The combined concert of the Harvard and Yale musical clubs last night proved a great success in every way. Symphony Hall was crowded with an audience that took advantage of every chance for applause. The men on the clubs gave their selections with fine spirit and the rule of "no encores" was broken early in the programme. After that every number was encored most enthusiastically. The Harvard clubs showed up very well in comparison with those of Yale. The Mandolin Club did especially well and it was their excellent rendering of Delibes's "Pas des Fleurs" which called forth the first encore. The Glee and Banjo Clubs also gave some fine selections but they did not seem to have as much volume as the Yale Clubs. The Yale Glee Club had two very good soloists whose work relieved any possible monotony in the programme. The most impressive thing of the evening was the singing of "Bright College Years" and "Fair Harvard" by the combined Glee Clubs, during which every person in the audience stood.

Watch Tori Spelling's Daughter Hattie Take Her First Steps (VIDEO)
The adorable Hattie, the second youngest of Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott's brood, surprised everyone at her first birthday party when she stretched her legs and took her first steps!
"Oh my God she's walking," exclaimed the proud momma. "We're screwed now."
Hattie didn't go far in her rainbow tutu and flowered headband, but a step is a step, and Tori and her hunky hubby couldn't be more thrilled! Tori explained that so far, little Hattie has tackled walking at a younger age than her two older siblings, 4-year-old Stella and 6-year-old Liam, bringing her famous 90210 star mom to tears with her accomplishment.
Hattie's huge milestone happened in front of friends and family at her Alice in Wonderland-themed birthday party. The guests dressed as their favorite Wonderland characters — Tori as the Queen of Hearts and daddy Dean as the Mad Hatter. The lovely lawn party was complete with a life-sized chess board, the talking door knob fixed to a tree, and the cutest colorful top hat centerpiece in the history of top hat centerpieces.
We are so proud of Tori's baby girl and wish her continued success in the next big steps of her life. Baby Finn, 8 months, should probably think about catching up to his big sis!

Tool shows benefits of education in communities
HUNTINGTON -- The positive effects of education may now be clearer than ever, thanks to a Web-based tool called the Common Good Forecaster.
The tool, developed by United Way of America in conjunction with the American Human Development Project, is the topic of much discussion by some local advocates. It will be part of the focus of an upcoming United Way of the River Cities community leaders luncheon on Friday, July 24.
"It's an excellent tool," said Laura Gilliam, executive director of United Way of the River Cities. "Oftentimes we talk about, well, what if somebody graduates from high school? What would those effects be in the community? What if somebody got a college degree or more people lived here who had college degrees? What this does is actually allow you to visually see, as well as hear, those numbers and what that effect is."
Some local United Way members have been using the new tool since it was unveiled at a national conference in May. The forecaster can be used by anyone by visiting www.liveunited.org/forecaster.
The forecaster allows users to look at particular states or counties and see how different levels of education benefit health, financial stability, achievement and community involvement. The tool uses estimates from sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau and the National Center for Health Statistics.
"As soon as I looked at this forecaster, it really put a visual to what types of problems we have in our community and how small changes can make drastic improvements," said Cassey Bowden, director of resource development and marketing for United Way of the River Cities.
Bowden said having a visual that shows people how just a little more education can decrease even crime is powerful.
"It gives people a little more initiative and drive," she said.
Gilliam said areas across life improve by just having one more year of schooling.
For example, the more people who further their education, the more people vote, she said.
According to the Common Good Forecaster, if all adults in Cabell County moved up one education level, the unemployment rate would drop by 1.5 percent in Cabell County and personal median income would increase from $27,053 to $34,363. Personal median income would increase from $25,541 to $33,483 in Wayne County.
Moving up one level means those without high school diplomas would graduate, those with high school degrees would get some college, and those with some college would earn four-year degrees.
Improved education levels can add as much as 2.2 years to one's life expectancy in Lincoln County, and decrease the murder rate by four per 100,000 residents in Cabell County, according to the United Way.
"It's pretty tremendous," Gilliam said. "It makes these connections we don't always think about."
Anyone interested in attending the invitation-only community leaders luncheon should call the local United Way office at 304-523-8929. The luncheon will be at noon, Friday, July 24, at Frankie D's.

Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes said: "The pitch is slightly better condition than we thought. We're trying to think what their approach to it is.
"For me, they'll come and throw caution to the wind and have a right go at us early, we've got to be ready for that.
"It is a very good lead but we know there's still work to be done in this tie. Games can turn very quickly through lack of discipline or lack of approach to it.
"We don't need to be brilliant but we do need to be professional and we do need to be wary that we have to bring individual performances to the game.
"Watching the game back [first leg] I don't think they were overly physical, I just think there was a frustration and they lost their way a wee bit and that came out in some poor discipline from their players towards the end.
"For our part we just have to make sure we're fully focused and don't get involved in anything."

Outside DEAL OF THE MONTH: Arcteryx S240 WARP HarnessSRP �65 - Now Only �49!, added Aug/2009, see all Outside Ltd news & reviews
announcement by Outside Ltd

© Arcteryx
In weaving terms WARP is the set of horizontal yarns through which something called WEFT is woven vertically. In making clothing the WEFT always had to be less strong than the WARP because it didn't have to be stretched. This applies to webbing manufacture as well with the horizontal WARP being the main load bearing part of the material and the WEFT holding this together vertically. The S240 has had the WEFT removed from its webbing.
What does this elimination of the WEFT in the S240 harness mean?
- Incredibly light weight - the S240 weighs just 248g.
- Packable - the S240 comes in a 15 x 15 cm box.
- Comfortable - no padded narrow tape around the waist, the whole waist belt is load bearing and spreads the load evenly.
- Non insulating - You wont get as hot under the harness as there is no foam padding.
- Freedom of movement - The light weight and thin nature of the harness mean that you almost don't notice it when climbing.
What are the harnesses other features?
- Removable/Reversible moulded gear loops - Rack your gear facing forward or backwards.
- Self locking buckle - Easy to use self locking buckle means you don't have to worry about whether you've doubled back.
- Wear marker - This shows orange when the harness has seen prolonged use and needs to be retired.

Say no to test, lose blood
Drivers who drink this Halloween weekend could be facing a blood draw if they refuse a breath test.
It's part of a the Corpus Christi Police Department's trial "no-refusal" weekend during which the magistrate on duty can issue a search warrant to draw blood if he or she believes there is probable cause to do so.
Police in Arlington, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Richardson and Plano already have taken part in similar "no-refusal" weekends this year, while Corpus Christi will join Austin by testing it out Halloween. Local police will do so from 9:30 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
Any person suspected of DWI will have to take a blood test after the magistrate signs off on it, Sgt. Marc Harrod said.
"This is a trial to see how it goes," he said. "We ran numbers on this and our refusal rate for taking the Breathalyzer test is 80 percent because people know they will just get a suspended license if they refuse and they will not get a DWI."
Driving while intoxicated is a Class B misdemeanor with a possible $2,000 fine and up to 180 days in jail. Drivers who refuse the Breathalyzer typically go to the City Detention Center before they are taken to the Nueces County Jail and their driver's licenses are suspended, Capt. John Houston said. The district attorney's office determines whether there is enough evidence to charge someone with DWI.
Houston said the dilemma for police has been getting the DWI charge to stick in court because there is not enough hard evidence, such as a blood test, to go with the ticket.
The reason police don't work to get blood samples every time is because a phlebotomist is needed to draw the blood, Harrod said.
District Attorney Carlos Valdez's office is paying for a phlebotomist to be on standby at the City Detention Center to take the blood samples Friday and Saturday, Harrod said.
Of the 20 percent who opted to take the Breathalyzer test, blood-alcohol level results registered .20 -- more than double the legal limit of .08 -- more than half of the time, Harrod said.
The police department averages about 1,000 DWI arrests annually and has made about 700 DWI arrests already this year, Houston said. As many as five of the city's 16 traffic fatalities this year have been alcohol-related, he said.
The incidence of drunken driving typically increases during the holidays, he said.
"Drunken driving in Corpus Christi is a huge problem year-round and it gets particularly worse as November approaches," Houston said.
Police also are considering doing other "no-refusal" weekends during holidays that see increases in drunken driving, such as Thanksgiving, New Year's Eve, Christmas Day and Labor Day.
"We're going to see if it is effective first," Houston said. "Some people don't have a problem drinking a beer or even five beers and getting behind the wheel of their vehicle, so we're going to see if we can impact that and drive down those DWI numbers."

By Jim GaramoneAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, June 23, 2011 President Barack Obama assured 10th Mountain Division soldiers today that the drawdown in Afghanistan is not precipitous, and that gains made there will be sustained.
Obama announced last night that 10,000 service members will be withdrawn from Afghanistan by the end of the year, and the remaining 23,000 surge forces will be home by September 2012. He traveled to Fort Drum, N.Y., today to discuss his decision and thank the troops and their families.
"Because of your outstanding work, what we've been able to do is train an additional 100,000 Afghan soldiers so that they can start carrying on the fight," the president told the soldiers. "Because of what you've done, areas like Kandahar are more secure than they have been in years. Because of you, we're now taking the fight to the Taliban, instead of the Taliban bringing the fight to us."
Because of that pressure on the Taliban, there are signs that members may be interested in participating in a political settlement, Obama said, which ultimately is going to be critical for consolidating that country.
"As I look around this room, I suspect that some of you joined the military after 9/11 because you had seen fellow Americans suffer at the hands of [Osama] bin Laden," the president said. "When we got him, and as we keep on driving to get the rest of them, it's because of the work and the sacrifice that you guys have made."
The 10th Mountain Division has lost people throughout its many deployments. Obama said Americans should be aware of the sacrifices service members and their families have made in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"The reason that I know many of you continue to do the outstanding work that you do is not only love of country, but it's also love for each other and your commitment to making sure that those sacrifices were not in vain," he said. "So the main message I have for all of you here today is that the American people understand the sacrifices you're making. They understand the sacrifices that your families are making. Our job is not finished."
Even with the drawdown, Obama said, there still will be 68,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan after September 2012. "Frankly, the 10th Mountain Division is still going to be represented there until we have fully transferred to the Afghan military and security forces," he said. "But I hope that all of you can both take pride in what you've done over the past years, but also understand that there's a future there that is brighter, not only for the Afghan people but most importantly, for American security."
The president thanked the soldiers and their families for their dedication and sacrifices. "Nothing gives me more honor than serving as your commander in chief," he said. "And to all of you who are potentially going to be redeployed, just know that your commander in chief has your back."

The opinions expressed in the following comments do not necessarily reflect those of the U.S. Department of Defense.
I served as R20450E in the Air Force when I was Young, and Believe our Troops are the Best and most dedicated in the world but at the same time I believe Bush and Obama has them tied to an Almost impossible position, Just as the
Soviets were unable to succeed with these people (I believe they only cry wolf for assistance and as soon as we aren't looking will revert right back to their prior practices of terrorism and opium Production) I believe we have to demand an end to0 thedir terrorism activities, but I think It could be better achieved by Us Training their people-THEN affirmative expect them to carry out the ground duties, and be held accountable or learn what "rretribution", is.

For Mailani & Lei, it's hard to believe that it's been over ten years now since they first met at Maryknoll Schools. Back then it seemed like there were no real worries, life was pretty easy except for homework, tests and basketball. In fact, if it weren't for basketball, they may not have become such good friends. But no one could've guessed that there was so much more than basketball that would bond the two girls in friendship for years to come.

The new building is situated directly opposite an existing 1930's warehouse, which was completely renovated in the first phase of the project to bring the building to current code standards. The plan also calls for an urban, pedestrian-friendly space between the two structures that provide convenient access between departments. The tree-shaded, native landscaped space will include seating areas and an evaporative cooling water feature that will rain from the façade of the new building.
"Our design objectives for this project were twofold," says David Goodale, design principal at Gonzalez│Goodale. "We wanted to employ sustainability strategies that would meet Gold LEED standards and as such, serve as a learning example for Pasadena's emerging sustainable design program. Secondly, we wanted to design a building that added visually interesting architecture to a utilitarian, industrial area. Though the building's exterior design is contemporary, it echoes the existing 1930's building to create a sense of balance on the campus."
The Department of Water and Power building, when complete, will include an expanded emergency operations center designed to employ the most advanced communication technology. Community leaders, including police and fire department officials, will meet here in the event of a disaster. The city's relocated water quality lab and utility network will also be housed within the building.
Known for designing building with energy-efficient features and highly renewable materials, the team of architects at Gonzalez Goodale collaborated with both its in-house sustainability team and consultants to design a building that would meet the Gold LEED benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of a high performance green building. Environmentally conscious features of the building include extensive daylighting of interior footprints, native landscaping that does not require irrigation systems, exterior screening systems that capture and dissipate heat into the atmosphere prior to entering the building, pervious paving to capture rainwater, a roofing system which reflects the visible light spectrum thus reducing the heat load within the building, and a walk-off main entry to minimize and control cross-contamination of indoor air with pollutants. Ventilation will also be increased and the system monitored for proper air quality.
According to Armando Gonzalez, principal in charge of the project, transportation was a key consideration in offsetting energy consumption. "To promote sustainable means of transportation, bicycle racks will be installed and parking preference will be provided for vanpools, carpools, and hybrid alternative fuel vehicles." Staff parking will be located to the north of the building while city vehicles will park on the western side. Larger rigs will be sheltered from the elements by a photovoltaic array of approximately 7,000 square feet, reducing energy use by over 12 percent.
Of all the materials used in the project, 30 percent will be of recycled content, 10 percent will be mined, extracted and manufactured within 500 miles of the project, at least 50 percent of all wood will come from sustainable harvested trees and 75 percent of construction waste will be recycled and diverted.

S.F. Bay waterbird survey breaks record — again!

Surveys of waterbirds at the Richardson Bay Audubon Center & Sanctuary have set record highs three times in a row. Monday's jaw-dropping total was 13,339 birds in the Sanctuary. Again, they were mostly Scaup, which were for the most part resting (probably after gorging on herring eggs?), and they seemed to be concentrated in the […]

I encourage you to talk with me about the possibility of writing a letter of recommendation for you. You should not ask, "Will you write me a letter of recommendation?" but instead, "Can you write me a strong letter of recommendation?" If I cannot, then I will tell you, and you can decide if someone else is in a better position to write you a letter. If I can, then I will happily agree to do so, but I will ask some things of you:
1) To fill out a general form that I have prepared.
2) To provide a recent copy of your BSU transcript and highlight all of the courses that you have taken with me. The transcript need not be an official copy.
3) To provide a copy of your resume (if you have one).
4) If you are applying to graduate school, to provide a copy of your GRE scores (if available).
5) To assess and convey to me your relevant knowledge, skills, and characteristics by filling out a second form. These will differ somewhat depending on whether you are asking for a letter for graduate school or a letter for job placement.
You can provide the above either in hard copy (in a folder with your name on it) or electronically (each item's name should begin with your last name).
It takes time for me to write a good letter for you. Please allow a minimum of 3 weeks for me to complete your letter. Remember that the ability to plan ahead is one of the topics I may address in your letter.
[This strategy for developing letters of recommendation is adapted from: Appleby, D. C. (2005). A developmental strategy to write effective letters of recommendation. Observer, 18(5), 36 ff.]

More than two dozen Minnesota schools are no longer considered failing, according to new state rankings released Tuesday morning.
The 27 schools were able to shed the failing label by boosting student achievement and reducing achievement gaps between white and minority students.
"Today's release is about hard work taking place every single day in our schools to ensure the success of each child," said Education Commissioner Brenda Cassellius.
Officials with the Minnesota Department of Education said the latest school data will allow 17 schools to come off the state "Priority" list and 10 schools leaving the "Focus" list. Under Minnesota's new school ranking system, Priority schools are lagging in overall student achievement; Focus schools are failing to close the achievement gap.

El Americano del Al Andalus: Onyewu @ Malaga CF
I don't understand why people completely write him off. He did have a bad game against Antigua but he hadn't played in months due to injury. I felt he was having a great season last year before his injury and if he can stay healthy who knows what might happen. I'm not sure if he will be able to make it back to the national team but i wouldn't be shocked either way. Lets just let this season play out and see what happens.
When he plays against Messi and Ronaldo and Villa and Soldaldo and Falcao and helps keep a cleansheet, suddenly all his haters will be d#%% riding him again. I greatly look forward to his season. As you said he was having an amazing season at Sporting. He was scoring goals and shored up their defense.
How about Andagoochia: Onyewu at Malaga
I'm assuming you are correct and Malaga is in Andalucia...
It's about as "in Andalusia" as one can get.
Must take advantage of this rare opportunity; otherwise a lifetime of regret may follow.
I refer, of course, to the possibility of working "Andoguchia" into the thread title.
Still makin grown men look like little kids
LOL Saviola looks like he can fit in Gooch's pocket.
"I got Saviola in my pocket..... literally."
http://www.uefa.com/uefa/footballfi...ewsid=1857626.html#prize money clubs withheld
Malaga's Champions League money not cleared yet. along with Sporting Lisbon's for that matter
That sucks...
Malaga could be in deep shit. They're on a list of 23 teams being investigated for FFP violations. Currently, UEFA is withholding any CCL prize money. There's also a possibility they'll block CCL TV money, and suspend players bought in previous transfer windows.
If they do not comply this year, there is a strong possibility Gooch and other recent transfers will be indefinitely suspended.
If it's not excessive injuries or indifferent coaches, it's club finances in the toilet that take a toil on our boys abroad. Could he be loaned back to Sporting?
Hah, Sporting is in the same exact situation. Its more likely that Malaga will sell off some assets and show UEFA a plan to become solvent.
Reports in Spain supposedly state Beckham & Lalas will make an investment duo & bid for Malaga..
Thats the piece on Fox Soccer. This is so incredibly hard to believe but it would be something if those two had 75% of a Spanish club.
exporting Lalas to Spain. what'd they do to piss us off?
Here we go again, Gooch not in the squad for the game against Levante today:
Could this be because FIFA may void the transfer?
& why would they do that?
read the previous posts in this thread
They might keep him out/suspend him. I dont think they would completely void the transfer. Also why suspend Onyewu but not Roque Santa Cruz? He started on the bench vs Levante..
anti-American bias.
Separate names with a comma.

A Guide to Working with a Rescue Group
Although the rescue effort goes on all over the United States, it is a volunteer effort done by both breeders and Airedale enthusiasts alike. There is no one "right" way to do rescue, every rescue group puts different levels of time, energy and money into the effort. You should make an educated decision to work with a rescue group and ask questions as you would when purchasing an Airedale from a breeder. When working with these groups you are not making the same financial commitment up front, but you are investing your time and making an emotional and long-term financial commitment to the dog. When the rescue program meets the following terms they show genuine concern for the dog as well as for the health and safety of your family:
Any Airedale coming from rescue MUST be spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
The dog should be current for all vaccinations, recently tested for heartworm, and currently on heartworm preventative.
The dog should have been examined by a licensed veterinarian.
A rescue person should have been hands-on with the dog and evaluated the dog for behavior and temperament prior to placement.
Additional Points to Ask
Has the dog been fostered in a home situation? What are the dog's house manners like? Housebroken? Does the dog jump on counters? Does the dog steal food? etc.
What ages of children has the dog been exposed to? Many Airedales are fine with older children but may resent a toddler pursuing them. Young Airedales in particular often play too rough for small children.
Will the rescue group assist you with problem solving after the adoption?
Will the rescue group take the dog back if you decide for any reason the adoption isn't working out?
In return, you should be prepared to invest your time and energy to making the adoption work. Rescue Airedales are diamonds in the rough and they need to learn to trust and to find the joy in life again.
Every Airedale will also benefit from obedience training. It will help their confidence AND help them bond with you.

Interesting to ponder - but avoid letting it seduce you into thinking something is really there, just because you want it to be.
I get what you're saying, Martin. My gut feeling has long been that proto-consciousness is everywhere. I can't rationally defend the notion and I'm not sure I can tell the difference between my gut feelings and wishful thinking. Probably not Robinson Crusoe there. The experiments with proto-life in that Martin Hanczyc Ted Talk I posted are a massive eye-opener and I might rethink yet - the way those little chemical blobs behaved was amazing!

If you enjoy the posts, Larry, then I've done my job! It's like playing - you throw something out there and hope some people relate to it.
I don't feel a great need to write a book (this week :). I'm satisfied that some hopefully cogent or useful thoughts have gone out into the meme pool.

August 21, 2009: The U.S. SOCOM (Special Operations Command) has been adding armor and anti-armor capabilities to its 75th Ranger Regiment. Although the three battalion of the regiment are trained as airmobile and parachute light infantry, they have their own modified (armored) hummers (GMV-R) for ground operations where the rangers need that kind of mobility. These hummers have been armed with Viper anti-tank missiles, which are also very useful when some precision long range fire power is needed, and army GPS guided shells or rockets, or air force smart bombs, are not available. One ranger company worth of Stryker wheeled armored vehicles (14 of them) has been assigned to the 75th Regiment, and these are being used in Afghanistan. Rangers have also used MRAPS. In general, rangers don't like to move around in armored vehicles, but will do so when it's necessary to get to the objective in one piece.
I am a retired Marine so I have no real mech experience other than some training at 29 Palms . I was out before the Iraq thing but I did have an Army friend tell me that the saying was:
?They would rather have a sister who was a whore than be mechanized?.
He said that most of the time was spent in the motor pool pulling PMs on vehicles and equipment that had not moved or been used from t he last time they performed a PM. They faced training restrictions based on money budgeted for fuel etc.

What is the significance of this quote from A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius?
"We shouldn't think such sad thoughts, that we should just pick a bright star in the black sky and think of her, and then, to find another, close by, and think of my dad." (Eggers 220)
2 Answers | Add Yours
This quote relates to one of the principle themes of this book, which is that of death and its acceptance. The quote relates to the author's mother and father, and how he is slowly coming to accept the death of his parents and move on in his life. The "thoughts" that the author says should not be thought of are those that focus on darkness and pessimisim, whereas, in an excellent analogy, he describes his stage of grief as being able to look at a black sky, and pick out to bright shining stars to represent his parents. Rather than focusing on the grief and inexorable sadness of the situation, therefore, he is able to move on and value his parents' lives for what they represented and who they were. We can only stay despondent for so long.
This quote therefore represents the moving on of the author as he begins to move away from grief and sadness and is able to contemplate his parents and their death in a different way. He moves from seeing the blackness of the night sky to being in awe at the beauty of the stars.
This quote basically says that you have to always focus on the good things, not the bad things. If you never think of the good things, you're wasting your life. You always have to find something good in something bad.

The Cottage Farm is an amazing vintage Etsy store, with gorgeous product photography. The merchandise is right up my alley and I hope yours too. Krissy arranges her vintage finds into thematic collections, often with literary associations. After a little break to refresh her inventory, Krissy has two new collections coming this week.
The Hunt Collection: I think I'm so deep inside my love of all things sea-related that I don't even notice my home is full of little nods to the sea. From sea pebbles and shells to driftwood and glass floats, I do it without noticing. Of course, I'm a Cancerian, so I think it's part of my make-up by both nature and nuture! So, The Hunt Collection, named after the Cape Cod writer Peter Hunt, deeply appeals to me, conjuring both sea-faring voyages and relaxed beach days.
The Zola Collection: Named after Emile Zola, the concept for the Zola collection is the haberdashery of the Ladies Paradise: Lush textures, enticing patterns and a bit of the exotic - all well worn and comfortable with a dash of the thrill of the bazaar. I'm really quite smitten with the chandelier!
Visit Cottage Farm here and, read the Cottage Farm blog and follow Krissy on Twitter here for store updates and more!
Note: Sponsor introduction posts are offered to long-term sponsors. Fit and integrity are important to me and all sponsors are handpicked to fit with my content and readers.

Naked Kombat features muscle studs who wrestle, suck and fuck their way to victory. Unscripted wrestling, punching, kicking and ass slapping.
Returning to the mat is the big dick all-american wrestler Doug "The Destroyer" Acre. Doug won his first match against Dominic "The Dominator" Pacifico and he's planning on continuing his reign. The military badass Damian "The Decimator" Taylor doesn't care if Doug won his first match or not, he's determined to take his ass down to the mat and fuck him senseless after he wins. The rounds heat up quick as The Destroyer slams Damian to the mat and locks him in a leg cradle. The Decimator gets pissed and throws Doug to the ground, shoving his balls right in The Destroyer's face. Both guys have their eyes set on victory, will The Decimator have the determination and drive to beat his big dick opponent or will his ass get "Destroyed" by Doug's monster cock?

Letter: Many thanks
Jackie Bennett, Naples
Many thanks
On behalf of the board of Angels Undercover, our donors and all the children we support, I wish to thank the Jewish Federation of Collier County for honoring our nonprofit organization with the 2012 Human Needs Award.
This award was created to bring awareness to our community of human and health organizations in Collier County that provide critical programs and services to vulnerable populations.
Angels Undercover was started two years ago to promote education by providing underwear, socks and school uniforms to those who would otherwise come to school inadequately dressed. We help them arrive at school ready to learn.
To date, we have donated more than 7,500 items of clothing.
With 64 percent of our elementary students classified as economically needy as determined by the Free & Reduced Lunch Program, we have a big challenge ahead.
Our goal for the next three years is to provide clothing to students in all of the 15 schools that need our help the most. The Human Needs Award will help us towards our goal.
We wish to salute the Jewish Federation for its ongoing support of the many worthwhile agencies in Collier County and thank it for the generous donation.
People interested in joining our cause can receive more information by calling 239-596-0690.

To the Editor:
I have been a second homeowner and part-time resident of The Valley for more than 30 years and cherish the wonderful memories of this beautiful place and its formerly abundant facilities. Considering the events of the past few years, however, I am reminded of the popular TV show, "Laugh-In," which used the catch phrase, "Sock it to me! Sock it to me! Sock it to me!"
Last week I received the Sugarbush Golf Club brochure including the new 2007 fee schedule, which described a 600 percent increase for golfers who play three times a week, Monday through Friday. The program is ironically described as "Give More," with a lame description of the so-called benefits, which makes one wonder exactly who's giving more, the club or the golfer.
Last summer, letters to <MI>The Valley Reporter<D> complained about the hostility of Vermont real estate taxes toward second home owners, particularly in areas such as The Valley where the high percentage of non-resident property owners with no school children cause the three Valley towns to be classified "rich" towns. Residing in Fayston, where there are no municipal services at all (no water, sewer, police, fire, library, recreation, etc.) but real estate taxes are four times higher than the actual local and county expenses, the thrust of one letter writer's advice to a friend, "Don't come to Vermont," is the unhappy message to all Vermont second homeowners.
Responses to those letters included a sympathetic letter from Win Smith, who emphasized the benefits of tourism and second home ownership to The Valley and the entire state. Apparently the tide has turned, as we watched the facilities at SHARC deteriorate, lift ticket prices skyrocket and more and more local businesses failing - and now Win Smith himself telling us, in effect, "We don't want you here."
There was a time when The Valley had a lot to offer; little by little it has been taken away, and all that's left is "Sock it to me!"

Hotel Mercure aux Fleurs
Our hotel was perfectly situated for us on the Promenade de Etats Unis, an easy walk to the old town, the harbor, rue de France, and Castle Hill. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel was spotless. It even offered a discount on chaises
and umbrellas at the private beach across the street. Coffee and tea supplies were replenished every day. The combination tub and shower was not large,but was sufficient and the bathroom as a whole was clean, functional, and attractive.
Great Location
Great location, on the water, near Old Nice and close to Castle Hill. Also walking distance to numerous restaurants in Old Nice.
Also one of the nicest bathrooms I have ever had--supe clean and plenty of room for all my stuff.

FPS staff report
April 22, 2013
The Suburban Garden Club celebrated the 50th anniversary of the club with a luncheon at the Ashton House Museum in Carrollton April 17.
The club was chartered by Vickie Nign in 1963, who was installed as club president in February that year. In attendance at the celebratory luncheon were 18 past presidents of the club and current president Linda Moreland.
The club program book was recently awarded second place in the state of Ohio for the small division at the National Convention which Moreland and member Pat Roudebush attended.
Club members plant and maintain plantings at Kiddie Land Park, the Safety Building, and planting beds along SR 332 beside the McCook House Civil War Museum. This year they will also maintain plantings in front of the former JC Penney building on 2nd St. SE.
Speaker/reactor Sally Whiston was the guest speaker. A love of American history and a voracious appetite for fiction and non-fiction books has led Whiston to portray historical women.
For her presentation to the club, she chose to portray her grandmother, Matilda Larson, in 1905, speaking of superstitions and clothing during the Edwardian period. Whiston began "Bringing Women of American History to Life" after she retired and portrays seven women including first ladies, an author and a social activist.
Whiston portrays First Lady Julia Grant and Edith Roosevelt; Andrew Jackson's wife, Rachel, and surrogate first lady, Emily Donelson; lawyer, congresswoman and leader of the woman's movement, Bella Abzug; Louisa May Alcott, author of "Little Women"; and the unsinkable Molly Brown of Titanic fame.
A garage plant sale is planned for June 6 at the home of member Pat Roudebush on 4th St. NE, Carrollton, and the group's annual plant sale fundraiser will be held later in the month.
"This is an exciting time for our club," said President Linda Moreland. "Fifty years is a long time for a club to be in existence and helping our community. We are proud to be able to help beautify the village each year."
The club provides flowers to the Carrollton High School fall and winter homecoming king, queen and court members as well as for the Carroll County Fair king, queen and court members.
They also hang wreaths on street signs throughout the village during the Christmas holiday season and conduct and an annual banquet and auction and donate proceeds to the Carroll County Community Christmas program.
For information or to join the organization, contact any of the club officers. They include Linda Moreland, President; Kelley Bryan, vice president; Pam Miller, treasurer; and Sharon Bellamy, secretary. The Suburban Garden Club is accepting new members.

We've been working hard behind the scenes for the past few weeks with FDL members on the OccupySupply program. So far the FDL Membership Program has raised $83,583.88 and spent $42,833.96 on supplies, and we are proud to report that union made hats, scarves and socks are now on their way to 40 Occupations across the country.
OccupySupply got a nice show of support form Egyptian-American journalist Mona Eltahawy over the weekend:
Help the Occupy Supply Fund ship 100% union made, American manufactured
cold weather gear to occupations.
The Membership Program has already bought everything from generators, heaters and sleeping bags to tents, food and clothing for many occupations. But we quickly realized that the requests for winterization help we were getting far outstripped anything we could satisfy on a one-off basis. Moreover, we knew we could get more (and better) supplies if we bought them in bulk, particularly with smaller items like clothing.
But if you ever want a depressing tour of what has happened to America's manufacturing base, start looking for union made textiles. The once thriving market has been all but obliterated — and much of what's left will probably see its death knell with the passage of the Korea Free Trade deal. Even companies that were hanging on only a year ago are shutting their doors:
Saturday, May 7, 2011
Just 30 years ago, Scotty's Fashions, with 237 employees, was Lehighton's second largest employer behind Gnaden Huetten Memorial Hospital. It was the fifth largest employer in Carbon County in 1991. The firm put food on the table of its Lehighton employees for more than 40 years. The Lehighton factory was one of several the Scott family of Pen Argyl had owned. Tighe Scott, son of founder Amelio Scott, said at one time Scotty's had over 2,000 workers.
But all empires eventually fall, they say, and thanks to other countries taking away virtually all our garment jobs, Scotty's in Lehighton has closed.
One company link after another is now dead. Or worse yet, this is what happens to your website when you go out of business. Even Carhartt, which has manufactured union-made work wear in the US for over a century, made the decision to shut down domestic manufacturing last year. [cont'd]
Each company that goes under means jobs lost, communities devastated and unions weakened. Middle class jobs are replaced by sweatshop labor, and the 1% pocket the difference. The cost of "cheap" imported goods becomes a vast global supply line consuming enormous amounts of fossil fuel. Chinese goods are offloaded onto our shores, and US manufacturing equipment is loaded back on to make the return trip. It's extraordinarily depressing, a recipe for economic inequality and environmental catastrophie — and not the least bit sustainable.
Workers represented by unions make 15% more than their non-union counterparts performing the same jobs, and are much more likely to have health care. Unions fight for things like 40-hour work weeks and paid sick leave that benefit everyone, regardless of whether they are union members or not. It is no coincidence that income disparity is soaring as union membership density declines.
We're extremely proud that the goods we're sending out from OccupySupply today are not only economical (at an average cost of $8.20 per item) and made for extreme cold weather, they are also union made. We will continue to buy union-made items whenever possible. Some items like tents and sleeping bags simply aren't union made in the US any more, so if we have to buy non-union made goods in order to meet the needs of the occupiers, we'll work hard to insure that they are manufactured regionally by people who are paid a fair wage for their labor.
Below is a list of the union locals responsible for manufacturing the goods we've already purchased:
- Hats and scarves: Workers United Local 33T in Philadelphia
- Socks: UFCW Local 147T in Wisconsin
- Blankets, jackets, polar fleece jackets: UFCW Local 1541 in Chicago
A big round of applause to the union members who have worked hard to produce these items that are all extremely high quality, and also to the manufacturers who are still committed to operating union shops. It is our sincere hope that with OccupySupply we can not only get much-needed assistance to the encampments across the country, but also encourage a conversation about the value of labor in the items we use and the practices we encourage with our economic choices.
If you're with an occupation and would like to request supplies from OccupySupply, you can do it here. If you'd like to become a member of the FDL Membership Program and work with us to bring OccupySupply to your local encampment, you can join here.

Belgium's Economy Contracts Less Than Initially Estimated
Sept. 7 (Bloomberg) -- Belgium's economy contracted less than initially estimated in the second quarter as the biggest retreat of private consumption in more than three years and a depletion of stocks reduced demand for goods made abroad.
Gross domestic product in Belgium fell 0.5 percent from the first quarter, compared with an initial estimate of a 0.6 percent decline on Aug. 1, the National Bank of Belgium said today in a statement. Net trade added 0.4 percentage point to GDP, offsetting the effect of shrinking inventories.
The revision may not change the broader view of the economy as the report also showed that Belgian households cut consumption by the most since the first quarter of 2009 and reduced spending on houses for a seventh consecutive quarter. Forecasts projecting growth for the Belgian economy this year will have to be revised downward, Finance Minister Steven Vanackere told lawmakers in Parliament on Aug. 28.
"The contraction of residential construction confirms that there is a broad-based lack of households' confidence," Philippe Ledent, an economist at ING Groep NV in Brussels, said in an e-mailed note. "They clearly prefer to save money as uncertainty remains high."
The slump in the second quarter, which followed a 0.2 percent expansion in the first quarter, was the biggest in more than three years. Central bank Governor Luc Coene said in an interview with De Tijd and L'Echo last month that the remainder of the year would likely be "more negative than positive," in a signal that Belgium would slide into a recession for the second time in 3 1/2 years.
'Slight' Recovery
Ledent forecast a full-year contraction of 0.2 percent for Belgium, assuming a "slight" recovery in the fourth quarter.
Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo's six-party government remains committed to cut the budget deficit to 2.8 percent of GDP this year from 3.7 percent in 2011, Vanackere told the lawmakers, adding that tax receipts at the end of July were still in line with a projected 6.9 percent increase for the full year.
Public-sector investment fell 3 percent in the second-quarter, the most in more than two years, and consumption by government bodies declined 0.2 percent from the prior three-month period, the first retreat since at least 1995.

Have you ever had a moment that made you say "WOW"? Like many of you, I live and breathe technology. I read tech blogs, work in the tech industry, and am a self-proclaimed gadget junkie. Consequently, I am always looking for the latest and greatest app, program, or tool. So when I was battling a sinus infection about a month ago, I decided to try out a new telemedicine app that I had read about. The combination of my busy week, miserable sinus headache, primary physician who was booked out for a week, and a desire to avoid an urgent care facility during flu season, I decided to give the app a try.
The app, Doctor On Demand, allows you to connect over video or audio-only and speak directly to a physician. They are able to answer and assist with non-medical emergencies, short-term prescriptions, and referrals to specialists. There is no need for insurance and it is a flat fee for each consultation.
Slightly hesitant about how well this would work but feeling desperate to annihilate this sinus monster that had invaded my head, I downloaded the app. My first impression was how sleek and aesthetically pleasing the app looked (I can't help myself, along with technology, I live and breathe marketing). Once downloaded, I was able to quickly fill out some general information about myself and how I would like to pay for my consultation. From there, I was brought to a screen where I could enter my symptoms as well as any medications or medication allergies I had. Once I listed my symptoms I was asked if I wanted to connect to a doctor. Given their name and some information, I was quickly connected via video conferencing to our consultation. I explained my symptoms and that I had chronic sinus infections. He asked me a few questions and if there were any specific medications that I normally take for treating this. Once my preferred antibiotic was determined, the doctor asked me if there was a specific pharmacy that I would like to have my prescription called in to. The pharmacy location was then set and he informed me that it would be called in right away. The entire consultation took less than 10 minutes and I was able to pick my prescription up within 30 minutes of my call. After concluding the session, I received an email receipt for the call as well as an email confirming that my prescription request had been sent in to my preferred pharmacy.
With physicians continuing to be over-scheduled, and a society of people who are extremely busy, this app makes a Dr. visit easy and accessible from wherever you are at any time. I was very impressed by the whole process. This was a great example of how effective telemedicine can be and I highly recommend giving it a try.

I never mentioned it was sent to Micrsoft to Cert. yet, 4J has been making the tests themselves and finishing up the bugs and fixes before it's sent to Microsoft. The game has gone into testing yesterday or either today because 4J has confirmed that they have done their part and so the update was sent to Microsoft early this week for testing. The tweets don't lie, although I can be wrong because they have officially announced a date yet.
According to the tweets. They still have not sent it to MS. 4J said it SHOULD be sent off to MS this week. After it is finally in the hands of MS; they normally take a week or two of testing before it is released. Regardless if 4J said they fixed all of the bugs. Your uneducated guess of it releasing this week is completely wrong.
SilvrgunSuprman @ Trueachievements.com
They said they'd tell us when they did send it to MS but then they also did a preemptive tweet saying that it would be sent in this week. Not that it matters too much but I hope they still let us know when they do hand it over.
Hopefully MS/4J give us a good guess as to when it will come out and don't wait until last second to tell us that it's out the next day or something like that.
it will be mid October duh?
https://twitter.com/4JStudios 4JStudios new Tweet. "Check out what's coming in the update for Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition! http://bit.ly/QGJmSr #minecraftXBLA "
4J Has already passed the update to MS. as of today. "We've handed over the final 1.8.2 build to Microsoft! They'll run some confidence tests then put it into Certification Testing."
looks really good you can see why it took so long with all those changes and additions people will get even less done around the house. now just for people to sit back salivate and wait lol...
if you shoot for the moon and miss you'll still land among the stars.
I just came back from a game and practice prevents me to gather info. until the weekends. I have taken a look at the new tweets and thank you for reminding me, can't wait!

Kaiser Permanente donates $150,000 toward park space in west Ventura
Kaiser Permanente has given The Trust for Public Land $150,000 to help buy park space in Ventura's westside neighborhood, officials announced last week.
The money will offset some of the city's cost of buying the space at Ventura Avenue and Kellogg Street.
The City Council in February voted to buy the 2.4 acres in partnership with the San Francisco-based nonprofit for $1.1 million. The city committed $500,000 from its park fund toward the purchase. The trust agreed to pay the rest upfront and lease the land to Ventura for $31,500 per year.
The arrangement left Ventura with a balance of $600,000. Kaiser's grant reduced that amount to $450,000, said Riti Dhesi, the trust's field representative.
In September, Ventura agreed to pay the trust $100,000 to assist in the site acquisition, which closed escrow this year, and to raise money to help the city pay for and develop the property.
The Kaiser donation fits neatly in that arrangement, Dhesi said.
Kaiser officials said the park is part of an effort to improve the health of the neighborhood.
"Improving access to physical activity through park development and improvement is a strategy in the Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL) Zone in west Ventura," Mary Jarvis, director of public affairs for Kaiser Permanente Ventura County, said in a news release. "The HEAL Zone is a four-year project that brings multiple community partners together to make changes in their neighborhoods that get people to eat better and move more."
The city and trust will hold a sign-raising ceremony at the site April 24, said Elena Brokaw, the city's director of parks, recreation and community partnerships. The event will start at 10:15 a.m., and the public may attend.
