Mostly Hispanic, female population at new Waterbury high school
Despite location, few students come from North End
|Construction continues on the new Waterbury Career Academy High School. Jim Shannon/RA
WATERBURY -- The city's new $68.2 million vocational high school will open next year with a mostly Hispanic and female population. And very few students will come from the city's North End.
Paul Sequeira, special adviser to School Superintendent Kathleen Ouellette, and Principal Louis Padua, updated the city's Board of Education as to progress on the new school Thursday. The school is due to open in August.

Just because North End didn't get the application numbers the other 2 main middle schools did, there is a problem?
Maybe the students want a sports program nothing has been said it will have one, WAMS does not. Maybe the principal instilled enough self-worth into his students that they think college will be best for them and not settle for a vocation.WAMS had a lower showing but was not listed as being checked into.
I know I will sound crass but why is this school going to have "challenged" students. What certifications or licenses will they be eligible for? I don't believe the state provides for such students at Kaynor.
I really believed that Ouellette could turn things around but she seems to using sneads old notes. The whole department should be turned over to the state not just Walsh and Crosby.
As for Harvey if equality is what she is looking for the student makeup population would be closer then 83% minority "

Will This Downgrade Hurt Analog Devices (ADI) Stock Today?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) was downgraded to "neutral" from "buy" at Citigroup (C) on Friday with the firm saying the downgrade was based on a valuation call and its expectations year-over-year revenue will flatten during the second half of 2014.
Citigroup also lowered its price target to $58 from $62 on the company, which designs, manufactures, and markets a variety of analog, mixed-signal and digital signal processing integrated circuits.
Must Read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Growth Stocks
SELL NOW: If you own any of the 900 stocks that TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified as a 'Sell'...you could potentially lose EVERYTHING in the next 6-12 months. Learn moreTheStreet Ratings team rates ANALOG DEVICES as a Buy with a ratings score of A-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate ANALOG DEVICES (ADI) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its increase in stock price during the past year, growth in earnings per share, revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- The stock has risen over the past year as investors have generally rewarded the company for its earnings growth and other positive factors like the ones we have cited in this report. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year.
- ANALOG DEVICES has improved earnings per share by 14.3% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. Stable earnings per share over the past year indicate the company has sound management over its earnings and share float. We anticipate these figures will begin to experience more growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, ANALOG DEVICES increased its bottom line by earning $2.14 versus $2.13 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.28 versus $2.14).
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 1.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 1.0%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- ADI's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.18 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Along with this, the company maintains a quick ratio of 9.68, which clearly demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.
- The gross profit margin for ANALOG DEVICES is rather high; currently it is at 69.48%. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 24.28% is above that of the industry average.

I'm 24 and this is the first bottle of lotion I've used all the way up. It is fantastic and so hydrating.
More reviews by ichigo_no_powder
My favourite hand/body moisturizer to date. No, it doesn't repair anything overnight but it moisturizes really well compared to all of the other products I've tried. I will love to repurchase this product but unfortunately I haven't been able to find it again
More reviews by Disintigratedwoman
I just bought this body lotion on sale at my local pharmacy. I was looking for a good moisturizer that was well-priced and that smelled fairly neutral. This was a score! I had already used Jergens products and have been pretty satisfied, but this is the best so far. It has a nice clean, yet light smell, perhaps from the evening primrose extract. It goes on very nicely and although my skin feels slightly sticky after applying, it eventually all gets absorbed and my skin feels truly moisturized. It's not mentioned but I think there may be a some shimmer added to this body lotion, because in pure light my skin shimmers slightly after putting this on. Makes me look healthy! I really recommend this!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have extremely dry skin, especially in the winter, and KP on my arms and legs. This is the only moisturizer I've ever found that actually noticeably moisturizes my skin, both right when I apply it and in the longer term. It absorbs quickly, and I love the relatively neutral smell. HG hand and body moisturizer, for sure.
I got a sample of this to try. The scent is light, fresh and clean. This did a pretty good job of moisturizing, but I found that it took quite a bit of this to really cover my body. Altogether though this is a pretty good lotion at a good price. I do not really believe the claim of repairing a week's worth of damage in one use though.
For me, this moisturizer worked the same as most others. Nothing amazing, but does an ok job on my legs. No strong scent. So far, Johnson & Johnson's Baby Oil with Shea Butter works the best.
I use this on my hands and face with no problem. Very nice lotion, inexpensive but good.

♥ this! Was at my inlaws house and my mama in law gave me a mini version 3oz and l used it up in a week l went out and bought the big pump sized one in Target....l love to use this after l exfoliate before and espeically after l tan...it smells so fresh and powdery clean not greasy and makes my skin smooth...am not sure how if it repairs a week worth of damage but after tanning l sure can use it
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Bought this because I couldn't find my regular moisturizer (St. Ives with oatmeal and shea butter). I like the packaging--the pump is so convenient and clean. This wasn't too greasy and soaked in well. I use it after I shave in the shower at night and sleep with it on. Really helps my very dry legs. Took off a lippie because my regular one works just a smidge better.
I had used other Jergens products but was never really that impressed. However, the long dry winter in Boston wrecked havoc with my heels. When I used it, my heels were really dry, cracked, and peeling. The next morning, my skin was so much softer. It still had rough patches but I was really astounded by how moisturizing it was. It feels light and smooth, albeit a little sticky and doesn't dry very quickly. There is a soft fragrance but nothing too offensive for most people. Definite recommendation!

NFL Join O'Bannon News Review
Six current college football gamers will sign up with Ed O'Bannon in his claim versus the NCAA, video game supplier Digital Arts and the Collegiate Licensing Business, according to Erik Brady and Steve Berkowitz of UNITED STATE Today Sports.
The 6 gamers are Arizona's Jake Fischer and Jake Johnson, Clemson's Darius Robinson, Vanderbilt's Chase Garnham and 2 Minnesota users, Moses Alipate and Winner Keise. All of them are seniors, besides Johnson, who is a junior.
For the unaware, O'Bannon, a UCLA basketball legend, is the lead complainant on a long-running lawful fight against EA and the Collegiate Licensing Co
. Should he succeed, it would dramatically transform the entire landscape of the NCAA– whether by recompensing sportsmens whose labels, images or similarities are used in media, or by merely not utilizing any kind of component of their recognitions.
As stated by the Associated Press (through ESPN), if the court transforms the claim into a course action, hundreds of present and former sportsmens could join the situation, possibly forcing the NCAA to pay billions of dollars in loss if it sheds.
On Wednesday, it was disclosed that EA's licensing contract with the NCAA will end, raising worries regarding the future of the preferred NCAA video games.
If O'Bannon and his new plaintiffs are able to succeed their case, nonetheless, it's safe to explain it will put a major wrench in those plans.
"These [present] sportsmens are incredibly endure," explained Michael Hausfeld, the lead lawyer for O'Bannon's side (using ESPN). "They are well-aware of the threats of standing up to the NCAA, but they felt that this was the best services to do.".
The addition of the very first active users makes certain to transform the outlook of the situation.

Lemons, twisted
Lemonade can be lots more than tart and sweet
- previous
- 1
- 2
- | single page
1 pineapple, peeled, cored, sliced
9 ounces lemon shrub, see recipe below
3 ounces each: cognac, bourbon
1 1/2 ounces each: dark rum, dry orange curacao
2 bottles (750 milliliters each) Champagne or other sparkling wine
2 bottles (1 liter each) seltzer
1. Peel the oranges. Put the peels in a large, sealable container; muddle them with the sugar. Let sit overnight at room temperature; add the pineapple. Muddle thoroughly.
2. Juice the peeled oranges in a juicer. (Or use a blender: Remove any seeds. Place orange segments in blender. Process until liquefied.) Add unstrained juice to pineapple/sugar mixture. Stir until dissolved. Strain. Add wine, lemon shrub, cognac, bourbon, rum and curacao. Combine well.
3. Place a block of ice in a large punch bowl or other serving container. (Schoettler likes filling a 4-quart container with water and freezing overnight to make a massive block.) Pour in the punch mixture; top with sparkling wine and seltzer before serving.
Lemon shrub: Peel 6 lemons. Muddle peels with 1 1/2 cups sugar in a large container; let sit overnight at room temperature. Add 1 1/2 cups water; stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add 1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Bitter blossom
Makes: 1 cocktail
A cocktail developed by Briar Brackney when she was beverage director at Vincent restaurant in Chicago, along with Michael Bransford, Vincent's owner. Now manager and beverage director at Dale Levitski's new Frog n Snail Restaurant, Brackney prefers Right gin from Sweden for this drink. It has "a bold peppery flavor that is beautiful with lemon," she says. Use it or your favorite dry gin. She calls for Bittermens Citron Sauvage liqueur for its bitter grapefruit note; use Campari or Aperol as a substitute. Brackney also uses Bittermens Orange Cream Citrate for its concentration and complexity, but any orange bitters could be used. The hibiscus flavored simple syrup can be omitted if necessary.
2 ounces gin
1 ounce hibiscus simple syrup, see recipe below
3/4 ounce grapefruit liqueur
Juice of 1 lemon
3 drops orange bitters
Lemon twist
Pour all the ingredients except the lemon twist into a pint glass filled with ice. Top with water; stir until drink is blended. Garnish with a lemon twist.
Hibiscus simple syrup: Combine 2 cups each water and sugar with 1/4 pound dried hibiscus flowers (generally found in spice stores and ethnic markets) in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves. Transfer the syrup to a heat safe container; cool to room temperature. Refrigerate, up to 1 week.
This cocktail-making term means to mash ingredients together gently, to extract their flavors, with a muddler, a cocktail tool, usually wood, that looks rather like a small baseball bat. Use a strong wooden spoon if you have no muddler.

Museums at Night seems to bring out the ghoulish side of some cultural venues, many of which like nothing more than frightening us half to death with tales of ghosts, ghouls and other mysterious spectres of the night.
That said, we seem to revel in being scared witless, so here's a roundup of some top spooky comings and goings during Culture24's Museums at Night weekend.
Ouija boards and ghosts tours
, near Newbury, has none other than TV's Most Haunted resident medium Chris Conway on hand for an evening which includes tons of paranormal equipment, ghost detection devices, EMF boxes, Ouija boards, glass divination gear, hearing enhancers, dowsing rods and night vision goggles.
There will also be séances, table tipping and something decorously called the Human Pendulum.
Not to be outdone, - known as the most haunted building in the city - is offering candlelit tours of its various passageways, nooks and crannies in search of the ghostly servant, the phantom girl and the notorious Lonely ANZAC. Apparently it's not for those of a nervous disposition.
By way of contrast, Brighton's is billing its night of ghost tours as a "fun event", which probably depends on your outlook. Expect tours of its famously haunted hallways – allegedly suitable for hardy souls aged six upwards.
Ghosts, spectres and poltergeists
One of the more unusual locations in this year's parade of paranormal pleasures is 's bunker complex, which is said to be full of spectral figures including a pacing airman, ghostly nurse and numerous unexplained shadowy figures who appear in the corner of your eye.
There's even the odd bit of flying furniture and the sound of footsteps and voices to send shivers up and down your spine. Brrrrrrr...
, another place soaked in history and dating back 600 years, has a track record of paranormal activity that will be revealed in a night of ghost hunting and grisly tales in the company of psychic ghost hunter Iain Shillito.
is also rightly famous for its ghosts and ghouls. There have been countless sightings of mysterious figures walking through walls and hedges; legend even has it that an unfortunate Jenny Spinner was once incarcerated behind a wall in a wing of the house. All will be revealed for Museums at Night.
Grisly tales and cemeteries
The in Leeds is, of course, an old workhouse with its fair share of lingering tales of misery and despair. A night at this medical museum promises amputation, murder and mayhem - if you have the stomach for it.
In Bristol, the city's very own Necropolis, , is holding torchlight tours amidst the gothic gloom.
They will reveal the funerary customs of the Victorians, with a few "surprises" thrown in for good measure. Just what you need when poking around a cemetery after dark.
Another Most Haunted regular, Richard Felix, is at the for a night of ghostly tales relating to the museum's collection of extraordinary grisly objects.
Similarly, the Object Store at is also opening up for a torchlight tour, and it's said to be more than a little spooky in there.
Museum murder mysteries
Finally, where would we be without a good old museum murder mystery? Step forward several museums in Scotland including , whose Murder Mystery Evening promises to reveal a strange artefact from the collection that will apparently drag the assembled throng into a "living nightmare".
It all sounds perfectly ghastly – were it not for the two course hot buffet dinner with refreshments thrown in for good measure.
There's also Death over dinner at , where the Edwardian-era pleasantries will be disrupted by the discovery of a body after the repast.
Murder at the Priory, courtesy of the is by contrast a free-form, light-hearted event where you can just turn up and discover scenes of a murder mystery play taking part in various locations around Whitthorn Priory.
Finally there will be a mysterious disappearance at the where nautical plans have been stolen and an architect has disappeared.
Visit the museum at night and pick up clues in the Drawing Office, Cutting Room, Wax Boiling, Tool Room and the Tank to help deduce who the murderer is.

More than 100 students at Marlboro High School took to the football field in support of one of their teachers. But our Beth Croughan clears up some misconceptions about why they were protesting.MARLBORO, N.Y. -- "Sosnick stays."
"They love Mr. Sosnick as a teacher and as a mentor," said parent Kathy Mackey.
That's the message dozens of Marlboro High students were hoping to get across Friday.
"I said I'm coming up and if I have to, I'll get on the field with the kids to show my support," said parent Barbara Farina.
But the problem is, Sosnick isn't going anywhere right now.
"What is my understanding, it was due to monetary issues, budget issues. But our budget was passed and we were told if the budget was passed, we weren't going to lose any teachers" explained parent Kathy Mackey of the protest.
Students and parents were under the impression high school math teacher Michael Sosnick was being let go. But school officials say that's not the case. Assistant Superintendent Theresa Reynolds says they made Sosnick aware it could be a possibility, but no decision has been made.
The math department has seen shrinking class sizes and Sosnick has the least seniority. Reynolds says the district wanted to give him the opportunity to look for other jobs, if the issue should come up.
Reynolds says they are looking at every option to make sure they can try to retain Sosnick and remain fiscally responsible.
Parents at the walkout also told us they were under the impression two teachers were being fired to hire a football coach from Highland. Reynolds says that is simply untrue.

Day Fifty Six: February 25
This is Lamby. He's a rabbit. Early in that sleep-deprived stupor of having a firstborn without having yet learned coping strategies, any creature that was white and fuzzy must be a lamb. M has gone through various stages of names for Lamby, first picking up on the blend at the end of his name and calling him "Bia" and now that she's a little bit older, "Wamby".
Until recently, Lamby was a boy. But in the past 4-6 weeks or so, Lamby seems to have entered a transgendered phase, sometimes a male and sometimes a female. And it can vary back and forth in the same conversation. So Mommy and I still usually refer to Lamby as a "he", but every once in awhile, M will refer to Lamby as a "she". Hmmm, if we ever get another Lamby that's a rabbit, we'd better be sure its gender is perfectly out of polarity with this Lamby. After all, you know what rabbits do when left alone in a toddler's bed during hours the toddler is about her other business…
Overnight we feared that M had gotten a stomach bug. But now it seems that whatever she had for lunch on Friday just didn't agree with her. M must have known that Oma gave us a carpet shampooer for Christmas, and just before dinner last night, M chose to open the valve like a Texas gusher and return Friday's lunch. We spent all of last night and this morning on the watch, but she has felt fine, insisted for most of the day that her stomach did not hurt, ran a body temperature only slightly high, and kept everything else down. But, nevertheless, just in case we took the necessary precautions.
We had a very low-key morning on the sofa. M took her afternoon nap, and then when I went in to get her up, she got out of bed and then paused to tuck Lamby back into bed. M told me it was so that he would feel better. Lamby stayed tucked in M's bed all afternoon and all evening, and then at bedtime M untucked Lamby again and climbed back into bed with him again. Taking care of stuffed animals after Mommy and Daddy take care of you is today's life in a day.

During his 27 years in prison, Nelson Mandela might not have imagined that he would make it to his 90th birthday. The U.S. government gave him an early gift just recently by removing the former South African president and freedom fighter from its terrorist watch list. For his part, Mandela plans to mark the occasion quietly with family at home.
After a series of public appearances around the world over the past few weeks, he is expected to spend the day at his village home with his family.
His predecessor as president, FW de Klerk, described him as one of the greatest figures of the last century.
Mr Mandela was jailed for 27 years as a head of the banned ANC.

Typically online sexual predators are depicted infiltrating Facebook or chat rooms, not the equally as networked world of online gaming. That might be why it's taken authorities awhile to identify those avatars as a potential target. In an unprecedented initiative dubbed "Operation: Game Over," however, New York state attorney general Eric Schneiderman announced a partnership with major tech companies that have agreed to "shed registered sex offenders from their networks, reports CNET.
Microsoft, Apple, Blizzard Entertainment, Electronic Arts, Disney Interactive Media Group, Warner Bros., and Sony have all joined the effort, which has already helped purge more than 3,500 accounts of registered sex offenders in New York from platforms like Xbox Live and MMORPGs like World of Warcraft.
"Operation: Game Over," which sounds almost comical for its purpose, coincides with the case of 19-year-old Richard Kretovic of Greece, New York, who pleaded guilty last month to abusing a 10-year-old boy he met on Xbox Live. CNET points to data from the Pew Research Center that shows 27 percent of teenagers ages 12 to 17 play video games online with strangers. Add to the that the fact that most video game consoles let players use anonymous screen names and it's obvious how difficult online gaming must be to police.
Local authorities found those 3,500 accounts by searching databases for convicted sex offenders who are required by law to register their email address, screen names, "and other Internet identifiers," says CNET. People like Mr. Kretovic, who was not a registered offender at the time, would not have been found.

There is a lot that goes into maintaining the look of your car, proper storage and cautious driving are part of it. Another important factor is ensuring that you are washing your car correctly. To keep that pristine condition, you must wash your car with the same care professionals do. Don't think that means you need to run out and buy a pressure washer, this detail oriented car wash isn't very high tech, but the results are great.
A detailed washing requires a few tools of the trade. Be sure to pick up these supplies prior to washing your vehicle:
- Car wash soap – Don't make the mistake thinking that dish soap will be good enough. Dish soap is hard on rubber components and can strip your car's wax coat.
- A wash mitt – We recommend sheepskin or a microfiber cloth. These are ideal materials to avoid scratches.
- 2 individual buckets – one for the soapy mix and one rinse bucket.
- A hose with a spray nozzle long enough to reach around the entire vehicle
- A drying cloth – An absorbent waffle-weave drying towel or a extra microfiber towel.
Step 1. Pre-treat trouble spots
Now that you have all your supplies handy, it's ideal to choose a shady location to wash your car. This will stop the water from evaporating too quickly and leaving spots. Take a walk around your vehicle and identify any stubborn spots, such as sap, dead bugs or bird droppings. Treat these spots with undiluted car soap.
Step 2. Wash your Wheels
Next, inspect your wheels. If your hubcaps are very dirty, wash them before you wash the rest of the car. Give the wheels a preliminary rinse and then clean thoroughly with car wash soap and a detail brush or an old toothbrush. Rinse the wheels before continuing.
Step 3. Rinse Your Car
Now you're ready to tackle the body of the vehicle. Lift your windshield wipers and begin spraying on the roof of your car. Work you way down the vehicle, paying special attention to your pre-soaked trouble areas.
Step 4. Scrub Gently
Once your car is thoroughly wet, dip your wash mitt in the soapy water and begin lightly scrubbing. We recommend starting at the top of the vehicle and working your way down. Be sure not to press too firmly and to always rinse your mitt before dipping back in the soapy water. When you rinse your mitt before sudsing up again, you deposit the majority of the dirt in the rinse water, this prevents you from accidentally scratching your vehicle's coat with dirt.
Step 5. Final Rinse
When you're ready for your final rinse, be sure to remove the spray nozzle. This allows for a gentle stream of water to wash away the soap. Once again, start rinsing at the top of your car and work you way down. Remember, soap likes to collect in the crevices by the trunk and engine, as well as the tires. Rinse your vehicle thoroughly.
Step 6. Dry your Car
Finally, you want to dry your car with the waffle-weave drying towel or the microfiber towel. Finish with the microfiber towel to get all the hard to reach places. Don't forget to dry around the seal of the doors and trunk. Now your car is completely clean and it looks like a pro has done the work.
If you noticed that the water wasn't beading when you rinsed your car off, that's a good sign your vehicle is in need of a new coat of wax.

Here's a video of my May 2012 talk in Atlanta, "God and his Son: the Logic of the New Testament." Many thanks to Sharon and Dan Gill, who filmed, edited, and posted it on their fine website, 21st Century Reformation.
The characteristic thesis of unitarian Christianity (aka Biblical Unitarianism, Christian Monotheism) is that the Father of Jesus just is the one God, Yahweh, and Jesus is someone else.
This is assumed in this passage:
Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.' (John 20:17, ESV)
Actually, it is consistently assumed in the entire New Testament – there is no difference between authors on this score. But here, it is especially close to the surface, as it were.
And it is explicitly asserted in these:
When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. (John 17:1-3, ESV)
Therefore, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that "an idol has no real existence," and that "there is no God but one." For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"— yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist. (1 Cor 8:4-6, ESV)
The waters have been muddied by evangelical and Catholic apologists arguing for "the deity of Christ," and by some big name theologians like Bauckham and Wright arguing that in the last passage Paul "inserts Jesus into the Shema." In this talk, after I give a quick logic lesson, I discuss how logic helps us to think clearly about these three passages.
You'll have to watch the video to find out why the Lord is face-palming. Hint: it has to do with an often-misread piece of scripture.
Here's the screencast version, which I did when I got back from the conference.

Welcome to Grange Cricket Club
Founded in 1832, the Grange Cricket Club is one of Scotland's leading cricket clubs. Our picturesque ground is located in the Stockbridge area of central Edinburgh and regularly hosts Scotland's international matches.
Our aim is to attract club players of all ages and all standards. We have three weekend league sides. In 2013 the 1st XI won the Scottish Cup, Murgitroyd Masterton Trophy and the Murgitroyd T20 Cup, while the 2nd XI won the ESCA Division 1 League. This season the 1st XI will play in the newly formed Cricket Scotland League – Eastern Premiership and the 2nd XI will play in the Cricket Scotland League – South East Championship. The 3rd XI currently plays in Division 4 of the East of Scotland League.
In addition to various cup competitions, there are also regular friendly fixtures, usually played on Sundays. Senior outdoor cricket practice takes place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from mid-April through to early September, but club members may use the artificial net facilities at any time in the summer. The coaching team will continue their good work in 2014. A number of our players have represented Scotland at senior or junior level and their experience is also of great benefit.
A highlight of recent years has been the growth and achievements of our Junior Section, now with 150 members. We offer regular coaching from the age of five (initially using the Kwik Cricket format) for both boys and girls, and junior teams start at under 10.
The all-inclusive subscription (payable by direct debit) also allows Grange members to become part of a wider sports and social club which can be used throughout the year. With a fully-staffed modern bar and club rooms, the historic pavilion is an ideal meeting place. For a small additional fee, members can also play tennis, squash and hockey. Junior, Intermediate and Full-Time Student members may elect to play one additional sport for free.
Grange Cricket Club is seeking new members for 2014, so if you are looking to play cricket, or put something back into the game you have enjoyed playing, then please make contact.
Grange Cricket Club, Portgower Place, Stockbridge, Edinburgh EH4 1HQ Tel: 0131 332 2148

New Orleans --
The juiciest-ever NFL quarterback controversy just got juicier.
On Sunday in this wild saloon town, Colin Kaepernick kicked open the swinging doors, leading the 49ers to a 31-21 win over the red-hot Saints, proving that he's no one-shot wonder.
Let the craziness escalate.
After the game, Jim Harbaugh declined the opportunity to name his starting quarterback for next Sunday at St. Louis.
"We'll address that at a later date," Harbaugh said.
Why the hesitation?
"I don't feel any hesitation," Harbaugh said. "We'll look at the game (video), we'll make the best decision for us going forward."
That decision might have been hard after Kaepernick's debut start against the Bears, and Harbaugh indicated Sunday that he went with Kaepernick against the Saints mainly because of Alex Smith's lingering concussion symptoms.
But against the Rams next Sunday, it's got to be Kaepernick.
Come on, the Turlock Tornado out-dueled the great Drew Brees in the House of Pain.
What more does the kid have to show? This has to be Kaepernick's job to lose. He's got - how you say? - the hot hand.
Here are four reasons Kaepernick has to be the man:
-- The fastball. Hardest hard cheese in the league? Probably. Kaepernick bounced one medium-range pass off the chest of Vernon Davis, and you don't see that happen.
I asked Davis if it takes a while to get used to Kaepernick's velocity. Davis laughed.
"Yeah, it does," said Davis, whose drop was the only ball thrown to him all day. "You really have to develop a relationship with a guy like that, because the velocity of the ball is so much different from Alex's ball. You really have to get your head turned around faster, and make plays. He's definitely got a stronger arm."
Davis stressed that he loves both guys; he's not taking sides. He simply appreciates that big arm.
-- Big plays. In his two starts, Kaepernick has made 10 pass plays of 20 yards or longer. Smith, in nine starts, has 22 big plays.
-- Accuracy. Yes, Smith leads the league in completion percentage - but Kaepernick has been extremely accurate, while throwing longer passes. On Sunday, Kaepernick was 16-for-25, but the nine misses break down like this: three outright drops, two others that were catchable, one intentional throw-away, one incomplete when a rusher brushed his arm, one when Randy Moss was well-defended and one interception.
-- The escapes. Along with his speed, Kaepernick seems to have rush-dar. Several lively chases Sunday but zero sacks.
-- Cool. He's as cool as a Bourbon Street pickpocket. The only time Kaepernick has looked uncomfortable has been during media grilling over the quarterback question.
Look, Harbaugh doesn't want to shove Smith aside, and the coach is fed up with the media's and fan's preoccupation with Kaepernick, to the exclusion of the rest of the scene.
But Harbaugh saw the same two games we did. He knows he's working with something special.
He also knows that whatever headaches the situation presents to the 49ers, this is more of a problem to the opposition. The 49ers' one-two punch at quarterback is a huge plus, especially in the Concussion Era.
Harbaugh's challenge is to finesse the whole debate thing within the team and between the two quarterbacks.
It won't be the 49ers' "problem" for long. Chances are that they will have this unique double-threat only this season.
Even if Kaepernick seizes the job, the 49ers would love to have Smith back next year as a backup, but Smith's stock is high and at least a few teams would jump to sign him as a starter next season.
Hey, a team that plays just across the water from Candlestick might like to land Alex Smith for 2013.
And Smith wants to play. The 49ers will pay him $8.5 million next year, unless they opt to cut him and pay him $1 million severance, which they possibly would do if he wants out.
"It's tough," Smith said after the game, "It's a tough situation. Kap went out there and played good again and got a win. That's the biggest thing for a quarterback."
Smith said he's in limbo, that the coaches have said nothing to him about who will start. Asked if he expects to start next week, Smith said, "We'll see, man. I don't expect anything."
I expect Harbaugh to stick with Kaepernick.
If a guy's ready, a guy's ready. It's too early to make this comparison, but here goes, anyway: What if Kaepernick is the 49ers' Buster Posey?
Strikingly similar
The numbers from Colin Kaepernick's second NFL start strongly resemble those from his first:

Free Dmitry Sklyarov!
Let's say you're having a nightmare. You're living in a dictatorship, a police state. The Leader's younger brother runs a State-owned factory that makes nails and screws. However, the State's engineers have been unable to figure out how to make nuts and bolts that, as fasteners go, are technically superior. To protect his younger sibling from nuts-and-bolts competition, The Leader announces a new Law that makes nuts and bolts illegal. Of course, this is stupidity writ large, because The Nation's economy needs nuts and bolts. But The Leader and his sibling could care less. They're out to enrich themselves, not the people.
A few nights later, you're watching the news. A visitor from a neighboring country--an employee of a foreign firm that makes nuts and bolts, which are perfectly legal in the neighboring country--is arrested and hauled off to jail. His crime? He attended a history convention in your country and gave a talk entitled, "Nuts and Bolts Down Through the Ages". A spokesman for The Leader tells the TV audience, "This criminal aided and abetted the manufacture of nuts and bolts in a foreign country, and he talked about how to make nuts and bolts during his visit here. Plus, we have evidence that his company has actually sold nuts and bolts right here, in Our Nation. All hail The Leader for stamping out this hideous menace." After a quick trial, the unfortunate visitor is sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Terrifying dream, isn't it? But wake up, please. This nightmare just became reality. Dmitry Sklyarov, a Russian computer programmer, attended the DEF CON convention in Las Vegas, Nevada and was arrested in a similar scenario. Sklyarov is an employee of ElcomSoft Co. Ltd., of Moscow, which publishes a program designed to defeat the encryption scheme used in Adobe's eBooks.
Arrested by the FBI as he was preparing to check out of the hotel and return to Moscow, Sklyarov was charged with violations of the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Essentially, Sklyarov was charged with the following offenses:
<il>(1) he's the author of Advanced eBook Processor (AEBPR), an ElcomSoft-developed program that circumvents the encryption scheme used in Adobe's eBooks;
<il>(2) until June 28, 2001, ElcomSoft sold AEBPR in such a way that the program could be ordered from a web site accessible in the US; and
<il>(3) Sklyarov talked about Adobe eBook encryption at the DEFCON convention (he had given a talk entitled "eBook Security: Theory and Practice").
The potential penalties? Up to five years in a Federal penitentiary and $500,000 in fines. Sklyarov is currently in Federal custody, awaiting transfer to San Francisco.
In this essay, I'll argue that Sklyarov's case proves beyond any doubt that the DMCA should be overturned by a high court action. I'll leave aside the profound injustice of arresting a Russian citizen for writing a program in Russia, that is perfectly legal in Russia, and focus on the DMCA's role in this case.
Here's my point, in a nutshell: the DMCA poses a profound threat to the lawful fair use rights possessed by US citizens. It strikes the balance between intellectual property and user's rights in a way that is far too slanted towards corporate interests, and--worst of all--it poses a profound threat to the very traditions of free and open intellectual exchange that created our high-technology industries in the first place. As a community, we should speak with one voice: Free Dimitry Sklyarov! Down with the DMCA!
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998, a bill signed into law by President Clinton, is one of the worst consequences of the all-too-cozy relationship between corporate donors and Congress. In essence, wealthy multinational corporations (specifically, the software and entertainment industries) got almost about everything they wanted; opposing the DMCA, and ignored in the law-making process, were scientists, librarians and academics who aren't able to donate millions to re-election campaigns. Of course, the mere fact that a bill was passed simply because it had wealthy backers doesn't make it unconstitutional. What's wrong with the DMCA is that it robs citizens of fundamental rights that are guaranteed elsewhere under US Federal law and the Constitution.
Here's what's wrong with the DMCA, which, I'd like to stress, isn't solely about copyright. Much of the bill is devoted to criminalizing technologies that can be used to circumvent the anti-piracy measures built into commercial software. What's frightening about this bill is that it isn't about criminalizing acts of copyright infringement that involve the use of circumventing technologies; the bill criminalizes the creation, distribution, use or discussion of such technologies, even in the absence of provable copyright infringement. Sklyarov isn't accused of making illegal copies of eBooks; he's accused of "importing, offering to the public, providing, or otherwise trafficking" in software that circumvents copy protection measures.
So what's Dimitry Sklyarov's crime? Advanced eBook Processor is clearly to intended not only circumvent Adobe's eBook copy protection scheme, but to enable the user to make use of a lawfully purchased product on more than one computer. According to Adobe (and as told to the FBI), here's how the eBook copy protection scheme works:
After users upload the program [Adobe eBook Reader] onto their personal computer systems, the users can contact a web-based electronic bookseller, such as Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble.com, and purchase book titles in an electronic format known as an eBook. As a result of a series of seamless transactions taking place between the electronic bookseller, an Adobe Server and the customer's computer, users may only open and view the encrypted eBook on the specific computer that the user utilized to engage the transaction. Because the process is taking place outside the view or control of the user, the user never sees the verification/decryption process take place between the eBook file and the Adobe eBook Reader. Nevertheless, because the book sold in encrypted form and only accessible through the eBook Reader is not duplicatable, the copyright holder's interest in the book is protected (Criminal Complaint, US v Sklyarov, July 7, 2001).
If you run AEBPR on an eBook, the program translates the eBook files into ordinary Portable Document Format (PDF) files that can be copied and distributed without limitation. According to the indictment, "the real damage done by the AEBPR program is that it creates a `naked file' that enables anyone to read the eBook on any computer without paying the fee to the bookseller. Only one legitimate copy of the encrypted eBook needs to be purchased originally and after the protections are stripped through the usage of the Elcomsoft program, there are no restrictions and the eBook can be duplicated freely and made available for usage on any computer" (Criminal Complaint, US v Sklyarov, July 7, 2001).
Adobe's saying, essentially, that all you have to have is one naked file, and you've let the cat out of the bag, permanently. Soon, there will be copies of all the eBooks all over the Internet, and we'll be out of business. Nevermind, of course, that such acts would constitute copyright infringement, and Adobe would have every justification for going after the offenders. Look what the poor RIAA is going through! But that's too expensive. It's much easier to get Congress to pass something like the DMCA.
The trouble is, the DMCA flies in the face of long-standing definitions concerning the fair use of lawfully published, copyrighted works; principally, that the owner of a lawfully published work has the right to make a copy for archival purposes. No less an authority than the US Supreme Court has affirmed this right. What's more, even the DMCA contains an explicit recognition of the superiority of fair use rights when it comes to the fair use of copyrighted materials. The DMCA explicitly states that "[n]othing in this section shall affect rights, remedies, limitations, or defenses to copyright infringement, including fair use...." This is, admittedly, a very strange assertion, since much of the rest of the Act flies in the face of fair use rights. Its presence must mean that, somewhere in the twisted and woefully corrupt process that created the DMCA, conscience prevailed, and legislators inserted language that was intended to make one point clear: If the DMCA came into conflict with basic rights guaranteed by law, it has to go. Sure, that's going to be tough on businesses trying to sell content over the Internet, but why should a government throw out basic rights, guaranteed by law, to benefit a few corporations? Even a Congressperson can see that's going too far.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Christmas is over and the after Christmas sales have started, one thing to grab up now before they all vanish is LED light strings, yes the ones that are sold for Christmas lighting, they are being marked down right now, stores have to make room for the next big holiday, meaning that you can get some major bargains right now.
All month long, I have been looking at my local Alco store (it's like a small Target/dollar store with less stuff), I have been eyeballing the LED Christmas light strings, but have been biding my time knowing the price would drop dramatically after Christmas. Sure enough, a few days ago when I dropped in, I made a beeline to the back of the store for their Christmas section, I saw the sign, ALL CHRISTMAS DECORATION 50% OFF, that's all I needed.
I grabbed several spools of white LED lights in 150 led length and several in 60 led length. These take a fraction of the power to run as other lights. I intend on using them for defused, mood lighting in the sky castle, I have enough to light up the main room, the bedroom, the deck, the front and back steps with a bit left over. I am using these like LED rope lights, but getting them at a bargain price!
These are indoor-outdoor lights so I can use them on the deck and to light up the steps, I'll just plug them up when I need or want light out there. I'll be going back to town soon, I am hoping they will have some LED light strings left over when they drop the price by 75%!
Go get your lights now, this is the time to stock up on them :)

Seven years ago, before LEDs were available, or cheap, I put about 100 on a 20 inch wire ring and hung it in my kitchen—-even diffuse light at 8 watts. Menards after Xmas markdown.
I have a couple of strings hung on one bedroom wall–controlled by a wall switch.

Important VCCS E-mail Account Changes
Last updated May 16, 2013
New Apps Available
When you log in to My VCCS to access your Gmail account after the May 17- 18 Blackboard upgrade, you will have access to a number of new, powerful teaching and learning tools. During the scheduled outage, not only will Blackboard Learn be upgraded to Service Pack 11, which includes new features like a survey tool and the on-the-fly embedded video tool, Video Everywhere, but Google Apps for Education will also be expanded from its current set of core apps—Gmail, Docs, Calendar, etc,-- to a broad selection of new consumer apps: YouTube, Google+, Maps, Books, Picasa, etc. These new apps will provide VCCS students, faculty, and staff with access to an even more powerful suite of teaching, learning, social, and communication tools that can be used both in and outside of the classroom.
Agreeing to Terms of Service
There are some crucial steps that all students, faculty, and staff need to take to successfully access these Google Apps, including Gmail, after the upgrade. Everyone in the VCCS domain must click through and agree to a new consumer Terms of Service (TOS) when they next login. No Google Apps can be accessed until users agree to these new TOS. To see these TOS, click here: http://www.email.vccs.edu/terms-of-service.
Don't Get Locked Out
Second, when setting up a profile in Google Plus (G+), a Facebook-like social networking service included in the upgrade, it is especially important that users include a correct date of birth (or at least a date of birth that will make them 13 years old or older). If they include a date of birth indicating they are younger than 13, they will be permanently locked out of all Google services. This cannot be undone without significant effort and additional costs. For more about reactivating a disabled account, click here: http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1333913.
More information about VCCS Google Apps for Education can be found at http://www.email.vccs.edu/extra-apps.
