professor Frank Zalom, an integrated pest manageament specialist, former director of the UC Integrated Pest Management Program (16 years), and a former vice chair of the Department of Entomology, received the honors.
Fellows are selected for their outstanding contributions in entomological research, teaching, extension or administration, said ESA spokesperson Richard Levine. Up to 10 entomologists from among the 6000-member organization are singled out for the annual award.
President Michael Gray presented the awards.
As Lynn Kimsey, chair of the UC Davis Department of Entomology and director of the Bohart Museum of Entomology, said: "These are highly prestigious awards, granted only to 10 or fewer entomologists every year. Michael Parrella and Frank Zalom are carrying on our department's tradition of excellence and commitment." Eight other UC Davis entomologists have received the honor since 1947.
The Zalom and Parrella accomplishments are many. The agricultural community and the academic world are quite appreciative of their work.
This was a highlight not only of the ESA meeting, but of their outstanding careers.
A toast to professors Parrella and Zalom!

Matthew Little was a well-known and respected civil rights leader whose words and actions helped heal decades-old divides, and many are remembering his legacy after he died of complications of pneumonia.
"I call Matthew sort of 'the quiet giant' who could communicate without anger and help people understand what they needed to do to get the rights that our ancestors intended us to have," Dr. Josie Johnson, of the University of Minnesota, said.
Yet, the Twin Cities pioneer may never have made such a big local impact if it hadn't been for a simple coin flip to decide whether he would move to Minneapolis or Denver after WWII. Little wanted to escape the discrimination he had faced in the south, but he found that even in the land of 10,000 lakes, he couldn't avoid it.
Whether he was meeting politicians, marching on Washington, or indulging in his beloved sport of tennis, family members tell Fox 9 News the fight for civil rights was never far from Little's mind.
"Daddy believed in service and believed in us helping one another," Little's daughter, Kenshasha Kambui said.
For Little, the struggle for equality was a personal one. He was denied a job as a Minneapolis firefighter because of his skin color. Later, he testified in a lawsuit that prompted the department to hire 20 minority firefighters.
As the president of the Minneapolis NAACP, he spent decades championing equal rights in housing, employment and education.
"He was acting out the tradition of African American people. That was a part of his DNA, we could say" Johnson said. "He worked hard for that."
Johnson helped Little organize a contingent of Minnesotans to travel to the nation's Capitol for the March on Washington in 1963 to hear Dr. Martin Luther King's most famous speech.
As a member of the Electoral College 40 years later, Little cast his vote for the man he believed fulfilled Dr. King's dream -- the country's first African American president, Barack Obama.
"You felt like you wanted to jump up and shout," Little told Fox 9 News after the election. "I never thought it would happen in my lifetime."
Even though he retired in the early 90s, Little stayed active by reminding the next generation to preserve the rights he and others worked so hard for while inspiring others to keep working toward equality in all things.
"I want them to remember a kind and humble man who loved humanity and especially loved black people," Kambui said. "He loved African Americans and he fought and worked for us to be our best."
Little is survived by his wife, Lucille, and 5 children. His funeral is scheduled for Saturday morning at the Shiloh Temple in Minneapolis.

The government, not Defense Minister Ehud Barak, must make the final decision on
whether Ariel University Center can become a university, Education Minister
Gideon Sa'ar said on Monday.
After nearly two months of deliberation
since the Council for Higher Education in Judea and Samaria granted Ariel
University Center full university status, Barak wrote a letter to Prime Minister
Binyamin Netanyahu recommending that the decision be made after a Supreme Court
ruling on the matter.
Since Ariel is in the West Bank, which is under IDF
authority, OC Central Command Maj.-Gen. Nitzan Alon must sign the document
making Ariel a university, and may only do so after receiving instructions from
"This is a transparent trick by Barak, which is meant to delay the
recognition of Ariel as a university," Sa'ar said.
According to Sa'ar, it
is likely that the Supreme Court would wait for Alon's signature before ruling,
and the government, not Barak, should tell Alon what to do.
chairman Ze'ev Elkin (Likud) said that Barak is using his power illegitimately,
and that the defense minister may have breached the coalition agreement. As
such, Elkin added, Barak should not be surprised if other coalition partners no
longer feel obligated to him in votes that are important to his Independence
Tzipi Hotovely (Likud), co-chairwoman of the Knesset Caucus to Turn
Ariel into a University, said Barak behaved outside of his authority.
long as there is no security issue, Barak cannot make the judgment, and doing so
for political gain and sabotaging decisions of those authorized to do so is
anti-democratic," Hotovely said.
She called for Barak to take care of
defense and leave higher education alone.
MK Alex Miller (Yisrael
Beytenu), the second chairman of the Knesset caucus, also accused Barak and
Independence of breaking coalition agreements.
"The defense minister used
his authority, the IDF and the OC Central Command improperly in order to promote
his political opinions," Miller said.
"He is making a mockery of the
prime minister, the Council for Higher Education in Judea and Samaria and
thousands of students."

It has made a splashy commitment to brain research, with a $30 million gift to the National Institutes of Health and another $100 million pledged in concert with the NFL Players Association. Also, the sidelines Kyle stands on will have access to new technologies aggressively enlisted for player protection, including iPads for medical staffs. Instead of salad bowls for helmets, the league is testing helmets and shoulder pads with "accelerometers," sensors that can measure the impact of a hit.
In short, the league Kyle Long is entering will have better medicine, better rules, better technology. "Better awareness," Howie says. "The league has done some great things in terms of — as best you can within a game of inherent dangers — making the game as safe as possible."
But Kyle Long's version of the NFL is not completely free of the past.
Even as league executives promise to safeguard the health of the next generation, they are disputing the problems of previous ones. Sanchez does not believe the NFL has addressed its issues voluntarily or wholeheartedly. "I wouldn't say the NFL has turned over a new leaf and is completely embracing responsibility for this," the congresswoman said.
In January the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health wrote a fact sheet for former NFL players notifying them that they were at increased risk of brain and nervous system disorders. A NIOSH memo obtained by The Washington Post shows that someone from the NFL's Head, Neck and Spine Committee tried to persuade the government agency to remove a reference to chronic traumatic encephalothapthy, a degenerative disease similar to Alzheimer's that researchers at Boston University have found present in 34 of 35 deceased NFL players whose brains were donated for study. In the memo, the NFL representative objected to the use of the term CTE because it would "give it an epidemiological validity that doesn't yet exist." NIOSH declined to alter the fact sheet.

Bournemouth scout leader appointed National Commissioner
2:00pm Wednesday 5th February 2014 in News
A BOURNEMOUTH scout leader has been appointed National Commissioner for the Scout Section.
Paul Stevens, who runs the 1st Wessex Scout Group, was appointed by the Brotherhood of British Scouts.
Paul has a long history of scouting experience and recently formed a traditional-style scout group, which is not tied to the Scout Association.
He said: "We offer traditional scouting, we follow the original programme as set out by Baden-Powell. There are those who feel scouting needs to move forward and those like myself who feel we've lost some of our original values along the way. We're not in competition, we're just offering an alternative."
The 1st Wessex Scout Group meets at Moose Hall in Malmesbury Park Road. Paul is also looking to form a Beaver colony for six to eight year olds this Easter. For more information email scouts@ 1stwessex.org

Career Contract Lawyer
In the following years, professors urged her to consider law, and in 2012, she graduated from the University of Richmond Law and passed the bar exam. Today, she actively practices in the contracting department of a corporate bank.
Allison can attribute her initial thoughts of becoming a lawyer to Dr. Ray Legg and Col. Ron Petitte. A summer internship at a small firm in Richmond gave her the chance to shadow a lawyer, and consider what it meant to be a Christian in the field of law. She recounts the support of her professors through the process of planning her future. When communication professor Michael Palmer first heard that she was thinking about becoming a lawyer, he took Allison down to the local courthouse in Dayton.
"We sat through a session of court, and on the way back, talked about Biblical justice, and that's when I started thinking about how maybe I could be a Christian and could practice law," she said. "And Col. Petitte really walked me through all the steps toward law school."
After passing the LSAT, Allison was accepted into the University of Richmond Law. When she thinks of law school, her carrel immediately comes to mind.
"Everyone gets assigned a carrel in law school – it's essentially an assigned desk – and you spend a lot of time studying there, such as studying for eight-hour finals. When your entire grade rests on one exam, there's lots of stress," she said. "While you do study all semester, class is more of a discussion back and forth. You spend the majority of your time reading cases in preparation for discussion. You've got to know the facts and holdings of certain cases, and know the answers when the professor calls on you using the Socratic Method."
"My first day of law school, I was called on to brief one of the most difficult civil cases," she said. "I shook the whole time!"
Now that law school is behind her, Allison spends her days immersed in contracts, negotiating terms and conditions, drafting contracts, and going through "the entire process to put a contract together with any vendors my company might need."
"It's perfect for me – I get to work with words," she said. "I draft, edit, and argue with people over words. I told Dr. Legg just yesterday that I had a discussion with my boss about where to place a comma – for 30 minutes. It really brought me back to Advanced Grammar with Dr. Impson."
Allison still keeps in touch with Dr. and Mrs. Legg, "her second family," and the kindness and graciousness of professors who welcomed her into their lives and took an interest in her own stands out among her memories of Bryan.
"Dr. Hollingsworth reached out to me when my dad passed away right after the bar exam – that meant a lot to me. Bryan is very academically rigorous, and it teaches you how to think," she said. "But the professors are what makes Bryan truly unique."

The Ninth District Court of Appeals has ruled that the Medina County Court of
Common Pleas cannot issue a lifelong ban to a Florida man from entering the
state of Ohio.
According to court documents, George Mose, of Bradenton, Florida, drove to
Brunswick, Ohio with plans to kill a woman he was previously involved with.
Police later found Mose in a motel room and he was charged with two counts of attempted murder and one count of attempted aggravated burglary.
As part of a plea agreement, Mose pleaded guilty to all three counts and
"agreed never to return to the State of Ohio during his lifetime other than for
parole requirements." The trial court accepted the agreement and sentenced Mose
to three years of prison.
Mose filed an application for delayed appeal, saying the common pleas court did not provide him with the proper post release control terms. He also claimed the trial court "lacked subject matter
jurisdiction to accept his guilty pleas because his actions did not constitute
an 'attempt' to commit murder or burglary."
"We agree that Mr. Mose's lifelong
banishment from the State of Ohio is contrary to law … While we understand that
Mr. Mose agreed to this sanction, the trial court was without authority to
impose a punishment which is not authorized by statute. As such, we must vacate
only that portion of Mr. Mose's sentence," wrote Judge Carla Moore in the appeals court's unanimous decision.

Freeholder Democrats flourish in Bergen
For a party that has been on the short end of a 5-2 minority for the past two years, Bergen County's Democratic freeholders got a lot of mileage out of their two votes this year.
Freeholders David Ganz and Joan Voss wound up in the majority on several major issues by joining with some of their sometimes divided Republican colleagues.
Consider the following votes:
* The two Democrats combined with two Republicans in a controversial attempt by the board in March to appoint its own auditor.
* Ganz and Voss joined with three Republicans in August to introduce an ordinance that would have dissolved the County Police and fold it into the Sheriff's Office. They also were in the majority on putting the question to the voters.
* When Ganz introduced a measure in September that would have narrowed an existing pay-to-play law that limits campaign contributions by contractors doing business with the county, he found support from Voss and two other Republicans to pass it.
As it turned out, all four measures were opposed and eventually overturned by County Executive Kathleen Donovan, a Republican. Donovan won court battles blocking the first three votes, and she vetoed the pay-to-play changes.
But each vote showed how the Democrats were able to take advantage of splits among the GOP freeholder majority.
Ganz said getting more leverage out of the Democrats' minority status was not something he had in mind when the year began. Rather, he said, it was something he learned as a kid: play well with others.
"The only way someone in the minority can effectively do their job is to be soft-spoken, well-spoken and make certain that when you reach across the aisle, it's for things that matter and not for things that don't," Ganz said.
Adam Silverstein, a consultant who worked on both Ganz's and Voss's campaigns, said the bipartisan votes also reflect the two Democrats' experience. Voss served eight years in the state Assembly before becoming a freeholder in January 2012. Ganz is now the longest-serving Democratic freeholder in recent memory after serving 10 years, Silverstein said.
Freeholder Chairman John Mitchell, a Republican, said both parties tried to be bipartisan where possible.
Mitchell said one of the votes he was most proud of this year was on the budget, which passed 7-0. He said County Treasurer Al Dispoto later told him that it was the first time in more than 25 years that a politically divided Freeholder Board approved the budget by a unanimous vote.
Mitchell quipped that he was glad Dispoto told him that after the vote, adding that otherwise he would have felt too much pressure. He also said it was "healthier" for the board to have votes that were not strictly along party lines.
Working wedge issues
Republican Freeholder Robert Hermansen agreed that the budget was one area where freeholders from both parties were able to find consensus by going through the document line by line.
But on the three split votes, Hermansen said the Democrats were able to find wedge issues within the Republican Party.
"Not only did [the Democrats] get mileage, but my party got taken," said Hermansen, who found himself in the minority on the auditor, police consolidation and pay-to-play votes. He also lost a bid for a second-term.
Hermansen, who served in the minority for his first year as freeholder, said Democrats had their differences when they controlled the board, but they were less public about it. "If the Democrats disagreed, they disagreed behind closed doors," he said. "They'd fight like cats and dogs behind closed doors, but when they came in, they voted as a majority."
When Freeholders-elect Steve Tanelli and Tracy Silna Zur join the board in January, Democrats will have a 4-3 majority and control for the first time in two years.

The undergraduate teaching major prepares students to teach physical education from pre-kindergarten through grade 12. The program emphasizes such topics as fitness and wellness development and assessment, motor development, anatomy/physiology, scientific techniques in observing and analyzing skill performances, as well as a thorough preparation in teaching methods.
Most semesters students participate in practicum experiences with Pre K-12 students. The use of technology in physical education is another area of emphasis. The program has high expectations for our students and expects them to be engaged in the major while becoming expert teachers at all levels and in all contexts.
The Ball State Physical Education Teaching Major Program provides an outstanding preparation for students as evidenced by a passing rate of 100% by our students on the National Teaching Exam (PRAXIS II).

Washington Redskins linebacker London Fletcher is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Washington Redskins wide receiver Pierre Garcon has a ruptured ligament in the bottom of the second toe on his right foot.
London Fletcher will be meeting with a neurologist due to balance issues.
Pierre Garcon's injury could be worse than previously reported, as the Washington Redskins' wide receiver may have a torn tendon that could keep him sidelined for the team's next two games.
The Washington Redskins are expected to sign Chris Cooley after cutting him earlier in the season as they deal with an injury to starting tight end Fred Davis.
One of the NFL's iron men is banged up with a hamstring injury.
Fred Davis tore his Achilles tendon on Sunday and will reportedly be out for the year.
Fred Davis got hurt in the first quarter and was helped off the field.
Giants running back will play, Redskins wide out will not on Sunday.
The Bills and Redskins will be handing over some cash to the NFL for misreporting injuries.
