Celebrating Champions of Change
July 20, 2012 by Candace Gingrich, Associate Director, Youth and Campus Engagement Program
The best ideas come from the American people. Everyone has a story to tell, everyone has a part to play.
This is the premise behind the White House "Champions of Change" initiative which recognizes "ordinary Americans who are doing extraordinary things". In June the White House presented an LGBT Pride Month Video Challenge and six inspiring entries were chosen. I was fortunate to be invited to the event honoring those represented in the winning videos and the stories and messages I heard were truly inspiring.
The individuals and groups represented covered a wide range of advocacy – from youth suicide prevention to LGBT community centers to advocating for LGBT seniors. JJ Kahle is a teacher in The Blake School in Minneapolis who advises the school's Gay-Straight Alliance and encourages those who know that "it gets better" to pledge to "make it better". She also discussed the importance of protection from workplace discrimination (like ENDA) in allowing faculty and staff to freely advocate for and work with LGBT students. Heather Carter spoke of the power of human contact and the importance of making a difference even if it is just in one life at a time. Representatives of the Military Acceptance Project explained how Marine veteran Eric Alva inspired their tag-line of "we're just like you," and how their organization advocates for LGBT servicemembers and their families. We were also treated to a performance by Champions of Change the Redwood String Quartet, who use music to transcend differences. Their performance of "Adagio for Strings" by the openly-gay Samuel Barber was haunting and held the entire audience in rapt attention.
These six Champions of Change were humbly inspiring and each one made it a point to remind the audience that making change happen is something that everyone is capable of doing. I couldn't agree more.

'A bit of an adventure'
New Zealander Berry uses soccer to see the world

When Nicolai Berry scored his first goal as a Buffalo soccer player, he ran around, stretching his arms to his side and imitating an airplane. It was a famous celebration amongst his family - he performed it often as child when he scored.
But there was a marked difference in the way his parents watched his celebration when he scored against Vermont Sept. 1. Berry's parents weren't watching in the stands; they were watching from over 8,000 miles away - on a live online stream at 6 a.m. in Auckland, New Zealand.
Berry, a freshman midfielder for the men's soccer team, grew up in Auckland and moved to Buffalo this fall. Amid his transition to a new culture in the United States, Berry has excelled on the pitch. He ranks second on the team in points and has started in 12 of 13 games.
Berry began playing soccer at 5 years old, and his talent led him to play in countries throughout the world including Fiji, France, England and Switzerland - it gave him his first taste of international soccer and filled him with a desire to travel.
That desire was one of his main reasons for coming to America for college.
"I wanted to do something different than the standard day-to-day life back home," Berry said. "I wanted to have a bit of an adventure and see the world."
Berry chose UB because of first-year head coach Stu Riddle. Riddle is also a native of New Zealand and Berry refers to their relationship as the "Kiwi connection."
"It's a very tough adjustment for him," Riddle said. "I went through it myself coming over. I think he's done a really good job adjusting and [he's] fit in really well with the lads. But that's very typical of New Zealanders. We're very extroverted people who like to travel and see new things."
Berry's teammates have been a big help during his adjustment. Twelve of the team's 23 players are foreigners, and Berry said he likes being a part of a diverse team.
Though he was not completely unaware of the United States' culture (he caught a glimpse of the states through American television and cinema), Berry wondered if the portrayed image would be accurate.
"The culture of everything is so different in America," Berry said. "You watch the movies and TV [of American college life] where I'm from, so it's kind of cool to be here and experience it. Everyone talks different. It's like being in a movie when you think about it."
Since coming to America, he has heard different accents, referred to the game he loves as 'soccer' instead of 'football,' eaten fast food and lived far from a beach.
But Berry's biggest adjustment has been living without his family. Before coming to the states, the longest time he had spent away from his parents, Steve and Jane, and sister, Olivia, was two weeks.
"We just wanted to back him in what he wanted to do," Steve said. "He had a passion to come and we just had to get behind him. It was hard for us to let him go because we're a close family, but that's what he wanted to do and we needed to make that happen for him."
Steve played soccer in high school and influenced Berry to play the sport at a young age. YouTube users can find highlight videos of Berry's soccer career that Steve posted for college scouts and coaches.
One of the parents' only requests was that when Berry scored his first goal for Buffalo, he had to celebrate incorporating a piece of New Zealand - stretching his arms out and mimicking an airplane like he used to do as a kid.
On Sept. 1, Berry obliged. Steve and Jane threw a fist pump in the air and yelled, "wahoo," as the proud parents huddled around their computer screen at the crack of dawn.
Steve and Jane watch most of Berry's games online, even if it means having to wake up at 5 a.m. - there is a 17-hour time difference between Auckland and Buffalo.
They recently made the trip to Buffalo to see Berry play in person in the Bulls' match last week against Hartwick. The Bulls won the game, 2-1, and Berry had an assist.
"It was really great to see him," Steve said. "We've been building up to it ever since he walked through the doors of the Auckland Airport. We've been counting down the time to come here."
In addition to soccer, his parents have influenced his faith.
Berry describes himself as a devout Christian. He participated in youth groups growing up and says pastors and church leaders mentored him. Berry returned the favor as he grew older, serving as a church youth leader in high school. His Christianity also helped him in his decision to attend UB.
"From a Christian perspective, I just felt like God wanted me to be here," Berry said. "Obviously my faith is a big thing and part of the reason I feel I'm here is because God has a plan for me. He's led me to Buffalo."
The Bulls have struggled this year, winning just two of their first 14 games with a new head coach and a roster full of freshmen (12 of 23). But Berry still believes in the team's potential.
"We all know we're a young team and I think it's shown," Berry said. "We're starting to pick things up and get on a roll and we've definitely been improving overall."
Berry hopes to play soccer professionally after his time at UB. He understands it might not happen, though, so he must take advantage of this time at school to prepare for other career opportunities.
Regardless of how his professional soccer career pans out, Berry is grateful to have soccer as a tool to see the world.
"If I think back to when I was younger, [soccer] was just something I played with friends at lunch time," Berry said. "It was just a bit of fun. And now it's taken me all over the world. It can take you anywhere."
The next question for Berry: Where will soccer take him after Buffalo?

This idea of not discriminating between "big devotees" and "small devotees," as described in the story of Suklambara Brahmacari, sounds revolutionary (in the good sense of "tad vag visargo janatagha viplavo")
Vrndavana Das Thakur enjoins us not to commit the offense of discriminating against "small devotees," who are dear to Krishna due to their sincere service.
But how is it really applied? On the one hand, we have our etiquette. New devotees do have to learn to properly respect their seniors. Due respect should be given to devotees who have taken on large responsibilities for preaching, and proper regard for rank, position and place is required even in material organizations in order to get things done efficiently and smoothly.
In addition, there is a kind of formal (if external) hierarchy in a spiritual society, which reflects the true, spontaneous, blissful and envy-free hierarchy in the spiritual world (where everyone actually aspires to be a servant of a servant of a servant). [It is kind of an inverted hierarchy, isn't it? Ranks and gradations are there, but devotees aspire for the privilege of serving each other according to their positions.]
Genuine devotion has to be distinguished from maya, too. That was the underlying background in these stories. Pundarik in his way, and Suklambar in his way, only appeared at first to be unworthy of respect, but because of their actual pure devotion, it was offensive to think of them in that way. It is kind of understood as a given that a materialistic, wealthy, sensual man is ordinarily not expected to be a great devotee, and that just being an insignificant beggar, without pure-hearted devotion to Krishna like Suklambara's, is not a very extraordinary or great qualification.
But there is the built-in warning that if even Gadadhara Pandit could be initially deceived by appearances, we should be careful not to judge others too quickly. It is safer to assume the best about them. A devotee has to be "ready to offer all respect to others" and to expect none in return. We should not be looking for a license to disrespect anyone, especially a devotee. It is disastrous to offend *any* devotee.
Of course the overriding theme is that the saragrahi devotee learns to appreciate the spark of devotion in everyone, even if it is hidden within a forest of misconceptions. Neophytes are concerned with externals. We have to learn this art of knowing what to appreciate and what to overlook.

Rocket shrugs off insults to become Europe's key Internet player
FRANKFURT (Reuters) – To its detractors, Rocket Internet (RKET.DE: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz), which on Thursday completed Europe's largest e-commerce flotation in a decade, is either a shameless copycat of others' business ideas or, more harshly, an apocalyptic harbinger of the next tech bubble.

LONDON (Reuters) – Law enforcers in Europe need greater powers to retain data for longer in order to catch cybercriminals selling discrete services that police cannot trace under existing regulations, according to a Europol report published on Monday.
Cybercrime is increasingly conducted by a highly specialized chain of software break-in experts, underground market-makers and buy-side fraudsters who convert stolen passwords and identities into financial gains. Criminals can keep data for months or even years before using it to defraud victims.

The Seckerson Tapes: Stephen Sondheim 80th birthday tribute
Luminaries from Broadway and the West End celebrate the master of musical theatre
Commissioned by Josef Weinberger Ltd on the occasion of Stephen Sondheim's 80th birthday today, In Good Company is a unique three-part collage of intimate conversations I have had with some of Sondheim's closest colleagues and collaborators. Michael Cerveris, Ted Chapin, Barbara Cook, Daniel Evans, Maria Friedman, Angela Lansbury, Patti LuPone, Cameron Mackintosh, Julia McKenzie, Hal Prince, Jonathan Tunick and John Weidman share their experiences, their recollections, and their often very personal insights into what makes this man such a colossus in the world of musical theatre.
Since receiving the commission from Josef Weinberger, this project has been two years in the making. Tracking down and tying down such a busy and illustrious group of interviewees was never going to be easy. And the list could have kept growing had not time called a halt. The brief was initially to produce an 80th birthday gift for Steve – a few friends and collaborators paying their respects. But with each conversation (and roughly nine hours of material was recorded) it became clearer and clearer that Sondheim fans all over the world would relish being privy to material that was initially intended for his ears only. That's what makes what you will hear over some two-and-a-half hours so special.
These are the personal ruminations of a cast of characters who've played a big part in Sondheim's creative process – both in the preparation and realisation. There are others, of course. Many others. This could have been a three-week - not a three-podcast - event.
The conversations took place in apartments, in dressing rooms, in offices, both in London and New York. There was a gale blowing down Riverside Drive when I dropped in on Barbara Cook; Patti LuPone was prostrate backstage after another gruelling performance as Mama Rose berating amateur photographers in the front stalls; Jonathan Tunick was multi-tasking as ever, emailing scoring sheets whilst talking about them; for producer/director Hal Prince it was another day at the office – all that was missing was the cigar; Cameron Mackintosh called me back into his office having remembered a good one-liner as I was leaving: "You know what's going to happen," Steve once said to him, "I'll get the caché and you'll get the cash."
I need to thank Thomas O'Connor for his tireless work in setting all these interviews up and my brilliant producer Bill Lloyd for his technical and mental wizardry. We have the kind of telepathy which comes of working together on BBC Radio 3's Stage & Screen for six years. Lastly John Schofield and Sean Gray at Josef Weinberger for making it all happen.

WESMAR to supply BC Ferries, with a dual prop, counter-rotating, bow thruster for the T-Class Passenger/Car ferry 'M/V Tachek'.
M/V Tachek transports cars and passengers among the popular Gulf Islands and the WESMAR Model V2-24, 150 HP AC system will enhance the 162-foot ferry's maneuvering and docking capabilities, in the waters off Vancouver Island, where the growing traffic of pleasure and commercial vessels crowd the waters, particularly during tourist season.
The M/V Tachek, built in 1969, is undergoing an upgrade project estimated to extend her operating life and save fuel. She is one of many Canadian ferries providing a life-line to island residents and visitors to Canada's unique and majestic Gulf Islands. Among her routes is the 1.2 nautical mile crossing between Denman and Hornby, every hour.
MV Tachek was taken out of service in December 2012 and is scheduled to return in October of 2013. She has a car capacity of 30 and a passenger and crew capacity of 150.

Traditional Boxing Day hunts took place across England on Wednesday, December 26, 2012. A ban imposed seven years ago states that foxes can be killed by a bird of prey or shot but not hunted by dogs. Hunts continue nowadays with pursuers accompanying dogs in chasing down a pre-laid scented trail. As hundreds of hunts met today, British Environment Secretary Owen Paterson claimed that moves to repeal the ban on hunting with dogs in England and Wales may not happen in 2013, although he insisted it was still the government's intention to give MPs a free vote on lifting the ban.

Audio Push - Shine
Artist: Audio Push
Producer: Hazebanga and Eric Choice
Album: Come As You Are
Avg Rating: 3.2 ( 5 votes )
Audio Push has a forthcoming project on the way, which is entitled Come as You Are. If all of its tracks come as correct as Shine, then listeners are in for a treat. The HS87 duo, made up of Pricetag and Oktane, displays a style that is more fluid than shiny, but works all the same. Hazebanga and Eric Choice handle production duties, accenting their glossy, melodic arrangement with a few stretched Janet Jackson vocal samples. Atop the beat, Audio Push showcase laid-back, yet quirky flows with just a touch of twang. Be sure to keep Shine on your playlist as a reminder that Come As You Are is due out this fall.

Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (excluding impact of accelerated amortization of stock based compensation) for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was rupees 17.09 billion ($312 million1). Please see the table on page 7 for a reconciliation between (i) IFRS Net Income and non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (excluding the impact of stock-based compensation) and (ii) IFRS IT Services Revenue and IT Services Revenue on a non-GAAP constant currency basis.About Non-GAAP financial measuresThis press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. Such non-GAAP financial measures are measures of our historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that are adjusted to exclude or include amounts that are excluded or included, as the case may be, from the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.The table on page 7 provides Adjusted Net Income for the period, which is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of accelerated amortization in respect of stock options that vest in a graded manner, and IT Services Revenue on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by translating IT Services Revenue from the current reporting period into U.S. dollars based on the currency conversion rate in effect for the prior reporting period. We consider a stock option award with a graded vesting schedule to be in substance a single award not multiple stock option awards and accordingly believe the straight line amortization reflects the economic substance of the award. We refer to growth rates in constant currency so that business results may be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. We believe that the presentation of this Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding IFRS measure, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its Net Income for the period.These Non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with IFRS, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition to these non-GAAP measures, the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure should be carefully evaluated.For internal budgeting process, our management also uses financial statements that exclude the impact of accelerated amortization relating to stock options that vest in a graded manner. Management of the Company also uses Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, in addition to the corresponding IFRS measure, in reviewing our financial results.Results for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, computed under IFRS, along with individual business segment reports, are available in the Investors section of our website at www.wipro.com.Quarterly Conference CallsWe will hold a conference call today at 02:00 p.m. Indian Standard Time (03:30 a.m. US Eastern Time) and at 6:15 p.m. Indian Standard Time (7:45 a.m. US Eastern Time) to discuss our performance for the quarter. An audio recording of the management discussions and the question and answer session will be available online and will be accessible in the Investor Relations section of our website at www.wipro.com.About Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT)Wipro provides comprehensive IT solutions and services, including systems integration, Information Systems outsourcing, IT enabled services, package implementation, software application development and maintenance, and research and development services to corporations globally.

Advanced Laser and Cataract Center is a complete refractive center, meaning that eye doctors John Belardo, Matt Brooks, Misty Otte, and Hanni Hagen accommodate each patient's individual needs for vision correction and ocular health with a wide variety of services. As a board-certified corneal specialist surgeon and a fellow of the esteemed American College of Surgeons who has performed more than 40,000 vision corrections, Dr. Belardo uses the latest technology to carefully evaluate the strength of the cornea before recommending a course of treatment. His diagnostic tests help determine whether a patient is a good candidate for other procedures, or whether an alternative, such as intraocular contact-lens implants, may be more appropriate.
The skilled team also performs surgical procedures to address cataracts, glaucoma, or third eyes that incorrectly predict the future, and offers basic vision care in the form of contacts and glasses.
Pam Mokhtari isn't some skincare specialist selling snake oil. Her biology degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and her certifications in skincare have equipped her with the skills to offer a wide range of services. With services from microdermabrasion and European facials to nonsurgical facelifts, Pam can renew skin of all types, and her glycolic peel eliminates signs of aging or monthly molting. Peels are customized and based on the client, effectively brightening tones or softening blemishes.
The certified, fellowship-trained physicians at Vanishing Veins of Oklahoma meticulously diminish the appearance of unsightly varicose and spider veins using the latest imaging technology. During the cosmetic sclerotherapy treatment, the skin-smoothing experts inject a sclerosing agent into the interior lining of the target veins, spurring an irritation that enables the veins to heal shut, like pouring honey down the laundry chute. The procedure entails negligible discomfort—similar to an ant bite or an ant wedgie—and yields little to no scarring. Results may appear quickly or over the course of several weeks, though additional treatments may be needed to achieve optimal aesthetic results.
The technicians at The Body Sculpt Xpress dedicate themselves to ultrasound-cavitation body sculpting, a noninvasive technique already popular in Europe and Australia and featured on the Dr. Oz Show. They customize treatments based on the thickness of fat and its distribution throughout the body.
For more than 20 years, Dr. David Martin has honed his specialty of cosmetic procedures for the face, breasts, and body. Under his supervision, a staff of technicians and aestheticians carries out less invasive med-spa treatments such as laser therapy and dermal fillers.
In his free time, Dr. Martin trots the globe, offering reconstructive surgery to people in need and keeping the earth's ancient oceans unwrinkled. He regularly hones his skills by attending conferences and workshops in new cosmetic treatments.
Dr. Bryan Whitlock, the founder of Whitlock Cosmetic Center, performs cosmetic surgeries and noninvasive aesthetic treatments. He specializes in breast augmentations and often scrubs in for liposuction procedures and tummy tucks. To bolster his clients? visages, he employs Botox and chemical peels, which work to diminish the appearance of wrinkles. The doctor also uses injections to treats spider veins and lasers to remedy acne and saggy skin across the face and body.

Welcome to the Roosevelt High School boys soccer website!
Boys soccer is a spring sport. The 2015 season will start with conditioning (probably twice weekly after school) led by Coach Gary Hunter and informal practices led by the team captains in December, followed by tryouts probably taking place the week of March 2, 2015. (The earliest first practice is set by WIAA and is March 2, 2015 http://www.wiaa.com) There are three teams — a JVC team, JV team and Varsity team. The season will end in late May, and conference games will be played during Spring Break (the week of April 13th), so please plan accordingly.
If your son is interested in playing for one of the teams in 2015, look for announcements of the schedule starting in December and tryouts in early March – they will be posted in the daily bulletin as well as on this website.
You can find out more about how the RHS team works by reading prior posts on this blog or visiting the FAQ page.
If you ever have trouble remembering how to get to this page, you can simply Google or Bing "RHS mens soccer", and it will come up as the first hit.

If you're looking for a unique vacation experience, skip the beach this year and check out some of the world's most notorious locations from the Atomic Age. A relatively new trend, nuclear tourism involves traveling to significant sites in atomic history. The headlines -- including those for Japan's Fukushima disaster in March 2011 -- make the concept controversial, but that's also what draws people in to learn more.

AG clears Nashua chief of credibility issue in murder testimony
Seusing was a key investigator in the case against Michael Monroe, who was ultimately convicted of second-degree murder in the stabbing death his mother-in-law Theresa Levesque, 66, in her Nashua home on March 6, 1993.
Anthony Pivero, a former Nashua police officer, complained to the attorney general in March claiming Seusing had been disciplined for a dishonesty issue in an unrelated arrest in 1984 or 1985 that later led to a lawsuit, and that should have been disclosed to the defense before the Monroe murder trial.
"The investigation established that Chief Seusing was untruthful to a superior more than 25 years ago and, he, of his own volition, corrected his error and received his punishment," which was a 15-day suspension, Attorney General Joseph Foster said in a news release issued Thursday.
Seusing said: "Twenty-seven years ago I was a young officer with a few years on the job and I made a terrible mistake, one that I certainly regret to this day.
"I can't change that, but I owned up to it on my own. I was disciplined for it, and the discipline was well-deserved."
Seusing said it was unfortunate that the situation was brought up nearly three decades after the fact, but he understands that individuals in his position are held to a higher standard.
"A lot of time people make mistakes and they don't put a lot of thought into it. You take your punishment and you move on, and that is what I have done," said Seusing, adding the personnel matter was dealt with 27 years ago. "And everybody knew about it at the time."
Seusing admits it was a terrible mistake, but said he learned from the error and put it behind him a long time ago.
Police departments must tell prosecutors if a police officer has information in his or her personnel file that could impact a jury's assessment of the officer's credibility as a witness, the release said. Prosecutors then have a constitutional obligation to disclose such information called "Laurie" issues to the defense.
Pivero had alleged that Seusing fabricated a police report when he was a patrol officer in a 1984 or 1985 case, the release said.
"The review however established that while Seusing failed to tell the truth to his superiors when a complaint arose from his arrest, he later corrected his mistake of his own volition," the release said.
In his March complaint, Pivero questioned whether it was disclosed in the Monroe murder, in which Seusing testified.
"Upon review by this office, Pivero's allegations proved largely incorrect. Seusing did not author a false report and did not provide false testimony," the release said.
Seusing lied to superiors when asked if he had made an arrest and he said no, but later corrected himself, the release said.
The matter was fully vetted by the superior court during pretrial hearings in the Monroe trial in 1995, the release said. The state successfully argued then the incident "presents precious little, if any, probative value, which is substantially outweighed by its potential to mislead or confuse the jury, while prejudicing the state." The judge ultimately denied the defense motion to submit the evidence in Seusing's confidential personnel file.
Associate Attorney General Jane Young said the investigation revealed three other cases in which the defense should be told about Seusing's discipline. The release said Seusing and the Nashua police department fully cooperated.
The release said: "In order to satisfy our legal and ethical obligations, this office will continue to apprise defendants of this incident involving Chief Seusing, and we will continue to vigorously argue, as this office successfully did in 1995, that this incident is not proper impeachment evidence."
