All Patrick Patterson has to do to match his 07-08 rebounding total at Alabama on Saturday, is get half as many rebounds as he did last night. Despite averaging just over 3 minutes less per game than last year (a mere 32.6 vs his crazy 35.7 last year), Patterson is averaging almost two more boards per game (9.6 vs 7.7 last year)!
Right now Patterson's rebounding total for the season is sitting at 183 in 19 games played. His totals last year? 192 in 25 games.
Patterson has mainly picked up the effort on the defensive end this year. His defensive rebounds already eclipse what he did last year (138 so far this year vs 121 last year). His def. rebounding avg. is up to 7.26 from 4.84. Offensive boards are a little more difficult to come by, partly because he's playing on a team shooting 50.8% (second only to Utah State who's shooting 51.6%).
Although we are only three games removed from the Vandy game and Patterson's career low rebounding total (1). After a MONSTER night like Patterson had last night, you have to take a minute to appreciate the effort he's putting in this year.

Take away his 10 state championships and 15 district crowns. Take away every gold medal in Reverend Jerome Milton's career.
He'd still be considered one of the best coaches in East Texas.
"It goes beyond state championships and district championships and gold medals," said Bishop Gorman athletic director Jeff Smith. "It goes to the molding and shaping of young men and women."
After 25 years as track and field coach at Bishop Gorman High School, Rev. Milton has decided to retire.
"It's going to be very difficult from where I started from," said Milton. "Nurturing and nursing and leading and guiding and with what the Lord has blessed me to bring the program to. It's going to be difficult but at the same time I see a lot of joy."
Clearing hurdles his entire life, Milton has helped young student athletes do the same. In his quarter century of coaching, Milton has helped 105 of his track and field athletes earn college scholarships.
"They'll remember what he said to them to motivate them," said Smith. "They may not remember the race, but they'll remember the man that inspired them to be better than what they thought they could be."

Don't believe their common names: French fries aren't necessarily from France, and Worcestershire sauce isn't necessarily from Worcestershire. Many people were unaware where some of the most common foods originated, according to a new study.

Keywords: Nationality, foods, popularity, origins
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The majority of poll respondents, 70 percent of 1,003 people said they were confident that they had a good knowledge of foreign foods. Sixty-four percent and 90 percent, respectively, incorrectly guessed where French fries and pasta were first created.
For example, over three-quarters of those surveyed incorrectly believed that chili con carne was first eaten in Mexico, not the U.S., while only 10 percent knew the correct origins of cheesecake . Ancient Greece.
More than 90 percent were unaware that Worcestershire sauce was created in Bengal and not the west midlands of England. Only 11 percent of people know the correct birthplace of French fries - which nonetheless has a large number of French-speaking people: Belgium.
The survey also found that less than five percent are aware that pasta actually originates from China.
Only a third of respondents thought that the British-made Swiss roll was from Switzerland.
Emerging cuisines that are enjoying popularity appear to be Thai, Greek and Caribbean foods.
"The results of this survey show that we're certainly not as knowledgeable as we think we are when it comes to foods from other cultures," Afruj Miah, senior national account manager at GLORIOUS! Foods, which carried out the survey, said.
Overall, the Top 10 foods that duped respondents in the survey:
10. Fajita, 88.9 percent incorrect: Texas, USA
9. French Fries, 89.3 percent incorrect: Belgium
8. Cheesecake, 89.9 percent incorrect: Ancient Greece
7. Noodle Chop Suey, 90 percent incorrect: USA
6. Garlic Bread, 92.6 percent incorrect: Asia and USA
5. Chili Con Carne, 92.9 percent incorrect: USA
4. Vindaloo, 93.7 percent incorrect: Portugal
3. Lasagna, 94.5 percent incorrect: Greece
2. Pasta, 95.1 percent incorrect: China
1. Worcestershire Sauce, 96.3 percent incorrect: Bengal

Tottenham are reported to be making a loan offer for Roma Striker Marco Borriello.
Marco Borriello (30) famously failed a drugs test in 2007, He tested positive for prednisolone and prednisone and served a suspension handed down on him.
Roma are reportedly willing to let Borriello leave on a season long loan and will not ask for a fee as long as the other club pays the full wage of £80k p/w. Boriello was once regarded as one of the best strikers in Italy in his AC Milan days but seems to be on the decline in his career.
Doesn't thrill me with confidence this one, I feel we should be aiming higher, maybe a good player but Heskey was once classed as a good player, it's a goal machine that is required at the club to please the fans not some guy who can hold the ball up well and chip in with 8 or 9 goals a season that's what Adebayor is for and he does it well.
Not for me thanks

'Outrageous' comments about cycling
6:20pm Wednesday 9th May 2012 in Opinion
I'm sure that being provocative is part of the brief, but it is simply outrageous of Allan Tunningley to suggest that cyclists should keep off the roads (Allan Tunningley column, April 26, 'Not cycling to longevity').
Certainly some parts of some highways are best avoided but, in the main, riding with care is safe enough. And it encourages - what is sorely needed - driving with care, and respect for other road users.
Should walkers, too, simply abandon the tarmac, does he think? And then what's next? Are we to sandbag our house just in case some clod in a 4x4 wants to run through the village at 80mph?
Go the Tunningley route and it's the end of civilization as we know it.

Mould allergies drive some to live in tents
Helsinki ponders housing solutions for those suffering from mould allergies
print this
By Jarkko Hakala
A tent and a bed on the bottom, storage containers for clothing, and a few personal items: these are almost the only personal items that Helsinki resident
Katja Pulkkinen
has. She lives year-round in a tent because of the allergy symptoms that she gets from mould and chemicals almost anyplace indoors.
A few seriously afflicted Helsinki residents live in small tents at the Rastila campground. Many others try to get by in apartments, or on balconies.
The City of Helsinki
is trying to figure out a way to help those who are oversensitive to moulds. It has set up a working group and has ordered a study form the Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT).
Those affected by the problems are pleased that the city is taking the matter seriously. Pulkkinen has gone through all levels of city officialdom. She also chairs an officially registered association of "mould refugees".
"This is the first time that our pleas for help met with some kind of response", she says.
Even a small amount
of mould spores in the air can cause disabling pain, numbness, and bleeding of the mouth for Pulkkinen.
"I have spent three years on a balcony, out of doors, or really suffering in while experimenting with different types of housing indoors."
Behind her she has hundreds
of visits to prospective apartments, as well as numerous rental apartments. She has not been able to stay in any of them.
Pulkkinen was exposed to mould already at school and while studying, but the symptoms really surged a few years ago when she lived in a fungus-ridden row house in Inari.
Another victim of mould
Ari Koponen
, had to give up his home and his job after the onset of the disease. In May he finally moved into a tent. Koponen has tried to live in several apartments, at a cottage, and with friends.
Koponen feels that society should admit to the existence of this new disease, and at least try to find a treatment for it, instead of focusing on studying asthma and pulmonary diseases.
"I am a middle-aged man. I have worked for a long time, and raised two children to adulthood. I have done my share as have many others of my age. Now I am waiting for society to show some reciprocity."
Some light has appeared
at the end of the tunnel. The City of Helsinki has started offering those who are seriously afflicted monetary assistance for buying tents, for instance.
The assistance is needed. Just keeping a tent in a campground costs EUR 600 a month.
Pulkkinen estimates
that thousands or tens of thousands of Finns suffer from mould or chemical allergies.
"Already about 200 people like us who have taken ill in a way that causes us disabilities have asked our association for emergency housing."
The very existence of the disease has been disputed
and its origins are not well known. In Finland it has no diagnosis number. Pulkkinen says that such a number exists in Germany, Austria, and Japan.
The possibility for a diagnosis can affect access to health insurance compensation.
The mould refugees attribute the problem to construction methods, and to chemicals which make the dampness microbes produce toxins which wreak havoc on the system.
They emphasise that the symptoms
are neurological with increasing frequency. This means that they do not manifest themselves as asthma or pulmonary diseases.
At times the symptoms have been seen as psychological, that the sufferers dispute.
"This is how they deprive us of the right to be sick", Pulkkinen says.
"Doctors don't know how to help because their training does not include even the most basic knowledge of the subject."

I've coveted Dr. Marten boots for a long time. Probably since the 90s when I first learned of their existence.
After 20 some odd years, I finally own a pair. I. Am. In. Love.
Those who know me know how much I love boots. I've always loved them and have worn them even when they're not in style.
It just so happens that Docs are in style again. Although I'm not sure if they ever go out of style for the people who love them.
Today I took pictures of them. And then I had my son, Joe, take pictures of me wearing them. Crazy, huh?
It ended up being a good experience for Joe. I've been teaching him photography and this was a good opportunity for him to learn a few new things. He was using my camera and in full manual mode which means he had complete control over the exposure.

Photo of Lincoln at Gettysburg?
The Only Photo of Lincoln at Gettysburg?
This photo (cropped, the full version is below) found in the National Archives in 1952 by Josephine Cobb, the chief of the Still Photo divison, is believed to be the only photograph of President Abraham Lincoln in Gettysburg, where he later gave his Gettysburg Address - arguably the most famous speech by a President of the United States - on this day in 1863. It was taken by Matthew Brady, the famed Civil War photographer.
Lincoln, who made the trip from Washington to speak at the dedication of a National Cemetery in the Pennsylvania town, site of the bloodiest and most momentous conflict of the Civil War. Over a three day period, from July 1 to July 3, 1863, some 46,286 Union and Confederate troops would be killed, wounded or go missing. The battle stopped the advance of Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and marked the turning point of the war.
In Lincoln's characteristic eloquence and brevity, he explained why the war was being waged. He emphasized the principles of human equality and said the Union would be preserved with "a new birth of freedom."
"Four score and seven years ago," Lincoln began, referring to the 87 years since the Declaration of Independence was signed during the Revolutionary War, "our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal."
The President continued:
"Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and dedicated, can long endure. We are met on the great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that the nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this."
"But in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

While some of the races may be decided in June, for most this will be a matter of narrowing down the candidates to the top two vote-getters, who will then face off in November on a ballot that also will include various city council and school board races.
Having been an interested election bystander for several decades now, I'd like to offer some unsolicited advice to those considering a run for public office.
* Know what the job you are seeking entails, and make sure it's the one you want to do.
Already this year, I've heard or read statements from candidates for Solano County supervisor who've said they are running because of the need for better schools, public safety and/or economic development. These would be fine platforms if the Board of Supervisors dealt with those issues.It doesn't.
Sure, the board funds the Sheriff's Office, which provides public safety in the unincorporated parts of the county, but the department itself is run by another elected official -- the sheriff. Yes, a supervisor may play a role in ensuring that county social services are available on school campuses, but the job of running schools falls to elected school board trustees. And while the county may be a partner in local or regional economic development efforts, it's a very small piece of a supervisor's job.
The county is where state polices are implemented, so much of what supervisors deal with are health and social service matters -- think welfare, health care, mental health, children's and senior services, foster care, etc. Agriculture and animal welfare are under the board's purview, as are county parks, the Nut Tree Airport and a library system. Board members deal with regional concerns, such as transportation, planning, the Delta and water.
If these are issues that interest you, great. But if you want to run the schools, oversee police or work to bring businesses to your community, you would be better off serving on a school board or city council.
* If you file a candidate statement for the ballot (and, personally, I think it's a good idea), be sure to ask someone to look it over for you. The Elections Department prints statements "as is," so you won't get any editing help there.
* Don't engage in sign wars. Don't put your picture on a campaign sign and then complain when someone adds a mustache and/or beard. Know what the community's rules are for posting signs and abide by them. Make sure you have the property owner's permission before putting up a sign, and if it disappears, don't automatically blame your opponent. Remember, how you handle your signs is an indication of how you will handle the public's business, and voters will be watching.

The assassination of John F. Kennedy 50 years ago this week, prompted countless memorial tributes. Around the world, streets, airports, and high schools were named in honor of the fallen president. A noted Northeast Ohio gospel performer made his contribution with a hit song that raced up the pop charts. ideastream's David C. Barnett reports that it was part of a long tradition.
Thanks to Fred Burton, Jr. for helping in the production of this story.
Clevelander Fred Burton says President Kennedy's death left him lost.
FRED BURTON: Oh man, that was some pretty tough times.
As a gospel singer, he was accustomed to providing spiritual sustenance in a time of despair, but in those dark days fifty years ago, it was hard to see any path back to the light.
FRED BURTON: You thought the world was coming to an end. You thought, "What's going on? Why would they kill the man that everybody has hope in?"
But, Burton recalls that his friend and fellow performer Bill Spivery saw the president's death as a call to action.
FRED BURTON: And Bill said, "I feel that, in my heart, that I must do something else. I'm not going to let it go. I'm going to put it in words and I'm going to put it in music. And that's what he done.
Bill Spivery had already made a name for himself in Cleveland's gospel music scene, with his 1959 song, "Operator…" which would later be famously covered by Manhattan Transfer. Spivery spent weeks shopping his new song, "Mr. John", to local radio stations and recording companies, He eventually found some sympathetic ears in producer Carl Maduri and arranger Jimmy Testa, who helped craft the tune in the studio. The production included Spivery's children singing in a back-up chorus.
MUSIC: Bill Spivery Mr. John
The song crested at number three on the local pop music charts in early 1964. As a specialist in American popular music at Case Western Reserve University, Daniel Goldmark says musical tributes to fallen presidents date all the way back to our first assassinated leader, Abraham Lincoln.
DANIEL GOLDMARK: An example of one of these songs ---the main title is "Rest Martyr, Rest", and the chorus is:
Rest martyr, rest,
From the scenes of death and pain.
Though murderous hands have stole thy heart,
Thy noble deeds remain.
The song was published shortly after Lincoln's death in 1865 and was sold as sheet music to be sung at memorial services, or for individuals to buy and play at home on a piano. By the time of William McKinley's assassination, in 1901, there was a new way to hear popular music --- phonograph records.
The funeral for the Ohio-born president was accompanied by a song said to be his favorite hymn.
DANIEL GOLDMARK: In the case of McKinley, we have a song that already exists, that ends up being tied to his memorial, and that's "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere". And turns into a huge hit. And it's right at the time where recording technology is really becoming big.
MUSIC: Cylinder recording of "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere"
The death of John F. Kennedy has been the subject of numerous recordings over the years, and Washington DC-based researcher Todd Gardner is trying to catalog each one.
TODD GARDNER: My current count is 285 --- 1963 to the present.
Gardner says a doctorate in History helped prepare him for the task of hunting down every song about, or that references, the Kennedy assassination.
TODD GARDNER: The earlier songs tend to be tributes and laments for JFK --- "Abraham, Martin and John" being the best example of that.
DCB: After the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy in 1968, singer Dion DiMucci, recorded a tribute to the fallen leaders.
Has anybody here, seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone
He freed a lot of people,
But it seems the good, they die young
I just turned around
And he was gone.
Todd Gardner says music about the JFK assassination is still being recorded, and the newer songs have moved from heartfelt ballads to darker themes.
TODD GARDNER: In recent years, the focus has been much more on the general sense that institutions can't be trusted. The actual event isn't as important as what it stands for, now --- the sense of conspiracy.
MUSIC: Buckwheat Catapillar "Kennedy's Head"
Over the course of nearly 150 years, musicians have found numerous ways to memorialize --- and at times question --- the deaths of assassinated presidents. But sometimes, the musical associations aren't so direct. For instance, the announcement of President Kennedy's death in 1963 was made on television to the strains of music written nearly 30 years earlier.
DANIEL GOLDMARK: Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings".
Music scholar Daniel Goldmark says the familiar Barber piece was originally written in 1936. Those somber strings were also heard at the death announcement of Franklin Roosevelt, that same year, and at the funerals of dignitaries and celebrities ever since.
DANIEL GOLDMARK: So now, the meaning of the piece is profoundly associated more with death or with memory of the past, as opposed to whatever Barber might have intended for it to mean.
Fred Burton thinks that the various kinds of music that were played after President Kennedy died helped a nation grieve and recover from some very dark times.
FRED BURTON: We all went through a lot of pain, at that time. And music… can lift that burden.

Great Products & Gear <<< Best Travel Car Seats <<< Car Seat Alternatives
Written by: Shelly Rivoli
RideSafer Travel Vest
4.5 / 5 stars
A detailed review of our family's experiences with the RideSafer travel vest, the portable travel alternative to car seats and high back boosters.
Find it online at: SafeRide4Kids Amazon.com
How many times have I been asked if I think a family should take their car seat on vacation when they'll "only need it a couple of times," particularly in a taxi when they know they'll be legal without one? Plenty.
But for those who will be traveling mostly by train or public transportation during their trips--when the ability to travel light makes a great difference in their travel plans and bottom line, it's an understandable question.
Well, guess what? For those who will be traveling with a child 3 years old and 30 lbs. on up, I say yes, leave that car seat behind. Take this instead.
Because I've been recommending the RideSafer since before Travels with Baby was published, I was delighted when Safe Traffic System offered me one of their first new & improved models released to the public.
I tested ours out with each of my children to see how it worked at different sizes. Here's what I found:
The RideSafer vest at a glance:
Find the newest models of RideSafer travel vests online at:
Click here for important differences between these modelsWhat's changed? You might still see some old copy around assuming all that's changed are the colors, so do be aware that the new version offers a better range of fit, with small accommodating smaller children (it used to fit from 38" tall and 35 lbs.). Also, the newer models have one belt buckle rather than two. The new belt paths are also a little easier / faster to use, and the optional / removable top tether strap enables you to use it quite securely in a center seating position where applicable (more comments on this below). And yes, it's now available in fun colors: blue, pink and red. However this one that they're calling red is more of a "vintage coral" in my opinion (with a hip retro texture, no less). Update: Please click here for key differences between the newest models available (the RS2 and RS3).
Your child can actually wear just the vest (minus the head rest and optional crotch strap) and buckle into a taxi, rental, or relative's car safely, allowing you to travel with little more than a padded vest in the side of your carry-on bag.
It weighs 3 lbs.
The removable padded head rest adds comfort for long drives.
Kids can actually recline in back seats that offer the option.
For bigger families requiring multiple car seats or a combination of car seats and boosters, this also makes it much easier to fit three children across the back seat even if two are still in proper car seats. That alone could save you some money on rental car upgrades or having to request a minivan taxi rather than a standard cab.If you plan to use the CARES flight harness for a child 3 years or older, this is your perfect on-the-ground companion and car seat replacement. Zip it into the side pocket of your checked suitcase or carry-on and it will be handy on arrival.
No expiration date: I can't pass up this opportunity to point out that, unlike other car seats, the RideSafer has no expiration date. Which means it doesn't become gradually less safe through years of use, and it doesn't need to end up in a land fill a few years from now.
Carpooling with kids: If you carpool with other people's children, you can use this as a space-saving back-up to an extra high-back booster seat you can simply stuff under your seat. And as mentioned above, you can fit three kids across smaller back seats when at least one is wearing the travel vest.
1. Slip the vest onto your child and close the heavy Velcro front panel, then click the belt and adjust, as you would do with a safety belt.
Optional: Add the height-adjustable head rest for comfort (it's not there for safety).
2a. With shoulder belts: Have your child sit in the seat and open the appropriate shoulder belt cover (as shown), then route the shoulder belt through the metal guide. Then route the lap portion through the two slots on your child's lap (as shown below). Buckle the seat belt, pull up the shoulder belt to tighten as needed.
2b. With lap-only belt and tether: Hook the tether strap (included) to the two metal latch loops on the shoulders of the travel vest. Have your child sit and route the lap belt through the two guides on the lower portion of the vest, then tighten the belt. Attach the other end of the tether belt to the corresponding anchor point in the car and tighten the strap.
While it sounds great that you can use this with lap-only belts as well as shoulder belts (unlike safety boosters), you are only supposed to use it with lap belts when a top tether may also be used (note: tether now included only with theRS2 model travel vest, not the new RS3 model travel vest). In the wider world of travel, many lap-only belts you encounter will be in older vehicles that pre-date car seat tethers.
Depending on the vehicle and your child's size, he may have trouble seeing out the windows. For kids that get car sick, this could be a problem. On the flip side, kids who get car sick riding in side position seats may have the advantage when able to use the RideSafer vest in the center position (with a shoulder or lap-only belt and tether) and enjoy a better view out the front window.
As far as fit is concerned overall, many parents have reported that the large was REALLY large on their children, and considering that the small overlaps in size up to 60 lbs. or 52" tall, you might go with the small unless your child is already well into the second size range. As you can see, it's also a great fit for my lanky 6-year-old.
Bottom line and my suggestions
Yes, kids, my own included, continue to surprise us with their love of the "astronaut vest," and while I was in hysterics watching as my oldest daughter insisted on wearing our vest with the head rest even as she did her homework at the kitchen table, as a grown-up traveler I feel a little silly about the double dose of American flags printed on the shoulder belt covers.
Still, both kids love it enough to fight over who gets to wear it. I love it enough to wrestle with getting a second for our family for upcoming travels. Since I always like to include a few suggestions to the manufacturer for future enhancements--and in case anyone wants to jump onboard with a "Travels with Baby edition." Here's how I would improve upon this already great travel product:

The Diono RadianRXT is a folding car seat, which can be used from birth, and later converts to a belt-positioning booster seat. With its narrow width and FAA-approval, it is airplane-cabin friendly when used forward-facing (seat height makes it tricky to recline rear-facing in narrow seat rows). When not needed it folds and can be carried by a shoulder strap. Read all about it in Best Convertible Car Seats for travel.

Charlottesville's Children, Youth and Family Services celebrated the end of the school year Wednesday for their Play Partners program. They hosted an event for their young students under the nTelos Pavilion.
The Play Partners program prepares children ages two through five for kindergarten by developing a love for learning and reading. Program Development Director Allison Henderson says the program makes sure no children in the community get left behind at this critical age for development.
"We want kids to really leave with a love of learning and a love of reading while increasing their vocabulary, learning how to listen, learning how to stay still in the classroom, and so we're really pleased that all of our outcomes show that at the end of the year," said Henderson.
She says the program blends learning and playtime so students associate education and fun together.

Advice from Admissions
Admissions counselors are the people who will evaluate your application and determine whether you are accepted to the university. You have the opportunity to talk with them (do it!) and they've shared these 10 tips on the process.
Before you Apply
Take ownership of the college application and decision process. Be confident in what you're looking for and apply to schools from there.
Think about what you want from a college experience. It's up to you to decide where you will fit in.
Don't limit yourself to one standardized test. The SAT/ACT are different, and you want to give yourself every opportunity to do well.
Visit as many campuses as you can! The university you choose will be home for the next four years.
Keep in touch with your guidance counselor if you want to stay ahead of the game! We channel a lot of info through them.
Don't wear another university's t-shirt or golf shirt to a campus tour.
Ask about scholarships! You will be considered for College of Charleston scholarships so long as we receive your application package by December 1. HOWEVER, there are many other sources of scholarships that aren't tied to the College. Ask for suggestions!
On the Application
Take the opportunity to write a personal statement. Tell us more about yourself - something that doesn't appear elsewhere in the app.
It's ok to reuse a well-crafted essay, but make sure you make the necessary changes. For ex., if you tell us how much you love our college, make sure you get our name right!
Do not use an email address that is in poor taste. Be professional!

Health & Safety:
I haven't heard about anyone getting raped or anything like that on campus, but there have been incidents where students have been mugged or bothered by people of the city outside their dorms or on a street nearby.
Health & Safety:
I've used the health services at one point when I suspected I had a UTI, and they helped me find a doctor that took my health insurance and helped make an appointment for me same day. Everyone here is very aware and well-educated on sexual assault, and as a result I've never seen or heard of any happening.
Health & Safety:
The buildings are very safe. Sometimes the surrounding areas are not as safe as they could be.
Health & Safety:
The initial security on campus is very good
Health & Safety:
Very safety. There are many CCTV in the campus and security. The school take the safety issue seriously.

Last Wednesday the wrestlers traveled to Holliston to take on the defending Tri-Valley League and Division 3 Central Sectional champions and Division 3 State Dual Meet Runners-up. The Lancers knew that a win there would be essential in their quest to regain the league title and that the Panthers would be prepared to do battle. When the dust cleared, Norton had taken a hard-fought 46-24 victory and a major step toward winning another league title.
With no wrestler at 106 lbs., Norton gave up a forfeit in the first weight class.
Sophomore Ahrayah Saintius fought to the final buzzer at 113 lbs., but lost an exciting 17-10 decision giving Holliston an early 9-0 early lead. But here they met the iron of the Lancers' lineup and were defeated in six straight matches, giving Norton a 28-9 lead.
Senior co-captain Brett Gallagher needed only 35 seconds to pin his man at 120 lbs. Senior 126 pounder John Norton took five minutes, but also pinned his man. Senior Cam Hale followed up at 132 lbs. with a decisive 8-2 win.
The key match-up of the night came at 138 lbs. between senior co-captains and league all-stars from both teams, but it was Norton's John Royle who came from behind in the last period to win a critical 8-5 decision. Scott Coleman dominated another Holliston co-captain at 145 lbs. with a 13-2 major decision. But the big upset came at 152 lbs. when senior James Cuneo, down 19-10, reversed and pinned his man with one minute to go.
The Panthers made a desperate bid in the final five matches, but managed only two more wins.
Surprisingly, they forfeited to junior Jack Cuneo at 170 lbs. The Lancers then needed only one more win to clinch the meet, and that honor went to freshman Elliott Johnson at 182 lbs.
Losing 1-0 at the start of the last period, Johnson shot a takedown, put his man to his back and pinned him as the team and Norton fans went wild. Though Holliston got pins in two of the last three matches, it was to no avail. Junior Stephen Hudson's pin at 220 lbs. accounted for the last of the Lancers' points.
Norton's record is now 8-1 overall and 2-0 in the league. Hale, Coleman and Jack Cuneo all remain undefeated. The Lancers compete Tuesday and Wednesday in the 32-team Marshfield Tournament where they finished fifth last year and again on Saturday when they seek to defend their championship in the 12-team Middleboro Tournament.
The Lancers are 4-0 the JV level, with Brett Pike, Jared Marvel, Branden Pike, J.T. Taylor, Rob Butler, Myles McAlpine and Brandon Deal all still undefeated. They will compete on Thursday at the Marshfield JV Tournament and again on Saturday at the Middleboro Tournament.

Movie News
A Movie A Day: Quint on BORDER INCIDENT (1949)
What is cheaper than time, senor? Everybody has the same amount.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today's installment of A Movie A Day.
[For those now joining us, A Movie A Day is my attempt at filling in gaps in my film knowledge. My DVD collection is thousands strong, many of them films I haven't seen yet, but picked up as I scoured used DVD stores. Each day I'll pull a previously unseen film from my collection or from my DVR and discuss it here. Each movie will have some sort of connection to the one before it, be it cast or crew member.]
Today we follow the great Ricardo Montalban over from yesterday's MYSTERY STREET to today's BORDER INCIDENT.
I totally flipped for yesterday's AMAD. It's a perfectly crafted murder mystery populated with awesome characters that would have been over the top if the actors weren't so good in the roles. Today's movie is a slight change of pace. It's not nearly as fun, even if Montalban is just as charming as he was in MYSTERY STREET.
BORDER INCIDENT might not be as fun or as high on the rewatchability factor, but it's no less of a movie for it, just a different one.
This time out Montalban is once again a cop, but this time a cop from Mexico who joins forces with a US cop as the two countries work to curb illegal immigration during the harvest seasons in Baja California.
At first I was thinking Lou Dobbs must have willed this movie into existence, but then it paints a much more nuanced picture of these farmers than Dobbs would have. The reason for the investigation is to stop these men from essentially paying to murder themselves. They pay a heavy fee to be ferried across the border and then are led into a form of slavery or are picked off as they recross, pockets filled with money from their labors.
And this is pretty damn harsh. The movie opens with one of these scenes, as immigrant workers cross back over and are spotted by the dirty bastards who originally led them over. It's a perfect spot, apparently. It's easy to evade the American patrols and there's a handy quicksand pit where the baddies can dispose of the murdered men after stripping everything of value of their persons.
Montalban works undercover as a Mexican farmer trying to figure out an in that plugs him into the underworld. At the same time the US agent, Bearnes, played by George Murphy, watches his back and shadows Montalban as he delves deeper and deeper into the dark world of human trafficking.
The main tension of the flick is what you'd expect from an undercover cop movie. Montalban and Murphy both have to work to keep their covers. Montalban that of a lowly farmer looking for work and Murphy an escaped Con hiding in Mexico, pockets filled with stolen crossing cards that are worth their weight in gold to the men who run the racket.
Of course, these crossing cards are all recorded and the goal is to get them into the hands of the baddies so they can track them as they distribute.
That's the plot part, but director Anthony Mann and writer John C. Higgins (ROBINSON CRUSOE ON MARS) smartly focus on the characters. The plot would barely cover 40 minutes and I found my favorite aspect of the movie were the relationships. There's a moment where both undercover cops are at the same place at the same time (after both thinking the other was killed) and have to sneak around the guards to share information. Great, tense moment.
Montalban's core relationship, though, is with a regular immigrant who doesn't want to cross illegally, but is fed up of having waited 6 weeks trying to get his crossing card, fighting for the limited space amongst a sea of like-men. This is Juan Garcia, played by James Mitchell and he's basically the innocent of the story. He never would have joined up with the crossing party if he hadn't told Montalban where to go, so Montalban finds himself incredibly protective of this guy. It's a very interesting friendship that we see develop, one predicated on deception since Montalban can not blow his cover.
The whole thing culminates on a few different back-stabbings amongst the bad guys and a very well shot nighttime tussle as a truckload of farmers tangle with the heavily armed bad guys who are set up to pick them off in the canyon of death from the beginning. And yes, the quicksand makes a return appearance for a brutal hand to hand fight. Let's just say that you don't want to take on Ricardo Montalban in a hand to hand fight, especially when there's a deep quicksand pit nearby.
There are some surprisingly unpredictable turns this film makes, including the death of one character that I was certain would see the movie to its conclusion… and it's a horrible death, too. Pretty shocking actually, even by today's standards.
Final Thoughts: Like I said in the intro, this is a really strong movie, but not nearly as fun as MYSTERY STREET. The photography is great, the direction is fine, the performances are solid and the pacing works for the movie, it's just not nearly as enjoyable to me. I think the movie might have suffered a little bit following up MYSTERY STREET, but that's how the dice fall sometimes. I'm still very glad I saw it and feel very comfortable recommending it, especially to any Montalbaniphiles out there.
Here's what we have lined up for the next week:
Tuesday, November 25th: THE TIN STAR (1957)
Wednesday, November 26th: ON THE BEACH (1959)
Thursday, November 27th: TWELVE O'CLOCK HIGH (1949)
Friday, November 28th: GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT (1947)
Saturday, November 29th: PANIC IN THE STREETS (1950)
Sunday, November 30th: THE HOT ROCK (1972)
Monday, December 1st: WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? (1966)
That brings us to the end of our Montalban detour, but hopefully we'll be seeing more of him in future AMADs.
See you folks tomorrow for Anthony Mann's western THE TIN STAR starring Henry Fonda, Anthony Perkins and Jason's mama, Betsy Palmer!

I think you'll have to see this one again Quint
by Continentalop
It might not have been as "fun" as Mystery Street, but Border Incident is a much superior film, in plot, characters, look and direction. I am surprised you didn't have a much more rave review of the film. I mean, this might be the best of the Noir Westerns, and also of that rare sub-genre Agri-Noir (which the only other member might be Thieves Highway). <p> I am also surprised you didn't single out some of the other people who worked on it, including the director, the great Anthony Mann, director of such noir classics as T-Men, Boomerang, Side Street, He Walked By Night and latter the director of the classic Jimmy Stewart Westerns Naked Spur, The Man From Laramie, Winchester '76, and others. The man is one of the great directors of all time (just watch the Budd sequences in Kill Bill 2 to see his influence) and this is one of his best works. SPOILERS: Just look the murder scene you mentioned in your review; Mann is able to make that one of the most sit-in-your-chair-an- squirm, tension builders ever without coping out. Plus, can you get any more brutal than being run over by a tractor? <p> This was also one of his collaborations with legendary cinematographer John Alton (Raw Deal, Big Combo, the Spiritualist) and his work here really shine. Both the cinematography and mise-en-scéne are flawless, and Mann and Alton are able to great landscapes that are wide, not open, meaning that you are an open target whenever you are out in them. <p> Plus lets not forget the villains of the piece, Charles McGraw (The Narrow Margin) and Howard De Silva (The Lost Weekend), who play two really great heavies. The best part is that they are not one dimensional, and have their own plots going on against each other. <p> I am not criticizing your review, Quint, because I understand that you have a lot of other things on your plate than just fulfilling your AMAD column, so I can understand if you sometimes don't go to in-depth on a movie. Plus I can't criticize you for not loving Border Incident as much as I do because obviously everyone walks away looking at a movie completely different from another person. Also, I don't know what types of external events might have hampered your enjoyment of this movie. However, I will say when you get a chance you might want to revisit this one; maybe next time you'll find it much more powerful.

A Sioux Falls man was arrested after being caught collecting ditch weed on the side of the road.
At 11 am Friday, an officer was in the area of North Six Mile Road and East Maple Street. The officer was driving north and noticed a Mitsubishi Endeavor pulled over on the west side of the road with the driver's door open.
The officer said he noticed a man on the side of the road grabbing branches and stems from wild marijuana plants growing in the ditch. The officer said the man was putting a lot of it in the back of the SUV.
The officer made a u-turn and stopped the driver before he could get into the car. The officer said 411 grams of marijuana, or .9 pounds, were found in the SUV and a loaded gun was found on the vehicle's dashboard.
Austin Bohlke, 22, of Sioux Falls was arrested for Possession of Marijuana—half a pound to less than one pound, which is a felony. Bohlke was also charged with committing a felony with a firearm.

The Lean Years
Tuesday, September 21, 2010 at 10:38 am
Yesterday, the National Bureau of Economic Research's Business Cycle Dating Committee — the team of economists that determines whether the economy is contracting (in a recession) or expanding — announced that the recession officially ended in June 2009.
That means little to the 14.9 million Americans out of work, of course. Unemployment tends to lag recessions, meaning that it takes some time for businesses to rehire workers after an economic shock, and in 28 percent of U.S. households, one member is still seeking a full-time job.
But how long until businesses start hiring again? Yesterday, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities put out this ominous chart:
As the chart shows, it might take months and months for the economy to return to full employment. In reality, the chart is not quite ominous enough: Most economic evidence implies that the United States won't return to an unemployment rate in the five percent range for years and years. Economists at the Kansas Fed examined the phenomenon in a paper called "How Will Unemployment Fare Following the Recession," released at the end of last year.
First, they note that after deep recessions, the U.S. economy tends to rebound quickly. Why? Businesses initially react strongly to the bad recession, laying off workers, producing fewer goods, and selling off their inventories. When demand returns, those businesses need to hire workers and produce a lot of goods again, and fast, to keep up.
But, unfortunately, that dynamic has not been true for the recent recessions. Businesses lay off workers and stop producing goods as the recession hits. But when the recovery happens, businesses just make do with less — adding hours to existing workers, and rebuilding inventory slowly. This produces the "jobless recoveries" you hear about.
Moreover, recoveries tend to take longer after recessions paired with banking crises, like the Great Depression. And, yes, this recession kicked off with a massive meltdown on Wall Street, followed by woes in the commercial banking sector and the collapse of hundreds of small banks.
What does that mean? Years until employment recovers. By the Fed economists' projections, the U.S. unemployment rate should hit 6.5 percent — a still-elevated rate — in 2018.

I'm looking at the Top 25 overview on SI.com's CFB page this morning, and a snippet of a headline catches my eye. I follow the link and sure enough, the headline reads: "Jon Wilner: Stanford Cardinal will upset Pac-10-leading Oregon Ducks"
I don't know if anyone is familiar with Mr. Wilner, but his voting for the AP poll could be charitably described as 'suspect'. The guy doesn't seem to have a friggin' clue about fundamentals of football, and is prone to chase whatever flavor of the week happens to be the hottest. This, however, crosses the line into blatant homerism and outright idiocy.
If you followed the second link above, you may note that Mr. Wilner gave Oregon second place in his AP poll ballot. Conveniently, five days later, he pens a column where he predicts that Stanford will upset the vaunted Ducks. In case you hadn't noticed- JON WILNER WRITES FOR STANFORD'S HOMETOWN PAPER. It's kind of like making a straw man argument, except that in this case, you're creating a strong team out of straw only to have the locals knock it down. I always thought Wilner was a wee bit off in his opinions, but when the reasoning behind them becomes so transparent, I can only take comfort in the fact that at the end of the day, the AP poll counts for nothing.

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - Lynch Street was once a hub of activity and a corridor for the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's. Things have changed, but there is an effort underway to get a dialogue going about the street named after Mississippi's first black congressman elected during reconstruction.
The public was invited to take part in the "Lynch Street Civil Rights Corridor Discussion" with an eye on future development Thursday.
Curnis Upkins, III, Program Manager for The Lynch Street Initiative said, "It's a lot of history here, but that's just a component of it. We also want to get to a point where, while we're highlighting these components of Lynch Street we also want to try to encourage more businesses to set up shop here on Lynch to serve the community and the students at JSU."
Thursday night's dialogue is sponsored by the Jackson State University Office of the President, The Fannie Lou Hamer Institute, The Veterans of Mississippi Civil Rights Movement and The Margaret Walker Alexander National Research Center.

On January first, Northern Illinois University's Huskies will battle Florida State in the Discover Orange Bowl.
To support their team, NIU students are making the journey all the way to Miami. Two days and 1,500 miles of open road are all that separates students from Sun Life stadium.
"We are really excited! We're going to the Orange Bowl," says Justin Sbeih
NIU President John Peters and other school leaders wanted to help students cheer for their team, in person.
The cost of cross country travel can be a bit high for the average college student, That's why the school offered a package deal.
John Jones, NIU Student Affairs Associate Vice President says "significant support did come form Alumni as well as from the university itself."
With that financial help, round trip bus tickets, two nights in a hotel, and three meals cost students only 150 dollars.
NIU's athletic department is picking up the tab for game tickets.
At such an affordable price, 1,300 students bought tickets filling 26 buses.
The first 500 tickets sold out in under 10 minutes. High demand spurred the university to add 800 more.
Busses will drive for the next 24 hours. Student Dave Reese says sleeping, isn't something you'll find on his to-do list. "No, up the whole time, we're partying all the way down there. "
Another student, Daihee Cho, agrees. " I got a lot of movies in my laptop and there's an outlet right here so I'm gonna watch a lot of movies. then she has a lot of comic books so I think I'm gonna read a comic book too.
Now en route... The only thing students have to worry about is the game itself. "Yeah we're gonna win, we're gonna cover that spread and we're gonna kill them!" says Reese.
Jones also adds, many students who were not able to buy bus package tickets through the school are still making it to the game. But they will be taking their own cars or flying.

ALLEN PARK Ś ItÆs not Jim, itÆs us.
ThatÆs the consensus in the Detroit LionsÆ locker room as the buzz around town is whether coach Jim Schwartz could lose his job when the season ends, especially if the Lions (7-7) donÆt make the playoffs.
The players are only pointing fingers at themselves.
If reporters would quit asking them about it, theyÆd be all focused on beating the New York Giants on Sunday.
Reggie Bush, who is not afraid to speak out, reiterated on Wednesday that he feels discipline is an issue in losing four out of the last five. He first said it on a radio show on Tuesday.
By discipline, he means on-the-field actions.
ōItÆs not a coachÆs thing. ItÆs a playersÆ thing,ÆÆ Bush said on Wednesday. ōWe can do a better job all across the board. As far as an offense standpoint, turn the ball over and thatÆs the discipline issue and thatÆs something that we have to correct because obviously, as you see, itÆll lose you games.ö
Bush has played for a variety of coaches who focus on different areas when it comes to discipline. Dolphins coach Joe Philbin was a stickler on uniforms and wardrobe.
ōCoach Schwartz is a disciplinarian,ÆÆ Bush said. ōHe really focuses on the football field and making sure that we are doing the right thing on the field, especially in practice.ö
Hey, itÆs not like the players are going to blast a coach during the season. ThatÆs a quick bus ticket out of town and could prevent them from finding another job in the NFL.
However, several Lions were passionate in their sentiments about the issues facing the Lions with two games left and a small chance remaining at the playoffs.
They believe in Schwartz.
ōObviously I donÆt want that coach to go anywhere, I love his scheme, the way things go, but I donÆt think that has anything to do with right now,ÆÆ Ndamukong Suh said. ōWhat we need to do is focus on getting these next two wins.ÆÆ
Suh has played for Schwartz and his staff for fur seasons. Cornerback Rashean Mathis is in his first year in Detroit, but his 10th in the NFL.
ōThereÆs nobody in this world wants better for me than I want myself,Ā and you have to feel like that as a professional athlete,ÆÆ Mathis said. ōIf youÆre looking for a coach to guide you and correct you in each and every given moment youÆre in the wrong sport.
ōYou have to be able to discipline yourself, you have to be able to discipline ourselves, we have to make the plays when the plays are there to be made.
ōWhen we watch film we have to be more critical of ourselves than any coach could,ÆÆ Mathis said. ōItÆs their job to be critical but as a professional athlete to be at your optimum you have to be more critical of yourself than anyone else.ÆÆ
And, like the others, he said the struggles are on the players.
ōWe as players have to execute. ThereÆs nothing Jim has done to make us lose any ball games, nothing,ÆÆ Mathis said. ōto put that on his back. We as players, IÆm sure IÆm speaking for my locker room, we as players take that burden off his back and shoulder it ourselves.ÆÆ
Wide receiver Nate Burleson has been singing the same song for weeks. The losses are due to physical mistakes. ItÆs not the coaching.
ōYou look at all the losses weÆve had itÆs come down to plays we didnÆt make,ÆÆ Burleson said. ōIt seems like thereÆs always a point in the game where we had a chance to extend the lead or put ourselves in position to control the rest of the game and we donÆt do that.
ōYou canÆt look further than the guys wearing the jerseys, maybe itÆs just older guys talking, we want to shoulder the responsibility more than anything I think thatÆs the best way to look at it anyway, the cowardÆs way out is trying to point the finger in other directions.
ōIf anyone wants to give criticism give it to the players not the coaches they donÆt suit up,ÆÆ Burleson said. ōThey make the calls and put us in a position to be successful and weÆve got to capitalize and make those plays happen.ÆÆ
Knowing the problem and correcting it are different.
Focus seems to be the missing ingredient. ThatÆs focus for a whole four quarters.
ōIÆm never going to point the finger to the coaches, maybe thatÆs me manning up saying, æPut it on us, put is on me.Æ When you look at the games, look at the losses you can almost always point out a few physical errors we made. ... IÆm not going to sit here and say coaching needs to be better or Jim needs to do a better job. Nah, itÆs plain and simple, itÆs plays we need to make as a team and we havenÆt made those plays.ÆÆ

While touring an amazon dot com warehouse in Chattanooga Tennessee Tuesday, President Obama made an offer he hoped republicans couldn't refuse.
The President wants to cut the corporate tax rate and in exchange use money generated by that reform to invest in manufacturing and construction jobs.
"I am laying out my ideas to give the middle class a better shot in a 21st-century economy. Now it's time for republicans to lay out their ideas," Mr. Obama said.
His proposal comes as congress faces an impasse on negotiations to reduce the deficit, or face a government shut down this fall.
The latest housing report shows home prices in may jumped more than 12-percent compared to one year ago.
Meanwhile thousands of the nation's least paid workers are demanding a higher minimum wage.
"Where we still have a lot of problems is in the job market where 20 million people are underemployed," said economist Jared Bernstein.
But republicans say Obama's plan will hurt the economy by not giving small businesses and families the same tax break as big business.
"It's just a further left version of a widely panned plan he proposed two years ago this time with extra goodies for tax-and-spend liberals," said republican Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
Republicans oppose lowering taxes while increasing spending else where they say Obama's latest plan isn't a serious attempt at compromise.
Wednesday President Obama plans to sit down with democrats in Congress.
At the end of the week, lawmakers leave town without a solution to the budget fight.

The Housing Development Corporation in Huntington has taken old schools in Kanawha County and transformed them into low income senior citizen housing.
Now it plans to do the same to an old Marion County School.
It is raising funds to purchase the Miller Junior High School building from the Marion County Board of Education.
The Board has unanimously agreed not to sell the property to anyone else, while the HDC raises the funds.
"They asked for an extension to December 31st of 2013. So we will give them what is now an additional year to see if they can get those funds secured," said Gary Price, Marion County Schools Superintendent.
Price said the HDC has presented examples of buildings it has renovated.
He said it would be a tremendous addition to the community.

Titanic Remembered exhibition to mark ship disaster's centenary
11:51am Tuesday 20th December 2011 in Exhibitions By Matthew Jenkin
THE National Maritime Museum in Greenwich will mark the centenary of the sinking of Titanic with a small exhibition.
Titanic Remembered will tell the stories of some of those who survived the tragedy and explore how that fateful night in 1912 has become the most famous maritime disaster in history.
Running from March 8, the show features letters, photographs and objects, from a whistle which was reportedly used by survivors clinging to a lifeboat to attract attention to slippers and a musical toy pig.

Does anybody have tickets to the All Day I Dream party this Sunday? Need two! Hook a TA up.
La Galeria on Facebook

I need 2 tickets to lee burridge also, will pay more than the abovementioned poster
I've got a pair. $300 and their yours
had a fantastic time on the ADID boat party. It wasn't crowded at all, multiple bars made it easy to get drinks with relatively no wait, and they had multiple bathrooms.
Weather was great, albeit a bit hot in the beginning, the rain at the end was a perfect way to cool off.
Lee Burridge did a great job in the small time frame he had, all in all a very nice summer mix.
Also, the boat is fantastic!
These ADID parties are truly something different than any other party I have EVER been to- except for the one held in Beekman! But, they should be relocated back to where they began, Brooklyn. But the way it's grown in proportion, the only way I could see that happening is by limiting the capacity and that just wouldn't be fair to those who would want to experience his realm.
He'll be back again next month, and the following (for the last time this year). So, let's see what he's got up his sleeve this time.
I def want to check ADID party since I havent done so yet.
ADID was good. Didn't spend enough time actually dancing but I was hanging out with my friend having a good time.
The drink tickets were dumb though. Well, non-well and then premium, but there was no distincation what was what. I gave the girl a premium ticket and asked for a LI Iced Tea and she starts pouring in Absolut. I let it go but really? I made up for later by getting Macallan 12 with a standard ticket. I also found three more tickets and a party favor on the ground. You people drop a lot of shit on boats.
