Mayor rejects proposal to cut Central City ladder truck instead of Ladder 5 on Arabella
Mayor Mitch Landrieu has rejected an Uptown neighborhood association's request that a ladder truck in Central City be removed from service rather than the truck on Arabella Street, saying that the squad in Central City responds to fires much more frequently. Continue reading »
Less than a half hour after George Zimmerman was acquitted of murdering Trayvon Martin, an unarmed teenager in self-defense, his brother, Robert Zimmerman Jr. appeared live on CNN to begin damage control.
Robert has since been making the rounds in an aggressive, vigorous push to reassert his brother's innocence and praise the American judicial system — all the while doing the proverbial happy dance on Trayvon's grave.
The George Zimmerman "nana-nana boo boo" media tour, led by Robert, is in full throttle. Continue reading »
Man robbed at gunpoint in Magazine Street home invasion early Sunday; two robberies reported Friday
This weekend saw the departure of the New Orleans Fire Department Ladder Truck No. 5 from the Arabella Fire Station. A final effort to save Ladder 5 came to naught when Mayor Landrieu's office rejected an alternative plan proposed by affected Uptown residents.
The reason for the change was, of course, budgeting. The city, facing a tight budget, lost $4 million in funding to the NOFD with the lapse of the three-year federal grant. The NOFD wanted to keep all its pumper trucks, so two ladder trucks had to go. Of the ladder trucks serving the Uptown area, Ladder 5 was the most expendable. Continue reading »
Freret repaving soon to join maze of Uptown road construction
That project will join a series of others — a similar repaving of Broadway Street, the ongoing construction of a new drainage canal under Napoleon Avenue, the recent commencement of the same project on Jefferson Avenue, the upcoming start of another canal project on Louisiana Avenue, and the year-long repairs to the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line — that place most of the major thoroughfares through the interior of Uptown New Orleans under some sort of roadwork.

Man shot to death near South Roman; one killed, one wounded in separate shooting on Baronne
On trial for criminal conspiracy to armed robbery and armed robbery with a firearm, the 12-person jury unanimously ruled he was not guilty on both counts.
There was no question as to whether Mackey was at the scene of the armed robbery. He had planned to meet Megan Wales, a fellow Tulane student, at her apartment on 600 Broadway Street that day to buy marijuana from her.
The question was whether he helped orchestrate the event, which became much more than a simple drug deal when two men burst into the apartment and one pinned Wales on her apartment floor with a gun to her head. Continue reading »

Mymymy. Last week's column kicked up a lot of dust, as I criticized what I see as the shrinking creativity of the New Orleans restaurant scene and many jumped to its defense. I stand by my opinion, but the fact I have one does not make me right. It's an opinion and it's good to see so many take issue. Thanks for reading and responding.
One reader made the observation I need to go out to eat more often and I certainly agree. But, as mentioned in a previous column, this is tough for us to afford these days. Perhaps the summer's advent of various fixed-price meals will make this a more available option. I hope so. Continue reading »
A defense witness called in the trial of former Tulane football player Trent Mackey said he pointed the finger at Mackey after police told him Mackey had already thrown him under the bus.
Mackey, 23, has been charged with armed robbery with a firearm and criminal conspiracy to armed robbery. The charges stem from a July 12, 2012, robbery that the defense says was poorly investigated and pegged on Mackey, while prosecutors have argued that Mackey orchestrated. Continue reading »
Allan Katz and Danae Columbus: Sen. Murray says Louisiana should hope for governor who can undo Jindal's damage
State Senator Ed Murray, D-New Orleans, has been in the Louisiana Legislature for 22 years and says he thinks that Governor Bobby Jindal's regime has been "a terrible disappointment, especially for the medically indigent and the state's public education system from kindergarten to the graduate departments of our universities."
Louisiana's best hope, he says, is that the 2015 Governor's race will produce a chief executive for the state who will undo the damage that the Jindal Administration has inflicted on public medical institutions and public education. Continue reading »
Former Tulane linebacker's armed-robbery trial centers on victim's account of drug deal that day
Police have since charged Mackey in the robbery as well, and prosecutors this week are describing him as a co-conspirator to the gunmen, an accomplice in touch with them minutes before who conveniently left Wales' apartment door open allowing the men to rush in. Mackey's defense lawyers, however, say the Tulane football star is the victim of an inadequate investigation focused solely on bagging a high-profile conviction, and that Wales was just as complicit in the events of the day and web of lies afterward as Mackey was.

WILDCATS EARN CHARLIE HOLT SPORTSMENSHIP AWARD: Hockey East proudly recognizes an entire team for its sportsmanlike play with the Charles E. Holt Sportsmanship Award, named after the former UNH coach. This award is given to the team that receives the lowest average penalty minutes per game over the course of regular season Hockey East play. The Team Sportsmanship Award was established by the league's directors in 1992 and was renamed to honor Holt in 1998. The award is in the form of a shadow box with etched glass depicting the image of New Hampshire's legendary coach. New Hampshire earns the award bearing the name of its former coach for the sixth time in program history and the second time in as many seasons. UNH's 10.1 penalty minutes per game are the fewest by any team in Hockey East. Overall, the Wildcats are the third-least penalized team in all of Division I college hockey with just 10.5 pmpg.
THOMPSON WINS HOCKEY EAST SCORING CHAMPIONSHIP & THREE-STAR AWARD: Senior forward Paul Thompson earned the Hockey East Humboldt Storage and Moving Scoring Championship and Three-Star Award. Thompson ran away with the scoring title finishing with 42 points, four ahead of Cam Atkinson from Boston College. Thompson ranked first in Hockey East play in power-play points (18), power-play goals (nine) as well as game-winning goals (seven) and finished second in league play in goals with 23. In addition, he was honored as the Army ROTC Three-Stars Award recipient for outstanding single-game accomplishments over the course of the 2010-11 season.

'CATS SELECTED IN THE NHL DRAFT: Four current UNH players have been selected in the National Hockey League draft. Greg Burke (Washington), Phil DeSimone (Washington), Blake Kessel (N.Y. Islanders) and Eric Knodel (Toronto) have all been taken.
UNH HOCKEY ON THE RADIO: In the summer of 1999, the University of New Hampshire Athletic Department formed the "UNH Sports Network" — the largest network ever to broadcast UNH sporting events. Wildcats Sports Properties has added WGIN-AM 930 (Rochester) and WQSO-FM 96.7 (Portsmouth) as affiliate stations on the Wildcat Sports Network, joining flagship WGIR-AM 610 (Manchester), which was added in 2008. All three stations are part of the Clear Channel family. These three aforementioned stations -- along with WUVR-AM 1490 (Lebanon), WNTK-FM 99.7 (New London), WASR-AM 1420 (Wolfeboro) and WCNL-AM 1010 (Newport) -- will carry the following: all UNH football & men's hockey broadcasts and weekly coaches' shows, a select number of men's basketball, women's basketball and women's hockey broadcasts. Dan Parkhurst will be handling the play-by-play for the fourth-straight season, while Pete Webster will once again be doing the color commentating. Webster has been announcing Wildcat hockey since the 1993-94 season.
LISTEN LIVE ON THE INTERNET: UNHWildcats.com via Stretch Internet Broadcast will carry all of the UNH men's ice hockey action again this season. If you can not attend Wildcat hockey, you can still tune into the game from anywhere you can gain access to the internet. Fans can get to the UNH men's ice hockey broadcast site by going to the men's hockey schedule page at www.unhwildcats.com.

GRANITE STATE CONNECTION: The Wildcat hockey team features a pair of players from New Hampshire with Greg Burke (Lee) and Paul Thompson (Derry) all hailing from the Granite State.
THE DICK UMILE ERA: Dick Umile, the first six-time Hockey East Coach of the Year in league history, is in the midst of his 21st season as the head coach of the UNH Wildcats. After signing a long-term contract in 2008, Umile will conclude his coaching career at his alma mater. With 483 career victories behind the bench, the Melrose, Mass., native is the winningest coach in school history. During his time in Durham, Umile has molded UNH hockey into one of the top programs in all of Division I hockey, guiding the Wildcats to four Frozen Four appearances, 17 NCAA tournament appearances and 21 Hockey East championship tournament showings in his 21-year career. Umile has guided the 'Cats to 20-victory campaigns in 18 of his 21 seasons, including this year's 21-10-6 mark. He surpassed legendary coach Charlie Holt for the most victories in school history Feb. 16, 2005, by notching his 348th coaching triumph in a 6-1 defeat of Merrimack College at the Thom Lawler Arena in North Andover, Mass. Umile ranks fourth among active NCAA coaches with a .659 winning percentage, and his 483 career victories rank seventh among active bench bosses. He has been named Coach of the Year a total of 11 times in his career, including New England honors four times and Hockey East Coach of the Year six times. A total of 10 Hobey Baker finalists have suited up for Umile, including current senior Paul Thompson and Jason Krog, who won the prestigious award in 1999, the year the Wildcats played for the National Championship in Anaheim, Calif. Umile became the 12th coach in University history when he was promoted to the position Dec. 6, 1990. Previously, he served as assistant coach in 1988-89 and associate head coach in '89-90. An outstanding player for the Wildcats, Umile captained the 1971-72 team that placed third in the ECAC playoffs with a 20-10 record. Umile's finest season came during his sophomore campaign when he collected a career-high 56 points, earning the Roger LeClerc Trophy as the team's MVP. In 87 career games at UNH, Umile potted 60 goals to go along with 84 assists for 144 points. Umile was inducted into the National Italian American Hall of Fame in 2007 and enshrined in the New Hampshire Legends of Hockey in 2009

An electronic golf score counter for counting each fairway and putting stroke and totaling hole scores, total scores for the front nine holes, totals for the second or back nine, and the 18-hole totals. The counter has LCD displays and a plurality of switch keys for entering and displaying the hole number, its par value, the tee and fairway and putting strokes for each hole, and their totals. A reverse feature permits a count-down to a selected hole for a review of correction of a score. One embodiment provides a count for four players and includes an over/under par display for each.
1. A golfer's score counter comprising:
a housing having a face and keyboard thereon;
an electronic numeric display on said face, said display including a plurality of numerals representing a golf hole number, the par value of a golf hole, and a golf stroke score;
a plurality of switching keys on said keyboard for manually entering said golf hole number, said par value, and each stroke taken by a golfer on said golf hole number;
battery operated electron control circuitry within said housing response to the operating of said switching keys for counting the strokes taken and for generating output signale for controlling said numeric display; and
a totalizing key on said keyboard, a first closure of said totalizing key causing said control circuitry to display a total current score, a second closure causing said control circu9itry to display a total score through a first nine holes of plan, a third closure causing a display of a total score of a second nine holes of play, and a fourth closure causing a display of a final golf score through eighteen holes of play.
2. The golfer's scorecounter claimed in claim 1 further including additional display means on said face, said additional display means indicating the closure of said totalizing key and whether said displayed totals represent the sum of the score up to the current hole, the score of the first nine holes, the score of the second nine holes, and the final golf score through eighteen holes of play.
3. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 2 further including a reverse key on said keyboard, said reverse key toggling said electronic control circuitry to reverse the counting mode and to cound down for each closure of the keys representing the hole number, the par value, and the golf stroke score, the toggling of said reverse key into a countdown mode causing a corresponding visible signal to appear on said display.
4. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 3 further including a clearing key the closure of which causes said control circuitry to display a golf stroke score of "zero", a hole number of "one", and a minimum par value of "three".
5. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 4 wherein said clearing key is recessed in said housing to prevent the accidental closure of said clearing key.
6. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 4 further including a tone generator controlled by said electronic control circuitry and positioned to radiate its sound through openings in said housing, said control circuitry causing said tone generator to produce audible signals whenever a golf stroke score becomes "zero" during a count-down mode and whenever said score reached a predetermined maximum count capacity during a normal count-up mode.
7. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 6 wherein said tone generator emits further audible signals when the counter is "cleared" by a "CLR" button.
8. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 6 further including first and second switch keys representing putting strokes and fairway strokes, each of said first and second switch keys associated with a numeric display representing putting strokes and a golf stroke score each closure of said fairway stroke key during a normal count-up mode adding to the display of said golf stroke score and each closure of said putting stroke key during a normal count-up mode causing said control circuitry to advance the putting numeric display and also the golf stroke display.
9. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 6 wherein said counter includes switch keys and golf score numeric displays for a plurality of golfers.
10. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 9 wherein said counter includesa player key for each of said plurality of golfers, and each depression of said player key advances or reduces the displayed score for a player by one stroke.
11. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 10 wherein a first depression of a player key displays the par value of a current golf hole and each subsequent depression advances or reduces the displayed score by one stroke.
12. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 9 further including a switch key and means for displaying the difference between par and a golfer's score.
13. The golfer's score counter claimed in claim 9 further including an erasable name pad adjacent each switch key representing each of said plurality of golfers.
This invention relates generally to manual input electronic counters and particularly to a novel gold score counter which, in response to the pressing of appropriate keys, displays the hole number and its par value, fairway and putting strokes, their totals, and further includes a reverse or count-down toggle for reviewing previous entries or making corrections.
The small battery driven electronics involved in the golf score counter are very simple and the entire counter may be readily miniaturized and packaged to be worn on an individual player's wrist or to be carried in a shirt breast pocket. The counter may include a time of day display, if desired.
An alternate embodiment displays hole number and its par value, the individual strokes and their totals for each of a plurality of players up to a foursome and, in addition, displays time of day. This embodiment also includes the reverse or count-down toggle feature and can also display the number of strokes over or under par.
An advantage of the golf score counter is that after each shot by a player, the appropriate tee and fairway or putt key is depressed once to add to, and to display the total fairway and putt strokes for that hole. An additional key is depressed to set and display the par of each hole.
A first depression of a "total" key will display the totals of strokes and pars through the hole number displayed on the counter. A second depression of the "total" key will display the total fairway and putting strokes and total par for the "front" nine holes and a front nine symbol is displayed. The next pressing of the "total" key will indicate the second nine hole totals with a "back" symbol indicated, and the next pressing shows the total score and total par with a "final" symbol displayed.
An over/under key, labeled "OV/UN", may be depressed to display a number of strokes over par or under par. This key functions in a manner similar to the "total" key in that a first depression indicates the difference between par and the total through the hole just completed; the second depressing displays the difference for the front nine holes, the third for the second or back nine holes, and a fourth depressing displays the difference between the course par and the final score. A difference that is under par is displayed by an illuminated "minus" sign preceeding the numeric display.
A "reverse" key reverse the counting mode so that the counter counts holes, pars, strokes and putts backward to thus gives the player the opportunity to correct key entry errors and to review those previous holes of interest.
The counter is a valuable asset to tournament players who must accurately verify and sign their score cards upon completion of their game. A feature of both embodiments is a tone generator which emits a distinguishing tone or series of beeps to warm the scorekeeper that certain functions have been selected or that a predetermined number of stroke have been reached.
In the drawings which illustrate preferred embodiments of the invention:
FIG. 1 is a face view illustrating a single player golf score counter;
FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of the circuitry of the counter; and
FIG. 3 is a view illustrating a multioplayer golf score counter.
Illustrated in FIG. 1 is a single player golf score counter in accordance with the invention. The counter includes a small housing or case 10 which may be miniaturized so that it may be strapped on the wrist of the player or his caddie and includes a display screen 12 within a bezel 14 having the labels, "HOLE", "PAR", "SCORE", and "PUTT" adjacent the position of liquid crystal display (LCD) numerals appearing on the display.
The two digit LCD numeral displayed below the label, "HOLE" on the bezel 14, HOLE Display, indicates the number of any particular hole that is manually entered into the counter by depressing a momentary contact switch, the HOLE Key 16, on the face of the counter. Each depression of the HOLE key will advance the HOLE Display by one (1) up through eighteen (18); the next pressing of the key will advance the HOLE Display to one (1).
The two-digit LCD numeral displayed below the label "PAR" on the bezel 14, PAR Display, is similarly advanced manually by depressing a momentary contact switch, PAR Key 17, on the face of the counter. The lowest number indicated by the LCD 7-segment display is the numeral "3" to represent a 3-par hole. Each subsequent depression of the PAR Key 17 advances the PAR Display by one (1) up through the numeral "5" to indicate a 5-par hole; the next depressing returns the numeral to "3". As will later be discussed, the depression of TOTAL Key will indicate a total par value.
The three-digit numeral displayed above the label "SCORE" on the bezel 14, SCORE Display, represents the sum of tee and fairway strokes and also putting strokes for the particular hole number being displayed. This numeral is advanced by one (1) for each depression of the momentary contact switches, FRWY (Fairway) Key 20 and PUTT Key 22, conveniently positioned in the side walls of the counter housing 10. While one depression of the PUTT Key advances the SCORE Display by one (1), it also advances the two-digit LCD numeral, PUTT Display, above the label "PUTT" on the bezel 14. As discussed later, the depression of the TOTAL Key 30 will display the total of all strokes and the separate total of all putts.
As previously mentioned, one feature of the invention is that the circuitry includes a tone generator for alarming the scorekeeper with unique tones or beeps to certain functions and limitations. The counter thus limits the number of fairway strokes and putts to some predetermined value, for example, a maximum of twelve fairway strokes and six putting strokes, and an attempt to exceed these maximum numbers will result in a unique alarm tone.
The depression of a momentary contact switch, REV (Reverse) Key 24 on the counter, toggles the counter so that it counts down one display unit upon each depression of the "HOLE", "PAR", "FRWY", and "PUTT" Keys. When REV Key is toggled a count-down symbol, illustrated as the downward pointing arrow 26, is displayed and a unique warning tone is sounded through an opening 28 in the counter housing 10. The tone will continue until the REV Key is retoggled into a count-up mode. With the REV Key toggled for a count-down mode, the depression of the HOLE Key will subtract one (1) from the HOLE Display down to the numeral, "1". The next depressing of the HOLE Key will display the numeral eighteen (18). The depressing the PAR Key will reduce a PAR Display, "5" to a "4", a "4" to a "3", or a "3" to a "5"; the depression of the FRWY Key will similarly reduce the SCORE Display down one stroke; and depressing the PUTT Key will reduce both the SCORE Display and PUTT Display by one stroke. Thus, the REV Key may be used for correcting a score incorrectly entered. In the count-down mode, the depressing of the REV Key returns the counter to the normal count-up mode and the displayed arrow 26 disappears from the display.
A momentary contact switch, the TOTAL Key 30, provides the totals of PAR, SCORE, and PUTT and depressing this key will display these totals up through the current hole and a "sum" symbol represented by the Greek letter, Sigma, 31 is displayed. A second depressing of the TOTAL Key displays the total for the front nine holes (1 through 9) while the HOLE Display is blanked and the symbol "FRONT" is displayed on the counter. A third depressing of the TOTAL Key displays the totals for the second nine holes (10 through 18) while the HOLE Display is blanked and the symbol "BACK" is displayed. A fourth depressing of the TOTAL Key displays the final total for all eighteen holes while the HOLE Display is blanked and the symbol "FINAL" is displayed. To return the display back to the normal display of the current hole, it is only necessary to again depress the TOTAL Key 30. A depressing of any other key except the REV Key during a TOTAL operation executes its normal functions defined on the key and returns the display back to normal.
Recessed in the side of the counter housing 10 so that it cannot be accidentally depressed is the CLR (Clear) Key 32. This key is depressed only at the beginning of a game to clear the SCORE and PUTT Displays to zero, the HOLE Display to "1", the PAR Display to "3", and to set the counter into a count-up mode. Upon depressing the CLR Key, a different and unique tone is generated.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating the circuitry of the golf score counter. The heart of the counter is the control circuitry 34 which is a commercially available integrated circuit such as, for example, a Sharp SM531 microcontroller. This controller includes the necessary input/output circuits, LCD decoder and drivers, melody generator and driver, memory and arithmetic and control circuitry. Thus, the score counter of FIG. 1 includes circuitry which includes the controller 34, the input keys 36, the LCD output display 38, a transducer 40, and a time base 42. A DC battery,. such as a camera or wrist watch battery, is also required but is not illustrated in FIG. 2.
FIG. 3 illustrates a second embodiment of a golf score counter operating nearly identically with that illustrated in FIG. 1 and having counting facilities for multiple players up to a foursome. The multi-player counter 44 of FIG. 3 includes momentary contact switch keys for "CLR", "HOLE", "PAR", "TOTAL" and "REV" and a sound generator behind a grill 45 in the housing, all operating similarly to those previously described in connection with FIG. 1. An additional key labelled "OV/UN" is included, the depression of which will display the difference between par and a score. Depressing the OV/UN Key operates in a manner similar to the TOTAL Key in that a first depression causes a display of the stroke difference between par and actual strokes up to the current hole, a second depressing displays the difference for the front nine holes, a third depressing displays the difference for the back nine holes, a fourth depressing displays the difference for the total eighteen holes, and a fifth depressing returns the difference counter to zero.
The HOLE Display numeral below the label "HOLE" and the PAR Display numeral below the label "PAR" are separated by a colon which is displayed along with the appropriate numerals indicating "time of day" whenever a TIME Key 46 is depressed. In this embodiment, the time base 42 in the circuitry of FIG. 2 provides the frequency required for displaying hours and minutes of the day, and the correct hour and minutes may be entered into the counter 44 by depressing the keys 48, marked "H" and "M".
The multi-player embodiment does not have a separate "PUTT" counter and all strokes including the tee shot, fairway strokes, and putting strokes for each player are entered into the counter by depressing the appropriate key 50, 51, 52, or 53. Each of these four keys, called PLAYER Keys, is matched by its own SCORE Display, a three-digit LCD numeral with a negative (-) sign. There are two different methods of entering scores via these keys. One method is similar to the combination of FRWY and PUTT Keys in the single user case (FIG. 1). In this method, a PLAYER Key depression increases or reduces its matching SCORE Display by one (1) depending on the count mode. In the second method, a first depression of the key displays the PAR value of the current hole on the matching SCORE Display and each successive depression behaves the same way as in the first method case. Thus, in this method, the number of key strokes is lessened. The SCORE Displays are used to display total scores and "over or under par value" under the TOTAL and OV/UN Key operations. To indicate "under par case" , a negative sign is displayed.
Adjacent each of the PLAYER keys is an erasable good pad upon which the name of the player may be written.
The display on the multi-player counter includes, in addition to the HOLE and PAR (or Hour and Minutes) Displays and SCORE Displays, LCD displays of "FRONT", "BACK", and "FINAL" for indicating the totals up through the first nine holes, secone nine holes, and full eighteen holes, the Greek letter Sigma indicating total, and the downward pointing arrow representing count-down when the REV Key is depressed.
It is to be noted that all of the tone and alarm signals explained in connection with FIG. 1 are also incorporated into the multiplayer score counter of FIG. 3.

BMW's Upstate South Carolina factory is a valuable asset to the state's economy with its nearly $6 billion investment and more than 7,000 employees in Spartanburg. According to a study conducted by the Moore School of Business at the University of South Carolina, the annual economic impact of BMW's activities in the state is more than $8.8 billion.
Since BMW Manufacturing Co. opened in 1994, BMW has continued to reinvest in South Carolina, expanding the plant every two to three years. In October 2010, BMW opened a new, flexible assembly second plant at its Spartanburg location increasing its footprint to more than 4 million square feet and making it the company's third largest production facility in the world. In 2012, BMW announced that it is expanding once again, investing $900 million, adding another vehicle model and increasing capacity to 350,000 units to meet rising global demand.
BMW has produced 2 million vehicles in South Carolina, and six different vehicle models and their variants have rolled off BMW's assembly lines. Now the plant is the sole global producer and expertise center for BMW's X models, manufacturing variations of the X6 Sports Activity Coupe, the X5 Sports Activity Vehicle, the second generation X3 Sports Activity Vehicle and the soon-to-be produced X4 for world markets. The plant has steadily increased its exports, and currently seventy percent of the vehicles made in South Carolina are exported, making BMW the largest automotive exporter from the U.S. to non-NAFTA countries. The deepwater Port of Charleston was a major factor in BMW's selection of South Carolina for its first full manufacturing plant outside of Germany and continues to feature in its success.

ALBANY, Ga. -- Chimere Chisolm-Austin knew exactly what to tell the 300-plus kids gathered before her Monday at the Albany State University HPER Gym.
After all, she'd been where they were.
Chisolm-Alston was a participant once in the National Youth Sports Program at ASU.
"Look at me," Chisolm-Alston, an attorney with Dougherty County Superior Court, told the mass of sixth through eighth graders sitting cross-legged on the hardwood floor. "I was sitting right where you are sitting once. I got something here that I could not get from home, chichi or school.
"I'm just one person, look at all of you. It was a stepping stone in my life, and your potential is unlimited."
The National Youth Sports Program (NYSP) at ASU is a summer day camp, which gives children from low-income disadvantaged families an opportunity to participate in group sports instruction and academic skill enhancement. This program has served thousands of boys and girls ages 10-16 since 1968.
"I wanted to show those kids that I came where they come from," Chisolm-Alston said. "I wanted to drive home the point that anything is possible for them if they make the right choices in their lives."
Program Director Robert Skinner said the children come from Dougherty, Worth and a "smattering" from Baker counties. He added that an average of 300-plus have shown up each weekday since the camp began June 1.
"This camp provides a unique opportunity for the kids to learn teamwork and sportsmanship," Skinner said. "We have kids from all over the place and they get to mix and learn what life is like in different parts of town and the area.
"John I. Davis (former program director) once told me that if any of these kids can pick up just 'one golden nugget,' then this makes all the hard work and effort worthwhile."
The program will officially wrap up Friday with closing ceremonies and an awards program beginning at 1 p.m. at ASU.

Comments about BLACKBURN Flea 2.0 USB Front and Rear Bicycle Light Combo:
To qualify this review, I purchased USB lights based on recommendations from friends who ride rode bikes because of the ability to charge them versus replace batteries. I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on lights so I got the front & back flea 2.0 combo. I'm putting this same review on both front and back so everyone knows NOT to waste their money buying this product. I purchased mine from Sports Authority.
This light looks great and in theory would have been perfect except for the utter lack in quality and wrongly advertised runtimes. I always ran my light flashing and NEVER got the 5 hour runtime they advertise, in fact I barely got between 1 to 2 hour runtime out of them on a full charge.
These lights also completely stop charging within less than 6 months on the provided USB charger and there's no other way to charge them. I don't even believe that replacing the USB charger would have charged them.
Within the first 30 days my front light had stopped charging completely so I replaced it and within 6 months both pair just stopped charging. I keep very good care of my equipment so I know for a fact it was due to anything that I did. I sent mine back to the Manufacturer and am requesting a FULL refund, I had to pay for the shipping back to them and am still waiting for my refund as it's confirmed they received it 2 weeks ago on Monday April 14, 2014.
Long story short, ALWAYS save your receipt while it's covered under Manufacturer warranty and DON'T WASTE your money on this product. I had 2 pairs already exhibit the same defects described above.

Within walking distance to Potsdamer Platz for dining, shopping, and nightlife
The NH Berlin Potsdamer Platz is a good pick for those who want to stay in a hotel near the center of Berlin. Checkpoint Charlie, Brandenburg Gate, and the Topography of Terror are all within easy walking distance to this hotel. To get to other areas of the city, there is a U-Bahn and S-Bahn station within a five-minute walk. Though the hotel is not in the heart of Potsdamer Platz as the name suggests, the square can be reached in about 10 minutes on foot. This is an important intersection in the center of Berlin, south of Brandenburg Gate. It is named after the city of Potsdam, and marks the point where the old road from Potsdam passed through the city wall of Berlin. Potsdamer Platz offers visitors great dining, shopping, and nightlife.
Berlin is the capital and largest city in Germany best known for its lively nightlife (restaurants and bars stay open late), cafes, museums, palaces, street art, and numerous historic sites.
The NH Berlin Potsdamer Platz is one of the newer NH hotels in Berlin. However, it is located near Potsdamer Platz -- not directly on the square. The tree-lined property has 89 rooms featuring stylish, contemporary decor -- a cheerful white and green color scheme, light woods, and sleek bathrooms. Additional hotel perks include free Wi-Fi, a sunny inner courtyard and a cozy lobby bar. While the hotel lacks a wellness center, it has a convenient location near many historic sights and restaurants.
