naked mind.
I think the next writing is continiu in Chopra book about, God.
As you believe.. I read today.
Tahra Singh. ask me last week, If I am able to see the shower of comets here where I am. Just the constellations I said, But today I just wrote back to him and I told him, that there is kokology today, in Daily om It is speaking about the comets he was asking me about it. Well Now the kokology book is here. where I am. Lv. Alba
No wrong Response.
There are so many words that start with koko, and the pronunciation is same but it is not same spelling like coconut, coco ni kinasai came here in japanese. Well. We are stars in the sky indeed, and some are call famous stars, and other are just starting to grow a tail, others just growing to a normal life. I live in Japan before and now I am in japan again, I remember once listening to the radio from nagazaki The DJ said, listen you doing that, what. I say I was in home, and he in the radio station. listening to music and decide what I like or not like. of course I in home, and the radio some place else many waves meaning many places. After listening to the radio. many stars came up,Believe it or not even IChiro the Baseballist is included here. I never told them what I like or not whos best or not/ I just listened. and what ever the mind reacted was it. of course they thought I was telling them I like this and I dont like that. And many jumped to conclusion that this is the way it will be, like some group like dinamite, the famous group of japan. When people want fame. they can listen to manythings, when people want to accomplish something some will go beyond the law of nature, and the purity of clearness]like politicians. You say one, others say one millions, than the managers clean their hand like pilato and Christ crucifixion. and the manager said we must survive make money. This is an example. A big and good example. So many stars in Japan correct, and all the world indeed. some making millions, other just trying to be who they could one day be. What I can say is that At least one person should have send a post card. or a cd sign up] saying thank you white girl for making us famous your so stupet// Or like Kawamura Ryushi that once he says, at least he said something. He says I am just so loud. natural for japanese boy or men or whatever a woman must be silent. with no tail like a comet. with no brightness like mother earth. I can only say. I want everyone to succeed. I am not God we are all gods. Thanks for your book. School will be a nice place to have your book. sun shines, regardles or our ways. Our believes or interpreteccion. Thanks. Lv Alba Ps. I also enjoy reading Alice Bailey The archetype of Hercules within the horoscope.

Albany, NY (August 19, 2010) -
New York State's economy added 29,000 private sector jobs (+0.4%) in July 2010, the State Labor Department reported today. This was the state's largest monthly increase since April 2005. The total nonfarm job count in New York increased by 10,500 (+0.1%) in July 2010. The nonfarm job count tracks all jobs in the private and public sectors. It does not count the self-employed or workers on farms.
New York State's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was unchanged at 8.2% in July 2010. The number of unemployed New York State residents dropped slightly, falling from 798,200 in June to 796,700 in July 2010. The statewide labor force fell by 28,700 over this period.
"New York State's labor market regained some traction in July, adding 29,000 private sector jobs. In addition, our unemployment rate held steady at 8.2%, remaining well below the nation's rate of 9.5%," said Norman A. Steele, Deputy Director of the Division of Research and Statistics.
Note: When comparing different months, seasonally adjusted data provide the most valid comparison; for example, June 2010 versus July 2010. Non-seasonally adjusted data are valuable in year-to-year comparisons of the same month; for example, July 2009 versus July 2010.
New York State's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate held steady at 8.2% between June 2010 and July 2010. The U.S. unemployment rate was also unchanged over the month, remaining at 9.5% in July 2010. New York City's rate decreased from 9.5% in June to 9.4% in July 2010. The rate in the rest of the state (outside of New York City) increased from 7.3% in June to 7.4% in July.

A UCLA student placed behind bars on suspicion of choking a woman at a fraternity house was out on $100,000 bail Saturday.Paul Meyer, 20, was arrested at the Theta Chi fraternity house in the 600 block of Gayley Avenue around 2:30 a.m. Friday. Police said Meyer had choked an 18-year-old female UCLA student during a party. The details surrounding the altercation were unclear.
Meyer, a member of the fraternity, was arrested without incident on suspicion of attempted murder. However, campus police later clarified that he was booked on suspicion of assault with intent to commit rape and false imprisonment.
The alleged victim was treated and released at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, campus police said.
Meyer is due for arraignment March 12.

Social services dammed by judge for ruining the lives of an innocent family with a disabled child
(43 Posts)I read it in DM. So sad ss ruined the children's and parents lives with false allegations of FII. So very sad.
sorry but need more info
Story is reported in DM.
A Judge said SS made facts fit into an unfounded allegation of FII on a child with a disability.
All children were taken into care, the daughter was predicted A* and failed her GCSE's, Mum had a breakdown and can't care for the disabled child now through ill health the false allegations and loosing the children brought on.
SS don't seem to be sorry from their statement.
Yes, let's blame the social workers. If its in the mail it must be true.
sorry can't judge.
need a link at least (not to DM)
I haven't seen the story yet, but it's very rare for these cases to be publicised, as childcare proceedings are held in secret unless the judge decides, at their discretion, to allow the press in. They only do that in extreme cases, where Social Services have got it terribly wrong.
If these hearings weren't held in secret I'm sure that a massive can of worms would open. The secret hearing system makes Social Service far too powerful.
can I just say I have a child with sn, so I am not being nasty.
just need more info
It's only just gone online tonight on DM, I will take a look or you can to see who else is reporting this case.
Yes you can always rely on the Mail to tell the whole story in a totally unbiased and unsensationalised way.....
The judge ordered the children should be returned home, I hope the family aren't reading your response Selks.
With respect JR, if you were worried what the family might read on line, why on earth did you start this thread?
I started this thread as I once had the same accusation made against me, and I have been in touch with others again put through hell with false allegations.
"Judge Nicholas Marston said social services, who had accused the parents of deliberately causing symptoms of illness in their disabled son, acted on claims based on misunderstandings or which were just plain wrong.
"The 6am police swoop, which involved 14 officers descending on a quiet Hampshire cul-de-sac, was described by the judge as utterly disproportionate and itself abusive of the children involved."
here it is
Just because it's in the Mail doesn't mean social services are perfect... the judge certainly appears to have made damning comments about SS who did indeed tear apart a loving family.
"Once in care, the children were unable to see or speak to their mother for a year and were allowed to see their father only on weekly three-hour supervised visits.
Kane was kept separately from his sisters Carris and Marly, then 14 and eight, for four months, before they were all sent to a foster family 60 miles from the family home in Farnborough, with a daily two-hour round trip to school.
"Carris, who is now 16, had been predicted 14 A*s at GCSE, but left school with only two passes. She took herself out of care as soon as she turned 16 last summer and returned to her family.
"At a four-week hearing at Portsmouth County Court in February, Judge Marston praised Kealey and Andy for being caring, loving parents and criticised Hampshire County Council for failing to prove any of its claims.
"In his judgment, he said: What happened here is that a picture was painted before the facts were properly analysed, indeed before many of the facts were actually known, and then the facts were made to fit the picture."
I'm afraid everyone who leaped on the 'DM are evil, SS are angels' bandwagon before actually going and looking at the story are completely and utterly wrong.
Yet SS are still intransigent and refuse to admit they have abused these children: "John Coughlan, Hampshire County Councils director of childrens services, said that the council had acted with the best motives, adding: It is our duty as a local authority to secure the wellbeing of children."
Everyone involved in tormenting these children and failing to think about whether the allegations might just possibly be a massive exaggeration should be disciplined and made to apologise, face-to-face, to the parents and children.
My children's school lost their diagnosis letter and when I asked for my children to be statemented they didn't ask me to provide medical evidence, no they rang ss querying my mh and was this diagnosis real. They wouldn't accept any Dr letters from me, only GP letter, spoke to me like I was a child abusing loone beneath them. Wrote to the GP without permission looking for info despite ss closing the case. School still hasn't done a medical plan and they missed the 40 day release of information so I reported them to ICO, awaiting an investigation.
Be very carefull trying to aid your child's comfort in school, you could very easily loose your child.
Im shocked at the responses, a judge has ruled that the family are innocent............. why would we doubt him.
I hope the family can sue SS or something, I'm not normally of that mindset but the problems it has caused are horrific. The father lost his job, the daughter's schooling totally messed up and the son now can't go home as he father has to work abroad and mother has had a breakdown.
Sorry to hear this
I have no doubt that social workers and systems make mistakes, and when they do it's terrible and they need to be held to account. However, please don't use this single case to argue that all social workers are evil child snatchers ... I can see where this is going.
It sounds like similar happened to that family, only difference is ss in their case agreed with the child's school. In our case ss didn't join in the witch hunt. It was dreadfull what happened to us, I can't imagine how dreadfull it was for that family.
Fives, no-one has said all SWs are child snatchers. But these ones are. And it took 19 months for them to stop tormenting this family. Disgraceful.
I think there is something very wrong with cp when it comes to FII.
I and my children have a rare condition, loads of families have had this alleagation from loads of so called professionals. HV, Dr's, GP's, schools, cafcass just about all are ott hypervigilant starting witch hunts.
I agree, and I think it's the 'satanic panic' of our day. Or the Marietta whatsherface, that paediatrician who got her kicks sticking her finger up her patients' bums and decided they must have been abused. SS have clearly learned nothing from previous panics where they rushed to take children into care based on hysteria. (The Rochdale SWs who got carried away are proven perjurers who were captured on their own video recordings harassing children, yet carried on working for the same dept - it's probably no coincidence that Rochdale is where SS ignored actual real child abuse by gangs of Asian men...)
Roy Meadows fucked up loads of lives with his cot death rubbish he invented and is still doing so with his munch rubbish.
My children were taken away by SS after I was accused by them of having Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy. In spite of there being no evidence, SS refused to back down and return my kids. I haven't seen them for years. I have remarried and have another family now, but still miss my other kids terribly.
I am not even sure if MSBP exists. It is just a convenient label for SS. Ditto 'Borderline Personality Disorder' and 'Risk of Emotional Harm' when no such harm has actually taken place.
I am sorry you lost your children.
I think this has gone on a lot, I was so shocked that in such a small community of a rare condition how many parents had been investigated to varying levels. People are isolated by these allegations, it took a brave person to go public and othrers in our community became brave and shared their experience too.
I think that case is the tip of the iceberg.

According to Jim Farber at the NY Daily News, heavy metal turned 40 yesterday. He's got a point, since on June 1, Black Sabbath's first album was released in the United States (It had come out on February 13 in the UK). There were definitely some other bands and songs that set the stage for the genre (Zeppelin, for one), but Sabbath were the first to fully embrace the dark side. While his article about this milestone is a little on the scholarly side, it's also a nice defense of the genre, essentially stating that it's got a lot more validity that it's given credit for:
It's stupid, it's sexist, and it might even be Satanic.
That trilogy of ignorant views has obscured the true achievements – and the sonic rarity – of heavy metal from the start.
Isn't it about time we shot them all in the head once and for all?
Quick answer, yes. And while some in the mainstream media would prefer to dismiss metal or besmirch the people that listen to it (yeah dude, we're talking about you), it's good to see metal both given context and defended by Farber. He goes on to state that infamous music critic Lester Bangs termed the phrase "Heavy Metal" (taking it from a line in Steppenwolf's "Born to be Wild"), and that Deep Purple came in a close second, with In Rock coming out in July. He also says Judas Priest were the first band to really embrace the tag. Definitely check the article out, and feel free to proudly raise your horns to a genre that's likely old enough to be your dad.

If I turn it on and interrupt the normal start-up process it gives me the same message.
If I turn it on without the Jump Drive and interrupt the normal start-up process it says Operating System not found.
If I turn it on and interrupt the normal start-up process I get the same message.
I also presssed enter to stop the normal start up and then F1 for the Bios Set-up. I discovered that F12, if pressed at start-up, would allow me to choose where to boot. I selected USB drive and it said Invalid system disk, replace the disk and press any key.
Can anyone help me with this? I have the Windows key for the license associated for this computer. I just need to know how to get the software loaded onto the drive (and then hope it picks-up all of my drivers.

Anderson, Stephanie B. (2003) "Dropping the ball: Identity and EU sports policy". In: UNSPECIFIED, Nashville, TN. (Unpublished)
| PDF Download (1231Kb) | Preview |
Over the past ten years, some more integrationist-minded member's states, especially German and the Benelux have argued for a democratizing of the integration process. Without a European identity, the people will not come on board, and without democratic support for such a project, European integration will wither. The goal is to bring EU: decision-making closer to the average person and to foster a European identity. How does one manufacture, or perhaps more accurately, graft on a collective identity? Could the EU harness the passion and patriotism the public has for sports? A European sports policy may reduce the democratic deficit and increase popular support for the EU by fostering the creation of myth and therefore of a European identity.

There will be awesome tutorials and round ups to get you excited and ready for the holidays! Today Chrissy has a round up of 15 Handmade Ornament Tutorials.
On another note I finally finished a coat I've been working on for awhiel. I found this beautiful purple herringbone wool blend on sale and knew it would be perfect for a coat.
I used McCall's M6445 Coat Pattern. I really liked it, and it was easy except for the semi set-in sleeve part. I really like the cut even though it is oversized.
Instead of buttons and buttonholes I ended up doing plastic snaps. It worked because the coat isn't too thick. It was much faster than buttonholes, there was no hand-sewing, and I really like the look of it.I did a special technique for the lining that I'll teach you next week. I'm really excited to share it!

Ca$h Out Atlanta, Georgia
Atlanta has long outgrown the candied days of snap rap. The gritty southern city is swamped with players, hustlers, and true trappers. The music is an in depth reflection of such, and hip hop's newest Atl representer Ca$h Out demonstrates this to the fullest. His lyrical awareness and block banging flow exemplifies everything that should be highlighted within dirty south hip hop. ... more

The intensely popular Bien Cuit will launch a regular weekend pop-up shop at 439 Metropolitan Avenue in Williamsburg. The bakery's West Village shop and café — its second location — opened in late December, and now husband and wife owners Zachary Golper and Kate Wheatcroft tell Grub Street their third retail space will set up shop near the L train on Friday afternoons, then on Saturdays and Sundays, from mid-morning until the bread sells out. The pop-up will only sell the company's dozen varieties of bread, so while Bien Cuit's danishes and tarts won't be on offer, there will be many loaves, such as the bakery's take on multi-grain called "many grain," which up until now has only been available to its wholesale clients. Look out for that, the pugliese, and so many rounds of miche next month.

Intentional Inclusion by Sandra Cain - Oct, 2010 If leaders are not intentionally creating cultures of inclusion, then by default, they are creating cultures of exclusion. For years the term diversity seems to have taken the brunt of everything that is not good about working in organizations. The misinformation and disinformation attached to the word diversity are extraordinary. Diversity has been substituted for affirmative action, EEOC, artificial quotas and the cause... |
Leaders Behaving Badly by Dr. Linda Burrs - Oct, 2010 As a personal and professional coach, so much of what I have been hearing about lately has to do with leaders behaving badly. It seems time to address this issue from the perspective of millions of employees who continue to suffer injustices by these bad behaving leaders. It seems the positive aura of light surrounding leadership overall is going dim in many instances. Perhaps it is time to give voice to the many who work... |
Leadership that Transforms by Dr. Linda Burrs - Oct, 2010 In the eighties, Hasbro© began marketing and selling an original and innovative toy that changed shapes, functions, and missions upon command. These toys were a huge hit with children and some adults as they took regular toys like cars, trucks, and planes and transformed them into mission centric forms known as Transformers. Their slogan, "more than meets the eye" offered the idea that what was seen was not all there was. The... |
Make the Most of Your Mentoring Relationships by Judith Lindenberger - Oct, 2010 Mentoring is one of the best ways to learn, to get feedback, and to take your career to the next level. Here are ten tips for making the most of your mentoring relationships. Tip #1 Self-assess. Ask yourself, "What skills do I need to get where I want to go?" Tip #2 Identify your learning goals. Put them in writing. Tip #3 Decide together how the mentoring relationship will work - frequency and type of contact.... |
Online Sexual Harassment Training: A Wise Investment in Any Economy by Judith Lindenberger - Oct, 2010 Sexual harassment isn't fun. One man's – or woman's – idea of a compliment or a joke can start a mess of trouble that can cost companies big money. On January 9, 2006, the largest sexual harassment lawsuit ever, at $1 billion dollars, was filed in Manhattan against Dresdner Klienwort Wasserstein Services, the American branch of Dresdner Bank of Germany. The complaint cited lewd behavior toward women, entertainment of client... |
Play "20 Questions" to Develop a Successful Mentoring Program by Judith Lindenberger - Oct, 2010 Why do some organizations achieve great success in rolling out a mentoring program, while others achieve only a modicum of success? We believe that the companies that are most successful view corporate mentoring as an organic process, meaning that they understand that mentoring programs evolve and grow. Our experience demonstrates that the difference between mentoring success and failure lies in the ability to build capaci... |
What Business Can Learn From Doctors: It's All In How You Treat People by Judith Lindenberger - Oct, 2010 Recently, medical literature has caught up with conventional wisdom. People are less likely to sue doctors whom they believe have acted in their best interest and who communicate with them clearly and kindly. In plain English, doctors have discovered that good bedside manner is good business. This same principle holds true for the business—good bedside manner translates into sound risk management. A recent survey of... |
Workforce Diversity: Making It Work by Judith Lindenberger - Oct, 2010 The workforce demographics of the American workforce are a far cry from what they were 50 years ago, when more than half the American workforce consisted of white males who were the sole breadwinners in the household. Statistics show that as the Baby Boomers move into retirement fully 85 percent of the workforce will be comprised of women or minorities. The challenge that diversity poses involves how to manage this mixture of... |
3 Benefits of hiring someone overqualified by Dwain Celistan - Oct, 2010 In the marketplace, there are a wide range of candidates for open positions. As an executive recruiter and coach, there are times when someone is "over qualified" for the role. Many times, these candidates are not actively included in the pool or seriously considered. This is a missed opportunity. Potential candidates may appear to be over qualified based on items in the position specification. This can range from the a... |
4 Myths about Executive Recruiters by Dwain Celistan - Oct, 2010 Whether someone is in an active or passive employment search, executive recruiters or "head hunters" can play a vital role. These professionals are conduits to great opportunities for professionals. For many business leaders and up and coming professionals, using executive recruiters can make or break their next step up the corporate ladder. However, the role of executive recruiters is often misunderstood. Here are tips... |

Long Beach WellnessRead MoreThe team of certified colon therapists at LB Wellness conjures the magic of the Angel of Water system to help clients cleanse and detoxify insides. After a 15-minute consultation, guests sit atop the Angel of Water bed and relax as warm H20 gently flows through the digestive system, flushing out waste, toxic bacteria, and long-forgotten ingested scarves from summers at magician camp. After the 30–40 minute treatment, clients may reap the rewards of a more hydrated and sanitary internal-combustion engine.240 West Park AvenueLong Beach, NY US
Oceanside Wellness CenterRead MoreThe Oceanside Wellness Center contours away inches and tightens skin during quick, noninvasive Lipo-Light sessions. During the 30-minute treatments, LED light slips past the skin's outer defenses, targeting the adipose tissue that lurks just beneath. Stimulated by the light energy, these cells give up their fatty contents, which then vacate the body during normal lymphatic cycles. Microcurrent facial treatments help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, leaving skin smoother and softer. Customers may notice visible firming and contouring with less puffiness. This warm and inviting center also offers additional therapeutic services.9 Davison Ave. WestOceanside, NY US
Five Towns Heart ImagingRead MoreWith hundreds of locations across the country, Right Dental Group represents a collection of oral-healthcare professionals who deliver a variety of quality dental services. The collective places an emphasis on relationship building—meaning patients can confess their most egregious toffee-apple trespasses while receiving a teeth scrubbing delivered with precision and understanding. Each of the dentists is prescreened for a consistent record of excellence and the ability to efficiently locate a cavity in a toothstack. A skilled doctor and their staff will skillfully probe forgotten mouth corners, eradicating tartar and expunging plaque from bacterial lairs. The included x-rays will help uncover any oral problem areas that cannot be seen with the shamelessly naked eye. After treatment, clients will be privy to tips that explain the proper brushing and flossing techniques to ward off gum disease and tooth loss, ensuring tongue-stoppers remain firmly rooted to the rest of the skeletal system.650 Central AveCedarhurst, NY US
Five Towns Neuroscience ResearchRead MoreSince Dr. David Steiner, MD, opened Five Towns Neurology in 1999, he's built quite a reputation. Not only does the doctor run his own busy practice, he also heads the Peninsula Hospital Center's stroke and neurology clinics, directs a local Parkinson's group, and lectures on topics such as epilepsy. Having earned so much trust from the community and his peers, it made sense for him to start his own research division, which he christened Five Towns Neuroscience Research. There, researchers lead clinical trials on topics ranging from lower back pain to Alzheimer's. The center also provides physical therapy for patients suffering from a wide range of conditions.222 Rockaway Tpke Ste 1Cedarhurst, NY US
Dr. Olga Zilberstein, MDRead MoreDr. Olga Zilberstein, a board-certified physician, partners her medical expertise with extensive training in aesthetics. At her eponymous practice?a much slower-paced environment than the emergency room where she works as a clinical assistant professor?she puts her certification from the American Academy of Dermatology to work with a handful of aesthetic procedures. She administers skin-smoothing Botox injections, exfoliating chemical peels, and sclerotherapy, a treatment that softens the appearance of spider veins. Dr. Zilberstein continually updates her aesthetic education so she can provide her clients with the most modern and effective treatments.794 Caldwell Ave.North Woodmere, NY US

This doesn't surprise me in the least. My department hired an 'ex-Con' IT employee about a year after the merger and his stories about the post-merger bloodletting and chaos in the Continental IT department are kind of terrifying. United really dropped the ball when integrating the IT staff and they lost a lot of really good people from the Continental team mainly because they never bothered to learn what people actually did and what systems they maintained before swinging the ax or shuffling people to new assignments. A lot of the best people left ASAP when the chaos started, or were cut accidentally due to United's arrogance and incompetence.
It's anecdotal, of course, and might not be representative of the entire IT re-org following the merger. But given that we hired him from the former Continental HQ office in Houston I think his stories from the time are a fair indication of how the IT integration has gone across the board.

German diplomats in Washington are negotiating with the US for the release of a German-born man held for almost four years at the US detention camp in Guantanamo Bay, according to a government spokesman.
Murnat Kurnaz could be free shortly
Negotiations between embassy representatives and the US authorities in Washington started when the Chancellor Angela Merkel visited President George W. Bush last month, the German government source said.
Bernhard Docke, lawyer for the prisoner, Murat Kurnaz, 23, said Saturday he expected a result from the negotiations in the "near future."
Merkel and Bush in Washington on Jan. 13
According to an article to be published Monday in the German weekly Focus, Bush told Merkel he would free Kurnaz on condition that Germany give "guarantees of security," the details of which are now being discussed by German diplomats and government security experts. One of the conditions could be that German law enforcement authorities observe Kurnaz at all times.
Kurnaz, a Turkish national born in the north German city of Bremen, was arrested in 2002 by American forces in Pakistan, where he had moved in 2001. The German press nicknamed him "The Taliban of Bremen."
Transferred to the US prison camp in Guantanamo Bay under suspicion of terrorism, he complained to his lawyer a year ago of having undergone sexual humiliation by female soldiers at the detention center.
The German government hopes Kurnaz will be released by the summer, according to Focus.

Infrared radiance of the wind-ruffled sea
JOSA A, Vol. 16, Issue 6, pp. 1439-1452 (1999)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1481 KB)
The surface of the wind-ruffled sea contains capillary wave facets whose curvature is much larger than the wavelength of visible and infrared light. As a result, visible sea radiance consists of the sum of all the mirrorlike reflections of the sky and sun from each facet. In the infrared, additional radiance arises from blackbody emission by the facet and along the atmospheric path to the point of observation. Numerical calculations of mean sea radiance based on this model agree to within 1 °C with infrared data obtained in the long-wave band and in the short- and mid-wave bands outside the sun-glint corridor. If sun glint can be neglected, the spectral radiance of the ocean horizon is approximately given by the Planck function at the temperature of the ocean and lower atmosphere.

- In this paper the word "path" refers only to the optical path between the footprint and the receiver.
- Strictly speaking, the name "thermal" is misleading because the nonglint radiance does include scattered sunlight. However, scattered sunlight (which falls off with wave number) is not very evident in our data, so the term is descriptive for our purposes. The reader should nevertheless be aware that it might not be as appropriate a term in the short-wave infrared band.

Cumberland council picks Simpson, Wilson for SAD 51 board
CUMBERLAND — In separate votes Monday, the Town Council appointed John Simpson of Island View Drive and Peter Wilson of Oak Ridge Road to two vacancies on the School Administrative District 51 Board of Directors.
The new members, who will serve for a year, replace two former co-chairmen: Jeff Porter, who resigned from the board July 1 in a disagreement over the working relationship between the board and administrators, and Bill Richards, who stepped down July 8 because he was moving out of the district.
Bill Dunnett of Mulberry Lane, Tim Ferris of Turnberry Drive, Stuart Hill of Orchard Road and Brad Hilton of Blanchard Road also applied for the seats, although Hill withdrew from consideration prior to public interviews of the applicants Monday night by the Town Council.
During the interviews, Councilor Shirley Storey-King, who served as moderator, asked each candidate the same series of questions. The council later went into executive session to discuss the applicants.
After reconvening in public, councilors approved Simpson by a vote of 6-1, with Councilor Peter Bingham opposed. Wilson was approved 5-2, with Bingham and Councilor Michael Edes opposed.
Bingham said Tuesday that he favored applicants with more financial experience, and who offered more continuity to the School Board. He said he would have preferred the applicants be voted on as a pair, but since they were voted on separately, he voted no so as not to single anyone out.
"This was not a personal thing; it was just a philosophical thing," he said.
On the other hand, Storey-King said, "We were looking for somebody who's going to take their fiduciary responsibilities seriously, and these guys both have a strong background in finance. ... Plus they seem like very good communicators, so hopefully we can move forward."
Dunnett was the only applicant with prior School Board experience, although he did not seek re-election this year.
"With all respect to the current board members, I think that there's maybe a little bit of a void in terms of leadership on the board, and I think I can be helpful with the finance work that I've done in the past," he said Monday before the meeting. "Also I'd like to make sure that the board works well in the next year, and I would work hard at that as well."
Simpson, who has lived in Cumberland for 11 years, is married and has two young children. His background includes work in corporate finance, law and information technology, and he owns and manages a computer software business. As owner of MacImage of Maine, he has tried to establish a statewide, commercial provider of county records.
He has also coached student athletes.
"I am requesting appointment to the School Board primarily because I want to do my part to help our schools remain strong," he said. "... Educational expenses consume the lion's share of our tax dollars, and I want to make sure those funds are well spent."
As a School Board member he will not be a micro-manager, Simpson pledged, "but I will also not be a rubber stamp. It's no secret that this last year has been challenging for the School Board, and I think that that needs to change."
While divergent points of view are important and strengthen the board, he said, "members really must commit to working as a team to promote the common agenda of the school district."
Wilson has lived in Cumberland all his life, and he and his children attended Cumberland schools. He said he was trained as a certified public accountant.
"I've spent all my meaningful work life in the finance area, mostly on taxes," he said.
Education is "the most important thing that the town does," Wilson said. "And I'm very interested in ensuring ... that we provide what is beneficial to kids, and that we don't waste money in doing it."
The new appointees will serve until June 2014, when elections will be held to fill the final year of Porter's unexpired term and to elect a successor to Richards for a new, three-year term.

Norwegian Sun Cruise Review by DuaneO: Alaskan Glacier Journey
Member Rating
Compare Prices on Norwegian Sun Alaska Cruises
Alaskan Glacier Journey
Will be brief -- a back to back journey from Whittier Alaska and back, on The NCL SUN. This is our second/third cruise with NCL. This trip was excellent. No issues, nothing to report as to disappointments.
Our Inside stateroom was the largest yet. nearly 20 x 12 feet. Smallest shower to date. Room was well laid out and well taken care of Neat and very clean. Our cabin Steward was excellent.
We were on the 8th deck, so it was handy for all the various public areas. Only took minutes to get to them.
The first segment we had approx.2100 guests. You could see the difference from one week to the other. Mainly the food court and outside areas.
Very low amount of pushing of upcharge items. Only time I was approached was when we boarded and when we were in Glacier Bay. The rest of the time little to no daily pushing of up charge items. NICE!
We did have some minor issues regarding being a back to back cruise guest. They did forget paperwork and we More
had to remind them. Again no big deal.
The food was very good, not great. Basically we had the same menu twice since we were on the same cruise twice. But there were highlights and some nice touches. Several nights the menu would totally beat out the upcharge restaurants for quality and food types. So plan your nights.
The Garden Cafe basically is serving food 24 hours a day. There is a daily BBQ by the pool deck -- not bad!
The upscale restaurants; Italian was wonderful fun and worth the money. Great views and inviting. The French restaurant they can keep. I thought was not very good. And the Steakhouse was very good. The steak I had was tasty and correctly prepared. The side are smallish So you can ask for more no.
Bottom line NCL did a great job. The staff are great and super friendly. Not one sour puss in the crowd. The room was perfect size, the food met and exceed many of our expectations. The ship is clean and nice to ride in. Less

Cabin review: IA8328
Will ask for the same cabin again. Silence was the key word for this room. Never felt the ship. no bad noises and large. Bed was comfortable.
Port and Shore Excursions
Great little town worth getting off the ship Use the SMART bus $5 each person all day. Takes all over. Went to Jewel gardens $12.50 Each and walked around the gardens. Had tea and crumpets $16 for the two of us. Great time in that town.
Again shopping... This was the embark and debark for the first segment of the cruise.
As for embark and debark Whittier is a breeze. We took the train in and it drops you right by the terminal. In fact we were some of the first to arrive. When we left we took a tour and that was well worth it. The portage/wildlife bus tour.

When I think of April, I think of Spring, Easter, warm weather, pretty much anything but new homes. The housing industry thinks new homes are worthy of their own month for a couple of good reasons. There is a huge link between new home building and the health of the US economy. Historically, 17% of the Gross Domestic Product is tied to the new jobs and income, purchase of goods and services, and revenue for local governments generated by new residential construction. The employment effects are 50% in construction and 50% in other industries. The income earned is spent and recycled in the local economy. The bottom line is new homes strengthen the economy year round. I guess they can have April too.

Press Release
Thursday, April 29, 2010 - 3:30pm
(3BLMedia/theCSRfeed) NEW YORK, NY - April 29, 2010 - NYSE Euronext (NYX) and Corporate Responsibility Officers Association (CROA) released the results of a study they commissioned by SharedXpertise into the state of corporate responsibility. From surveys sent to companies listed on NYSE Euronext markets as well as other public and private companies globally, the more than 650 responses made this the largest sampling of corporate responsibility practices ever conducted.
The study assesses how well companies measure and report the hard data of their corporate responsibility programs. With this study companies can compare how they structure, budget, and plan their governance, sustainability, human rights, employee relations, and philanthropic programs.
"For corporate responsibility to make a difference and continue to attract time and resources, these programs need to demonstrate results," said Richard Crespin, Executive Director of the CROA. "Only by measuring and reporting hard data, will companies make a difference."
Key findings of this broad sampling include:
31% of companies report corporate responsibility enhanced profitability. Apparently you can do well by doing good. Only 0.3% indicated it decreased profits. The other 68% said they can't measure it.
26% can't measure corporate responsibility outcomes. Although 60% of respondents can measure goals around Environment, Health, & Safety, nearly 1/3rd can't measure anything related to the corporate responsibility programs.
42% have a designated Corporate Responsibility Officer or similar senior executive in charge. 62% have a formal function and 52% have a dedicated budget.
67% have a product or service that relies on a corporate responsibility message. That means more products and services rely on corporate responsibility than the Good House Keeping Seal of Approval.
Less than 5% slashed budgets for corporate responsibility programs. With profits on the line during the "Great Recession" 57% held spending steady, 19% increased it, and 17% decreased it but in proportion with other budget cutting.
"The results of this survey clearly demonstrate the increasing importance and growing relevance of corporate responsibility among our listed companies and other issuers," said Larry Leibowitz, Chief Operating Officer, NYSE Euronext. "It's also significant that those surveyed recognize that CR impacts brand, reputation, business decisions, and the bottom line."
SharedXpertise will conduct follow up interviews to gather more in-depth data and provide additional analysis for companies looking to improve. This year's results present a baseline and they survey will be conducted annually to track change.
