The 19-year-old has spent much of this season on loan at League Two rivals AFC Wimbledon, scoring four goals in nine appearances for the Dons.
"I am delighted to welcome Paul to the club," Scott told the Shots' official website. "I have watched him on many occasions for West Ham's Under-21 team and he impressed. He also did well on loan at AFC Wimbledon earlier this season.
"Paul is keen to do well and wants to score the goals which will help the club preserve its Football League status."
McCallum joined the Hammers in January 2011 after rising through the ranks at non-league Dulwich Hamlet.
The youngster, who recently signed a new two-and-a-half-year deal at Upton Park, is expected to make Aldershot's trip to Bradford on Saturday.

President Obama's address to the nation on Syria Tuesday night comes on the heels of a long day full of developments that are quickly changing the conversation. The Syrian government has agreed to give up its chemical weapons stockpile. The United States, along with France and the United Kingdom, has begun a game of tug-of-war with Russia on drafting a U.N. resolution to get those weapons. The vote before Congress to authorize the use of U.S. force in Syria has been delayed.
But as this word cloud of the president's speech shows, Obama won't let the American people, Congress, or the international community forget what's really at the heart of the situation: Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, he says, used chemical weapons to kill his own people, and we can't let him get away with it.
By far, the most-often used word in the president's speech from the East Room was "weapons," followed closely by "chemical," "Assad," and "military." Other frequently used words include "children" and "people," which the president used often in his appeals to humanity. Obama has left the door open for a potential diplomatic resolution in Syria, but he hasn't turned his back on using military force if the plan to destroy the country's chemical weapons falls through.

Gear Review
Best all around cold weather jacket!
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is a great jacket! A minimalist Denali jacket. Same 300 Polartec fleece but w/o the extra pockets. I can wear this jacket when the temps go down to the low 50'sor even in the high 40's here in the bay area in Ca. w/only a TKA 100 fleece underneath. It's also a great mid-layer insulation under a shell. The only thing I wish for is a hooded version that is windproof and a smooth taffeta lining inside so that when you slip your arms inside if your wearing a long sleeve, it doesn't bunch up. It just goes in smoothly.

The Underachievers made up of the young duo of AK and Issa Dash based out of New York have just released their debut mixtape Indigoism. The are apart of the Beast Coast Movement alongside Joey Bada$$ and his Pro Era collective, Flatbush Zombies, and the A$AP Mob, who are all collectively helping prove that real hip-hop is both alive and on the rise. Although the group is based out of NY, they have signed with indie label Brainfeede based out of LA, founded founded by beat music legend Flying Lotus. Indigoism is instantly a release that stands out amongst all the noise that gets released so regularly. For all 17 tracks of their first tape to have so much flow filled wordplay and on point lyricism, other rappers should be scared. We got to sample Herb Shuttles and The Mahdi, and there are a few other stand out tracks like Gold Soul Theory, T.A.D.E.D., Leopard Sheppard, Maxing Out & So Devilish. You would be doing yourself wrong if you did not pick up the whole tape and fall in love with it. Enjoy

The Governors Ball NYC Music Festival 2013 Full Lineup : Impressive Lineup Including 50+ Acts on Randall's Island, New YorkPosted in Bangin, Events, News by nick | Tags: Concert, kanye west, Music Festival, New York City, NYC, pretty lights, The Governors Ball
As the the year continues to kick off we get another incredible lineup for one of the summer's biggest parties in America. The Governors Ball takes place every year in New York City at Randall's Island, an actual island. The festival is taking place over the weekend of June 6th, 7th, and 8th. It seems to always have a massive lineup filled with big headliners to some of the best buzzing upcomers. The Ball's lineup tends to be a great mixture of everything hip. From a great balance of hip-hop, electronic, indie, blues, folk, and other live acts. It seems to be a great alternative for those in the North East not looking to make the nationwide trek.
This lineup is insane. Not an event to miss for anyone within range!

King says Congress today would likely vote 'no' on Syria
Rep. Peter King on Sunday predicted that if Congress voted today for military action in Syria "it would probably be a no vote."
"I'm hoping by the time next week comes around and, hopefully, the president can make his case that he will be he able to get a majority of the House of Representatives," the New York Republican said on "Fox News Sunday. "Right now, it would be difficult."
Part of the problem in gaining congressional authorization is the "increasing isolationist wing" in the Republican Party, King said, which "is damaging to the party and to the nation."

Cesar has not played for QPR this season following the club's relegation from the Premier League and he is currently recovering from a finger operation.
The 34-year-old wants to be playing regular first-team football to boost his prospects of being Brazil's No.1 at the World Cup next summer and is willing to listen to offers.
"God willing I'll move to another team to help Scolari and Parreira as they are helping me a lot," Cesar is quoted by SportTv. "Now, I have to help them.
"I have not received any offer yet, but considering my situation, everything would be welcome.
"Brazilian domestic football is very competitive, I would be closer to everything, including criticism. It would be good. But I don't rule out clubs from England and Italy. I'll consider the best offers."
Brazilian side Internacional have been linked with a bid, but director of football Luis Cesar Souto de Moura is not currently planning a move for the former Inter Milan keeper.
Souto de Moura told Esporte Interativo: "No, we have not sounded him out, we are not trying to get information about him and I don't even know who Julio Cesar's agent is.
"We have never considered the possibility of signing him. It's just speculation.
"We won't be a shop window for anyone. We know Julio Cesar is a great goalie, but we also know he will have to have physio until February. He will be fine after that.
"Imagine bringing in that kind of expensive player, so we pay the costs of his treatment only for him to then play for Brazil's national team. That makes no sense.
"We understand the player's dilemma, we respect him, but there is nothing."

Missouri Secretary of State's Office
Investor Protection & Securities
600 West Main Street

News Releases

Kander Recovers $1.6 Million for Investors
Jefferson City, Mo. — Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander today announced that his office has recouped more than $1.6 million in investors' savings that was misappropriated by a former employee of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated. The former agent, Greg John Campbell, operated a complex, four-year fraudulent scheme involving unauthorized activity in the accounts of Merrill Lynch clients, including changing clients' addresses, transferring money from client accounts to pay for personal expenses, and forging letters of authorization from client accounts.
After learning of the fraud, Kander's office took immediate action to prevent Campbell from misleading and defrauding more investors. In May, the Securities Division of Kander's office fined Campbell and barred him from registering as an agent in the state of Missouri in a final order.
"I am committed to protecting Missourians and their hard-earned savings and investments," Kander said. "When agents or advisors mislead their trusting clients and steal their savings, my office will do everything in its power to get that money back."
Kander expressed appreciation to Merrill Lynch for stepping forward and taking responsibility after learning of Campbell's actions.
"When companies with rogue employees cooperate with our office, we can reach the best remedies for Missourians in the quickest way possible," Kander said. "Today, because of Merrill Lynch's cooperation, that remedy is returning more than $1.6 million of hard-earned savings to its rightful owners."
The consent order alleges that Merrill Lynch failed to detect Campbell's unauthorized activity in some client accounts, failed to adequately supervise Campbell and failed to properly report client complaints. Merrill Lynch terminated one of Campbell's supervisors for "failure to elevate a compliance matter and to report client complaints."
In the consent order, Merrill Lynch accepted a censure, agreed to compensate clients for all unauthorized withdrawals Campbell made and agreed to make a payment to the Missouri Investor Education and Protection Fund.

Mitt Romney campaign compares Rick Perry to Jerry Brown
Via Morning Score, Mitt Romney's campaign keeps grinding away at Rick Perry, comparing him with Jerry Brown and saying Texas has been "supplying bad ideas to California since 2001."
Until you start seeing Romney campaign videos like this about Herman Cain or Newt Gingrich, it's pretty clear that the well-funded Perry is still viewed in Boston as the most credible anti-Romney challenger.
UPDATE: And the return fire from Perry spokesman Mark Miner: "Gov. Perry is the only candidate in the race with front-line experience on border security and immigration issues. Its hypocritical for Mitt Romney to be critical on this issue considering he not only hired illegal immigrants but also provided them with free health care when he was governor."Continue Reading

I am in NFL watching hell. My digital converter fried just before the game. I'm trying to watch the game on justin.tv, but the smarty-pants that are illegaly broadcasting the game keep switching over to professional wrestling. HELL!!!!
Once again, it's amazing how much alike Troy Polamalu and Ed Reed are...don't throw it near them, idiots!
If he ever hits FA, I don't care who we have on this team, we should throw ridiculous money at him. To have him and Ed Reed in the same D backfield...gives me the goosebumps.
Wow. That ball hung up there for Troy to pick it.ba
Moving the ball right into Palumalu's hands. :grbac: That brings back bad memories.
Nice throw into double coverage when you are picking them apart underneath you idiot old man.
That ball has to miss LONG and not short...ughhh.

If I was drafting a season-long fantasy baseball team today, I would target Kolten Wong very early. I remember before the start of the 2014 season, a major media outlet had a debate as to who the best future middle infielder would be. I was hoping one of them was going to talk about Wong, and to my surprise, they did. I was surprised because there was so much focus on future star players like Javier Baez, Francisco Lindor, Addison Russell, and Carlos Correa. We all remember Kolten being picked-off first base to end Game 4 of the World Series against the Red Sox in 2013. Talk about a way for a young rookie's career to start off! Wong came back in 2014 starting at second base for the Cardinals, only to be demoted to the minors after struggling to begin the season, and was then recalled and performed very well to end 2014. This season, Wong was the starting second baseman for the Cardinals, but batted at the bottom of the lineup. Now he's batting at the top of the Cardinals' lineup and has really displayed his talent. So far he's batting over .300 with 5 home runs and 3 stolen bases. However, he has the potential to hit 20 homers and have 25 stolen bases. When it comes to DFS, I will continue to play Wong at every opportunity. Not too many second basemen have power and speed ability. Robinson Cano is no longer a viable DFS option. Brian Dozier is a power hitter. Ian Kinsler has been an on-base player this season while still looking for his first home run. Jason Kipnis is coming back to his potential self, and as for Jose Altuve, well, umm, all I can say is Wong isn't there, yet. If there's a second baseman that can potentially reach Altuve-type ability, I firmly believe Wong could be that guy.

F.10 Bicycles
The bicycle is a convenient and popular form of transportation at USC. Thousands of riders may be seen on campus on any given day; most are students, but faculty and staff also use bicycles for traversing campus. In view of the number of bicyclists, it is paramount that each rider act in a responsible manner to avoid injury. To maintain a safe environment for pedestrians and bicyclists, the following bicycle policy and related operational guidelines have been developed for all riders.
The success of this program (i.e., the safety of campus users) requires that those individuals who ride bicycles exercise sound judgment and courtesy at all times while operating and parking their bicycles.
All applicable sections of the California Motor Vehicle Code pertaining to bicycle use are to be observed on the properties of the University of Southern California. Any person operating a bicycle on USC property implicitly accepts responsibility for adherence to all state and local laws governing bicycle operation, as well as this bicycle policy.
California bicycle laws and bicycle safety tips can be found on the California Department of Motor Vehicle's Website, www.dmv.ca.gov.
Riding your bicycle on the sidewalk while on campus is permitted, except where noted by signs on campus.
I. Licensing/Registration
- Bicycle registration is mandatory for all faculty, staff and students who ride or park a bicycle on the USC campus. By registering your bicycle, you will help DPS identify your bike if lost, stolen, recovered or impounded. Registration can be completed online at capsnet.usc.edu and is free. After completing the registration process, you will receive an automated receipt by email which should be kept for your personal record. Print and take a copy of this receipt to the DPS office to pick up your registration decal. DPS is located at PSA on campus. For more information, please call DPS at (213) 740-5519.
- Upon change of ownership or destruction of the licensed bicycle, it is the responsibility of the owner to notify DPS in writing at 3667 S. McClintock Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90089 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
- Valid California Bicycle Licenses obtained from other agencies will be accepted by DPS. However, it is recommended that owners register their bicycles with DPS to assure that current information is available in the event of a theft or if your bicycle is impounded. There is no charge for this informational registration.
- It is unlawful for any person to tamper with, destroy, mutilate or alter any license, indicia, registration tag or serial number on a bicycle (CA Vehicle Code 39002(b)).
- Any person who knowingly buys, sells, receives, disposes of, conceals, or has in his or her possession any personal property from which the manufacturer's serial number, identification number or any other distinguishing number has been removed, defaced, destroyed or altered is guilty of a crime (CA Penal Code 537e(a)).
II. Parking Regulations
- Bicycles may be parked only in those areas which have been specifically designated for this purpose. A bicycle parking area is indicated by the presence of bicycle racks. All bicycles must be parked in bicycle racks, and it is recommended that they are secured to these bicycle racks to deter theft.
- Bicycles may not be parked in a way that would block or impede the access to a building entrance or exit. Bicycles may not be left within six feet of an entrance or exit unless the area is designated for bicycle parking by racks. Additionally, bicycle parking is prohibited at any entrance, exit or access ramp to any building on campus.
- Bicycles parked in a manner that impedes the normal access to ramps designated for wheelchair or handicapped access to facilities are subject to impound and fines.
- Bicycles may not be parked or left on any lawn or landscaped area except those that have been designated for bicycle parking with the presence of bicycle racks.
- Bicycles may not be chained or attached to shrubbery, trees, plants, guide rails, posts, doors, lamps, telephone poles or other objects not designated for the purpose of securing bicycles.
- Bicycles may not be parked or left standing in any lobby or hallway of any building.
III. Parking Regulation Enforcement
- A public safety officer or other individual specifically authorized by DPS may issue a citation, relocate or impound a bicycle which:
a. is in violation of any regulation stated in Section I and II; or
b. appears to have been abandoned, inoperable; or
c. has been reported stolen by its owner.
- DPS may remove the securing mechanism of the bicycle by whatever means are necessary for impounding a bicycle or locking the bicycle in place. DPS officers are authorized to remove the device and impound the bicycle in this manner, and the university shall not be liable to the owner of the securing device or the bicycle for the cost of repair or replacement of such securing device.
- Any bicycle that has been impounded will be secured at its location or in the impound area of DPS. Persons retrieving an impounded bicycle will be required to show proof of ownership (with complete description: manufacturer, model, color, size and serial numbers) and his/her picture identification (student ID or appropriate state driver's license).
- Bicycles are not to be left on campus for storage during winter and summer breaks. Bicycles considered abandoned will be tagged and issued a three-day warning. If no action is taken within three days, these bicycles will be considered abandoned and impounded with a fee assigned.
IV. Bicycle Operation
- All bicycles must be walked in and around the following areas, Monday through Friday, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.:
a. Trousdale Parkway, between Hellman Way and Downey Way
b. Childs Way, between Watt Way and the eastern boundary of Trousdale Parkway
c. All construction areas at all times for the continued safety of pedestrians and bicyclists.
d. Gate 5, at times, on McClintock, between Jefferson Boulevard and 34th Street
- Bicycles may not be operated at a speed that exceeds the university speed limit for vehicles (15 miles per hour on streets and 5 miles per hour on campus grounds).
- Bicycles may be operated on the streets and pedestrian malls on campus; however, bicycles are to be walked on sidewalks in designated areas delineated by signage.
- Bicycles must always yield to pedestrians anywhere on the pedestrian malls. Bicycles must be walked in crosswalks since they are many times filled with pedestrians.
- When operating a bicycle, bicyclists must remain in the marked bike lane, if there is one. Otherwise they must remain to the far right of the street or paved area.
V. Fine Structure
Violators receiving a citation are referred to Student Judicial Affairs and Community Standards, and may receive a monetary fine.
- The impound fee is $20 for each occurrence. A bicycle will not be released until after the payment is made and ownership is established. If an owner is unable to pay the fine, he or she must sign a promissory note in order to retrieve his/her bicycle. If the owner does not return with the fine within three days, the charge will be added to the student's fee bill and a registration hold will be placed if the amount is not paid.
- The impound fee for bicycles blocking building access, wheelchair ramps or handicapped access is $35.
- The impound fee for bicycles locked to a wheelchair ramp or handicapped access is $75.
- Bicycles not claimed in 90 days will be presumed to be abandoned and will be sold or donated to charity.
VI. Cautionary Note
Bicyclists are urged to be very cautious when riding on campus. Accidental collisions may seriously injure pedestrians or other bicyclists. In the state of California, Bicycle riders (cyclists) on public streets have the same rights and responsibilities as automobile drivers and are subject to the same rules and regulations as any other vehicle on the road. A bicyclist who strikes anyone is liable for all medical expenses of that victim and any damage done to the victim's property.
A bicycle operator who strikes a pedestrian or other bicyclist and does not stop to inquire whether any harm or damage has been done, has committed the crime of "hit and run" (Calif. Motor Vehicle Code, Section 20001). This could result in the arrest and prosecution of the bicycle operator. Such an offense carries a ONE-YEAR sentence in jail or state prison or a fine of $10,000 or BOTH.
Riding a bicycle on campus grounds is good exercise and provides transportation to the rider. However, it also carries with it the necessity of operating a bicycle responsibly. Please ride your bicycle carefully and with all due consideration for the rights of other bicyclists and pedestrians.
If you operate a bicycle, you are also urged to review your homeowner and automobile insurance policies, or other personal liability coverage to be sure you, and your family if you are a dependent, are protected.
Revised March 2013.

PANAMA — The 2012 OK Kids Midget Regional Tournament got underway in fine fashion for the Panama Boomers, who defeated the Vian Wolverines 10-8.
The Boomers were slated to play the Madill Cats, who doubled up the Asher Indians 8-4 earlier in the night, in the winner's-bracket semfinals Tuesday night, with that winner playing in the winner's-bracket final at 8 p.m. Thursday.
In Monday's other game, the Stilwell Indians defeated the Poteau Outlaws 7-0, which put the Indians in a winner's-bracket semfinal Tuesday afternoon against the Okemah Panthers, with that winner playing the Panama-Madill winner at 8 p.m. Thursday in the winner's-bracket final.
The Outlaws will play an elimination game at 4:30 p.m. Thursday against the Panama-Madill loser, and must win that game and four more to win the regional title — and make state.
In Panama's win, the Boomers trailed 1-0 in the first inning, but scored three runs in their half for a 3-1 lead.
After the Wolverines regained the lead at 4-3 with a three-run second inning, the Boomers tied the game at 4-4 after two innings.
After Vian regained the lead once more at 7-4 in the third inning, Panama took the lead for good with a three-run third inning, a single run in the fourth inning and two more runs in the fifth — which was highlighted by Knute Dumas' two-run home run — for a 10-7 lead going into the sixth inning.
For the game, Brandon Black was 2-for-4 with a run scored, Dumas was 2-for-4 with a homer and two runs scored, Dawson Blair was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and Jaybon Mankin was 2-for-2 with a run scored.
Kade Johnson got the win as he recorded 12 strikeouts.
In Poteau's loss, Stilwell jumped out to a 3-0 lead after an inning to take control of the game.
In defeat, Jordan Terry's four-inning, one-out single was the only hit the Outlaws could muster.

I have a business idea and but don't know where to start
by yonsi, Window Shopper
- Created: November 3, 2010, 9:28 pm
Hello Everyone,
I have a recipe that is very healthy and tasty (similar to salsa), handed down by my mother. Its ingredients is only vegetables and herbs, and all my friends love it. I want to sell it, but don't know what my options are. I don't want to open a factory just to make one product (don't have that money either!) and I don't want to sell the recipe to a company who will take all the profit. What are my options? Where do I start?
Thank you to all who take their time to reply.
GBIntel | Creator | 11/16/2010 - 3:55 pm
Hi Yonsi Phanio's suggestion is easier, less costly, and doable. Additionally, I suggest (1) protect the recipe (2) sell to caterers (3) at grocers, do free taste samples and have plenty product to sell.
youngward | Performer | 11/10/2010 - 6:56 am
i maybe be wrong...but you wouldnt have to sell it to a big company...you could have them pay you to use it. you get a percentage of all your profits. but the best place to get advice for this type of thing....is to speak to a lawyer. just my 2cents
yonsi | Window Shopper | 11/10/2010 - 4:17 am
Hello, Thanks to all who responded. I am going over the info that was suggested. I hope I get somewhere. Thanks again!
phanio | Contributor | 11/8/2010 - 7:36 am
There are tons of stories of people starting out with just one product - think about all the non-national brands of chili, hot sauce or BBQ sauce. These people made up batches in their kitchen - then took them to local stores to be sold, went to trade shows and contacted seller reps in that industry to try to get their product in national stores. It really comes down to how much effort you want to put into it. You can also license your recipe to someone else. Thus, you get a portion of the profits for each sale and still keep the rights to the recipe.
JimD | Former Moderator | 11/8/2010 - 5:36 am
yonsi, It is difficult want you have just one recipe. Can you partner with a local restaurant or farmer's market? How big do you want this to go because starting off small is important. You do not want to get ahead of yourself. Take a look at these two articles: Nutritional Disclosure Requirements - FDA Guidance Offers Food Providers Chance to Weigh In What's Cooking? Food Preparation Options for Home-Based Food Businesses JimD
marthin | Contributor | 11/4/2010 - 5:47 am
I think you should first start with small restaurant and like you told you dont have money so you can take any place on rent so no extra procedure and fund require. And slowly you build good reputaion of your restaurant and increase your customer, check you profit margin and then later on if you feel your business growing then you can plan to buy that palce.
yonsi | Window Shopper | 11/5/2010 - 8:09 am
hello marthin, Thanks for you reply, but starting a restaurant based on just one recipe is kind of risky. I need to know how and where to make this product, pack it, and who to sell it to. And how to legally go about the whole process.
BizResearcher | Window Shopper | 11/9/2010 - 8:17 am
You may want to contact a small business development center or SCORE office in your area. The counseling is free and they may be able to direct you to a nearby business incubator that has a commercial kitchen. Many small specialty food businesses start this way. You rent space in the incubator and have access to the kitchen when you need it. You also have access to people who can help you through the start-up process. You might also do an internet search to find out if your state has a specialty foods association. Many states do and they are often associated with your state department of agriculture. The members of the association will have been where you are now and they can mentor you through the start-up process.

When I came up in 1960, we were averaging maybe 600,000 fans. In '69, we felt that was going to be our year. The fan base started to get larger and larger, and in '69 when we were in first place from the get-go, the "Bleacher Bums"-everything that was happening that year was unbelievable. You'd go on the road and you'd have the "Bleacher Bums" with you. You'd have fans there all the time. You knew the fans by their first name. And when we drew nearly 1.7 million fans for the first time ever, from that moment on, it's just gone straight up.
We were like rock stars. We always stayed in the clubhouse for two hours talking about the game, and we'd come out and we'd have 150 fans waiting. I had my shirt ripped off me once.

Bethesda, Md. (Aug. 8, 2012)Adolescence is an important time not only for growing but for acquiring healthy habits that will last a lifetime, such as choosing foods rich in vitamins and minerals, and adopting a regular exercise regimen. Unfortunately, several studies have shown that adolescents' intake of important nutrients, as well as their performance on standard physical fitness tests, has fallen in recent years. Because nutrition and fitness are intertwinedfor example, iron forms part of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen to muscles, and antioxidants such as vitamin C aid in rebuilding damage after intense trainingthese two findings could be related. In a new study, researchers have found that adolescents' blood levels of various micronutrients are correlated with how well they performed in certain physical fitness tests. Though these results don't prove causality, they suggest a new relationship between different measures of adolescent health.
The article is entitled "Iron and Vitamin Status Biomarkers and its Association with Physical Fitness in Adolescents. The HELENA Study." and is online at http://bit.ly/Q2j6lJ. It appears in the online edition of the Journal of Applied Physiology, a publication of the American Physiological Society.
Researcher Luis Gracia-Marco of the University of Zaragoza, Spain and his colleagues relied on data from a larger, long-term research project known as the Healthy Lifestyle in Europe by Nutrition in Adolescents Cross-Sectional Study, or HELENA-CSS. Part of this study, which involved thousands of volunteers between the ages of 12.5 and 17.5 in cities scattered across Europe, gathered nutrition and physical fitness data. Blood samples taken in one third of the volunteers (n=1089) were tested for a variety of micronutrients, including hemoglobin, indicative of iron intake, soluble transferrin receptor, serum ferritin, re

President and Provost Announce Action Plan To Advance the University's Community Engagement
To the University at Albany Community:
We are pleased to announce that the Steering Committee on Community Engagement has completed an Action Plan to Advance Community Engagement at UAlbany. The Committee's final product, the plan presents five strategies and several action steps as well as a vision and mission statement for community-engaged teaching, research and service at the university. We invite you to view the plan at http://www.albany.edu/outreach/Action_Plan.pdf and we welcome your comments. Please send them to email@example.com. As a "working draft," the action plan will evolve over time, particularly as the campus undertakes strategic planning in the future.
We commend the Committee's work and the road map they have laid out for the future. One of the plan's strengths is that it reflects a breadth of perspectives among faculty and administrators. We want to thank the Committee members for their dedicated work and also co-chairs Lynn Videka, former Vice President for Research, and Miriam Trementozzi, Associate Vice President for Community Engagement, President's Office, for their leadership. Graduate Assistant Sarah Imboden, who staffed the Committee, should be recognized for her efforts as well.
The Committee's work ranged from taking stock of UAlbany's community partnerships to considering best practices at other universities to holding focus groups with community leaders. A culminating campus event was the forum we held with the Committee in March of this year when Syracuse University Chancellor Nancy Cantor spoke on her vision, Scholarship in Action through Community Engagement.
We've asked Miriam Trementozzi to begin working on some preliminary steps. A major one is to help us build greater external recognition of our accomplishments in community engagement by developing a communications campaign with the Office of Communications and Marketing. We can do much to tell our story of successes in a big and compelling way. This can only help benefit the University, especially in difficult fiscal times. Miriam will also work to launch the internal committee recommended in the Action Plan to facilitate more collaboration and communication across campus.
Again, your thoughts on the action plan are welcome. Please forward them to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Many thanks.
Sincerely yours,
George M. Philip Susan D. Phillips
President Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs

NMSU Studying Space Weather
By KRWG News
Las Cruces – Astronomers at New Mexico State University plan to take weather forecasting a step further.
They have been awarded grants from the National Science Foundation and NASA to better understand the depths of the sun and predict weather in space, such as the magnetic storms that can develop on the sun and cause havoc with satellites and power grids on Earth.
Assistant astronomy professor Jason Jackiewicz estimates that nearly half a billion dollars is spent annually repairing equipment damaged by space weather.
Jackiewicz said the researchers will study the sun during "sunquakes," probing its interior to determine the sun's internal properties. Scientists hope to see where a magnetic field is born and how it rises, as well as understand solar eruptions and flares.

Born 1965, London, England
If you look at anything too hard it begins to disintegrate, dissolving to the point where everything can be linked yet nothing is stable. I make art to explore this experience of perception (which feels like it hovers between joy and fear). The gallery installations (from video to drawings) are a series of propositions as to how our culture might be -- How else might we coincide and communicate? What else might we value? -- if reality shifted in the way it feels that it might, at any minute. I develop the structures of these possibilities by placing a "wrong" question into public space (through advertisements, phone calls, a question to a stranger, catalyzing chance, a group of respondents and a process that unfolds with them: reunions of owners of a particular jacket or the children "murdered" in Pasolini's film Salo; a god look-alike contest; strangers asked where The End should take place or lighting technicians asked to set up the light in heaven; a London gallery's entire archive given to a group of Kurdish asylum seekers to edit and hide outside the capital...

The Art San Diego Contemporary Art Fair happens Thursday, Sept. 6, through Sunday, Sept. 9, at Balboa Park. While the art fair is a chance to see some of the beautiful work by local and international artists, it also gives artsy-fartsy types a chance to augment their fine-art collections.
Let's be real. Most of us can't drop $10,000 on a new kidney, let alone a beautiful painting for the guest room, which is really just the living room with sheets over the couch. With all the gorgeous pieces that'll be on sale, surely there are a few that a regular Joe or Jane can afford, right?
As part of the art fair's Art Labs—on- or off-site exhibitions that seek to do more than just display art, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego's bringing back Product Porch, a pop-up store that will sell goods by local and international designers. Located at MCASD's Downtown location (1001 Kettner Blvd.), the shop will feature furniture, artwork, design pieces and accessories. Some highlights at Product Porch:
• Posters by Orange & Park: David Klinker and John McCauley, the guys behind this Coronado-based design company, love maps, the beach and typography. These three elements combine in their simple, bold and elegant posters featuring California's coastal cities. For locals, there's a San Diego version, too.
• Indoor / outdoor furniture by Bajaus: Bajaus calls Tijuana home—its name is a cheeky homage to Baja California and the Bauhaus movement. Their minimalist Acapulco Rocker rocking chair caught my eye—perfect for a patio or an alt.baby nursery.
• Welcome Companions' wagons: Laurel Broughton takes humble canvas bags and attaches two pairs of wheels and a handle for a stylish way to transport groceries and small children.
• Prints by John Bauer: Bauer, a San Diego native who lives in L.A., creates dark-and-edgy abstract, monochromatic works that are interesting enough to be conversation pieces but can also blend into the background.
• Elyse Graham's "drip" bracelets: Dipped in urethane, these bracelets evoke everything from twigs to white-chocolate-covered pretzels and look cool stacked high.
Another Art Lab is Maximum SD Vintage, a curated shop by Dave Hampton from Objects USA, an online midcentury-modern art dealer. Here is where you go if you want higher-end vintage pieces that are not only beautiful, but also a piece of modern-design history. Hampton is selling work by six San Diego artists, as well as coveted Charles Eames furniture.
You may need to bring a couple credit cards, since the goods here will range from $1,000 to $4,000. However, these pieces are lifers. Expect interesting sculptures by James Hubbell and art from Russell Baldwin, Fred Holle and Sheldon Kirby. The Baldwin piece titled, "William," with its geometric shape and bright colors, is everything Ikea strives to be minus the mass-produced quality. Hampton's bringing pieces that not only tell San Diego's design history but also have gone unseen in decades.
"This is my chance to bring their work back into the context of an interesting art fair," Hampton says. "They did things in the '60s that people are repeating today. It's like you're rediscovering something. Stuff looks cool now in today's art world. It holds its own."
That sounds dangerous to your bank account, but it's well worth the investment.

Instead of being extradited to Sweden to face charges on two counts of sexual misconduct, Wikileaks mastermind Julian Assange would rather move to Ecuador and face no charges for anything, please.
Ecuador's foreign minister says Wilikeaks chief Julian Assange has taken refuge in the South American nation's embassy in London and is seeking political asylum.
Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino says Ecuador is weighing the request.
Ecuador and Assange have something of a history: The country offered Asssange residency in 2010, and last month Assange interviewed Ecuador's president on TV. We guess the old adage is true: "It's good to have friends in high places, and, barring that, Ecuador."

Maybe Randy Lerner can take half the money he gets from the sale of the Browns and buy the Indians.
Here is a Cleveland guy that is not afraid to spend money. He can compete in a non-salary cap league.
Let him find a good President-GM and let him run the team.
The Indians could have a possible future.
Holmgren is gone.
Shurmur was a questionable hire, but I backed him because of Holmgren.
Doubt Heckert will work for Banner.
If the Browns can hire Bill Polian and let him run the football side, then there is hope. He would complete the roster and go out an get a good coach. Short of Polian, the Browns will hit a wall within the next few years.
Are you serious?
Banner brokered the deal.
Even ESPN people are reporting that he is in line to be President.
At the very least he goes in as some sort of adviser to Haslam.
You want to tell me how a media guy in Philly broke this story 2 months ago - a story where the football team in Cleveland is being sold to a Tennessee guy that is a part-owner of the team in Pittsburgh? WHERE is the link to Philly? What, did the good fairy fly over and drop the reporter an exclusive?
So maybe Holmgren and Heckert stay on a year as it's obviously too late to reorganize the operation with training camp coming up and people around the NFL under contract. But after this season is over you'll see the shake-ups. It's in the cards. Everybody following the NFL knows it. That's how these things are done.
Dr. Brown,
Here is another article:
Find some thorazine.
The NFL bylaws do not allow a person to be in the ownership groups of 2 teams.
I'm sure someone will buy his Steeler stock.
Dr. Brown,
I read your ESPN article. It was a textbook business class case study on how to handle a situation after there is a power struggle and one person loses.
The Browns are a political football. They're a way a guy from Mass and a guy from Tenn can live out their dreams about being a major part of an NFL franchise. Ironic that the new owner is currently a part-owner of the Steelers. Pittsburgh companies have come in and bought up major banks, the two major real estate firms, the main grocery shopping chain, major departments stores, and other major businesses around Cleveland. All the quality Cleveland people with money left long ago. When Randy's son is done with high school, they can move back to New York City. It's almost as if Cleveland has become a colony of Pittsburgh.
The Browns had a real chance with Holmgren. Expect to see numerous resignations in the front office and at high levels in the business division. The only reason those people could be persuaded to leave their last NFL positions was to work for Mike. Without him they've taking their families back to Miami, New York, etc.
As you know, to build something that lasts for years in the NFL, it takes years to lay the foundation down. Holmgren was dong it. I hope he lands on his feet elsewhere, and assume people will follow him there.
Gosh, how happy do you think Joe Thomas is today? It was because of Holmgren and the things he saw going on in Berea that he signed a long-term extension. He can play for the NFL team of his choosing. He didn't have to stay. Now I wonder how long it'll be before he asks to be moved.
That must be it.
Hey, that's probably the same reason Carmon Policy left the 49'ers!
Funny, the 49'ers stunk for decades after he left, and the Browns stunk for over a decade after he came here. But the Eagles still have Andy Reid.
P.S. I hope the first free agent he signs is Braylen Edwards. You, above all people, will deserve it.
You read it wrong.
Maybe you need to email some people in Philly that are aware of the situation.
Follow the bouncing ball.....
The two owners that helped Randy when his father died were Kraft in Boston and Lurie in Phillly.
Laurie put his buddie Banner in solid when he bought the Eagles. Banners background via Wiki -
"....he (Banner) attended the Rivers School in Massachusetts and studied economics at Denison University in Ohio. In 1975, he spent a semester interning at WCAU 1210 AM radio in Philadelphia; soon after, he was hired there as a sports producer and reporter.
Banner left WCAU when he opened a chain of clothing stores in Boston called Designer's Clothing. He then became the head of City Year, a non-profit organization promoting community service for youth.
In 1994 Banner began his work in professional football when Jeffrey Lurie, an old friend, purchased the Eagles. He was promoted in 1996 to senior vice president, and in 1997 from senior vice president of administration to executive vice president."
- - - -
CARMON POLICY II (Carmen was DeBartolo's childhood friend from Youngstown that couldn't make it as a lawyer, and 2 years after being hired was fighting with Bill Walsh about personnel decisions.
- - - -
Back to the bouncing ball......
Laurie had to take Banners power away from him this year because the guy undercut the football people. Laurie has ties to Randy, Laurie knows Randy doesn't want to own an NFL team and has Banner contact Mr. Moneybags, who has wanted to buy an NFL franchise....ANY NFL franchise...no matter the cost. Mr. Moneybags makes Randy an offer he can't refuse and , and Lauries' friend Joe Banner lands on his feet as President of the Browns.
Everyone wins!
Except for Browns fans who - like him or not - are going to lose a President that went to Super Bowls with all 3 teams he coached for, and gain a guy that used to be in radio, washed out running some clothing stores in Boston, and was working at a "a non-profit organization promoting community service for youth" when his old friend Jeff Laurie took his call and started him in the administration for a pro football team.
Andy Reid built the Eagles, with the help of Tom Heckert. Joe Banner did not.
Like Carmen Policy and Bill Walsh, Joe Banner thinks he knows more about running a football operation then Andy Reid.
Joe Banner is a hack.
This is CARMON POLICY II, and while the Browns will eat up their cap space ASAP signing overpaid and overvalued name veterans which will please the instant gratification clowns that post on cleveland.com, all the people in strategic positions will be watching their back and will be afraid to do their job. The cohesiveness that was being built is going to dissolve, and you'll be reading about players on the team that don't like one another, the organization, the coach, and other players. The foundation that has been built the past 3 years will crack. Maybe Banner will bring back Phil Savage as GM.
I love the Browns, but I follow other teams as well (have been a big fan of the Eagles under Andy Reid, and have known about Banner for years). I'll turn my attention to the other teams I follow.
I'm very, very sorry for the Browns fans. The best that can be hoped for is that after 3-5 years of chaos, the new owner will figure he has repaid Banner enough for brokering the deal, and will go out looking for a football guy like Mike Holmgren to rebuild the organization from the ground up.
Cleveland sports fans will forever go in circles.
He was kicked upstairs in June because he screwed up the operation. So they made up a BS title for him.
Think you need to talk to Eagles fans.
Banner pushed out Heckert and backed Rothman. Shurmur he could care less about.
Wouldn't surprise me if Heckert resigns with in a year at the latest.
A bad, bad move Dr. Brown. You will see.
Cleveland sports fans are getting the shaft yet again.
And just like Carmon Policy, Banner was an old friend of the owners, so he got a juicy job in spite of the fact that he had no background in football.
Policy, Mark Shapiro - how come Cleveland fans don't get people to run the organizations that have a background in the sport?
And I'm getting real tired of doing the NE Ohio media's job for them.
Don't like this, don't like it at all.
That is the guy behind this.
He was canned by the Eagles this year. Power struggle with Andy Reid. Banner got Heckert out and Rothman in. Eagles signed a bunch of big name free agents, got labeled "The Dream Team", and fell on their toushes because they couldn't play together. Biggest disappointment in the NFL last year. So Banner was relieved of duties as President, and he went out and found a rich guy that would pay anything to buy an NFL team. (This is the reason the story broke in Philly 2 months ago, even though Haslam is part-owner of the Steelers and has no connection to Philly.) This way, Banner gets to be President - (and out goes Holmgren....followed shortly by everyone he's brought in and the Browns wil start over yet again). The exact same thing that Carmon Policy did to Randy's father.
Welcome to Carmon Policy II.
Holmgren and his staff have easily done more in 3 years then any people since 1999. They're on the right track and Randy is behind them.
The Browns have one of the most difficult schedules in the NFL. I want to see how well they play and if the players are growing together.
You people can get Randy to blow it up again, but the team will only regress. Again.
Here's what Toni Grossi wrote:
"No receiver on the Browns' roster has the elite physical skills Gordon possesses. At 6-3 1/8 and 225 pounds, with long arms and huge hands, exceptional leaping ability and good speed for a big man, Gordon has all the tools of the prototypical No. 1 wideout. Athletically and physically, think Andre Johnson, A.J. Green and Julio Jones."
The readers will follow you anywhere!
You'll probably get The Pulitzer Prize for this comment!
Tell you the truth - you're too good for the readers here.
Actually, Gordon didn't "play catch", he worked out with the team at practice. But that probably doesn't mean anything.
Of the WR's drafted in 2011, Little had one of the 3 or 4 best seasons. But that probably doesn't mean anything.
Little had a terrible QB with a weak arm that couldn't get the ball downfield to him. But that probably doesn't mean anything.
So you've changed my mind. The Browns are lousy, they do everything wrong, they're wit worst tem in the history of the NFL, and they're not worth paying attention to. I got it.
So why do you pay so much attention to them?
1. Could you please name the veteran WR that they could have signed in free agency - that would be interested in coming to a young team with little chance to get to the playoffs?
2. Are you saying that without a veteran WR to help them, the young receivers can't learn from the HC, OC and Receivers coach?

When I was first introduced to the concept of linear perspective, I was fortunate because it wasn't in a dry, boring geometry lesson but in an art history class, where it was touted as a feat of the High Renaissance and associated with some of the most incredible art and architecture in the world. And while there are complex explanations of how to use three-, two-, and one-point perspective, it all pretty much comes down to one thing: drawing and painting the way the human eye sees the world.
I love how artists can create worlds all their own—using the hills and
valleys of a beautiful landscape or the sensuous curves of the human
form. But that's not all artists are capable of doing. Centuries ago,
great artists like Michelangelo and Bernini didn't just build worlds in
their paintings and sculptures, they actually constructed amazing works
of architecture—church facades, magnificent tombs, and exquisite
palaces. The artists imagined an environment from the ground up, and
were often able to turn their visions into reality.
As an artist who has painted the natural world for over 20 years,
Adam Straus has a complicated connection to his environment. In the
1990s, he painted Oil Slicks, a series of paintings that
referenced the oil spills that happened at the time, and the relevancy
of these paintings has been asserted again and again over the years.
a period of time, the artist also painted seascapes that contained a
sense of foreboding, often jarring to viewers who expect serene images
of waves crashing along the shore. The works lent themselves to that
19th-century understanding of the sublime. In many of his paintings
Straus demonstrates that nature, although welcoming, still has power to
match that of any manmade structure. "Nature is a powerful force and
can destroy what we build in a matter of minutes," the artist says.
"Haiti and New Orleans are examples of that." Lately, the artist has
reduced the environment depicted in his paintings to its most
elemental. Seascapes compositionally winnowed down to water, air, and
the horizon line that joins the two.
No matter the venue, the accepted rule of thumb is that a painting
should always be hung just above eye level. As a result, many artists
create paintings with this point of view. Louisiana artist Mitchell Long
seeks to subvert this expectation by manipulating vantage points in his
paintings of landscapes, cityscapes, and interiors. He often makes the
horizon line loom low or stretch high, or manipulates the picture plane
so that viewers feel small—or as though they are floating a few feet
off the ground.

Flooding at Broadway and East Main streets (Photo by Lee Talbert/Press Photo Editor)
Marking the third consecutive Wednesday the area has seen heavy rain and severe storms, yesterday's thunderstorm, this time with severe lightning, hit fast and hard, which caused flooding and power outages throughout Johnson City and the region.
Around 5 p.m. downtown Johnson City resembled a lake with water standing and areas between Buffalo and Dodge streets flooded.
Boone and Market streets were also reported to be impassable to vehicles, and several roadblocks were set up by Johnson City police on State of Franklin Road and Main Street.
Following last week's flooding, the area near Appalachian Funeral Home was reported flooded again. The backside of Myrtle Street near American Water Heater was also reportedly flooded.
Area parks, including Kiwanis and Carver, had also been affected by the heavy rain and had flooding.
According to emergency radio communications, two trees were reported down on Broadway Street, as well as a four-car wreck on that same road.
Legion Street also reportedly had some flooding from the storm.
The downtown area had several power outages, which affected traffic lights and downtown businesses.
East Johnson City neighborhoods reported power outages, as well as widespread flooding and high water in back yards between East Watauga and East Unaka avenues.
Minor flooding was also reported in Burgin Dossett, Rogers-Stout and Sam Wilson halls at East Tennessee State University, according to an ETSU representative.
According to the Johnson City Power Board Twitter page, approximately 30,000 customers lost power Wednesday evening.
JT McSpadden, Johnson City Power Board representative, said around 7:15 p.m. that only 2,200 customers were without power, which dropped again around 8 p.m. to approximately 1,300 outages remaining.
"The reason we had so many off at one time was because a 69 kilovolt line, which is one of our feeds from TVA, went out from a lightning strike. That's a primary substation," he said.
McSpadden said the substations had been restored around 7 p.m. and anticipated full power to be restored Wednesday night.
According to JCPB's Twitter page, one power pole was reported down from a car wreck on Corby Bridge.
Around 6:45 p.m., Washington County/Johnson City dispatchers said they had several calls coming in reporting flooding and damage throughout the city and county.
Carter County/Elizabethton dispatchers said some flooding had also been called in, as well as people stranded in their vehicles, but said all had been rescued.
Most of Elizabethton and western Carter County were without electricity for about an hour, from 6-7 p.m. Elizabethton Electric Department spokesman Ken Markland said the outages were caused by TVA having to switch lines and turn off the feed to two substations.
"That was a pretty big area and it was because we lost the feed from TVA for a while," Markland said. In addition, Markland said there was the normal number of small outages caused when a large thunderstorm moves through the area.
The Unicoi County Sheriff's Office said it had seen some flooding Wednesday in the Springbrook area on the north end of the county, but said the high water had subsided. They also reported having a few outages in the area as well.
Greene County dispatchers said they had storms in their area, but said they had not received any reports of flooding or power outages. Around 7 p.m., Johnson County reported that they had not had any rain or storms.
A flash flood warning was issued for Scott County, Va., and Sullivan and Washington counties in Tennessee until 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, National Weather Service meteorologist Sam Roberts said.
"These are just your typical summertime thunderstorms. It really wasn't due to any type of big system or complex," Roberts said Wednesday. "They did kind of merge together, though, over Northeast Tennessee to create a pretty large area of widespread scattered showers and storms. I know the flooding has been the main thing. There's been a lot of areas with a lot of water. Several roads closed across Sullivan and Washington counties."
Roberts said quarter- to nickel-sized hail was also reported near Bristol and the Bluff City region."
Around 1.4 inches of total rainfall was recorded at Tri-Cities Regional Airport, Blountville, according to a National Weather Service representative. He said the radar estimated rainfall for the area Wednesday, though, was approximately around 3 to 4 inches.
According to the National Weather Service website, there is a chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms today and tonight. The high will be near 90 degrees, with the low around 67 degrees.
Friday, a 40 percent chance of rain is predicted during the day, dropping to a 30 percent chance Friday night. The high is expected to be around 86 degrees, with the low around 67 degrees.
Elizabethton Bureau Chief John Thompson contributed to this report.

If you weren't feeling decidedly creepy today avert your eyes for a top Chinese erotic filmmaker has declared he is to release the world's first 3D pornographic movie for the big screen, that's right, viewers will be getting their jollies in the privacy of a multiplex.
Attempting to return to the heights of the box office success he saw in the '90s from the $2.6 million grossing adult flick Sex and Zen, Chinese erotic filmmaker Stephen Shiu is jumping on the extra dimensional bandwagon with his upcoming cinematic release 3-D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy.

Whilst bare flailing limbs and carnal grunting might not be what the genii behind 3D technology had in mind when slaving over how to bring 3D to the masses, there is no denying that the pornographic industry can help launch technologies and open them to new audiences.
Due for release in May 2011, the 3D adult movie will cost $3.2 million to produce and is currently racing against Italian Director Tinto Brass to become the first 3D adult release to hit the big screen.
What do you think of 3D porn showing at the cinema, vile displays of needless nudity or artistic portrals of the human form? Let us know via the T3 Twitter and Facebook feeds.

Some Like It Hot
In the days following New Years Eve, we experienced what can only be described as, typical Australian summer weather. The temperature was pushing and exceeding 40C (104F) with no relief come sunset.
Many people enjoy this type of weather. Legions of wannabe-bronzed Aussies flock to the beaches. Well I'm not one of them.
I hate the hot weather. I hate the feeling of melting in my own skin. The heat induced headaches, the lack of brain function and general feeling of lethargy, the inability to sleep and with no hope of relief.
The thing is, there is absolutely nothing we can do to control the weather. Sure we can resort to coolers, fans and airconditioning. These things do little more than assist us to endure, they do not change the fact that Mother Nature is doing her level best to fry us alive if we step outside.
Having endured the onslaught of heat, the change to somewhat cooler weather was very welcome on my part. It was enduring the hot weather that got me thinking… So many things which happen we have no control over but must endure and bad reviews are one of them.
Reviews can determine if your latest release will sink or swim in shark infested waters. Getting great reviews is always a fantastic feeling. To know that someone greatly enjoyed your hard work and effort. The 'high' of a good review can be ridden for days and sometimes weeks. But what about when you get a bad review?
To me it seems bad reviews are like hot weather – an event to be endured. Let's face it, not everyone who reads your work is going to like it and some will dislike it enough to shout it from the rooftops. The consolation is, even if they didn't like it, at least they read. So turn on the aircon, get to work on the next project.

Just wanted to drop a line to say "hi" :) We are having a very, very hot summer as well. Our heatwave seem to be going on and on and on.
