FORT WAYNE – In leading the Komets to a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarterfinals against the defending champion Reading Royals, goaltender Ben Meisner has been impressive.
He stopped 33 of 34 shots in the 3-1 victory at Memorial Coliseum on Friday night. For the series, he has stopped 95.9 percent of the shots he's faced and has a goals-against average of 1.25.
Benny was really big for us in that first period when we, frankly, didn't have our game going, said Fort Wayne coach Gary Graham, whose team was outshot 16-8 in the first period.
I thought we got better as the game went on, but so did Benny. He continues to impress me. He's been very poised in net. But it's team success right now.
No slump talk
Lincoln Kaleigh Schrock hadn't scored in the series until the first period, but he didn't want to talk much about breaking the slump.
It felt good, but it felt better to get the win, he said. Not enough people are talking about Sy Nutkevitch and Jace Coyle, Dean Ouellet and Christian Ouellet, and what they are all doing. Those guys have been there for us. Sy has been in and out of the lineup, but he's always played well and always worked hard, no matter if he's the 12th or the 13th guy.
Royals manuevers
Reading made some changes to its lineup, taking out Josh Brittain, Brandon Blandina, T.J. Syner and Mike Banwell in favor of Nick Bruneteau, Jesse Todd, Aaron Gens and Greg Wolfe.
Brittain, a former Fort Wayne player, had two goals in the first two games. Blandina had one. Gens cost Fort Wayne's Chris Auger almost all of last season with a knee-to-knee hit, while Gens was with Evansville.
I understood and kind of knew what (Reading coach Larry Courville) wanted to do with the matchups, now that he got a feeling what I wanted to do, Graham said. He put in some bigger size to go up against our one line and he put in some more youth, some more jam. On the defensive corps, obviously Banwell went out (Thursday with an injury), which is tough for them. But Bruneteau and Gens are good young defensemen, and I thought they played well. They have eight young defensemen who can play.
I don't think there was much of a dropoff with their team tonight and to be honest with you, whenever you put some new young talent in the lineup that's hungry to play, I think that gives your team a spark and you saw that in the first period. But I thought our response was better in the second and the third period.

ASIS International (ASIS) and Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to foster the growth of the security and information technology systems industries, promote public safety, and protect critical infrastructure globally. Privacy, workforce development, and federal resources will be among the top issues to be addressed.
The largest association for security management professionals, ASIS represents more than 38,000 security practitioners worldwide. BICSI is a professional association that supports the information technology systems (ITS) industry, serving more than 23,000 ITS professionals, including designers, installers and technicians.
More details from the ASIS press release are as follows:
The primary focus of this agreement is collaboration and information sharing in the areas of research, education, standards and advocacy. Among the key issues that may be addressed by the two associations are: privacy concerns over the use of security and information technology systems technologies; the development of an educated security and information technology systems workforce; voluntary consensus standards; and the availability of federal and state financial resources for the protection of critical infrastructures during a time of fiscal austerity.
"The collective knowledge and expertise within our membership bodies is quite substantial. By focusing on common goals and leveraging our core assets, ASIS and BICSI have a tremendous opportunity to impact and shape the future of homeland security by influencing and driving practice, policy and strategy across the private and public sectors," says Geoffrey T. Craighead, CPP, president, ASIS. "Together, we possess the information, skills and abilities to exponentially increase the effectiveness and efficiency of security and information systems technology systems for the global benefit of public safety and business resiliency."
"There is incredible synergy between these two great associations. I've been a member of both for many years, and have watched as the convergence of ITS and physical security enabled a relationship like this to make sense for the stakeholders of both associations. I would encourage all BICSI members involved in any aspect of physical security to take advantage of the benefits of the ASIS relationship," said BICSI President Jerry L. Bowman, RCDD, RTPM, NTS, CISSP, CPP, CDCDP.
News of developing initiatives resulting from the MOU will be announced on the organizations' websites—www.asisonline.org and www.bicsi.org.

Very Stylish but not worth the price!
By Violettuxedo
from Edmonton
Dyson's claim to fame are vacuum cleaners but now the company has branched out to several other industrial areas and fans being one of them, well since I own three of their vacuums and love them, I thought that I could not go wrong with their fan(s).Big mistake, as I should have returned it and now it has gone past the time to return. Here is why:The fan just does not blow or circulate enough air! And for that price, I want an aircraft wind turbine created in my condo!I like the design and that is about it, or shall I say, the fan does disperse a moderate amount of air but do not expect this fan to heavily circulate the air in your home and on the highest setting, it is noisy.So, I am ranking it as average.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

good product
By Mum2boys2

It is very basic. Bought it because it is quiet, clean, simple, elegant. It is all those things but it is pricey, has no remote. No colour options here on TSC.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

It quit working one week later
By Cora
from Saskatoon (SK)
We used it every night for less than one week, and then it just died. Couldn't get it to power up again, so we sent it back. I'm not going to bother with reordering another one- it doesn't seem worth it for the price.

A charity fashion bash hosted by Henry Holland
The H! By Henry Holland team were invited to the first charity fashion auction 'Debut' hosted by the man himself Henry Holland.
The auction was In aid of Cancer Research. Henry has been working with the charity for 18months and did a fabulous job of hosting the evening with his pals Miquita Oliver and Nick Grimshaw.
The auction featured a host of Iconic photographs and fashion artworks along with donated goodies from Kate Moss. Designer dresses from Peter Pilot, Christopher Kane, Tracey Boyd and House of Holland were also up for grabs.
James Corden was the guest auctioneer and did a brilliant job of encouraging everyone to dig deep, one generous lady bid £500 for a snog with him!
Pixie Geldof look gorgeous wearing one of Henry's exclusive Harris Tweed dresses from his AW11 House of Holland range as seen here with Karen Peacock, Design Director of Debenhams, sporting Henry's bandanna jumpsuit from his SS11 House of Holland collection.
Champagne and delicious pink mojitos flowed as the evening's entertainment was provided by a set from the hot new indie band "wolfgang" and DJ Sunday girl. The evening ended with a good old fashioned boogie with music courtesy of Henry and pixie on the decks.
Well done Henry for hosting such a successful event and another big well done for running the London Marathon.

BURRILLVILLE ŌĆö The script from Monday nightŌĆÖs Division I playoff game between the Burrillville/Ponaganset co-op team and North Smithfield read the same as the one from the previous two games of their best-of-three series.
For the third straight game, the Broncos kept the majority of the action in the NorthmenŌĆÖs end of the rink and outshot them by a better than 3-to-1 ratio, and for the third straight game, N.S. goaltender Britney Evangelista frustrated the Broncos with another superb performance.
But the Broncos found a way to light the lamp and erase the disappointment from Saturday nightŌĆÖs shootout defeat to the Northmen, and more importantly, they will be playing for the Division I championship this weekend.
Senior captain Kelsey Koprusak and freshman Maggie Reid each produced a pair of goals to overcome a 41-save effort by Evangelista and lift the Broncos to a 4-0 victory over their neighboring rivals at Levy Arena.
The Broncos will now turn their attention to dueling the East Bay (Barrington, Mount Hope, Portsmouth) co-op team, which claimed Game 3 of its best-of-three semifinal-round series with the Cranston co-op squad by a 5-3 score last night.
Game 1 of their best-of-three title series will take place on Saturday at a time to be announced at Providence CollegeŌĆÖs Schneider Arena, while the second game is on the docket for Sunday at 3 p.m.. A third and deciding game will be held on Tuesday at a time to be announced.
It will be the BroncosŌĆÖ first trip to a championship since the inaugural 2002-03 campaign of girlsŌĆÖ hockey, when they dropped a 4-1 decision to Mount St. Charles in a winner-take-all showdown.
ŌĆ£Our girls came to play today,ŌĆØ said Burrillville coach Marc Brissette. ŌĆ£We lost a tough game on Saturday, and I just told the girls, ŌĆśWe know that weŌĆÖre a strong team, and if we have patience with the puck and get it in deep and forecheck, then good things will happen,ŌĆÖ and that certainly paid off.ŌĆØ
The defeat, meanwhile, erases a commendable season by the Northmen, who despite boasting one of the smallest rosters in the league (14 players), caught fire at the end of the season to earn a playoff berth.
ŌĆ£I couldnŌĆÖt be more proud of my kids,ŌĆØ admitted N.S. coach Bill Nangle. ŌĆ£We knew this [series] was David vs. Goliath and Burrillville was the team to beat, and they werenŌĆÖt to be denied this year, so my hat goes off to them. TheyŌĆÖre an awesome team and I wish them a lot of luck in the finals.ŌĆØ
Evangelista, who raised eyebrows throughout the state on Saturday night with her 88-save performance in the NorthmenŌĆÖs 2-1 victory, wrapped up the night with another high number of stops as the Broncos ruled the shots department by a 45-10 margin.
And she was at her best again in the early going, denying her opposition time and time again until the hosts made good on their 18th shot of the game.
With 20 seconds left in the first period, Reid scored the only goal the Broncos needed by taking a centering pass from Koprusak and blasting a shot that was just out of the reach of the webbing of EvangelistaŌĆÖs glove.
Koprusak then doubled the BroncosŌĆÖ lead with 2:48 left in the second period when she one-timed the rebound of a shot by Tiara Bianco past Evangelista, who kicked out BiancoŌĆÖs shot, but right to a wide-open Koprusak in front of the net.
The wheels eventually came off the NorthmenŌĆÖs wagon in the third period, as Koprusak made it a 3-0 game by tipping home a pass from Jackie Keable, and 5┬Į minutes later, Reid scored off a pass from Trista Cardone.
Koprusak also had an assist on that goal, and in BrissetteŌĆÖs eyes, turned in an all-around exceptional performance.
ŌĆ£We have a very young team and sheŌĆÖs our only senior,ŌĆØ said Brissette. ŌĆ£She and I had a little talk today about the game and I said, ŌĆÖYouŌĆÖre going to lead us to victory,ŌĆÖ and she did. From the first drop of the puck, she played a great game and she took the leadership role and ran with that with the girls.ŌĆØ
Broncos goalie Brittney Bebeau didnŌĆÖt need to make any flashy saves to post the shutout in net, but Evangelista, as she did throughout the series, made her share to keep her team in the game.
EvangelistaŌĆÖs best stop of the night came 24 seconds before KoprusakŌĆÖs first goal and it came on a partial breakaway by Teigan Palazini. She zipped past a Northmen defenseman and skated in alone of Evangelista, only to be denied by a stick save from the sophomore goalie.
ŌĆ£SheŌĆÖs unbelievable,ŌĆØ said Nangle. ŌĆ£The kid is a gamer, and when the lights come on and she sees the fans in the stands, she just turns on the juice and she plays like a champion. ItŌĆÖs an awful lot of fun to have a kid like that on your team.ŌĆØ

This year brings another series of spectacular firsts for Cyndi, as well as a celebration of her three decades in the music industry. To her lengthy list of accomplishments, she can now add Broadway composer, Tony Award winner, star of her own TV show, and author.
This summer, Cyndi embarked on the She's So Unusual Tour to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of her iconic debut album of the same name which spawned four Top-5 hits on the Billboard 100 (Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Time After Time, She Bop and All Through the Night).
She will play the album in its entirety as part of the show each night to honor and thank her legion of fans that have stood by her since the beginning.
Cyndi, who won great acclaim with her 2006 stage debut as Jenny in The Threepenny Opera, has written the music and lyrics for the much-anticipated Broadway adaptation of the British film Kinky Boots. The show won 6 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Leading Man and Best Score. Cyndi became the first solo woman ever to win the Tony for Best Score.
The new musical, which opened on The Great White Way in April brings together a powerhouse team: Cyndi, legendary producers Daryl Roth and Hal Luftig, four-time Tony® Award-winner Harvey Fierstein (who wrote the book) and venerable director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell.
"Kinky Boots is the kind of joyous, inspirational musical that we love and are excited to share with audiences," say Roth and Luftig. Inspired by a true story, it's the tale of one Charlie Price, who is forced to step in and save his family's shoe factory in Northern England following the sudden death of his father. Help arrives from the unlikeliest angel—a charismatic drag performer named Lola. Together, this improbable duo revitalize the ailing business and help one another grow into the men their fathers dreamed they would become. In the process—and buoyed by Cyndi's unforgettable score of instant classics, from lively comic tunes to bring-down-the-house stunners—they transform an entire community through the power of acceptance. It's a message that could not be more timely.
Looking to the near future, Cyndi will once again turn back to her first love - music. For now, she's mum on the details of her next album and tour, but one thing is for sure: it's yet another invigorating challenge for this ever-changing artist—a woman who is never afraid to push herself creatively, and take her many fans along for the ride.

|Homosexuality as Handicap
|By Howard Kainz
|Monday, 18 March 2013
Editor's Note: Robert Royal, who normally appears every other Monday, is still in Rome and will provide a final report on Tuesday's papal installation and up-to-date analysis about Pope Francis on Wednesday. – Brad Miner
Homosexuality can best be described as a Janus-faced condition – a murky vice rearing its ugly head – or an anomalous attraction that can be dealt with rationally and honorably.
Those of us who have been subjected as children or adolescents to unwanted physical approaches by homosexuals may tend to view homosexuals as perverts, purely and simply. Before the massive media-driven changes in attitudes during the last few decades, even Freud, in A General Introduction to Psychoanalysis, categorized homosexuality as a perversion:
Among Catholics, one sometimes hears the claim that the upsurge of the numbers of gay priests is due somehow to the deficiencies of the Second Vatican Council and/or the laxity of morals since the 1960s. They might be shocked to read Chapter 124 of St. Catherine of Siena's fourteenth-century Dialogue with God the Father. This is a chapter devoted to sodomy among clerics, a vice which, says the Father, even the devils find distasteful:
But we in the twentieth century, hearing of numerous cases of individuals with unwanted same-sex attractions, have come to the conclusion that SSA, like any other form of concupiscence, can be a source of noble struggle rather than ignoble vice.
In a previous column, I discussed some of the widely varying hypotheses about the causes of homosexuality. For some reason, the opinion is widespread that homosexuality is a biological condition, although there is no reliable scientific evidence for this supposition. The fact that most psychiatrists do not engage in "reparative therapy" is due in part to the fact that the cure of a pathology depends on a knowledge of causes. And no clear etiology has been discovered in this case. Psychiatrists also shy away from the problem partly because many (since the official APA reversal in 1973) do not consider homosexuality a "pathology."
For some cases, however, there exists an obvious cure. I am referring to bisexuals – the type of individual who, often after years of marriage and children, leaves the family, deciding that he or she is really meant for same-sex liaisons. The cure is simply to exert on oneself some restraint, realizing that one cannot always "have it all."
Aside from bisexuality, homosexuality as an unwanted condition is a multi-faceted handicap – comparable to physical disabilities, in spite of the attempts of gay propagandists to portray it as "normal" (or even correlated with heightened talents or intellectual gifts). The physical handicaps – especially the greater danger of contracting STDs – are just the most obvious dangers. Current social science research – under-reported in the media – brings out the severe handicaps in families, where two people of the same sex try to ape normal mother-father patterns, after resorting to adoption or various medical circumventions to have the children they instinctively desire.
I would suggest that there are two other handicaps, rarely discussed – one metaphysical, and the other existential.
The first has to do with the metaphysics of love. The ancient Greek philosophers argued about whether attraction was more among "opposites," or "similars." Arguments could be, and were, adduced for both. But the question was wrongly formulated as an "either-or." The answer has to do with "compatibility" – which involves a unity-in-difference, a similarity-in-otherness.
In the milieu of philosophical anthropology, there is no otherness comparable in degree to the otherness of the opposite sex, and "romantic" love can be explained as finding oneself in someone completely other. Gay liaisons are pale imitations of normal sex, finding at best some degree of otherness in one's similars.
Existentially, attractions contra naturam generate a psychic disharmony that can be more distressing than other punishments. As Cicero puts it:
To be frequently or even occasionally tempted to a type of sexuality that cannot be fruitful is both painful and burdensome.
As with any handicap, however, it is important that those of us not saddled with it respond appropriately, without discrimination. There should be no discrimination, for example, in areas of employment, as long as there is no question of employees given over to seduction or unwelcome flouting of sexual lifestyles. A basic respect for co-workers has to be required.
But common sense should prevail. Alcoholics are rightfully dissuaded from bartending jobs, and the visually impaired from truck driving. Those with hearing loss, lameness, learning disabilities, color-blindness, etc., are directed to occupations that don't conflict with their handicaps.
Just as we would not place a heterosexual man in charge of a troop of Girl Scouts, going on camping trips, overseeing sleeping arrangements, etc., we would not reasonably appoint a known homosexual as a leader for Boy Scouts. And, in general, homosexuals should conscientiously remove themselves from positions where they may experience inappropriate sexual attraction to minors – for example, as teachers or as priests dealing with young people.
At least that should be the case where people truly seek to avoid temptation. We've lost almost all sense of that kind of prudence in modern America.

From the looks of Chattanooga Mayor Andy Berke's proposed 2014 budget, Chattanoogans should be getting more bang for their bucks in the coming year.
Without raising property taxes, the city will add 40 new police officers to bring the police force to a record high of 486 and give a citywide pay raise of 1.5 percent to city workers.
With some creative thinking — and budgeting — the city's $212 million operating budget also will fund a full-time federal prosecutor to put away bad guys.
There's also a plan to buy the 35-acre vacant Harriet Tubman housing development from the Chattanooga Housing Authority property and turn it into an industrial park to bring more jobs to East Chattanooga — an area long impoverished.
Mayor Berke found $7 million to apply to his priorities, including beefing up the police force to provide better public safety, a pledge he made in his campaign.
To free that money, Berke's budget cuts funding to several local agencies, including $75,000 to the Chattanooga Homeless Coalition, which had been under a microscope in recent months after questions arose over claims of mishandled funds.
River City Co., too, lost funding — $67,500, by not seeking city funds this year. But the biggest windfall came from not allocating $3.8 million to the city's contingency fund. Still, the budget indicates the city has a good rainy-day fund, proportionally more than the other big cities in Tennessee.
The budget also is "investing heavily in youth and family development programs" by implementing a job training program to develop paid internships and mentorships for young people and by creating a Youth and Family Development Department. That department will turn recreation centers into "true" youth and family development centers focused on character development, education, literacy and leadership skills.
The city also will pilot a project to encourage private industry to turn vacant unproductive city lots into affordable housing by leveraging access to federal dollars.
Meanwhile, the mayor's office has cut 14 percent from its own budget.
Berke calls it "budgeting for outcomes" — analyzing city trends and needs rather than just using last year's budget and adding 2 or 3 percent to it.
We call it smart, creative and a welcome change.

I needed another game today, and luckily my creative juices were flowing because I couldn't find anything online (I absolutely scour the internet to beg, borrow, and steal ideas!). I really like to keep my games original so that kids don't get bored.
- Divide students into desired number of teams (I did four today).
- Provide each team with a personal white board and a marker.
- Each team must send one representative to answer a question.
- If a representative gets the question right, they earn their team one point.
- If a representative gets the question wrong, they have to sit on the "Lost Island."
- The team with the most surviving members at the end of the game wins!
I got a classroom full of "thumbs up" for this game, and I thought my presentation (see HERE) was HILARIOUS!

When the pilot attempted to start the engine of the airplane he had rented, he found that the battery strength was insufficient to effect a start, and auxiliary power was used. While en route, the battery became depleted, and there was a total loss of electrical power. The pilot elected to land the airplane at an intermediate airport. He waited until late in the approach to lower the landing gear, which was electric with electric powered indication and manual emergency features. The pilot was unaware of the emergency landing gear extension procedures and landed the airplane with the landing gear retracted. Investigation revealed the alternator was inoperative when the aircraft was rented.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

I consider myself one of the lucky ones. Hurricane Sandy in all her wrath blew down just a few of my trees at home and left my family without gas and power for a while but clearly we got off easy, others not so lucky. At my office in Port Washington the same can be said: no one hurt and just the inconvenience of no power and minimal fuel.
As I drive in to my office along West Shore Road, I pass on a daily basis North Hempstead Beach Park formally known to us old timers as Bar Beach. Bar Beach lies along the coast of Hempstead Harbor. During the winter months Bar beach parking lots are usually vacant. This year however, Bar Beach lots were filled with the cuttings of trees ripped down by Sandy's powerful forces. Every passing day since Sandy's arrival the parking lots filled with stumps, limbs, branches and other tree cuttings.
I know this sounds kind of crazy but it was interesting to see the grave yard of wood slowly eaten by the teeth of chain saws, and jaws of the wood chippers. As I passed Bar Beach daily there was always the faint smell of cut wood. Now more than ever the freshly cut wood smell garnishes the air.
Six months after the storm, the parking lots are now filled with piles of the mulching wood chips. There are bulldozers moving the mulch into large piles ready for the mulch to be moved. The bacterium causing the decomposing of the organic wood generates heat, steam and other gases that rise out of the mulch piles as the bulldozers do their work.
Last week on an overcast day with my camera burning a hole in the back seat of my car, I passed the parking lots where I saw the rising steam coming from the mulch mounds. I had the overwhelming urge to shoot the scene. The photograph here provides a visual image of the mulch mounds at Bar Beach, a constant reminder of the remnants of Sandy.

Parents concerned about classroom sizes spoke up at the Port Washington Board of Education meeting, as the board passed an approval of the larger sizes.
Parents spoke of class sizes at the district's elementary being in the mid 20s, an amount they felt compromised the quality of their children's education.
"The board of education changed our children's education for the worse," said one mother of larger average class sizes the board had approved last year. The comment drew clapping from the audience.

Glendon on Roosevelt and Rights
Professor Mary Ann Glendon set out to write a straightforward history of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. But Eleanor Roosevelt would not let her do it.
"It's similar to what I've heard novelists describe," Glendon said. "The characters took over the story, and Mrs. Roosevelt took over the characters--just the way she did in life."
The result, A World Made New: Eleanor Roosevelt and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (Random House, 2001), chronicles Roosevelt's proudest achievement. After the horror of World War II, she and the other 17 members of the newly formed UN Human Rights Commission were determined to come up with a list of rights so fundamental that no country would openly disavow them.
While the delegates argued, reflected, cajoled, and edited, they saw their window of opportunity narrowing as U.S.-Soviet relations worsened by the minute. By the time the declaration was ratified in 1948, the Cold War had set in and no further progress could be made. Glendon makes it clear that one of Roosevelt's achievements as chairwoman was her practical decision, criticized at the time, to focus on the statement of rights, rather than a binding treaty that was unlikely to be ratified by the U.S. Senate.
Glendon, who grew up in a family where the Roosevelt name was venerated, captures the pragmatic idealism of the former first lady, who brought to the commission the prestige of the Roosevelt name but also her reputation as an outspoken defender of humanitarian causes. Even today, however, the politics behind the treaty are often attacked.
When Glendon discussed her book on a radio program this spring, one caller asked why they were wasting their time with a document that had the mark of the hammer and sickle all over it. And just as often as the declaration is pegged as a socialist document, it is criticized as being too Western to be applicable to the rest of the world. These issues were present for Roosevelt and the other members of the commission, and Glendon grapples with both.
Her research has uncovered that, contrary to what some have claimed, the provisions for economic and social rights often associated with the Soviet Union were in fact supported by representatives from every country on the commission. Eleanor Roosevelt, in particular, saw them as an elaboration of her husband's New Deal and Harry Truman's Fair Deal. As for arguments that the declaration is Western, Glendon says she believes the document to be "impressively but imperfectly multicultural"--impressive in that people from many nations were consulted; imperfect in that people whose countries were still under colonial rule were not represented at the UN in 1948.
Today the UN Human Rights Commission itself is more multicultural. The United States, however, is missing for the first time.
In May the United States was voted off the Human Rights Commission, losing a seat President Bush reportedly considered offering to Glendon.
Glendon feels that the act goes beyond retaliation for what might be viewed as American arrogance or unilateralism. The United States was in the running against Western European countries, and Glendon says the ouster may reflect a feeling that "Europe ought to assert itself as a sort of second force."
The real losers, she predicts, are the United Nations and victims of human rights violations. "What we have now," she said, "is a commission that has failed to elect the United States and has accepted notorious human rights violators such as China, Sudan, and Sierra Leone. This cannot be good for people who are suffering from human rights violations around the world."
Over the years the declaration itself has become a victim of politics, says Glendon, as "nations and interest groups continue to use selected provisions as weapons or shields." This goes on today, she writes. Even human rights supporters treat the declaration "like a menu from which one can select what one likes and leave out the rest." All articles, she says--those involving economic and social provisions as well as political and civil rights--were thought to be indispensable.
Yet Glendon believes that despite the misuse, the declaration is a forward-looking document whose potential has yet to be tapped.
"The Universal Declaration has become the most important point of reference for cross-cultural discussion of human freedom and dignity. It provides the framework and the terminology," Glendon said.
Some people may think such conversations are futile. Yet without them, Glendon says, we are giving up not only on the idealism of Eleanor Roosevelt, but on the conviction--as expressed in the Federalist Papers--that human affairs need not always be governed by accident and force but can be affected by reflection and choice.

Business Phone Systems Featured Article
Smooth UK Promotion Makes it Easy for Businesses to Switch to VoIP
A voice-over-IP (VoIP) provider in the U.K. thinks that all businesses need before they will choose VoIP is a little push.
The company, simplecall business, is offering a unique approach in an attempt to lure business customers away from their existing infrastructure and give VoIP a try. Its tactic: A free upgrade.
The program by simplecall is called the "business phone scrappage scheme," and it allows a business to scrap its old phones and upgrade to a modern IP business phone system for free without any startup costs.
The plan feeds participating U.K. businesses up to £5000 ($8,224) worth of free hardware, and any business with a monthly phone bill of £200 ($330) or more can qualify for the scrappage promotion.
The promotion also comes with a guarantee of lower monthly telephone bills and added functionality that will improve office productivity.
Some of added functionality that simplecall promises the businesses that take up the offer include voicemail to email, three-way calling, missed call list, a record of caller ID, call conferencing, music on hold, scheduled call-routing, interactive voice response IVR, and a smartphone landline app.
The promotion supposedly was inspired by the mobile industry, where customers used to need to buy their own phones but now new phones often come as a free upgrade. The business director for simplecall, Saif Ahmed, said in a statement that the same should be true for VoIP.
"This is just the next logical step in business telephone systems," Mr. Ahmed said. "Upgrading isn't only beneficial because offices are guaranteed to save on their monthly bills, but they also can significantly increase their productivity and ability to communicate with customers."
He added: "It's a no-risk scenario – get free hardware with no upfront costs."
Could this model work in the U.S.? I think it could.
The fundamental sales pitch for VoIP is solid. VoIP delivers a number of benefits, including most notably its cost: Because VoIP uses the Internet instead of the traditional telephone system, it takes dramatically less resources per call even when the data from a call is going over the same copper wires used for telephone calls. This leads to reduced calling costs for just about any business that pursues VoIP as a calling solution, and often businesses can take advantage of a flat rate for U.S. calling.
International calls also are cheaper because the call can go most of the distance without having to use a phone line. So even if the carrier in the other country charges a connection fee, the overall cost of the international call will be lower than without VoIP.
Features, as the simplecall promotion highlights, also are an advantage to using VoIP. It is typical for VoIP offerings to include most or all of the features simplecall is advertising, and to include them for free. These features are carried out with software, so it is easy for VoIP providers to bundle a host of features with calling plans and at no additional cost.
Further, there are benefits that simplecall only has hinted about with its promotion, such as the advantage of mobility and high-definition calling.
With VoIP, customers can take their business phone system with them no matter where they go, as any device that connects to the Internet becomes capable of using VoIP. So it is easy to place business calls from a cell phone, an office phone, or a home-office, among other locations. This is something that traditional calling just cannot match.
Likewise, high-definition calling is a feature that many businesses will appreciate if only they give it a shot. Early VoIP offerings suffered from bad call quality in many cases, the result of using the public Internet instead of any form of network prioritization to ensure good call quality. But now that business VoIP has fixed that problem, VoIP actually can deliver call quality far beyond what traditional phones offer.
The trick is getting businesses to try VoIP, and that's where simplecall and its promotion make a lot of sense. A business might not want to invest in a new phone system when the old system seems to work passably well, and since the company already has invested in the necessary equipment. Even if VoIP is worth the upgrade, there can be an inertia that keeps businesses from upgrading.
With the simplecall promotion, however, these barriers to adoption are eliminated: No investment, no hassle—and something for free, in fact, in addition to a pledge that the change will actually save the company money.
Just like an energy consultant who pays himself by using a portion of the savings he helps his clients discover, simplecall is taking all the downside out of making the upgrade to VoIP. Upgrading becomes a non-brainer for most firms, and in the process simplecall gets a new high-value client.
That's what I call win-win! It also is a smooth way to get businesses trying VoIP.

But he told Reuters Health that it's important for people to know that the improvement was only in soreness. It does not mean the muscle was any stronger.
"It's purely a subjective feeling of less soreness," he said.
And even though the studies, collectively, were able to report some improvement, they were not able to come up with a standard method of treatment.
"If you're looking for the single prescription, it's not available yet. And frankly it's going to be different under different situations," said Dr. Thomas Best, co-director of Ohio State University Sports Medicine, who was not involved in the research.
Best told Reuters Health that the new report does not answer how often an athlete should do the treatment, how long they should stay in the cold water or how long they should wait after they finish exercising.
He added that the average athlete should be careful before they think the results apply to them.
"Most of these studies are done in pretty elite athletes. So, their physiological reserves are probably greater than most people. I think you have to be careful that you don't generalize these conditions to everyone," he said.
Bleakley added that there might be other treatments that work just as well, but there is not enough evidence to compare them. He said they could include massages, stretching and just regular water immersion.
"There are numerous other recovery interventions that are probably not quite as uncomfortable," said Bleakley.
They may be more cost effective, too. Cryotherapy costs can range from the price of filling up a tub with cold water to buying special "cold tub" units that look like a traditional hot tub.
The long-term effects of plunging in and out of bone-chilling water are not well known either.
"I think there still needs to be a degree of caution, especially in the sporting arena where the mantra is the no-pain, no-gain attitude," said Bleakley.

Blackhawks happy to have played so much hockey in last 16 months
BY MARK LAZERUS Staff Reporter May 17, 2014 10:18PM
Counting the regular season, the playoffs and the Olympics, no one in the NHL has played in more games (170) since January 2013 than Hawks center Marcus Kruger. | AP

Blackhawks center Marcus Kruger doesn't play an easy game. He's not out there just skating along, dodging contact, cherry-picking goals. He's a fourth-liner, a checker, a grinder. He's the one working in the corners, diving in front of shots on the penalty kill, routinely getting plastered along the boards and somehow bouncing back to his feet.
And since opening day of last season — Jan. 19, 2013 — Kruger has played in 170 games, counting the regular season, the playoffs and the Olympics. No player in the NHL can match that.
So, yeah, he has been spotted limping a bit after games. And he has spent his share of time in the training room, on the massage table and in the ice tub. But Saturday afternoon, barely 24 hours before the Hawks open the Western Conference finals against the Los Angeles Kings, Kruger was smiling. A couple of days off eliminated the limp. The prospect of another Stanley Cup run eliminated the mental fatigue.
''Right now, you don't think about it,'' Kruger said. ''I think everyone here loves playing hockey, and that's what we want to do. You haven't really thought about how many games you've played because it's been a lot of fun.''
For the Hawks, it has been 16 months unlike any other in the history of the NHL. First came the compressed season after the lockout — 48 games in 99 days. Then came a 23-game grind to the Cup, followed by the shortest offseason (79 days from raising the Cup to opening camp) in hockey history. Then came another compressed season, 82 more games interrupted by a two-week break in which 10 Hawks flew to Russia to compete in the Olympics. Now, another deep postseason run.
It's a ludicrous amount of hockey. And there clearly were times during the regular season when the Hawks lacked the physical and mental will to compete at the highest level — stretches in December and January during which they looked uninterested, stretches in March and April during which they looked exhausted.
''I think all teams go through that,'' Kruger said. ''You have tougher periods where you feel it a little more. But I think we stayed away from any longer slumps. We've done a pretty good job of managing that.''
Much of that ability to keep going comes from a coaching staff that's liberal with days off. Joel Quenne-
ville holds practices only when the Hawks have at least two days off between games, keeping his players fresh mentally and physically. The Kings, by contrast, held a practice Saturday morning — barely 12 hours after playing a Game 7 late Friday against the Anaheim Ducks and before flying cross-country to Chicago for Game 1 on Sunday.
That's not to say the Hawks are 100 percent; no team is at this point of the season. But they've been better equipped to handle the taxing nature of the last 16 months than most teams.
''Everyone has bumps and bruises, and you see the game count and a lot of guys [have] played a lot of games,'' said winger Brandon Saad, who even played 31 games in Rockford during the lockout last season. ''At this time of year, none of that really matters. You might be tired, but these days off and the excitement of the playoffs [help]. Going further each round is definitely a pick-me-up.''
It's only going to get harder from here. The physical toll is greater. The pressure is higher. The plane rides are four times longer. But it's late May, not mid-January. When you're eight victories from another Cup, it's suddenly a lot easier to ignore it and to press on.
''It's been a long grind,'' winger Patrick Sharp said. ''But we couldn't be more excited to be where we are right now.''

DAYTON, Tenn. — Austin Massingill and Jordan Holbert didn't think their five bass were big enough to win the first Tennessee high school state fishing tournament Saturday, but a bigger issue was getting them back to the Dayton Boat Dock to be weighed.
The boat they fished out of had broken down on Lake Chickamauga.
Taylor Massingill, Austin's older brother, was their adult driver per The Bass Federation rules, and a friend of his happened to come by and give the two Soddy-Daisy High School anglers a lift.
It turned out to be a championship ride. Their total of 12 pounds, 8 ounces beat second-place Zach Massey and Chris Johnson of Clinton High by 2 pounds, 5 ounces.
Rhea County's Caleb Kretzer and Lucas Howell were third with 9-7, and teammates Caleb and Mikey Jenkins were sixth with 7-0 behind Walker Valley's Caleb Luzader and Andrew Lyles at 8-11 and Jackson Christian's Darret Fowler and Jonathan Harston at 7-12.
There were 32 boats in the inaugural state event, with six of them from Rhea County and five from Oliver Springs. Sixteen schools were represented, plus one duo of home-schoolers.
"It was tough fishing today," said Rhea coach Brian Derlak, who recently predicted that it would take 21 pounds to win the event. "The water dropped a foot from yesterday, and when it drops that much it really disturbs the fish's normal feeding.
"Our team had been out on Chickamauga five times this year, and the lowest amount we ever had was 13 1/2 pounds."
The winning duo didn't use "any tricks," Holbert said. Taylor Massingill, vice president of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga's bass club, and the Massingills' grandfather, Ronnie Johnson, both are very familiar with the lake and gave them a list of spots to try.
"When they'd quit hitting at one place, we'd just go to another one," Holbert said.
They threw three fish back but still didn't think their total would be in contention for the victory.
"I go to a lot of weigh-ins where they have 20 to 25 pounds," his partner said.
Anyone in high school was eligible to participate, and the younger Massingill knew he wanted to take part after his brother told him about it, but Holbert didn't decide to join him until "last weekend," he admitted. That's despite the fact the two are good friends and have fished a lot together since last summer.
"I'm a last-minute kind of person," Holbert said.
He's a junior and Massingill is a sophomore, but each has a $1,000 UTC scholarship awaiting him as a result of Saturday's victory. Both said that's likely where they'll go.
Before that, though, they plan to defend their state championship next year, and Rhea's Derlak, for one, expects there will be a lot more teams competing before the tournament. Several area schools were represented Saturday.
"We were the first team around here, but other ones are starting to follow," Derlak said. "And this was a great event. The FLW and TBF did a great job with it."

The feel-good factor is hard to find these days so wouldn't it be amazing to find a natural product that offered health and well being for yourself and your family?
Now thanks to Steens newly launched range of high active Manuka honey you can enjoy all these benefits in one little pot. Described as nature's perfect super food, it contains nearly every known nutrient required for a balanced diet.
Manuka honey, sourced from bees that feed on the Manuka Bush native only to New Zealand, is versatile enough to be used for everything from good digestion to healing skin conditions and boosting your immune system. What's more it tastes delicious and can be eaten as an everyday honey.
Manuka honey is famous for its health giving properties and impressive antibacterial elements but not all Manuka honey is the same. Steens raw Manuka honey is the original manuka honey – just as nature intended – unlike other Manuka honeys, which may be reheated, highly processed and denatured. Steens is so special because it is single-source and is loaded with pollen because much of the natural pollens the bees collect are retained during the unique extraction process.
There is no honey more pure than straight from the comb, so Steens created a unique extraction process that delivers honeycomb in a pot. Steens Manuka honey is collected from the most remote and untouched areas of native New Zealand and harvested and packaged at hive temperature, ensuring the purity and quality of the honey.
There is a totally transparency about the antibacterial quality of Steens Manuka honey with each batch tested by an independent laboratory to determine its unique antibacterial levels. Steens also has a unique track and trace system – Hive Tracker – which ensures that each and every customer can see exactly where their Steens Manuka honey comes from.
Steens Manuka honey can be used to treat everything from scrapes and wounds to disease and digestive issues. It is great for the overall health and well-being, including boosting a lustrous and immaculate complexion.
Manuka honey is rated according to its bio active properties; the more antibacterial the higher the rating (e.g. a Raw 15+ has more antibacterial properties than a Raw 5+).
Steens Manuka Honey (in Raw 5+, Raw 10+ and Raw 15+) is available in Waitrose stores nationwide from 28 March in 340g jars, priced from £8.50.
