Jackie Robinson initially broke the color barrier from the farm leagues. But the big test came in 1947 when Jackie moved up to the "big show" and put on number 42 for the first time.
"Brooklyn announces the purchase of the contract of Jack Roosevelt Robinson from Montreal. Signed, Branch Rickey."
That morning turned into a press Donnybrook. The sportswriters snatched up telephones. The telegraph wires relayed the message to the sports world.
Less than a week after I became Number 42 on the Brooklyn club, I played my first game with the team. I did a miserable job. There was an overflow crowd at Ebbets Field. If they expected any miracles out of Robinson, they were sadly disappointed. I was in another slump. I grounded out to the third baseman, flied out to left field, bounced into a double play, was safe on an error, and, later, was removed as a defensive safeguard. The next four games reflected my deep slump. I went to the plate twenty times without one base hit. Burt Shotton, a man I respected and liked, had replaced Durocher as manager. As my slump deepened, I appreciated Shotton's patience and understanding. I knew the pressure was on him to take me out of the lineup. People began recalling Bob Feller's analysis of me. I was "good field, no hit." There were others who doubted that I could field and some who hoped I would flunk out and thus establish that blacks weren't ready for the majors. Shotton, however, continued to encourage me.
Early in the season, the Philadelphia Phillies came to Ebbets Field for a three-game series. I was still in my slump and events of the opening game certainly didn't help. Starting to the plate in the first inning, I could scarcely believe my ears. Almost as if it had been synchronized by some master conductor, hate poured forth from the Phillies dugout.
"Hey, nigger, why don't you go back to the cotton field where you belong?"
"They're waiting for you in the jungles, black boy!"
"Hey, snowflake, which one of those white boys' wives are you dating tonight?"
"We don't want you here, nigger."
"Go back to the bushes!"
Those insults and taunts were only samples of the torrent of abuse which poured out from the Phillies dugout that April day.
I have to admit that this day of all the unpleasant days in my life, brought me nearer to cracking up than I ever had been. Perhaps I should have become inured to this kind of garbage, but I was in New York City and unprepared to face the kind of barbarism from a northern team that I had come to associate with the Deep South. The abuse coming out of the Phillies dugout was being directed by the team's manager, Ben Chapman, a Southerner. I felt tortured and I tried just to play ball and ignore the insults. But it was really getting to me. What did the Phillies want from me? What, indeed, did Mr. Rickey expect of me? I was, after all, a human being. What was I doing here turning the other cheek as though I weren't a man? In college days I had had a reputation as a black man who never tolerated affronts to his dignity. I had defied prejudice in the Army. How could I have thought that barriers would fall, that, indeed, my talent could triumph over bigotry?
For one wild and rage-crazed minute I thought, "To hell with Mr. Rickey's 'noble experiment.' It's clear it won't succeed. I have made every effort to work hard, to get myself into shape. My best is not enough for them." I thought what a glorious, cleansing thing it would be to let go. To hell with the image of the patient black freak I was supposed to create. I could throw down my bat, stride over to that Phillies dugout, grab one of those white sons of bitches and smash his teeth in with my despised black fist. Then I could walk away from it all. I'd never become a sports star. But my son could tell his son someday what his daddy could have been if he hadn't been too much of a man.
Then, as I thought of Mr. Rickey - how his family and friends had begged him not to fight for me and my people - I thought of all his predictions, which had come true. Mr. Rickey had come to a crossroads and made a lonely decision. I was at a crossroads. I would make mine. I would stay.
The haters had almost won that round. They had succeeded in getting me so upset that I was an easy out. As the game progressed, the Phillies continued with the abuse.
After seven scoreless innings, we got the Phillies out in the eighth, and it was our turn at bat. I led off. The insults were still coming. I let the first pitch go by for a ball. I lined the next one into center field for a single. Gene Hermanski came up to hit and I took my lead.
The Phillies pitcher, a knuckle expert, let fly. I cut out for second. The throw was wide. It bounced past the shortstop. As I came into third, Hermanski singled me home. That was the game.
For his next two years with the Dodgers, Jackie Robinson did his best to withstand jeers from racist fans and players, intentional collisions and beanings, problems with hotel accommodations and a myriad of other racial slurs.
I though I had learned the worst there was to learn about racial hatred in America. The year 1949 taught me more. A black man, even after he has proven himself on and off the playing field, will still be denied his rights. I am not talking about the things that happened to me in order to portray myself as some kind of martyr. I am recording them because I want to warn the white world that young blacks today are not willing - nor should they be - to endure the humiliations I did. I suffered them because I hoped to provide a better future for my children and for young black people everywhere, and because I naively believed that my sacrifices might help a little to make America the kind of country it was supposed to be. People have asked me, "Jack, what's your beef? You've got it made." I'm grateful for all the breaks and honors and opportunities I've had, but I always believe I won't have it made until the humblest black kid in the most remote backwoods of America has it made.
It is not terribly difficult for the black man as an individual to enter into the white man's world and be partially accepted. However, if that individual black man is, in the eyes of the white world, an "uppity nigger," he is in for a very hard time indeed. I can just hear my liberal white friends and a lot of Negroes who haven't yet got the word that they are black, protesting such an observation.
The late Malcolm X had a very interesting comment on the "progress" of the Negro. I disagreed with Malcolm vigorously in many areas during his earlier days, but I certainly agreed with him when he said, "Don't tell me about progress the black man has made. You don't stick a knife ten inches in my back, pull it out three or four, then tell me I'm making progress."
Malcolm, in a few well-chosen words, captured the essence of the way most blacks, I believe, think today. Virtually every time the black stands up like a man to make a protest or tell a truth as he sees it, white folks and some white-minded black folks try to hush or shame him by singing out that "You've come a long way" routine. They fail to say that we've still got a long way to go because of the unjust headstart the founding fathers of this country had on us and the handicaps they bestowed on the red men they robbed and the blacks they abducted and enslaved.
Whites are expert game-players in their contests to maintain absolute power. One of their time-honored gimmicks is to point to individual blacks who have achieved recognition: "But look at Ralph Bunche. Think about Lena Horne or Marian Anderson. Look at Jackie Robinson. They made it."
As one of those who has "made it," I would like to be thought of as an inspiration to our young. But I don't want them lied to. The late Dr. Ralph Bunche, a true black man of our time, felt the same way. The "system supporters" will point to the honors heaped on Ralph Bunche. They will play down the fact that he and his son were barred from membership in the New York Tennis Club because of blackness. They will gloss over the historical truth that Mr. Bunche was once offered a high post in the State Department and did not accept because it would have meant Jim Crow schools for his children. Look at Lena Horne, they say. The show business world took this lovely woman and tried to make her into a sepia Marilyn Monroe. They overlooked her dramatic ability and her other talents and insisted that she be cast only in the role of a cheap sexpot. When she refused, they white-listed her out of the film colony. They point to her as a success symbol, but they will go easy on reminding you that she defied the United States Army when she was programmed to sing Jim Crow concerts for the black troops and separate concerts for whites and German prisoners of war in a Southern installation. Lena sang for the black troops only.
If a black becomes too important or too big for his racial britches or if he has too much power, he will get cut down. They will cut him down even when the power the black has doesn't come from the white man, but from grass-roots black masses, as was the case of Harlem Congressman Adam Clayton Powell. With all his faults, Adam was a man who rocked the establishment boat, and the establishment lynched him politically for it. I don't think anyone in or out of sports could ever seriously accuse Willie Mays of offending white sensitivities. But when he was in California, whites refused to sell him a house in their community. They loved his talent, but they didn't want him for a neighbor.
Name them for me. The examples of blacks who "made it." For virtually every one you name, I can give you a sordid piece of factual information on how they have been mistreated, humiliated.
Not being able to fight back is a form of severe punishment. I was relieved when Mr. Rickey finally called me into his office and said, "Jackie, you're on your own now. You can be yourself now."

County Public Works Director Kyle Zimmerman estimated that the Diamond Drive Phase III Project is 16 days behind schedule. As a result, cold weather may prevent finishing the final step, which would add an "open grade friction course," a treatment that helps tires grip the road and reduces the risk of hydroplaning.
At a County Council Work Session in White Rock Tuesday night, Zimmerman said there were several reasons for the delays: the contractor was slow to get started; there were unexpected traffic control problems; the contractor didn't anticipate the complexity of the underground utility system (because Los Alamos was originally going to be a temporary town, there were a lot of abandoned utilities underground); they had high rainfall during their working period; the contractor fired 11 people for a safety violation; and there were a few instances of vandalism.
Zimmerman hoped to avoid schedule-related problems by imposing a rule that future contractors must begin the project within a set time frame after the contract has been signed and by establishing progress milestones at the beginning of a project. But, he noted, the problem is that when he sets up restrictions, the price goes up.
The contractor has asked for $180,000 in additional compensation, and so far the department has approved $118,000.

EU court says hyperlinking doesn't constitute copyright infringement
The Court of Justice of the European Union has handed down a ruling this week that was an important one for the internet as we know it. The court was hearing a case that had to do with whether or not the act of hyperlinking to content online constituted copyright infringement. If the court had ruled that linking to content was in fact copyright infringement, it would have changed the internet in a fundamental way.

From the article: AFP, Triple Screen and Quad Screen Testing
The triple screen, quad screen or penta screen AFP testing is done between the 15th and 17th week of pregnancy. It can be used to screen for genetic problems like Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida and Anenecephaly. There are many false positives, which can cause worry beyond belief and lead to unnecessary intervention like amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS).
- Just rec'd AFP results showing at risk for neural tube defects 1/71 chance. I am going to complete a high resolution ultrasound on Tues, if results are good, I will not move further with the amnio. If results are suspicious, I will get the amnio. My first child has severe asthma and my second child has a high functioning autism. Third child is completely healthy to this point. We were looking forward to our last child and the risk of a potential life threatening problem really stinks!! Getting the call at work on a friday morning was horrible. Having to go through the weekend and wait til tues is horrible and may still not provide resolution. For women that did not get the amnio......were you constantly thinking and wondering about the baby? If you had a chance to do it again, would you?
- —Guest Christie mother of 3
Slightly elevated? thats a result
- I had all the blood work just got my quad screen last week at 18 weeks not even thinking twice that it would come back positive because i was so healthy 25 and everything up to that point was so normal. The mid wife called with the results saying that they were "slightly elevated without stating ratio and saying that i was in the lowest percentile for down syndrome but i would be recieving a call from a hospital within the week. Here i thought my biggest problem was figuring out if i have a boy or girl..to now ensuring that my baby is healthy and that we are prepared either way.The amino testing scares me as well if i were to find out my baby was ok only to be the 1/200 to miscarry because i needed to know. but im hopeful that the ultrasound will come back with good results and all this was a "false positive" and at least make us realize how much this baby means to both of us. Ill be praying every night either way all i care is this baby gets to live. Ill update yall good luck ladies
- —Guest worried but optimistic
Very worried
- I am 16 weeks pregnant and got the call yesterday that my test came back that my baby has a 1/180 risk of having spina bifda. I go tuesday for the genetic counseling and level II ultrasound, but I am so scared. I had two m/c's prior and I'm so worried that something is wrong! Has anyone gone thru this and test come out normal!
- —Guest Nicole
I wish I had not taken the test
- I didnt know much about this test so I did not even think twice about it... what a surprise when they called me and told me I have a 1 in 35 chance of having a baby with DS... I can explain to you how horrible that feels... right now I just have to wait a few more weeks until I can have an amnio and pray that everything is going to be fine. If I ever get pregnant again I WONT do this test...
- —Guest Caty
Freaking out
- I have a 4d ultrasound on the 12th because they said my child is at risk for DS....totally freaking out. Can't stop crying...why do they have to tell you this kind of stuff when they know you won't find out for a whole other week?
- —Guest KellyPhillips
Not quite sure what to expect...
- I am 41. I have had 3 successful pregnancies, one abortion, and one miscarriage. I am now pregnant with my 5th child. I've never had any complications during pregnancy, except for high blood pressure with my last live birth in 2009. I took my AFP test 2 weeks ago and I received a call from my doctors office today asking me to come in tom. I don't know what to do or think at this time. I had this test with all my pregnancies, but this is the 1st time I have ever been called into the office I really don't even know if that is what they are calling about, but it's all I can think of. I am just praying that I can deliver a healthy baby. This is my last one and my husband and I both have feeling of this being the boy that we both want so badly. I'll just stay positive and hopeful!
- —Guest Mother of 4
Just my opinion :)
- It's unbelievable to me that this test is as unreliable in 2012 as it was in 1994, when I had my youngest son. My daughter in law had this test after she had the ultrasound, in which the neck measurement was completely normal. She is 38, and her AFP test came back as her baby having a 1/68 chance of having Downs Syndrome. She has had the CVS done and results should be back in the next week. Both she and my son are worried sick, and they don't even want to talk about the baby. I too had an abnormal AFP test when I was 33 and pregnant with my youngest son. I had an amnio done, and worried constantly for 3 weeks until the results came back. My son was normal, but I think if I had it to do over again I would not have had the AFP test done. There seems to be such a high rate of false positives, and the stress of waiting for the amnio results is unbelievable. It's shocking to me that in the 18 years since I had the test they haven't improved or refined it any.
- —Guest Grandma
- Just received my quad screening results and tested positive for Trisomy 18. My boyfriend and I are scared to death! I am 39 and this will be my last pregnancy, we are hoping for a false-positive! I receive a level 2 ultrasound next week, please send prayers!
- —Guest Colleen
Positive afp
- I got pregnant at 16 and at 4 weeks my afp testing came back positive..i was worried to death but they did tell me it could be false but at my ultrasound I found out I was having a boy and that he had gastroschisis.I stayed strong and prepared myself and my son was a fighter and left the nicu at 2 months healthy as ever,you wouldnt even know if you saw him today!My advice to all of you moms, stay positive and love your child regaurdless!!
- —Guest Stay positive!
CVS done yesterday.
- My blood results come back that I have 1/100 risk of having a baby with DS, I am 14 weeks now and I found out this information last week. It's been a terrible week and a half. I had a CVS yesterday and my results are due tomorrow so fingers cross it all comes back fine. I read up a lot about CVS and yes I was scared to have it done but my God nothing scares me more then not knowing what could be wrong with my baby. The ladies out there who are scared to get CVS done don't be it wasn't really that bad and discomfort was nothing.
- —Guest Donna
- I'm in the medical field, but since it's my first pregnancy (I'm 33), I decided to go for the quad test. I requested my results and had a 2nd ultrasound done the same day. The results came back resounding negative for DS, NTD, Trisomy 18 but I just received a call (day after I had my ultrasound) and there is an abnormality on my U/S...which could be a sign of one of the trisomy syndromes..GAH! It's extremely frustrating, going for a level 2 U/S next week. If I'm having a hard time sorting this out with my background... darn it, I feel for those who have to just rely on their OB! I'm hoping my little boy is all healthy, but either way, he's my sweetpea no matter what. But I'd like to be prepared. I won't probably have the AFP done next time around.
- —Guest Anna
Quad test=stress
- I'm 20 years old and pregnant with my first child. I too took the quad test an got an abnormal test result. My risk was 1:197 it was no help that my doctor didn't do her job to inform me that the test has a lot of false positive I was worried sick for months! A week ago I had a level 2 ultrasound which showed no signs of down syndrome I refused the amnio because I'm going to love my baby regardless....next go around I know I will never take the test again. Just waiting for my baby girl to arrive May 1st
- —Guest Mommy 2 be 20
Spina Bifida
- I have spina bifida occulta and unlike some of the other moms with SBO who have posted, I have all of the problems associated with spina bifida and then some (tethered and split distal cord, disc degeneration, arthritis, stenosis, etc...). I NEEDED to know if my baby was going to have any neural tube defects. I have pain on a daily basis that most people could never imagine - I had to know if that was something we needed to prepare for with our child. Thank goodness, the AFP came back with no open neural tube defects detected. Of course I would not have aborted my baby if there was something wrong, but I felt that in order to be the best mother I could be I needed to know what we were up against. And if the news was bad, I needed to be able to do my grieving now so that I could be fully present, prepared and level headed when our little angel greets the world. Those were my reasons for doing the tests. Some people don't want to know, and that's okay too.
- —Guest Katie
2 positive results
- I had the quad screen done at 16 weeks. I found out it came back positive for trisomy18 and SLOS. I'm freaked out. I have level 2 us this Friday. I pray they are false positives!
- —Guest scaredmomma
I don't know what to do
- I'm 24 years old and have two beautiful children who are both healthy. I'm now due for my third child. My doc asked if I wanted the DS blood work done and I said yes I got it both times before so didn't think anything different about it. I got a call today well at work that I was at high risk of the baby having DS. I'm so scared I don't know what to do. I have to go see my doc tomorrow and talk things over with him, I know the blood work could always be wrong but what if it is not?

I agree with above suggestions.
Adding to above, also check this :
About using Backup Exec with Symantec Endpoint Protection
So, overall, when installing SEP and Backup Exec on the same machine, you would have take care of 2 things -
1) Ports used by both.
2) Make sure you have enough Memory on the server.
Hope that helps!!

Former Aston Villa striker Stan Collymore has urged Gabby Agbonlahor to resist interest from Arsenal and Manchester United and learn his trade under manager Martin O'Neill.
"If I was Gabby, I'd stay put and wouldn't be lured by the odd little newspaper story that links him with Arsenal or Man United," he told the Birmingham Mail. "I'd like to see him getting his goals under his belt at Villa, and then get his caps under his belt and see where it goes from there.
"He's got outrageous pace and his goalscoring record is decent.
"I'd still like to see him getting in around the box and developing his game, a la Michael Owen with his finishing.
"Pace gets you away from somebody, but you then need the coolness of Adebayor, van Nistelrooy or Ronaldo.
"That's where he needs to take the next step. Martin will take him aside and get him to look at the game. But he's in a fantastic position at 21."

"Wiiitis" and "Blackberry Thumb" are on the Rise
Villanova, PA (Vocus) September 16, 2009 -- While technologies such as Blackberries, Wii and Laptops have added convenience and entertainment to many people's lives, they are also creating an influx of overuse injuries in many adults and children. Many physical therapy clinics, like Excel Physical Therapy and Fitness in Villanova, PA, have seen an increase in patients with overuse injuries as a result of technology.
"People are addicted to their handheld devices, and both adults and children are seeking medical treatment for their pain," Says Valerie Brill, PT, OCS, clinic manager of Excel Physical Therapy and Fitness. "Daily use of computers, phones, PDAs and video games can cause pain, swelling and repetitive strain to the musculoskeletal system, because the body was not designed for this type of activity."
Other symptoms of technology addiction can include carpal tunnel syndrome, tingling of the hands and fingers, neck pain, back pain and eyesight strain.
Overuse injuries from technology are not just limited to adults. Children are also spending more time using handheld communication devices and computers. However, while adults typically use a computer sitting at a desk, children often work on the computer in different postures, such as sitting on the bed or lying on the floor.
"Many of these postures cause extreme strain on the neck as kids look at the screen. Low back pain is also common from being unsupported while they play," says Brill. "The medical community at large i

2007 Kia Amanti Problems
The accelerator position switch may fail intermittently resulting in sluggish acceleration or lack of power.
Reprogramming the transmission control module with the latest Kia transmission software may fix abnormalities in the automatic transmission and erroneous transmission-related Check Engine Light illumination. Software updates are commonly most effective on newer vehicles. Higher mileage vehicles may exhibit a similar symptom caused by a component failure. However, whenever major transmission repairs are performed the transmission software should be checked and updated as necessary.
A defective AC compressor clutch assembly can cause excessive noise or vibration when the air conditioning is on. Improved parts are available. Replacing the faulty clutch assembly does not necessitate replacement of the complete AC compressor or evacuation and recharging of the air conditioning system.
2007 Kia Amanti Questions
theres shows a bolt holding it on but im not seeing one and I know I have the right pulley.
I have had to replace both headlights within the last year or so. Now one has blown again. It does not work on either low or high beam. One of the smaller lights next to the headlights is also out. What could be causing this?

A week from Sunday, the NFL game of the year to date will air on NBC's "Sunday Night Football." Using its "flex" protocol, the league shifted the Chiefs-Broncos game from 1:05 p.m. on CBS to 5:30 p.m. on NBC.
Meanwhile, next week's "Monday Night Football" matchup on ESPN features one of the NFL's two winless teams, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Only three times in the past nine weeks have both MNF combatants had records of .500 or better.
Considering that it doesn't have a flex option and pays twice as much as NBC for NFL rights – $1.9 billion vs. $950 million annually, according to reports – it would seem ESPN is getting a raw deal. Not so, according to industry analysts and Bristol sources.
"Even a bad matchup is the highest-rated program of the week for ESPN," said sports-media consultant Lee Berke, the president and CEO of LHB Sports, Entertainment & Media Inc.
"It's great TV programming compared to other events that are out there. It succeeds regardless."
Despite a run of lousy matchups – including the unwatchable Vikings-Giants game on Oct. 21 – MNF is averaging 13.4 million viewers, up about 1 percent over last year.
Because the ratings are so robust, NFL games are the most valuable currency available to TV networks. ESPN receives the highest subscriber fee of any cable network – in excess of $5.50 per month, according to reports. It's doubtful ESPN could charge that much without its MNF package.
Although the lack of flex scheduling is a source of frustration at times at ESPN - think of a quarterback being unable to check out of a bad play - I'm told network executives generally are content with what they have. ESPN's agreement with the league enables the network to use NFL content on roughly 30 programs besides MNF. The only network with more NFL programming is the league's own.
The NFL introduced flex scheduling in 2006 for Weeks 11-17. It's not coming to MNF anytime soon.
"While there is a history of changing game times on a Sunday for years … flexing a game to a different date … would inconvenience everyone involved in our game – the fans, the teams, the stadium staff," league spokeswoman Joanna Hunter said. "In 2011, we renewed our broadcast deals into the next decade, and the ability to flex games from Sunday to Monday is not part of the renewed agreements, nor is it something we are looking at."
The MNF schedule does improve after Week 10. Upcoming matchups include Patriots-Panthers on Nov. 18, Saints-Seahawks on Dec. 2 and Cowboys-Bears on Dec. 9.
"Sunday Night Football" is the highest-rated show in prime time, averaging 21.6 million viewers, and the Chiefs-Broncos game could exceed Broncos-Colts for this season's most-watched SNF matchup. It'll certainly deliver a bigger audience than the originally scheduled Packers-Giants game would have.
Like several other media outlets, including the San Francisco Chronicle and Sports Illustrated's "MMQB" website, the Orange County Register has decided to discontinue using the nickname "Redskins" in reference to Washington's NFL team.
Said Register sports editor Todd Harmonson: "We examined the issue and understand that, to many, Washington's nickname is deeply offensive. It is the Register's policy to avoid using such slurs, so we will not use this one, except in stories about the controversy surrounding its use."

Kent State Unveils Details of 90Ksu PlanPosted Jun, 17, 2010
Department begins proactive effort to raise the profile of Golden Flashes football
When Joel Nielsen was officially introduced as Kent State University's 11th director of athletics in late March, he articulated that one of his first goals was to put an increased emphasis on the Golden Flashes' football program.
He backed that bold statement up less than two weeks later with the hiring of Executive Associate Athletic Director Thomas Kleinlein from Arizona State University to head up the administration of the football program. The process took another step forward with the unveiling of the "90Ksu: Everyone Counts" initiative.
Already charged with meeting the NCAA-mandated attendance goal of 90,000 tickets sold for the season (an average of 15,000 per home game), Kent State is revamping the way it approaches football.
"I've said from day one that football is going to be a priority and the NCAA already had its attendance requirement in place, so we decided to take both notions and turn them into one campaign," Nielsen said. "We're embracing the NCAA number and seeing how far we can run with it.
"This isn't just about selling tickets though," Nielsen continued. "This is about improving the fan experience, about making Dix Stadium a destination six times each fall. We want students, alumni, our faculty and staff and the community as a whole to be actively involved in and take pride in Golden Flashes football."
The far-reaching plan includes everything from placing an increased emphasis on marketing, to creating a game day atmosphere that starts with a completely new tailgating experience, to making a trip to Dix Stadium not only affordable, but memorable and fun.
"I have a vision of parking lots filled with tailgaters, Dix Stadium packed with fans wearing their blue and gold and little kids running around on the field after a Kent State victory," Nielsen said. "We're going to do everything we can to make that vision a reality."
To learn more about the program and for updates throughout the summer, visit www.90Ksu.com.
Kent State, which returns 49 letterwinners and 20 starters from last year's team, kicks off the season in Dix Stadium at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 2, against Murray State. The Oct. 9 Homecoming clash against local rival Akron will begin at 3:30 p.m., while the remaining four home games will all start at 2 p.m. (10/30 vs. Ball State; 11/6 vs. Temple; 11/13 vs. Army; and 11/26 vs. Ohio).
Golden Flashes 2010 football season tickets are available for as low as $30 for the six-game home slate (a $90 value). Call 330-672-2244 for more information.

Every now and then, we come across special adoptable pets that need a little extra help finding a home. This week, we're shining our Adoption Spotlight on Kissy, Jack and Janet—a trio of playful Akitas who are sure to make their future adopters very happy!
Kissy, Jack and Janet came to the ASPCA after being rescued by the Oregon Humane Society from a large, commercial breeding facility. Their life in the facility had left them terrified of human contact, so they were sent to the ASPCA Behavioral Rehabilitation Center in Madison, New Jersey. Over their four-month course of treatment, each dog's sweet and special personality began to shine through. At the Rehab Center, they learned how to enjoy everyday activities like going for walks, being pet, coming when called and—most importantly—trusting humans again. Now these loving pups are ready to find their forever homes:
Kissy is a curious 5-year-old girl. She may be shy at first, but don't let that fool you—this pretty lady would love nothing more than to play with you and her favorite squeaky toys! Kissy likes to play with other dogs and would be thrilled to go home with a patient adopter who can love and care for her.
Looking for a goofy, but clever, new best friend? Jack is your guy. This sweet boy loves going for walks and playing with his favorite toys. Jack loves his dog friends, but may need some training to help improve his manners.
Janet is an energetic girl who loves snow and zooming around a fenced yard! She can be reserved around new people, but this curious girl will warm up for walks through the woods with her new family. Janet likes other dogs and would love to go to a household with a dog friend she can play with.
These sweet dogs have been through a lot and they have so much love to give. They would like nothing more than to find forever families to call their own. If you're interested in adopting or want to learn more about Kissy or Jack, please visit www.bigeastakitarescue.net or call (609) 388-7004. For more information on Janet, please visit www.sammyshope.org.
Roxy is a very friendly cat who loves her favorite people. This sweet girl may be shy when you first bring her home, but don't let that fool you! With the help of some yummy treats and her favorite toys, she'll be asking for plenty of snuggles in no time.
Roxy likes to have your attention all to yourself and would prefer to be the only cat in a quiet household. This pretty lady has a medical condition that requires a special diet, but our Adoptions team can give you tips on how to manage her health needs. Adopt Roxy today!
Roxy is available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center. If you are interested in adopting Roxy, please call our Adoptions Department in New York City at (212) 876-7700 ext. 4120. To learn more about Roxy, please visit her profile page.
Watch the video below to check out Roxy in action at our Adoption Center!
Every now and then, we come across a special dog who needs a little extra help finding a home. This week, we're focusing our Adoption Spotlight on Dash, a friendly 4-year-old pup who is ready to find his forever family.
Dash came to the ASPCA in April 2014 after being rescued by the New York City Police Department (NYPD). Over the course of the past year under our care, Dash has become a staff favorite and has bonded with many of our Animal Care Technicians (ACTs). This lovebug is currently thriving as a foster in the home of ASPCA Veterinarian Dr. Jasmine Bruno, but he is eager to find a "forever home" to call his own.
Dr. Bruno reports: "Dash is an incredible dog who I would say is the perfect definition of a 'gentle giant.' All he wants is a companion that will give him the same amount of affection that he gives non-stop. He gets along great with cats and loves meeting new people and dogs, although he can be a little shy at first. His perfect day at home would consist of spending time sleeping on his favorite pillow, gnawing on his bully sticks, going for nice long walks in the park and playing with his rope toy."
If you're interested in adopting Dash, please call our Adoption Center in New York City at (212) 876-7700 ext. 4120. To learn more about Dash, please visit his profile page.
Curious pup Otis leaves no stone unturned! This inquisitive guy loves to sniff around and explore his surroundings—there's nothing he'd like more than a Saturday by your side roaming Central Park. This funny guy will keep you laughing with his playful antics, but, like most city dwellers, he's in a rush to get to where he's going!
At times, Otis will bark to let you know he wants something and may be protective of his food, but our Behavioral team is available to give you tips on how to control this behavior. Otis would do best in an adults-only household with an experienced adopter who can give him lots of exercise and playtime. Adopt Otis today!
Otis is available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center. If you are interested in adopting, please call our Adoptions department in New York City at (212) 876-7700 ext. 4120. To learn more about Otis, please visit his profile page.
Can't adopt right now? Do the next best thing and consider making a donation to the ASPCA.
Check out Otis in action as he plays with one of his friends from the Adoption Center!
Olivia is a sweet and social cat who would love to be your new best friend. This pretty lady loves attention from her favorite people, but prefers it on her own terms—let her sniff your hand, and once you're friends, she'll happily let you scratch her head and face.
It may take Olivia some time to adjust to her new home, but with the help of some yummy treats and her favorite toys, she'll start to relax in no time. Although she likes affection, Olivia prefers not be picked up and is sensitive to touch around her stomach and tail. This sweet girl would like to be the only cat in the household and would do best with an experienced adopter familiar with feline body language. Adopt Olivia today!
Olivia is available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center. If you are interested in adopting, please call our Adoptions Department in New York City at (212) 876-7700 ext. 4120. To learn more about Olivia, please visit her profile page.

Youth Sports Concussion Law Takes Effect
Student athletes who show signs of a concussion must be removed from games immediately under a law that takes effect Monday.
As The Michigan Public Radio Network's Jake Neher tells us, the state will also have to educate coaches, parents, and student athletes about head injuries.
State health officials plan to roll out a new education and awareness program this week. They say the most important part of the new law is raising awareness about the dangers of multiple head injuries – especially in young children.
Amy Teddy is with Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor. She says the new law seeks to educate entire communities about how to protect kids.
"This is really not just about coaches," she says. "This is a shared responsibility of anyone that has an invested interest in student athletes."
The new law reflects standards already used by the Michigan High School Athletic Association. Schools have until the end of June to fully implement the new requirements.

Facebook plans low-key, albeit belated, bash for 10th birthday
Published on Feb 4, 2014 11:19 AM
SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) - Facebook has grown into an Internet giant over the last decade, but it is celebrating its birthday with a low-key, belated party and an eye toward the future.
While the arrival of its 10th anniversary on Tuesday has pundits analysing the social network's past and theorising about its future, the Internet juggernaut is trying to stay focused on the job at hand.
"Just as we do every year, we will have an internal party on Friday afternoon," Facebook spokesman Arielle Aryah told AFP in response to a query regarding the company's birthday celebration plans. It remained to be seen whether the Menlo Park, California-based social network, which now boasts over a billion users, had something playful planned for its actual anniversary on Tuesday.
In an earnings call last week to discuss stellar quarterly results, Facebook chief and co-founder Mark Zuckerberg gave a nod to the growth seen during the past decade but focused on the future.

Rosin EyecareRead MoreIn 1930, Dr. Joseph Rosin and his brother, Maurice, opened a small shop on Cermak Road in Cicero. In 80 years, the shop has grown from a small family-run optometrist's office to a regionally renowned business that has sharpened the eyesight of celebrities such as Joe DiMaggio and Plácido Domingo and left its mark on the Chicago area by designing famous symbols such as Harry Caray's trademark glasses and the novelty shades that adorn the John Hancock Center. Today, Rosin Eyecare rests in the hands of the third generation of Rosins, ably helmed by brothers James and Jonathan, who continue a proud tradition of warm, personal service as they improve eyesight with high-tech LASIK and PRK treatments as well as stylish eyeglasses with scratch-resistant lenses. At 16 locations, including the newest office Long Grove, a staff of optometrists keeps optical orbs in high function with comprehensive exams, treating each patient's individual needs with products such as a contact-lens implant or a prescription safety eyewear.6233 Cermak RdBerwyn, IL US
Pearle VisionRead MoreSince Dr. Stanley Pearle opened the doors to the first Pearle Vision in 1961, the franchise has expanded to more than 800 stores nationwide. In these stores, optometrists assess the ocular health of patients before onsite opticians help them navigate the assortment of frames from brands such as Versace, Ray-Ban, and DKNY. If clients would like to schedule an appointment they can click here. Pearle Vision also helps focus the world with contacts from Acuvue and Biofinity.7222 W Cermak Rd.North Riverside, IL US

In these stores, optometrists assess the ocular health of patients before onsite opticians help them navigate the assortment of frames from brands such as Versace, Ray-Ban, and DKNY.

Pearle Vision also helps focus the world with contacts from Acuvue and Biofinity.904 W North AveMelrose Park, IL US
Diabetic Eye Centers of AmericaRead MoreUsing experience garnered while earning a doctorate in optometry from Indiana University, Dr. Toni A. Reising enhances and maintains ocular health at Diabetic Eye Centers of America, Inc. In addition to offering primary eye care for infants, children, and adults, Dr. Reising places emphasis on treating patients with diabetes. During comprehensive eye exams, Dr. Reising scans iris gardens from front to back while reading ocular blood vessels, which display signs of bodily wellness and after-images of secret diaries. With the help of an advanced eyewear laboratory, Diabetic Eye Centers of America, Inc. outfits patients with specialty lenses and frames by designers that include Calvin Klein, Kenneth Cole, and Elizabeth Arden. The center also crafts custom sunglasses, allowing patients to spend hours reading the fine print written on the sun.512 W Burlington AveLa Grange, IL US

Beyond basic services, including eye exams and contact lens fittings, the team is equipped to handle foreign-object removal, LASIK, and cataract consultations—for which they also co-manage the scheduling of surgeries and follow-ups. Upon having their vision corrected, patients will notice that the vision center has another side to it—a medspa. Here, practitioners administer Botox and other cosmetic injections, as well as laser treatments for vein therapy, hair removal (Oak Brook location only), and anti-aging facials, which can help clients go back and land the starring role in their middle school's rendition of Annie.2528 N Harlem AveElmwood Park, IL US

09 Aug How To Make Your Imprint As A Fashion Blogger
by ATFDC Contributor Barbara Collins
Over the last several years, people all over the world have been creating blogs with hopes of making a profession out of their talent and to gain popularity. Blogs are one of the fastest-growing means of mass communication and has radically transformed the world of fashion journalism. Famous fashion bloggers like Bryan Grey and Tavi Gevinson are amongst the many bloggers who have caught the eye of people like Anna Wintour and have appeared on the front rows of New York and Paris Fashion Week! With the potential to receive free products, meeting celebrities, and even money why wouldn't anyone want to start blogging?
If you want to be known around the blogosphere, here are a few tips from Elizabeth Fassbender Co-Founder of DC's Capital Area Fashion & Beauty Bloggers (CapFABB) to help you on your journey!
- Create a blog that people want to read. If you create good content, the readers (and increased attention) will come. Be consistent! And as an extra tip, when you do get more attention and people asking things of you, remember it is ok to say no! It's hard sometimes to turn things down, especially at first, but it gets too overwhelming otherwise!
- Embrace what makes you a bit different. You want to have a point of view.
- Promote your blog! Create a Facebook page and a Twitter account if you haven't already.
- Post as often as you can. Once your followers see that you take long breaks in between your post, they will stop coming to your blog. More posts, more followers!
- When starting out connect to other bloggers and your readers. Visit other blogs you admire, leave comments, think of ways you can collaborate, and/or join an area blogger network (like CapFABB). Attend events when possible, and don't be afraid to reach out.
- As cheesy as it sounds, the most important thing to remember is to do it because you love it. If you love what you do and stay true to your voice you'll be much more successful than if you are less authentic.
Elizabeth Fassbender is the creator of "So Much to Smile About" a blog that catalogs her inspirations: beautiful photography, street style, fashion, and design trends, events, editorials and personal experiences. She is also the co-founder of CapFABB a group created to give DC Metropolitan area fashion and beauty bloggers a place to communicate, collaborate and meet.
Barbara is a sophomore at Old Dominion University, majoring in International Studies with a minor in Fashion Merchandising. She also writes for CocoKouture Magazine and would love to pursue a career in the fashion industry as a writer for a top fashion magazine

Based on suggestions on the internet, I figured that the output of the 555 timer is connected to one pin of the coil of the DPDT relay through a diode and the other pin of the relay coil goes to ground. Is this correct? But when I am physically connecting the output of the timer to the relay (whether through a diode or not), something strange happens. The relay switches on as soon as the output of the timer goes high but after that it remains switched on and the output of the timer also remains constantly high. I have checked the relay a (Embedded)

NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development has honored several staff and partners across the state for their innovation and initiative in providing career services to veterans. Federal law requires performance awards to encourage the improvement and modernization of employment, training and placement services for veterans and to recognize eligible employees for excellence in the provision of such services or for having made demonstrable improvements in the provision of services to veterans.
Tennessee Department of Labor & Workforce Development Commissioner James Neeley presented a certificate to Tom McCann of the Upper Cumberland Career Center along with 31 other Career Center staff members from across the state.
Neeley commented at the ceremony, "This honor is about the cooperation of Labor & Workforce Development staff and our partners in the Tennessee Career Centers across the state. We anticipate this recognition will spur staff members, individually and collectively as a local office, toward creative solutions to the problems encountered by veterans in their quest for significant employment."
The staff honored at the ceremony were singled out for the following criteria: priority of service to qualified veterans and other eligible persons; fostering an environment of teamwork and cooperation in the local office; initiative in efforts to assist hard-to-place (homeless, recently separated, disabled, minority, and female veterans) populations; improving the system with performance; reduction in time or cost; and promoting collaboration in support of employment and training opportunities.
The following is a complete list of staff members honored from across the state.

In Lebanese camp, fears over Palestinian divisions
EIN EL-HILWEH, Lebanon Palestinians in Lebanon's largest refugee camp are watching the dispute over power between Hamas and the Palestinian president with dismay, fearing it will only make their dream of one day returning home even more distant.
They also fear the tensions could spill over here: The refugees in the densely populated, impoverished camp are as divided as their fellow Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and West Bank between the Islamic militant Hamas and the Fatah movement of U.S.-backed President Mahmoud Abbas.
The two rivals – along with smaller factions – have long carved out separate territories in Ein el-Hilweh's neighborhoods and some districts are no-go zones for members of rival groups. The camp is notorious for shootouts among armed factions over the years.
Hani Hourani, a 29-year-old vegetable vendor in Ein el-Hilweh, does not see a bright future.
"As long as we are divided how are we going to go back" to Palestine, he said. "If we can't reach agreement in small Gaza how are we going to go back to a nation whose leaders are in dispute? So that we kill each other?"
Hourani said both sides are playing with the Palestinian people. Abbas follows an American agenda, he argues, and Hamas wants to go with the Iranian vision.
"We are in the middle. We want to go back, but do what? How can we agree on the basis of a state, if we can't live together in Gaza," Hourani said.
Hassan Youssef, a refugee who was born here 51 years ago, said he sees the chances for a homeland dwindling.
"The dream of returning is always in our thoughts and on our minds, every hour of the day," said Youssef, who runs a metal workshop. "I believe if there is unity it will (happen). But with the disputes it will become more distant, for sure."
In Ein el-Hilweh, in southern Lebanon, some 70,000 refugees live in a cramped shantytown about a square kilometer (0.4 square miles) in size. It's one of the biggest of the more than 30 camps in Lebanon, Syria and Jordan that house the families of Palestinians who lost their homes in the 1948 and 1967 wars with Israel.
The camps frequently reflect the tensions brewing in the Palestinian territories.
In 2007, Hamas took over the Gaza Strip in fighting that largely drove out Fatah supporters. Israel's 22-day war on Hamas in Gaza has heightened tensions between the Islamic militant group and Abbas' Fatah, even as Egypt and other Arab countries try to push them into reconciliation.
The struggle for dominance is evident the moment you step into Ein el-Hilweh. At the camp's entrance, a large poster proclaims the Palestine Liberation Organization, which is headed by Abbas, as "the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian People." A PLO gunman on a checkpoint waves cars through after they are thoroughly checked by Lebanese troops who ring the camp. But nearby is a faded picture of Fathi Shakaki, the slain founder of Islamic Jihad militant faction, which is allied to Hamas.

The Libertines know this. NME knows this, which is why the UK music magazine issued both a "Pete" cover and a "Carl" cover this summer, to keep the drama smoldering. If it were Shannon Hoon sitting on his tour bus, watching the bee girl rapidly diminish in the rearview mirror with nary a hummable hook on the horizon, we'd merely yawn. But because the Libertines are talented, they're getting free passes. Then they're dousing their free passes in kerosene and waving them over a roaring fire. And they won't burn for very long.
In July, in an effort to soldier on, Barat made a compelling promotional appearance for The Libertines at a marketing firm in New York, with only his guitar and a broken heart. A few weeks later he returned (minus Doherty, unless you count Doherty's image on his T-shirt) with a full band in tow. I wanted to cheer, but was left with the feeling one might get seeing Paul Revere and the Raiders at Float-Rite with only one original member (the tambourinist) left. If it was 2038, Doherty's absence would have been fine. If a pause is necessary to keep the band and its members alive, record or no record, then please, lads, pause.

You invite an Irishman on your show and the first thing you do is feel the need to talk to him about British people, call him British and, even when he implies 'let's not go there', you explain to him that he's British. Uhh, nice.
Does Ciaran Hinds ever get a chance to rest? He has to be the hardest working actor in show biz, as well as one of the best.
It was funny when Leonard asked why it's a limited run, and the actors' ensuing awkward answers. Read yesterday's NYT article about how Hollywood stars call the shots on Broadway revivals and production schedules. It reveals the real reason why "Cat" got revived, again, now.
Most of those Southerners were of Scots-Irish ancestry, originating from northern Ireland, so it is hardly surprising that present day Scots-Irish could accommodate to the Southern accents so readily.
But there is no question, that all those Brits are taking American acting jobs! And Australians too!

SPOKANE A deer sighting in the Inland Northwest? Not uncommon -- but we don't usually see them bolting through Downtown Spokane.
That's what an STA bus driver saw Wednesday morning. Three deer in area near 1st and Wall streets. (Note to reader: this is where it starts to get sad). One of them leaped over a wall, and plunged 30 feet to a courtyard below. Fish and Game employees reached the animal and found it bleeding with a broken leg. They determined the deer to was too injured to rehabilitate and will have to be put down.
The other two deer apparently made it out of the area.
