text: WICHITA - A scam that masks dangerous problems with used cars for sale is on the rise. Around 800,000 cars across the country are part of an illegal business practice called "title washing." That means a scammer will take a car that's deemed a total loss, also called a salvage title vehicle, fix it up, alter its documents and then sell it to a buyer without disclosing that information. Premier Auto Sales is one of about 50 Better Business Bureau accredited car dealerships in the Wichita area. KAKE News spoke with Premier Auto Sales General Manager Andrew Chapman who says part of that good standing is following the law when it comes to salvage titles. "There has to be an "ST" on the window, which means salvage title. And if you're selling a salvage title car, you have to tell the customer the time of the purchase and you have to make them sign an agreement stating that this is a salvage title car on your contract," Chapman said. For people who don't buy from a credible source, they might not receive that same honesty. KAKE News spoke with Denise Groene with the Better Business Bureau. "What these scammers will do is get a hold of that title. Jump around from state to state, apply for a new title, and then basically the paper trail gets lost. So when they apply for that new title, the word "salvaged" isn't on there, and they can sell it and make it look like this car is a good, clean, used vehicle," said Groene. Groene says down the road, customers could lose thousands of dollars and put their lives at risk if the car starts to fail. She says the best way for drivers to protect themselves and their pocketbooks is to look up the vehicle's VIN number at carfax.com. It's a service Chapman also stands by so he and his customers are ripped off. The BBB says this kind of fraud often pops up after there's a natural disaster, like flooding, when a large number of cars are damaged beyond repair.

GMC Launches Degree Completion Program
Green Mountain College announced last week that it is launching a new online undergraduate degree completion program, a Bachelor of Science in Business. The program builds on GMC's strengths in online learning and national leadership in sustainable business. Students will have the choice of two concentrations: entrepreneurship and sustainable business leadership.
"We have a lot of expertise developing rich online content for students," said William Throop, GMC provost. "The fundamental strengths of the new program will be grounded in the same educational experience our residential students receive including small classes, close mentoring by knowledgeable and committed faculty members, and career opportunities that result from joining an active and well-connected learning community."
Voices Plenary Speaker Peter Forbes
Peter Forbes, co-founder for the Center for Whole Communities, will speak Tuesday, April 9 at 7 p.m. in Ackley Auditorium as the College's Voices Plenary Speaker. Forbes is a social entrepreneur and an advocate for the relationship between people and the land, from remote Nepal to the American Rocky West to Central Harlem, N.Y. The title of his talk is "Toward a New Environmentalism; Building Whole Communities."
The Center for Whole Communities is a place-based leadership development organization devoted to bringing together people who care about the planet with people who care about our communities. As a result of Forbes' efforts, more than 2,000 citizen and career leaders from 50 states have been trained in a unique learning process inspired directly by the Martin Luther King's inspiration for "beloved communities" where different leaders come together to solve increasingly complex problems.
In 2004, Forbes was hired by the Kellogg Foundation to convene, for the first time ever, farm and restaurant workers and labor rights activists with policy experts and food security advocates. In 2010, Forbes came to Flint, Michigan, to develop a unique program using story and personal narrative to help former General Motors assembly line workers imagine and create a new city. He is beginning new work to foster more understanding and healing from within our nation's public lands toward the indigenous people who were removed from those lands.
Forbes describes his personal journey this way: "I have come to see how I am an edge walker, one willing and able to keep feet in different worlds in order to share perspectives."
This event is free and open to the public.

Thomas L. Benson Lecture on April 18
Green Mountain College will host Dr. Alan Goldberg as speaker at the College's annual Thomas L. Benson Lecture, Thursday, April 18 at 4 p.m. in Ackley Hall. Dr. Goldberg is professor of toxicology and founding director at the Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. He was a co-author of the important Pew Commission report on industrial farm animal production.
The title of his address is "Animals, Food, Food-Animals." The Benson Lecture is a highlight of the College's Earth Week activities—it is free and open to the public. A reception following the lecture will be held in the Ackley Hall chapel.
Dr. Goldberg's presentation will examine the question "With an estimated human population of nine billion by 2050, and possibly higher by 2100, how do we ethically feed the world?" The discussion illuminates human attitudes about animals and their roles in research and agriculture.
Dr. Goldberg received his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota-Pharmacology and has completed post-graduate work in the U.S., the Netherlands, France, and Israel.
He has served on the International Animal Welfare Advisory Boards of Shell and Procter & Gamble and consults with CeeTox (an in-vitro toxicology CRO) and Epithelix. In the non-profit arena, he serves a trustee of Humane Society University, the world's first institution devoted to human-animal studies. Dr. Goldberg is a recipient of the Humane Society of the United States-Russell and Burch Award.
The Benson Lecture Series, named in honor of former Green Mountain College President Thomas L. Benson, aims to bring visionary speakers of national and international significance to the College campus. Benson was president from 1994-2002 and was the architect of the College's environmental liberal arts mission.

Following his marriage to the former Claire Pick in 1940, he entered the U.S. Army. After graduation from Officer's Candidate School, he served as Executive Officer and acting Battalion Commander in the 84th Division. He was honorably discharged in 1946 with the rank of Lt. Col., and remained in the Reserves until 1953.
He then returned to his family's business and also owned and operated the former Ellis L. Jacobson Agency in Amsterdam. He enjoyed traveling and his summers at Sacandaga Lake. He was a resident of Florida for the past 30 years.
He held offices in both the Congregation Sons of Israel and Temple of Israel and was past president of B'nai B'rith and past commander of the Jewish War Veterans. He maintained a lifelong love of the theater and the arts.
His wife of 51 years, Claire, passed away in 1991. He married the former Dorothy Naple in 2002, who survives.
In addition to his wife, he leaves a son, Bren Jacobson of Annapolis, MD; a daughter, Gael Jacobson of Fayston, Vermont; stepsons John, Steven, Richard, William and Timothy Naple; stepdaughter Marie Naple; grandchildren Jess, Seth and Ahn Jacobson; 20 step-grandchildren; sister-in-law Vivian Jacobson; as well as his niece, Lois Seigal.

Recipe by CookinGirl
"This is a great pasta that can be eaten at room temperature or as a cold salad. Instant, sophisticated meal or side dish! And colorful, too. Any type of twisty or unusually shaped pasta works well."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.
Show ingredients on sale

Save money at local stores when ingredients are on sale!
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (16 ounce) package
farfalle pasta
roma (plum) tomatoes, seeded and diced
1/2 cup
olive oil
2 cloves
garlic, minced
1/2 cup
fresh basil leaves, cut into thin strips
salt and pepper to taste
I've been making this one for quite awhile with two ingredient additions--mozzarella & a dash of cayenne pepper. I keep the rest of the ingredients the same, but I do change the method! In a large bowl, I mix the olive oil with the minced garlic, salt, and a dash of cayenne pepper, and mash them altogether to infuse the OO with flavor. I soak the roma tomatoes (2-3x more than recipe calls for) in the OO mixture since the tomatoes hold more flavor than any other ingredient. I then add cubed mozzarella and the cooked bowtie pasta, mix it altogether, THEN scoop out 1-2cups at a time and saute it in a skillet over high heat until the mozzarella is bubbly and going brown, adding the basil at the end so it doesn't get brittle and overcooked. And I plate it. DELISH! Helped me woo my husband when we were dating; he still remembers this simple dish as one of his faves that I make. ;-) Thanks, CookinGirl!
Kind of bland. Used garlic and olive oil couscous and extra artichoke marinade.

Definitely easy and always delicious! Tomato and basil are a classic combination and when they pair with pasta it's bound to be good. I cut the recipe in half and used more tomatoes, a bit less olive oil, and added 1/4 tsp. of crushed red pepper flakes. I topped it with shredded Parmesan before serving. This is a very versatile recipe that you can suite to your own tastes - use your favorite pasta, add a splash or red wine vinegar or balsamic, throw in some capers, feta cheese, mozzarella or Parmesan. No matter what you do it's gonna be tasty. Overall, a great recipe!
I enjoy making this pasta dish often. I added more tomatoes, some crumbled (plain) feta cheese and toasted pine nuts. Yum!
As an Italian gal lucky enough to grow up with great Italian food, this is classic Italian cooking at it's simplest and best, and I'm so glad it's been submitted in recipe form so even those not familiar with it will give it a try. Simple preparation with fresh, in season tomatoes and basil, it's as good as a quick, satisfying meal as it is a pretty and flavorful side dish. No changes or additions are necessary, though unlike hubby I like freshly grated Parmesan on mine!
Excellent. I happen to have (fresh from the farm) Roma tomatoes and basil so I had to make this. Of course I added extra tomatoes, basil and garlic and used less olive oil...also added parm cheese...what a treat.
Wow!!! Awesome!!! LOVED IT! I am hoping to make this one again VERY SOON! Also, I used a can of diced tomatoes instead of chopping tomatoes, and instead of fresh basil, I used one-eighth of a cup (2 tablespoons) of dried basil. Delicious! THANKS!
This recipe was pretty good and perfect for a quick last-minute meal. I think it would have been better with more tomatoes.

YES! the very famous JAL the band with Gohar Mumtaz, Farhan Saeed and their third group member as bassist Shazi got separated. This is nothing new for the band since its beginning. From the beginning with a wonder hit Aadat and band members Atif Aslam and Gohar Mumtaz, the band got into all sort of controversies and both Atif Aslam and Gohar Mumtaz played the blame game and parted ways just after one song and video. Both Atif Aslam and the remaining Jal The Band released their albums and become an instant hit within Pakistan and its outskirts.
After their first album release yet again JAL the band came into the news for all the wrong reasons. This time there was a fight between their manager and chairman of the Jilawatan Productions Khurram Khan and Gohar Mumtaz again. Gohar insisted the band to visit India without their manager since he cannot afford to miss this golden opportunity.
And now its between Farhan Saeed and Gohar Mumtaz. We have been told by the sources that Farhan Saeed is quite upset with the fact that Gohar Mumtaz is acting as a big hurdle in his success and keeping him down. Farhan Saeed having a charming voice with amazing numbers coming out from his side since his inclusion in the band however Gohar Mumtaz always jumped in with his rather out of tone voice and shivering guitar cords. Both Farhan and Goher recently participated in Coke Studio's season 4 with 2 songs under their name. However both songs unable to make any impression with the masses and gone with the wind. According to sources the rift between the band members got to another level after the Coke Studio episode and in Farhan's opinion Gohar never listened to his ideas about doing music instead he was more interested into to get with Miss Baloch and therefore he insisted the producer to add her up for a song. However Farhan told us with a grin that QB is a smart girl and shes well familiar with the type of Gohar Mumtaz. Farhan said he think that we can do allot better in Coke Studio if he gets more air time with the mic. Another major reason for Farhan's depart is that Gohar has recently appeared in a drama on a-plus and he want to pursue a career in acting as well.
Farhan said he want to continue making music and would like to work on his solo album in some time. He added that he has cherishable memories with the band and JAL the band was his identity and it will be always close to his heart. But it is very hard to work with a self centered punk as Gohar Mumtaz and that leads me to this decision.

be afraid that it will never begin.

Correction does much, but encouragement does more. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
One of the most beautiful gifts in the world is the gift of encouragement. When someone encourages you, that person helps you over a threshold you might otherwise never have crossed on your own. John O'Donohue
Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you. Love me and I may be forced to love you. William Arthur Ward

When we speak of knowing God, it must be understood with reference to man's limited powers of comprehension. God, as He really is, is far beyond man's imagination, let alone understanding. God has revealed only so much of Himself as our minds can conceive and the weakness of our nature can bear. John Milton
There is nothing, indeed, which God will not do for a man who dares to step out upon what seems to be the mist; though as he puts his foot down he finds a rock beneath him. F. B. Meyer
Our circumstances are not an accurate reflection of God's goodness. Whether life is good or bad, God's goodness, rooted in His character, is the same. Helen Grace Lescheid
It's exciting to live in complete oneness with the will of God. It is never dull or static because it is not a one-time, once-for-all commitment. It is something we have to work at constantly, moment by moment. Evelyn Christenson

After a night of close calls at both ends, Norwich captain Holt had the easiest of tasks in the 89th minute when the ball fell to him a few yards from goal, after Hoops keeper Fraser Forster had blocked a drive from Jonathan Howson, to slam the ball into the net.
Brighton heaped more misery on crisis club Portsmouth with a 5-1 friendly win.
Gus Poyet's side opened the scoring in the 11th minute when Will Hoskins raced onto Vicente's pass and found the corner, while the Spaniard then set up a goal for Matt Sparrow (23), who fired home from 20-yards.
Vicente (35) was running riot and he surged towards the box before blasting into the top corner, but Pompey did pull one back when Dan Thompson (45) turned the ball home from close range.
Brighton quickly responded after the break as the masterful Vicente whipped in a free-kick which was nodded home by Romain Vincelot (48).
And young striker Torbjorn Agdestein completed the scoring in the 62nd minute when he turned in Hoskins' low cross.
Burnley claimed a 1-0 win over Bury in a pre-season friendly at Gigg Lane thanks to Danny Ings' late strike.
There were plenty of chances for both sides in an open match but it took until the 81st minute for Ings to settle the contest.
The forward burst onto Keith Treacy's through-ball and kept his cool to slot past advancing Shakers goalkeeper Trevor Carson.

As Peter pointed out yesterday, "In 2004, when it was politically convenient for him, Obama argued that his religious faith dictated that marriage should be between a man and a woman. Now his faith dictates the opposite. What has changed during the last eight years isn't the Golden Rule or the words and teachings of Jesus, the New Testament, or the Hebrew Bible; it is what is most politically expedient for a certain politician from Chicago."
So, it seems that, at least in Obama's mind, the whole moral basis of the Judeo-Christian tradition serves at the pleasure of the president.
But consider what he also said in his statement: "When I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don't Ask Don't Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage…"
Fighting on his behalf? Excuse me? British soldiers fight for Queen and country, but American soldiers fight for the people, who have been sovereign here since a well-known disagreement with the Queen's great great great great grandfather .
Is there no limit to President Obama's self-regard? Well, at least he still confines himself to the first person singular rather than employing the first person plural that Mark Twain thought should be used by "kings, editors, and people with tape worms."

I know I have been MIA as of late and I am sorry for that. Real life just gets in the way like that but I will confess to have been stuck in a sort of lazy mode! You know the one where all you want to do is either curl up with a good book or watch some TV? That has been me and I have enjoyed every bit of it!
You all know how much of a book person I am and that I will read just about anything! Hence my reading of the Book 'The Giver'! You also know how HUGE a fan I am of Alexander Skarsgård so in preparation of his role as 'Father' I had to give this book a go. I admit I was also very curious as to why it banned because in my opinion such as travesty SHOULD never occur!
From my reading, I saw no reason for the banning of the book as it showed very heartfelt feelings coming from a young man who was seeing the world as it really was, not the world the community wanted him to believe in. A world with no conflict, no rebellion, no color nor seasons. Young Jonas is chosen to be the receiver, the keeper of memories of things past that will help the community in making decisions for their continued future in an otherwise Utopian world, so as to keep the peace.
The only two in the community who feel any range of emotion are Jonas and the Giver and they would like to see this changed. In this community, everything is controlled, including to whom a person will marry and how many kids they have, which are not their own as sex is not an option. Pills are taken to stop the 'stirrings' of those type of feelings.
I am not going to give away all the details of the book because it really is a book that a person must read for themselves in order to gain their own insight and digest it for themselves. As soon as Jonas realizes for himself through the memories the 'Giver' passes on to him, he wants to experience all the ranges of emotions, trials and tribulations that a life not controlled can bring to him and others. That is his mission in this book and whether he can accomplish it or not is completely up to him.
As to why the book was banned, I did not find that answer in my reading but can only come to the conclusion that someone out there must have thought it too deep and hardcore that it might taint a young person's mind. In my opinion, that is not the point of any book, the point of a book is to expand an individuals mind and to harness their own creative instincts!
At the end of the book, I had to use my imagination as to what the ending was because it was open to interpretation. It reminded me of a book I read for my Sophomore year English Class in high school, entitled 'I Am The Cheese' by Robert Cormier. That book,while hard to get into, really made me use my brain to figure out it's meaning and intent. I have never forgotten that book and how it made me feel and how it made you think! 'The Giver' did much the same for me and I encourage anyone to read it that has not already done so.
As any Alex fan would know, he is playing in the movie version of this book entitled with the same name as 'Father'. I had moments in the book where I liked the character because he was so nurturing and caring but he really did not have those emotions that you attribute with those words. It is just how everyone in the 'community' is and Alex will be great in this role.
There is one part in the book that I am not looking forward to seeing Alex perform as 'Father' because it was just heartbreaking for me but watch it I shall. I am looking forward to seeing how this book is transformed into a film for I thought it was brilliant!
Lois Lowry, the author of the book tweeted recently about a scene from the book with Alex as 'Father' they were shooting and it makes me wonder if it is the scene I mentioned above.
I do indeed know the scene by which the author mentioned and yes it is pivotal and yes it is the one I mentioned earlier.
The author also took a picture with our favorite Swede on the set of The Giver and he is just as handsome as ALWAYS! He always looks good in blue and there is reason he is in blue as it is part of his characters uniform! Read the book (if you have not already) to find out his given occupation!
As usual, sound off below!

And just like that we're down to 7 finalists. Last week Big Mike was voted off by the viewing public but brought back to life by the judges. As a result two competitors were to be voted off this week. The unfortunate couple was Andrew Garcia and Katie Stevens.
Its always interesting each year to see how the judge's save performs in the following weeks and whether or not the public keeps them around. Looks like Big Mike not only was spared one week but now two. Sadly for me, Aaron is still around but I did think he picked up his game a little and does deserve it….for now. My guess for next week….Lee, pack yo bags.

SACRAMENTO- Law enforcement officials put more than 2000 hours into the Leila Fowler murder investigation.
Now that investigators have zeroed in on the suspected killer, the next question is what happens to the 12-year-old brother in custody.
The 12-year-old suspect, who has not been named due to his status as a minor, is expected to be charged with homicide.
Legal Analyst Bill Portanova explains why the suspect may or may not be charged as an adult.
In California, a 12 year old, if convicted as a juvenile, would serve time only until he is 25 years old and then be released.
A person tried and sentenced for the same crime as an adult could be locked up for life.
"Juvenile law is different than adult criminal law because the goal of juvenile law is rehabilitation. The goal of adult law is punishment," said Bill Portanova, News10 Legal Analyst
"Some kids are just so bad so early that the prosecutor has a right to drag them into adult court even when they're very very young. But a judge has to make that decision."
For now, the boy will go to juvenile court for a hearing. The court will decide if there's any chance of rehabilitating him.

Will Leitch Needs Your Help!
|Will Leitch, a man of dignity and class.
See, Will is currently trying to finish up his book, which is as-yet untitled, regardless of what the Amazon folks might want you to think, and he would like to have a section where just ordinary people write their own reflections on fatherhood and baseball. (The book is about fatherhood and baseball; I probably should have mentioned that earlier.)
So write down whatever recollections you would like to share with the world at large about your father and baseball, and send them to Mr. Leitch at email@example.com. Also, put in a good word for my entry I'll be sending him shortly. It's a story about what it would be like to watch baseball with my father if he were the Incredible Hulk. I think it's going to turn out really good.

Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.
This study is being done to better understand the relationship between inflammation and insulin resistance in your Adipose (fat) Tissue .
Open for enrollment
Rochester, Minn.
To determine the accuracy of unguided versus ultrasound (US) guided knee joint injections in obese patients with no clinically detectable effusion.
This protocol is being conducted to determine the mechanisms responsible for insulin resistance, obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Endothelial dysfunction, or abnormal functioning of the lining of blood vessels, appears to be a key process in the development of cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction appears to be caused by both sleep disordered breathing and obesity. As endothelial dysfunction is among the first clinical marker that predicts future cardiovascular events, understanding molecular mechanisms leading to impairment of endothelial function is very important. Endothelial function requires the proper functioning of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). eNOS activity is tightly regulated by caveolin-1, a protein important in the formation of cellular structures called caveolae. Low levels of caveolin-1 facilitate optimal nitric oxide synthesis in endothelial cells as caveolin-1 helps to spatially organize eNOS in close proximity to signaling proteins that are important for eNOS activation. In certain diseases however, the balance of caveolin-1 and eNOS can be disrupted resulting in impaired nitric oxide synthesis and leading to endothelial dysfunction.
The investigators therefore seek to characterize levels of caveolin-1, and correlate this with the presence or absence of sleep disordered breathing, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. The current IRB protocol covers the performance of fat biopsies on subjects who have recently completed a sleep study either in the Center for Sleep Medicine or in our sleep laboratory and were found to have sleep disordered breathing or no sleep disordered breathing, subject with sleep disordered breathing who have been treated successfully with continuous positive airway pressure for 3-6 months, and subjects undergoing other studies in our lab who are obese or non-obese and subjects who have known cardiovascular disease and subjects without known cardiovascular disease.
Obesity is associated with reduced adenosine triphosphate (ATP) turnover in skeletal muscle, a condition that can impair muscle metabolism. The proposed research will discover mechanisms responsible for decreased content in mitochondrial proteins as well as in protein β-F1-ATPase, which is directly responsible for ATP assembly, in the muscle of obese individuals. This research will further examine the effectiveness of interventions, such as increased plasma amino acid availability and exercise, to increase the rate of production of mitochondrial proteins as well as that of β-F1-ATPase in the muscle of obese individuals. The findings will help to develop appropriate interventions to improve muscle ATP turnover and metabolism in obese people.
Leptin is a fat hormone which acts in maintaining energy balance. However, leptin levels are high in obese subjects indicating resistance to the actions of leptin. High leptin levels have been associated with increased cardiovascular and metabolic risks, but it is not clear if increased leptin or leptin resistance contributes to the increased cardiovascular risk. Further, even though leptin receptors are present in fat tissue, leptin's role in fat tissue functions are not completely investigated in humans. Based on preliminary data the investigators hypothesize that resistance to leptin action in obese adipose tissue is responsible for altering the expression of adipose tissue proteins which contribute to the development of cardiovascular and metabolic dysfunction. To test this hypothesis the investigators propose a novel study directed at investigating the leptin dependent changes in adipose tissue protein expression using adipose tissue obtained from lean and obese human subjects
Insufficient sleep may be one of the most common, and most preventable, obesity risk factors. The investigators wish to determine whether 14 nights of modest sleep restriction results in increased energy balance, thus potentially increasing the risk of obesity. The investigators hypothesize that sleep restriction will result in increased energy balance.

Punch-Out comes to the Wii for the first time this Thursday and will be exclusive to JB Hi-Fi stores around Australia. Unlike Fight Night, Punch-Out is very much an arcade fighter, featuring zany characters and cartoon-style graphics. In line with bringing the series into the next-gen, Nintendo has also added in a two-player mode and Wii Balance Board support but has sadly left out any online offerings. Check out our review of Punch-Out here.
Next up we've got Up, based on the Pixar film of the same name. Starring Carl, Russell, and Doug from the movie, Up is a platforming game that is slated to appear on all of the current platforms. It follows the trio along their adventure in South America. Expect to see Up out on August 27 (the movie launches on various dates around Australia to coincide with each state's school holidays).

Occupying Sandy: Hurricane relief effort relies on South Portland, Scarborough shoppers
SOUTH PORTLAND — Thanksgiving road trips and Black Friday shopping were a common tableau last week.
Add stunning scenes of devastation and a truckload of donated supplies, and you have the weekend experienced by several Portland and South Portland residents.
Dawn Eve York, Mike Anthony and William Hessian were in the cab of a 26-foot rental truck that left Scarborough Friday night, Nov. 23, destined for the Rockaways, on the Atlantic Ocean side of Queens, N.Y.
Inside the truck was donated food, water, clothing, and other supplies collected Friday afternoon outside stores in South Portland and Scarborough. Most of the material came from shoppers at the Wal-Mart on Gallery Boulevard in Scarborough, York said.
"We had workers coming out and thanking us for being there," she said. "A lot of mothers were coming out with diapers and baby food, almost like they were waiting for someone to do this."
York, the mother of two boys, has been collecting and delivering items since early this month. She joined forces with Occupy Maine members to expand the efforts last week.
"It seemed liked no one was talking about it anymore," she said about why she started her own relief work. "I started getting reports back from a friend, Alan Porter, and hearing about devastation."
For several weeks, York drove collected donations to a relief center operated by Queens-based You Are Never Alone, also known by its YANA acronym. By arriving and leaving in darkness, York said she did not fully understand the scope of storm damage within a block of the relief center.
"It was sort of surreal," she said. "It didn't feel like I was in the U.S."
Kara Oster, a Portland resident and Occupy Maine member who helped collect items last Friday and joined York, Anthony and Hessian later during the weekend, has made several trips to Queens.
"You don't know what the damage is really like," she said. "It's destroyed, debris is everywhere."
York, Hessian and Anthony and the materials arrived Saturday, after more stops to collect donations in New Hampshire. Hessian said a room was set aside at YANA to distribute supplies at no cost – and everything was gone within about four hours.
Once the supplies were gone, the group gathered other clothing items and gave them away from the back of the truck.
Like York, Hessian was making his first daylight trip to Queens, and he recorded his impressions in his blog. Close to the relief center, a grate over the entrance was all that was left of a beauty parlor.
"It is breathtaking to see what nature can do and to think of the sadness and pain this must have caused," he said. "I could just imagine going to this beauty shop and now it is just rubble. I was really overwhelmed."
The group was also assisted by Occupy Maine members, including Porter, who was already in New York as the Occupy movement morphs into Occupy Sandy. It is a natural progression, Oster and Anthony said.
"It's almost easier to help people than do something for yourself," Anthony said.
At the relief center and walking through the neighborhood, York said she had striking conversations with storm victims.
"I spoke with one mother trying to do the best she could for her kids (who) was glad we could bring baby food and hats for her kids," she said.
As she watched one family trying to remove debris, York said she learned people are needed as much as materials to help the storm recovery.
"The biggest thing they need is people for the clean-up. They don't have enough hands down there," she said.
York and Occupy members intend to continue smaller-scale deliveries. Recovery efforts organized by the Occupy movement can be viewed online. Locally, donations can be made online or from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily at the State Street Congregational Church, 159 State St. in Portland.

Lee Enterprises Wants to Cut Post-Dispatch Wages by 25 Percent
|Torn to Shreds: The guild says negotiations with Lee have grown "acrimonious."
The company also wants to eliminate retiree health care -- this after Lee Enterprises announced in December that it would halt such benefits for many former workers.
Per the Guild's website:
We are now meeting twice a week with the company and a federal mediator is sitting in on negotiations. Things have gotten more serious.
Despite numerous tentative agreements, roughly a dozen on various individual items in the contract, we are concerned that the company may soon move to declare impasse. This belief is based on a number of thinly-veiled threats the company has issued across the bargaining table.

The spring semester of the 2001-2002 school year is my 5th semester attending Los Angeles Mission College. I say this with much joy because I am on my way to transferring after this semester. After finishing high school at the age of 20, college seemed like an almost unrealistic option for me. I was not a very good student. But after coming in contact with people that changed my perspective on education, I decided to go to college.
At first it was pretty intimidating. My fellow students were taking advanced college level classes and I was taking Math 105 and English 21. Where I needed to be seemed like such a far-fetched goal. But I didn't give up. I worked hard in my classes, and did well.
Now, two years later, I am looking forward to transferring to Woodbury University as an accounting major. I've also managed to maintain a 3.6 GPA, and have the privilege of holding the position of ASO Treasurer.

Alexandra Amati-Camperi
MUS 195Core FCourse Description:Everybody knows what a diva (or prima donna) is, but have you every thought of taking a class just about them? They would tell you that there are no other worthwhile ones, but the truth is that there is a lot more to Opera. There are love and human relationships of all kinds, and death (of all kinds as well), and the most complex and breathtaking intrigue… oh, and they do it all in song, on elaborate sets, with luscious costumes and vertiginous hairdos! In this class we will examine operas from 1600 to today, and will discuss not only musical and dramatic elements, but also the social and political questions raised by the works, racial and gender issues, as well as the environment they were created in and for, and the status of musicians, impresarios, theater managers etc. We will also attend 3 performances at the San Francisco Opera.
Faculty Bio:
Alexandra Amati-Camperi, originally from Italy, holds a BA/MA in Slavic Studies and Philology from the Università degli Studi di Pisa (Italy), degrees in piano from the Conservatory of Music of Lucca (Italy), a Masters and a Ph.D. in Musicology from Harvard University. She is Professor of Music, Chair of the Performing Arts Department, and Co-coordinator of the Music Program, which she created. Her interests include the Italian Renaissance, Italian opera, Feminist criticism, Romantic piano music, and German Baroque choral music. She is working on a book about women in opera. She sings and loves to read, ski, play the piano, knit, and cook.

Despite their geometric simplicity, L1$_1$(CuPt) and L1$_3$ (CdPt$_3$) fail to appear as groundstates in experimental systems. ( L1$_1$ appears in CuPt only) Are these crystal structures actually energetically unfavorable, or have they simply been overlooked in experimental studies? Here we investigate, using computational methods, the energetic stability of these phases in all binary inter-metallic systems. We combine the results of two techniques,namely High Throughput (HT) and Cluster Expansion (CE), to maximize efficiency and ensure thoroughness. HT results show L1$_1$(L1$_3$) to be stable in the following systems: AgPd, AgPt, CuPt, PdPt(CdPt,CuPt,PdPt,LiPd,LiPt). Cluster expansions constructed for these systems verify the HT findings in all cases, with the exception of the HT groundstate PdPt-L1$_1$.(D$_4$ is found to be energetically more favorable) Monte Carlo simulations, which are used to identify order-disorder transition temperatures, were performed for all occurences of these two phases. While the transition temperatures for some systems are found to be extremely low, others appear to be physically realizable.

Southport Yacht Club on Queensland's Gold Coast was packed with families, members of all ages and inclinations Saturday 22 December, enjoying a sultry evening of Christmas carols, face painting, excellent food and bev, lots of festive spirit, and the arrival of the fat man in the red suit, delivered by boat helmed by Commodore, Ian Hall, as a precursory visit before his Australian run.
This is what Christmas is all about!
Kids squealed with delight, adults with relief, when Santa appeared tootling in to shore, with a heavy sack in tow, and plenty of perspiration in the 29C heat at 5.30pm. They set upon him, poor chap. But he maintained his good humour and the line was orderly as they demanded their lolly bags and stated their wish lists (iPads were prevalent) for 24th December delivery.
A local choir warbled the traditional song list and guests and members tucked in to an Aussie barbie banquet or seafood a la carte, washed down with coldies of every sort in the sweltering heat.
There was a raffle and prizes for the kids, games on the sand and yes, the occasional tantrum . . . all part of the chaos and familial joy of this special time of year.
Santa departs to prepare for his Aussie run
A vibrant calendar of events is on offer at SYC over summer, and all year round, including upcoming lunch with David Hill for the Queensland launch of his latest book, 'The Great Race', Friday 15 February 2013. Just $49 per ticket which includes lunch and the great camaraderie SYC is known for!
Have a Merry Christmas!

Hip-hop dancers from DanceFX Charleston kicked off the Piccolo Spoleto Festival public announcement Wednesday morning in Washington Park with an energetic display that set a celebratory, urban tone.
The 35th annual Piccolo Spoleto Festival always has been meant "to make the arts available to every citizen and every visitor in our community," Charleston Mayor Joe Riley said. "It was born of an idea Gian Carlo Menotti had that a great arts festival is not something that happens within the walls of an auditorium, but a great arts festival happens throughout a community."
This year, more than 700 events are planned; almost half are free and the rest are affordable, Riley said.
As usual, the festival includes a number of theater, music, literary and visual arts events. Several local theater companies will present selections from their seasonal offerings. The Stelle di Domani Series features students of the College of Charleston's theater department. The Piccolo Fringe series offers improv and sketch comedy. Blues and jazz cruises will put patrons on the water, and both genres also will be available to landlubbers.
Local author Dorothea Benton Frank will discuss her latest book "Porch Lights" as part of the literary programming, hosted by the Charleston Library Society. Five other writers also are scheduled.
The annual World of Jewish Culture program will include music and film screenings. Eleven visual arts shows are scheduled. And lots of classical music is on tap, including an early music series, two concerts at Mepkin Abbey and a Spotlight Series that will offer a re-creation of an all-Brahms concert introduced to Charleston audiences in 1979, the year the festival began.
At the morning press conference, the festival poster by local artist Nathan Durfee was unveiled. It is titled "Piccolo Suono Bartholomeux" and displays the quirky, colorful charm Durfee has become known for. Some of Durfee's work will be part of the exhibit at the City Gallery called "Tales Transposed: A Celebration of Imagination."
Artistic Director Emeritus Ellen Dressler Moryl, who started the festival 35 years ago and now is producing the 17-day festival for the last time, called herself a facilitator whose job has demanded collaboration.
"From the beginning, my leadership has been always to catalyze the work of arts professionals," she said.
Scott Watson took over the city's Office of Cultural Affairs in January.
For more information about the festival, including a full schedule and to buy tickets, go to piccolospoleto.com, call 866-811-4111 or visit the box office at the Charleston Visitor Center, 375 Meeting St.

NEW HARTFOR, N.Y. -- Numerous motorists in New Hartford, New York were caught by surprise when a loose cow tried to make its way through traffic.
New Hartford Police say a farmer was moving four cows in the area when one got out of the trailer they were housed in. Police were called to the scene, which they say is one of the busiest roads in the area.
When the cow had made its way into the fountain at Veterans Park, multiple individuals lent a hand in helping corral or from the water.

You've seen the dossier on Phil Mickelson's game. Massively long yet sometimes wayward. Spectacular from 100 yards and in, especially the lob shot. Pure magic with the putter. Streaky, nerveless competitor. The book on Phil hasn't changed in his 18 years as a pro.
Missing is almost any mention of Mickelson's skill with the middle and long irons, core parts of every player's game. So how good an iron player is he?
"Underrated," says Butch Harmon, Mickelson's teacher since 2007. "You don't win 37 tournaments with three majors without terrific feel and control. I felt that if Phil's technique were better, he'd go from good to phenomenal."
When Mickelson first met with Harmon, he swung his arms back too far relative to his shoulder turn, says Harmon, creating a long but narrow arc with the club across the line at the top. His hip turn was excessive, his leg action loose. Result: a downswing in which he had to "save" a lot of shots with last-second manipulation of the clubface. He was brilliant at times, inconsistent at others.
Mickelson's swing today is about where Harmon envisioned it (see Harmon's comments on each frame). Phil's backswing is wider and more effective at setting the club and his body at the top. His boilerplate shot--a high, tiny fade--is brought off with ease. "Phil hasn't lost any of his creativity at working the ball and adjusting his trajectory," Harmon says. "The difference is, he doesn't have to work as hard to do it."

Even in a week where headline-grabbing scandals seem to be dominating all of Washington's time, concern over "too big to fail" banks continues to simmer.
On Wednesday, the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations held its third hearing this year on TBTF issues. It will hold its fourth next week.
Later that day - and just down the hall - Attorney General Eric Holder walked back a comment he made earlier this year about some banks being "too big to jail" at a House Judiciary Committee hearing.
"I made a statement, I guess, in a Senate hearing that I think has been misconstrued. I said it was difficult at times to bring cases against large financial institutions because the potential consequences that they would have on the financial system," Holder said. "But let me make it very clear that there is no bank, there's no institution, there's no individual who cannot be investigated and prosecuted by the United States Department of Justice."
"Let me be very, very, very clear: Banks are not too big to jail," he added.
They may still be "too big to fail," however--at least some regulators believe they are. "I think that 'too big to fail' is a very big issue, and we will not have completed the goals of financial regulatory reform unless we have adequately addressed this issue," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said last Friday.
He made a similar point in February when he told the Senate Banking Committee that "getting rid of 'too big to fail' is, I think, an incredibly important objective, and we're working in that direction." Just days before, Bloomberg had published an editorial calculating that large banks receive an implicit subsidy of $83 billion every year because it's cheaper for them to borrow than smaller banks that aren't believed to be backed by the government. That also got a lot of attention in Washington and on Wall Street, and revived the discussion over "too big to fail" that has been ongoing since the crisis.
Still, there's no agreement on whether the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform law, an attempt to shore up the nation's banking sector and clean up Wall Street in the wake of the crisis, solved "too big to fail" or enshrined it. Dodd-Frank requires the biggest banks to have so-called "living wills" detailing how they would unwind in the event of failure. It also gives regulators new tools to resolve or unwind a failed financial firm. Mary Miller, Treasury Under Secretary for Domestic Finance, said in an April 18 speech that Dodd-Frank ended "too big to fail."
"A common use of the too-big-to-fail shorthand is the notion that the government will bail a company out if it is in danger of collapse because its failure would otherwise have too great a negative impact on the financial system or the broader economy," she said. "With respect to this understanding of too-big-to-fail, let me be very clear: it is wrong."
"As a result of the comprehensive reforms passed by Congress and signed into law by President Obama, no financial institution, regardless of size, will be bailed out by taxpayers again," she said.
This did not make her popular with the economists and commentators who have been pushing for additional steps to break up the biggest banks, force them to hold more capital or put in place clearer plans for unwinding in the event of failure. Simon Johnson, for example, an MIT professor who has been outspoken on "too big to fail," wrote with colleague John Parsons in The New York Times, "Ms. Miller's argument rests on eight main points. On each there is a serious problem with her logic or her reading of the data, or both. Taken together, we find her position to be completely unpersuasive. Unfortunately, the problem of too big to fail still lurks."
Lawmakers like Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., the head of the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, agree. McHenry has made ending "too big to fail" a focus this year.
"The fact is that Dodd-Frank did not end too big to fail, but instead enshrined it," he said at Wednesday's hearing.
The proposal for addressing TBTF -- and there are several, including one out this week from the Bipartisan Policy Center and another the Dallas Fed released this winter -- that has received the most attention of late is one introduced last month by Sens. Sherrod Brown, an Ohio Democrat, and David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican. Brown and Vitter's legislation would impose higher capital standards on large banks. Critics say it's an overly blunt approach for the nation's complex banking system. But the proposal has garnered much attention in Washington and renewed again a conversation about TBTF -- even though political analysts such as those at the Eurasia Group say it's unlikely to go anywhere on Capitol Hill.
"Congress is unlikely to pass any anti-TBTF legislation... but regulations are likely to start working to limit the size or scope of such institutions, by raising their funding, compliance and transaction costs," Dan Alamariu and Samantha Grenville of the Eurasia Group wrote in a note this week. There's a feeling that Democrats don't want to reopen the contentious Dodd-Frank Act, for fear of unleashing a torrent of changes, particularly before it's been fully implemented. More than half of the rules required under the law have yet to be finalized.
Still, as the third anniversary of the Dodd-Frank approaches in July, expect discussion over whether the law adequately addressed "too big to fail" to only grow louder.

Crypto++ Faq-O-Matic :
How much C++ experience do I need to use this library?
|Moderator: weidai (inherited from parent)
|The library is an powerful and elegant tool for performing complex cryptography. It uses advanced C++ features such as templates, multiple inheritance, and exceptions to achieve that power and elegance.
For people who are familiar with C++, the library will appear intuitive and easy to use. Others may need to view it as a learning opportunity. If you are a C++ beginner and you are under a very tight schedule, or if you are "afraid" of the more advanced features of C++, this library may not be for you. Having said that, you are invited to see for yourself how easy or hard it is to use by looking at some of the other answers in this category.
