GAO discussed the: (1) potential impact of the United States Sentencing Commission's proposed sentencing guidelines on the federal prison system; and (2) Commission's request for a delay in implementation of the guidelines. GAO noted that: (1) the Commission believes that its guidelines will have a minimal effect on future prison populations; (2) the Commission still expects significant growth in the federal prison population because of increased convictions and stronger mandatory sentencing requirements; (3) if the Commission's estimates are accurate, it could cost several billion dollars over the next decade to build sufficient prison space; (4) the increased prison population could add as much as $1.1 billion annually to the cost of inmate custody, care, and rehabilitation programs; (5) the Commission's methodology for estimating future prison populations appears reasonable; (6) a delay in implementation of the guidelines would allow for more comprehensive field testing and training; and (7) a delay in implementation would also require legislation that could hinder the Commission's purpose.

- How to Read a Study Record
This proposal is to fund a pilot study to assess feasibility and refine methodology for an intended large Scotland wide study on Response to Oral Agents in Diabetes (ROAD). The study will collect cohorts of patients who have carefully controlled standardised dose titration and monitoring with an assessment of drug response and side effects over a 6 month period. The primary aim will be to use these cohorts to investigate phenotypic and genotypic (pharmacogenetic) determinants of response.
Drug naïve patients will be treated with Metformin. Patients who have failed on Metformin or are intolerant of Metformin will be randomised to gliclazide, pioglitazone or sitagliptin. With the ability to capture patient data beyond 6 months via data linkage we will monitor time to treatment failure and therefore compare which of the 3 oral agents is the best therapy to use after Metformin in a cost efficient and "real world" RCT.

Detailed Description:
The Response to Oral Agents in Diabetes (ROAD) study aims to address the limitations of observational data by creating a prospective study of incident users of oral agents. For the first six months the research team will ensure a protocol driven dose titration, standardised monitoring of adherence, response and side effects and standardised deviations from therapy. Thereafter patients will receive 6 monthly monitoring and further protocol led dose titration by the GP. Biochemistry, prescribing data, morbidity and mortality data will be captured for up to 10 years from drug initiation. The ROAD study will provide a highly powered prospective cohort to investigate phenotypic and genotypic determinants of response in its own right. However, this cohort will be used synergistically with ongoing observational pharmacogenetics studies, allowing for crucial replication of 'positive' signals. Furthermore, by randomisation at drug initiation, long term community follow up will allow a comparison of time to treatment failure in patients treated with gliclazide, pioglitazone and sitagliptin in a much more cost effective and 'real-world' setting than traditional prospective randomised trials This pilot study is to assess the feasibility of the larger complex intervention, particularly optimising the patient recruitment process, questionnaires, dose titration and monitoring, and randomisation to different second line agents. With knowledge from this pilot, an application will be made for a large region or Scotland wide study to collect 2000 patients incident to oral diabetes treatment.

Tweet3PO's creators say the future of crime fighting isn't neighborhood watch - it's social media
Published: June 7, 2012
Grobleski says it's common for law enforcement to take a while to embrace things.
"Law enforcement agencies, like the OCSO, are more about protecting data than releasing it," he says. "It takes them a longer time to understand the full concepts of new technologies like Tweet3PO, especially with policies and procedures in their way."
But once the sheriff's department made its calls for service public, Diggz and Grobleski got to work.
"As soon as the data went up, we have been working on delivering the active calls to our twitter feed," Grobleski says. "We should have it finished within the next month or so."
The sheriff's department has also been delivering information through its own social media outlets.
"We are currently involved in social media through the use of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube," Nieves says. "And [we] use the mainstream access of emails, ocso.com, business and neighborhood watch and community meetings, news conferences, to name a few, as informational outlets to keep the community and residents informed."
For the record, as of press time, the Orange County Sheriff's Office had 259 Twitter followers, OPD had 455 followers and Tweet3PO had 577.
And the more people who sign up, the more opportunities people will have to see how being armed with information can help them combat crime and deal with neighborhood issues.
Diggz himself has a personal Tweet3PO experience that he likes to share to show people just how useful it can be to stay constantly connected to a steady stream of public information.
"I was away from home visiting San Francisco last year," he says. "I received a Tweet3PO notification there was an 'obstruction on highway' in front of my house in Orlando. I called one of my neighbors and asked them to look outside."
Another neighbor's 80-year-old oak tree had fallen over and landed in Diggz's yard.
"No one was hurt and there was no damage to my house," Diggz says, "but the fact that I knew about it across the country in San Francisco, before my neighbor did, was pretty awesome."

It's official: winter is upon us - but that does not mean you have to sacrifice on style. A stream of fashionable femmes have provided us with excellent examples of how to look chic off-duty in a cosy cover-up. During Paris Fashion Week, we spotted Emma Stone trotting through the streets working the hottest trend du jour - leather accents - while Amanda Seyfried went the minimalist route courtesy of her camel coat. Leighton Meester's polished perfection also had as agog when she stepped out in NY and Fearne Cotton has kept us entertained with her carousel of winter warmers. So whether you make like Rihanna in a military-inspired get-up or go ladylike with a clinched waist a la Anna Kendrick and Dianna Agron, take some coat-spiration from this week's finest crammed into the gallery above. You'll be thanking us when the chill sets in!

the plunge
if someone would have said to me a year ago that i would soon be spending time with a buddhist priest, sitting down to have a glass of wine with her and talk about zen, motherhood and love, i would have most certainly replied, "are you nuts?".
well saturday afternoon along the perfect path of my life, this is where i was: having a cup of chowder and sipping sauvignon blanc with karen maezen miller. the mother's plunge, and especially my time spent sitting across a small tavern table from karen, i know is one of those indelible experiences i always will remember. it was one of those times where you feel a tiny but noticeable shift in your molecules… where you feel somehow changed but don't know exactly how that change will manifest.
karen would say, it's love. love for my life. love for this moment. love for what we all shared and brought to fruition. love for what is possible. it is as simple and complex as that and i am doing my best not to ruminate on it too much and just let the practice take hold, just like maezen encouraged and taught.
i do want to also say a very special thank you to my husband who from behind the scenes, helped to make this day possible for all of us. he opened the doors of his school and allowed 40 beautiful women to come together in this humble but breathtaking space. the weather was stellar and the view was spectacular. the stage was set for an unforgettable event thanks to him and a few of his seaport staff.
i'm still surrounded by love and immersed in gratitude for it all.

Thank YOU, and thank you to your husband and his helpers :)
It was truly an incredible, beautiful day.
Mindy, So glad to have found your blog, and to know you now. Isn't it a marvel, the way a book, a few words, a commitment, can bring about such wondrous things. We wouldn't have had Saturday if not for you and your vision, your belief that if you put Karen Maezen Miller in a room by the sea, wonderful women would show up. You believed right! A million thanks. k
So lovely to have met you in person. You are a kind, true, spirit and a gem to have created this experience. Thank you! Got to spend it with you, Meg and meet Jena and of course, Karen and Katrina. What a delicious concotion I am still taking it in!
I love so much that you didn't try to "encapsulate" it too much….more words would not have given me a better understanding of what you experienced. I totally got it. :)

Redskins Place Keenan Robinson On Injured Reserve, Sign Roddrick Muckelroy
By ZAC BOYER
(Originally posted 11/26/12, 2:45 p.m.; Updated 11/26/12, 8:16 p.m.)
ASHBURN – The Washington Redskins confirmed Monday that Keenan Robinson tore his pectoral muscle in the 38-31 victory at Dallas on Thursday and placed him on injured reserve, ending his season.
Robinson, a 6-foot-3, 238-pound inside linebacker drafted in the fourth round out of Texas in April, finished his rookie season with 11 tackles while playing as a reserve. He was used increasingly in the Redskins' nickel and dime packages in recent weeks, playing 19 snaps against the Cowboys on Thursday and against Philadelphia the previous Sunday.
"I think Keenan was doing a great job," head coach Mike Shanahan said. "He's very athletic. He's got size. He's got ability, speed, very smart. I thought he was picking things up very quickly. I liked his attitude, his work ethic – everything you look for in a guy, I believe he has."
To replace Robinson on the active roster, the Redskins signed Roddrick Muckelroy, a 6-foot-2, 250-pound linebacker who was drafted by Cincinnati in 2010 but waived on Nov. 9.
Muckelroy played in 14 games during his rookie season and had 10 tackles, then missed all of last season because of a torn Achilles tendon. He played in five games this year before he was waived.

Customize AutoCAD through Programming28 Mar, 2013 By: Andrew G. Roe
Learn how to search for text and modify layers with Visual Studio.NET.
Consider the following scenario: In an AutoCAD drawing with a large amount of text, you want to find all the text containing a certain word or phrase, then move that text to a specific layer. Perhaps the drawing has some notes containing the word "valve," for example, and you want to consolidate all this text in a layer called Valves.
AutoCAD provides a nice search-and-replace feature — the Find command — and with a few extra clicks we could move the identified text to another layer. But for a more automated approach to modifying text properties, you will need to put on your customization hat.
In my previous articles about AutoCAD programming, we learned how to use the .NET programming environment to extract drawing information, create AutoCAD entities, and modify them programmatically. In this article, we will combine some of these tools and explore more deeply how we can use .NET programming tools to accomplish the task at hand.
As before, this example uses the Visual Basic.NET programming environment, although you can use Visual C#.NET instead. To complete this exercise, you'll need either Visual Studio.NET or the free Visual Studio Express. (If you're using AutoCAD 2013, you should also download the ObjectARX software development kit [SDK] to run this example. Even though it's not an ObjectARX example, the necessary references are located in the SDK for 2013.)
Create a Text Search Program
1. Start Visual Studio and create a new VB.NET project called TextSeeker. (If you need a refresher on creating a new project, see "The World of AutoCAD Programming Platforms, Part 3.")
2. Double-click on My Project in the Solution Explorer; the Project Properties screen will appear.
3. Click the References tab on the left.
4. Click the Add button to display the Add Reference dialog box.
5. In the Add Reference dialog box, click the Browse tab, and navigate to the folder containing AutoCAD's DLL files. Typically this is the ObjectARX 2013\inc-win32 or ObjectARX 2013\inc-win64 folder, depending on which version of AutoCAD you are using. Select the Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common.dll and Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.dll files by clicking on one and Ctrl+clicking on the other.
(Note: This example is for AutoCAD 2013. If you are using AutoCAD 2012 or older versions, you can click the COM tab and select the appropriate type library and ObjectDBX common type library: axdb18enu.tlb and acax18enu.tlb for AutoCAD 2012. Alternatively, you can download the ObjectARX SDK for older versions and reference the two DLL files listed above.)
6. Click OK to close the Add Reference dialog box.
7. Double-click on the Form1.vb[Design] tab to display the form. From the Toolbox, click and drag a text box, a list box, a button, and two labels onto the form, arranging them as shown below.
8. Click View > Properties Window. In the Properties window, change the Text property for the button to Search and Modify.
9. Change the Text property for the form to Text Seeker.
10. Change the Text property for the two labels to Search String and Target Layer, respectively. The form should now look like the image below.
11. Double-click the button to display the Code window. A subroutine is already set up for the button you just double-clicked.
12. Modify the code to read as shown below, inserting the first two lines at the top of the code window and the others to fit within the preset code. (Hint: You can copy and paste the code instead of retyping it!)
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.Common Public Class Form1 ' AutoCAD must be open before running this example. Dim AcadApp As AcadApplication Dim acadDoc As AcadDocument Dim objEntity As AcadEntity Dim objLayer As AcadLayer Dim objText As AcadText Dim objNewLayer As Object Dim txtSearch As String Dim intTextEntities As Integer Dim intMatch As Integer Dim blnFound As Boolean Public Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If txtSearch = Nothing Or objNewLayer = Nothing Then MsgBox("You must enter a search string and a layer.") Exit Sub End If intTextEntities = 0 For Each objEntity In acadDoc.ModelSpace Select Case objEntity.ObjectName Case "AcDbText", "AcDbMText" intTextEntities = intTextEntities + 1 blnFound = objEntity.textstring.ToString.Contains(txtSearch) ' Find string in text. If blnFound = True Then intMatch = intMatch + 1 Dim UserResult As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Found match. Do you want to change layers?", "Change Layer", MessageBoxButtons.YesNoCancel, MessageBoxIcon.Question) Select Case UserResult Case DialogResult.Yes objEntity.Layer = objNewLayer Case DialogResult.No ' Do nothing Case DialogResult.Cancel Exit Sub End Select End If End Select Next MessageBox.Show("Found " & intTextEntities & " text entity(ies) and " & _ intMatch & " match(es) to the search string: " & txtSearch) Close() End Sub End Class
Let's examine what we have so far, as this might look confusing if you're a novice programmer. With references properly set, the Imports statements are used to specify which libraries, or namespaces, will be accessed by the application. Dim statements declare variables for the AutoCAD Application and Document objects, as well as for the various AutoCAD objects we'll be accessing. A String variable is declared to store the value for a search string, and Integer variables are declared to store values for the number of entities found and the number of matches found.
The code following the Dim statements might be even more confusing, so let's look at the highlights to remove some of the mystery. The Public Sub Button1… line identifies the beginning of a subroutine that defines what happens when the user clicks Button 1. An If…Then block ensures that the user enters a search string and selects a layer. A For Each…Next loop searches through all entities in the drawing, and a Select Case structure finds only the text and multi-line text entities (AcDbText and AcDbMText, respectively). Another Select Case structure determines what happens when the user clicks a button in a dialog box. A message box displays the results at the end of the search.
We still have some more code to add before we're ready to run this program.
13. In the Code window, just above the End Class statement, add the following:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _ Handles MyBase.Load txtSearch = Nothing intMatch = 0 intTextEntities = 0 AcadApp = GetObject(, "AutoCAD.Application") acadDoc = AcadApp.ActiveDocument For Each objLayer In acadDoc.Layers ListBox1.Items.Add(objLayer.Name) Next End Sub Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged txtSearch = TextBox1.Text End Sub Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e _ As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged objNewLayer = ListBox1.SelectedItem End Sub End Class
The first piece of code contains a subroutine that defines what happens when the form loads. It assigns initial values for the text and integer variables, then gets the AutoCAD application object and document objects, respectively. A For Each…Next loop populates the list box with a list of active layers in the drawing.
The next code snippet contains a subroutine that defines what happens when the user types something in the text box and assigns this to the txtSearch variable. The final segment identifies which layer the user selects and assigns it to the objNewLayer variable. Let's test the program.
1. With AutoCAD running and a drawing with some text entities open, click the Play button (or press F5) to build and run the application.
2. Type some text that matches existing text somewhere in the drawing.
3. Select a layer from the list box, as shown in the figure below.
4. Click the button to search for the text and ask the user whether to move it to the selected layer.
5. Click the X in the upper-right corner of the form to stop execution of the program and close the form.
You can click File > Save All to save the code, the form, and the other elements of your .NET application. Visual Studio creates an EXE file that can be run as a standalone application outside the .NET environment.
You can also create a plugin — a module that can be run from within the AutoCAD environment. Autodesk describes this process in an online training document, "My First Plug-in Training."
This example illustrates some key concepts of accessing the AutoCAD object model and modifying entities programmatically. It requires AutoCAD to be running and contains no error handling.
In a real application, you'd want to check to see if AutoCAD is running, and if not, start it. You'd also want to provide error handling for those inevitable situations where users try to make the program do something unintended. And you can probably think of various ways to further customize this example, but this shows you how to get started.
In future installments of this series, we'll continue to explore additional facets of AutoCAD programming, such as building plugins and working with Autodesk's vertical products. If you would like to suggest a topic, feel free to send me an e-mail.

Thirty years ago the administration of the University of Leeds was brought to a standstill when hundreds of students staged a four-day sit-in at the Parkinson Building. The era of student protest had arrived in Leeds with a vengeance. Playing a central role in the occupation was the then President of the Students Union, Jack Straw.
Three decades on, Jack Straw is Home Secretary, and the University Archive is marking the anniversary of the 1968 protests with an exhibition in the Parkinson Building itself and a virtual exhibition on the World Wide Web.
Not that student activism can be confined entirely to the archives, of course. The recent occupation of the Roger Stevens Lecture Theatre, by around 100 students objecting to tuition fees, rekindled memories of the 1968 events.
But student protest just isnt what it used to be, as can be seen from the wealth of material on display in the exhibition. If Leeds wasnt exactly at the centre of student unrest in the 1960s, the University was certainly caught up in the spirit of the times as activism swept Europe. Whereas todays student protests tend to focus on material issues such as grants and fees, the sixties generation had their eye on wider issues.
The Leeds disturbances kicked off on 3 May 1968, when right-wing Tory MP Patrick Wall addressed a meeting of the Conservative Association in the Students Union. The meeting attracted around 400 protestors who objected to the MPs views on race, his support for the white regime in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), and his backing for the US war effort in Vietnam.
According to press reports at the time, Patrick Wall was spat on as he left the meeting, while his wife Sheila was allegedly kicked and knocked to the ground. I put the whole thing down to pre-exam nerves and damned bad manners, said Mrs Wall afterwards.
Dancing days: President of the Leeds University Union, Jack Straw, and the University's current Chancellor, Her Royal Highness the Dutchess of Kent, at a Union dinner and ball in 1968. (click to enlarge)
"On one occasion the students came along and complained about the house of one of the rebels being spied on by two men in raincoats under a tree. They turned out to be from the trams department, checking the times of trams."
University security staff were set the task of identifying the suspected spitter and the alleged kicker. During the course of these enquiries, allegations surfaced about students being interrogated on their political beliefs. This provoked further unrest.
Emeritus Professor Maurice Beresford recalls the allegations that the flying around at the time. The big issue was what was in the files that were being kept on students. On one occasion the students came along and complained about the house of one of the rebels being spied on by two men in raincoats under a tree. They turned out to be from the trams department, checking the times of trams.
Following an attempted sit-in by the newly formed militant May 3rd Committee, on 25 June members of the Students Union voted by 386 to 48 to occupy the Parkinson Building, then the administrative heart of the University. They demanded a public inquiry into the actions of the Universitys security staff, and put up a notice which read: The Vice-Chancellors office, the Registrars office and the Bursars office are closed indefinitely. By order of LUU Action Committee.
In response, a special meeting of the University Senate authorised Vice-Chancellor Sir Roger Stevens to call-off all meetings with the Union until the occupation ended.
Hundreds of students joined the rota to keep the sit-in going 24-hours-a-day, and various committees were formed to organise security, food and entertainment. Leeds Trades Union Council sent up its banner in support, and the students listened to speakers from other universities in the UK and even France.
At the time, Maurice Kirk was a Social Studies lecturer and a member of Senate. He describes the atmosphere: I clearly recall in the Parkinson Building there were groups of serious-minded students trying to run their own tutorials and seminars, in what was a noisy marketplace atmosphere. The other thing that stuck in my mind was seeing a girl walking up Woodhouse Lane carrying the black and red banner of the Sorbonne anarchists, because the Leeds students were very taken up with the troubles on the streets of Paris in May 1968.
Unlike the May 3 demonstration against Patrick Wall, the Leeds sit-in was fully supported by the Students Union and President Jack Straw. After the future Home Secretary stood on a table to address a 500-strong meeting in the Parkinson Court, he was given a standing ovation which lasted ten minutes.
Not everyone was impressed, however. A young political studies student by the name of Clare Short - now a Cabinet colleague of Jack Straw - recalls: There were sit-ins going on everywhere. I went and had a look, and Jack was reading all these telegrams of support from across the country. I remember thinking this is very silly.
Like many academic staff at the time, I really couldnt make out what the students wanted, says Maurice Kirk. The whole atmosphere of 1968 started in France and Germany, and I think the students just wanted to make a noise.
After four days the sit-in ended on the evening of Friday 28 June with a march to the Union building. The University refused the students demands for a public inquiry. And then came the summer holidays.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - A Senate health committee is recommending that the state suspend the Office of Insurance Regulation's power to set rates for insurers under the Affordable Care Act and instead let the federal government handle that responsibility.
With federal officials still issuing new regulations weekly, lawmakers decided it would be best for the feds to oversee that approval process for the next year or two, especially because there will likely be large rate increases.
The Office of Insurance Regulation will continue to review new policies to make sure they are in compliance with state laws.
The committee also voted Monday to extend health coverage to the state's part-time employees, reasoning the $137 million a year coverage cost is cheaper than paying a $318 million fine.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- Republican state Sen. Harry Blevins is retiring from the seat he has held for a dozen years.
The 77-year-old Blevins announced during Wednesday's one-day reconvened legislative session that his retirement will be effective Aug. 5, with two years left on his term. That sets up an August special election in Blevins' Chesapeake-based district for the seat he has held since 2001.
Blevins was a member of the House for three years before winning a special election in 2001 to succeed Randy Forbes, who had been elected to Congress.

Fox was reunited with more than 100 members from four generations of her family at this year's fair.
The fair has come along way since Fox was a child and watched the harness races from atop the boxcars of a nearby train.
She has a number of State Fair ribbons she's earned over the years for afghans and sweaters she's made, even for a best senior citizen's legs contest in 1986.

The sys admin's daily grind: SendmailAnalyzer
Troop Visit
During the ongoing battle against spam, admins should inspect their troop's battle lines from time to time. If you don't relish the thought of counting the dinnerware, you can use the services of a logfile inspector like SendmailAnalyzer, which works surprisingly well with Postfix and the like.
I ran Sendmail 8.7 on the first mail server I operated for a large group of users, and it was hate at first sight. I kept up this War of the Roses until 8.9.0 and later moved to Postfix. In the years that followed, I lost track of the Sendmail Server Analyzer. It was not until I read a small post online that I understood that SendmailAnalyzer also can evaluate Postfix logs and messages from Amavisd-new, ClamAV, SpamAssassin, Postgrey, and other MTA appendages. High time to try out the tool.
SendmailAnalyzer comes as a sleek tar.gz package and relies on the existence of Perl and the GD libraries. After the install, you need to set up a cronjob to take care of data caching. The analyzer itself can run in the foreground or as a system service; the developers have kindly included start/ stop scripts to match. The configuration is handled in the sendmailanalyzer.conf file, although command-line parameters are also possible. The most important setting is right at the top of the configuration file.

Written by Anusha Kambhampaty, firstname.lastname@example.com Thursday, 10 October 2013 00:00
Indian tradition is kept alive in New York as 16-year-old Manasa Pisipati, a student at the Nritya Saagaram Dance Academy in Syosset, performs a three-hour solo classical dance performance.
Pisipati graced the stage on Aug. 31 at the Flushing Hindu Temple Auditorium in Queens, performing eight intricate dance pieces in the South Indian dance style known as Bharatanatyam.
Bharatanatyam is the oldest of all the classical dance styles in India, originating over 2,000 years ago. While other Indian dance styles have been influenced by British colonialism or Muslim rule, Bharatanatyam has remained largely untouched. Bharatanatyam pays homage to Hindu deities through mimed story telling as well as statuesque poses and complex footwork. It is known for its grace, purity and tenderness.
Accompanied by a renowned orchestral ensemble consisting of vocals, traditional drums, known as the tabla, violin, flute, and cymbals, Manasa debuted her extensive dance training to an audience of hundreds. This solo dance presentation is known as an 'Arangetram,' which literally means to ascend the stage. It marks the student's introduction as a dancer as well as a sort of graduation from the years of rigorous training needed to execute such a physically and mentally taxing performance.
Her teacher, Satya Pradeep, who runs the Nritya Saagaram Dance Academy, trained her for the past eight years.
Maintaining grace, composure and maturity throughout the recital, Manasa charmed the audience with her expressive facial expressions and brisk postures. The performance opened with a tribute to the elephant headed deity, Lord Ganesha, set to melodic traditional classical music that was coupled with Manasa's rhythmic dance steps and elegant movements.
Paying homage to her Indian roots, Manasa brought to life various stories of Hindu deities that have immense cultural and religious significance to Indian Americans. For example, Manasa portrayed several of Lord Krishna's childhood pranks, which Indians have grown up listening to, such as Krishna teasing women by stealing their clothes. Manasa received standing ovation for her performance by the spellbound audience.

ROCKFORD (WIFR) -- Another new initiative in District 205 is high school career academies. Today students got a taste of some local careers. Kids at Jefferson High school got to check out the academy expo with more than 60 local businesses and agencies. Students got to speak with manufacturing companies, Police, even EMT's, about their line of work. The idea is to give students a direction when they pick one of four academies next school year.
"A lot of people say we're dropping out of school and stuff so I think this helps the whole high school community and everyone around here realize what they want to do with their lives and it helps them realize what they want to go to college for," said Corterryis Ford, a junior at Jefferson High.
Academies are piloting with freshmen at Jefferson High School this year. Next year, all students at Jefferson will be in academies. That's also when freshmen at the other high schools will pick academies.

Surfers protest wave power project
Surfers based in Cornwall, by habit staunch environmentalists, have found themselves lining up against Wave Hub, one of the UK's first wave power projects. The installation is an experimental set up, being installed off the coast by local authorities and power companies. It will be used to test and develop new technologies to …
Golf Courses
I think it would be an excellent idea to force golf courses to put up wind power generators. This could go towards an overall carbon neutrality and make up for all the car journeys to them and the power and water resources used to maintain them.
An aspect of crazy golf would put some much needed humour back into a game taken far too seriously... Plus it would add an additional aspect of difficulty to the long par 5s if you had to time your tee off to miss the blades of the wind generator.
If the MOD can't hold them back...
I doubt a load of surfers can.
Still, that's not a bad suggestion of putting windmills on golf courses.
Re: Golf Courses
Wouldn't all the trees all over every golf course already settle their carbon debt in terms of emissions from cars driving to the course? Mind you, they could always sell the extra carbon credit from running windmills to other companies, not to mention the profit gained from putting energy into the power grid!
But then, can you see the likes of Tiger Woods putting up with the VERY loud "whumpf, whumpf" noise of a wind farm at St. Andrews while he's trying to putt on the 18th hole?
Surfer pollution
Wave power might just help make up for the CO2 pumped into the air by all those noisy (air cooled) VW camper vans so beloved of surfers. You know, the ones with the uniform tie-dye sheets blowing out of the side door on the beach.
Surf NIMBYs
So surfers want to hinder the progress of (relatively) clean energy because it spoils their hobby?
It's an obvious question but still a valid one: what do they propose as an alternative? We all use energy so we've all got a responsibility to deal with the consequences of that energy use.
In response to Steve Roper
No, trees on golf courses will not offset fossil fuel emissions from vehicles driving to them. Trees don't magic away CO2 to another dimension, they merely store carbon, and when they die and rot away or are burnt, the CO2 is released again. If burning is used to replace the burning of fossil fuels (such as using a wood-burning stove rather than a gas boiler), then theoretically you get a benefit, but think of all the fossil fuel used to harvest and transport the wood.
And anyway, golf courses have acres of grass which was probably covered with trees before they were built.
Matthew Marks
Another response to Steve Roper
You gotta be kidding. The whole point of golf courses is that they comprise acres of expensively manicured grass which *doesn't* have trees on it. Of course some have pitiful clusters of trees around them, but that doesn't exactly make a productive carbon 'sink'.
As for the 'VERY LOUD' wind farms - have you actually seen one? The enormous wind farm on Gran Canaria for example is virtually inaudible when we visit a relative who lives nearby.
What I can't figure is, how come every time a company looks at doing a project like this - they always seem to decide from the outset that they're going to do it right where someone else has a conflicting interest. Whatever happened to the 'planning' stage in project management?
Wind farms are beautiful!
I live in Denmark. There are windmills all over the place, so listen to someone that has actually lived near a wind farm. I can see a bunch of them beyond the end of our road. They're mounted about 1km offshore but visible between the buildings.
They are exuisitely graceful and elegant because of the way the blades spin slightly out of sync with each other. An array of white windmills, sails rotating against a blue sky gives you that warm fuzzy feeling of harnessing the power of nature without spilling out ghastly waste products.
You can only hear them if you get right up close and then they make a wonderful deep-toned 'swoosh'. Most people who complain about the aesthetics of wind farms have never been anywhere near one. Anyone who appreciates the aesthetics of golf should 'dig' wind farms. They look so clean, and they operate in complete safety even when unattended.
Compare with a nuke plant or a CHP installation: Chimneys, smoke haze, cooling towers, high security fences, the accumulation of dangerous waste products, ugly, monstrous architecture which doesn't even move, and which (in the case of nukes) are always at risk of causing major disasters, genetic mutations, cancer and so on if not continually supervised. (That makes them ideal terrorist targets too. Would Al Qaeda be interested in blowing up a windmill?)
They key word here is British *Isles* - i.e. surrounded by WAVES. Not using them for energy is absurd. Plenty of wind too, and I'm not just talking about the warm guff breezing out of the politicians mouths.
If wave farms are even one tenth as elegant as wind farms, I'm almost sold on the aesthetics alone.
Protest about "protest" usage
They aren't protesting the wave power project. They are protesting *about* it.

England marched to an emphatic 82-0, 12 try victory over Kazakhstan on Tuesday in the second round of the Women's Rugby World Cup pool games at Surrey Sports Park in Guildford.
The host nation, who defeated Ireland 27-0 in the tournament opener last weekend, put on a dominant display which left Kazakhstan with few answers.
Richmond's Fiona Pocock, who grabbed a hat-trick of tries, was named Woman of the Match but there were many stand out players during this clash. No.8 Sarah Beale enjoyed a storming game while Charlotte Barras grabbed a hat-trick. Both Beale and Barras were also playing in their first match for England this year having been out of action through injury and illness.
England Head Coach Gary Street said: "It's really pleasing to get a result like this, especially in these windy conditions. We have still got to look to iron out some errors so there are things to work on but Kazakhstan certainly put on a physical and committed performance tonight. Our defence was good, the forwards grafted hard and got the good clean ball out to our backs, so really they deserve a lot of credit for this result.
"I think the result tonight also underlines that we have a squad of 26 who are capable of winning this world cup, not just a team of 22 and that is vital."

AUDIO – Katy MacLean's reaction to the win against Kazakhstan
After securing England's first points against Ireland, fullback Pocock kicked off Tuesday's win in the same vein, scoring the opening try on three minutes. England dominated from the first whistle and their constant pressure paid off when the ball was recycled out to the left wing with centre Michaela Staniford offloading to Pocock. Captain Katy McLean converted.
Seven minutes later and England were 14-0 up when Barras, playing on the wing, showed a tremendous turn of speed to shake off the Kazakhstan defence and score in the right corner for a converted try. And the tourists didn't learn from their mistakes either with Barras repeating her efforts ten minutes later to score her second try. With McLean stroking over her third conversion England were 21-0 up after as many minutes.
Lichfield No.8 Beale clinched the all important bonus point for England after just 26 minutes following a solid England line out where lock Tamara Taylor poped the ball short to Beale who stormed down the five metre channel, burst through the defence and touched down.
Substitute Katherine Merchant and centre Rachael Burford then rounded off the first half with two further tries. Burford took a high ball and charged 45 metres upfield unopposed and McLean converted each try, meaning England led 42-0 at the break.

England played into the gusty wind in the second half but it didn't stop their momentum. Scrum half La Toya Mason took the first try after spotting a gap on the left wing, which McLean again converted.
A good England scrum and drive highlighted the hard work of the forwards and saw them come close to scoring. Replacement Amy Turner then had a go herself but couldn't quite make the try line but Pocock scooped up the ball to score her second. Mason this time took over the kicking duties from the substituted McLean, but stroked the ball home with the same ease.
AUDIO – Tamara Taylor's reaction to the win against Kazakhstan
Try number three for Pocock came moments later and it was an impressive one which showed her tremendous turn of speed, quick feet and cool composure as she stepped and swerved around Kazakhstan's defence to score.
With ten minutes remaining, England showed no intention of letting up and managed to run in a further three tries, this time with Roz Crowley, Amber Penrith and Barras taking the honours.
England play the USA next in the final game of the pool stages on Saturday at Surrey Sports Park, Guildford, kick off 6.30pm.

At Skateworld of Kettering, families strap on their gliding shoes to coast across the rink to the sounds of kid-appropriate tunes. During themed skating sessions, guests can glide to Radio Disney tracks, Top 40 hits, and disco ballads before feeding one of many arcade games with their hard-earned tokens. Tired tots can refuel by sinking their teeth into pizza or working on the blueprints for their perpetual-motion clone at the concessions stand.
Skaters cover a lot of ground at SkateTown USA. The hardwood maple skating surface sprawls across 35,000 square feet, spacious enough for skaters to spin and glide, and glossy enough for them to take mirror selfies. When they need a break, skaters nosh on snacks from the concession stand, such as pizza, wings, and slushies?or cold brews for grownups. The arcade allows upper extremities to get a workout with skeeball, air hockey, and a selection of redemption games.
RiverScape MetroPark is one of 25 outstanding facilities operated by your Five Rivers MetroParks system. Founded in 1963 to serve the greater Dayton area, MetroParks protects over 15,000 acres of open space and provides year-round recreation, education and conservation opportunities. Today, Five Rivers oversees biking and hiking trails, campgrounds, and scenic locales for things like ice skating and cross-country skiing.
Beneath glimmering disco balls and colorful graffiti murals, roller skaters of all ages and experience levels careen across the hardwood floors of Fun Factory Roller Skating's indoor rink. The kid-friendly melodies of Radio Disney serenade pint-size skaters each Saturday morning, and top pop ballads resound across the rink on Saturday and Sunday nights. Gearing up patrons for wheeled motion, the onsite shop equips patrons with skates for rent or purchase, though customers are responsible for feeding and watering them.
Beyond the rink, the facility's sizeable arcade engages thumbs, and a bounce house ricochets lively lads and lasses off colorful, cushioned walls. After an action-packed day of exertion, guests can refuel at the concession stand with pizza and snacks. The center opens its facilities for private parties, field trips, and fundraisers while frequently inviting costumed characters to interact with kids and talk Wall Street with adults.
When skaters of all ages aren't perfecting figure eights on its NHL-size rink during public-skating hours, Northland Ice Center plays host to the Cincinnati Cyclones' practice squad, uniting amateurs and pros on its flat, frozen playground. Open year-round since 1973, the frosty arena also sets the stage for skating and hockey lessons, during which instructors impart their skills according to a curriculum formulated by U.S. Figure Skating. Athletes slap pucks and hot potatoes to teammates in youth and adult hockey leagues, and friends and families feast on pizza and cake in private party rooms before taking to the ice.
With a snack bar refueling legs and a pro shop sharpening blades to razor edges next to the ice, outings can stretch on into the evening or until a triple axle gone awry slices the zamboni's power cord.
SKYBORN SKATELAND Family Fun Center opened in 1956 and still has that "Retro" feel. Skyborn Skateland serves the entire Dayton, OH market area. You can skate on an 80 X 170 Rotunda Maple Skating Surface and a GREAT Sound System and HUGE Video Screen! We have over 50 years of being Family oriented, providing Fun for ALL!
