According to Ken Robinson's comments (here and here), the scheduled ground-breaking ceremony for the affordable housing project at Cliffton on the Potomac is now canceled.
GROUNDBREAKING CANCELLED due to the feared protest!
I had two TV crews that said they would cover the groundbreaking/protest.
Great work by the community and again, kudos to John Gardner for getting this the attention it deserved.
Some say it will endanger some institutions; merchants like fee caps
Executives with Maryland banks and other financial institutions blasted certain parts of the financial reform bill signed into law this week by President Barack Obama, while officials with retail groups praised the measure.
Reforms of the financial industry were needed and original intentions were sound, but the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act went too far, said J. Scott Wilfong, chairman of the Maryland Bankers Association. It will tack on several hundred new regulations and possibly lead to more banks seeking mergers, he said.
"We need to figure out how to make it work and not have a negative impact on the economy," said Wilfong, who is also chairman, president and CEO of SunTrust Bank's Greater Washington and Maryland region. He said he was speaking on behalf of the trade group and not SunTrust.
In a bid to remake the enforcement of federal immigration laws, the Obama administration is deporting record numbers of illegal immigrants and auditing hundreds of businesses that blithely hire undocumented workers.
The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency expects to deport about 400,000 people this fiscal year, nearly 10 percent above the Bush administration's 2008 total and 25 percent more than were deported in 2007. The pace of company audits has roughly quadrupled since President George W. Bush's final year in office.
The effort is part of President Obama's larger project "to make our national laws actually work," as he put it in a speech this month at American University. Partly designed to entice Republicans to support comprehensive immigration reform, the mission is proving difficult and politically perilous.
A committee was comprised of county residents, staff, and students to review the submitted suggestions. The committee came before the board on June 28, 2010 and presented their unanimous top three suggestions in no particular order.
The Board unanimously decided that the new high school should be named after a location not a person and therefore the following submissions would be mute.
The Board will be voting on the name at the August Board Meeting. Please respond with your vote.
This serves as follow-up to a previous post. There is a list of article links below involving tasers and their use in schools. Please review them and give me your thoughts. Officers, including the Juvenile Resource Officers in the schools, currently are armed with tasers. There is NOT a policy in place either with the Charles County Sheriff's Office or the Charles County Board of Education regarding the use of tasers on school grounds.

The explosive growth of the USA's older population is fueling a grass-roots "village" movement in neighborhoods across the country to help people age in their own homes.
More than 50 villages in a neighbor-helping-neighbor system have sprouted in the past decade from California and Colorado to Nebraska and Massachusetts. They are run largely by volunteers and funded by grants and membership fees to provide services from transportation and grocery delivery to home repairs and dog walking.
Most villages have opened in the past couple of years, an indication that the momentum is growing in the face of a demographic tsunami: The number of Americans 65 and older is expected to more than double to 89 million by 2050, according to the Census Bureau.
The oldest of 79 million Baby Boomers turn 65 next year, a turning point that will begin to put pressure on social services, retirement homes and assisted-living facilities.

Give away land to make money?
It hardly sounds like a prudent scheme. But in a bit of déjà vu, that is exactly what this small Nebraska city aims to do.
Beatrice was a starting point for the Homestead Act of 1862, the federal law that handed land to pioneering farmers. Back then, the goal was to settle the West. The goal of Beatrice's "Homestead Act of 2010," is, in part, to replenish city coffers.
Around the nation, cities and towns facing grim budget circumstances are grasping at unlikely — some would say desperate — means to bolster their shrunken tax bases. Like Beatrice, places like Dayton, Ohio, and Grafton, Ill., are giving away land for nominal fees or for nothing in the hope that it will boost the tax rolls and cut the lawn-mowing bills.
In Boca Raton, Fla., which faces a budget gap of more than $7 million, leaders are thinking about expanding the city's size and annexing neighborhoods as an antidote. Sure, more residents would cost more in services, but officials hope the added tax revenues will more than make up for it.

The other side of the border is also preparing for the implementation of Arizona's new immigration law, which could lead to a surge of deportees back to Mexico.
Migrant shelters along the border in Mexico say they're bracing for new arrivals after the law goes into effect Thursday.
Mexico's government has added more workers to its consulate in Phoenix to assist detained Mexicans. Migrants who have been deported say they're watching to see how the law is enforced before deciding whether to try again to cross the border illegally into Arizona.
"On the plane, everybody was talking about the law," said Ernesto González, a deportee who arrived here last week on a U.S. government flight from Tucson. "Everybody knows it's coming."
More than eight in 10 economists surveyed by USA TODAY have downgraded their economic outlook amid the European debt crisis and a flurry of disappointing reports, but nearly all expect the nation to avoid a double-dip recession.
The quarterly forecast of the 47 economists, conducted July 15-21, was decidedly gloomier than April, when the recovery was gaining steam and most experts were ratcheting up their estimates.
But the turmoil in Europe, along with lackluster job growth, a weak housing market and a slowdown in factory output, have damped hopes the nation will recover the 8.5 million jobs lost in the downturn at a more-than-glacial pace.
Tens of thousands of classified documents related to the Afghan war released without authorization by the group Wikileaks.org reveal in often excruciating detail the struggles U.S. troops have faced in battling an increasingly potent Taliban force and in working with Pakistani allies who also appear to be helping the Afghan insurgency.
The more than 91,000 classified documents—most of which consist of low-level field reports—represent one of the largest single disclosures of such information in U.S. history. Wikileaks gave the material to the New York Times, the British newspaper the Guardian and the German magazine Der Spiegel several weeks ago on the condition that they not be published before Sunday night, when the group released them publicly.

Sometimes wish I had an extendo hand to help me reach things that are just a little too far away. For instance, picking plums off of the trees around here in Santa Clara, they are usually just about 12 inches too far away for me.
This is totally ridiculous, I know, but here it is...
here's my boyfriend Greg picking plums with it:
Step 1: Stuff you need
5 spring type door stoppers
some wood and some screws
5 large washers with holes big enough to fit your fingers through
some string
some eyelet screws to guide the string through
cable ties
Step 2: Attach the fingers
I tried a couple of different directions for the thumb, but straight up at 90 degrees seemed to be the best idea.
Step 3: Attach the tendons
then secure the string to the "knuckle" part of the door stopper with cable ties.
attach the eyelet screws to the wooden palm and guide the strings through them.
Step 4: Attach the hand to the arm bone
attach the wrist guard to the wood at the other end with screws also.
Step 5: Adjust the string length
carefully connect the large washers to the tendon strings and align them so the inside holes just reach the tips of your fingers.
Step 6: Now go and grab some stuff!
The fingers aren't too strong though, they keep shifting to the sides a little. And it needs some padding under the knuckles and on the finger rings if you're going to use it a lot.
This is a really cool idea, if you wanted some next-level freakyness you could put a glove on the hand- it might make fruit-picking better (less bruising) and would look distinctly weird. Then sew extensions onto your sleeves and frighten small children with it :D

• Clear Full-HD Images
• Compact sized with 12x Optical Zoom
• Operate Outside of Sterile Filed
• Complies with Medical Electrical Equipment Standards
Memory card portable recorder AG-MDR15 series (AG-MDR15E) / Camera Head (optional) AG-MDC10G
• Solid State Media, No Moving Parts
• Standard Features Includes;
- 8.89 cm/3.5 inches LCD Monitor
- HD SDI Input for recording from an External Video Input
- Built-in 10x Optical Zoom
- Optical Stabilizer
* When AG-MDC10G is connected with AG-MDR15 series, camera head option cable is required.
Highly Detailed Image Capture
A Progressive 3MOS Sensor with Approx. 2.51 Megapixels
The progressive 3MOS image sensors record full-HD images with approx. 2.51 megapixels (effective motion-image resolution). This produces full-raster HD images with high resolution and superb image quality. Because each of the three separate image sensors receives one of the three primary colors of light (red, green and blue), they render more precise images and more faithful colors than the single light-receiving 1MOS sensor. Records clear, full-HD surgical and other images.
The AG-MDR15 series features the image-enhancing PH mode that Panasonic developed exclusively for AVCCAM camera recorders. It delivers a maximum AVCHD bit rate of 24 Mbps (average: 21 Mbps). Designed for professional image production, this mode handles full-raster HD 1920 x 1080 and 1280 x 720 HD pixels, and lets you record 1080/30p, 1080/25p, and 1080/24p progressive images in addition to 1080/60i and 1080/50i when connected to the AG-MDC10G (optional).
Unlike videotape, there's no need for cueing with the SDHC Memory Card because recording automatically begins in a blank section of memory. Nor do you have to worry about accidentally recording over important footage. You can delete unwanted clips instantly right on the spot to preserve memory capacity. Editing after shooting is smooth and easy, with no need for digitizing. The tiny SDHC Memory Card is durable, too. Its operating range is from -25 ºC to 85 ºC (-13 ºF to 185 ºF). And of course, you never have to worry about problems with dropouts or clogged heads.
Records for Three hours (approx.) in the highest-quality (PH) mode
Versatile Solid-state Recording Functions
This helps to ensure you always get the shot you want, by letting you continuously store, and subsequently record, images and sounds for 3 seconds before the REC button is pressed in standby mode.
* Can be used only when combined with the AG-MDC10G.
The image displayed on the LCD monitor can be reversed vertically and horizontally to check the angle and recorded image.
* Only the image display is reversed. The recorded image remains in its original orientation. It needs to be assigned as an User button. It functions during pressing the button.
Index flags can be added to any desired points in a clip during recording or playback. Up to 100 index flags can be added to each clip.
Date and time information can be recorded directly onto the video signal. This is ideal for use in medical journal reports and training, as well as for saving highly reliable images for explaining medical procedures to patients and their families.
Use AG-MDR15 Series with Optional AG-MDC10G
Zoom, focus, iris, shutter speed and white balance adjustments, as well as camera setup, can all be made from the AG-MDR15 series. Its built-in microphone also lets you input audio. And the audio level can be adjusted. The camera head option cable (optional) comes in 3 m (9.84 ft) (AG-C20003G) and 20 m (65.62 ft) (AG-C20020G) lengths to match your application.
In addition to the center zoom function, which enlarges the center area of the image for easier focusing, a focus bar can be displayed to indicate the focus level by the length of the bar. A peak hold function in the focus bar makes it easy to find the optimal focus position. The One-Push Auto Focus mode also lets you temporarily switch to AF mode during manual focusing.
8.89 cm (3.5 inches) LCD Monitor Thumbnail View
Image data is recorded as a file for each scene. Thumbnail images and file information are automatically attached to each file to enable smooth, easy confirmation and deletion of files displayed on the LCD monitor.
• Clip Operation
The AG-MDR15 series allows fast forward, fast reverse, clip forward, clip reverse, and frame by frame playback operation.
Meet a Wide Range of Applications
HD SDI input and HD/SD SDI output (down-converting the image for SD SDI output) are equipped. Digital AV signals can be transmitted up to 100 m (328 ft) with a BNC cable. Line recording of high-quality images from video cameras and switchers is also supported. When connected to a camera recorder, the camera trigger can be interlocked to REC start and stop recording.*
* To use linked and automatic recording, the function must be supported by the connected camera or camera recorder.
The AG-MDR15 series lets you input audio from external microphones (the stereo mini jacks). When the optional AG-MDC10G camera head is connected, audio recording is also possible from the stereo microphones built into the camera head. In either case, it's easy to adjust the audio input with the level meters displayed on the LCD monitor.
The AG-MDR15 series is equipped with an HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) output terminal for digital transferring of high-quality HD image and audio signals.
* The AG-MDR15 series cannot output HDMI and HD/SD SDI signals at the same time. Also, a conversion cable may be required for connecting the AG-MDR15 series to a professional monitor.
* Not compatible with VIERA Link.
This lets a Windows PC/Mac installed with the provided AVCCAM Viewer software to ingest, copy, and write HD video files, as well as transfer them to AVCHD-compatible nonlinear editing software for HD image production.

Conference des jeunes chercheurs de l'universite de Miami
9th Annual Graduate Conference - university of Miami
Publié le lundi 08 novembre 2010 par Marie Pellen
9th annual GRAduate student conference
Department of modern languages and literatures
University of Miami - February 25-26, 2011
Keynote speaker:
Floyd Merrell, Professor of Semiotic Theory and Latin American Cultural Studies and Literatures at Purdue University. A transdisciplinary researcher, Merrell is the author of many seminal works including Complementing Latin American Borders (2004), Sensing Corporeally (2003), Peirce, Signs and Meaning (1997).
"The Real is relational" Bourdieu
Hyper-connection and inter-dependence, as characteristics of our global world, challenge the validity of the cartesian cogito ergo sum: can one still think in terms of individuality? Both Peirce (who argued that existence lies in opposition) and Benveniste (for whom difference generates meaning) outlined, a century ago, the importance of relational thought. Nowadays, relation remains a key concept in postmodern and postcolonial theories, and it is a necessary condition for individual, social, and cultural identities. It implies a link, an interaction, a mediation even, in short a certain distance between objects, subjects, realities and representations. Spaces – whether fictive, virtual or real – can be envisioned as the referential context in which the relation takes place, or as the distance engendered by relation itself.
This conference invites participants to reflect on different types of spaces in which relations can be conceived. It welcomes papers on a wide range of interdisciplinary topics grouped into three spatial dimensions:
- physical spaces that can be approached on different scales (intimate, local, urban, national, international) and from various points of view (socio-cultural, historical, geopolitics): national borders as relational space, war, no man's land, and disrupted places, ruins as trans-historical ties, urban palimpsest and peripheral ex-tension.
- virtual spaces which include interfaces created by new technologies (twitter, facebook, blogs, online publishing), or similar but older networks such as "the Republic of Letters," but also fictional dimensions, utopia and related notions, as well as non-fictive issues: publicity of intimacy, collective writing in the cyberspace, from context to text.
- theoretical and ethical spaces that refer to specific notions related to the topic (fragmentation, displacement, referentiality, rhizome), particular approaches to the matter (environmental psychology, socio-anthropology, existential phenomenology, ethics in political sciences), or authorial concepts (Benhabib's imaginary borders, Ortiz' idea of transculturation, Bourdieu and the notion of field, Glissant's poetics of relation)
We invite proposals of 250-words for 20-minute presentations that might be given in English, Spanish or French. Please send abstracts by November 29, 2010 via e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com, including name, email address, academic affiliation, and short bio. A contribution of $35.00 will be asked to the participants to help cover the conference costs.

LACEYVILLE — Laceyville borough officials voted Tuesday night to reinstate a suspended police officer.
Full-time officer Matt Chamberlain, who has been with the department for two years, was suspended without pay in June after pictures surfaced of him selling a semi-automatic weapon from his police cruiser while on duty.
The pictures were taken outside a business in Wyalusing, Bradford County, where Laceyville police patrol.
"I'm glad this whole unfortunate situation is behind us so we can move forward and we can start patrolling again," said Laceyville Police Chief Scott Perry.
After the apparent gun sale, Officer Chamberlain was suspended without pay, not for the sale, which officials said was legal, but for conducting personal business while on duty.
Now, Laceyville officials have decided to reinstate Officer Chamberlain immediately and put him on six months' probation.
People living in Laceyville had mixed opinions about the decision, but most Newswatch 16 spoke with seemed happy with it.
"Who am I to say? I'm just a citizen, you know?" said one woman who said she supported whatever borough officials decided. She did not want to give her name.
"I don't think he should lose his job. I think it was a poor decision and he shouldn't have done it on duty but he's a great cop in this town. I haven't been here long but from what I hear and what I see, he's a great cop, there's no reason he should lose his job over it. Bad decision, but some people do that. People make mistakes," said Ashley Welch of Laceyville.
Officer Chamberlain was not at Tuesday night's meeting in Laceyville.

Anti-Aging Hair Products
Clairol Natural Instincts ($9) in both red and brown impressed us with its even coverage, shine, and fade resistance when used to hide just a little gray. Its blond shade gave results that were just as shiny, but it wasn't as good at covering gray, and it faded a bit.
L'Oréal ColorSpa Moisture Actif ($6.49) in Chestnut Reddish Brown had great gray coverage and shine; the brown and blond hues left a high gloss but hid grays less well. All faded some — what you'd expect from semipermanent color.

I have a few questions, without using MouseZoom the tracking speed of my 510 is just too slow. First, with the Logitech driver is there anyway to change tracking speed? I know in the PC version of the driver you can set acceleration and tracking speed to be ridiculously quick. I didn't see any option to do so in the Mac version of the driver, just button configuration options.
Second, with MouseZoom (assuming I can't use Logitech's driver to increase my tracking speed) the tracking speed goes to an acceptable level when turned all the way up. However, when I open World of Warcraft the mouse seems sluggish, is there any reason for this?
Any help you guys could give me would be great. I used the search feature and couldn't come up with anything that answered my questions well enough. If the 510 isn't going to work for gaming on the Mac could you guys suggest one that will? I'm looking for a mouse where I can set the tracking speed to be such where small strokes can move the cursor from one side of the screen to the other, I like a very sensitive feel.

March 7-10 CAA Tournament TBA
A native of Charlotte, Hall has played his entire collegiate basketball career in the SoCon. He loved the fact that his family could drive to see him play in nearly every one of his conference games.
But when the College of Charleston decided last December to jump from the SoCon to the more prestigious Colonial Athletic Association, Hall was completely on board.
The move from the SoCon to the CAA was a natural evolutionary process for the basketball program. Not that the Cougars had outgrown the SoCon — having won just one tournament title since joining the league in 1998 — but for the program to move forward it needed to step out of its comfort zone.
Will Hall miss playing against some of the SoCon teams? Absolutely, but he figures it's a small price to pay for the Cougars taking that next step up the NCAA ladder.
"I'll miss it because my entire career up to this point has been played in the Southern Conference," Hall said. "But at the same time, it's exciting to be going into a new conference, to be that first team that plays in the CAA. I think in the end it's a better move for our program and a better move for our school. Like in life, you need to keep moving forward and keep making yourself better."
No more bus trips to Spartanburg, Greenville or Statesboro, Ga.
They will be replaced by flights to New York, Boston and Philadelphia. The CAA won't be a bus league for the Cougars, who will see an increase of more than $1 million to the athletic department's travel budget this year.
"I think everyone is excited to see new places and play against new teams," Hall said. "We're going to travel up to Boston and New York, totally different places, and new atmospheres. It'll be nice to get that experience to see those new teams."
One person within the Cougars program who is intimately familiar with the CAA is head coach Doug Wojcik. Wojcik played his entire career in the CAA while at the Naval Academy in the early 1980s. He set the league's assist mark at 714, which still stands today. But a lot has changed about the CAA since he led the Midshipmen to three NCAA tournament appearances.
"I know most of the schools because I played in the CAA," Wojcik said. "But the league has changed. Sometimes I think the media and fans make a bigger deal out of it than we do as coaches and players.
"It's a new league for me two years in a row. Every arena we go to this year is new just like every arena we played in last year was new to me. I think that's the easiest way to look at it."
The Cougars will still keep ties to the SoCon and some old rivalries. Charleston will face crosstown rival The Citadel and Furman in December and take on Davidson on New Year's Day.
"We wanted to keep those Southern Conference schools on our schedule, especially games with The Citadel and Davidson," Wojcik said. "Those are pretty big rivalry games for us."
The Cougars, 24-11 in Wojcik's first season, enter a new conference with four returning starters and a much deeper bench. Adjehi Baru, Anthony Stitt, Anthony Thomas and Hall each started at least 30 games for the Cougars a year ago.
With veteran Nori Johnson coming off the bench and the addition of redshirt freshman Canyon Barry, Tulsa transfer David Wishon and freshman point guard Joe Chealey, the Cougars might have the deepest roster in several years.
"I like our depth and our versatility," Wojcik said. "We've got a few more options coming off the bench than we did last year."
If past history is any indication, the Cougars' chances of making their first NCAA tournament appearance since the 1998-99 season are good. Each time the Cougars have joined a new league — in 1993 with the Trans America Athletic Conference and 1998 in the SoCon — they've gone on to win their conference tournament. The Cougars were picked to finish third in a preseason poll.
"No pressure, right," Wojcik said with a chuckle. "We're picked in the mix to win it, so that's better than being picked to finish last."
