Far from the Tree: Parents, Children and the Search for Identityby Andrew Solomon
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
From the National Book Award-winning author of the "brave…deeply humane…open-minded, critically informed, and poetic" (The New York Times) The Noonday Demon, comes a book about the consequences of extreme personal and cultural differences between parents and children.
As a gay child of straight parents, Andrew Solomon was born with a condition that was considered an illness, but it became a cornerstone of his identity. While reporting on the explosion of Deaf pride in the 1990s, he began to consider illness and identity as a continuum with shifting boundaries. Spurred by the disability-rights movement and empowered by the Internet, communities with such "horizontal identities" are challenging expectations and norms.
Their stories begin in families coping with extreme difference: dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, multiple severe disabilities, or prodigious genius; children conceived in rape, or who identify as transgender; children who develop schizophrenia or commit serious crimes. The adage asserts that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but in Solomon's explorations, some apples fall on the other side of the world.
For ten years, interviewing more than 250 families, Solomon has observed not just how some families learn to deal with exceptional children, but also how they find profound meaning in doing so. An utterly original thinker, Solomon mines the eloquence of ordinary people who have somehow summoned hope and courage in the face of heartbreaking prejudice and almost unimaginable difficulty.
Far from the Tree is a masterpiece that will rattle our prejudices, question our policies, and inspire our understanding of the relationship between illness and identity. Above all, it will renew and deepen our gratitude for the herculean reach of parental love.
"A profoundly moving new work of research and narrative by National Book Award — winner Solomon (The Noonday Demon) explores the ways that parents of marginalized children — being gay, dwarf, severely disabled, deaf, autistic, schizophrenic, the product of rape, or given to criminal tendencies or prodigious musical talent, to name a few he chose — have been transformed and largely enriched by caring for their high-needs children. These children are marginalized by society, classified traditionally as ill and abnormal, and shunned; in the cases of those who are deaf or homosexual, they were forced to conform to mainstream strictures. A seasoned journalist and LGBT activist, Solomon relies on anecdotes to convey the herculean tasks facing parents and caregivers of special-needs children because 'stories acknowledge chaos,' and he takes great pains to probe the dark side of parental despair and anger, as well as ennobling efforts of resilience and strength. Sifting through arguments about nature versus nurture, Solomon finds some startling moments of discovery, for example, among Deaf activists who ferociously cling to their marginality, parents of children with Down syndrome who express their children's infinite 'mystery and beauty,' and the truculent compassion of Dylan Klebold's parents, 10 years after the Columbine High School shootings. Solomon's own trials of feeling marginalized as gay, dyslexic, and depressive, while still yearning to be a father, frame these affectingly rendered real tales about bravely playing the cards one's dealt. (Nov.)" Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"Far-reaching, original, fascinating — Andrew Solomon's investigation of many of the most intense challenges that parenthood can bring compels us all to reexamine how we understand human difference. Perhaps the greatest gift of this monumental book, full of facts and full of feelings, is that it constantly makes one think, and think again." Philip Gourevitch, author of We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed With Our Families
"This is one of the most extraordinary books I have read in recent times — brave, compassionate and astonishingly humane. Solomon approaches one of the oldest questions — how much are we defined by nature versus nurture? — and crafts from it a gripping narrative. Through his stories, told with such masterful delicacy and lucidity, we learn how different we all are, and how achingly similar. I could not put this book down." Siddhartha Mukherjee, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Emperor of All Maladies
"An informative and moving book that raises profound issues regarding the nature of love, the value of human life, and the future of humanity." Kirkus, starred review
"In Far from the Tree, Andrew Solomon reminds us that nothing is more powerful in a child's development than the love of a parent. This remarkable new book introduces us to mothers and fathers across America — many in circumstances the rest of us can hardly imagine — who are making their children feel special, no matter what challenges come their way." President Bill Clinton
"Solomon, a highly original student of human behavior, has written an intellectual history that lays the foundation for a 21st century Psychological Bill of Rights. In addition to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness on the basis of race and religion, this Bill extends inalienable rights of psychological acceptance to people on the basis of their identity. He provides us with an unrivaled educational experience about identity groups in our society, an experience that is filled with insight, empathy and intelligence. We also discover the redefining, self-restructuring nature that caring for a child produces in parents, no matter how unusual or disabled the child is. Reading Far from the Tree is a mind-opening experience." Eric Kandel, author of The Age of Insight and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine
"Andrew Solomon has written a brave and ambitious work, bringing together science, culture and a powerful empathy. Solomon tells us that we have more in common with each other — even with those who seem anything but normal — than we would ever have imagined." Malcolm Gladwell, author of Blink and The Tipping Point
"Far from the Tree is a landmark, revolutionary book. It frames an area of inquiry — difference between parents and children — that many of us have experienced in our own lives without ever considering it as a phenomenon. Andrew Solomon plumbs his topic thoroughly, humanely, and in a compulsively readable style that makes the book as entertaining as it is illuminating." Jennifer Egan, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of A Visit from the Goon Squad

Naval Academy Mids Participate in NSA Cyber Defense Competition
Posted on: April 24, 2013 08:00 EDT by Jessica Clark
A team of Naval Academy midshipmen participated in NSA's annual inter-service cyber defense exercise April 16-18 in Annapolis, Md.
Also competing from their home locations were teams from the U.S. Military Academy, U.S. Air Force Academy, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, Air Force Institute of Technology and Royal Military College of Canada.
During the exercise, representatives from each of these schools defended their virtual computer networks against malicious attacks by a team of NSA "hackers." Teams chose how to use the resources at their disposal to best defend their networks and to keep certain critical services running, while the attackers attempted to infiltrate the networks and disrupt those services.
The entire exercise was conducted on virtual private networks while NSA computer specialists graded each team's ability to effectively maintain network services while detecting, responding to, and recovering from security intrusions or compromises.
NSA designed the competition to give students experience with designing and implementing computer security solutions with limited resources, as well as to encourage some friendly competition among the services. Students learned how to work as a team to ensure that their plan effectively protected their networks from attacks and how to react when the defenses did not work as expected.
Additionally, students gained hands-on experience using the same tools used by the Defense Department to defend networks against cyber attacks.
"It's one of the best training environments I think we have at the Naval Academy," said team captain Midshipman 1st Class Matt Yates. "I've learned more about how to organize a team to accomplish a goal through CDX than most other activities I've done here."
Yates, of Pittsburgh, Pa., said that interest in the cyber club continues to increase. In his plebe year, there were only a dozen mids involved. This year, the club had 60 active members, with a core team of 15 midshipman competing in this year's exercise.
There is no one common denominator. The mids come from a variety of majors and plan to serve in many different communities within the Navy and Marine Corps, said Yates, who will serve as a Marine officer after finishing graduate program in computer science at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Lab.
"Computers are everywhere. These are skills we'll need wherever we go," he said.
Midshipman 1st Class Melissa Carwile, the team's assistant captain, will serve as a surface warfare officer for four years before entering training to become a Navy information warfare officer.
Carwile, of Gambrills, Md., thinks the increased interest in cyber within the brigade has a lot to do with the addition of required cyber courses to the Naval Academy's core curriculum.
The faculty have also added elements of cyber warfare into the existing computer science and information technology majors, and early introduction to cyber has been helpful to the team, said Cmdr. Michael Bilzor.
"So much of what they do in this exercise relies on the fundamentals," he said.

Great video, watched the whole thing.
I saw some great new ideas in his playing, Its cool to see he still manages to evolve as a drummer even as busy as he is!
Shame about his left kick mic, the sound really didn't do his footwork justice, but what can ya do?
Thanks for the upload and great job Thomas!

Well, he can do a few tricks with the hands but overall I am not that impressed. I can tell you that rudiments are interesting but they get boring after awhile and this video is just full of one after another. I felt like I a was almost listening to a drum line workout. Yeah, I know I am being a little negative, but do yourself a favor and youtube a few Neil Pert vidoes ...... now, there is a drummer!

Master Thomas Lang, is the beeeeest drummer I have ever seen. I used to think Bill Bruford and Neil Peart were two of the greatest drummers in the whole world, but then I heard thomas. He is truly unbelievable. He must not have had a life outside of playing drums when he was growing up. He lived at the drum set! Awesome!!!!!!!

First of all, let me start off by saying how balanced he plays. Every stroke is precise and controlled. Dynamics are impeccable. Speed and balance between hand and feet are awesome.
I met him on a plane to St. Kitts in 2001, sitting right next to him and didn't even know who he was. After hearing him play, I knew then that he was a master at the kit.
As soon as I got home, I went on line and ordered his DVD to get in depth of more of his approach. He has truly inspired my playing quite a bit.
Thomas keep on making an impact to the music industry and all drummers who hear you.

Quite amazing technician. WOW. Some of my faves have chops like this kat. His coordination is unbelievable. very difficult to listen to him for this long for me, as there is no SILENCE ! No space in his drumming in this vid. I do know he is certainly more than able, this one just wore me out. though. nice job T. You freak me out with your left right brain abilities!!!!!!!!

to Troy:
Everything we do on the drumset is based more or less on rudiments (referral to Virgil Donati http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-2Ut3heVKU on 0:10 - 0:17). Single stroke roll is a rudiment as well in case you didn't know.
Thomas Lang is NOT all about stick twirling but people just can't see beyond that. No-one really seems to be able to see beyond the stick twirling and all the other tricks and really listen and think what this guy is doing. This is a guy who can't be judged over a one drum solo and even if he could, only a few people can do that cause all the others can't tell the difference between what Lang is doing and what Lars Ulrich is doing if they don't understand his way of playing.
I have his newest DVD Creative Coordination and Advanced Footwork and after having watched the whole thing, I now think I understand much better (but still not fully) what he is doing when he plays and what he does he have to do when wanting to express a certain idea as drumpattern. After I understood all those things and listened to Lang explaining some his thoughts on playing drums, I'm convinced that this guy by far one the world's best drummers if not the best. His technical ability is beyond anyone else and he's creative and musical as well - and he grooves.
I encourage people to buy one (or both of them) of his dvd's and really look into the basic ideas behind his playing and listen the interview parts with THOUGHT. Then you just might be a little more impressed when you know what he's playing... And after that some people might even commit suicide cause they used to think that some things were impossible to play but Lang plays those as well. :)
"Technique has nothing to do with music. It's a tool, like a hammer: You can build a shed or you can build the Sistine Chapel."

I'm running Windows XP and I can use either Internet Explorer 7 or Mozilla firefox 3.5.6. With a broadband connection so Ihave NO IDEA what the problems might be. I have never run into this problem anywhere near to this extent before.
Can you help??? I live in the USA and a state called Vermont.
Hope to hear from you soon...

LANHAM HILLS, Md. (WUSA) -- Fire crews responded to the scene of a two-alarm fire around 1 p.m. on Monday in the 5300 block of 85th Avenue in Lanham Hills, Md.
Fifty firefighters needed 30 minutes to extinguish the worst of the fire, which extended along the two top floors and attic area of a four-story garden-style apartment complex, according to a Prince George's County Fire Dept. spokesman. Fire crews were able to prevent the fire from spreading to an adjoining apartment building. The fire went to three alarms.
All residents were safely evacuated before the fire crews arrived. Two firefighters suffered minor burn injuries and were treated at the Burn Unit at Medstar Washington Hospital Center.
At least 11 apartments will be uninhabitable from damage.

Any more suggestions?

If you know both the references in the title, you are more culturally attuned than I. The first, tseuke-yaeba, refers to the practice known as snaggletoothing, like the band TYB48 and their pointy smiles:
Americans regularly fork over $5,000 to fix a crooked smile with braces. But in Japan, women are spending about $400 for just the opposite. On the other side of the planet, imperfect teeth are becoming a thing of beauty.
Japan's beauty trend, dubbed "tseuke-yaeba," has reached a fever pitch, with young women paying hundreds for snaggleteeth.
The procedure first made headlines in 2011, but it has grown in popularity since then, even spawning a Japanese pop girl group whose members sport the snaggletooth look. The girl group, TYB48 or "Tseuke-Yaeba 48," was created by the Taro Masuoka—the very same dentist who pioneered the procedure.
As for Minami Minegishi, she is the singer of the girl group AKB48. And the pop star shaved her head for staying at her boyfriend's house overnight:
The real life sorrow of a J-pop fantasy reaches millions.
A Japanese pop starlet recorded a tearful video and shaved her head, a traditional gesture of contrition, to apologize for breaking her band's cardinal rule: no dating.
"If it is possible, I wish from the bottom of my heart to stay in the band. Everything I did is entirely my fault. I am so sorry," said Minami Minegishi, 20, during the nearly four minute video that has been seen nearly 6.9 million times.
Her phenomenally successful band AKB48 consists of about 90 girls from their mid-teens to early 20s, who are strongly marketed on their sex appeal. The band's management forbids the members from dating boys for fear that it might shatter the illusion that their male fans might end up with them one day. . .
TYB48 and AKB48? Very catchy. . .

Posted on June 23, 2014EMPRESS AD are excited to reveal details of their debut album, titled 'Still Life Moving Fast' and set for release September 1. The album will be released in CD and digital formats, by new label Roadrunner Records, who snapped up the British band two months ago.
Having taken time to carefully hone their style of the music they love, EMPRESS AD have written an arsenal of songs that veer from an expansive, progressive sound to an aggressive, controlled roar. Citing their influences as Pink Floyd, King Crimson, and new label-mates Mastodon and Opeth, the Berkshire four piece locked themselves away in a UK studio with experienced New York-based producer, Andrew Schneider (Cave In, Pelican, Old Man Gloom) to craft their debut. Their method of recording the music live, quickly, and as organically as possible has led to noticeable nuances within the album - details for the listener to pick up on after repeated plays - but, more importantly, it has led to the kind of natural feel to the music that cannot be replicated with a couple of extra weeks tweaking behind the scenes.
The result is a debut album for the ages. With lyrics that focus upon suggestive metaphors for the intangible minutiae of everyday life rather than relationships and lost love, this is a band of musicians as focused upon grooving together as one as they are on their songwriting and being able to relate to fans on an emotional level. Soothing and utterly crushing in turn, EMPRESS AD's music juxtaposes gentle harmonies with frantic ferocity; relaxed strumming followed by thrash beats, time signature changes and other meanderings that you'll just have to find out about for yourself. The album's artwork was created by San Francisco artist Seth Curcio.
Comprised of ten songs, the album's track listing is:
• Still Life Moving Fast
• Invisible Conductor
• Delve Into The Retrospect
• Deeper In Disguise
• From Where I Cannot Reach
• On My Return
• Blurred Perception
• Haunted By Time
• Did We See
• Consumed
Pre-order the album online at Amazon now.
You might already be familiar with EMPRESS AD from their unswerving stints on the road over the last couple of years with Baroness, Cancer Bats, and Bring Me The Horizon, as well as Arcane Roots and Kvelertak, most recently. Catch the band next at this summer's Hevy Fest at Port Lympne mid-August.

Thousands of kids experience the stress of divorce each year. How they'll react depends on their age, personality, and the particular circumstances of the separation and divorce process.
Every divorce will have an effect on the kids involved — and many times the initial reaction is one of shock, sadness, frustration, anger, or worry. But kids can also come out of it better able to cope with stress, and many become more flexible, tolerant young adults.
The most important things that both parents can do to help kids through this difficult time are:
Most adults going through separation and divorce need support — from friends, professionals, clergy, and family. Don't seek support from your kids, even if they seem to want you to.
As soon as you're certain of your plans, talk to your kids about your decision to live apart. Although there's no easy way to break the news, if possible have both parents present for this conversation. It's important to try to leave feelings of anger, guilt, or blame out of it. Practice how you're going to manage telling your kids so you don't become upset or angry during the talk.
Although the discussion about divorce should be tailored to a child's age, maturity, and temperament, be sure to convey one basic message: What happened is between mom and dad and is not the kids' fault. Most kids will feel they are to blame even after parents have said that they are not. So it's vital for parents to keep providing this reassurance.
Tell your kids that sometimes adults change the way they love each other or can't agree on things and so they have to live apart. But remind them that kids and parents are tied together for life, by birth or adoption. Parents and kids often don't agree on things, but that is part of the circle of life — parents and kids don't stop loving each other or get divorced from each other.
Give kids enough information to prepare them for the upcoming changes in their lives. Try to answer their questions as truthfully as possible. Remember that kids don't need to know all the reasons behind a divorce (especially if it involves blaming the other parent). It's enough for them just to understand what will change in their daily routine, and — just as important — what will not.
With younger kids, it's best to keep it simple. You might say something like: "Mom and dad are going to live in different houses so they don't fight so much, but we both love you very much."
Older kids and teens may be more in tune with what parents have been going through, and may have more questions based on what they've overheard and picked up on from conversations and fights.
Tell kids who are upset about the news that you recognize and care about their feelings and reassure them that all of their upset feelings are perfectly OK and understandable. You might say: "I know this is very upsetting for you. Can we try to think of something that would make you feel better?" or "We both love you and are sorry that we have to live apart."
Not all kids react right away. Let yours know that's OK too, and there will be other times to talk when they're ready. Some kids try to please their parents by acting as if everything is fine, or try to avoid any difficult feelings by denying that they feel any anger or sadness at the news. Sometimes stress comes out in other ways — at school, or with friends, or in changes to their appetite, behavior or sleep patterns.
Whether your kids express fear, worry, or relief about your separation and divorce, they'll want to know how their own day-to-day lives might change.
Be prepared to answer these and other questions:
Being honest is not always easy when you don't have all the answers, or when kids are feeling scared or guilty about what's going on. It's always the right thing to do to tell them what they need to know at that moment.
Many kids — and parents — grieve the loss of the kind of family they had hoped for, and kids especially miss the presence of a parent and the family life they had. That's why it's common and very natural for some kids to hold out hope that their parents will someday get back together — even after the finality of divorce has been explained to them.
Mourning the loss of a family is normal, but over time both you and your kids will come to accept the new situation. So reassure them that it's OK to wish that mom and dad will reunite, but also explain the finality of your decisions.
Here are some ways to help kids cope with the upset of a divorce:
Consistency and routine can go a long way toward providing comfort and familiarity that can help your family during this major life change. When possible, minimize unpredictable schedules, transitions, or abrupt separations.
Especially during a divorce, kids will benefit from one-on-one time with each parent. No matter how inconvenient, try to accommodate your ex-partner as you figure out visitation schedules.
It's natural that you'll be concerned about how a child is coping with this change. The best thing that you can do is trust your instincts and rely on what you know about your kids. Do they seem to be acting differently than usual? Is a child doing things like regressing to younger behaviors, such as thumb-sucking or bedwetting? Do emotions seem to be getting in the way of everyday routines, like school and social life?
Behavioral changes are important to watch out for — any new or changing signs of moodiness; sadness; anxiety; school problems; or difficulties with friends, appetite, and sleep can be signs of a problem.
Older kids and teens may be vulnerable to risky behaviors such as alcohol and drug use, skipping school, and defiant acts. Regardless of whether such troubles are related to the divorce, they are serious problems that affect a teen's well-being and indicate the need for outside help.
Although the occasional argument between parents is expected in any family, living in a battleground of continual hostility and unresolved conflict can place a heavy burden on a child. Screaming, fighting, arguing, or violence can make kids fearful and apprehensive.
Witnessing parental conflict presents an inappropriate model for kids, who are still learning how to deal with their own relationships. Kids whose parents maintain anger and hostility are much more likely to have continued emotional and behavioral difficulties that last beyond childhood.
Talking with a mediator or divorce counselor can help couples air their grievances and hurt to each other in a way that doesn't cause harm to their children. Though it may be difficult, working together in this way will spare kids the hurt caused by continued bitterness and anger.
Because divorce can be such a big change, adjustments in living arrangements should be handled gradually.
Several types of living situations should be considered:
Which one is right for your kids? That's a tough question and often the one that couples spend most time disagreeing on. Although some kids can thrive spending half their time with each parent, others seem to need the stability of having one "home" and visiting with the other parent. Some parents choose to both remain in the same home — but this only works in the rarest of circumstances and in general should be avoided.
Whatever arrangement you choose, your child's needs should come first. Avoid getting involved in a tug of war as a way to "win." When deciding how to handle holidays, birthdays, and vacations, stay focused on what's best for the kids. It's important for parents to resolve these issues themselves and not ask the kids to choose.
During the preteen years, when kids become more involved with activities apart from their parents, they may need different schedules to accommodate their changing priorities. Ideally, kids benefit most from consistent support from both parents, but they may resist equal time-sharing if it interrupts school or their social lives. Be prepared for their thoughts on time-sharing, and try to be flexible.
Your child may refuse to share time with you and your spouse equally and may try to take sides. If this occurs, as hard as it is, try not to take it personally. Maintain the visitation schedule and emphasize the importance of the involvement of both parents.
Kids sometimes propose spending an entire summer, semester, or school year with the noncustodial parent. But this may not reflect that they want to move. Listen to and explore these options if they're brought up. This kind of arrangement can work well in "friendly" divorces, but is not typical of higher-conflict situations.
As far as is possible, both parents should work toward maximizing consistency in routine and discipline across both households. Similar expectations regarding bedtimes, rules, and homework will reduce anxiety, especially in younger children.
Wherever possible, work with the other parent to maintain consistent rules — and even when you can't enforce them in your ex-partner's home, you can stick to them in yours.
It's important to maintain as much normalcy as possible after a divorce by keeping regular routines, including mealtimes, house rules about behavior, and discipline. Relaxing limits, especially during a time of change, tends to make kids insecure and reduces your chances of regaining appropriate parental authority later.
Resist the urge to drop routines and spoil kids upset about a divorce by letting them break rules or not enforcing limits. You should feel free to lavish affection on them — kids don't get spoiled by too many hugs or comforting words. But buying things to replace love or allowing kids to act any way they want is not in their best interests, and you could struggle to reel them back in once the dust settles.
Divorce can be a major crisis for a family. However, if you and your former spouse can work together and communicate civilly for the benefit of your children, the original family unit can continue to be a source of strength, even if stepfamilies enter the picture.
So remember to:
Changes of any kind are hard — know that you and your kids can and will adjust to this one. Finding your inner strength and getting help to learn new coping skills are hard work, but can make a big difference to helping your family get through this difficult time.

New Gloucester, ME (NEWS CENTER)-- Maine Adaptive Sports and Recreation held a clinic designed to introduce wheelchair athletes to racing and other sports. Sports can be an important part of the rehabilitation process.
An All-Star staff was assembled including Krige Schabort who just set a new course record in the Beach to Beacon. Schabort was a South African soldier when he lost both legs fighting in Angola. He credits sport with hastening his rehabilitation, "Not all people are introduce to sport as was. It helped me a lot."
The inaugural week long clinic introduced athletes to five sports; racing, tennis, swimming, archery and sea-kayaking. There were also opportunities to try other activities such as all-terrain track chair and handcycling.
Craig Blanchette of Portland, Oregon is also a Beach to Beacon winner. Aong with being a world class athlete with two Olympic medals, Blanchette makes his living as a motivational speaker.
Zach Beaulieu of Augusta, who will play club basketball in Europe this fall, feels that sport also connects people with a community. Those contacts are important. "You get the sense of activity and you really see that everything is out there for you," he told NEWS CENTER.
The clinic was held at Pineland and sponsored by Unum.
Anyone who would like to get involved with wheelchair sports should contact the Maine Adaptive Sports and Recreation program, which is also known as Maine Adaptive. They can be reached in Bethel, Maine at (207) 824-2440. A link to the website is attached.

Review: Nokia 6820 Qwerty Phone
Here is a review I intended to post sometime ago, but hopefully some folks who are considering a QWERTY phone will find it useful.
Text to your heart's delights – well that should be the advertisement adorning the Nokia 6820. Following its predecessor, the Nokia 6800, the 6820 delivers a cool sleeker design and a smaller foot print. Although we never tested the 6800, the 6820's looks alone are enough to convince us to go with the latter.
For those that are text message and email heavy this is the ideal cell phone that works part time for the full time cell phone user. At initial look, the Nokia 6820 appears as a regular candy bar phone with a color screen, and low quality phone camera for videos and stills. Delve a little deeper and the phone's numeric keyboard flips opens horizontally to reveal a full keyboard. The keys are a tad on the small side but should be expected given the size of the phone. An added perk is that the keyboard can be fully backlit with the touch of a button. Although the 6820 was tested as a text message tool -limiting character amount to 160 (standard SMS format) – we were confident that it would perform as a formidable email client, although the AT&T/Cingular network was not the fast, but suitable enough for part time emailers. The phone comes packed with a speaker phone that is loud enough and sensitive enough to have a conversation over, and Bluetooth that syncs partially with our Apple G4 – although the Nokia 6820 would only receive one phone book entry at a time which was a disappointment. Calendar info synced well enough, and transferring videos, pics, and audio back and forth to the Desktop G4 computer was seamless.
The screen of the 6820 is subpar as its color quantity is limited and thus does not appropriately reflect the true quality of its camera (640×480 pixels). Once the pictures are transferred they are much clearer. The numeric buttons on the face are flat resulting in undefined areas of separation; we tended to push other keys while aiming for something else (i.e. 2 and you get a 5). Battery life of the phone lasts for sometime. Standby time lasted up to 4 days. With normal everyday use that droped to 2-3 days depending on ringtone options. Battery life seriously suffered with full time Bluetooth operation, which is also another disappointment considering Bluetooth is touted as a feature that will not greatly impact battery life. Cool factor of the phone is most notable when you flip open its keyboard. The phone is a practical tool for the serious text messager.

Jonathan Anderson joined the Big Green as an assistant coach for the fall of 2009. Now in his sixth season at Dartmouth, he serves as the third-base coach, works with the outfielders and oversees the hitters and recruiting.
Dartmouth has enjoyed terrific success with Anderson on the staff, winning Rolfe Division titles in each of his first five seasons, including an Ivy Championship in 2010 that brought about a berth in an NCAA Regional. The Big Green went on to win a game in Coral Gables, Fla., defeating FIU, 15-9, the first Dartmouth victory at a regional in 23 years. In addition, center fielder Jake Carlson earned second-team All-Ivy honors while committing just one error all year.
In 2011, Anderson mentored outfielder Sam Bean '11 who earned a spot on the All-Ivy Second Team. The outfielders as a group were the envy of the league as they committed a total of one error all season, while two of them ranked among the top three in the league in fielding chances without an error.
The following year, Carlson led the Ivy League and ranked 12th nationally with a .397 average while earning first-team all-conference honors as well as a spot on the second team for both the ABCA All-Region and New England All-Star Squads. Left fielder Jeff Keller also received All-Ivy honorable mention after hitting .352 with five home runs.
Keller continued his assault on Ivy League pitchers in 2013, earning a place on the All-Ivy and New England All-Stars First Team, the ABCA All-Region Second team and All-America honorable mention for leading the nation in doubles per game and ranking fifth in slugging. Another outfielder in Ennis Coble also picked up All-Ivy First-Team honors. And the Big Green hitters overall ranked among the top 25 nationally in average, doubles per game and slugging percentage.
Last year, Keller led the team in hitting and was recognized as an Academic All-American for a second straight year. Both he and Nick Ruppert also received All-Ivy honors.
Anderson spent the 2008-09 campaiogns coaching at his alma mater, Duke University, where he served as the first base coach. Not only did he coach the outfielders and oversee bunting, he also helped out with the hitters and base runners. Anderson was the director of the Duke Baseball Academy camps and managed the recruiting data base, plus assisted with academic development, compliance and travel.

In a move that supporters called a milestone for civil rights, the State Senate in New Jersey passed a bill to recognize same-sex marriages, a move that Governor Chris Christie has promised to veto, The Associated Press reported.
According to the news outlet, the vote was 24 to 16 in favor of the bill, a major swing from the 20 to 14 defeat of similar legislation that occurred in January 2010.
Despite the passage of the bill by the State Senate, opponents noted that it was an exercise in futility due to Christie's veto vow. Len Deo, president of New Jersey Family Policy Council, called the vote "something we have to go through" and noted it would be made a moot point after it reaches the governor's desk.
According to Bloomberg, Christie opposes same-sex marriage and wants voters to decide the issue in a referendum. New Jersey is one of six States that is currently mulling over the issue, as Washington, Maryland, Illinois, North Carolina and Minnesota have all seen legislation related to gay marriage come through their State governments.

A member of the New York State Park Police surrendered Sunday evening to Watertown police to be charged with driving while ability impaired by the use of alcohol.
William L. Jorgensen, 40, Alexandria Bay, is charged in an incident that occurred early the morning of Jan. 27 in the 500 block of Stone Street, police said. He was released to await arraignment in City Court at a later date.
A police spokesman said Mr. Jorgensens vehicle was halted on Stone Street for investigation into an allegation that was made earlier in the night at another location. Insufficient evidence was found to substantiate the earlier claim, police said.
In the meantime, the officer who made the traffic stop alleged that Mr. Jorgensen appeared to be under the influence of alcohol. No breath test was administered, however, because there was an urgency to return Mr. Jorgensen to the scene of the initial complaint, said Lt. Frank J. Derrigo.
The initial complaint was serious, he said. The investigation took a long time, and that is why it took a month for the impaired-driving count to be lodged, he said.
He declined to discuss the nature of the initial complaint, since nothing was substantiated. The person who made the complaint is not facing a charge of falsely reporting an incident, Lt. Derrigo said.
By the time the initial stages of the original investigation had been completed, the amount of time that had elapsed between the two unrelated investigations eliminated the value of administering a breath test, he said.
Yes, the lieutenant continued, the fact that he was drinking and driving was obvious. He added that the members of that nights patrol shift believe they can prove he was impaired.
Lt. Derrigo said that nights handling of the case was not an attempt by a cop to cover for another cop.
If that were the case, why would we arrest him at all? he said.
Mr. Jorgensens command officer with the state park police, Maj. Rudy Schneider, said Tuesday that Mr. Jorgensen is employed full time at the rank of patrolman, and his patrol area is at any of the state parks in Jefferson County. He has the same authority as state troopers and sheriffs deputies to make arrests beyond the borders of state parks.
Maj. Schneider said state park police are aware of the arrest, and our people will be looking at it.
He referred additional questions to headquarters in Albany, where no immediate reply was available.
Impaired driving is an infraction, not as serious as a driving while intoxicated charge.

If this is indeed the case, then he is definitely worth selecting at #4. If he can't prove otherwise by the draft or it is worse than that, the Orioles should select someone else.

Why The Slauson/Ducasse Rotation Is a Microcosm of the Jets Season
When a team is billed by the team's coach as one of the best and most talented units he's ever been around, and then the team stumbles woefully during the course of the season, it goes without saying that many decisions are going to come into question. They are going to come into question even moreso when the team's offensive line coach implies that the decision to play Vlad Ducasse was not his, but also one in which he doesn't agree.
On Friday, Rex Ryan tried to explain that the reasoning for putting Vlad Ducasse out as much on the field was one with long-term implications.
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.comWe've said for months now that with Slauson and Moore both becoming free agents this offseason and the team is going to be in a situation where it's going to be tough for them to spend on both. Vlad Ducasse is getting reps in preparation for that moment. For as much bad attention as he seems to get, Ducasse has certainly made some mistakes on his time on the field this year but it's been neutral at the least. Brandon Moore has been a big part of this offense for almost a decade, but his contract demands might not be in line with what the Jets can give him.
Whether it's a call like this, or how many snaps certain players get to stay under contract bonuses, this is one of many decisions that is being made above Rex Ryan that is impacting football operations. Other teams do the exact same thing, but when the team is fighting for any spark, any sign of life or any chance to be better than other players, it's decisions like platooning lineman — something that is almost never done — seems to jump out to fans as the mark of a questionably run organization.

A spokesman for the University of Central Florida says the NCAA has heard UCF's appeal of its one-year postseason ban in football.
Grant Heston said Thursday that UCF President John Hitt, athletic director Todd Stansbury and others attended the hearing, which lasted 3 and a half hours, at NCAA headquarters in Indianapolis. No timetable was given for a ruling.
It is the lone penalty UCF challenged as part of sanctions levied last July for major recruiting violations in football and basketball. UCF also received a one-year postseason ban in basketball, $50,000 fine, five years' probation, reduction of basketball scholarships and limits on football recruiting.
"We look forward to the outcome of the appeal, knowing that we presented a strong case on behalf of our student-athletes, athletics program and fans," Heston said.
UCF's appeal allowed it to participate in postseason play in 2012. The Knights finished 10-4, defeating Ball State in the Beef O'Brady's Bowl.
UCF moves to the Big East Conference in all sports next season.

|Red meat may increase breast cancer risk
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Thursday, 10 May 2007 01:41
Bad news for women who like their barbeque- a University of South Carolina study found postmenopausal women who consumed the most grilled, barbecued or smoked red meat over their lifetime have a 47 percent increased risk of breast cancer.While the study does not conclusively link carcinogens to red meat, Dr. Susan E. Steck, who made the discovery with her colleagues, said the results support the belief that you should limit your red or processed meat intake and increase fruit and vegetable intake.
Women who ate few fruits and vegetables have a 74 percent increased risk, according to Steck's research. The conclusions support lab and animal studies that have shown phytochemicals, which are found in fruits and vegetables, can protect against carcinogens.

OGDENSBURG Four city residents were jailed Tuesday after being indicted in St. Lawrence County Court for dealing crack cocaine and prescription painkillers in the city.
City police and members of the St. Lawrence County Drug Task Force arrested Kelly J. Ellard-Staton, 37, of 125 Belmont Courts, David A. Hazelton, 37, of 1062 Washington St., Jeffrey W. Brenno, 56, of 212 Linden Lane, and Edwin G. Roach Jr., 53, of 511 Knox St.
City police said Ms. Ellard-Staton was charged with four counts each of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Mr. Hazelton and Mr. Roach were both charged with two counts each of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Mr. Roach was additionally charged with one count each of fifth-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and fifth-degree possession, which were the same charges brought against Mr. Brenno.
All of the charges against the four are felonies.
Mr. Brenno and Mr. Roach are accused of selling Vicodin, a prescription narcotic painkiller. Ms. Ellard-Staton and Mr. Hazelton were accused of dealing crack cocaine.
Police said as they were serving the four with arrest warrants, they saw Anthony Hester, alias Q, 24, of Brooklyn, attempting to hide drug paraphernalia on his person. He gave police a false name and presented someone elses state identification card. Police said they found he was wanted on a state parole warrant out of New York City for absconding. He had been originally charged with first-degree robbery, city police said. He was charged with second-degree criminal impersonation and unlawful possession of marijuana. He was arraigned in city court and sent to St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, without bail.
Ms. Ellard-Staton and Mr. Hazelton were each sent to county jail on $25,000 cash or $50,000 bail bond. Mr. Brenno was jailed on $20,000 bail or bond, and Mr. Roach was jailed on $15,000 cash or $20,000 bond. Police said more arrests are pending.

Yard work accidents are relatively common during the late summer and early fall seasons when people start preparing landscapes for the winter months.
As autumn approaches, Carbon County residents frequently rent chainsaws, wood chippers, edgers and rototillers to complete the winter preparation tasks.
But operating rented machinery can pose safety problems unless consumers understand how to handle the equipment properly.
"Employees at equipment rental stores are an excellent source for information when it comes to figuring out how to operate equipment correctly," pointed out Chris Wehrman, chief executive officer of the American Rental Association, the trade organization for the industry.
When deciding what type of machinery to rent, people should ask store clerks to assist in selecting the right equipment to tackle the tasks.
In addition, local residents should ask the clerks to include instruction manuals and to demonstrate the manufacturers' recommendations regarding the operation of rented equipment
Chipping wood into mulch is becoming a popular practice at locations across the nation.
The United States Department of Labor's occupational safety and health administration has developed seven tips to consider while operating a chipper.
Local residents should:
Never reach into operating machinery.
Avoid loose-fitting clothing.
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines and safety instructions.
Use earplugs, safety glasses, hard hats and gloves.
Guard infeed and discharge ports. Prevent the access covers or doors from opening until the drum or disc stops.
Turn off the yard equipment's engine before attempting to remove debris from a clogged chipper.
