Petition to fire Ray Giacoletti
Ray Giacoletti inherited one of the most elite basketball programs in the American west and in two years he has completely dismantled the rich history that makes up Utah basketball. Gone are the days of conference championships, deep NCAA Tournament runs and legitimate national championship contention. In its place, we have a Utah basketball team that has lost to Southern Utah, Colorado and Albany -- all at home. It\'s time we let Ray Giacoletti know that we will not sit idly by and watch him pillage this program of its rich tradition. Let Dr. Chris Hill know it\'s time for a change and that Utah basketball needs to restore the success that made it the 10th winningest program in college basketball history.

High winds see increase in 999 calls to police
5:30pm Wednesday 12th February 2014 in News
CHESHIRE Police are experiencing a high level of demand as a result of the high winds battering the country.
A large number of 999 calls have been received as people report trees down and road disruption.
Police are advising the public only to ring 999 in an emergency - to ensure those that need an urgent response can get through.
An emergency would include a situation where there is a threat of harm or a threat to life, a crime is in progress, or police assistance is required immediately.
Non emergency calls should be made using 101.
The high winds are expected to peak in Cheshire around 6 pm this evening.
A number of roads have been closed, and this includes the Thelwall Viaduct in both directions.
Motorists are advised to allow more time for journeys as roads may be congested as a result of closures or diversions.
The Highways Agency is providing regular updates on key road closures via twitter and their website, and you can keep yourself updated on local closures through local traffic bulletins.
Supt Beverley Raistrick is overseeing the police response to the extreme weather.
Supt Raistrick said: " Police advice is to be mindful of the unusually high winds that Cheshire is experiencing, and take action.
"This may be delaying a non essential journey to another day, or considering your route home from work - is it the right route for today, or should you consider an alternative?
"Similarly, make sure that you have some basic essentials in your car should you be delayed - this could be a fully charged mobile phone to let people know you are delayed but safe, a blanket, or a bottle of water.
Cheshire Police is working closely with our partners to do as much as we can to keep the communities of Cheshire safe - however, we need the communities to work with us too."

A steep overhanging corner near the top of the mountain. This small area hosts some short but great climbs. Although hard to find, you will know it when you see the very overhanging hand cracks. Situated between the wafer and skyline on the spare rib decent trail, it is a heck of a hike, but well worth it for the pristine bouldery hand cracks. If you are slinging the tree at the top make a very long anchor to reduce rope drag.
Getting There
Same approach as Spare Rib and The Wafer then continue farther south and uphill. It is effectively on the "back" of the buttress, the corner faces the south east. If you follow the trail past songline and down it will be just next to the trail and very obvious. It is just off of the spare rib decent trail.

Gloucester Daily Times
---- — The lights had returned to most Cape Ann homes by Thursday night after a nor'easter whirled through the area overnight Wednesday and throughout much of the day yesterday.
But before it checked out, the storm hit Cape Ann with driving rain and sustained winds of nearly 35 miles per hour, and gusts that pushed 50 miles per hour or higher. It cut the power to 3,000 Cape Ann customers at its peak Thursday morning, knocking out 1,600 homes and businesses and other buildings in Gloucester, including the West Gloucester fire station, and killing electricity to another 1,400 in Essex.
National Grid had all but 380 of those customers back up by late Thursday afternoon. But the nor'easter — coming 10 days after Cape Ann's brush with superstorm Sandy last week — kept Gloucester's police, firefighters and Public Works crews busy with downed trees and sparking power lines.
"It's been basically the same thing as last week, only less intense," said Police Chief Leonard Campanello, noting the storm triggered somewhere between 50 and 100 storm-related calls over the last two days.
Police were responding to reports of downed trees and power lines as early as late Wednesday morning.
Winds also tore the sailboat Gingko off its mooring and ran it aground on the rocks of the causeway at Rocky Neck, while another boat broke free from its mooring in Magnolia Harbor.
Essex police and National Grid crews grappled with wires that were pulled down by a tree on Apple Street at Turtleback Road early Thursday morning. It only took power down on Turtleback Road, but police had to shut off a section of Western Avenue and Southern Avenue.
Rockport Police and public works crews dealt with several reports of downed branches yesterday.
Campanello said this storm didn't last as long or cause anywhere near the kind of problems that Sandy did when it brushed Cape Ann. That storm brought more damaging winds, with gusts of up to 80 miles per hour, and persisted for nearly 36 hours.
Fire Chief and Emergency Management Director Eric Smith, however, noted that the West Gloucester fire station also lost power during the storm, Smith said, and was running on generators for most of the day. He said the city's public safety departments handled the storm well.
National Grid crews spent yesterday repairing lines in Essex and in Gloucester.
"Thankfully, we've been able to handle a lot of stuff relatively quickly," said Charlotte McCormack, spokeswoman for the utility company.

Imagine you're a white-breasted nuthatch searching for a safe place to raise your family. Scouting around the edge of the forest, you find an old tree with a deep hole once drilled by a woodpecker. You peek into the darkness, then jump inside to check it out and make sure no bird, squirrel, or other critter has already claimed the space. Suddenly, another nuthatch appears at the entrance. You peck its head, beat your wings, and cry yank-yank to drive it away.
|Full-color PDF of " The Hole Story "
Teachers guide for "The Hole Story"
Survey: using the teachers guide
Does it sound scary to build a nest in a hole in a tree? It can be, but building a nest outside on a tree branch can be risky too. Outside nesters lose their young to cold weather or predators about half of the time.
Birds that nest in a hole, or cavity, have better luck. Cavity nesters raise healthy young birds about two-thirds of the time. Young birds in cavities can stay in the nest longer because predators cannot find them as easily. Those extra days give them time to grow bigger and stronger before facing the dangers of the outside world.
From tiny warblers and chickadees to large woodpeckers and owls, 35 bird species make their nests in cavities in Minnesota.
Bird eggs must be kept warm until they hatch. Parent birds sit on the eggs to warm them with their body heat. This is called incubation. Cavities make this job easier by holding in heat and keeping out rain and wind.
Putting a nest inside a tree cavity or a birdhouse also helps keep baby birds out of reach of many predators.
Where do parent birds find a nesting hole? In Minnesota, 13 bird species create their own holes in trees. One champion hole-maker is the northern flicker. This speckled woodpecker has a long, strong beak for drilling into trees. A flicker is a primary nester, or excavator. All species of woodpeckers are excavators.
Most cavity nesters don't drill their own cavities. Bluebirds, wood ducks, house wrens, owls, and other secondary nesters, or nonexcavators, search for nest boxes, abandoned woodpecker holes, or trees with natural cavities (caused by lightning strikes, wind breaking branches, insects).
Downy woodpeckers live in every part of Minnesota year-round. In May a pair chooses a nesting tree at the edge of a forest or park or even in a back yard. They find a dead branch or broken tree stub, from 8 feet to 50 feet high, and start drilling.
You can hear their steady tapping as they chip away at the wood for two to three weeks. First they chisel an entrance the size of a silver dollar. Then they hollow out the cavity, making it about as deep as this magazine is tall. The downies often excavate underneath a branch or in a hidden place in a stub. They carry away the wood chips and sawdust they produce, so squirrels and other predators won't notice the signs of nest building.
When the cavity is finished, the female woodpecker lays four or five glossy white eggs inside on a few leftover wood chips. Both parents take turns sitting on the eggs until hatching in about 12 days. After three weeks of being stuffed with insects and larvae, the nestlings venture outside the cavity. After three more weeks of meals provided by their parents, the young must live on their own.
Black-capped chickadees live throughout Minnesota in all seasons. In mid-May a pair starts excavating a nest hole in a tree in a forest or open space such as a back yard.
Because of their tiny beaks, chickadees search for well-rotted wood, often in birch trees or pine stumps. Both parents quietly chip away or pull out the soft, dead wood to create a cavity 4 to 10 feet off the ground. They carry away most of the wood chips to fool predators looking for a nest to raid.
To keep out larger birds, the little chickadees make their entrance hole only about the size of a quarter. They work seven to 10 days to make a cavity and spend another four days building a cuplike nest of moss, plant down, hair, feathers, and spider webs.
The female lays and incubates six to eight speckled eggs. When the chicks emerge in about 12 days, both parents handle feeding chores. Young leave the cavity after about 16 days, but they follow their parents around, begging for food for another three or four weeks.
Eastern screech-owls live everywhere in Minnesota, except the far northeastern corner. Look for them year-round, roosting in trees during the day. Because a screech-owl's coloring looks like tree bark, you can look right at it without seeing it—until it opens its large, yellow eyes.
The screech-owl's curved beak can tear up rodents but not excavate a cavity, so it looks for a natural cavity or woodpecker hole or nest box. The owl parents look for a home 5 to 30 feet off the ground in woods, swamps, parks, forests, and suburban back yards.
In May the female incubates four or five glossy white eggs for about 26 days, while the male brings food. The young leave the nest when they're just over a month old, but the parents still have a job to do. For another 10 weeks, they feed their young and teach them survival skills.
American kestrels live in the southern part of the state all year. Some migrate to northern Minnesota in the spring. These small falcons look for a nest site in an open space or a forest edge in late May. They choose a natural tree cavity, old woodpecker hole, or nest box from 9 to 32 feet off the ground.
The female lays about five pale, speckled eggs. She does most of the incubating, while the male brings her food. The eggs hatch in about 30 days. The parents feed their young insects and small rodents, a high-protein diet that makes them grow quickly.
After about a month, young kestrels leave the nest, but their parents continue to feed them for another 12 days.
Watch for kestrels hovering like small helicopters over a field as they hunt for mice or voles.
As people clear more and more land to build houses and shopping malls, some cavity nesters might not be able to find a nesting tree at all. Whenever someone removes a dead tree from a yard or a forest, another cavity-nesting place vanishes.
Birds compete fiercely for the limited number of cavities. If they can't find a cavity, they simply won't nest. Some non-native birds, such as house sparrows and starlings, will kill other birds to claim a cavity.
You can put up a nest box (also called a birdhouse) to make a new space for cavity nesters. Cornell University's Lab of Ornithology (ornithology means study of birds) offers a Web site with instructions on how to build and place a nest box. The book Woodworking for Wildlife (available at www.minnesotasbookstore.com, or by calling 800-657-3757) also offers instructions. Hang a nest box in your yard, and you'll have hours of fun watching your new neighbors—cavity nesters!

Simmons added that he doesn't condone violence against women and that he's "sincerely sorry" to those offended by the clip. Though Simmons removed the video, it still lives online.

Monteith's character will not OD on 'Glee'
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — After much speculation, "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy has announced that Cory Monteith's character Finn Hudson will not die as a result of a drug overdose. On July 13, Monteith was found dead in his hotel room in Canada as a result of a mix of alcohol and heroin. His shocking death devastated family, friends and fans and sent TV execs scrambling to figure out how to address the loss of the star of the hit FOX show.
"There were a lot of things that we had to decide [for the memorial episode]," Murphy explained. "At one point, we were going to have his character die after an accidental drug overdose -- that was something we had considered. But we have decided that we're not going to have him pass from that."

The lurvely reader Michelle RavelNews
August 25, 2002, 12:09 PM
The lurvely reader Michelle Ravel sent this to us, and I hadn't found it until now - thanks Michelle, sorry it took me so long:
Mary Walsh, a popular Canadian comedienne, has begun to do a show called "Open Book" in which she discusses a certain novel with a panel of other Canadians. The show runs on Sunday nights at eleven o'clock. I was delighted to find out that they are discussing Harry Potter on Oct. 27th. I don't want to miss it, and I'm sure that many of your worthy readers won't want to either. Here is the link for the show (unfortunately, I can't give you the link for the part where Harry Potter is mentioned directly, because the site works with javascript): http://cbc.ca/openbook/
Also note that the list says, "Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone," which was interesting, since it is a Canadian show [and they use "Philosopher" in Canada]. I have emailed the CBC and informed them of my dissapointment of their apparent use of the American title. ;)

An Illinois lawyer has been disbarred by the state supreme court for misrepresenting his income on his child's private school financial aid applications, in order to qualify for $22,830 in assistance over an approximately four-year period.
In addition to providing falsified copies of his tax returns to the Francis W. Parker School in Chicago, Bruce Paul Golden also "understandably offended" most members of the hearing panel, it noted in an earlier report, by refusing to provide requested information and "antagonistic, sometimes rude" conduct, recounts Forest Leaves, a suburban news publication. Golden worked for more than 20 years at McDermott Will & Emery.
A previous ABAJournal.com gives further details and links to the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission report. A 1998 Illinois Appellate Court opinion concerning a lawsuit brought by Golden against McDermott gives details of his legal career.
The Illinois Supreme Court disbarred him in a brief Nov. 19 order (PDF).
A securities lawyer, Golden had worked at McDermott Will & Emery for 21 years and been a capital partner for 10 when he was expelled in 1991. Golden graduated from Harvard Law School in 1969.

Town Square
Consultants want $225K more for ECR Downtown Specific Plan Moneypit
Original post made by Roxie Rorapaugh on Dec 8, 2011
The city is also paying for city staff time, including a special lawyer who is being paid out of the city manager's discretionary funds account.
It is time to can the plan. Residents and downtown businesses are opposed to it. If enacted it will cause local businesses to go under, people to lose jobs and traffic to become worse. The entire character of the downtown will be changed -- for what!!!
The planning department staff are not listening to the citizens of Menlo Park, nor are they working in our interests. They answer to developers and special interests. Our city council needs to say no to this request and start an investigation of how so much money could have been wasted on this project. Otherwise, the new appropriation will be wasted and the consultants will be back asking for more.
Tell the city council to say no!

Roxie, you know better than that. This council has no problem throwing good money after bad.
on Dec 9, 2011 at 1:34 pm
This project is definition of local government waste. I don't expect any council with members such as Fergusson and Cline to do the right thing. Almost $1M??
That's 4 wasteful city managers such as Rojas!

This project would have been done long ago if it weren't for the "Obstructionists." Thousand of ordinary, every day citizens helped develop this plan. A minority have tried to block it because "We know better." Citizen input is NOT a dirty 3 letter word. The people of Menlo Park have spoken. Let's do it.
on Dec 11, 2011 at 8:06 am
I'm excited about the positive direction this plan provides. The downtown area is good and with the help of positive citizens and knowledgeable experts the downtown area will become even better.
on Dec 12, 2011 at 2:35 pm
While this plan was supposed to support the necessary rezoning of El Camino Real, it morphed into including a re-engineering of the Central Business District. This overreach turned the plan into a bullet train to nowhere. The unintended consequences becoming more obvious to the electorate are a substantial increase in planning costs as well as probable, irreparable damage to the downtown's merchant community if the plan is enacted in its current form. The consultants obviously have to go back to their drawing boards and should be taking responsibility for their poor advice and not expect the infinite largess of Menlo Park's taxpayers to make the plan sensible.
on Dec 12, 2011 at 4:37 pm
Most of us wanted to see growth and development along with improvements/enhancements. I don't know that anyone in Menlo Park qualifies as an obstructionist, but maybe I just don't know the right people.
However, there is a big difference between trying to make our city more functional/more vibrant, and throwing all the rules out the window and saying "anything goes!" The consultants seem inclined to the latter, which is not the view I heard expressed by residents in the various community meetings. Most of us like our town (we've invested in it!) and would prefer not to be slapped with snarky labels just because we don't want to live in a dysfunctional version of Manhattan.

Touting 365 beaches, most protected by coral reefs; a ring of forts; and quaint Colonial architecture, Antigua, and particularly St. John's, is a classic example of the British Caribbean. Sites to see include St. John's Cathedral, destroyed by earthquakes and rebuilt on the same spot at least three times, the last time in 1845; and the Museum of Antigua & Barbuda, which, in addition to island history, also offers a fascinating exhibition of semiprecious stones. For a stroll in nature, make your way to Nelson's Dockyard National Park, or the nature trail to Shirley Heights. St. John's offers several hot spots for nightlife and live music. And be sure to stop at a local restaurant to taste the buttery "flying fish," unique to this part of the Caribbean.
The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 240 days before the cruise begins for guests receiving Concierge amenities, and 180 days before the cruise begins for all other guests. Guests receiving Concierge amenities will receive a 5% discount off of the prices shown below for Regent Choice tours.
Antigua has a beautiful national park in which lies the famous English Harbor and Nelson's Dockyard, named after Horatio Nelson. Journey through the center of the island and appreciate the history, architecture, music and culture that this unique place has to offer. Drive past quaint villages where old churches, rum shops and small chattel houses showcase the West Indian style and culture.
Your first stop will be at Dow's Hill, offering one of the best panoramic views on the island - perfect for taking photos. Take a short guided tour of the area and enjoy a multimedia presentation at the onsite visitors' center. From here, you will proceed to the Blockhouse Ruins, standing 446 feet above the Atlantic Ocean on a sheer cliff. In 1787, this was a principal lookout post for the British. The remains of the powder magazine, gun platforms, water catchment, officer's barracks and 32-pound cannon can be seen. You can also see the prestigious St. James Club on Marmora Bay and the home of musician Eric Clapton.
Take a drive to Shirley Heights Lookout, the southernmost point in Antigua. Be sure to enjoy the sweeping views of the harbor and ocean far below. On a clear day, you may even be able to see the volcanic island of Montserrat, located 28 miles out to sea.
Conclude your fun day with a visit to Nelson's Dockyard Village, one of the most popular attractions in the eastern Caribbean. This naval base was built in 1725 to provide a base for a squadron of ships patrolling the West Indies to maintain England's sea power. The Georgian naval dockyards are still in use today. Enjoy a complimentary beverage at an 18th-century inn, and explore the museum, mystery pillars and bakery. Admire the sleek yachts tied to the old stone quay before you return to the ship.

CATEGORIES MoviesLast month, TMZ cornered actor Tiny Lister and he revealed that Ice Cube was planning another 'Friday' movie with Chris Tucker. (Lister played Debo in the first two 'Friday' films.) Considering this interview was conducted in front of a Los Angeles club at, what appeared to be, very late at night, the news didn't seem all that credible. But, fear not potheads: Ice Cube's production company has just confirmed that another 'Friday' is in the works -- possibly with the entire cast of the original film. "Absolutely, yes the studio is in the process of getting the entire original cast to do another 'Friday,'" a rep for Ice Cube's company, Cube Vision Productions, told TMZ. "[Ice Cube] is very excited about this and has every intention to make it happen."
The first 'Friday,' which came out in 1995, followed two friends in Compton trying to settle a debt with the neighborhood drug dealer. The film starred Cube, Chris Tucker, Nia Long, Tiny Lister, John Witherspoon, Anna Maria Horsford and Regina King. Witherspoon and Ice Cube have been the only two actors to appear in all three 'Friday' movies.
No word on yet when 'Friday 4' would hit theaters. Fingers crossed for April 20?

Abstract: Qualitative research methods were used to investigate the informational needs of church worship leaders as they related to collection development for worship-service planning. Aguilar's environmental scanning model is adapted from a long-range strategic planning framework, to a short-term information-gathering methodology with task-focused implications. Although the interview subjects come from varied backgrounds denominationally, educationally and experientially, they have all developed a personal system of using environmental scanning for their collection development needs.

There are a number of differences between insurance policies for adults and those for teenagers. Younger people without families have difference insurance needs, and their lifestyles and habits are different on average from older people.
It is prudent for a teenager to buy life insurance since the premiums for the term of the insurance policy can be fixed at a much lower rate. This means that the insured person can benefit from much cheaper insurance. Insurance companies package insurance products for specific age groups to cater for the different risk profiles and needs of different categories of people in those age groups. Even if teenagers do not purchase age-group tailored insurance, there is an advantage to insuring earlier with more standard policies, which is that the premiums paid will be lower and can be locked in for the entire term.
That said, most teenagers do not have the earning power nor the ability to sustain a consistent income that many older adults have. This means that adult life insurance policies with expensive or even average premium costs can be prohibitive for teenagers. Closure of many term life insurance policies due to defaulting on payments or for other reasons can result in the loss of the premiums paid, as the majority of policies cannot be 'cashed out'.
Although there are a few term life insurance policies marketed specifically to teens, most often a quote is generated for teenagers as it is for other adults. Insurance companies use a process called underwriting to determine the level of risk associated with the individual insurance buyer. This level of risk is based upon such things as national statistical averages for mortality and disease, statistics about rates of injury and accident, the age of the individual, their health, and other facts about their demographic and person.
All life insurance in Australia is now term life insurance. Term life insurance policies are available to provide cover in the event of lost income (called income protection), in the event of serious temporary debilitating injury or illness (trauma term life insurance), and to provide more permanent protection in the case of permanent and total disability due to disease or injury. Young people who have a good level of general fitness have different risk levels for things like chronic diseases and heart attack: generally speaking they are much lower than for older individuals. This means that a different combination of income protection, trauma and other life insurance sub-types will be suitable for teenagers than for older adults. Nevertheless, some thought should be given to the future and some notice taken of some rather morbid statistics in establishing even shorter term life insurance.
Initially, it may be advisable to focus on income protection and trauma insurance to cover for such things as sporting and industrial accidents. However, other contingencies should be considered as the individual moves into their 30s and 40s, when such things as chronic diseases are more prevalent.
Policies for shorter terms tend to be cheaper. This means that for teenagers in good health but with limited incomes and perhaps some income instability, a shorter term life insurance plan is probably a better option. When all of these factors are taken into account, it becomes clear that insurance policy costs are governed by health as much as by age. Age is taken to be an indicator of health status. However, provable good health has a two-fold effect: it diminishes the likelihood that one will ever need to use an insurance policy, and any policy that one does buy will be cheaper. Avoiding smoking, unhealthy foods, and lack of exercise come highly recommended for all ages.

If autoCancel is set to true, and we move the editor on a different row, the changes are actually canceled but "canceledit" event is not fired.
I think that if any changes are reverted (in any moment), canceledit should be fired. In this situation should be fired too.

Police in Mount Holly say they are getting tips and could use more of the public's help in locating a person they say is raising the fear level in two Gaston County communities.
Investigators said Friday they feel there is a connection in at least two cases where a man has tried to lure students into his vehicle before school starts by offering them porn and alcohol.
Gaston County School superintendent Reeves McGlohon tells WBTV School officials are working with local law enforcement agencies.
Mount Holly is the latest place where police are looking into complaints of a man attempting to lure students into his vehicle.
Mount Holly Police Chief Don Roper said more officers will be near local campuses, when classes resume next week.
"This person had approached some students at a bus stop, and he attempted to get them to get in the vehicle with him and skip school," according to Chief Roper.
Chris Black has a son who attends Mount Holly Middle School, and he got a phone call from the school system saying a predator was on the loose.
"It was just very very scary," Black said. "They need to beef up security a lot more at those schools too."
Parents in this community describe the events as wake up calls, and say it means they need to have discussions with their children over the issues of stranger danger.
Wanda Lowery has a child enrolled at a Gaston County High School.
She said, "We need to be more conscious of our surroundings, and something like this happens. We need to be watching our kids a little bit better."

Put to the Test
Like Son, Like Father
It was a bright, breezy morning of drifting sunlight and chorusing birds, so I decided to ruin it by taking the SAT.
I had been deeply -- some might say obsessively -- involved in the application process for my college-bound son, Gillum, so in part I was moved to take the test by parental fellow feeling. But first I had to drop off Gillum into a swarm of teenagers hiving at the entrance of the local high school on the morning of his exam. There they waited for the great glass doors to swing open so they could slip into the seat of a flimsy pink-and-blue polypropylene combo chair-desk, open their test booklets, grip their sharpened No. 2 pencils, and submit themselves to the SAT. They would carefully mark only one answer for each question, and they would make sure to fill in the entire circle darkly and completely. They would not make any stray marks on their answer sheet. If they erased, they would do so completely, because incomplete erasures may be scored as intended answers. If they finished before time was called, they would check their work on that section. They would not turn to any other section. And this is how they would determine the course of the rest of their lives.
At least that's what a lot of them believed they were doing -- my son among them, I think -- and my heart went out to them, and to him. Waiting at the doors they all looked slightly lost, as if the combination of early-morning sleepiness and the weight of what they were about to do had settled around them like a fog. I learned later the real reason they were disoriented was that they had been told they couldn't bring their cell phones into the building; none of them had gone four hours without sending a text since middle school.
When I got home I made a cup of coffee and sharpened a packet of pencils, No. 2s, of course. I pulled a thick workbook from the shelf and settled myself in the sunlight at a table on our back porch. I'd gotten the workbook from my son, who had gotten it from Kaplan, which furnished all its students with fat compilations of real SATs to use for practice. The book, like the company, was an artifact of the gluttonous industry that surrounds the SAT -- fed by the same anxieties that stirred my son and that still had the power to stir me, as the clutch of my stomach testified when I glimpsed the command written across the bottom of the cover: do not open this book until the supervisor tells you to do so.
The pages of the book before me now looked unpleasantly familiar, as though I had bumped into a grade-school bully I hadn't seen in 30 years. The answer sheet, printed on pulpy newsprint, was the same: still stamped with the rows of little ovals, massed in military formation, waiting on me to fill in the wrong one. But there had been changes, too, the most dramatic one appearing right up front, on the second page. In the old days the test alternated math sections with sections covering reading ability, vocabulary, and grammar. This SAT opened with an essay question. The test takers are given two lined pages to fill with crisp, beguiling prose and 25 minutes to do it.
The instructions had that brisk tone I'd long remembered -- the tone of a not-very-nice adult trying to act friendly with youngsters. "Your essay must be written on the lines provided on your answer sheet; you will receive no other paper on which to write." Understood? "Try to write or print so that what you are writing is legible." Please don't be your usual slob self. "You will have enough space if you write on every line, avoid wide margins, and keep your handwriting to a reasonable size." Reasonable. That means not too big. Okay?
I set our kitchen timer to 25 minutes, turned the page and looked at the essay question, which instructed me to think about a quotation from the writer Patricia Moyes. "It is often interesting to consider the trifling causes that lead to great events," she wrote.
"Assignment: Do small events lead to catastrophes or are great events initiated by other causes? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue."
Four or five sharpened pencils lay on the table in front of me, barrel to barrel like a little river raft. I picked one up and angled the tip into the soft newsprint. The timer ticked. As I wrote, I found myself unexpectedly inspired, to the point of writer's cramp. It had been a long time since I had written by hand continuously for 25 minutes. I concluded the essay with a question of my own, one that I thought nicely captured the ambiguity of the topic and served as a piquant summary of my thoughts.

First Research Fellowship Programme Seminar
December 4, 2008
On 4 December, AKU-ISMC held the inaugural Research Fellowship Programme Seminar for faculty and research staff of the Institute, to introduce its research fellows and their projects, as well as raise questions related to the development of a collaborative research project for the fellows. The seminar is the first of the Research Fellowship Programme Seminar Series, which will culminate in an international workshop in 2009, leading to a publication. In addition to providing an opportunity for Research Fellows to share their research projects and progress to date; the seminar presented the opportunity for the Institute's faculty and staff to contribute to the conceptual process. As the inaugural seminar, the aim was to provide an introduction to the work of each fellow, as well as to the concept of a collaborative research project. Professor Abdou Filali-Ansary, Director of the Institute, introduced the fellows and the proposed collaborative research project – 'Dynamics of Networks and Institutions in Predominantly Muslim Contexts'. Initial discussions held with the research fellows led to the identification of a number of overlapping research themes and interests, which resulted in the consideration of this common project. The Institute has awarded four research fellowships to researchers who are working on various aspects of social change within Muslim contexts: Habiba Fathi (France); Torkis Lubis (Indonesia); Iftekhar Iqbal (Bangladesh); and Bakary Sambe (Senegal). Habiba Fathi's project, Islam, the State and the Transformation of Rural Space in post-Soviet Central Asia: a Study of the Family Through its Exchange Strategies , aims to study new relationships developing between independent states and Islam, from the perspective of social change. Beginning with an exploration of family structures in the rural areas of post-Soviet Central Asia, the research project aims to explore the role and status of religion in the context of nation building; the impact of land privatisation on rural dwellers; and, Muslim actors within society who are involved in these processes of social change. More generally, it will analyse relations between the religious, political, and economic fields. To this end, the project will take into account both local and national levels affected by rural transformation of Post Soviet Central Asia in order to identify internal factors that may influence the redefinition of the norms, socio-cultural and religious values of a given group. Torkis Lubis' research project, The Debate between the Indonesian Muslim Scholars Council (MUI) and the Contemporary Liberal Islamic Network in Indonesia seeks to map the landscape of Islamic institutions – in particular the Indonesian Scholars Council (MUI) and the Liberal Islam Network (LI) – considered within the multicultural and socio-culturally complex Indonesian context. This research project aims to explore the above organisations – highlight their discourses and reflect on their contribution to intellectual life in Indonesia. As the major concerns of the Ulama in Indonesia have been the issues of Tajdid and Ijtihad, Lubis' research will seek to place these concerns within the perspective of 'modernity'. Iftekhar Iqbals' research project, Beyond ideological paradigms: an exploration of the relationship between secular and Islamic civil societies in Bangladesh , seeks to explore the relationships between the two mutually contesting paradigms of secular-liberal civil society and an emerging 'Islamic civil society', with specific reference to Bangladesh. Three interconnected sets of queries will engage these themes in order to examine their relationship. The first set of questions relates to the evolution of the above forms of civil society in Bangladesh since 1971, when the country was born, breaking away from Pakistan. The second set of issues relates to the institutional and socio-cultural manifestations of the two paradigms – the signs, symbols and languages employed to indicate legitimacy. The third set of queries concentrates on the specific areas of contestations between the two paradigms. Iqbal's research aims to show that the key to understanding the so called 'failure' of the state in Bangladesh, and by extension many postcolonial Muslim countries, lies in understanding the temporal significance of tensions arising out of the claims of each paradigm to the formative process of state-building.Following the introduction to the projects of each research fellow, a discussion was held, raising questions about each project, as well as the proposed collaborative research project – 'Dynamics of Networks and Institutions in Predominantly Muslim Contexts'. The seminar was the first of a series to be held over the course of the academic year.

Thank God. Believe it or not, money actually doesn't grow on trees, and if it did the libs would have long ago chopped down all the money trees to pay for their superfluous teachers, illegal immigrants and cultural welfare abusers. Meanwhile, our infrastructure, something that we have to maintain or else suffer mass catastrophe, is going to crap. Have you seen many of our roads even in this area? And the bridges around the nation are about to collapse. At this rate, Americas soon gonna end up looking like Haiti

Education is the backbone of our future. We are leaving an enormous debt to the next generation! I say we provide them with the best education possible! This will at least give them a chance to pull themselves and us out of this mess!
on Jan 18, 2010 at 2:46 pm
Our education system can never deliver the education our kids deserve. Throwing money at a pathetically engineered system accomplishes nothing. And the type of education coming out of today's Cali schools is not forming any sort of backbone. The present system is full of entitled unionists fighting for themselves, not the children. So stop thinking you got us fooled

LONDON -- I've been popping stocks into my shopping basket in recent weeks, and it's about time I took one or two to the checkout. Here are five stocks I've found tempting, so should I buy any of them?
Going Continental
InterContinental Hotels Group has enjoyed a barnstorming five years, growing 160%. And it just keeps rising, up 15% in the past three months alone. This U.K.-listed global hotel chain group is a play on the recovery, particularly in the U.S., where it earns 45% of its revenues. When business starts building again and travelers get traveling, IHG's room occupancy rates will rise (and they're pretty full already). Every year, 153 million people spend a night at one of its nine brands, which include Holiday Inn, Crowne Plaza, and InterContinental. Yet the group doesn't own the physical hotels, having sold most of them and signed long-term management contracts to lease them back from the new owners. This leaves InterContinental light on assets and heavy on profit. Full-year 2012 results showed revenue rising 4% to 1.83 billion pounds and operating profit up 10% to 614 million pounds. The dividend was hiked 16%. It now yields 3.3%, covered a meaty 2.2 times. InterContinental's exposure to the U.S. and China has helped it survive the slowdown in Europe, but trading at 21 times earnings, it does looks expensive. With forecast earnings-per-share growth of 11% this year and 9% next year, there is plenty of upside, but you will pay a price for it. This is more of a hold than a buy.
Losing my Compass
Contract caterer Compass Group is another barnstormer, also up 160% over five years, and up 14% over three months. The company, which provides food and support services to businesses, schools, hospitals, universities, and sports facilities, employs 500,000 people across 50 countries and serves 4 million meals a year. As if that weren't enough, it has diversified into reception and office services, desk cleaning, and routine maintenance. Given all the offices in all the world, that gives it an almost unlimited target market. Compass trades at 8.30 pounds. Bank of America has just lifted its target price to 9.25 pounds and nailed it as a buy. Forecast EPS growth looks positive at 8% in the year to September 2013 and 11% over the 12 months after that. As with InterContinental, recent successes make it expensive: Compass trades at nearly 20 times earnings. The dividend is relatively disappointing, yielding just 2.6%. This could be a great buy in the next correction.
Pick up a Pearson?
Pearson hasn't done so well lately, with management warning of tough trading conditions. Pearson, which owns the Financial Times, publisher Penguin, and a thriving educational division, currently trades at 11.76 pounds, down 3% over the past year. Yet its profit held up in 2012, with full-year sales rising 5% and adjusted operating profit up 1% to 936 million pounds. International education revenue rose 13%, including a 25% rise in emerging markets, as yet another FTSE 100 favorite finds the going less sticky in the emerging world. Pearson is one publisher that really gets digital. The FT's digital readership is growing strongly, with subscriptions up 18% to almost 316,000, while ebooks now account for 17% of Penguin's sales. EPS growth looks shaky this year with a forecast drop of 5%, rebounding to 13% growth in 2014. You can buy it at 13.2 times earnings and pocket a 3.8% dividend that's covered 1.9 times and was recently hiked a progressive 7%. Brokers have been downgrading Pearson since its recent results, with many now underweight. If Pearson's massive restructuring plan does bear fruit, patient long-term investors could reap the rewards. Now might be a nice entry point.
Apple's sweet spot
Last year, everybody wanted a piece of Apple . Its share price soared to $700 as its portfolio of iProducts conquered the world like nothing before and profit seemed destined to rise 45% a year forever and ever. But that level of innovation is tricky to maintain, and what do you do when almost everybody owns an iPhone? One response was to check out Samsung's product range. So is Apple rotten to the core? Hardly. It now trades around $450, down 35% from its peak. That makes now a better time to buy than six months ago. Canaccord Genuity is keen, reiterating its buy rating with a target price of $600, reduced from $650. Sterne Agee also hails this stock a buy while slicing its target price from $715 to $630. The Apple backlash was inevitable. I don't expect the glory days of growth to return, with Steve Jobs gone and the tablet market looking increasingly crowded. But its sales and market share are still massive. Its customers are loyal (I'm writing this on a MacBook after years in Dell hell, and I'm not going back). Markets have had their fun and successfully lowered expectations. If the cash keeps coming in, or if Apple's miserly yield suddenly becomes masterly, as some anticipate, now could prove a sweet spot.
