CLARKS SUMMIT â?? The Borough of Clarks Summit Police Chief Officer Joe Laguzzi, 41, of Clifford Twp. officially received the oath of office Jan. 2. He was sworn in at the regular monthly meeting by Mayor Harry Kelly. Councilman Roy Davis motioned the appointment of Chief Laguzzi and it was seconded by Councilman Herman Johnson.
With the beginning of the new year, the council was required to appoint and reappoint members of committees and employees of the Borough of Clarks Summit. Council President Gerrie Carey motioned to approve committees, but after questions were presented by Johnson, the council agreed to table all committee positions until further notice.
â??As a council person, I think that we should have work sessions and discuss the reappointment of other people. We have not discussed anyone but the chief of police. We should sit down and talk about the reappointments of people,â?ť Johnson said.
Johnson said that council advertise for the positions. Borough Manager Virginia Kehoe said that she spoke to everyone involved with committees in November, and they all expressed interest in reappointment. At that time the list was made available to council members for review.
In other business, council recommended a contribution of 3 percent from the police for the Police Pension Board resolution of 2013, which is the same as last year. The remaining 2 percent would be paid by the borough. Councilman Jenkins approved the resolution and it was seconded by Johnson.
The council moved to discuss parking tickets and the area near Bedford Tower Apartments located at 400 Bedford St. People are parking on streets and the borough is unable to plow. Johnson questioned whether the street was a snow emergency route and the fire trucks are able to get through. Chief Laguzzi suggested the use of a tow tag which would constitute as a warning placed on top of a parking ticket. After five days, if the vehicle has not been moved, it would be towed. No decision was reached. The topic will be discussed at a future meeting.
In old business, the council discussed the parking meter ordinance. Before making any decisions as to whether to relocate current meters or purchase new meters, council members will invite George Carros, who maintains Clarks Summit meters to attend a work session with recommendations.
At the meeting Feb. 6, council will discuss a letter of recommendation sent by LJ Milo Enterprises, Inc. regarding a land development plan. According to Borough Manager Virginia Kehoe, the plan is to build a new CVS on the property located on the corners of State Street and Winola Road. This would adjoin the Donna Buranich and LJ Milo Enterprises, Inc-owned properties. If the CVS is built, there would be storm water changes that might alleviate some minor flooding that currently affects the property, according to council.
Starting this month, Clarks Summit Borough will offer a parking permit, according to Borough Manager Virginia Kehoe. This pilot program was suggested by retailers/businesses and their employees in the downtown. Passes are intended to make parking close to their business more convenient and affordable. Recipient will pay $30 per month. The program is designed to be business/retail friendly, however landlords and tenants may benefit as well. Parking permit recipients are required to be mindful not to park directly in front of a storefront/business that is not their own. Side streets and end of the blocks are suggested.
The parking permit, once purchased, is to be displayed on the dashboard of the driverâ??s side of the vehicle registered. It must be visible at all times. Purchased monthly, the permits are color coded to correspond with each month.
Permits can be purchased at the Borough Office, 304 S State St, 2nd floor, open Mon. â?? Fri. 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Permits are valid from the 15th to the 15th of each month.

Bengals revive season, beat reeling Giants 31-13
The best game of Andy Dalton's career saved the Cincinnati Bengals' season, ended their four-game losing streak and provided a chance to get back into playoff contention with a strong closing run.
Things aren't so upbeat for the defending Super Bowl champions. Sure, the New York Giants are still in first place, but their trend is definitely down.
Dalton threw a career-high four touchdown passes - each to a different receiver - for a 31-13 victory Sunday that left the Bengals revived and the Giants reeling.
The Bengals (4-5) knew they had to win the game to have any realistic chance of making it to the playoffs.
Now, they get to play Kansas City and Oakland the next two weeks with an opportunity to get back over .500.
The odds are still against them, but the win over New York (6-3) kept them in it for at least a little while longer.
''To beat the defending Super Bowl champs is a big deal,'' said Andrew Hawkins, who had the second of the Bengals' four touchdown catches. ''The NFL has great parity. This was a great example of it. Today we played extremely well. Spirits were high.''
The Bengals were spirited leading up to the game. Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Green told a New York sports radio station that the Giants ''have a lot of holes'' on their defense, which has given up a lot of big plays.
Some of the Giants were miffed. Safety Antrel Rolle said he'd let his pads do the talking during the game.
Rolle gave up one of the four TD passes, and the Giants were pretty much out of words to describe their all-around worst showing of the season.
''Just a little subpar from what we're used to,'' said Victor Cruz, who had three catches for only 26 yards. ''I don't know how to explain it. I don't know what's going on. I don't know what's wrong.''
It's starting to feel familiar. Last season, the Giants also opened 6-2, then dropped four in a row. The Giants won three of their last four to reach the playoffs, where they got hot at the right time.
''Obviously we know that last year we went through a tough stretch and we were able to come out and win some games when we needed to, get back in the mix and make the playoffs,'' Eli Manning said. ''We still have the lead in the division now.''
The Giants remain ahead of Dallas (4-5) in the NFC East, but head into their bye week with a lot of problems. The most puzzling ones involve the offense, which was one of the league's best the first six weeks but has fallen apart.
Manning threw for only 125 yards - his lowest total in four years - during a sloppy 24-20 loss to Pittsburgh a week ago. That showing could be excused after the Giants spent their preparation week dealing with the fallout of Superstorm Sandy.
There was no explanation for this one. Manning threw two interceptions in the third quarter that set up Cincinnati touchdowns, and the Giants had four turnovers in the second half. Plus, Cruz dropped a potential touchdown pass while the Bengals pulled away.
''That's what won the game for us, getting the ball with great field position and scoring when we got down there,'' said Dalton, who was 21 of 30 for 199 yards without a sack or interception.
Manning was 29 of 46 for 215 yards with no touchdowns, a season-high four sacks, the two interceptions and a fumble.
''I still believe Eli will bounce back and will play the way that he has played, at a championship level,'' Coughlin said. ''I certainly don't quite understand where we are and why.''
Manning couldn't uphold the family legacy of beating the Bengals. A week earlier, older brother Peyton led the Denver Broncos to a 31-23 win in Cincinnati, improving to 8-0 career against the Bengals.
Even though he got a scouting report from his brother during the week, Eli couldn't pull it off before a less-than-capacity crowd of 56,614. He fell to 1-2 career against Cincinnati.
''No, I'm not worried,'' Manning said. ''Over the years, we've gone through stretches where we haven't played our best football and we've been able to bounce out of that, and that's what's going on right now.''
The Giants' defense also has big issues. Cornerback Corey Webster let Green run past him along the sideline on the game's fifth play, thinking a safety was behind him to help. Wrong. Green was wide open for a 56-yard touchdown that proved Green's point.
Right away, he'd found a huge hole in New York's defense. The Giants have given up 39 passes of 20 yards or more, 10 for touchdowns.
''Their defense is great,'' said Green, who had seven catches for a game-high 85 yards. ''We were able to break some big plays.''
NOTES: The home team has won every game in the series, which the Bengals lead 6-3. ... Giants WR Domenik Hixon left in the first quarter with an ankle injury and didn't return. ... It was the first time this season that Dalton didn't throw an interception. ... Green has a TD catch in eight straight games, tying T.J. Houshmandzadeh for second-longest streak in Bengals history. ... There were nearly 9,000 unused seats at Paul Brown.

Georgetown's NCAA hopes take big hit from Nova
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Georgetown's bid to make the NCAA tournament took another hit on Saturday, and the Hoyas now will likely need a deep run in the Big East tournament to have any chance qualify.
Darrun Hilliard scored 19 points to lead No. 6 Villanova to a dominating 77-59 victory over Georgetown, preserving the Wildcats' hopes of a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.
Markel Starks scored 20 points for the Hoyas (17-13, 8-10), who are in jeopardy of failing to make the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2009. D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera added 14 points and Aaron Bowen had 13 for Georgetown.
The Hoyas are the No. 7 seed in the tournament that starts Wednesday night.
"We'll put all of our energy into getting ready for that first game," Hoyas coach John Thompson III said. "We'll have to play better than we did today, significantly better."
Against Villanova, Georgetown struggled with turnovers (18) and foul trouble (23).
"We have a small margin of error," Thompson III said. "We had some unnecessary, unforced turnovers. We tried to claw back in it and claw back in it. We had some missed opportunities. We've had several games where our post players have been in significant foul trouble. It's more harmful for us when our guards are in foul trouble because we depend on them so much."
Starks, who entered averaging a team-best 17 points per game, had three fouls with 6:40 left in the first half when the Wildcats took control.
Bell's four-point play with 49.8 seconds left in the half gave Villanova its largest lead of the period, 42-27. Bell had 11 points in the half for the Wildcats, who shot 52 percent from the field and 57 percent from the arc in the opening 20 minutes.
Bowen had nine points before the break to pace Georgetown, which battled foul trouble in the first half. Jabril Trawick also had three fouls before the break.
Villanova upped its advantage to 20 points when Arcidiacono made two 3-pointers on consecutive Villanova possessions to give the Wildcats a 55-35 lead with 13:02 remaining.
The Hoyas never got it under double-digits the rest of the way.
"We forced a lot of things we shouldn't have," Smith-Rivera said. "They were being aggressive defensively and that caused turnovers and caused us to force certain things we shouldn't have."
The Hoyas will look to rebound with a strong performance in New York.
"Now we have to focus on the Big East tournament, that's the only thing we can do," Trawick said.
The 18-point win marked the largest margin of victory for Villanova in a Big East game between the teams.
JayVaughn Pinkston added 13 points, and James Bell and Ryan Arcidiacono had 11 apiece for the Wildcats (28-3, 16-2), who won their sixth straight game while tying the 2005-06 team for second-most wins in program history. Villanova's 16 Big East wins are the most in school history.
"I don't try to predict our record but if someone forced me to, I never would've predicted 28-3," coach Jay Wright said.

McDermott Lands Two Rig Repair Contracts (Mexico)
McDermott International, Inc. has been awarded contracts to refurbish and undertake rig repair work at the McDermott Altamira fabrication facility in Tamaulipas, Mexico.
The two jack-up rigs are the Friede & Goldman L-780 Mod II design and will undergo significant improvement work to re-instate them to ABS classification. This will include steel hull, piping, machinery, and electrical renewal, as well as blasting, painting and commissioning support. Work is scheduled to begin in the last quarter of 2012.
McDermott's Altamira fabrication facility offers an ideal location to accommodate rigs and semi-submersible hulls with its expansive 1,640-foot quayside, water depth of 41 feet and less than three nautical miles tow distance to the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.

McDermott Bags Offshore Installation Gig in U.S. GOM
McDermott International, Inc. announced today that one of its subsidiaries has been awarded a contract by the Discovery system for offshore facilities in the Gulf of Mexico. The value of this contract is included in McDermott's second quarter 2012 backlog.
Williams Partners L.P.owns 60 percent of the Discovery system and operates it. DCP Midstream Partners, LP owns the other 40 percent of the Discovery system.
The project is to deliver new junction facilities for Discovery's Keathley Canyon Connector™ pipeline system with a 3,300-ton, four-leg platform in 350 feet of water. The unmanned platform will provide pipeline junction facilities for incoming deepwater pipelines from the Hadrian South and Lucius fields and for outgoing shallow-water pipelines to shore.
Fabrication is expected to commence this summer at McDermott's Morgan City facility in Louisiana. Offshore installation is expected to commence during the third quarter of 2013, and is intended to be ready for operational start-up before the end of the year.
McDermott's deepwater combination heavy lift and pipelay vessel DB50 is expected to perform the installation. The DB50 has recently undergone extensive enhancement to its power and propulsion systems, and has a new deepwater lowering system.

The agent of AS Roma midfielder Jeremy Menez admits his future remains clouded.
The Frenchman has been linked with a summer switch after apparent interest from a number of clubs inside and outside of Italy.
"There is nothing new to tell," agent Alain Miglaccio told calciomercato.com. "By the end of the week I will have spoken to the player about the situation.
"I haven't heard from the Roma officials and I haven't spoken with any other clubs either – that includes Paris SG and Inter."
Menez was eyeing a move after a disappointing second half of last season once Claudio Ranieri resigned.
"He wanted to leave while Vincenzo Montella was there because he wasn't playing," added Migliaccio.
"However, things have changed with the arrival of a new Coach."

Letter to the Editor: City drops ball in communication
Ron Moyne
City drops ball in communication
On Tuesday, July 31, it was reported by the city way after the fact that a water main had burst on the North side of Wichita Falls. It directly affected 300 or more households for nearly twenty-four hours.
I applaud the city workers who labored through oppressive heat to get the pipe repaired, and life sustaining water restored to the citizens. However, I cannot be so generous with my praise for the Public Works Department and the City Public Information Office. A TRN reader added a comment to the article reporting the break, stating that he had reported this problem as far back as Monday, and that the "water people" could not find the problem at that time. Although an emergency response team was later dispatched as quickly as possible from Fort Worth with a replacement section of pipe, the citizens went completely unaware of what was happening.
Residents inquired about low water pressure to TV-6. Once reporters gathered all the facts, TV-6 ran an informational crawl across the screen. Later on the late news both stations reported the broken main to inform the public. Unfortunately this information was given to them late in the evening, and broadcast too late to reach everyone. Households with children, working folks in bed early and retirees found out the hard way on Wednesday morning that they had no water. Showers could not be taken, toilets could not be flushed and the simple act of drinking water was not about to happen.
If the heat had knocked out the power it could have turned into a double catastrophe. If the drought conditions had started a wild fire, fire fighters would not have had water to put it out. The Public Works and Public Information Office once again dropped the ball. Citizens would have been better served and better prepared had they been told about what happened, soon after it did happen. This slow informational process is unacceptable, and a better plan for this kind of emergency should be put into place before a broken pipe turns into a major disaster in the future.

India works to salvage sub as PM laments deadly accident
Published on Aug 15, 2013 11:48 AM
MUMBAI (AFP) - Indian divers and engineers struggled on Thursday to salvage a submarine that exploded with 18 crewmen on board, as the prime minister voiced "deep regret" over the accident which is feared to have left no survivors.
The fully armed INS Sindhurakshak, returned by its original manufacturer Russia earlier this year after a major refit, went up in flames at a Mumbai dock on Wednesday and sank.
Divers opened the main hatch on Wednesday and were seeking to secure two water-tight compartments before pumping out water to raise the diesel-powered vessel.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, addressing the nation in the traditional Independence Day speech at the Red Fort monument in Delhi, lamented the tragedy which represents a major setback for the rapidly modernising navy.

Angelic Devil
How can one be so angelic,
dare me to drive? dare me to frolic?
Slash the wrists with a love that's so hellish.
Behind is a beauty,
dare me to look? dare me to cook?
I could put it in the oven but I'd need a book.
The front is so perky,
dare me too stare? dare me to rare?
I want to caress it with an amazing affair.
The face is so naughty,
dare me to kiss? dare me to experience bliss?
With x-ray vision I see through her mess.
Dare me to love so violently and abusively that the world cannot be nice enough to admit me,
to an asylum of cupid wherein the true pestilence lies and with a key I can be free

Corretja vs. Coria
Wow! What a great first round matchup we have on our hands. I think, in all honesty, that we will see Corretja win this meeting of clay masters in a TOUGH, epic three set match. Since he has recieved a WC to this tournament, Alex will be playing with alot of a fire to prove the tournament directors right. Maybe Guillermo will still be feeling the effects of those kidney stones. If Alex can win this match, it might turn his career around the right way again!!! VAMOS ALEX!! Win this one!!! What are your guys thoughts?
Coria to win for mine.
If Coria is heallty, he can win this match in his sleep.
Coria is a clay court specialist, plus he weighs about 35 lbs. He chases down everything. He has a perfect drop shot. If he is healthy, it's going to be 6-3,6-1
Are you guys raving lunatics. Are you and I thinking of the same Alex Corretja who reached the French Open Finals twice, won Rome on clay, and has won multiple clay-court titles? The same Corretja who was once no.2 in the entire world.?The same Alex Corretja who won the longest grand slam match all-time? The same Alex Corretja with the deadly one-handed backhand and the awesome personality? Man show this guy respect!
I've changed my opinion. Alex in straight sets, 6-2, 6-4.
Also the same Alex Corretja who has not been of any significance whatsoever in any meaningful tournament for 2~ years?
I guess the French Open semis in '02, the titles in Kitzbuehel and Gstaad in July of '02 don't count then, obviously. I mean who cares about the French semis? Pshh, you Felder could OBVIOUSLY reach them....
At least when Phil is rude he's usually amusing.
It's kids like you with your witless posturing and general weirdness, that have turned this board from a source of enlightenment and amusement into a yawnfest.
Can't you find something else to do?
what are you people talking about here? Corretja plays Ferrero in the first round of Monte Carlo. Not Coria. Coria plays Enqvist.. at least he did the last I looked at the draw.
Fat Boy,
I am fairly young but I don't ruin these boards do I? im just wondering if I am under the teenagers list?
just curious.
Anyway If its Coria then I want Corretja, but if its Ferrero then it's my man Ferrero all the way!!!! Come on Juanqui!!!!
I'm sorry, I fail to see how pointing out a player's obvious, significant decline in results over the last year or two in arguing his future results constitutes "childish" behavior. Corretja has been a non-factor on the ATP for a while now, he got married, and he hasn't done much... perhaps a few in '02, I don't keep a record book in my head. I know he virtually did nothing in '03, posting a losing record and not having any significant results. Therefore, I don't see him beating a young, tenacious clay courter like Coria or Ferrerro. Very childish of me.
Many apologies if I offended Liam and Don.
I was only referring to the person whose post immediately preceded mine.
Ah, ok. Glad you cleared that up :)
Yes,Correct for sure!!!!!!!
Respect for one of the greatest...
Sorry guys it is Ferrero. But Alex ones Juan-Carlos.
Ferrero plays Corretja first round? It's over for Alex, sorry.
Corretja used to be a warrior, but he's done now. Stick a fork in the guy.
Geez, this was too easy - you could almost see it coming. The minute the TW boards declare someone "done," there is a 95% chance he will walk out and pull off a great win. Nice work - Corretja has always been one of my favorites.
Let the "JC wasn't himself" whining commence...
Dayum. These words are pretty tasty!

The Dakshina Kannada Cooperative Milk Producers' Union Limited (DKMUL) launched four new Nandini products and one litre curd packet at the 58th All India Cooperative Week celebrations that commenced here on Tuesday.
The new products are 200 ml bottle of chocolate flavour milk priced Rs. 15, 200 ml of kokum fruit punch at Rs. 10, 200 grams of khova at Rs. 52, and 180 grams of diced paneer at Rs. 40. The one litre curd packet has been priced Rs. 28.
The DKMUL said the chocolate flavoured milk targets youth who have a liking for flavoured and healthy milk. The kokum fruit punch, which is a mixture of kokum fruit juice and milk whey, will be a good energiser. These two products have a shelf life of three months. The new 180-grams diced paneer will be an addition to the 200 gram and 1 kg packets available in the market.
The new products will be available with 1,200 odd dealers and 18 Nandini parlour outlets in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts.
DKMUL president Raviraja Hegde Kodavur said these new products were among the value-added products launched to increase the revenue for the milk producer/farmer. "The profit we earn from these products will help in increasing the amount paid to the farmer," he said.
Mr. Kodavur said the union was producing 2 lakh litres as against 3.5 lakh litres of milk required.
The union had been getting milk from neighbouring milk unions to meet the shortfall. He said loans should be offered for dairy activity in the district.
The State Government should encourage rearing of cows. He sought transport subsidy for procurement of dry grass from the neighbouring States.
Karnataka State Cooperative Federation President G.T. Deve Gowda commended the work of Karnataka Milk Federation. . He said the products of the KMF are the best and are of great demand in the country.

Today's chart is of iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond (TLT) which seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Barclays U.S. 20+ Year Treasury Bond Index.
Ticker: iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treasury Bond (TLT)
What I Am Looking At:
- Recently cleared the 0 percent year-to-date level, which can act as support/resistance
- Also, cleared the significant round number $120 level
- Broke out from the 10-month long descending channel (shown on chart)
- Cleared all moving averages displayed on chart
- $122-$124, major zone for volume by price, could act as resistance
- Nearly 59 percent of the float is sold short
- More than 3 times as many put options remain open relative to call options which is an extreme in bearish bets on TLT shares
- During the past 50 days nearly twice as many puts have been bought to open versus calls which could provide a tailwind for shares on an unwind situation

They will establish a solid foundation that works for what you want today and one that is equally ready for what you may want in the future. Many of our customers maintain longstanding relationships with their dealers—turning to them to add more automation to their home over time.
There is no universally right or wrong dealer for everyone. Your neighbor may have a Control4 system in a home that looks nearly identical to yours, but that doesn't mean your lifestyles are the same, nor does it mean you need the same Control4 system—or dealer.

The right dealer will be the one you choose who helps you design the system that works for you.
While a Control4 home automation system will be easy for everyone in your house to use, its actual design is quite complex, linking multiple devices in your home to make it possible for them to communicate over a network. This is the kind of work that requires a professional—an authorized Control4 dealer. Certified by Control4 after rigorous training, your dealer is there to support you and your system every step of the way.
Fill out the form below and we will provide you with additional info about dealers in your area.
The above dealers have completed the Control4 dealer certification requirements, including training in the Control4 technology.

A histogram estimator of hazard rate may not be as appealing as in the case of density estimation, nevertheless it still provides an easy to compute estimator which is simple enough to display and summarize failure time data. Surprisingly there is no investigation into the properties of the simple histogram estimator of hazard rate. In this article we study its mean square error properties and discuss the choice of bin width.

If you skip that first paragraph, Condoleezza Rice gave a great speech
- By Daniel W. Drezner
Daniel W. Drezner is professor of international politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University and a senior editor at The National Interest. Prior to Fletcher, he taught at the University of Chicago and the University of Colorado at Boulder. Drezner has received fellowships from the German Marshall Fund of the United States, the Council on Foreign Relations, and Harvard University. He has previously held positions with Civic Education Project, the RAND Corporation, and the Treasury Department.
Based on my Twitter feed — and the act that it's true — former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice gave far and away the best speech of the 2012 Republican National Convention to date. As someone who had the privilege of taking courses from Dr. Rice, this makes me personally very happy. As someone who likes to see the United States vigorously participate in an open global economy, I thought her emphasis on trade and immigration were spot-on. And as someone who thinks the term "loyal opposition" has meaning, I thought Rice did an excellent job of not criticizing President Obama directly but nevertheless drawing interesting contrasts between Obama and Mitt Romney.
So it was a great speech — so long as you skipped the opening paragraph:
We gather here at a time of significance and challenge. This young century has been a difficult one. I will never forget the bright September day, standing at my desk in the White House, when my young assistant said that a plane had hit the World Trade Center – and then a second one – and a third, the Pentagon. And then the news of a fourth, driven into the ground by brave citizens that died so that many others would live. From that day on our sense of vulnerability and our understanding of security would be altered forever. Then in 2008 the global financial and economic crisis stunned us and still reverberates as unemployment, economic uncertainty and failed policies cast a pall over the American recovery so desperately needed at home and abroad
The problem with this paragraph is that, vague language aside, it reminds the listener that two of the three greatest negative foreign policy shocks of the last decade happened while Rice and the GOP ran the executive branch. Oh, and the third is Iraq, which also happened on their watch.
Whatever foibles and errors the Obama administration has committed on foreign policy — and they've had a healthy share — nothing they have done has been remotely close on the clusterf**k scale to the events Rice mentions in her first paragraph.
Once you skip that, though, it really is a great speech.

Pune: After five hours of agitation and intense pressure from the angry parents, the school management finally signed a letter to the police asking them to lodge an FIR against the negligent school principal and director, who allegedly hushed up the matter for months. The management also agreed to a 14-point charter of demands set by parents which include lady attendant per bus, police verification of all bus employees etc.
A parent, Sher Mohammad Khan, told dna, "We met police commissioner Satish Mathur who assured us of all help and appreciated our efforts. The victim was asked to leave the school and based on our demand that she should get free education till Class 12, the school assured us to readmit her and provide her free counselling and bus services."
Another parent Neeta Kumbhar said one teacher indirectly threatened her saying that her son is in Std XII and such protest can harm his future.
The drama got escalated as school children became part of the agitation rather than going to the classrooms. The teachers warned them not to be part of the stir but the students questioned the teachers saying, "Why was our sister (victim) not consoled and instead treated so badly?"
As teachers were tongue-tied, students raised slogans "We want safety, we want justice" and "Principal ko jail mein, bacchi ko school mein."
School does not have PTA
Pune: Parents of children of the school where an 11-year-old was raped by the bus attendant complain that the school does not have Parent-Teacher Association (PTA). Due to this, the parents of the victim did not know whom to approach.
Following the complaints of parents, deputy director of education has instructed the education officials in the city to check the status of the PTAs in all the schools.
Deputy director of education Suman Shinde however said that it is the responsibility of the parents to go and check with the school on why PTA meetings are not conducted.
One of the parents Padma Acharya said that her daughter and son are studying in the school for the past five years.
"After this incident when I came to the school, I met other parents and had the PTA existed in the school, we would have been meeting more often," she said.
Chandrakant Kshirsagar, father of another student, "I do not know about the PTA. However, I used to inquire about it, the school used to give reply that there is no such thing existing in the school."
While speaking to dna, Shinde said that she has instructed all the education officials to take the review of the PTAs in the school. "It is the responsibility of the parents to insist that the school forms PTA so that if there are issues related to the fee, transportation, etc. it can be resolved in the meetings."
Director of Education (Primary) Mahavir Mane said that it was not mandatory for the schools to have PTA, however since the Fee Control Act is passed, there is a provision in the act that there should be PTA in the school as the decision on school fee will be taken after the PTA's approval.
Chairman of the school M N Dixit said, "We have got the notification from the authority and in a month's time we will form the PTA."
Protests give victim a new ray of hope
Pune: After the initial apathy by school authorities, the 11-year-old sex abuse vicitim told dna that the protests carried out by students and parents in support of her has given her a new ray of hope. She said that people will now believe her story and stand by her.
She is happy that a few of the class teachers have chosen to speak in her favour, despite a few of them having maligned and questioned her character.
"I was shocked to learn that one teacher said that I am mad and characterless. I didn't know what the words meant. I immediately looked them up in the dictionary to understand what she was trying to say. I felt very disheartened after that. But as other parents started protesting for me, for the first time, I saw my parents feeling hopeful. That makes me very happy. Though I am discouraged by my principal's actions, I still believe that my class teacher and two other teachers at least will speak the truth."
Some want to withdraw kids, others say no to school bus
Pune: Rattled by the 11-year-old girl's alleged rape by the school bus attendant, some of the angry parents on Monday said they will withdraw their kids from the school while a few others said they won't send their children by the school bus. Despite the school management's promise to scale up safety measures, the parents were in no mood to listen to their hollow assurances.
A 16-year-old student of standard XII said, "It's very shocking to know that the school management failed to act despite the girl's family informing them about the sexual abuse several times. I study in junior college of the same school. I came to know that the school asked the girl's parents to take her leaving certificate, which is very unethical. Since my father is from the defence background, we cannot be associated with an institution that has no no moral values and hence I plan to withdraw my admission from the college."
A parent Anoop Sethi said, "I am a woman and can understand the parent's pain for their daughter. Why has the school stooped to such a low level? If the school cannot stand by the victim then why should we send our children to this school? Until I am not satisfied about the safety of our kids, I have taken a decision to drop and fetch my daughter and her friends to school."
Two other students of standard XII said, After the incident, our parents are worried of sending us to college. They did not send us for the past three days. Later, we assured them that we will go safely and on Monday they took a decision that we will not travel by school bus and they have arranged private transportation for us."
14-point agenda
After a mutual decision, the school and parents have drawn conclusion on 14 points:
- RTO norms should be followed
- Lady attendant must be present in the bus and the appointment must be made by school
- Police verification of school bus drivers, helpers and attendant must be done
- School bus must display phone numbers of police stations
- Formation of Parents Teacher Association (PTA) in a month's time
- A suggestion on each floor of school
- GPS system in the school bus
- Nodal agency for transportation facility
- No more buses on hire from accused Pathan
- All absentees/changes must be informed to parents
- Executive committee meeting three times per year
- General PTA meeting twice a year
- Bus fees should be collected by school
- Transparency in bus facility and student-related issues

Re: And the fastest browser is ... IE8 :)

IE6 was introduced in 2001, and at that time, it was an excellent browser. Microsoft introduced XmlHttpRequest, and gave birth to modern AJAX technologies (yes, Microsoft basically invented AJAX).
Take any other browser from 2001 and no modern 2009 website will work in it. IE6? Not always 100%, but it can cope with most of them.
Let's face it: IE6 from 2001 was so good people are still using it in 2009. That is not true of any other browser.
IE7, launched in 2006, was innovative as well - great UI, especially. With IE7Pro and Roboform is it a solid browsing and user experience.
IE8 has excellent core, microformats, indepedent threads for tabs (Microsoft introduced it before Google Chrome).
So, why some people hate Microsoft browsers? First, there is ActiveX. Great technology which makes it possible to run basically any code on your machine, which had also serious security implications (non IT-educated users clicking on "Allow" all the time, letting code that can do anything in). Second, there was a big gap between IE6 and IE7 launches, which made room for other browsers (namely: Firefox).
Firefox was slow, did not have ActiveX, UI was written in extremely slow XUL, did not even have proper name (remember Phoenix and Firebird?), but behaved similarly like IE6, and it was not from Microsoft. So people installed it. If you remember Firefox 1.0, it basically copied IE6 looks, tabs were an afterthought (stolen from Opera anyway), and poorly implemented. Still, there were no ActiveX controls, so people could not click on "Allow" and they (falsely) believed Firefox to be safer.
Now, IE8 is the best choice without any doubt. But latest Safari 4 looks promissing as well though.
it's partially true imo.
many of the sites i have developed (all private internal sites for DB management and what not) have had very minor issues with IE.
is that IE's fault? no, it's mine lol.
but IE is not as lenient as FF when it comes to HTML tags and spacing.

The top row shows what the reigning Masters champion will wear if weather at Muirfield remains sunny and mild, as predicted for the rest of the week. The bottom row includes backup for foul weather. Scott relies on a simple palette, and I like his conservative choices. Classic always works in golf style, and Adam Scott can make simple look fabulous.

Bibi's story: Judaizing Israel and causing independence to disappear
The greatness of Netanyahu's story is that between Holocaust and independence, he dismantles Israel's independence and causes it to disappear.
Text size
One of the most empty of clichés is "Benjamin Netanyahu doesn't do anything." Actually, Netanyahu does a lot − more than any prime minister since David Ben-Gurion. Netanyahu is changing Israel. Completely. The mistaken cliché comes from the dictatorship of the "brass tacks philosophy" that has emerged in Israel and hides the simple truth: The...
