NCADV is Proud to Support the NO MORE Campaign!
Celebrities, athletes, corporate leaders, and advocates have joined forces to generate awareness for domestic violence and sexual assault and encourage bystanders to help, in a dramatic new series of public service announcements that feature the NO MORE http://www.nomore.org/ symbol, the first unified branding symbol (like the pink breast cancer ribbon) for these issues. A new, national survey underscores the urgent need for the campaign, revealing that the overwhelming majority of Americans know victims of domestic violence and sexual assault, but they do not talk about the issues with their children or friends, or take steps to help survivors.

Leaky Exclusive: Dan Radcliffe Talks "How To Succeed" Musical, Prepping for Broadway, Life After Potter, and MoreRadcliffe Interviews
March 21, 2011, 12:33 AM
Recently, Leaky was lucky enough to sit down with actor Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) as he prepared to make his musical debut on Broadway in "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." Please continue reading below for the full transcript of our interview. For more information on the musical, including links to by tickets and to hear clips from the show, click here. Enjoy!
TLC: You're back in New York and you're back to Broadway again, but I was curious as to how this stage experience has differed-- so far-- from that of "Equus?"
Dan Radcliffe (DR): Rehearsing for a musical-- and particularly a musical like this-- everything is just on a much bigger scale. When we were in the rehearsal room for "Equus" we had four black blocks... was all we had in terms of sets. Here, we've got the entire moving set pieces just in the rehearsal rooms. They're manually moved, they're not on the tracks as they will be, obviously, in the theater, but we've got these huge wooden constructions in rehearsal. And also, "Equus" for a straight play-- because we had all the horses in it as well-- was quite a big cast. It was, I guess, about 12 or so people. This is 29 people in the cast so it just feels massive, to me. I'm loving it, just as I had a fantastic time on "Equus." This is my first musical and I'm very, very fortunate because it's great fun. I think it's the story, the songs, the jokes... it's all so much fun and we're all having a really, really good time. I was talking to somebody the other day and we were both just very, very... I would never, particularly at this stage, say that something's going to be great or going to be this, but I do think this is such a good piece. It's just so funny and warm and feel-good, while at the same time, not being patronizing. It's satirical and smart at the same time. But, I think it could be something really special and I think people are really going to enjoy it.
TLC: With everything being on such a bigger scale, has it been more challenging or more fun to incorporate singing and complex choreography into the performance?
DR: Yeah, that's been-- the singing and dancing part has been, without a doubt, some of the hardest stuff in the show. Particularly for me, who... I wouldn't call either of those my number one skill, although they have improved dramatically over the past year because I've been working on them so much. Rob's choreography, as well as being very, very complicated, Rob also has a bit of a history of being able to get non-dancers to dance really, really well. And I think the main reason for that is almost everything he choreographs he never really choreographs the steps without it having an acting beat behind it. Which means you're never once thinking 'Oh, I'm just doing a movement because I'm doing a movement,' everything is [related to] the story all the time. Which is why I think it can be slightly easier to translate for actors.
TLC: Has your interpretation or perspective on the role or the musical evolved very much from that first investor's performance you did back in late 09?
DR: In the intervening period I have been going more and more... it's become more real, the fact that I'm actually going to be doing a musical. So, the musical community is no longer something that I look at from a distance, I am actually going to be a part of it. So that's going to be new and very, very exciting for me. I don't know if my perspective on the history or the world of it has changed at that time, I'm not sure... maybe... I've always grown up with musicals being played, my parents are huge fans of musicals and so I grew up knowing all the scores and knowing as much of the history as my mum and dad could pass on, which was quite a lot. I've always been very aware of musical theater and, particularly, of Broadway, being the spiritual home of musical theater. Which is why it's so nerve-racking to be doing it over here. I'm thrilled to now be able to call myself a part of the Broadway community again, and particularly for a musical... I do find that very thrilling because there is such a rich musical heritage in this city that it's a pleasure and an honor to be part of that lineage.
TLC: Do you like being in New York City? Do you feel more anonymous... have a more normal life there?
DR: I think so, but I don't know why it is. I don't know if they're maybe a bit cooler or maybe more used to seeing celebrities, I'm not sure. But people are much less fussed over here if they see me walking around where I live. At the most, you'll get a nod of acknowledgement from people... and maybe a smile. But, generally speaking, people don't like to rush up or anything like that. You still occasionally get the experience of someone with a camera phone, if you're in a restaurant, someone will take out a camera phone and do that kind of thing, but that's everywhere. Recently, just in the past couple of weeks, I've done a couple of photo shoots on the street around where I live and if I'd done that in London at a busy time of day, people would have been quite... I imagine a small crowd could have been drawn to any photo shoot in the middle of London regardless of who's being photographed. But that fact that we're doing it here and we were down a side street and people would walk by, see me, and just smile or point me out to their kid and walk on. But, generally speaking people over hear are just very cool about it... it's quite a chill vibe from over here, definitely.
TLC: This is the first major transition from Harry Potter series you'd had because you don't have that film set to go back to when this is over... has that been a good transition for you?
DR: Yeah, absolutely. I finished "Potter" last year and then did the all the press for [Part One] at the end of the year. Around that time, as well, I had all ready started filming "Woman in Black," which went really, really well and, in a way, that was my first step outside of "Potter" since finishing. That was a great experience, and this is something, again, completely, totally different. This is the time where I've got both the energy and the inclination to keep challenging myself at this point in my life and keep doing completely different stuff. This is the time I should be doing it. Being in a musical was something that I always wanted to do but I certainly didn't think it would be this soon in my career that I would find myself doing it. In this year, hopefully, if the show goes well and we have a good long run then I'd be doing this for the rest of the year, and "Potter" will come out in the middle of that. It would be, potentially, a very exciting year for me with everything coming together.
TLC: Do you think Shakespeare could be one of those challenges one day?
DR: One day, yes, I'd love to. I'd be a pretty foolish actor if I sit here and say 'no' to that. It is also quite intimidating, the idea of doing Shakespeare. I would love to, and hopefully I will one day, but I would certainly have to wait and make sure I was with a really good director because I'd need a lot of direction. (Laughs.)
TLC: Thank you so much, Dan!
DR: Thank you very much, take care!

The Coral had a refurb a few wks before and is in superb condition! We were pleased with our cabin, equal to QM2. We had allocated main dining which was superb in all respects and did not need to find an alternative.
Ports of call are superb but the highlight is of course the Panama Canal. We entered via the Guatan locks and then moored up, the ship then went back out late afternoon to Colon. We chose the ships excursion to Panama City and Miraflora locks meeting up with the ship at Colon.
On a sea day from Limon to Grand Cayman we had the sad experience of a lady going overboard! At around 15:00 hrs we heard the ships horn give three quick blasts followed by the message "man overboard" all crew to muster stations. The ship had ejected a life buoy with a smoke flare so it knew where to go back to. It lowered 2 ribbed inflatables to assist in the search. We were then asked to return to our cabins for a head count. A coast guard plane and passing ship assisted in the search and after about 3 hrs they recovered the body. The Captain and Cruise Director were communicating the status and thanked the crew for their excellent work under sad conditions. This sad news affected the mood of the ship for the last 2 days of the cruise.
We would recommend this ship and cruise to all, great ship, food, entertainment, ports of call. Only down side is Miami airport, has to be one of the worst we have ever been through. Poor facility's !

Pediatrician, former long-time commissioner of the Worcester Public Health Department and UMass Medical School professor Arnold Gurwitz, 79, died in his home on Jan. 15. His friend Leonard J. Morse, MD, affiliate in medicine and family medicine & community health and himself a long-time Worcester public health commissioner, reflects on an extraordinary life.
Arnold Gurwitz, MD, died on Jan. 15 after a long illness. A life-long resident of Worcester, interrupted only by service in the U.S. Air Force, he practiced pediatrics for more than 35 years. In addition, he served Worcester as commissioner of public health from 1969 to 1994. His efforts on behalf of the city were recognized and deeply appreciated. It was my privilege to have known him as a friend and colleague for 48 years. Despite many personal tragedies, Arnie demonstrated extraordinary acts of generosity and devotion.
His dear wife, Rhoda, died at age 44, leaving him with four children. During Rhoda's illness we met weekly for breakfast at 7 a.m. and continued the ritual for 30 plus years. Arnold never complained. He always met his obligations in life responsibly, demonstrating service above self. He never uttered "why me."
A few years after Rhoda's death, his youngest daughter Barbara, an accomplished dancer, developed bone cancer that necessitated an amputation and chemotherapy. During a college semester while studying in Italy, she died suddenly of a cardiac arrhythmia, a presumed risk from a specific chemotherapeutic medicine. And throughout his own lengthy illness and confinement he never complained, always answering health inquiries with "I'm still here."
Among his many accomplishments as commissioner of public health, three events are memorable. In 1969, there was a very significant increase of hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection in Worcester, including the infamous outbreak that befell 90 of 97 members of the varsity football team of the College of the Holy Cross. The diagnosis was based on solid clinical and epidemiological information prior to the era of specific laboratory viral confirmation.
Worcester was becoming known as "Hepatitisville" and there was increased community concern as well as national and international awareness. Dr. Gurwitz and I were interviewed on the Holy Cross College radio station fielding questions from the college community offering assurance that the municipal water was safe to drink. Years later when laboratory science had advanced, HAV was precisely confirmed, from frozen specimens.
In 1978, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Worcester Department of Public Health, Dr. Gurwitz, as commissioner, hosted an academic conference dedicated to the "Conquest of Disease." During the program, Dr. Albert Sabin was presented with an engraved Paul Revere bowl from the school children of Worcester in recognition of his development of the live oral poliomyelitis vaccine.
And in 1985, in the presence of a protracted outbreak of hepatits B virus (HBV) infection that involved 1,300 people with eight deaths, the city was offered the first use of a newly developed HBV vaccine to immunize intimate contacts of those infected to extinguish the infection in similar fashion to smallpox eradication.
Dr. Gurwitz was very early to rise and was very well known on Water Street. Each Sunday, in advance of our 7 a.m. breakfast appointment, he had already delivered fresh hot bulkie rolls and bagels to the staff in the nurseries, intensive care units and emergency rooms at three hospitals. He loved grocery shopping and cooking, and his turkey stuffing and cabbage soup recipes have been published.
In 1999, Arnold Gurwitz received the Career Achievement Award from the Worcester District Medical Society. In 2003, he was awarded an honorary doctor of science degree from the UMass Medical School, where he was an assistant professor of clinical pediatrics and a member of the Residency Advisory Committee for the preventive medicine residency program.
Dr. Gurwitz is survived by three children and their spouses: Dr. Jerry Gurwitz, executive director of the Meyers Primary Care Institute and professor of geriatric medicine at UMMS, and his wife Dr. Leslie Fish, senior director of pharmacology services for the Fallon Community Health Plan; Linda Mogren, Esq., and her husband, professor Eric Mogren of Sycamore, Ill.; and Elaine Atlas and her husband, Dr. Ian Atlas, of Randolph, N.J. He is also survived by his sister Blossom Zabarsky and seven grandchildren.
Everyone has a history. Despite his tribulations, Arnold Gurwitz's shoulders were extremely strong. He practiced most compassionate medicine to his patients and served as a very dependable guardian for their parents. He did it very well.
Because of who Arnold Gurwitz was, he will always be remembered.

Makers of Soda Stream Home Soda Maker say you can turn water into soda in just 30 seconds.
"I think the kids would be thrilled to make their own soda!"
Mom, Sherry Medler, would be happy if this soda maker cuts down on all the empty cans and glasses she's constantly picking up.
"We 'll go through one in a day because they'll pour a glass and then run off and leave it."
Here we go. We filled the glass bottle with regular water and inserted the carbonator into the machine. Next, pour in your flavor of choice. Kids, Garrett and Layne pick root beer.
"Me first, me first!"
By the look on Garrett's face. We might need to do this again. It's a little flat. Here's the trick. The directions say you need to really give this a few good hard presses until you hear three buzzes. We do that and what a difference! We're fizzing now. So much so...we can even see the gases releasing!
"Tweak it until you like it!" laughed Sherry.
While these sodas don't taste exactly like name-brand colas, we like it.
Again, it might taste a little flat until you get the hang of it. I left the Soda Stream maker with the Medler family for a whole weekend. Sherry said they tried all of the flavors and really liked making their own soda.
"I think the kids would drink it."
She points out the soda flavorings don't contain high fructose corn syrup and significantly less calories than regular soda. Meantime, Garrett's going green.
"That's another good thing. There's so much trash that goes along with normal 2-liters and cans. With this, you virtually have no waste. You can send in your carbon dioxide. The bottles are re-usable. I think it'd be really good."
by the way, these bottles have 50 servings for $5 total. The box says that makes several liters and equals up to 150 cans.
You can buy refills and the carbon dioxide online, but there are local stores that offer this, too, at a reasonable price. The Kitchen Collection Store at the Sikeston Factory Outlet and some select Kohls' department stores both sell this product. Here is the online site: http://www.sodastreamusa.com/
It's $100 at first for one of these machines.
"B+ given the flavor-tweaking issues," said Sherry.
We're running out of fizz for this test. The Soda Stream Soda Maker gets a sparkling B+ on this Does it Work test.

Financial Aid
104 Egbert
Here is some very basic information about Financial Aid. For current information on your account, go to Web for Students. In order to continue receiving financial aid following initial enrollment at Clarion University of Pennsylvania, students must meet certain conditions each year:
They must be enrolled at least part-time and must reapply for financial aid each year.
Full-time baccalaureate students may receive assistance from most federal Title IV programs for up to six years of attendance or applicable program limits and state aid programs for each of their undergraduate years, providing they maintain "normal academic progress." This mean that undergraduate students must successfully complete a minimum of 21 new semester hours by the end of each academic year, including the summer, before they can be awarded grant assistance for their next school year. Financial aid is not awarded for the summer terms in which a student is earning new credits. Repeated courses, withdrawals, and incomplete courses do not count as new courses for academic progress requirements.
Part-time undergraduate students must successfully complete 12 semester hours by the end of each academic year, including the summer, before they can be granted assistance for their next school year.
Graduate students must successfully complete 18 semester hours by the end of each academic year, including the summer, before they can be granted assistance for their next school year.
Part-time graduate students must successfully complete nine semester hours during each academic year, including the summer, to continue receiving any financial aid. They must also earn the number of credits they attempt each semester. For example, if a graduate student registers for nine credits, the student must complete those nine credits in order to make satisfactory academic progress.
If a student withdraws from school before completing 60 percent of the semester, student will have to return part of the aid already received.
Once a student earns 60 semester hours, including transfer hours, the student must maintain a 2.0 cumulative QPA to continue receiving Title IV funds in addition to earning 21 new semester hours.
Once a student attempts 180 semester hours, federal financial assistance is terminated.
PHEAA grant recipients must complete 24 new semester hours each year to have their grants renewed during the following year.
Stafford Loan recipients become a level 02 student once 30 new semester hours are earned; level 03 after 60 hours; and level 04 after 90 hours.

Newberg motorcyclist critically injured in crash on 99W south of Dundee
Mar 22, 2014
News-Register Staff
DUNDEE — A Newberg motorcyclist was injured Saturday night when his bike went off Highway 99W about a mile south of Dundee, according to Oregon State Police.
He was identified as 24-year-old Curtis M. Peterson.
Sgt. Jesse Orosco gave this account:
The motorcyclist was traveling south about 6:50 p.m. when he failed to negotiate a curve and went off the highway, coming to rest in a grassy area adjacent to the highway.
The biker was taken by air ambulance to Legacy Emanuel Hospital in Portland. He was reported in critical condition on arrival.
The motorcyclist was wearing a protective helmet. Speed and alcohol may have contributed to the crash.

This harness is made to be quickly put on in a situation where you don't need to constantly wear it. This is my go-to harness for snow and glacier climbs when I need to rope-in for a short period of time, and it only takes around a minute to properly put on. It's comfortable and packs into a tiny pouch, so it's easy to take along without taking up too much room in my pack. I highly recommend it.
I wear 31" waist pants, so assumed the S/M would fit (claimed 28-35"). It just fits me without any insulating layers, and I really doubt I'll be able to use it for alpine climbing once I layer up.The product itself seems great, very lightweight and simple, just smaller than expected based on the sizing chart.
This harness is lightweight and packs small, and is comfortable to use with an expedition pack. The buckle on this harness is really, really difficult to use, especially where it is cold. I used this on Denali, and my hands got cold pretty much whenever I needed to put my harness on or off. Also, the straps in back are somewhat difficult to adjust. I would probably buy arcteryx's lightweight harness instead of this one, although this definitely works.
Great compact harness, pretty light and very compact. Even has gear loops!pretty comfy when worn with a pack on. The buckle however can be hard to thread, if your hands are cold or you have gloves on forget it!
I was looking for a light weigth ski touring harness so I got this one because it seemed to fit the bill. I have used it three times this fall. Twice ski touring up 4000 meter peaks, Allaninhorn and Breithorn, and travelling on glacier up Sommet les Diableret. The harness is great and perfect over shell pants and bibs. But the buckle is so hard to thread. Way too small and the double buckle style is terrible when your hands are cold. Also as I ski tour I am always changing layers and it is impossible to adjust without bare hands and even then it is a fight. I won't use it any more because it is such a pain.
Buckles for leg straps don't look like the best engineering feat, but they haven't failed on me yet; just making sure to be extra careful with them. It's actually pretty comfortable and packs incredibly small, great for backpacking trips.
I bought this harness at the end of last season. The harness worked great and was very packable. However, one of the buckles on the leg snaps broke already. This may be due to over tightening the leg loops or weak plastic. Either way I have to order a new buckle, which is kinda a bummer
This harness is awesome. I feel very confident about the strength and durability, despite the crazy light weight. Very easy to get in and out of. The two gear loops look a little flimsy, but I still have been using them and they work great. I would recommend this to everyone over the Alpine Bod. There really is no reason to be carrying the extra weight or wasting so much additional space in your pack.

All three California teams are hoping to have new stadiums built, but the prospect of that happening with city, state or federal funds seems unlikely at this point.
Chargers owner Dean Spanos met with San Diego mayor Jerry Sanders on Monday to discuss a new facility to replace Qualcomm Stadium, which is 44 years old. The team released a statement on Monday evening.
"The meeting focused on the future of redevelopment and the proposed changes out of Sacramento, the future of the NFL's G3 stadium loan program after the League's Collective Bargaining negotiations are resolved, and financing alternatives in the event that the City and the Chargers do not ultimately have access to redevelopment funding and/or G3 funding," the statement said.
"The Chargers and the Mayor's Office will continue to work together as these important issues are resolved."
Up the coast, California governor Jerry Brown told the San Francisco Chronicle that he doesn't want to use the state's redevelopment money to help either the Raiders or 49ers build new stadiums. Brown, the former mayor of Oakland, said the money would be better utilized assisting educational needs as opposed to entertainment. He mentioned that Raiders fans are still paying taxes on the refurbishment of Oakland Coliseum, even as the team tries to move out of that location.
"Oakland and Alameda County are spending $25 million a year, over a 20-year period, to repay a bond on a stadium that the owners now say may not be usable. That troubles me," Brown told the newspaper.
With his state in a budget crisis, Brown suggested team up with the local colleges and share venues.
"Use the ones over at Berkeley and Stanford — they are good stadiums," the governor said.
The way we see it
The construction of new stadiums is a major issue in the NFL's current labor negotiations, as owners want more assistance from the players in paying for these venues. All three California teams are looking to move out of their current homes, while the city of Los Angeles is considering building a new stadium while not even currently having a team. It seems, for the foreseeable future at least, the Chargers, Raiders and 49ers will all continue playing in their already-constructed locations.

Publication: theday.com
Montville – A new grocery store will soon be replacing Tri-Town Foods in Uncasville, according to the company's vice president, Kevin Brouillard.
Brouillard and Mayor Ronald McDaniel said another company will move into the space at 601 Norwich-New London Turnpike.
Brouillard would not name the company that is taking the space.
The new owners will "re-merchandise" the store and work with a different wholesaler, so Tri-Town is having inventory liquidation sales this week and next, said Brouillard.
Tri-Town employees will be interviewed next week for positions with the new company, he said.
Tri-Town is one of only two major supermarkets in town. The other is a Stop & Shop located in the Montville Commons plaza.

Putting the ALCS in perspective
Boston fans have been blessed, and the climb back to No. 1 isn't far
I've been trying to sort out my feelings since the Red Sox's Game 7 loss to the Rays in the American League Championship Series, so I turned to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center's Dr. Michael Miller, who is also editor-in-chief of the Harvard Mental Health Letter, for a little help. I knew I could trust him to be straight with me because, although he's a native New Yorker, his father despised the Yankees and passed that admirable trait along to his sons. (You never want to talk to a psychiatrist who'll gloat about your misery.)
"If you're anything like me, you're a lot more well rested. I don't miss the late nights, and I don't miss the stress," Miller said. "I was watching the World Series with my wife the other night, and she said, 'This is actually much more relaxing when your team isn't in it.' I think we are like a lot of Sox fans -- there's disappointment for sure, but it's not like it used to be."
That's when he put his finger on it. Gone was the bottomless well of self-pity that we used to drink from. There was not the kind of wailing and gnashing of teeth that followed the heart-wrenching loss to the Yankees in 2003. This time around the result was, dare I say, acceptable?
"I don't know that most Red Sox fans would say the result was 'acceptable,' but I do think they are a little more understanding," Miller said. "As much as we heard about the Rays folding under pressure, they didn't. And it's not like the Sox lost because they did something stupid. The Red Sox pushed it to seven games, and most of those were pretty competitive."
He added that winning a couple of World Series titles does change things.
"It is easier to say, 'You can't win them all' when you've won two in the last five years," he said.
As sports fans in general, we have been blessed with success. Perhaps you've heard about the Patriots' three Super Bowl championships and the Celtics' most recent title. If the Bruins ever pull out of their funk, it would be an embarrassment of riches. Still, there is the impulse to be greedy, to want it all even when you know you can't have it. That is especially true when it comes to the teams we root for.
"As humans, we want to be part of a group," Miller said. "We don't like being the outsider. I don't completely understand why we get so caught up in sports, but I think it has something to do with the fact that there are fewer and fewer things to join together around. Sports may be one of the last safe places to express our tribal nature."
As a tribe, we have gained a different perspective. We realize that we can put this in the past. We don't have to live there.
"What I'm most sad about is the warm weather being gone," said Miller. "You've got to keep the big picture in mind. I believe most people think that management -- and by that I mean ownership, front office and coaching -- is working hard to be successful. In terms of leadership, it might be fair to say people feel better about Red Sox management than they do about the management of the country. If I may borrow a phrase, 'The fundamentals are strong.' "
Where have I heard that before? Hey, it's no fun to be pushed off the top of the heap, but you've got this going for you, Sox fans. The climb back may not be all that far, and perhaps most important, you can still look down on Yankee fans.

Talking with People: Yes, It's That Easy
Current economic difficulties are negatively impacting the fire service in many ways. Today, governmental managers can do things to the fire service that five or 10 years ago would have been unthinkable – publicly questioning and even attacking fire...

There is no magic-bullet program in which "A" will result in "B" with "XYZ" cost per citizen. Different programs will affect different communities in different ways, and programs should be constantly evolving to meet changing community needs. Prevention is not a bottom-line number to be balanced against resources and immediate results. Prevention is an ongoing and dynamic process and it takes time to truly bring about permanent change; in fact, it can take a generation – for instance, when those first-graders you're teaching now become parents themselves and continue the messages. Most successful fire educators will be long retired before the true results of their efforts are realized.
It's all about people
Prevention and changing behaviors is not an elaborate process, and as Lee Levesque, a firefighter and public affairs officer for the Lady's Island St. Helena Fire District in South Carolina, puts it, "It all comes down simply to people!" An effective prevention program does not require a convoluted process of study and evaluation. An effective prevention program does not require every firefighter to be a public presenter or have special training. All that would be nice and you should strive for that if you have the resources, but it is not required for success.
It's about establishing relationships with those you serve. It comes down to having frequent conversations with these citizens based on an understanding and interest in their problems. It's about having conversations with our neighbors about something we love, are experts in and can describe like no other – fire protection.
Here is an example of what I am talking about: You do an analytical study and analysis on your fire problem in order to develop an efficient, cost-effective prevention program. Let's call it "prevention by spreadsheet." The results of this study show that the largest number of fires are occurring in a particular neighborhood and are related to cooking. Further analysis shows that these fires are occurring in homes that do not have fire extinguishers. So your spreadsheet shows simply that if you increase cooking safety and fire extinguisher awareness in that neighborhood, you will reduce fires.
To solve the problem, you can base your outreach program on this analysis and bombard residents of that neighborhood with the cooking safety and fire extinguisher information because that's what your spreadsheet tells you to do. You do "pre- and post-tests" to the very few residents you present to and they ace the tests. You now, in turn, think that you have demonstrated your program's proposed success based on "X" amount of citizens reached, and the scores on the tests you gave them 15 minutes after your presentation shows they learned new information. Ladies and gentlemen, it's an analytical success. But was it really a prevention success? Let's look at Lee Levesque's approach.
If your department approached prevention on a personal level by becoming involved with this community and having conversations with the residents on an intimate level, you would learn that many of them are single parents who are working two or more jobs just to pay their rent and provide food (Maslow's first hierarchy of needs). They're not concerned about having a fire; they are concerned with eviction and foreclosure, so if you just do what your analysis tells you to do, you will waste time and money presenting to people more worried about rent and food than what you have to say. Where do you think your message will fall on their list of priorities? You're asking them to stop helping their children with homework or bathing them while they are cooking because of the distraction, and then telling them to spend the precious little money they have on a fire extinguisher they really don't see a need for. To add to the quagmire, you are a stranger to them or – worse – a representative of the government who is telling them what's good for them. To put it in simpler terms, who is more likely to have a positive effect on that single parent – a stranger or a friend?
Prevention success is based on getting involved with members of your community on a personal level. "Prevention by spreadsheet" eliminates people, and an effective prevention program that alters behaviors and attitudes must be all about people. They just don't match.
Now, if you are doing "prevention by spreadsheet," what about "pre- and post-tests" to determine whether knowledge was gained? To get any value out of such tests, some time would have to pass to see what the students retained. That would involve mailings, tracking people down, dealing with changes of address, getting the tests returned and graded and then transposing all the information to your spreadsheet. What happens to the rest of your outreach and prevention efforts while you're in the office doing all the administrative tasks needed to create your spreadsheet?

In case you missed Macon Dawg's previous reports in June and December of 2013, Jacob Park of Stratford High School, Goose Creek, SC signed with us last June & enrolled early. He is currently listed as 6' 4' and 206 lbs. The most recent stats say he ran the 40 yard dash in 4:91. He is a Dual Threat, Pro-Style Quarterback who chose us over Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, Notre Dame, Mississippi State, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Oklahoma State, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Virginia Tech (and just wait til I tell you what he said about Alabama's recruiting style.)
He won the 2013 - 2014 Mr. South Carolina Football award over Mason Rudolph, who along with his Northwestern teammates beat Jacob Park and company in the State Championship. An accomplishment Jacob said was a shock. Previous award winners include Marcus Lattimore, Stephen Gilmore and Jadeveon Clowney. Definitely not too shabby.
Last year Macon Dawg thought he was "a bit slight for his height & needs to put on some weight." He also said Jacob has a "good, quick release and efficient throwing motion." At that time Jacob was listed as 6' 3" and 200 lbs.
Jacob has maintained a 3.4 GPA and still helped his dad rebuild a 1968 Mustang. He plans to major in either business or sports management, so he can manage his money & not get scammed should he make it to the NFL. He also lists as his favorite teacher, the First Grade Teacher that held him back a year because she felt like he needed the extra time at that level. He's been on the honor roll ever since. All in all, his non-football resume isn't too shabby either. I don't imagine he will be ineligible to play for academic reasons and I have hope that he won't find himself in an embarrassing situation that causes his dismissal or a loss of playing time.
According to the SBNation article on him a few weeks ago, he's "a consensus four-star player, ranked as the No. 5 prospect at his position and the No. 72 overall player in the 2014 class." Rivals lists him 12th, near the bottom of the list of four-star pro-style quarterbacks. 247sports.com has him in 7th. Saturday Down South has him listed as their #4. They claim there is "no obvious weakness." As usual with the various rankings, your mileage may vary.
As great as he seems to be today, we'll likely have to wait quite a while before we see him in action in an actual game. He will be waiting behind Hutson Mason, Faton Bauta, and Brice Ramsey in the depth chart for now. As stocked as our signal caller stable is, he was clear on why he picked UGA, "Coach Richt and (offensive coordinator Mike) Bobo didn't hassle me. They didn't call me every day. They sent me letters. They didn't send me a million letters like everybody else. But when they did, it was a letter that meant something. I went on a visit there, and it came down to Georgia and Alabama. Alabama was being wishy-washy. Coach Bobo told me 'I sent two offers out this year, you and Deshaun Watson. I'm not going to offer anybody else until you make a decision.' I took that to mean that he liked me a lot. Everything fell together after that. All my friends are Georgia fans. My brother is the biggest Georgia fan that you will ever know."
I don't know which part of all that I like best. The fact that we didn't send him enough junk mail to wallpaper his bedroom, the fact that when we sent him something it was meaningful, the fact that he said Alabama was being wishy-washy or the fact that his brother is the biggest Georgia fan you'll ever know (which is probably subject to some debate around here.)
Perhaps my favorite thing is that with everything he's quoted as saying, it sure sounds like he won't be looking to transfer in two years if he doesn't get playing time. It sounds like he wants to be at Georgia and is willing to do whatever is asked of him, even if that means waiting for his chance at playing big time football in a red and black uniform.

"Atlas Bomb Shelter" was started in Sacramento, CA in the 1950's during the Cold War era. To be politically correct in the world that we live in now the name was modernized to "Atlas Survival Shelters" in 2011 because a nuclear bomb is not the only threat we now face in this world. The company now produces it's shelters in California and Texas. jjjjjjjjjjjShown below is the 1961 pamphlet that was handed out to home owners during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Notice the letter of Certification from the Department of Defense dated August 14, 1961.
Warning: Be careful of a scam selling you space in Doomsday Bunkers that don't exist! "V"
Notice: There are over 100,000 round corrugated pipe shelters in America and not one reported catastrophic failure! Our competition is trying to misled people into thinking corrugated pipe is going to collapse on them yet the government uses the exact same pipe in it's missile silos as shown in the 3 pictures below. Atlas Survival Shelters builds every type of shelter available, from round corrugated pipe to smooth high pressure propane tanks, from fabricated square shelters to concrete monolythic domes to preformed concrete homes.The strongest shelter is a concrete monolythic dome and will take a near direct nuclear blast. The most practical and affordable is the corrugated pipe. The highest bar rated shelter is a high pressure propane tank 11' diameter by 47' long with 11/16" thick walls. Two of our shelter designs are used in our nuclear missile silos and have been since the 50's. Beware of unscrupulous companies making metal square shelters and claiming them to be bomb shelters when they are nothing more than a tornado shelter at best and burried only 1-3 feet deep and do not have a quality NBC air filtration system or have a home-built air system with no manual overide crank. "Remember", a shelter must be burried at minimum of 6' under the surface to achieve a root cellar effect which will keep the interior temperature between 56 and 58 degrees. All Atlas Survival Shelters are burried a minimum of 10' below the surface. Please study the engineering facts before believing these people building square metal box shelters. They will not do the job you think and do not have a long life expectancy. Common sense and facts prove a round or dome shelter is several times stronger than any metal box or shipping container. Note: Our dome shelters do not have metal rebar in the concrete, they have Basalt Rebar so they will be invisible to metal detectors in drones.
Atlas Survival Shelters are made of 10' or 12' diameter galvanized corrugated pipe, which is up to 11 times stronger than square box shelters "Have you ever seen a square submarine?". Our pipe shelters can be burried up to 42' deep and have an estimated lifespan of 200 years. There is not a better made pre-manufactured shelter on the market today than our corrugated pipe shelters which are typically burried 10' underground where as a metal boxed shelter typically only has 2-3' of earth cover. Keep in mind, the deeper the shelter is burried, the cooler it will stay in the summer months!. Our blast proof pipe shelter is rated at 8 bars where as a square metal box shelter is typically rated at 2 bars or 30 psi. Square shelters make a fine temporary tornado shelter or fallout shelter only for a short term. Our pipe shelters give you the option to live in them indefinitely because the deep depth in which they are burried allows you to control the climate. Our shelters are built with the same care and quality materials as any new home!.
This website contains over 1,000 pictures of our shelter interiors and installations!.
We build state-of-the-art pre-manufactured NBC underground steel survival shelters above FEMA and military standards but with luxurious interiors and to be installed underground off the grid for a very affordable price, app $10,000 per person. We have stores throughout the United States with our display shelters at their retail locations . "Check with us for participating locations and shows".
"All our Pipe Shelters have escape tunnels with concealed hatches and mud rooms with a lockable laser cut interior door at the bulkhead. The mud room will give you a place to undress out of dirty clothes and to store a small generator and it also gives you a place for your pet to go to the bathroom when locked down. The escape tunnel and reverse hatch will guarantee that you always have a second way out of your shelter in case a tornado dumps debri on your main hatch or you come under attack and you need a back-door to defend yourself. All our shelters have 6" air intake pipes and Swiss-made military grade air filtration systems pulling in 177 CFM .
"These standard & exclusive ATLAS SURVIVAL SHELTERS features are on all our 10' corrugated pipe shelters"!
You literally have a very defendable underground FORTRESS with our exclusive design. All our shelters are built to be placed underground and are rated as NBC (Nuclear, Biological & Chemical) class survival shelters, bomb shelters and fallout shelters. Our roomy and comfortable interiors allow you to use our shelters as a second home or a weekend hunting cabin with almost all the comforts of home built into your shelter without compromising the integrity of the shelter. All the prices listed with the shelters are F.O.B. Los Angeles, CA and do not include trucking and installation. Our shelters are designed to protect you and your family in case of any disaster including tornados, hurricanes, wild fires, civil unrest, even nuclear fallout. We have shelters both for your backyard or for your private land. These Bomb Shelters / Underground Cabins / Tornado Shelters are designed to be used regularly by weekend campers or deer hunters.
Our designs allow for the survival of your family in any sort of disaster with the ability to live in an underground shelter complete with sleeping quarters, kitchen, restroom, under-the-floor storage and our trademark undetectable escape hatch in case intruders discover your main hatch. YOU DO NOT FEEL LIKE YOU'RE IN A SMALL SUBMARINE, IN MY SHELTERS, THEY ARE VERY ROOMY AND DOG FRIENDLY.

GUELPH — When you're jetting around the world competing against the best gymnasts on the planet, you want your mind on the balance beam, not that English essay.
Luckily for Cambridge's 16-year-old Olympian Victoria Moors, she goes to a high school that understands conventional classrooms don't always work for elite athletes.
That's a big deal for a teenager who trains more than 30 hours a week, spends many weekends at competitions and has to regularly miss class as she trains for a return to the Olympics in 2016.
Moors, who helped Canada's artistic gymnastics squad make it to the Olympic team finals in London, switched to Guelph's Bishop Macdonell Catholic High School last winter after starting Grade 10 at a high school in Cambridge.
That move allowed her to continue her education at a time when her parents were considering pulling her out of school to focus full-time on training in the lead-up to the Games.
Moors and her family found a school willing to take novel approach to an independent learning program called Student Success, originally designed for students who were struggling in school.
"They said, 'Bring her here, we can help her,' " said Victoria's mother, Lisa Rutledge. "They've had athletes before and they know what it takes. It works because they're so flexible and they're so accommodating."
Tweaked for high-performing teenagers, the high school has used the same Student Success program to help other athletes, including alpine skier Erin Mielzynski, now graduated, freestyle skier Olivia Lane and gymnast Abby Stacey, among others.
The school works around the athletes' extensive training schedules and allows them flexibility to meet the curriculum demands of their courses. The hours can be unconventional — in Moors' case, her school day starts an hour earlier than her classmates, and she does catch up work when everyone else is on holidays.
Working with a specialized Student Success instructor, independent study plans and staying connected with teachers by email, the program offers a more flexible way to earn high school credits.
But no one is getting a free ride, stresses Bishop Mac's principal Holly Conway.
"I'm not an advocate for missing school, that's for sure. But you can't have a 'blinders on' approach to these kids," she said. "We're not giving anything away. Everyone is working for what they're getting."
Students like Moors aren't slacking outside of school — they have a work ethic and a schedule that would wear many people out — and a school shouldn't stand in the way of that kind of passion, but rather work with it, Conway said.
It's inspiring for other students at Bishop Mac to see the work that goes into becoming a top-calibre athlete, too, she said.
"These are career aspirations for these kids. It's not a pastime, it's not an add-on, it's not a volunteer kind of thing," Conway said.
Last year, gymnastics took Moors to London, China, France, Seattle, Puerto Rico and beyond, often for weeks at a time. As a gymnast on the national team, she's under contract to compete — and risks losing funding if she doesn't.
"The problem is, when you have athletes at that level, they don't choose where they go. They're assigned," Rutledge said. "In a conflict with an English essay or a presentation, they (school assignments) kind of take a back seat."
The switch to Bishop Mac has been a good move for Moors, who says she's enjoying school again since switching to the south-end Guelph high school. That wasn't always the case.
"The last school I was at, it was hard to balance both things … It's tough. You're coming home late from training so you don't always want to do homework," she said. "But now my grades have kind of skyrocketed."
The program has allowed her to have a fallback plan in case gymnastics doesn't turn into a full-fledged career after high school.
"As an athlete, you always need a backup plan. They've allowed that backup plan to be there, and to have success in both athletics and school," she said.
Bishop Mac has made her feel at home, too, by holding a special schoolwide ceremony in her honour after the Olympics.
"They've been really supportive of me leaving for training and not being at school because of competitions and my excessive training hours," Moors said. "They're really understanding about it. My courses are programmed around my training."
In some countries, gymnasts at Moors' level would go to specialized schools to continue their training. In Canada, there are costly private schools that cater to student athletes, but it's rare for a public school to do this.
The independent study program at Bishop Mac has helped some athletes enjoy school again, which Conway suggests could help their athletic success, too.
"Before, their academics were creating anxiety. If you want them to be at their best performance-wise, we needed to look at how we could lessen that," Conway said. "We're saying to them, 'you've got a lot on your plate and we're going to help you.'"
Another reason to keep them in school is the social network that a high school provides to these athletes, the principal said. It's important for all teenagers, including elite athletes, to feel 'normal' and have a regular network of friends, she said.
Moors' mother, meanwhile, says her daughter is getting the best of both worlds — earning a high school education while learning about the world and what it takes to compete against the very best.
"We were never looking for an easy way out. We just thought there must be some way that she can do both," Rutledge said. "There's a lot of things Victoria learned last year that you couldn't learn in school."

The new year is bringing with it renewed interest in restaurants, as consumer spending rebounds from the recession. One risk is that rising gas prices could curb appetites for dining out.
Here are the latest openings to come to my attention:
In Wake Forest, Sweet CeCe's Frozen Yogurt & Treats opened Thursday at 3624 Rogers Road. It is a frozen yogurt shop where customers serve themselves frozen yogurt, choose their own toppings and pay by weight. The company, which originated in Tennessee, is expanding. The Wake Forest store is its first in North Carolina.
In Cary, NY Bagel Cafe & Deli will open in the Shoppes of Kildaire at Kildaire Farm Road and Cary Parkway this summer.
Relish Cafe & Bar opened in Raleigh at 5625 Creedmoor Road, serving Southern comfort foods with emphasis on local ingredients.
In Durham, Pizza Inn is now open at 3906 N. Duke St. The store has been home off and on to various pizza shops since the 1960s, including a previous Pizza Inn. But the newly opened store is under new ownership.
In Raleigh, The Watkins Grill has reopened after a grill fire that shuttered it in late February. The long-time local favorite restaurant reopened five days after the fire, said owner Rhonda Selph. But she said she is still fielding calls from customers who don't know she's back open for business. Watkins is at 1625 Wake Forest Road.
Greek Fiesta has opened its sixth Triangle location in Towne North Plaza at Creedmoor and Strickland roads in North Raleigh. The company also has restaurants on Western Boulevard in Raleigh, in the Morrisville Outlet Mall, in Brier Creek, and in Cary at Crossroads Plaza and Stone Creek Village.
Scout & Molly's will open another store this summer at Stone Creek Village. Founder Lisa Disbrow recently moved her North Hills shop to Cameron Village, but the new Cary store will be a licensed location with a different owner and operator. The store is expected to open this summer.
In Raleigh, Nancy Nguyen is remodeling a salon that was started by her mother in 2000. She says her goal is to be the ultimate, hometown family and Southern salon, using the tag line "Family hair with a Southern flair." Sweet T Salon is at 404-181 E. Six Forks Road and will celebrate a grand reopening May 8.
In Clayton, at the Food Lion-anchored Market at River wood, 238 Pritchard Road, a veterinary office and family dentistry office will open this month, followed by Cappolla's Pizzeria & Grill in May.
Other items: In Raleigh at Triangle Town Center: Teavana will open in mid-May, and fashion and accessories boutique Charming Charlie will open in June. ... And in Knightdale, Big Lots! will open at 7132 Knightdale Blvd. on April 29..

Does placemaking help democracy?

Planning, designing and managing public spaces with human beings squarely at the center of the picture produces remarkably livable cities and economic growth. Does it also strengthen democracy by bringing people together to address shared issues?

"Study tour gets street-level view of how Copenhagen reinvented itself" by Andrew Sherry on Aug. 25 in Knight Blog
It's an important question for Knight Foundation, which supports informed and engaged communities because we believe they help democracy to thrive. Most city planners, architects and others involved in placemaking tend to speak primarily in practical terms, though: pedestrian-friendly streetscapes, grids of bike paths, programming in parks.
Riccardo Marini, a director of Gehl Architects, spoke for a full morning on the practicalities of placemaking projects to more than 30 people on a late August study tour to Copenhagen organized by 8-80 Cities and sponsored by Knight. But when pressed to say what was at the core of the work, he didn't hesitate.

Great guide to cooking Sunday lunches
12:54pm Wednesday 14th March 2012 in Book reviews
Mary Berry's Family Sunday Lunches by Mary Berry (Headline, £20)
This excellent book is great to flick through to get some ideas for Sunday lunches.
There are all the usual roasts, complete with useful cooking times, but also less traditional Sunday lunch dishes like paramasan and herb frikadellers, salmon and spinach bake and Oxford meatballs with pepper sauce.
Unlike some cook books, Mary Berry's keeps it simple - you never sense her recipes are striving for effect, just classic, beautifully-cooked food.
There are suggestions for starters, main courses and a range of cold desserts and hot puddings, plus plenty of tips on how to cook vegetables in a way to bring out their best qualities and flavours.
The winter curry and summer buffet sections offer some imaginative alternatives to the usual lamb, beef and chicken roasts.
All the recipes include tips on how to prepare the dish in advance and whether or not it freezes which, as the author points out, helps you keep one step ahead and make the best use of your time.
Richly illustrated, this book contains more than 150 delicious recipes to help you prepare some wonderful - and relaxed - Sunday lunch experiences.

The weather broke the very day after I showed you this picture of the brave little sassafras tree in my backyard, forging ahead with her plans for fall, despite an uncooperative forecast. It turned cold and wet, and stayed that way for days. Then the sun came out, but the mercury stayed down, and at my ten-year college reunion two days ago, I packed a scarf and an extra jacket, just in case the heat from the bonfire wasn't enough. (It was, just.)
So now that fall is really here, my thoughts turn to a different kind of comfort food. In the long summer months, I want to live on heaps of crunchy lettuce, cold melon, and homemade peach popsicles. Now, it's warm apple crisp on my mind, and mashed potatoes and, of course, soup of any stripe.
When moving across the country, there are a few things one must leave behind. It's a logisitics issue: unless you travel in way more style than I've ever dreamed, the contents of your freezer cannot go with you. This means saying goodbye to, among other things, three half-gallon ziploc bags of frozen cubes of homemade stock–vegetable, chicken, and bone broth, to be exact. The inconvenience of not having these things in one's freezer when, in one day, summer becomes fall should not be underestimated.
A few days ago, I bought a lovely chicken from a lovely woman at the tailgate market. It was raining, and it was cold, and I was having a hard time not falling in love with every bunch of collard greens and every bag of apples I saw. (Other people have this problem, too–right?) I roasted it the next day, and today its carcass is destined for the stock pot. And just in time, too–yesterday, the Man Friend left work early, planted himself on the couch, and registered an unexpected number on the thermometer, which then got an unfortunate song stuck in my head:
I'm sorry. That was uncalled for. You probably have it stuck in your head now, too. I have these occasional fits of meanness. They are (mostly) uncharacteristic, but rather persistent. Once, in the eighth grade, my English teacher played one of those quiz games with the class to help us learn some reading assignment or other for an upcoming test. He gave out Krispy Kreme doughnuts for correct answers. (Let me add that we didn't have a single Krispy Kreme in the entire county, so this was kind of special. Let me also add that our classes were pretty small, so we're not talking large quantities, either–just one box.) Down the to last doughnut, I answered correctly and took possession of my prize. Then Meghan Johnson's hand shot up in protest, and she said she'd gotten the right answer, too, and it wasn't fair for me to get the last doughnut. Well now. Mr. Boyd said we'd have to share, and Meghan glided out of her desk and across the room to claim her half. I can't really explain what happened next. It wasn't planned, and I knew it was wrong while I was doing it. (Kind of like posting the Foreigner video.) I looked her right in her smug little eye and licked the doughnut on all sides.
She withdrew her claim.
I felt like a heel, but hey–I had a whole doughnut.
I'm sorry about the song, but his temperature really was (is–he's still on the couch) 103. 103.4, to be exact. Which brings us back to the chicken: I don't know if it was the rain, the sudden thirty-degree drop in temperature, or my plan to restock my stock of stock (again, I'm sorry) that tempted the Cootie Fates, but he's sick, and I, though still normothermic, am starting to feel a little run-down and in need of soup myself.
The contenders: Red Lentil Soup with Lemon, Italian Bread and Cabbage Soup with Sage, Mushroom Barley, or a simple, tried-and-true Chicken Noodle.
I don't have proof that soup alone will cure what ails us (that's why we're supplementing with hot toddies just in case), but I have a good hunch that it will help.

As previously reported, running back Marcus Lattimore missed practice on Wednesday with a bruised hip, but it was assumed that he would still likely play and was kept out as a precautionary measure rather than a setback. But according to Josh Kendall on Twitter, head coach Steve Spurrier has said that Lattimore may not play on Saturday against Florida.
If Lattimore is unable to go, Kenny Miles would start in his place. Lattimore joins seven other players on the injury report, six of whom are dealing with the flu, as noted in another Tweet from Kendall. Players listed with the flu include defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, wide receivers Ace Sanders and Bruce Ellington, cornerback Jimmy Legree and offensive linemen Cody Gibson and Mike Matulis.
Defensive tackle Kelcy Quarles is on the injury report with a shoulder issue. Lattimore practiced on Tuesday and Spurrier said he was expected to play, which is why many thought him being left out of practice was more of a precautionary thing than a serious chance that he'd miss Saturday's game.

NEW YORK (AP) — Speculation is building that Microsoft will unveil a tablet computer on Monday.
The company was secretive when it invited media to an afternoon event in Los Angeles, saying it would be a "major" announcement and would not divulge the location until Monday morning.
In an email, the company had said, "This will be a major Microsoft announcement — you will not want to miss it."
Several media outlets, including The New York Times, cited unnamed sources saying that Microsoft will launch its own tablet to boost its new Windows 8 operating system and counter Apple's hot-selling iPad.
Because the event is in Los Angeles and not at Microsoft headquarters in suburban Seattle, others have speculated that the company could be preparing to reveal a distribution deal for movie or TV content.
Microsoft declined to comment.
Microsoft is preparing to release its new operating system, Windows 8, which works across laptop computers, tablets and even televisions.

---- — PLATTSBURGH — A man sustained minor injuries after being ejected from his car following a two-car accident April 15.
Shortly before 7:44 p.m., John Eldon Zehr, 32, of Morrisonville was traveling northbound on Military Turnpike near Area Development Drive in the Town of Plattsburgh when he became distracted by a rock that had struck his windshield as the vehicles were slowing in traffic, Plattsburgh-based State Police said.
While surveying his windshield for damage, Zehr struck the rear of the car in front of him, the driver of which was Brandon Warren Cook, 19, of Plattsburgh, police said.
Cook's vehicle was pushed off the east shoulder of the roadway and Cook was ejected from the car, police said.
He had minor injuries throughout his body, police said.
Cook's class M permit was expired, police said.
No further information was available.

Minnesota faces huge obstacles in building a winning program in college football. Nebraska faces the same obstacles in men's basketball. How are these two programs ever going to become winners?
