A consent order filed on Thursday is allowing a Gay-Straight Alliance student club to meet at Carver Middle School until the end of the school year, according to the Lake County School Board.
The order comes a day after the American Civil Liberties Union filing a lawsuit in Lake County, saying the delay of allowing the formation of a gay-straight alliance club at a middle school is a violation of free speech and equal access.
The lawsuit says the efforts by eighth-grader Bayli Silbertstein to form a student club at Carver Middle School for gay students and their straight allies has been repeatedly delayed by the school board.
"The discussion on this issue has been complex and longer than anticipated," said Dr. Susan Moxley, Superintendent of Lake County Schools. "The policy discussion will continue; however, this specific school and student request is being resolved within current laws and guidelines."
The school board will host a special meeting on May 6 at 3:30 p.m. to discuss revising "Student Clubs and Organizations," at Lake Minneola High School's auditorium.
The club will be allowed to meet through the end of the school year, which is June 6.

Dana Blankenhorn's story How far can open source CRM get? has finally pushed me to respond to the many people who have asked "When is the OSI going to stand up to companies who are flagrantly abusing the term 'open source'?" The answer is: starting today. I am not going to start by flaming Dana. As President of the Open Source Initiative, I feel a certain amount of responsibility for stewardship of the open source brand, including both the promotion of the brand as well as the protection of the brand. The topic of "what is really open source and what is not?" has been simmering for quite some time. And until last year the question was trivial to answer, and the answer provided a trivial fix. But things have changed, and its time to regain our turf. I have been on the board of the OSI for more than 5 years, and until last year it was fairly easy for us to police the term open source: once every 2-3 months we'd receive notice that some company or another was advertising that their software was "open source" when the license was not approved by the OSI board and, upon inspection, was clearly not open source. We (usually Russ Nelson) would send them a notice politely telling them "We are the Open Source Initiative. We wrote a definition of what it means to be open source, we promote that definition, and that's what the world expects when they see the term mentioned. Do you really want to explain to your prospective customers 'um...we don't actually intend to offer you these freedoms and rights you expect?'." And they would promptly respond by saying "Wow! We had no idea!" Maybe once or twice they would say "What a novel idea! We'll change our license to one that's approved by you!". Most of the time they would say "Oops! Thanks for letting us know--we'll promote our software in some other way." And they did, until last year. Starting around 2006, the term open source came under attack from two new and unanticipated directions: the first was from vendors who claimed that they have every bit as much right to define the term as does the OSI, and the second was from vendors who claimed that their license was actually faithful to the Open Source Definition (OSD), and that the OSI board was merely being obtuse (or worse) in not recognizing that fact. (At least one vendor has pursued both lines of attack.) This was certainly not the first attack we ever had to repel, but it is the first time we have had to confront agents who fly our flag as their actions serve to corrupt our movement. The time has come to bring the matter into the open, and to let the democratic light of the open source community illuminate for all of us the proper answer. Dana reports correctly when he says:
Then there's open source, the only way in which CRM start-ups can elbow their way into the market today.
And so it is for numerous classes of applications and numerous software markets. But I disagree completely with his next statement, which is logical but also fallacious:
SugarCRM, SplendidCRM and now Centric have proven [sic] there's a place in the market for this (if you read your license carefully).
It is logical precisely because there really is not room in the market for Yet Another Proprietary CRM system. It is fallacious because THESE LICENSES ARE NOT OPEN SOURCE LICENSES. This flagrant abuse of labeling is not unlike sweetening a mild abrasive with ethylene glycol and calling the substance Toothpaste. If the market is clamouring for open source CRM solutions, why are some companies delivering open source in name only and not in substance? I think the answer is simple: they think they can get away with it. As President of the OSI, I've been remiss in thinking that gentle but firm explanations would cause them to change their behavior. I have also not chased down and attempted to correct every reporter who propagates these misstatements (the way that Richard Stallman does when people confuse free software with free beer, or worse--to him--open source). I have now come to realize that if we don't call them out, then they will get away with it (at least until customers realize they've been fooled again, and then they'll blame both proprietary and open source vendors alike; they probably won't be particularly charitable with the press or careless industry analysts, either). If we don't respond to those in the press who fall (or are pushed) into these logical traps, we are betraying the community. So here's what I propose: let's all agree--vendors, press, analysts, and others who identify themselves as community members--to use the term 'open source' to refer to software licensed under an OSI-approved license. If no company can be successful by selling a CRM solution licensed under an OSI-approved license, then OSI (and the open source movement) should take the heat for promoting a model that is not sustainable in a free market economy. We can treat that case as a bug, and together we can work (with many eyes) to discern what it is about the existing open source definition or open source licenses made CRM a failure when so many other applications are flourishing. But just because a CEO thinks his company will be more successful by promoting proprietary software as open source doesn't teach anything about the true value of open source. Hey--if people want to try something that's not open source, great! But let them call it something else, as Microsoft has done with Shared Source. We should never put the customer in a position where they cannot trust the term open source to mean anything because some company and their investors would rather make a quick buck than an honest one, or because they believe more strongly in their own story than the story we've been creating together for the past twenty years. We are better than that. We have been successful over the past twenty years because we have been better than that. We have built a well-deserved reputation, and we shouldn't allow others to trade the reputation we earned for a few pieces of silver. Open Source has grown up. Now it is time for us to stand up. I believe that when we do, the vendors who ignore our norms will suddenly recognize that they really do need to make a choice: to label their software correctly and honestly, or to license it with an OSI-approved license that matches their open source label. And when they choose the latter, I'll give them a shout out, as history shows. Please join me, stand up, and make your voice heard--enough is enough.
my software would not be Free Software, and Richard Stallman or the Free Software Foundation would surely shake their heads in disbelief at my licenseWho made Richard Stallman king? From what I see, "Free Software" is as generic a term as "Open Source". You could call your software Free Software and shrug at Stallman's demand that you remove those words from your marketing material, possibly citing that your software is available for free (at zero price, excluding the cost of the phone call and opportunity cost of time spent thinking of and telling the joke). If you recognise Richard Stallman as "king" with respect to "Free Software", then you should recognise Eric Raymond as "king" with respect to "Open Source", otherwise you are inconsistent.
Is it even remotely possible that the Ten Commandments of the OSI regarding its definition could require amending in order to be appropriate for?Yes, it is possible. It would require a good reason and widespread consensus. Saying that it suits you (and your wife and kids) in your chosen money-making strategy is unlikely to be a good enough reason.
We perhaps see competition more broadly and believe it has dimensions that are as important as just the way code is licensed. Competition must (and does) apply to all aspects of business.There's nothing wrong with competition but the free market needs a rulebook. I for one do not accept dishonest advertising as legitimate competition. Just as I do not accept non-payment of debts, cheating and other similar activity as legitimate business competition. Similarly, there's nothing wrong with competition between licenses either. However, every license must clearly explain to the user what it does and make no pretense of being something that it is not. The good name of the term "Open Source" is something that many people have worked hard on. We have taken the time and the trouble to educate the wider community as to precisely what "Open Source" stands for and why those principles are important. I may ask why so many non-OSI approved licenses are determined to keep calling themselves "Open Source" rather than any other name and the only logical conclusion is that the "Open Source" branding has value in the market and is respected by the consumer. This respect will be deflated if no one can figure out what "Open Source" actually stands for anymore. From a technical point of view, license proliferation is an additional burden for everyone -- more work reading the details of terms, more consideration of compatibility, more risks, more lawyers, etc. This is a practical concern for everyone in the industry.
Michael -
I like the way you phrased this:
"If no company can be successful by selling a CRM solution licensed under an OSI-approved license, then OSI (and the open source movement) should take the heat for promoting a model that is not sustainable in a free market economy. We can treat that case as a bug, and together we can work (with many eyes) to discern what it is about the existing open source definition or open source licenses made CRM a failure when so many other applications are flourishing."
I've written up what seems to me, from the outside, to be a "bug" at length here, but to quote myself in brief:
"The "bug" in the OSI licensing model is that it does not account for this lifecycle view of software development, and does not provide a viable way for start-ups, particularly start-ups developing end-user applications without an existing code based to build upon, to attract the capital required to reach maturity. I would like to see the OSI talk to start-ups and VCs and find a way to accommodate the needs of start-ups. My concern is that, if they stick to their current stance, the current wave of software start-ups will end up reinforcing the view that open source is not economically viable for end-user applications, but only applies to commodity OSes and middleware."
I'd be interested in your thoughts and feedback.

AMHERST, NY - The Western New York Regional Economic Development Council met Thursday and for the first time released its full report on the Buffalo Billion Investment Development Plan (Billion 2 Buffalo).
The 60-page report, which the council says will serve as a road-map for implementation of the Billion 2 Buffalo program (and which you can read for yourself here) includes a market analysis, stakeholder interviews, and best practices which led the council to establish six "signature investable initiatives".
They are described in a press release as:
Buffalo Center for Manufacturing Innovation: a state-of-the-art facility to support the growth of the region's manufacturing sector. It will be a shared services enterprise that provides support in commercializing applied research, developing more efficient operational processes, enabling entry into new markets, and up-skilling the existing workforce.
The Buffalo Science Productivity and Research Catalyzer (SPaRC): to help bring breakthrough healthcare innovations to market. The Accelerator supports researchers in developing translational research, acquiring patents, and then licensing those patents or developing them into businesses.
In the coming weeks, implementation committees will be formed with area stakeholders and council members, in an effort to herd the process further, according to the council.
"There are going to be people who think we should just throw something against the wall and maybe turn things around in a day," said Howard Zemsky, Co Chair of the WNY Regional Economic Development Council. "It's not possible. We get one opportunity at a billion dollar commitment and we had better put forward a very thoughtful, thoroughly analyzed approach."
Zemsky summarized the importance of developing just the right strategies by telling WGRZ-TV, "If we don't take extra time and care in planning (our approach), we will have squandered the best opportunity this region's had, since the opening of the Erie Canal."

High winds and heavy rains from Hurricane Charley reduced visibility severely and scattered trees across roadways including Central Ave. in downtown Naples, Florida on Friday, August 13, 2004.
In this file photo, Eddie Rock, from left, Henry Swanson and John Tyson work to board-up windows on the Ingram Building on Fifth Avenue on Sept. 12. Many of the stores along Fifth Avenue were closed and already secured Sunday, in preparation for Hurricane Ivan, which left the normally crowded streets nearly empty. Dan Ruhl, who was in charge of the workers, says it's the first time they've boarded the building since Hurricane George in 1998, though they installed floodgates for both hurricanes Charley and Frances.

VIDEO — Brett Gallant Knocks Down Lane McDermid
On Sunday afternoon, the Sound Tigers had a fight-filled game in Providence against the Bruins that included 10 fighting majors (even one from Ty Wishart) and 98 total penalty minutes between the two teams. The best fight in my opinion was Bridgeport's Brett Gallant against Lane McDermid in the second period.

Why Wall Street Should Stop Whining (Rolling Stone)
No one wants to hear bankers complain about bonuses or how boring it is to not gamble with other people's money, and Matt Taibbi notes that if you catch them accidentally being honest, they're a lot more worried about Europe than Dodd-Frank.
Preet Bharara's toothless bite of Wall Street (Salon)
Gary Weiss questions Time's decision to portray U.S. attorney Preet Bharara as the bogeyman bankers dream about on those nights when they wake up in a cold sweat given that his biggest cases have been against people who stole from the big banks.
Ancient History (TNR)
Roosevelt Institute Senior Fellow Mark Schmitt writes that President Obama has been criticized for governing as a moderate Republican, but the moderate Republican brand once had a lot to recommend it aside from its unfortunate capacity for self-destruction.

Little Room for New Workers (WSJ)
The job market is recovering, but the data show very little churn as those who currently have jobs are clinging to them for dear life out of fear that there still aren't enough opportunities waiting for them and the economy could take another plunge.
Tie U.S. Recovery Program to Economic Indicators (Bloomberg)
Peter Orszag points out that the slow, unsteady pace of the recovery highlights the benefits of implementing more automatic stabilizers and eliminating a lot of the guesswork and haggling of policymakers, much as they love doing that kind of thing.
Why White House sees political opportunity in the contraception battle (WaPo)
The Obama administration is sticking by a plan to require employer insurance to cover contraception, which may have to do with the fact that women and young people really like the idea, as do most groups that don't loathe the president anyway.
What We Learned From Planned Parenthood (The Nation)
Katrina vanden Heuvel compares the response to Planned Parenthood's defunding and the backlash against ACORN, pointing out that progressives have gotten much better at self-defense while the right has gotten worse at picking targets to smear.
Supporting Bad Habits With Public Money (NYT)
Casey Mulligan notes that restrictions that would keep the poor from spending their food stamps and welfare on junk food and strippers, respectively, don't have much point beyond political symbolism -- which is more than enough for their proponents.

There is more to write about Mr. Dynamic, and that will come soon. For now, let's take a little break from all that and check in with my life on the Gluten Free Challenge.
July 3, 2013
I don't have a scale in my home. I haven't in a long time because I don't want to focus on weight consciousness. I don't want to get caught up in a numbers head trip. Instead, I care about how I feel.
On a whim, I stopped by the gym to weigh myself. I was just curious. I hadn't weighed myself since my last doctor's appointment on May 23rd. I knew my clothes fit looser, but I still wasn't prepared for what happened next. I took off my shoes and stepped on the gym scale. 18 pounds lighter. What?!?!?! I stepped off, then stepped on the scale again. It was the same reading: 18 pounds lighter. Unbelievable!! Wait, I better really be sure. I asked one of the gym trainers if they had recently gotten a new scale. No, it's the same one as always. Okay, so it's real. I have actually lost 18 pounds since May 23rd. This is definitely due to the Gluten Free Challenge! It's really working! Wowza!!!
I got home and immediately texted Iris. OMG OMG OMG OMG. I gave her the good news. She texted right back. Iris asked if I had been dieting at all or just eating as I normally would. I wrote back. No diet, just normal eating. OMG, I really can't believe it. I understood immediately, this Gluten Free Challenge is going to save my life. It's going to take me from "surviving life" to living life again. It may even change my career path. I feel so much better than before. Iris asked if I thought this was a sustainable way to live. I said yes, as long as I can keep cooking. It also means I can't go back to my old schedule of working lots of overtime and attending too many meetings and events after work. It takes time to cook and take care of yourself. I can't go back to the old lifestyle.
I can't believe I haven't been starving or feeling deprived and I still lost weight. I have learned that I need to eat. I really have to eat or this doesn't work for me. If I wait too long in between meals and snacks, I get too hungry. And it even makes me cranky. I have to drink lots of water and I have to eat plenty of food. I love it! Eat more, not less!

|Honey Glazed Salmon
Favorite New Gluten Free Meals
-Still love the green smoothie - make it almost every day.
-Turkey Burgers in a Bowl (Drew Parisi recipe) - Love it!
-Honey Glazed Salmon with Walnuts over Curried Lentils - Yum!
-I tried to make Coach Mia's recipe, Sweet Potato Wedges with Guacamole. Mia's photo looked so pretty. My wedges look more like...not wedges. But they taste great!

July 4, 2013
Okay, just got out of the tub. Nice long soak. I looked in the mirror. I didn't try to avoid looking at myself. My brown eyes are sparkling. I feel good. I feel like a woman. I'm singing along to Chaka Khan's "I'm Every Woman" and I'm feeling it.
I bend down to put lotion on my feet. I look at my feet and ankles, and notice that the usual swelling is gone. I look at my right foot, which has a big bunion and (normally) lots of swelling around the big toe. Hey, wait a minute! I think the swelling around the toe and bunion is gone. At least it is way down. I feel the bunion several times, and rub. I actually think the bunion is slightly smaller. Can that be possible? I try to bend my big toe, which has been ramrod straight for quite a while. The big toe bends. It actually bends!! Is this from the gluten free diet? Holy crap! This is awesome. AWESOME!
Between the weight loss and the feet/ankles, I am seeing more changes and improvements with my new way of eating. I knew this Gluten Free Challenge would be good for me, but I didn't know it would be THIS GOOD.
July 17, 2013
A follow-up visit to the doctor's. I've lost 2 more pounds. That means I have lost 20 pounds in about 7 weeks. Also, my blood pressure dropped from 150/100 to 134/90 (both with medication). Another wowza!
I will definitely keep going with the Gluten Free Challenge. This is a great start, but I have to be in it for the long haul. One of the reasons it's working for me is that I don't feel like I am on a diet. I'm not going through deprivation. I'm just finding new foods to love. Let's go!
How do I feel now?
-Lost 20 pounds! Blood pressure reading dropped!
-Inflammation and swelling in feet/ankles is gone.
-No coughing anymore, no throwing up, stomach feels better.
-More energy.
-Better mood, better coping, more calmness.
-I see some "sexy" in the mirror. I feel my power again.
When I cook and eat, the food tastes delicious to me. I haven't been craving the old foods very much, which is pretty unbelievable. Before, I used to eat at restaurants a lot. Now I'm enjoying cooking and trying new recipes. I don't "run as hard" as before. I focus on coming home, cooking, writing, and making my home. I'm gaining a desire to organize and get rid of clutter. A desire to decorate, finish unpacking, and make a home I can be proud of. Time to let people in.
I have a new community, new friends, and new connections. A new support system of wonderful, honest, caring women (and now men too). I don't feel as alone and isolated. I am enjoying writing, and it's therapeutic too.
The secret for me is having NO GLUTEN IN THE HOUSE.
My Biggest Challenges
I have given up my coffee and hazelnut creamer. Drew wants me to have one cup in the morning with a meal, and that's it. She also said I should consider using a different non-dairy creamer. The hazelnut creamer I love and adore has too much sugar. I'm drinking less coffee, but not just one cup in the morning. It feels like comfort food to me, like a friend, like pleasure. Coffee and hazelnut. OMG so good. How can I give that up?
It's a close tie with my love for Nut Thins. I can eat a whole box for a meal. I love the crunchy texture. I love the taste. I feel like writing a love poem to Nut Thins. Well, to coffee with hazelnut creamer and Nut Thins. Please don't make me choose.
I'm still doing some emotional eating - but now with gluten free items. Especially late at night. This is a work in progress.
NOTE TO SELF: Do not make the full recipe of Iris' delicious Strawberry Shortcakes recipe. Don't make all 12 muffins or I will eat all 12. Iris offers a recipe for 3 muffin shortcakes and that is the way to go. Even the batter is delicious! I put the shortcakes into a bowl with the fresh berries, then poured coconut cream over it like a bowl of cereal. OMG that was decadent. It would have been perfect if only I had 1 or 2 shortcakes in the bowl instead of...well, more than 1 or 2.
I need to start a daily meditation practice. I can't just keep e-mailing Iris. (Fairy Angel Iris, whose support is helping me SO MUCH.) I know how. I just need to make the time. And do it.

Lancaster, NY - A group from Trinity Lutheran Church is on a mission right now in the Dominican Republic. They are sharing a special donation from some of our youngest good neighbors.
Students at Como Park Elementary were challenged to do an extra chore to earn a dollar to donate. The money will go to buy uniforms which are a requirement to go to school in the Dominican Republic. Uniforms cost $4. The same amount it costs to feed a child for two weeks.
The local students raised $1,300, even money to send 300 children to school. Bethany McKernan teaches music at Como Park elementary and is traveling to the Dominican Republic with the donations. She says, "Kids are willing to give if you give them the opportunity. I hope we keep giving them the opportunity."

BUFFALO, NY - It hasn't been a banner week for NYS Senator Mark Grisanti (R-Buffalo).
On Friday he learned no charges would be filed against those who severely beat his wife during a brawl inside the Seneca Niagara Casino two weeks ago.
This was less than 24 hours after learning he had lost the backing of the Erie County Conservative Party in his bid for re-election to the 60th District seat, with the party instead backing Democrat Charles Swanick, who formerly served in the Erie County Legislature for 26 years.
Erie County Conservative Party Chairman Ralph Larigo made clear his party's decision had "nothing" to do with the dustup at the casino, and everything to do with Grisanti's decision last spring to back a bill legalizing same sex marriage in New York State, less than a year into his first term which he won with Conservative Party backing.
"We knew this issue was on the horizon, and clearly he told us he was 100% for traditional marriage," Larigo told WGRZ-TV. "Five months later he breaks that commitment, and a lot of people on my board consider that a betrayal."
"This is a big deal," said veteran political campaign manager and consultant Michael Caputo. "The Conservative Party was very important to his election and I think folks in the Grisanti camp are regretting the Erie County Conservative Party walked away from them."
Political analyst Carl Calabrese, a Republican, agrees.
"It's very important for any Republican in Western New York to have the Conservative Party endorsement and especially when you're running in a district where you're the underdog in terms of enrollment," Calabrese said.
Calabrese also says, should the loss of Conservative Party backing end up costing Grisanti re-election, it could have ramifications state wide, especially for Republicans.
"This seat could very well decide what party controls the New York State Senate," where Calabrese notes the GOP holds a only a one vote majority.
Grisanti's office only issued a statement saying he was: "not surprised or shocked shot that a political deal was cut. It is my intention to continue to focus on creating jobs and opportunities in Western New York."
Meanwhile, in a sharply worded statement critical of Lorigo and calling him "an embarrassment to the party, who abandoned Conservative principles long ago in exchange for patronage jobs and legal clients" Niagara County's Conservative Party Chairman Dan Weiss is threatening that even if redistricting results in Grisanti no longer representing Niagara County, Weiss will "send my conservative committeemen into Erie County" to pass petitions on behalf of Grisanti should he -or anyone else- want to wage a Conservative primary against Swanik.
"Everybody has the right to say what they want to say, but I can tell you this. That the Erie County Conservative Party made its endorsements based on what I believe to be the right principles," Larigo said.
Swanick did not return several phone calls seeking comment, but did send a press release announcing his candidacy for State Senate and his intent to formally seek the Democratic Party Nomination.
However, Caputo doesn't think Swanick is a lock to get it.
"He is against gay marriage and against a woman's right to choose, and those are two very basic tenets of the Democrat Party, so we're not guaranteed that Chuck Swanick is going to be the Democrat (endorsed candidate) come primary day," Caputo said.

Drivers are reminded to watch for sudden storms this fall season.
With the beginning of fall at hand Carbon drivers are reminded to watch for inclement conditions as a little care could save a life, according to the driving information available at insurance.com.
To combat the issue locally, the American Association of Retired Persons will be conducting a driver safety course on Oct. 6 and 7 from 1 to 5 p.m.. at the Price senior citizens center
The course will instructed by Bill Novelli, AARP Chief Executive Officer, who stated via press release that "this program is the most recognized comprehensive nationwide course designed especially for the older driver. It takes into consideration the physical changes of the maturing driver and identifies ways the older driver may compensate for these changes."
According to the release, the eight hour course for drivers age 50 and older includes information on defensive techniques, new traffic laws, rules of the the road, age-related changes in vision, hearing and reaction time, how to compensate for the changes, how to handle problem situations such as left and right turns, right of way, freeway traffic, trucks and buses , what to do if confronted with an aggressive driver and how medications may affect driving.
The course will also teach the proper use of anti-lock brakes, airbags and safety belts and how to assess one's own and others' driving abilities.
The release stipulates that there will be no tests given in the class, only some short quizzes. Additionally, there will be an auto insurance discount for those who qualify.
For further information on the course please contact Leonard Miller through the AARP.
While the senior driving course will address general issues, the coming fall weather can make driving difficult for those of any age.
According to www.insurance.com, the combination of rain, fog and early darkness causes thousands of accidents every year, therefore their site has outlined the following tips to help avoid weather related accidents:
â¢Drive slowly, the most important things a driver can do to prevent an accident on a slick roadway is to slow down. Driving slowly allows for a greater amount of tire tread to make contact with the road, resulting in better traction. This technique will also stop motorists from driving through hidden puddles at a high speed which can lead to hydroplaning and loss of control.
â¢Keep a safe distance from the car in front of you, it can take up to three times longer to stop on wet roads, even with the best quality of tires, according to the site. Make sure to stay alert for the brake lights and use headlights even during the day to make the vehicle more visible to others.
â¢Be prepared for hydroplaning. If the car loses control in wet weather and begins to skid, do not slam on the brakes. Instead, apply the brake in a steady, slightly firm manner and steer in the direction of the skid.
For cars that have anti-lock brakes, drivers should apply more pressure and avoid pumping the pedal.
"Hydroplaning occurs when the tires glide across the surface of the water on the road. If the car starts to hydroplane, stop acceleration, but again don't stomp the brakes," explains the site. "Instead if you have a manual transmission, push in the clutch and let the care slow down on its own. If you have an automatic transmission, hold the steering wheel steady and lightly apply the brakes."
â¢Don't drive tired or distracted, driving in wet weather requires a person to be alert, particularly at night. If tired, pull off the road to a safe place and take a break or postpone the trip if possible.
Avoid eating, drinking, talking on the phone, fiddling with the radio or handing items to children in the back seat.
"Basically, avoid doing anything that may cause you to take your hands off the wheel even momentarily," states that site.
â¢Prepare for wet weather by checking the tires, check the tires regularly for wear. If there is any doubt about the tires ability to perform in the rain, meaning a tread depth of less then one-sixteenth of an inch is inadequate. It is also important to maintain the correct tire pressure. The correct pressure can be found in every automobiles operation manual.
Additionally make sure the tire are correctly balanced and aligned.
"Finally, if you live in an area where there's a lot of wet weather, you may want to invest in a tire that's specifically designed for slippery road conditions," concluded the site.

Becky and Sandra aren't the best of friends. Sandra is a middle-aged manager at a fast-food restaurant; Becky is a teenaged counter girl who really needs the job. One stressful day (too many customers and too little bacon), a police officer calls, accusing Becky of stealing money from a customer's purse, which she vehemently denies. Sandra, overwhelmed by her managerial responsibilities, complies with the officer's orders to detain Becky. This choice begins a nightmare that tragically blurs the lines between expedience and prudence, legality and reason.

The Apple MacBook lines are lines that have been very well reviewed by users and critics alike. There is no denying that the MacBook is a very solid device that delivers on all of the promises that it makes, even if it is a bit overpriced for what you are receiving in terms of specs. There are various lines of laptop MacBook computers that are currently available, and the ratings would suggest that each of them are part of the line of best laptop devices int eh world. They are not atop all of the major relevant categories in the world.
Their MacBook Air, a low end and very light laptop topped the list and got ahead of both the Dell and HP in the 11 inch category, further proving how much better of a device that they are. Their computers were also able to take the top spots in the next step up - the 13 inch class as well. The MacBook Air 13 inch was number one in the 13 inch category, and then was followed up by three different version of the 13 inch MacBook Pro. Apple also has a standard 13 inch regular MacBook that also performed very well and was able to come near the top of the list.
Apple also saw their MacBook Pro and MacBook take over the 15, 17 and 14 inch categories as well. It is clear that the MacBook is one of the best laptops that has ever been produced based on the ratings that it has received from Consumer reports. This is big news for Apple that will definitely be used as a selling point for their MacBook line at some point in the near future. To have an entire line of laptops be so highly rated is unheard of in this industry and will definitely be something that Apple will use to help them sell the laptops moving forward.

Product Test: Magnetic Tape
This isn't a test on the actual Magnetic Tape, it is more of us showing you an idea sent in by a viewer.
You can buy magnetic tape at most craft and office stores. A roll will cost you around $6. You take a small piece of tape, remove the back and stick it to a surface -- we put it on a bathroom mirror. Then, you take your hair pins, bobby pins, or whatever and stick them to the magnet. It's a great way to keep yourself organized.
You can also do this in a work space with your nails and screws or an office area with your paper clips.
It's quick, easy and can help keep you even a little more organized.

Did Barack Obama's speech (to congress about health care) work? Did it revive BamaCare?
The preliminary evidence suggests that it did not. Soon the afterglow of the speech will fade, and we will be back to status quo antebellum. During the debate over health insurance reform, we've all been inundated with misinformation, made up myths, fuzzy math and plain old lies thrown around by the Obama administration.
The reason is simple. Obama's problem can't be solved with eloquence of speech-craft. The American people have reviewed the health care issue, and they have decided they do not want a big government, one-size-fits-all solution from Washington that herds millions of people into a public plan and puts a bureaucrat between patients and doctors.

CANTON - Rep. William L. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, was enthusiastic about President Barack H. Obamas 2013 State of the Union address on Tuesday.
I thought it was a very good speech, Mr. Owens said, noting its positive tone and lauding the presidents efforts to build bridges across the aisle.
In particular, Mr. Owens thought the presidents emphasis on manufacturing jobs was a step in the right direction and could appeal to a bi-partisan audience.
Our first priority is making America a magnet for new jobs and manufacturing. After shedding jobs for more than 10 years, our manufacturers have added about 500,000 jobs over the past three, Mr. Obama said.
The president said he wants to create manufacturing hubs across the nation that will see businesses partner with the Departments of Defense and Energy to turn regions left behind by globalization into global centers of high-tech jobs.
Mr. Obama wants to create 18 of these hubs and Mr. Owens said he hopes to bring one of these hubs to upstate New York.
We do have some opportunities here, Mr. Owens said.
Mr. Owens pointed to the recent decision by rail-freight operator CSX Corp. to invest roughly $107.3 million in a line that runs from Syracuse, through Massena, to Montreal as an example of infrastructure developments in upstate New York that could entice businesses to relocate to the region.
Its a very good sign, Mr. Owens said.
Mr. Owens also praised the presidents focus on tax policy reform closing loopholes and reducing deductions.
Mr. Owens has long advocated tax reform and said the presidents speech was a step in the right direction.
And Mr. Owens also said the presidents military rhetoric sounded the right note regarding the drawdown of troops in Afghanistan over the next year and a half.
Mr. Obama promised to bring 34,000 troops home over the next year, just over half of the 66,000 American troops currently in Afghanistan.
Clearly this is following the plan which has been in place for about two years. I think its the right move. Its time we came home, but we need to do it in a safe method, Mr. Owens said.
Mr. Owens also agreed with the president that across-the-board budget cuts to federal programs due to take effect on March 1, known as sequestration, would be a bad idea.
Mr. Obama said THAT if Congress doesnt act now, about a trillion dollars worth of budget cuts would automatically go into effect this year. These sudden, harsh, arbitrary cuts would jeopardize our military readiness. Theyd devastate priorities like education, energy, and medical research. They would certainly slow our recovery, and cost us hundreds of thousands of jobs.
But, Mr. Owens said, Im not seeing much down here that would lead me to conclude that theres a resolution in the hopper.
While he doubts there will be time for Congress to act on a deal to avoid the budget cuts, Mr. Owens said, There will be time post-March 1 to recover from it.

Class of 1963
Fullback >>> 6-2, 226
1930-1937, 1943 Chicago Bears
Bronislaw Nagurski. . .Joined Bears after legendary college career at Minnesota. . .Became pro football's symbol of power, ruggedness. . . A bulldozing runner on offense, a bone-crushing linebacker on defense. . . Gained 4031 yards in 9 seasons . . .All-NFL, 1932, 1933, 1934, 1936, 1937. . .His two TD passes clinched Bears' 1933 title win. . .Helped 1943 Bears to NFL crown after five-year retirement. . .Born November 3, 1908, in Rainy River, Ontario. . .Died January 7, 1990, at age of 81.
Chicago Bears fullback Bronko Nagurski was the symbol of power football during the 1930s. His performances took on legendary proportions. Many eyewitness observers insisted that for sheer brutal line-smashing, no one came close to Nagurski.
Never fancy, he just ran straight ahead, over and through the opposition. Although he is best remembered for his bull-like running, he had no peer as a blocker and his tackling was as effective as any the game has seen. He was the complete player.
At the University of Minnesota he played four positions and was named All-America at both fullback and tackle. With the Bears, his defensive play was as awesome as his offensive ball carrying.
The jump pass, in which he would fake a plunge, then step back a yard or two, jump and lob a pass to a waiting receiver was devastating. His jump pass to Red Grange was responsible for the key touchdown in the Bears' 1932 victory over Portsmouth for the league title.
The next year, in the National Football League's first official championship game, Bronko passed for two touchdowns, including the game-winning score. When Nagurski couldn't get a raise to $6,500 in 1938, Nagurski retired to become a professional wrestler.
But in 1943, when the demands of World War II left the Bears short of manpower, he rejoined the team as a tackle. Late in the season, with Chicago trailing in a must-win game, he went back to the fullback position. The 35-year old Nagurski's line plunges keyed a drive to the tying touchdown and then set up the winning score. A week later, in the 1943 NFL title game against the Washington Redskins, Bronko, - who was named a first- or second-team All-NFL in seven of his first eight seasons – ended his career by scoring the touchdown that put the Bears ahead to stay.

Team USA: (Left to right) Roger DeCoster, Eli Tomac, Justin Barcia and Ryan Dungey. Photography by Kit Palmer
The AMA announced today the team that will represent the United States at next month's Motocross of Nations in Germany. Last week, Ryan Villopoto, the 2013 AMA Supercross Champion and leader of the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship revealed that he will be unavailable to compete in the event in order to have surgery on a lingering ankle injury immediately following the outdoor series. Villopoto said he unfortunately must have the surgery before the Nations in order to be ready for the Monster Energy Cup in October and ultimately the opening round of the 2014 Supercross Championship. In his absence, the official 2013 U.S. team will be made up of Nations veteran Ryan Dungey and Justin Barcia, and Nations rookie Eli Tomac. Both Dungey, and Barcia will compete on 450s, and Tomac on a 250.
The strength for the Americans is that everybody always works together as a team," said DeCoster, who himself competed in numerous Motocross of Nations in the 1960s and '70s. "Often, that is not the case for other teams, where the 250 guy often tries to prove he's better than the 450 guy or vice versa. Another of our strengths is our fans. The American fans are very much behind this race. For me, personally, this is my favorite event of the year, and I'm really looking forward to it."
Dungey, who returns for his fifth time to the FIM Motocross of Nations, said he is thrilled for the opportunity.
"I'm excited and obviously it's an honor," said Dungey, who is the defending 450 class champion in the AMA Pro Racing Motocross Championship. "Last year was a little rough, but this year will be better. We're all pretty good riders. We all work hard, we all get along and we're on the same page seeking a world team title. We'll work together and push each other and bring it, and if we can do that I think we'll win back the title this year."
Barcia, who was a rookie in 2012, said he's more confident now with a year of experience competing at the FIM Motocross of Nations.
"Last year I learned a lot and the experience will be huge for me this year," Barcia said. "I also have a lot more experience riding a 450 now, and that will be to my advantage because last year I didn't have much experience on that bike. I think it's awesome to represent my country, and our expectation is to win. We have a really strong team this year and we have a very good chance to bring back the trophy."
Tomac, who currently leads the points race for the 2013 AMA Pro Racing 250 Motocross class championship, said he is thrilled to be on the 2013 FIM Motocross of Nations team and is ready for the challenge.
"The Motocross of Nations is one of the most prestigious things to do in our sport and any rider in the USA would be proud to represent their country," Tomac said. "I'm super excited to go there, and I'm going to give it my best. Since it's my first time, I think I will have a lot of pressure to do well, but it's going to be a fun thing to do and represent. I'll give it my all. I feel like I'm riding my best and that I can do well for the team."
AMA Director of Supercross and AMA Pro Racing Relations Kevin Crowther said that the 2013 team is stacked from top to bottom.
"As always, the AMA enjoys significant support from the racers, the fans and, of course, the industry," Crowther said. "Not only are we bringing the most-talented riders possible, but our support crew is second to none, led by Hall of Famer Roger DeCoster along with staff such as Jeff Canfield and the Asterisk medical team, I'm confident that we'll give our riders everything they need to be successful."
Riders in the FIM Motocross of Nations compete in either the MX1, which features 450cc bikes; the MX2 class, which includes 250cc motorcycles; or the open class. In Germany this year, Dungey will race MX1, Barcia will race Open, and Tomac will compete in MX2.

MASSENA Its been a check mark in the towns Federal Aviation Administration audit for two years, and Highway Superintendent Frank J. Diagostino said its time to begin addressing how to fund rehabilitation of the runway at the Massena International Airport.
Its already been in the audit for two years. Weve been discussing it for two years, Mr. Diagostino said.
Were dealing with the striping, painting and marking of the runway, basically saying the town has to do something about it, he said. If its not done, they can pull our certification.
Although they arent issues that affect the operation of the airport runway, Deputy Town Supervisor Albert N. Nicola said, Its a thing that we cant delay doing. It has to be done.
And while Mr. Nicola said the runway has the required stripes, paint and markings, its in need of repair.
Theres still striping there. But its chipped and cracked, he said.
The problem is funding.
Mr. Diagostino said federal funding is available, but it hasnt yet been released.
If the funding is released by September, he said, the town could schedule the work for next year.
The first thing we have to do is remove the lettering, he said.
Mr. Nicola said the town needs to plot how it would move forward with the project without federal funding being immediately available.
Well sit with Frank and find out when and how were going to do it, he said. We just have to do it.

Marks the first step towards providing nuclear power operations service support
CHICAGO - Exelon Nuclear Partners today announced the completion of a Memorandum of Cooperation with CNNC Nuclear Power Company Ltd (CNNP), the largest nuclear energy owner and operator in China. The Memorandum is completed with the intent of entering into a series of agreements to promote safe, efficient, and reliable nuclear operations in CNNP's nuclear power operations in China. The Memorandum anticipates further agreements for service support to be completed by June 30, 2011, and marks the beginning of long-term cooperation between the companies.
"The significant investment in nuclear energy currently happening in China makes it a critical market for Exelon's global ambitions" said Thomas Mundy, President and CEO of Exelon Nuclear Partners. "We see a great opportunity for Exelon to share our global best practices and the Exelon Nuclear Management Model, and are encouraged by the positive and proactive approach of leading Chinese nuclear companies to adopting, incorporating, and benefiting from Exelon's decades of experience in safe and reliable nuclear operations. This Memorandum of Cooperation with CNNP places us in a position to be a preferred service provider helping CNNP and China to achieve their safe and reliable renewable energy goals and nuclear development plans."
Representatives from CNNP are scheduled to visit Exelon facilities in the first quarter of 2011, where they will explore cooperating opportunities in nuclear plant operating services and support. CNNP has expressed specific interest in the techniques and principles that have made Exelon the world's most efficient nuclear power operator, including:
"We look forward to learning from Exelon Nuclear Partners deep experience in managing nuclear power plant operations, and integrating some of their globally-recognized best practices into our own operations," said a representative from CNNP. "Matching our commitment to nuclear power development with Exelon's operating experience and expertise will be a win-win situation for both organizations in securing safe nuclear plant operations."
The signing of this MOC comes on the heels of the inaugural China International Nuclear Symposium in November 2010, where Exelon COO and WNA Chairman Christopher Crane met with leaders in the Chinese nuclear industry, expressing confidence and support for the ongoing development of the nuclear energy field. It also coincides with the arrival in the United States of Chinese President Hu Jintao, Minister of Commerce Chen Deming, and key ministers and representatives of China's energy industry.
