Luqman Stroud thought he'd be the last person who would end up in a college class that prepared students to become military officers. A Brooklyn native who got his GED and left John Dewey High School early because, he says, he was bored with school, Stroud was making good money in his family's construction business at age 20. And even when he was talked into giving college a shot, it was with the goal to become a policy lawyer, not an army officer. Besides, he had reason to be wary of armed authority: At age 13, he says, a New York police officer handcuffed him during an argument at his house, put a gun to his head and said, "I've killed three of your kind already."
Yet last fall, the 25-year-old Stroud found himself sitting in Military Science 1 at York College, part of the effort to re-establish Reserve Officers' Training Corps programs at the City University of New York for the first time since before the Vietnam War, and the larger effort by the military to put themselves back in urban areas throughout the country. Drawn by an interest in military history -- and the hope of an easy A -- he'd enrolled in the class during his senior year more as a test than anything else. After a lifetime of challenging police officers when they tried to search him without cause, Stroud wanted to see what it would be like to challenge the Establishment on its own turf. He knows soldiers aren't cops, but they have uniforms and guns and they work for "the man," and Stroud will tell you that the perception is the same. "I walked in there with a little bit of a chip on my shoulder," he recalled. "What can a guy in the Army teach me as a civilian?"
It's complicated interactions like these that promise to shade the military's return to New York City colleges after a four-decade absence from urban areas, an experiment that many both within and outside the U.S. armed forces hope will begin to address a persistent lack of diversity among officers. African Americans made up 12 percent of the U.S. population and 16 percent of enlisted personnel in 2008, the latest year such data is available, but comprised just eight percent of active-duty armed forces officers. Hispanics accounted for just five percent of military leaders that year, even though they represented 15 percent of the population, and 12 percent of enlisted personnel. For many in minority communities, the message behind those numbers is clear: The military would love to have them, just not in positions of much power, and some are skeptical of even the supposedly great career that lies at the end of four years of armed forces training. After all, officers and enlisted both see battle.
"Underserved: A Case Study of ROTC in New York City," a 2011 report authored by Cheryl Miller of the conservative American Enterprise Institute, worried that army officer recruitment had become restricted to the South and Midwest, which alienated the officer corps from much of American society. "By overlooking institutions like CUNY -- among the top producers of African American baccalaureates -- the military is not accessing minority officers fully reflective of the population," Miller wrote. "This absence might account, in part, for the lack of black officers in the top leadership ranks." The implied benefit in having minorities more a part of the military is the same for having more minority groups be a part of the political process. For blacks and Hispanics, if their numbers are larger, their voice is louder. For the armed forces, a louder minority voice means decisions will be more representative of what the nation wants.
Another part is that a lot of blacks and Hispanics don't trust the military. Stroud didn't. He had never gotten along with policemen, so why would he get along with other people with guns and uniforms?
"People in those communities perceive the military as an organization that will send their children off to war," said current York College ROTC chief Lt. Col. Juan Howie, himself an African American. "No one wants to have their children sent off to war."
The question now facing the military: How do they sell themselves to communities of color not as an organization that will put their children in danger, but as one that will open up career paths?
For Lieutenant Colonel Joe Pishock, the road to running the Reserve Officers' Training Corps programs at two New York city colleges began in 2007. He was an army communications officer sitting with his wife, an army physician's assistant, on a helipad in Diyala, Iraq, waiting to be picked up by a chopper. She looked at him and asked, "You ever think about doing something completely different?"

Remington College of Nursing Summer 2013
- 0Jun 4, '13 by mstink88Hello everyone,
I have not seen any recent postings. I was wondering if who else has been admitted to the Summer 2013 term at RCON? Look forward to some responses.
- 0Jun 5, '13 by mstink88Quote from acrabtreeHi mstink88!
I have also been admitted to the July 2013 class at RCON! I'm so excited to begin the program, but I feel like I have so much to do in the next month and a half! I'm so glad that you started this thread, it's nice to hear from someone else that's going too!
This month and a half is going to fly! Did you start looking for places yet? Im going to look more in depth the weekend of orientation.
- 0Jun 7, '13 by mstink88Quote from acrabtreeIt already is flying by! I'm relocating from Connecticut, so I've started researching places in the area, but it's hard not being able to see them in person! What are your plans for housing? Are you planning on having a roommate?
I have been looking for apartments online. I just emailed a realtor this morning to see if he can find places for me as well. Most places look really nice but then some reviews have been throwing me off. How about you?Last edit by Esme12 on Jun 21, '13
- 0Jun 7, '13 by acrabtreeI feel the same way about the reviews! Then again, I feel like people really make a habit of writing reviews when they are unhappy with things, so I'm not sure what to believe. I am definitely planning on having a roommate, it will make things easier especially since I'm only planning on living in Florida for the duration of our program, and places in Lake Mary tend to be more expensive than the surrounding areas!
- 0Jun 12, '13 by eshipmanIf you guys don't mind me asking, what were your science and undergraduate GPAs and your score on the TEAS test? I just had my phone interview Friday and am still finishing up Microbiology (ending next week) so I have not been given a decision but I would like to see what people who are getting in have.

Hello! I having a Bachelors in Biology so I have an extensive background in Science. But my science GPA per Remington's required courses was calculated at around 3.3, my overall undergrad was about 3.09 and my TEAS score was around a 74. I do have three years working for a doctor and had my letters of recommendation through two docs. I think they look at your profile overall. You should hopefully receive a response soon. I was interviewed on a Friday and the next friday I received my acceptance package. Let me know if you have any more questions
- 0Jun 12, '13 by mstink88Quote from eshipmanThank you! Did you receive your package via email or through regular mail?
No problem, I received a package through regular mail. If you receive a large envelope then you know you are in. I got a call today to see if I was still going seems they have a wait list too. I hope the best! Let me know how it goes

Adventure Nepal 26th Feb
Hello all,
Thought i would post to say hi to any fellow Adventure Nepal holiday makers! Myself and Nick are really excited about the trip (and a tiny bit nervous as this is our first ever trekking holiday!) Any tips or hints from people that have been on this trip would also be gratefully recieved :-)
Hello All,
I'm on this trip too. Just a few days to go.
I'm travelling on my own too Jason, and as a bloke it might mean we end up sharing hotel rooms. I'm going to hire the sleeping bag out there.
Looking forward to it and will see you all soon.
Lou/Nick - you will love this trip, we did it over Christmas and it was a dream holiday. Dont worry about the trekking as you are well looked after and the first few days get you prepared for a few harder days nearer the end! as long as you have done plenty of walking over here and you know that your boots are good thats all you need to worry about. The days were generally warm and the only really cold night was at the highest point - but its worth it for the early morning view of the sunrise on the mountains. They provide wetsuites for the rafting (we didnt know that) so you will be warm enough. We didnt have any rain during the day on our trip. Buy some of the local rum to add your hot chocolate at the tea break in the afternoon. The locals come and sell bottles of beer at the evening stops. Take some playing cards for the evening, we had some great laughs. There are plenty of places in the main towns to exchange money (dollars, pounds or travellers cheques). They boil all the water on trek and you can fill your camel packs with this.
Cantt think of any other tips but if you have any queries just ask - enjoy!! youll love it.
Nigel & Christina
Ah thanks for the reply Nigel, its great to hear from someone who has been on the trip and the advice is all gratefully received. Did you buy alot of specialised clothing for the trip? if so can you recommend any site/shop? we are looking to buy pretty much everything they suggest on the packing list but im in two minds as to whether its over exaggerated or if infact we are going to need thermal underwear in March :-) Whilst i don't want to be under prepared in anyway, id rather not spent hundreds unnecassarily. We are definately going for good boots like you mention but can i ask what kind of sleeping bag you took? they recommend 3/4 season bags, i have two standard sleeping bags at home, do you think they would be adequate? hope i haven't overloaded you with questions here, I really appreciate your help thank you
hi my name is jason,and i'm on this trip to, its my first time treking aswell.
iv'e spoken to other people who have been on these trips and they tell me alot of the stuff you need is avalible in katmandu ,and it costs a lot less than it would in britain.my only problem is have been wearing in my boots so much they are nearly worn out ,iv'e been told a walking pole comes in handy,they cost less than £10 over there but are about £40 here,from the reveiws iv'e read it sounds like the people are very helpfull and hopefully will help out with advise with anything we are missing before heading off trecking.

A scan tool will be needed to retrieve codes in the memory of your Chevy's computer, computers in your car may not be communicating properly with each other but a scan tool that can communicate with all the computers of your Chevy will be required to do basic diagnostic tests.

Thanks, I do not have a scan tool. Does this mean I have to bring the van to a repair facility for diagnotistic?

The Observer held a contest earlier this year to give away a copy of the "Outwitting Squirrels" book.
The winner was Pat Shaw, at Davidson College Presbyterian Church preschool, who said: "I will allow that these 4-year-old children are very amused and entertained by the squirrels' antics, but feeding squirrels takes a toll on our budget. We have several lesson plans about birds and we rarely see one anymore!"
Here are a few other submissions from readers making their case to win:
Life lessons from Nutkin
From Stratford Kiger, of Charlotte, who's made several after-market modifications of one sort or another to her feeder setup to thwart the critters. They were, of course, a failure.
"You have to admit that squirrels are the most optimistic animals on the planet ... They seem to thrive on the challenges put before them and proceed with reckless abandon to keep trying until they succeed. Perhaps we should all aspire to a squirrel-like tenacity when facing challenges in our own lives."
What rhymes with 'squirrel'?
Jan Bartels, of Charlotte, crafted a poem about squirrels and her mate. An excerpt:
Please help me, my husband has now run astray,
He's addicted to chasing the squirrels away.
He bangs on the window while they eat birdseed,
They just keep on eating and pay him no heed.
He rants and he raves as they chew on our chair,
They continue to munch just not seeming to care.
They chew on our brick and our new garden hose,
Our lawn is now covered with small squirrel holes.

Urinating in the open prevalent in streets around the Meenakshi Sundareswarar Temple
: It was around 4 p.m. on Wednesday evening when a well dressed gentleman walked up to the West Tower Street and West Avani Moola Street junction, urinated on the road side next to two garbage bins and walked back without any concern for the residents, traders and more importantly the tourists who are forced to bear the disgusting odour.
The menace of people urinating in the open was not confined to this junction alone as many streets and lanes around the Meenakshi Sundareswarar Temple were facing the same problem. The residents of Pookara lane in West Masi Street had gone to the extent of putting a 20 feet long wooden barricade along the lane to discourage people from using the place as an open toilet.
R. Rajeswari, a resident of the lane, said that she and her neighbours did not even mind narrowing down of their lane in order to get rid of the unbearable stench that gave them sleepless nights. "We had no choice but to put up barricades.
Women, children and the aged could not live here at all because of the uncultured behaviour of some individuals," she rued.
The owner of a mattress shop on the West Tower Street said that the junction had been virtually turned into an open public toilet despite the presence of a drinking water tank and an auto rickshaw stand.
"The traders wrote to the Corporation officials many times. But every time we complained, they deputed two policemen here just for two days and I need not say what happened after that," he added.
Appreciating the fact that the Meenakshi Temple had got the ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) certification and the four (North, South, East and West) Chithirai streets have been given a face-lift, the locals feel that it is time to clean up the four Avani Moola Streets and four Masi Streets along with the adjoining lanes in order to ensure a clean and hygienic environment.
They also recall that M.K. Alagiri, the first Union Cabinet Minister to have been elected from Madurai Lok Sabha Constituency, had given priority to constructing modern public toilets immediately after assuming office in May 2009.
They hope that more such toilets could be constructed around the temple so that tourists could spend time appreciating the historical significance of the city rather than complaining about its hygiene.

Rain Design launches iSlider at Macworld/iWorld 2013
We haven't seen much out of Rain Design in the past few years. The iRest won Macworld Best of Show in 2011, but there was nothing new new at Macworld in 2012. Later in the year, the company rolled out the mTower, a stand that looks like it was designed to compete against TwelveSouth's BookArc line and upgraded its mStand to include a swivel base.
For Macworld/iWorld 2013, the company unveiled another iOS-centered accessory: the iSlider. Made of anodized alumnium like many of Rain Design's other products, the stand can fold down into a small wedge and be tucked into the side pocket of a bag. It's billed as being used for an iPhone or iPad, but this is best suited for an iPad or iPad mini.
The iSlider will retail for US$49.95, but Rain Design doesn't have it on its website yet.

The mother of a teenager who was driving an RV when it crashed in Kansas, killing five family members, described her son Wednesday as a hero.
Pauline Kerber spoke in a prepared statement from the St. Paul hospital where Adam Kerber, 17, was being treated. He was listed in fair condition at Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare. His brother Nick, 8, was also in fair condition at Gillette.
The crash happened April 1 on Interstate 35 near Williamsburg, Kan., when a recreational vehicle carrying members of the Kerber family and friends — 18 people in all — hit a guardrail and a concrete bridge rail. Five family members, ages 10 through 25, died in the crash.
The RV was a Freightliner box truck that had been converted to hold living quarters, and was towing a trailer as the family returned home from a motocross event in Texas. Adam Kerber was an aspiring motocross racer.
"To me, Adam is a hero," Pauline Kerber said in the statement. "He did everything he possibly could to save 13 lives."
The statement went on to ask for privacy and said the family wasn't doing interviews.
The Kansas Highway Patrol said Wednesday it continues to investigate the crash. The patrol said it has yet to download some computer data from the vehicle that could yield more information, and also needs to interview witnesses, including some of the injured.
The National Transportation Safety Board is also reviewing the crash.

l'original est ici au Boulevard Voltaire
Translation PapaMaman & Wally
"La Révolution des Jonquilles" is a Savoyard group that considers it necessary to resist the liberal / libertine culture that has been imposed by much of the media, political and business world for 30 years. This group is recognized in the charter and the manifesto of the Printemps français and promotes the defense of the weak, primarily children, the elderly, any the those weakened by the loss of reference points. For there is no greater poverty than losing one's sense of family, because a family that consists of father, mother, and child is and should remain the bedrock of society. "
There was a time when the lifestyle of actors was merely tolerated by society. Today, cajoled and paid excessively, they convey success and they are an example for young people of Star Academy and they all talk about love.
On this theme, with state-of-the-art technology, artists convey a new fashion: that of the surrogate baby.
Yes, Sarah Jessica Parker, Nicole Kidman, Ricky Martin, and Elton John have used surrogates for one or more babies. For Sarah Jessica Parker (it was 2009), the heroine of Sex and the City was then 44 years old, she had a 6-year-old son, and admitted in the tabloids that she was not able to carry out a pregnancy to term. She got twins. According to the Daily Mail, the surrogate mother's name was Michelle Ross, 26, and had a tattoo of a blue and pink triangle on her wrist to show her bisexuality. She received approximately 30,000 euros for her services and the California agency Growing Generations, specializing in the trade, would have received a commission of around 80,000 euros.
In 2011, it was Nicole Kidman who used a surrogate mother, she was then 43 years old. This was her fourth child. She already had a two-year-old daughter and two teenagers adopted with Tom Cruise who do not speak to her anymore. According to the Herald Sun, about 110,000 euros changed hands, with 20% for the surrogate mother. Karen Synesiou from the Center for Surrogate Parenting , an organization in charge of the service, had indicated that there was no cash bonus for surrogate mothers who gave birth to children of stars.
On Christmas Day 2010, Elton John, 63, and his partner David Furnish, 48, had scheduled the birth of "their" son Zachary. Elton John had then said that he did not know who the father was because the two men had given their seeds for them to be mixed with an anonymous egg. Two years later, the same surrogate mother gave birth to "their" second son, Elijah.
Ricky Martin revealed his homosexuality in 2010. In 2008, at age 36, he turned to a surrogate mother who gave birth to two boys made with his sperm and an egg from an anonymous donor. At the time, Ricky Martin was single. The singer said to Oprah Winfrey that he was already thinking about what he would say to the boys about their biological mother: "I wanted you so badly in my life that with God's help everything is possible. I think a family is based on love. I love you and you love me and that's the most important thing." Since then, he met a friend who accepts his children very well.
Overseas, the practice is commonplace and the list of stars in show biz who use surrogacy is growing every day: Elizabeth Banks, Chris Daughtry, Neil Patrick Harris, etc... Of course, all of these stars are thrilled and say everything is for the best in the best of all worlds because we love each other, but what kind of filial love can the daughter of Robert De Niro develop when she was born from a surrogate mother ago two years, while the actor has just celebrated his 70th birthday?
The commodification of the human being is no longer a taboo: and children are contracted and women are rewarded for renting out their wombs. All these objectified children can only bear it, and none of them will ever know the warmth of the maternal bosom: lest they attach, they are separated from the surrogate mother at birth. However, from this comes the unwavering relationship between the child and the mother. Early last century, Aldous Huxley described a new emancipated world of natural reproduction. In this wonderful world, the human was destructured in vitro, in order to have no more emotions. Let's hope that psychopathologies will not be the new harm of the century that all the advocates of progress are preparing for us.

PHOENIX (AP) - A woman suspected of shooting two men outside a central Phoenix sports bar is facing a murder charge.
Phoenix police say 29-year-old Jessica Wood was booked Saturday on one count each of first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder.
Officer James Holmes says Wood approached 32-year-old Thomas Allen Marcussen and a 44-year-old man Friday night while they were sitting outside Zipps Sports Grill and shot them.
Holmes says a witness was able to disarm Wood and held her until police arrived.
Authorities say Marcussen did not survive and the condition of the over victim is unknown.
Holmes says detectives have found no evidence of any relationship between Wood and the victims.
He says she showed signs of intoxication.

Note: ASAPS cannot give advice about specific medical problems nor should answers provided by responding surgeons be substituted for a complete medical history, work-up and an in-personal medical/surgical consultation. Sorry we can't answer all questions. We try to select questions that have the widest general interest.
Will surgery help relieve puffy eyes due to allergies?
A consultation will assist in making the recommendation. But usually yes. The puffiness is caused by fatty pockets around the eye which have started to push the overlying tissues outwards. Removing the extra fat and tightening things up will improve the eyelid region.

Help make it easier for other Avvo users to choose the right lawyer by sharing your experience with this attorney. It's fast, simple, and safe.
Lawyers: Use the Peer Endorsements section to provide input about other attorneys.
If you are looking for a great lawyer that is very knowledgeble in the law, does his homework, keeps you posted on the process of the litigation, returns your calls and e-mails, gives you great detailed responses to any questions, fights for everything you deserve in court, and has very reasonable fees. Then please do yourself a favor and retain Christopher Fay.
I wish I had Chris for my original divorce back in 2008.
Chris worked so hard on my case from begining to end for the motions filed to court that the entire process was a pleasant experience.
Chris is one of the most thorough lawyers I have worked and truly cares about his clients. Most recently, he helped negotiate an early release of my lease that saved me thousands of dollars. Acting as an intermediary, he presented the leasing company with my point of view enabling them to understand more clearly my goals and we came to an agreement that left both parties satisfied. He has also assisted with a rental property that I owned in CA by helping me handle the process of evicting delinquent renters and taking them to small claims court. Chris also manages my personal will and provides guidance on legal financial issues. He always goes above and beyond ensuring that every detail is covered. Chris genuinely cares about his clients and often gives pro bono advice to assist people that may not be located in his area.
Chris exceeds all expectations and goes above and beyond the call of duty. He kept in constant communication with myself during the duration of the case and always answered any telephone calls/ emails in a very timely manner. You will find yourself in good hands if you take on Christopher Fay as your lawyer.
If was a great pleasure working with Christopher Barrett-Fay as my attorney, he was very personal and he had my best interest in hand at all times. I would highly recommend him because he is a people person and he take pride in his business.
We highly recommend Mr. Fay. He listened to our issues, responding to our numerous questions and handled our legal matters quickly. He responded to our concerns in a prompt manner and made us feel comfortable. His level of professionalism was outstanding.

I'm writing for tomorrow, day 18. Tomorrow is a holy day in the Church of the Ellipsoid Orb. My Broncos will be worshiping at home with the Dolphins, and It will be televised here, so I'll be in deep religious meditation tomorrow afternoon. While writing I'm watching the Oregon vs. Colorado game.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today's took me 2:50 (average 4:38). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From Mother Jones (Hat-Tip Joanne Dixon): …But when the economy stagnates and life gets harder, people get meaner. That's just human nature. And the economy has been stagnating for the working class for well over a decade—and then practically collapsing ever since 2008.
So who does the WWC take out its anger on? Largely, the answer is the poor. In particular, the undeserving poor. Liberals may hate this distinction, but it doesn't matter if we hate it. Lots of ordinary people make this distinction as a matter of simple common sense, and the WWC makes it more than any. That's because they're closer to it. For them, the poor aren't merely a set of statistics or a cause to be championed. They're the folks next door who don't do a lick of work but somehow keep getting government checks paid for by their tax dollars. For a lot of members of the WWC, this is personal in a way it just isn't for the kind of people who read this blog.
And who is it that's responsible for this infuriating flow of government money to the shiftless? Democrats. We fight to save food stamps. We fight for WIC. We fight for Medicaid expansion. We fight for Obamacare. We fight to move poor families into nearby housing…
This guy makes a lot of sense, but to really get where he's coming from, you'll need to read the while thing. Click through please. We need a way to convince working class whites that the poor are not the ones keeping them from thriving. It's the super rich.
From Daily Kos:
Stories like this make you look at the calendar to check the year. Yep, still 2014. And it is utterly embarrassing and shocking that anyone who holds these racist views are operating in any leadership role. Meet Kentucky's Southeast Bullitt Fire Chief Julius Hatfield. After stopping to help accident victims, one white family and one black family, he was caught on video having a friendly good ol' boy chat:
Video from a Bullitt County Sheriff's deputy's body camera shows Hatfield's department responding to a car accident on I-65, south of the Clermont exit in September.
"Well, I've got a family of four from Cincinnati, I got to do something with," the Bullitt County deputy said in the video.
Hatfield replied, "We ain't taking no n—— here." Then he laughs.
This Republican is a true representative of the "love" of Republican Supply-side Jesus (the polar opposite of the real Jesus).
From NY Times: House Republicans filed a long-threatened lawsuit Friday against the Obama administration over unilateral actions on the health care law that they say are abuses of the president's executive authority.
The lawsuit — filed against the secretaries of Health and Human Services and the Treasury — focuses on two crucial aspects of the way the administration has put the Affordable Care Act into effect.
The suit accuses the Obama administration of unlawfully postponing a requirement that larger employers offer health coverage to their full-time employees or pay penalties. (Larger companies are defined as those with 50 or more employees.)
And just a couple days ago, I said they wouldn't file this. Color me OOPS! This is truly an act of desperation, as this pure theatre to pacify the rabid racists to whom the Republican Party have sold out. They are doing it, because there is nothing they can do about Obama's executive action on immigration.

Cidha Dahi Utsava At Ancol Beach, Jakarta, Indonesia
By Hari Narayana Das
That morning the sun rise was so wonderfull. The cool air, the chirp of bird and the wave of the beach came in harmony giving an pleasant atmospher to escape from the rush and crowded of Jakarta city. Festifal beach, one of beaches located in Jakarta gulf, Ancol is the place that attract many visitors to come and enjoy the beauty of the beach with their family or in group As the name of the beach is Festival Beach, it is suittable to do Hare Krishna public festival. H.H. Subhag Swami Maharaj inspired the devotees to do festival in the public area in Jakarta as Srila Prabhupada mention on His letter "…., this combination of book distribution and public festival is very good in bringing the people to an attraction for Krishna consciousness. Go on holding as many festivals as possible." (SPL to Nrasinga Caitanya, 5th June 1974), that was why the devotees of Jakarta, came the Ancol beach to do cidha dahi utsava festival.
On June 30, 2013 the the devotees did cidha dahi utsava festival at the festival beach. The festival is the first time done by devotees in Jakarta. The committee of the festival, Raghunatha das along with other devotees (Navayouna prbhu, Satya prabhu, Madavendra prabhu, Narotam prabhu, Pada Sevana prabhu, Virabadra prabhu, Subudi Prabhu, Nyoman Sunarta prabhu, Ketut Tribayuna, Olik prbhu) prepared the festival. Many devotees from Bali, Sri Garbha das, Dinanath das, Brajanabha das, and others also came to help for the sucsess of the festival. They prepared the chip rice, cut the fruits, and many other preparations. The committee rented one tend for from the Ancol's autority for the festival. All the items of the festifal were donated by the devotees.
The devotees started the festival at 10.00 am. The brought Sri Sri gaura-Nitai deities from Sri Nilacala dham temple Jakarta, and from devote's deities. After finising the arati the deities in parade went to the beach to bath the Lord. Along the way to the beach the visitors who were mostly non Hindu were asthonized seeing the parade. They took picture of the devotees and the ceremonial. the conchshell also blown along the way. The Lord then bathed in the water where many visitors also played in. H.H. Subhag Swami Maharaj personaly presented and blown the conchshell when the Lord was in the water. After returning from the beach, the Lord was then abhisek by H.H. Subhag Swami Mahraj followed by other devotees. Srimati vishaka devi lead the bajan while the Lord was being abhisek. Maharaj gave class while the Deities were dressing.

A power outage at the Mall of Georgia Wednesday won't interfere with the biggest shopping days of the year, officials said.
The outage, attributed to high winds, was brief, and officials said there were not interruptions to normal business.
"This outage is not expected to have an impact on Black Friday preparation," said Carol Cox, the Buford mall's marketing director.
The mall is set to open at 8 p.m. Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, for an early beginning to the Black Friday shopping, a beginning to the holiday season.

BOSTON Milan Lucic scored on a breakaway with 49 seconds left in overtime to lift the Boston Bruins to a 3-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday night.
Lucic blocked Cam Atkinsons shot just inside the blue line and the puck took a big bounce toward the Columbus end with nobody between Lucic and Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobvrosky. Lucic corralled the puck and poked a shot between Bobvroskys pads.
Loui Eriksson and Shawn Thornton also scored the Bruins.
Boston goalie Chad Johnson stopped 32 shots playing for just the third time this season with starter Tuukka Rask getting a night off.
Bobvrosky made 28 saves for the Blue Jackets, who took a 1-0 lead in the first on Blake Comeaus second goal of the season. Boston scored twice before Nick Foligno restored the tie with 3:26 left in the second period.MORE IN Sports WireMIAMI Dwyane Wade scored 24 of his 31 points in the first half, Luol Deng finished with 25...

If you're a subscriber to Sports Illustrated, be prepared for an article by Tim Layden in this week's issue that will discuss Cam Newton's time spent at the IMG Academy and the first two games of his NFL career, and how he has -- through hard work and determination -- made an amazing transition from the college game to the NFL game.
Thanks to the kind folks at SI, I was fortunate enough to get a sneak peek at the Newton article that will roll out in this week's issue of the magazine, and I must say that if you're not a subscriber, this is an issue that you might want to pick up at your local newsstand or download to your mobile device.
In the brilliantly-written article, Layden covers Cam's progress after being drafted by the Panthers at #1 overall through his time at IMG with Chris Weinke, and provides some analysis of Cam's performance in his first two games against Arizona and Green Bay. Let's take a closer look at some of the nuggets that Layden provides in the article after the jump.
Out of respect for both Layden and Sports Illustrated, I'm not going to do a direct copy and paste of the entire article, but I am going to share a few thoughts from the piece that I found very interesting.
The first thing I want to bring to your attention is from Newton's time with Chris Weinke at the IMG Academy. According to Layden (emphasis mine):
On one of their first days together Weinke challenged Newton. Like most football fans, he had viewed the ESPN session in which former NFL coach Jon Gruden tells Newton that NFL play-calling language can be overwhelming and says to him, "Call something at Auburn that's a little verbal...Give me something. What's an Auburn play sound like?"
Newton stammered that Gruden was putting him on the spot and could come up with nothing more complex than "Thirty-six." (Author's note: We all remember this, and most people have come to the realization that Gruden practically threw Cam under the bus.)
So after Newton had studied the Carolina playbook for a few days, Weinke sent him to a whiteboard and asked him to repeat, and draw up, the following play: Deuce right (formation), Nasty fly (motion), Scat right (protection), Spray 834 (the route tree, in the Coryell "digit" system), Y pivot (tagging the Y receiver with an additional move), H swing M (also tagging the H-back).
According to Weinke, Newton repeated the play flawlessly and drew it cleanly on the board. "I wanted to see what he was capable of learning," says Weinke. "And there was no question that he had studied that playbook. It was unbelievable. I had seen the Gruden thing, so I was shocked at what he could actually do — pleasantly so."
Notice the line that is in bold print. Newton repeated the play...flawlessly. Not "he did okay for a kid that's never played in the NFL"...flawlessly. Perfect. No mistakes. 100% correct.
There's only one word to describe it: amazing.
The lessons that Cam learned at IMG also translated on the field, as we learned from Layden, who spoke to Panthers center Ryan Kalil after the game in Arizona (again, emphasis mine):
"There were at least two times where I made a protection call and he changed it," says [Ryan] Kalil. "Basically he said, 'No, they're coming from over here.' And both times he was right. Hey, I saw the Gruden thing too. I wondered what he could handle. But we got both of those blitzes blocked in Arizona."
Think about this. On two separate occasions, Newton changed the protection at the line of scrimmage because he saw something Kalil didn't see, and both times he was right in changing the call. Remember, this is his first career start, and he's already seeing things in the defense that a 4 year veteran, Pro Bowl center isn't seeing. Again, there's only one word to describe it: amazing.
One of my favorite parts from the article is the quote from coach Ron Rivera in response to a question about Newton's disposition after the loss to Arizona.
Coach Rivera (again, emphasis mine):
"He was hurting on Monday ... My message was, 'Get over it and move ahead'. And before he left the building that afternoon, he watched the Arizona tape and then took Green Bay tape home with him. He came back on Tuesday and studied more Green Bay, and by the time everybody else came back on Wednesday, he was himself again."
Two things here: 1) he took Green Bay tape home with him. He didn't leave it at the office...he took it home. Who does that, seriously? 2) He showed up on his day off and watched more film. He could have taken Tuesday off like everyone else, and recovered from the opening game, but he didn't. He came in and did the work necessary to prepare himself for his next game.
This is something that can't be taught. This is nothing but Capital-D Desire, and it's something that Cam has within him, because he wants to be the best he can be for this football team. He wants to win.
Don't believe me? Then perhaps you'll believe Cam, because he said it himself:
"The more I see it, the more I know it's not college no more," he says. "But I'm gonna get it...It's not competing. I don't like that word, competing. You don't go into the game to compete. You go into each game to win."
This is our franchise quarterback, Panthers fans. This is the man who will lead the Panthers on the field for at least the next five years, and possibly for the next fifteen. If this is the approach he's taken in just his first year in the league with no OTA's and limited training camp, just imagine what he's going to be like when he has a normal full off-season to work on the finer points of his game.
[I'll give you a moment to let that sink in.]
Is Cam Newton the real thing? Tim Layden seems to think so, and even if I were to peel away my Panther fandom and look at this from an objective point of view, I'd still say that I agree with him. We've got something special here in Carolina, and this is only the beginning of what projects to be one heck of a fun ride.
Author's note: Once again, be sure to check out the full article in this week's edition of Sports Illustrated, as it's definitely worth the read. And, thanks to Sports Illustrated for allowing me the privilege to have a sneak peek at this article. It was much appreciated.

Okay, should be done ny now, still tough as old boots. I removed the potatoes and carrots, and am going in cook in a 200 oven for as long as it takes, cool, and put in the fridge to degrease. Let you know tomorrow what the final verdict is....
Just a note on Traditional Irish Lamb Stew. It is never made with any vegetables included. It consists of a Layer of sliced Russet Potatoes at the bottom of a dutch oven followed by a layer of sliced onion, followed by a lamb layer, season with 2 tsps of kosher salt and 2 tsps of "White Pepper" and an final upper layer of potatoes again. Add either chicken stock or water to just below the top layer of potatoes , Cover top layer with foil, bring to the boil then reduce to a slow simmer on the stove top for up to 90 mins, Then in the final 30 mins take 2 Tbs of corn starch mixed in water and add to stew,,,,,,, and allow to thicken for 30 mins........
Serve with your preferred veggies on a bowl,,,,,,,,,...

MicRotex and CC10 not working correctly
OK Folks,
I picked up a MicRotex 18 Turn and Phoenix 10 for my GWS TM.
Motor installed and spools up, but I notice a problem when running at mid-high throttle. I am running 2S1P and 3S1p LiPo batteries.
When the amp pull gets beyong 2.5-3ish, the voltage of my pack starts to drop significantly and depending on the prop the motor may shut down if I push it to 4.5-5A. The light starts blinking on my phoenix, and I have to drop the stick to rearm the throttle. Now, I have the soft shutdown on low voltage, so it shouldn't be a low voltage situation.
There are two problems here...
1. -Why is this combo pulling my voltage down soooo much. No, It isn't my packs. I have tried an Etec 1200 2S1P, Kokam 1500 3S1P and a brand new Apogee 830 3S1P. All get pulled down well below 9.5V under a 4.5-6A load. NOT RIGHT.
2. -Why is my phoenix shutting down. The light is blinking but I cannot tell why.
NOTE: The bell housing on my outrunner needed loctite to keep it in place, so it is now locked in place, and is not shifting on the shaft under load.
I have though of trying another ESC, but it would entail ripping a plane apart and desoldering it. Ugh.
Any Ideas???
|Apr 04, 2004, 06:21 AM
Is your charger working correctly????
To see pack volts drop off like that at only 5A either indicates faulty cells in the pack, or insufficiently charged cells.....
Also, V1.01 of the PHX link software seems to set an LVC of 9.7v regardless of the settings you program it with. this would exhibit the same behaviour as you are seeing

Well, I don't have the Phoenix programmer, I just listen for beeps :-)
And my charger must be working correctly for my other planes! I just flew my Alfa P47 for 15 minutes of hard throttle with my RZ2500 and Kokam's.
I don't think it is the charger, but I am at a loss. Perhaps today I will get out the soldering iron and switch ESC's.....
|Apr 04, 2004, 07:33 PM
I just received my Microtex motor the other day and bench tested it with my PHX10. I am experiencing the exact same thing you are Chris. I've reprogrammed my PHX10 3 times and still get the same thing. I was testing it with a 9x4.7 and went down to a 8x4.3 and it got better but still not gone. I'm not exceeding 3-4 amps when it shuts down. I was going to try a Jeti next. I think a call into Sal at NESail is in order...
|Apr 04, 2004, 09:39 PM
Sal is replacing the Phoenix controllers with TMM controllers in the orders he's shipping out now until castle puts out an update to the 10's. I'd check to see what is up with him.

OK, I just tried my CC PHoenix 25 and had the exact same problem. This really "feels" like a controller based failure. I would guess the software in my 25 is similar to the software in my 10.
Sal C.
Please update me with your findings on the Jeti. I tried adjusting the timing to all 3 options to no avail. I did find that on the softest start setting it fired up nicer, but still shuts down way too early, regardless of prop selection.
Although I hate to be a bad omen on you, I am ecstatic that I am not the only one experiencing this problem!!!
I crash landed the other day because of this, so I wont fly now until it is resolved.
|Apr 05, 2004, 07:58 PM
Hopefully CC will fix this problem - their controller is a great fit for this motor in terms of amps and its weight/size.

Has anyone called or emailed Patrick at Castle yet? I'd like to hear the outcome of this, as I have plans for a Microtex in the near future, and I really prefer Castle esc's. Keep us posted please.
|Apr 05, 2004, 08:47 PM
Has anyone else noticed on the Microtex that the bell rotates while the shaft is stationary? It doesn't take much resistance to hold it either.
|Apr 05, 2004, 09:54 PM
I remember some posts about that Sal. The fix seems to be to carefully use green loctite to secure the bell. This should be relayed to the manafacturer so that they correct it.
BTW I posted the CC problem on their vendor forum area. Check it to see their response.

Hi guys !
I have the MicRotex and PH 10 combo running a 8x4.3 prop and 3s-340 Kokams. I was experiencing a similar problem. The motor ran fine even up to full throttle. The problem occured if I throttled up too quickly. The motor would stutter, like it couldn't keep up with the ESC. Then the ESC would shut it down.
So I fiddled around with the programming. I brought a PH link usb programmer which allowed quick re-programming. I had to update the software to get it to work, but finally was able to manipulate the features. I tried a number of different settings but couldn't resolve the problem.
I thought maybe it was something else ???
I noticed my motor would twist slightly when throttleing, so I re-mounted my motor in a more secure manner, now there isn't any slop. I am using the Liteflightrc technique with two carbon rods kevlar wrapped to the collar. Anyway I retried it and it still stuttered but not as bad, so I re-did the programming to "Soft start" and "high advance" timing. It seems to have fixed the problem.Originally I didn't think soft start was desirable for 3D flying, but the throttle responce it definately adequate. I flew 3 pack throught and the motor didn't stutter at all. Now I really love this little motor.... Oh yeah it's mounted on a 6 Oz Edge Shockflyer. Having a blast !!!
Hope this helps you guy out, I am interested in hearing if it solves your problems.
Let me know.

Did you upgrade the software ON the ESC? If so, maybe that was part of this fix. I have tried soft start and the advanced timing myself, and THOUGHT it helped. It only helped a little.
That said, I don't have the USB link thingy, so I cant upgrade my ESC's software level....
I had to green loctite mine for sure, that is definitely a manufacturing defect.
Did it want to shut down at all? Did the Jeti seem to do the trick? I noticed when my endbell was loose it would slip under 1/2-3/4 throttle with the prop installed.
|Apr 06, 2004, 11:07 AM
Yes I had to upgrade the Software on the ESC in order to get the USB link to work. So it may have been part of the fix.
I also E-mail Shawn @ Castle creations and he "Have you tried fast start, in combination with the low timing advance? That particular setting is best for motors that may have less than optimal winding geometries. " Haven't tried that conbination yet, but I am happy with the performance with soft start and high advance timing.
I think a lot of my problem was my motor mount was twisting under high torque. when the motor stutter slightly the motor mount would twist back and cause the timing to be further out. With my new more ridgid mount and the soft start and advanced timing it runs a lot smoother. Even when I give full throttle burst the power comes on fairly quickly and smoothly.
Let me know if it help at all.
Oh yeah the USB link is pretty cool. I can quickly hook it up and review or change setting as easily as clicking with the mouse. No more waiting for the beeps and flashes. Now I just need to work out how to get my PC to the field..lol or maybe a Palm or Lap top..mmm
Good luck

Man accused of pointing a gun at another person on FridayMarch 19,2013Man to face charges for gun threat
BENNINGTON — A man who was removed from an appointed town office last year after police said he falsified information on his application was accused over the weekend of pointing a gun at a man.
Chris Gagne, 38, of Bennington, is expected to be charged with felony counts of unlawful restraint, aggravated assault with deadly weapon and carrying a deadly weapon, according to a press release from Lt. Lloyd Dean of the Bennington Police.
Dean said that a Bennington resident, who police did not identify, came to the police station on Friday around 2:30 p.m. to make a complaint. The resident said Gagne pointed a gun at him during an argument inside a Union Street apartment.
Officers John Behan and Lawrence Cole took a statement from the resident and a witness who saw the two arguing. Behan obtained a search warrant for the Union Street apartment.
Police approached the apartment and knocked loudly with no answer. The apartment was kept under surveillance until a team of officers could be brought in to execute the search warrant but Gagne was not inside.
Police learned that Gagne was inside a home in Williamstown, Mass.
Officers with the Williamstown Police Department arrested Gagne at 2:30 a.m. at the home on Saturday as a fugitive from Vermont.
Dean said Gagne is expected to be arraigned in Massachusetts as a fugitive, which will begin the process by which he will be extradited back to Vermont to face the felony charges.
Gagne also has pending misdemeanor charges of false pretenses, possession of stolen property, providing false information to police and false advertising.MORE IN This Just InBURLINGTON - The Auxiliary Bishop of Indianapolis has been appointed the 10th Bishop of...

Don't Have Mercy
Grove residents the ones who are not in the Related Group's pocket want the development [of condos on Mercy Hospital property] stopped. Jorge Perez, the developer, says the huge project will not affect anyone. He says no one can see it from South Bayshore Drive. Know what? I live next door and will see it every single day.
