Princess puts Royal seal on City status
2:17pm Wednesday 5th December 2012 in News
PRINCESS Anne visited Chelmsford for a formal reception celebrating the city status.
The Princess Royal was greeted by dignatories at Hylands House, including Chelmsford mayor Christopher Kingsley and Essex County Council chairman Kay Twitchen.
While at the venue the princess met up with the bid team behind Chelmsford's city status proposal, along with cabinet members of Chelmsford Council.
After watching a presentation about the successful city status bid, she was then introduced to eight different groups of people representing the community, including volunteers, churches and businesses.
Mr Kingsley said it was a fantastic experience having the princess visit the city.
He said: "Clearly we were delighted we had the royal visitor and I think it was a very well organised day.
"We are also very fortunate to have Hylands House available to us for such occasions as this because of its scenery and and the fact we had lots of space for her highness's helicopter to land.
"It is a great honour to have this city status bestowed upon us through the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations this year.
"Princess Anne did spend a lot of time with us and she spoke to everyone there at Hylands House who she was introduced to, which I think everyone was delighted with."
The letters patent handed over from the House of Lords to the council to confirm Chelmsford as a city was displayed at the house, along with a Chelmsford Monopoly board.
Before leaving the venue, Princess Anne signed the council's formal visitor book.

Greene County's Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is planning a multimillion dollar expansion.
Tuesday night, the board of supervisors will consider a request to rezone 25 acres of the vehicle research center's Dairy Road property near Ruckersville to allow for industrial use.
The institute tells NBC29 its board has approved up to $30 million to expand its outdoor test track.
If supervisors approve the rezoning, IIHS says construction could begin in 2013.

Hi all,
I am using the ecommerce module and I have products that are displayed in multiple groups. e.g. some socks are in both womens and underwear.
The problem is the SortLinks (Showing 1 - 12 of 32 Products) is not recognising the products from the other group.
So if I have 40 items in 'womens', 32 items and 8 items from 'socks' the SortLinks is only counting the original 32 items from 'womens' and is not counting the 8 items from the 'socks' group.
Does anybody know what I need to do to fix this? Thanks

Hey all,
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Did I explain it in a way that makes sense?

Hi Ambient
I have done some work on this on Product Groups ... see: http://code.google.com/p/silverstripe-ecommerce/source/browse/branches/ssu/code/ProductGroup.php line 105. I am not sure if that will help you - but perhaps it will. You can see this in action here: www.silverstripe-ecommerce.com

Thanks Nicolaas,
I played around with it a bit but my php is pretty poor so no joy I'm afraid. I wasn't sure exactly how much of the code to copy and how much of the original code to replace
Kinda wierd why the ecommerce module doesn't recognise the product count if it comes from a different group.

Because Acme was inventing new hardware, there was a steady stream of changes. The tightly bound software specification meant that with each change, no matter how reasonable, had to be traced up and down the document chain to comply with FAA regulations. Hardware specifications came from system specifications, leading to software specifications, test plans, software design documents, test cases, software modules, and right down to lines of code and individual tests.
We spent most of our time tracking changes and updating documentation. I invested most of my time with engineering change orders and daily project plan updates. When we finally got three prototype hardware systems, the same software build wouldn't run without significant changes.
Topping it off, we had to work with Bob. He swore when we told him that the hardware wasn't the same, he cursed when I sent change orders, and he threatened us constantly -- from killing the project to lawsuits for our mismanagement.
Bob also came to our shop daily for a status meeting. He would bring my project plan, printed out in color on a four-foot sheet of paper, roll it out on the conference room table, pull out a red marker, and make a huge line up and down on the current date. Then while gesturing and scribbling he would yell, "I just <bleeping> want to know, are we <bleeping> on this <bleeping> side of the <bleeping> line, or are we <bleeping> on this <bleeping> side of the <bleeping> line."
I realized that Bob's theatrics were an attempt to get me to react. Fortunately, that isn't my nature. After Bob was done, I would present the change orders to him. He would sign them (more profanity) or throw them on the floor and stomp on them, only to sign them some other day.
To get Bob and his theatrics out of the way, I started including Acme's president and the chairman of the company board, as well as our senior management in short daily updates. Pretty soon, there was open dialogue at all levels, not just one funneled through Bob. Progress was being made.
I focused on cutting as much out of the project as possible and locking down details as quickly as feasible. We managed to get the project out of our shop and approved by the FAA.
Through the experience, I learned a tremendous amount about staying cool, not letting someone else's bad manners influence me, and keeping my eye on the ultimate goal. Oh, and we never did another project with Acme again.

PLANT CITY - Investigators converged on a pair of Plant City homes Tuesday, looking for evidence that the dramatic saga of a missing lottery winner ended with his murder.
Law enforcement officials from Hillsborough and Polk counties converged on two neighboring yards along Highway 60 near Farkas Road, just west of Turkey Creek Road.
Detectives with metal detectors spent the day combing the scene, looking for evidence in connection with the case of long-missing lotto winner Abraham Shakespeare.
The dig marks yet another twist in the case that has made headlines across the country.
After winning the Florida Lottery a few years ago, Shakespeare was accused of stealing the winning ticket from a former co-worker. A jury took just two hours to clear him, and he walked away with $12 million, after taxes.
But Shakespeare has been missing since last April, and detectives say a significant chunk of his money seems to be gone, too.
His mother told FOX 13 she hoped that he had simply moved away to enjoy his winnings, as he told her he planned to do. But Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd believes Shakespeare was murdered.
Polk County investigators have named Dee Dee Moore as a person of interest in the case, and Sheriff Judd has gone so far as to call her a "con artist."
Detectives say Moore befriended Shakespeare, set up a joint bank account, and a few months later, moved the money into her own account.
Monday, a Lakeland police officer was arrested for allegedly providing her with confidential information about Shakespeare.
One of the properties being searched belongs to a staffing company run by Moore; the other is owned by her boyfriend and houses an attorney with connections to both Moore and Shakespeare. Investigators say the dig at the scene could take several days.
"We all have a lot of unanswered questions that we're trying to get the answers to, and we just don't have them yet," offered Colonel Albert Frost of the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.
"We've been hearing it and hearing it and hearing it and I thought it was too weird," neighbor Maryanne Plattner added. "Then when they said they were looking for the body, I thought, 'How much of a body can there be after a year?"

Taking the boy to his first Halos game at Yankees Stadium 4/14, which got me thinking - he needs new Angels gear for this season. Stuck in Central PA as we are, I can't run out to Target to grab him something and the selection at mlb.com is horrendous. No luck on ebay either.
Would anyone be interested in participating in an infant/toddler Angels clothing exchange? I have a few newborn onesies and a sweet zip up hoodie size 6 mos. that he can't wear anymore. As is the case with most baby clothes, they were hardly worn. I'd be happy to send them off to whoever can use them. In exchange, I'd love to hear from anyone who has anything 12-18 mos. that they can part with.

Foster international trade
The international dimension of European standards fosters European industry's global competitiveness, boosts global trade and provides for a level playing field at global level.
All European National Standards Bodiess (NSBs) abide by the WTO-Technical Barriers to Trade agreement. It is based on a number of principles, for example that there should be no trade barriers as a result of national standards, ensuring free movement of goods between states. The Dresden Agreement was drawn up between CENELELC and IEC to avoid duplication between standardization at international and European levels, for the benefit of contributors, and users of, standards and foster barrier-free trade.
International, regional and national standards bodies complement each other. Close co-operation among all three levels is required for the adoption of international standards at regional and national level.
CENELEC endeavours to increase the promotion of the use of international standards through its different agreements with third countries, such as for example on a regional level through so-called memoranda of understanding, as well as through specific Visibility and Technical Assistance projects.

Well… it's getting to be that time of year again. The amount of natural light is very limited and I have to figure out my light box all over again. If you're wondering how I set mine up, it's kind of like the light box found at this link. You'd think after taking so many pictures I'd have that figured all out?? It's completely dark out by 7:40 and pretty soon it's going to start at 5:00. Sad, very sad. Why can't Winter be like summer and it still be light until almost 9 pm outside?
On to the potatoes… these potatoes are probably the best potatoes I've ever had. They're chuck full of bad things like butter, sour cream, cheese, and bacon. Which… I don't even plan on trying to make a low fat version of this. It wouldn't be the same. I left out the bacon because I didn't have any in the house and I almost should have gone to the store to get some. With the bacon in these potatoes, they would have been a meal all by its self. I pretty much ate these as a meal all by itself too. I can't wait to have them for left overs tomorrow for lunch. The skin gets so crispy and with the salt on it, it almost tastes like a potato chip.
Thank you to the Pioneer Woman for the recipe. I've been finding so many recipes from your shows that I've really liked so far and hopefully Food Network keeps you on for a second season. It's already starting to get slim on Saturday mornings because they start showing shows like Chopped at 11:30 am in the morning. I'd rather see more cooking shows.
Ingredients from Ree Drummond
8 baking potatoes, washed
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 sticks salted butter
1 cup bacon bits (fry your own!)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup Cheddar or Jack cheese (or a mix of both), plus more for topping
1 cup whole milk
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
3 green onions, sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Rub them with the canola oil and bake for 1 hour, making sure they're sufficiently cooked through.
Slice the butter into pats. Place in a large mixing bowl and add the bacon bits and sour cream. Remove the potatoes from the oven. Lower the heat to 350 degrees F.
With a sharp knife, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scrape out the insides into the mixing bowl, being careful not to tear the shell. Leave a small rim of potato intact for support. Lay the hollowed out potato shells on a baking sheet.
Smash the potatoes into the butter, bacon and sour cream. Add the cheese, milk, seasoned salt, green onions and black pepper to taste and mix together well. (IMPORTANT: If you plan to freeze the twice-baked potatoes, do NOT add the green onions.)
Fill the potato shells with the filling. I like to fill the shells so they look abundant and heaping. Top each potato with a little more grated cheese and pop 'em in the oven until the potato is warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes.

Schneider Named SPC Director
Russell Schneider has been named the new director of NOAA's Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla. SPC is the nation's forecast center for high-impact weather, including tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, wildfires, hazardous winter weather and excessive rainfall. SPC is part of the NOAA National Weather Service and one of nine National Centers for Environmental Prediction.
Schneider has been the science support branch chief at SPC since 1997. The branch is responsible for maintaining SPC's leadership in science and technology and for supporting its national forecast mission. This includes collaborative scientific research efforts in the NOAA Hazardous Weather Testbed, a facility designed to support collaboration between research scientists and operational weather forecasters on specific topics that are of mutual interest, and accelerate the transition of promising new meteorological insights and technologies into advances in forecasting.
Schneider has spent his entire career at NOAA's National Weather Service, first working at NCEP's Environmental Modeling Center and then moving to the Hydrometeorological Prediction Center as its first science and operations officer. He earned his bachelor's, master's and Ph.D. degrees in atmospheric science from the University of Wisconsin at Madison.
"I have had a lifelong fascination with severe weather since a series of major tornado outbreaks in 1965 and 1967 near my childhood home in suburban Chicago," Schneider said. "This fascination continues with every position at the National Weather Service and fuels my focus on improving severe weather warnings for the public."
Author and co-author of numerous professional publications, Schneider also served as an associate editor of the American Meteorological Society Journal Weather and Forecasting for over a decade. He led the Storm Prediction Center's efforts to improve severe weather forecasts issued by the National Weather Service and received a Department of Commerce Bronze Medal for his contributions in 2007.
Schneider replaces former SPC director Joseph Schaefer, who retired in January.

Group B is synonymous with a short-lived period in Rally where light regulation and few restrictions on car development led to manufacturers producing some of the most exciting cars that the sport has ever seen. Group B cars have since entered Rally folklore since cars with their astonishing power couldn't have been developed during any other era of the sport. Sadly, these iconic cars were involved in an increasing number of accidents, which resulted in the banning of Group B Rally in 1986.Watch the video below or click here for the HD option.

Heartless thieves steal grandmother's food from freezer in raid (From This Is Lancashire)
Heartless thieves steal grandmother's food from freezer in raid
1:53pm Wednesday 2nd April 2014 in News By Sophia Rahman, Reporter
A GRANDMOTHER was left relying on friends and family to help her feed her children and granddaughter after thieves broke into her shed and raided her freezer.
Joanne Albanese, of Burnley, had her weekly food supply stolen by burglars after they broke the door of her shed, leaving her with only a bag of carrots, and a loaf of bread.
Ms Albanese, an events co-ordinator, who lives in Norham Close, spoke of her shock, and sadness, at discovering £200 worth of food, she had bought the previous day, had been taken.
The 50-year-old, who lives with her daughter Amy Edmondson, 26, son Jacob Edmondson, 17, and granddaughter Ava-May Jones, four, said: "I was absolutely gutted.
"I'm a single mum, and I do feel for these people who rely on foodbanks, but we all work hard to put food on the table and mine was stolen.
"They took all the food I had, apart from a bag of carrots and a loaf of bread, and a couple of tins I had in the house.
"I'm guessing they couldn't fit in their bag."
Ms Albanese realised her property had been burgled when Amy left for work, and alerted her to the fact their garden gate was open.
When Ms Albanese went to check if everything was in order, she found the shed door open, and her food gone.
She said: "They broke in overnight on Sunday.
"I think they were probably opportunists looking for food, because they left my grandaughter's bike and other things.
"If it wasn't for my sister, Marie, and other friends and family, we would have had to go to a foodbank.
"It was the end of the month and I'd bought our weekly food, hopefully to see us through until I get paid again.
"I could have had a real problem if I hadn't had such supportive people around me," she added.
Lancashire Police confirmed they were investigating a report of theft, between 11.30pm on March 23, and 8.30am on March 24.

Wrap Factor By BodyBoutique Review
What You Should Know
Click Here To See Our Highest Rated Review
As you may have noticed, there are different approaches to losing weight and getting the body you have always wanted. While a healthy diet and regular exercise are certain to yield results, some people prefer a dietary supplement as well, which can improve weight loss results. However, there are many new-age devices and treatments that are also claimed to slim you down. In this piece we will look at one in particular, which is Wrap Factor by BodyBoutique. This approach to a slimmer body does involve wrapping up in cloths. You may have seen similar treatments in day spas.
- Not applicable.
Product Features
Wrap Factor by BodyBoutique will cost you about $72. What you receive is two bandages, four clay sachets, a measuring tape, an instruction booklet, and some skin-firming cream. This procedure is claimed to draw toxins from your tissue, encourage a slimmer physique, and pull moisture out of the body to reduce water weight. You begin by soaking the bandages in hot water, as well as the clay sachets. Use the clay and the bandages to wrap a particular part of your body, such as the thighs, tummy, or arms. Leave this on for an hour or so, and then remove. Now it is time to apply the cream.
You should notice one or two inches lost from where you applied Wrap Factor by BodyBoutique. It is also normal to sweat when using this product. Some toning and firming may also be evident immediately after using this wrap. It is difficult to state how long this product will last, since it actually depends on how much of it you use with each application. There is no 100% satisfaction guarantee provided with this product.
- Some people might enjoy that this product works like a spa treatment.
- Wrap Factor by BodyBoutique may help draw toxins out of the skin.
- This body wrap treatment is only a quick fix for weight loss and slimming.
- The cost of this weight loss product is high at $72.
- Wrap Factor by BodyBoutique does not assist with actual fat burning.

Ciolli: Walt Handelsman is leaving Newsday
This won't make you laugh.
Newsday's editorial cartoonist Walt Handelsman who has chronicled the foibles and missteps of newsmakers from Hempstead to Hollywood is heading south.
Here's the memo I sent to Newsday employees breaking the news. The search is on to find new artists and new ways to bring political humor to our newspaper and website.

Bessent: Barack Obama needs to get the NSA under control
Buffeted by diplomatic blowback, President Barack Obama now says he may order America's spies to stop tapping the phones of our allies' leaders.
Sen. Diane Feinstein, the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said Monday that's what White House officials told her. But as usual with espionage, there's enough wiggle room in that declaration for a Miley Cyrus twerk-fest.

Dobie: Remembering Lou Reed and his insightful observations about New York
I sat in my backroom last night listening to "Walk on the Wild Side." And "Sweet Jane." And "Dirty Blvd." And "Perfect Day."
Hard to believe Lou Reed is dead.
Whatever his health, whatever his history of hard living, Lou seemed much like the New York City he so deftly chronicled — battered but never beaten, rough on the edges but so soulful inside. He was royalty (of the rock variety)...Read more »
Bessent: Facebook's right to allow beheading videos
The world can be an ugly place, but averting our eyes won't make it any less barbarous.
That's the reality Facebook stepped-up to this week after flip-flopping its way to a policy that will allow beheading videos to appear on the social networking site.
When a video of a masked man decapitating a woman in Mexico appeared on Facebook and sparked a sharp public outcry in May, the company...Read more »
Bessent: In the surveillance game, are U.S. allies collaborators?
The controversy over the United States' surveillance of phone calls has gotten personal for some of the world's heads of state.
The leaders of Germany, Mexico, Brazil and France yowled in protest recently when they discovered U.S. intelligence operatives may have swept up their call data. German Chancellor Angela Merkel called President Barack Obama directly and angrily demanded to know if...Read more »

Bessent: Shutdown is no excuse for failing to pay military death benefits
The shutdown outrage du jour — the delay in paying death benefits to families of fallen military personnel — is fortunately one where there's an easy fix.
Republican House Speaker John Boehner said Tuesday that before the shutdown began, Congress gave the Defense Department authority to pay the $100,000 benefit along with transportation and burial costs to the families. While it may not be...Read more »
Dobie: Be wary of Donald Trump's proposal to purchase Plum Island
So Donald Trump wants to buy the island where they research hoof and mouth disease.
On the face of it, his proposal to purchase Plum Island and build a golf course there is preposterous, with economics that just don't work. Which is why some observers — figuring The Art of the Deal man must have something up his impeccably tailored sleeve — are quietly worried, and monitoring...Read more »

Intelligent design, about which I have learned far more than I would have liked, isn't a theory at all. It's the idea that when faced with the current frontier of detailed understanding of biological systems, we should stop researching, throw up our hands and accept it's magic.
- Peter Risdon commenting here.
Yes, that's right. ID isn't science. It's like an old medieval map that says we know the way from London to Bristol but much west, into the Atlantic, of Bristol "There be Dragons". ID is a dismal attempt at codifying the limits of biological science on faux-theological grounds. I shall ignore the fact that it is merely the Sylvester Sneekley for Creationism's Hooded Claw for the moment because let's stick to the science for a bit before we get on to that. OK?
The Twentieth Century has seen many advances in physics and mathematics that are, or seem to be, about fundamental limits on human knowledge. Aspects of quantum mechanics, relativity and of course Gödel's incompleteness theorems spring to mind. Now strain these ideas through the mind of a cracker barrel philosopher with a certain religious axe to grind and then apply the resultant filtrate to biology and you get ID. Of course we all know Einstein showed everything was relative (he didn't) and that QM shows nothing can be known (it doesn't) and that Gödel proved nothing can be proved (he didn't) but let's not let the technicalities of differential geometry or quantum commutators or even diagonal lemmas get in the way of what we just know to be true already. Oh, Lordy no! And then for an encore apply these utterly misconstrued precepts to biology by a half-assed argument by analogy. Biology doesn't push the boundaries the same way math or physics does. It pushes different boundaries. It's boundaries are not so much those of spacetime or logic but those of truly deep complexity. If you think about it that is obvious and the reason these things are different disciplines is much the same way that the greatest spin-bowler of all time isn't the greatest centre-forward of all time and vice-versa or that Mozart and Maxwell despite both being geniuses were hardly interchangeable.
Anyway this is my tuppence on ID. It's the pub bore's (stands to reason, read it in The Express, must be true?) misapplication to biology of a misunderstanding of the physical and mathematical sciences where it's neither wanted nor useful nor true in any meaningful sense of that word and the harnessing of an invented Zeitgeist to drag the thoroughly discredited concept of creationism into this century without it being laughed at out loud that much. It is deeply disingenuous in the same way Old Skool patent remedies are. I have much more time – much more – for people who simply say they believe the world was created in six days, "Because the Bible tells me so" than for these pseudo-scientists who dress the rotting corpse of their faith in The Creation in a frayed lab coat for yet another go at an argument they lost on scientific grounds a century ago**.
Creationists (and as Peter points out IDers are creationists) frequently claim "Darwinism" (like no other scientist ever worked in the field! – we have classical physics not "newtonism"*) leads to all manner of social ills and almost to a form of nihilism. I have never understood this. Science is morally neutral and it is the creationists who attempt to make it something other than that – essentially they "socialize" science and want it to aim for what is "good" rather than what is true. The truth sometimes hurts – get over it!
Certainly, to me, there is a greater grandeur to the Universe than anything in Genesis though I can understand why someone brought up on six days might be upset by the truth. There has to be more otherwise we have all been wasting our smiting time*** since the Bronze Age when, obviously, all was set aright by a bunch of bearded lunatics wandering around a desert. Why is it that religions have a tendency to arise in deserts and similarly inhospitable terrain? Might I suggest it's because there is fuck all else to do other than to make shit up?
I feel sorry for the IDers. They are denying themselves the knowledge of truly exquisite beauty in favour of what my brother would call "best bollocks". The user guide to this Universe was stolen by Prometheus and the fire is not in deliberately cryptic nostrums from burning bushes (I once set fire to a bush by mistake and she almost killed me****) but in The Calculus***** and in Darwin and all the rest of those cats.
The metaphor of bringing light into darkness is over used but science does bring light into the dark and ID is deliberate obscurantism and that is not and never can be science. Science is plus ultra or it is nothing. We can end up going back to shivering in the cave or sending spacecraft to Europa. The choice is that simple.
*"newtonian" is usually given the lower case. Well, you figure that out…
**The final nail in the coffin of creationism was hammered home by Hans Bethe. He demonstrated that the stars shone by nuclear fusion. Hitherto Kelvin's theory had the stars shining by gravitational collapse. Kelvin was wrong. Bethe was right (or I really did waste a lot of time) and it shifted the time-scale dramatically. Sad story in a way. The day he got his theory down he had a date and his potential inamorata, as he was walking her home, said something about how beautiful the stars were that night. Bethe replied, "Yes, and only I know how they shine". She wasn't impressed. So Bethe didn't even get tops and fingers that night but I guess the Nobel sort of made up for it.
***Kinda like Hammer Time but with less voluminous trousers.
**** In the garden. Does that make it better?
*****See *, there are many calculi but only one is capitalised. I never claimed science was consistent in it's nomenclature.

Although absolutely nothing has happened for the Cavaliers in the 12 days since winning the NBA Draft Lottery, it has seemed like an eternity to fans. There's still another 26 days remaining until the actual draft — showing how all of the team's options can start to wear on an exhausted Twitter base.
But most notably in the past week, Cleveland Twitter has been electric with the allure and mystique of 22-year-old Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins. One of the most polarizing players in the NBA, Cousins was "potentially" on the block with the Kings being sold and changing their leadership structure.
Alas, as of last night, it now appears that Cousins will not be anywhere close to the trade block. Would this have been a fruitful exploration? Moving forward after that fantasy, what can Cavaliers fans do now? What's next on the horizon? Let's take a look through the stats and the narratives. [Read more...]

Bumped and Updated below the fold...P
Interesting article this morning...
If recent reports that Joe Paterno and Penn State worked together to cover up what they knew of Jerry Sandusky's shower activities with young boys are true, sports law experts who spoke with The Patriot-News Saturday afternoon say there is merit for the Penn State football program to receive the death penalty.
The death penalty is the harshest punishment the NCAA can mete out. To date, only one Division I football program — Southern Methodist — has been dealt that punishment. It prohibits a program from competition for at least a year and usually is imposed only after repeated rules violations.
University of Toledo sports law professor Geoffrey Rapp said that until Saturday he didn't think the crimes that resulted from the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal at Penn State fell under the purview of the NCAA.
But that changed with CNN reporting the discovery of an email chain from February 2001 where Penn State officials agreed to speak to Sandusky about "future appropriate use of the University facility" and then contact officials at The Second Mile, Sandusky's charity, and the Department of Welfare about the case. A day later, after talking to Joe Paterno, they had changed their minds.
I am not comfortable with this.
I think the NCAA is woefully out of its depth in trying to investigate and enforce with any consistency "simple" cases like pay for play, extra benefits and academic fraud. The NCAA even going down this road regardless of what CNN reported is a train wreck waiting to happen.
I don't disagree that there is some apparent damning things in this email chain, but with Joe Paterno now dead and two of the three other people involved facing perjury charges The NCAA is not going to be able to investigate this thoroughly. Yes, they can use the material from the pending trials but this is the big leagues.
The NCAA is ill equipped to get involved with this.
Also, a lot of this happened way before any of the current players at PSU arrived, so why should they be punished. Of course, many said the same thing about USC when their sanctions were handed down and we all know the NCAA screwed that ruling up...this is much bigger deal so I don't see how they can get it right.
My friends at the BBC have their well reasoned take. They make some interesting points. Hard to really know where it goes...
I am certainly not a PSU fan. I respect their program and their traditions, but I was never a Paterno guy. I thought he stayed way too long. While he was the face of the program, many thought that his staff was the reason for PSU's success over the past few years. Hard to know from my view as I don't follow PSU. Paterno's performance in front of the camera during that ESPN Outside the Lines piece that looked at PSU's many off-field legal issues a few years back made him look like a bumbling old fool. I seem to remember a comment he made about going home and beating his wife after a bad loss (I tried to look for it but didn't find it). Even if the comment was in jest that comment turned me off to Paterno.
PSU has been through a lot...maybe not enough but giving PSU the "Death Penalty" is a pointless act that solves nothing.
I do know that this is far from over and PSU will continue be in the spotlight...
Looks like the NCAA is going to take a wait and see approach but they will have some pointed questions for PSU.
Findings from Penn State's internal investigation into the case of ex-defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky are due Thursday. The NCAA says it has already been collecting information from the probe led by former FBI director Louis Freeh.
The NCAA says Penn State will have to formally respond to questions from NCAA president Mark Emmert, even after Freeh unveils his findings.
Like I said last week, the NCAA is ill equipped to handle this.
This is mission creep...another step closer to increasing their power.
Tomorrow is going to be interesting...

By Darcy G. Richardson on June 28, 2012
Michael Kicinski, who polled nearly a third of the Republican primary vote on Tuesday while losing to U.S. Rep. Richard L. Hanna in New York's 22nd congressional district, wasted little time in announcing that he will remain in the race as a third-party candidate. The 52-year-old Kicinski, an electronics engineer whose long-shot candidacy in the GOP primary […]

AUGUSTA, Mich. (AP) - Three hundred college students have scrubbed
thousands of headstones at a cemetery for veterans near Battle Creek.
It was a service project Saturday for business
freshmen at Western Michigan University, who sign up for community work
to ease the transition to college. Parker Brighton of Lake Odessa tells
the Kalamazoo Gazette it was "cool" and an "honor."
After learning about the history of Fort Custer
National Cemetery in Augusta, students spent about 90 minutes cleaning
headstones with soap, water and sponges. A.J. Albright of Big Rapids
says he thought about the names of the soldiers and their stories.
No matter how busy college life is, Albright says there's always time to give back to a community.

Oy vey. I did figure we'd lose, but I was hoping we'd make it competitive. I forgot we had Bratworst trying to call plays again this year.
If he continues to call as dumbly as he has all year (and why would that change now?) then I figure we'll probably lose to the Browns again even if Jake the Snake actually plays. And we may get blown out if Colt McCoy gets a shot at us. Yuk. On the other hand, I have zero interest in Newton. I want a polished QB who won't need our coaches to fix a bunch of things in training, because our coaches have zero ability to do that. That means we need to draft either Luck or maybe Locker. So maybe losing out and hoping the Punkthers manage to win at least one more game is actually worth it. Maybe.
Either way, tho, at least we do have a shot at scoring some points. If Jake plays, we have about a 70/30 chance of Bad Jake showing up and gifting our guys with some easy INTs. So long as they don't drop them, that's points we can use in this game. And their defense isn't nearly as good as the Steelers, so we have a real shot to put some points on the board on offense as well.
So place your picks for this coming week in the comments. Scoring recap post from last week is repeated below the jump as well as the summary version of the rules. (Review the original full write-up of the rules here if you like.) Pick your player in the comments and have fun!
Well, as soon as Mojo said we were going to win I knew we were going to lose… but I was hoping somebody would score some points. But when the only offensive player in the game to score a TD is Whit, and our defense puts a licking on Ben but never forces a single turnover, I have the easiest writeup since week 17 last year. At least we're playing a little bit better now than we were then. But not nearly enough so.
Anyway, next week the standings will be unchanged and we'll get to try again.
Since there were no changes, I didn't give the leaderboard in the comments last week, so here is a copy of the week 13 leaderboard for reference.

34. TCfromDubVee – 25 points
35. cscmember – 23 points
36. featherman – 12 points
Here is a quick recap of the rules.
- Pick one player (Make it easy on me, make him the title of your post. Both first and last name please, and please try to avoid nicknames or blatant misspellings.) who is NOT officially listed as a QB, P, or PK on the roster.
- An offensive score is worth one point per participant who did not pick your player.
- A defensive player is worth 2/1/0.5 point(s) per participant who did not pick your player based on if he 2) actually scored, 1) gained possession of the ball for the team but didn't actually score, or 0.5) allowed the Bengals to gain possession by causing a fumble (or blocking a kick) that another Bengals player recovered. Sacks or tackles behind the line of and by themselves are not worth anything unless they are a strip-sack (0.5 points if we recover) or they are also a safety (2 points). All half-points will be rounded down. A blocked FG is always 0.5 for the blocker, a blocked punt is the same unless the blocker is the only person (on either team) to touch the ball before it becomes a safety (in which case it becomes 2 points).
- You score the maximum possible points for your player but only one time. So a defensive player who forces an opponent's fumble that Cincinnati recovers and recovers another opponent's fumble at a different point in the game is worth 1x points (not 1.5x cumulative).
- Keep commentary to the bare minimum please.
- Predictions on how they will score are not required, and if you provide one they don't net you any bonus if you are right nor do they detract if you are wrong (so long as they do actually score by game rules).
- Try to be original yet still pick somebody you think has a realistic chance to score or cause a turnover.
- Only ONE (1) player entry per contestant, per week is allowed. Unless your first player was on the roster at the start of the week and is put on IR/cut/traded before the next week, your first comment is your player, so pick carefully.
- Deadline for player entries each week is THIRTY (30) minutes prior to kickoff.

The Braves offense appears to have come around. Let's hope it stays that way.
Atlanta's hitters jumped on Bronson Arroyo early and the Braves defeated the Reds for an epic 7-6 victory. Chipper Jones delivered the game-winning hit with two on in the 12th inning to even the series at one apiece.
The offensive outburst started in the first when Eric Hinske scored Chipper Jones with a two-out single. In the second with two on and one out, Jordan Schafer dropped down a bunt single to score Freddie Freeman. Martin Prado followed with an RBI single of his own to score Alex Gonzalez.
The Braves appeared to put the game out of reach in the third when Brian McCann and Freddie Freeman each hit solo home runs to run the score to 5-0, but Derek Lowe struggled mightily with his location. He loaded the bases with one out, a single and two walks, in the first inning, but induced a double play out of Jay Bruce. Lowe escaped another bases-loaded jam in the third, but Jay Bruce again grounded out without a run scoring.
Lowe, however, could not escape the fourth inning. Following two singles and a walk to load the bases again, Drew Stubbs smacked a bases-clearing double to right and Brandon Phillips followed with an RBI double of his own to close within 5-4. Joey Votto tied the game with a single to center. In the span of four pitches, Derek Lowe allowed five runs and left the game having completed only 3.1 innings.
Adding insult to injury was Reds reliever Jeremy Horst, making his major-league debut. Not only did Horst strike out two in his first inning of work in the fourth, he delivered a tie-breaking single in the fifth. That lead didn't last long, because Brian McCann belted his second home run of the game in the bottom of the inning off Horst.
Both bullpens kept the other offense at bay. The Reds were able to put two on base in the seventh, but were unable to score thanks to Jordan Schafer's inning-ending catch to rob Fred Lewis of a hit. They threatened again in the eighth when Scott Rolen singled with Joey Votto on base, but was thrown out at second to end the inning.
Scott Linebrink pitched two scoreless innings thanks to some defense in the 12th. Edgar Renteria singled to start the inning and with one out, Linebrink walked Chris Heisey, but induced a double play out of Drew Stubbs to end the inning.
The Braves ended the game when Schafer and Prado both walked before Chipper Jones smacked the walkoff hit.
Reds outfielder Jonny Gomes entered the game hitting .162, but delivered four hits, including a double.
The Braves try to win the series Sunday; Jurrjens against Cueto.

Starting today, teens visiting clairespromstyle.com will first be greeted with a 10-question quiz to discover their personal style profile, the results of which can be shared on Twitter, Facebook and over e-mail.
They can then watch videos of Port offering tips and styling tricks related to their newly discovered fashion personas.
"These girls want to interact with one another and relate to a lifestyle like their own," said Richard Christiansen, founder and creative director of Chandelier Creative, which helped develop the initiative. "We took Claire's Web site to the next level and created a spontaneous and interactive environment that these girls cannot only log onto, but also relate to and discuss together in school the next day."
Some of Port's biggest tips include wearing comfortable shoes and choosing an updo. "There is a lot of dancing, and it's no fun to be fussing with your hair all night," she told WWD.
If she were given a prom-night do-over, the reality star said she would have gone "way more out of the box" than the gold beaded mini dress and simple jewelry she wore, maybe choosing a funkier cocktail dress.
Although she doesn't exactly fit the retailer's target demographic, we'd listen to her advice over that of some of her co-stars (read: Heidi and Spencer) any day -- even after her gig hosting a Web-based reality show about Ken dolls.

The end to end action in this game was for the most part non-stop. Except for a brief time late in the second period, the Falcons matched the Bruins straight up.
The Falcons were the first to get on the board when Alexandre Giroux notched a power play goal at the 10:52 mark of the opening stanza. The puck movement by the Falcons has been strong on the power play for most of the season (the Birds are 6th in the AHL), on this power play, they "kicked it up a notch". Precision passing, deep penetration in the Bruins zone and finally Giroux finishing a feed from Falcons leading scorer, Martin St. Pierre. David Savard picked up the secondary assist for starting the play.
A scoreless second period followed. The teams exchanged minor penalties in the period with Martin St. Pierre going off for holding at 1:43, while Kevan Miller took two for hooking at 7:03.
Shots on goal in the second period were 10-9 in favor of the Falcons. The two period totals were 28-25 for the Falcons in a game in which both Manny Legace and Anton Khudobin were matching each other save for save.
The defensive battle continued into the third period. The Falcons took three minor penalties in the period. Tomas Kubalik was sent off for tripping at 2:21. Adam Mair was whistled for a cross check at 8:07. Before the final penalty though, the Falcons collapsed in their defensive zone and with just 2:39 remaining in the final period, Kyle MacKinnon converted for his third goal of the season, giving the Bruins a 2-1 lead.
Martin St. Pierre took a boarding penalty with just over two minutes left on the clock, in essence taking away the possibility of pulling Legace for the extra skater. With under a minute left, Legace was pulled, but to no avail as the Bruins held the Falcons at bay with Khudobin coming up big one more time to thwart the Falcons comeback effort.
1. Kyle MacKinnon
2. Anton Khudobin
3. Manny Legace
The Falcons will be back on the road Saturday night when they travel to Albany to take on the Devils. The Devils took it on the chin Friday night, losing to the Worcester Sharks by a score of 5-1.

The key to training each of your muscles is to understand their function and how they work. Your chest is no different. Here, we'll go over your pectoral muscles, how to train them, and we'll even dispel a few myths along the way.
Chest Anatomy:
The pectorals are your chest muscles. They begin at your sternum and connect to a tendon that attaches to the humeris bone in your upper arm. Each time your chest muscles contract, they essentially pull your upper arm bone forward and in front of you.
To get a feel for the full range of motion of your chest muscles, straighten your arms out to each side of you. Move your arms forward in front of you until your forearms cross. This represents the full and complete range of motion for your chest muscles.
We'll just skip the rest of the anatomy lesson and get to what you really need to know. For your training, your pecs are essentially trained as a whole using exercises like the bench press, or you can use exercises that focus on your upper chest such as the incline bench press.
Aside from the upper chest exercises, there isn't really as much specialization for the chest as one might think. Let's take a look at the different chest specialization areas you might have heard of.
- General Pecs: You will train your chest muscle group as a whole using the flat level bench. This includes the flat bench press, flat bench flyes, dumbbell bench press, etc. Dips will also train your pecs with somewhat less emphasis on the upper chest.
- Upper Chest: You train the upper portion of your chest using an incline bench. Exercises such as the incline bench press, incline flyes, and incline dumbbell bench press will all emphasize the upper chest.
- Lower Chest: The lower chest muscle is a myth. It's simply not there. The decline bench press will work your chest from a different angle, yes. But there is no such thing as a lower chest muscle that is distinct or separate from other chest muscles.
- Inner/ Outer Chest Muscles: Again, there's no such thing as focusing on your inner or outer chest muscles. Many people believe that flat bench flyes will work your outer chest while the peck deck flyes work your inner chest. This is more of an illusion that comes from the fact that each exercise places greater stress on your chest at different points in the range of motion.
The whole idea of working the inner/outer chest is flawed because it assumes that you can flex one end of a strand of muscle and not the other end. When you muscles contract, the whole entire muscle contracts, not just one end or the other. You cannot contract the bottom of your bicep without the entire bicep muscle getting shorter. It's just not possible.
There are generally two main types of movements that work your chest muscles:
Pressing Movements: These include the bench press, incline bench press, and all of their variations and different angles. Dips are also included in the category. Pressing movements tend to directly involve the pecs, triceps, and deltoids in the movement. Secondary stabilizer muscles include your lats, posterior delts, and other back muscles.
Leverage Movements: This means chest flyes. Flyes can be done using dumbbells on a flat bench, using a peck deck machine, or using the crossover cables. Flyes are an isolation exercise. Do your pressing movements first in your workout, and add in flyes only when you've progressed to the point where you're ready for more.
A training program that uses a flat bench pressing movement, an incline movement, and some dips will fulfill your chest training needs for quite a while. Stick to these basic movements before you get too carried away doing cable crossovers or other flye movements.
And of course, I know I probably don't need to keep saying this to you, but don't get too carried away with working only your chest and your arms. If you want to be a bodybuilder, train your whole body. Don't be a boobie-builder.
Focusing only on your chest and arms is bad for your body's balance and posture. Paying attention to building a strong back will balance you out and even give you greater stabilizing muscles that will increase your bench press and strengthen your pecs even more.

The league was founded in 1903, and with Major League Baseball almost completely east of the Mississippi River before the 1950s, the PCL was the top league for West Coast baseball. The original teams were in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Portland, Seattle and Oakland. San Diego was also a stalwart franchise for the first half of the 20th century. From 1952-57, the PCL was the only minor league ever to be given the classification of "open" - an experiment to have a tier above Class AAA. The goal was to create a third major league, but MLB expansion ended that quest. Five of the original cities now have MLB franchises. It's been a Class AAA league ever since.
Twice, the PCL absorbed some of the remnants of a league called the American Association and expanded. The first happened in 1963, when that league was depleted by new MLB franchises in the Midwest, specifically in Kansas City, Milwaukee and Minneapolis.
Another American Association formed in 1969 when MLB expanded again, and five teams from that league were absorbed into the PCL in 1997, and they are part of the American Conference of the PCL, which consists of some teams that are thousands of miles from the Pacific Coast.

"Jurassic Bark" is the seventh episode of season four of the television series Futurama, airing November 17, 2002. It was nominated for an Emmy Award, but lost to The Simpsons episode "Three Gays of the Condo".
According to the DVD commentary, the last part of the episode where Seymour is waiting outside on the sidewalk was originally set to "Gayane's Adagio" from Aram Khachaturian's Gayane ballet suite, famously used in the sequence introducing the Discovery spacecraft in 2001: A Space Odyssey, but was replaced with the song "I Will Wait for You" from The Umbrellas of Cherbourg as sung by Connie Francis, which writer Eric Kaplan's grandparents sang and played on the piano while he was a child. The song "Everybody's Talking" by Harry Nilsson also featured in this episode.
According to the DVD commentary, the original idea for the episode was to have Fry's mother fossilized instead of Seymour, but this idea was scrapped after it was thought to be too upsetting to the audience.
In its initial airing, the episode received a Nielsen rating of 4.2/5, placing it 93rd among primetime shows for the week of November 11–17, 2002.[3] The episode was nominated for the 2004 Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming Less than One Hour) but lost to The Simpsons episode "Three Gays of the Condo".[1] In 2006, IGN ranked this episode #8 in their list of the top 25 Futurama episodes, with critic Dan Iverson remarking that the climax was "one of the saddest endings to a television program that I have ever seen".

The Agony of Kidney Stones (cont.)
"It had been beat up by the stone," he explains. "It had been festered."
Stokes' doctor left a stent in his ureter to make sure it would heal properly, but for Stokes, the pain of having the stent was just as bad as having the stone, and he wondered if the problem had really been solved.
"For two weeks, I had to look forward to going back to the doctor's office and have something go up through the penis and through the bladder to pull the stent out," he says.
After two weeks of anticipation, the day finally arrived. The doctor used a device that resembled a plunger for anesthetic. The device was put through the canal, through the urethra, then through the bladder.
The nurse held his feet to keep him calm while the doctor inserted a small, firm tube into the penis to the urethra to give an opening for the device used to pull the stent out.
Stokes describes the experience as uncomfortable, but not painful. After about two minutes, his doctor was able to pull the stent out.
"I anticipated more pain and discomfort than there really was," Stokes says. "Coming out was nothing. It didn't hurt at all."
After being sent home, he was told to take it easy for a couple days. Within a 24-hour period, all the problems he had been experiencing for the last year completely went away.
When the stone was analyzed to help determine the cause, his doctor found it was a soft stone, made up mostly of calcium, and Stokes found out later that his body naturally produces a high amount of calcium. This put him at risk for developing kidney stones.
Another factor with his stones was that he wasn't drinking enough water. Today Stokes makes a point to drink lemon water every morning because the lemon will have an effect on any stones that have begun to develop during the night.
"It's never how much water you drink, but it's how and when you urinate," he says. "At night when you go to bed, you have an eight-hour period, so there's an opportunity for the calcification to occur at night."
Although his problems went on for over a year, Stokes has been fine since his last procedure.
"It was just like a miracle," he says. "When they lifted that thing out of there, it was life-changing."
*Names have been changed.

4 Chic Hairstyles for Curly Hair
A quartet of Real Simple readers get the ideal style for their springy, spiraling, occasionally maddening curls. By Didi Gluck
What do you think about this slideshow? Share your own solutions and ideas.
Before: Selene Rosenberg, 25
Says Selene, an advertising copywriter, "My hair went curly when I turned 13. My mom's hair is straight, so she couldn't really
teach me how to style it. Finally, in my junior year of college, I met a girl with long, beautiful curls who showed me her
regimen. I started using more conditioning styling products, not touching my hair while it dried—and only using my fingers
to detangle it in the shower. Although I have blown it out occasionally, it takes way too long to do daily; that's just not
my lifestyle."
Her goal: a low-maintenance style with a nice shape and defined curls.

Business Invitation:
Dear Chautauqua County Business Owner/Manager;
The Month of the Young Child is an annual celebration each April. It is sponsored, primarily by NAEYC (the National Association for the Education of Young Children) as well as the local communities in which programs exist for the quality care and early education of young children. The purpose of the MOYC is to focus public attention on the needs of young children and their families, and to support the early Childhood programs, services, and communities that work to meet those needs.
We propose to highlight Chautauqua as a county that does just that—support its youngest citizens in a way that is exemplary to the rest of the county. We would like to invite you to join your fellow businesses in celebrating Chautauqua County's youngest citizens through a decorating contest to be held in April. Businesses may choose to decorate a window, bulletin board, or other designated area. The County logo is being provided to you as an insert in this newsletter. You may reproduce it in any size, paint it on your windows, add your own personal message— Be Creative!!!
This year, CCAEYC has partnered with the Chautauqua Star newspaper to bring a closer focus on the Month of the Young Child and the local businesses that support this endeavor. Businesses may upload a photo of their MOYC display to the Chautauqua Star website, or a photo will be taken by the committee and uploaded for you- whichever you prefer. This provides your business with valuable free publicity—as well as showing Chautauqua County that you are a business that cares about the youngest members of our society!!
Registered businesses will receive a certificate of participation, as well as being highlighted in a press release at the end of April. (Great free publicity) Participants will be entered into a random drawing for one of two $25.00 Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce gift certificates that may be used at many Chautauqua County locations. We are proud of our area children, and the many programs and services that our County has to offer them. We are grateful for your support in this celebration and what it means to Chautauqua County.
Thank You,

Based on these quotes it appears he will be traded at some point this season:
Padres CEO Jeff Moorad stated the obvious yesterday regarding first baseman Adrian Gonzalez. Tim Sullivan of the San Diego Union-Tribune has the quote:
"While I'd be thrilled to have him part of the organization for the long term, the early signals indicate his cost will be greater than our ability to pay."
Gonzalez's agent John Boggs agreed, and explained that he expects a trade:
"The feeling we're getting is more than likely (the Padres) are going to have to trade Adrian because (they) can't afford him."
These quotes are far from groundbreaking, so consider this your official Gonzalez Trade Prediction post. Tell us the acquiring team and players given up. Keep in mind that at $10.25MM over the next two years, any team willing to surrender the right players could acquire Gonzalez. Given their first base incumbents, though, the Cardinals, Brewers, Phillies, Reds, Yankees, and Twins appear unlikely.
With the payroll dropping significantly after this season, and a hole opening up at 1st base, would you give up a Wade Davis and another top 10 prospect for Gonzo? He is inrexpensive, can play 1st great, and the Rays could move Pena to DH. I dont see this happening, but it would be frigging awesome.

Islamists vs. Secularists: The Arab Spring, Phase 2
Ahmed Benchemsi
Why did the young, secular activists who sparked the Arab Spring back off after regime change happened? What are the underlying factors of the Islamist movements' ensuing electoral forays? What does this tell about Arab societies? Can secularism ever take root and prosper as a significant trend in the Arab World?
Ahmed Benchemsi is a Moroccan, US-based journalist, and currently a visiting scholar at Stanford University. Mr. Benchemsi is the Founder and Editor in Chief of Free Arabs (www.freearabs.com). Before joining Stanford, he founded, published, and edited TelQuel and Nishan, Morocco's two best-selling magazines.

Number of ratings 15 / Average Grade: A Submit a correction
She has very nice teaching in class. If you do everything in the right way, an easy A will be given.
Professor Si is very helpful and really drills the basic concepts at the beginning so you don't get confused later. It will feel really easy for a while, but it picks up quick. Just keep up and do the homework, and you should be able to get an A. If you're confused, go to office hours. She is very approachable.
Her class is great. It's a project based class and your can easily get a very good grading.
It was a project based class: there were really only 2 major projects throughout the semester and the consequent presentations and reports constituted the majority of the grade. She could've been clearer about the specifics of the assignment, but she was very positive about everything and made the class interesting.
You wont understand anything in her class. Please take any other course. She is easy going and you can good grades because of projects. But at the end you wont understand anything. Please do not take her class.
This class is helpful mainly for people in signal processing. Not a great professor. Classes are not very informative. Bad prof if you want to learn the subject well. No exams, only projects. Easy to get an A.
She made the subject seem easy and algebraic! Gives lots of credit! takes time for every student to understand in class so ask questions often in class! You can easily make mistakes on her exams though. Take the time to stop by her office hours
She is extremely enthusiastic in class and tries to explain stuff clearly but sometimes she skips steps that are crucial to understanding the material. Tests are way different than HW.HW is usally one lecture ahead of what she's teaching. No curve no matter what the average.
She cares very much for the class progress. She spends the extra time and effort when majority of the students is struggling. The material is tough. She gives you lots of examples, but you must be able to follow up and repeat on your own. Staying up with the class is a must. One big plus is she may give the make up test if the class struggles.
If you want to learn something take another proffesor, if you want to waste your time then take it with jennie. The true is that the class is a joke, and the sad part is that almost everyone gets a perfect grade, in a way it sucks because you do your work, but everyone get the same grade, the proble is the grader. He or she gives perfect grades to
No Comments
If you can, take Jennie Si for ECE 100, BUT DON'T BUY THE BOOK (you dont use it, waste of money) Lets see: One member of our group got "sick" and left with our folder, our robot didn't finish the course, our presentation sucked, but we rocked the modelling so she gave us an A. Good times
dont take any other teacher for ece 100 the class is a joke and see doesnt care we almost got a kid an A when he didnt even show up everythings in group and as long as your names on the paper your golden the only real work is the robot and she lets u slide on that too
An average teacher. The class really isn't all that useful. Doesn't cover much material; we spend a lot of time working on projects. The instructions are often vague. Helpful with working out problems, though.

West Carroll School District leaders and parents will get the chance to speak out on Thursday night, April 4, 2013.
The district is hosting a town hall meeting and has invited State Senator Tim Bivins and Rep. Jim Sacia.
The town hall meeting stems from last month's decision to eliminate 12 teaching positions from the district.
The decision was made in an effort to cut millions of dollars from next year's budget.
Senator Bivins yesterday says there is a lot of blame on the state for negligent spending. He says parents in the district have a right to be upset.
"When you start losing jobs and programs are effected, people get emotional and upset about that, and rightly so. They are not the lone ranger and they're not going through this by themselves because a lot of school districts are going through the exact same thing where we have to lay off teachers and cut programs."
The town hall meeting starts at 5:30 p.m. and will be held at the middle school.

Nathan Cleverly will defend his WBO light heavyweight title against mandatory challenger Robin Krasniqi, while heavyweight Dereck Chisora returns to the ring for a tune-up fight today at Wembley Arena in London.
BLH will be picking up our live coverage of the show at 6:30 EDT, following live coverage of the Fury-Cunningham show starting at 4. The fight airs on BoxNation in the UK, and EPIX and streaming live at EPIXHD.com in the States.
Cleverly (25-0, 12 KO) is expected to win handily, but Krasniqi (39-2, 15 KO) isn't a bad fighter or anything like that, simply not a legitimate contender in the eyes of anyone except the WBO. The 26-year-old German hasn't lost since 2006, and started his career 1-2, so given that he's on a 38-fight win streak, he's done something right. Even against mediocre opponents, you have to be a bit better than mediocre, at the very least, to win that consistently.
Chisora (15-4, 9 KO) is facing 38-year-old Argentinean Hector Alfredo Avila (20-12-1, 13 KO) in what is expected to be a walkover type of fight. It is also rumored that this will be Chisora's final fight under Frank Warren's watch, with talk that he'll sign with Matchroom on Tuesday.
