GPCA 2013: Mideast in a period of transition
November 19, 2013 | Natasha Alperowicz in Dubai
The Gulf Petrochemical and Chemical Association's (GPCA; Dubai) annual forum, attended by more than 1,800 delegates, kicked off in Dubai today with networking and an industry seminar presented by IHS Chemical. Sanjay Sharma, managing director/Middle East and India at IHS Chemical, says that new feedstock allocations to companies in the region have decreased and that feedstock pricing policy is uncertain. Also, governments within the Gulf Cooperation Council have shifted to favor chemical subsidiaries of national oil companies or their joint ventures with...

Wiglet, not wig
By Grammy
from Tremonton, Utah
I have chin length hair, so it's not long enough to pull through and blend. Honestly, even with longer hair I feel the gaps would be too eveident. I could never wear this out in public. However, the hair felt very real, just wish there was more of it.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Would be great if only...

About Me Minimalist
This hair volumizer would have been perfect if the crown had been workable. I agree with the other reviewers the spaces are too far apart on the crown and for some reason very difficult to get my own hair to come through in this area. But if If I could it still isn't enough to cover the large openings left on top. Great if you want to wear a hat all day.The rest of it because of the way the hair hangs down works and I could get my own hair blended just fine. Most of us wanting a volumizer want it because of thinning hair on top this one won't work. I'd buy this in a heart beat if it was reworked. The style, weight and color was perfect if only I could get the top to work. Also I would really prefer something in a same style but at a shoulder grazing length.

This was by far the hardest thing to try to put on and to blend your own hair with. So unnatural looking all around the scalp and just overall dissapointed. Thank goodness it was on sale for cheap or I would have been very upset. not worth the hassel to send back...so my Halloween costume it will become a apart of.

Way way way too shiny, even after washing. The wefts are too far apart, so even when you pull your own hair through, the stitching shows. Not a good product.

By PAMELA J. BRANDPrice
How many citizens in Carbon County realize that there is not district wide policy in place in our public schools against bullying?
Students who have nothing better to do are starting untrue rumors, spreading gossip, bullying, threatening to beat up other students, and they are making fun of other kids just because they are different.
What will it take for this county and community to realize that even though we are small, we are not above the laws and what is right?
I have good ideas of how to help but can not get any help on who to go to in order to implement these ideas.
We need three speakers for every school from K-12 twice a year. The topics of what bullying can cause (it causes kids to not only kill their bullies but innocent people as well), what gossiping and spreading rumors can do to the victim and what making fun of others can cause. These things can make others feel so low that they kill themselves and leave behind trails of many tears and sorrow.
My idea for a class for those students and only those who are have conflict is simple: They take a class and in order to pass class students who are having conflict must be taught how to deal with conflict and they have to find a solution to their conflict that is healthy and helpful for them, the school, and the parents. They need to discuss why they are having this conflict. It would be nice if at least one parent went to this class not to put blame on any student involved but more as a help to all students to find solutions to conflict.
We have to remember that these are the same children that are going to be in charge when we are old, and as a parent that is a scary thought.
If a student refused the class they would have consequences such as staying after school, cleaning bathrooms with toothbrushes, writing a 10-20 page paper on the cause and effect of bullying, gossip, rumors, etc.
I as a parent believe that we waste too much time sending kids to the courts most of this can and should be handled at the school level. DCSF does not even need to be involved.
I firmly believe as parents we need to start helping the school by giving them ideas on how to help our kids. Not all kids who make bad choices need court or DCSF. They need parental involvement at the school level. The school can only do so much, and they do try.
This letter is by no means meant to point any fingers at any one person or group.
This problem just needs a solution.

Akron, OH (Sports Network) - It was a long time coming, but the Massachusetts Minutemen finally picked up their first victory as a member of the Football Bowl Subdivision as they defeated the Akron Zips, 22-14, in Mid-American Conference action at InfoCision Stadium.
UMass (1-9, 1-5 MAC) entered the week with a 12-game losing streak, but thanks in part to kicker Blake Lucas who knocked through three field goals, the team finally broke into the win column for the first time since topping Richmond, 28-7, on Oct. 29, 2011. Quarterback Mike Wegzyn threw for 266 yards and a touchdown and also ran for another late in the fourth quarter to help put the contest out of reach for the visitors.
The Zips (1-10, 0-7), now losers of eight in a row, were led by Dalton Williams who converted 34-of-51 passes for 332 yards and a score, but he was also intercepted four times by the UMass defense. Jawon Chisholm ran for a game-high 103 yards and a TD in the setback.
Lucas opened the contest with field goals of 23 and 26 yards in the first and second quarters, respectively, for the Minutemen. The team followed with a 24- yard TD pass from Wegzyn to Alan Williams, while Lucas knocked through a 35- yard effort in the final seconds of the first half to give the visitors a 15-0 lead at the break.
Akron finally broke through with a one-yard TD run by Chisholm for the only points of the third.
UMass responded with a one-yard touchdown run by Wegzyn with just under four minutes remaining in the fourth to again build the lead back up to double digits.
The Zips tried to keep hope alive as they moved the ball 76 yards on nine plays in 1:26, capped by a 19-yard TD pass from Williams to Marquelo Suel, but by then it was too late.
Akron finished the day with 427 yards of total offense, but was limited to just 4-of-12 on third down.

A photo from the live-stream video of the tournament while Williams watches Wooster celebrate.
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — After blowing an 18-point lead in the second half, Williams College men's basketball team will not be playing for the title.
The Ephs were dealt a crushing lose Friday to the College of Wooster in the Division III semifinals at the Salem Civic Center in Salem, Va. Williams blew an 18 point lead in the second half and could not get a last ditch effort by Taylor Epley to fall - losing the game 73 - 71.
Williams fans who made the trip to Virginia had a lot to cheer about in the first half but that changed in the second half. Williams blew an 18-point lead to lose out on a championship bid.
Williams stormed out of the gates hitting 7 3-pointers and out rebounding Wooster 17 to 13 in the first half. The Ephs returned to the locker room with a 42 - 28 lead.
But with about eight minutes left the complexion changed dramatically. In less than three minutes later, Wooster had cut the 18 point lead to three with 15 unanswered points.
Wooster took its first lead, 65 - 64, with only about three minutes left in the game.
But they fought back. Led by Troy Whittington, who finished the day with 12 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, the Ephs jousted with the Fighting Scots - exchanging baskets in the waning minutes.
Nate Robinson put the Ephs in the lead from the free-throw line with about one minute remaining. Robinson had an outstanding day sinking 21 points but when the Ephs were down by one with 35 seconds to go he missed a layup to give Wooster the ball.
Wooster's Nathan Balch was fouled to stop the clock and made only one of the two shots - giving the Ephs what could have been the final possession. They took the ball down the court and James Wang launched a 3-pointer for the win but missed.
But that was not quite the end, the rebound was tied up and the Ephs got another chance for the tie. With 2 seconds remaining the Ephs in-bounded the ball from the baseline to heavily defended Taylor Epley who could not send the game to overtime from the post.
Wooster outscored the Ephs 45 - 29 in the second half while Williams turned the ball over 10 times. The Ephs shooting percentage dropped from 65.2 percent in the first half down to just 36.8 percent in the second.
Wooster was led by their star Ian Franks who scored 24 with 9 rebounds and 4 assists. Wooster's Justin Hallowell scored 18 with 8 rebounds.
For Williams, Wang was held to 14 points and 6 rebounds.
The boy of summer started playing down in Fort Meyers and the sun has begun to shine in Massachusetts. With that us baseball fans get antsy. So, with the introduction of a new baseball season, iBerkshires will be introducing a new sports blog.
I will be in charge of this blog though I may not be the only one posting. I am a staff writer here at iBerkshires and I am a Boston sports fan. My coverage plan for this is whatever I feel like writing. My projection is that it will be heavy on the Bruins and the Red Sox. I will try to snag some local sports too.
We got that out of the way so let's talk some baseball. What do we think about this starting lineup? I'm already thinking about October.
1) Jacoby Ellsbury - Steal bases and stop crying about your poor little ribs.
2) Dustin Pedoria - Looking creepy with the slicked-back hair but an all-around great player.
3) Youk - YOOOOOUUUUUKKK!
4) Papi - Let's try to start hitting in the first month this time.
5) A-Gonz - Great addition. Smaller ballpark, power pitching, protection in Papi - there is a lot of unseen possibilities here.
6) Crawford - Even better addition. Crawford was the best pick up because of the options. He can leadoff, he can steal a base, he can hit for power and average and play defense. A great baseball player and should be fun to watch.
7) Drew - Bad back, bad knees, a great arm and can still hit.
8) Saltalamacchia - Who knows. I think Tek might come alive and take this spot in the lineup.
9) Scutaro - Solid and fundamentally sound player and I'd like to see him bump to number 2 in the lineup. He is an intelligent player and will help move the runners. Imagine starting off the games with Ellsbury getting on, stealing second and then Scutaro putting a little ground ball to the right. With 1 out to start the game you are looking to Youk and Papi to hit a deep fly ball - that's doable.
1) Beckett - Nasty but I think these hitters are getting used to him a bit. Still strong enough to win 15-games.
2) Lester - Even Better. Staying healthy with this lineup, he could be a 20-game winner.
3) Lackey - Should have a better season now that he's seen the AL East hitters and knows the city. The East Coast and West Coast are drastically different and I'm sure Lackey was a bit distracted by the adjustment last year. Maybe 10-10 or 12-12ish but he will have some important ones.
4) Dice-K - Frustrating but effectively eats innings. Ideally, I'd like to see Dice-K pitching last in the rotation so he'll pitch before Beckett. Teams will have to deal with his pitter-patter on the edges and then the next day face Beckett's fastball pounding the zone. 10-14? Maybe? I have no real projection here.
5) Buchholz - Best on the staff rounding out the rotation. Stay focused, keep it down, throw strikes and he'll have another great season. Two 20-win pitchers on the same staff? It is March, so I say yes.
Bard, Paps, Jenks - We might be on closer by committee for a bit of this year. However, that committee consists of closers and not middle relievers like we used to have. Jenks, Paps, Bard will be lights out in the back end.
Okajima - Poised to have either a great season or a terrible one. We might be seeing Okajima on the trading block.
Wakefield - Mop until a starter goes down. How many wins does he need?
Wheeler - Great addition. In the heavy hitting AL East you can never have enough options out in the pen.
Aceves - Good pick up. Expect Doubront or Atchison to move into this back-end too.
Other faces we shall see.
Tek - I think his hitting will come around and take over the starting position.
Lowrie - I like him as a utility player but not as a starter yet. He could be in the future.
Cameron - Not sold on him yet. Let's see how he does.
Darnell McDonald - How can you not like Darnell? He may not be an all star but he is a fan favorite.
Lars Anderson - Trade him. We have enough first basemen and we'll need something at the trade deadline.
Kalish, Nava, Reddick - Last year's starters in AAA. They've shown they can step up and any of these guys could fill in a backup outfielder role.
Bowden, Atchison, Tazawa, Doubront - I expect all four of these guys to get a chance and all have a chance to compete for a permanent bullpen spot.
Jose Iglesias - This kid has good hands but I don't expect him to make to the show this year.

The Turnaround Men
October 26, 2011
Just after dawn on a cool morning in September 2008, two FBI agents and a police officer walked into the Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas and took the security elevator up to the twenty-third floor, where they knocked on the door of a high-roller haven known as the Grand Lakeview Suite. A Minnesota businessman named Tom Petters answered wrapped in a bathrobe. After a moment's hesitation, he invited them in.

The Ogdensburg Bridge and Port Authority is courting three grain companies to store their goods at its Paterson Street port.
Authority Director of Commercial and Industrial Development John A. Rishe said that the prospects are a Canadian grain trading company, a New York grain and feed ingredient company and Southwest U.S.-based grain company.
The Canadian firm, with whom Mr. Rishe has met in Toronto three times, wants to use the port for cargo ship deliveries and subsequent U.S. distribution.
The New York company, whose officials have toured the port, are looking for a rail-to-truck point for delivery to area farms and feed dealers.
The Southwest U.S.-based grain company, according to Mr. Rishe, recently acquired two mills in the Northeast. He will meet with its representatives next week in Ogdensburg and try to convince them to use the port for bigger bulk shipments to the region.
The companies names were not released because no commitments have been made.
Mr. Rishe said that getting a commitment to use the port from the three prospects - or any prospects - is a matter of being the right place at the right time.
Itd be nice if one of them signed up this year, he said.
The port has over 125,000 square feet of warehousing space, including a newly built 30,000-square-foot bulk storage facility.
OBPA Deputy Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer Frederick S. Morrill said Thursday that storage at the port now consists of 300 tons of an earlier 12,000-ton shipment of canola grain.
On Wednesday, the authority approved a port storage agreement with Wight and Patterson Feeds Inc., Canton.

Submission Intel: Optical Thunderbolt this year->
angry tapir writes: "Optical cables for Thunderbolt ports that enable faster data transfers over longer distances on computers such as Apple's Macintosh will be available later this year, according to Intel. Thunderbolt, introduced just over a year ago, is a high-speed connector technology that shuttles data among computers and with peripherals. Current Thunderbolt installations are based on copper, but optical cables could provide more bandwidth and longer cable runs in the future."

Bumpski with a little bit of work...I'm ending up going with metallic red and black over purple and chrome, since I couldn't find the purple I wanted locally and I wanted to work on it this weekend. I've been making a list about how much I'm putting into it for reference for myself, but you guys might find it interesting too.
Bike $25
Spent 3 hours sanding her down today, needs 2 more probably. This was the roughest part.
Handlebars, stem, seat post, chain guard, cranks and cog will be black. Velspar paint $4.

aslo another great track sounds great on full vol
It needed a chrome base first.
Half way done.
Got some more obnoxious things coming in the mail. Grips, skulls, stickers, neon for the rims. Still have to touch up the black parts and paint the rims black, but we're getting it there
Hope y'all are enjoying seeing my progress. I won't bump again until its 100% done.
Maybe buy a new chain?
On the list! I couldn't find my chain tool haha. Probably a new front tire too.

Approaches to Teaching Blake's
Songs of Innocence and of Experience
Editor(s): Robert F. Gleckner, Mark L. Greenberg

Published: 1989
ISBN: 9780873525183 (paperback)
ISBN: 9780873525176 (hardcover)
"Amongst these riches then, there should be something for everyone who teaches Blake's lyric poetry, especially if readers are willing to share the editors' 'delight in imagining fruitful class discussions emanating from significant disagreements with approaches offered here.'"
Blake: An Illustrated Quarterly
Responses to a survey conducted for this volume indicate that most teachers of Blake begin with
Songs of Innocence and of Experience;
the work is included in the syllabi of courses on literature and poetry at all levels, as well as courses in religious studies, humanities, and composition. The book's continuing fascination can be attributed to the many intellectual, theoretical, and pedagogical challenges it presents for students and teachers alike, such as the particulars of Blake's language and punctuation, his use of illustrations, differences in the order of the poems among the various extant editions, and considerations of what--for Blake and for other poets--constitutes "writing" and "the book."
This Approaches volume, like other volumes in the MLA's Approaches to Teaching World Literature series, is divided into two parts. The first part, "Materials," reviews editions and anthologies, critical works (including a survey of available commentaries on each poem), background materials, and facsimile and microfiche reproductions. In the second part, "Approaches," distinguished teachers and scholars describe strategies for presenting the
in the classroom. The first four essays discuss how teachers can bring theoretical concerns, such as textual and feminist approaches, to bear on specific poems. The following four essays address the inclusion of
in particular classes, from a survey on English Romanticism to a literature course at a technological institute. The third set of essays examines the
from specific literary perspectives, such as an analysis of the variations among different editions and an investigation of the work's biblical foundations. The final four essays present approaches for teaching individual poems.

Not a rejection, but the W and L and UVA waitlist letters were similar, down to the "information sheets" that were, almost word for word, the same, including the snappYQ: Is there anything I can do to improve my chances of admission?A: Short of actually eliminating accepted students, no.
I had to laugh at the ones that praised me for my superior achievements or outstanding qualifications. Obviously, I'm not superior or outstanding enough. Reject me, but don't insult my intelligence too. I mean you're already basically telling me you don't think I'm smart enough for your school. Do you also think I'm not smart enough to pick up on your disingenuous bullsh-t.
I know it's not a law school rejection, but I'm still smarting over my rejection to UCLA undergrad. In addition to all the "many quilified applicants" crap, it (honsest to God) ended with the following (paraphrased of course):"We have included a list of Community Colleges in your area, and would be happy to review your transfer application in two years time"And, indeed, the included a list of all Community Colleges (with phone numbers and adresses) within a 100 mile radius. Not only am I not good enough for their school, but, in their eyes, I'm not good enough for any 4-year institution! However, they will be happy to take my money again in the future...

Don't worry be happy! A backpack is just so unexpectedly chic. The trick to pulling this trend off is with I- am-not-really-wearing-a-backpack-kind-of-attitude. Don't wear it too high or load it with too much or you will look like you are going to class. Instead swing it off one shoulder really relaxed or find a good medium height to wear it on your back. We personally love the smaller mini backpack version, BSMILEY, because its smiley face and bright yellow color will just make you happy.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- Hundreds came to honor former South African President Nelson Mandela at an unveiling of a statue of the anti-apartheid leader.
The statue is at the South African Embassy on Massachusetts Avenue in Northwest D.C.
There was song, celebration and speeches for the man affectionately referred to as Madiba, the Father of South Africa.
"Dignity, humility, respect, courage truly the spirit of Mandela."
Zindzi Mandela came for the unveiling of the 9-foot statue of her father.
*If you're viewing this on our iPad app, click VIDEO then choose photo option.
"Let us not forget to celebrate in his sunset years that we are bringing those values alive as we strive to become better people," saidZindzi Mandela.
Mandela's Grandson, "We appreciate what's been done and we just want to continue celebrating my grandfather's legacy."
Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in prison during apartheid and would later become president of the nation that imprisoned him.
Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool, "Mahtma Ghandhi Statue is further down the road, Martin Luther King Memorial on the Mall and today we add Nelson Mandela outside the embassy on Massachusetts."
The statue stands at the spot where people protested against apartheid and were arrested. It's the spot where the 'Free South Africa Movement' was born.
Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton and Randall Robinson walked out of DC Superior Court after being arrested nearly 30 years ago. That began the daily protests at the South African embassy.
"Ambassador Fourie answered our appeal that day by having us arrested and removed from the embassy in shackles," Robinson said.
Joining the movement, the band 'Kool and the Gang' who refused to perform in South Africa's Apartheid era.
George Bell, Kool and the Gang, "We are totally honored to honor Nelson Mandela for not only what he's done to South Africa but for all people in the world. There were sanctions in South Africa that the world stood up to move forward, it's a great step for all of humanity for what Nelson Mandela accomplished for all of us."
Mandela is a global figure for peace but he is also a family man, a father who was in prison for half of his daughter, Zindzi Mandela's life.
"I feel a deep sense of pride. I think it's very important in this stage of my father's history that his values are documented for future generations. How is your father? He is fine. Typical of a 95-year-old who's health is frail but he's with us and we appreciate every moment with him,"Zindzi Mandela said.
Here's a look at some of the important dates in Nelson Mandela's life:
- In June 1961 - Mandela begins organizing the armed struggle against apartheid.
- In June 1964 - he's sentenced to life in prison for four counts of sabotage.
- In July 1989 - Meets with South African President Botha.
- February 1990 - Mandela is released from prison after more than 27 years.
- April 29, 1994 -he's elected the first black president of the Republic of South Africa in the first open election in the country's history.
- He leaves office in June 1999.
There is much speculation of Mandela's frail health but his daughter says "this man is a fighter, he's not going anywhere anytime soon. He's determined to be with us."
She says only his maker knows how long he will be with us.
Robinson, "In important ways he will never die. That is what he has given to humanity. He will last in the hearts in the lives he touched and there are millions of those."

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1
# 80
I like both players, and TJ McDonald has been growing on me, as i soured a bit earlier in season, but no way we need to get both.. Rambo is a sensational playmaker, and TJ McDonald just strikes me as a GIANT kinda S, and almost perfect replacement for KP, but no need for both.. I'd be pleased to get one or the other, but not both...
I had dreams of a TJ/KP backfield. All USC prospects took a collective nose dive in the beginning of the season for whatever reason. However, McDonald is the type of player that transcends the safety designations.

|Fewer Seek Jobs; Unemployment Drops
|Written by Steve Frank
|Friday, 29 March 2013 06:15
Finally, in February, unemployment figures for North Carolina—and for the country—began to back off after several months of increases. But an analysis reported by the North Carolina News Network yesterday said that the main reason was some of the unemployed quit filing for compensation—
not necessarily that they found jobs. The February rate for North Carolina was down a tenth of a percent to 9.4 percent from January's 9.5, the national rate dropped two tenths of a percent from 7.9 to 7.7%. the number of North Carolinians employed actually decreased by just under 5000 between January and February, but the number reporting that they were unemployed fell by 6500, creating the statistical drop. Bad news for the High Country—the leisure and hospitality services sector lost 3000 jobs between January and February in seasonally adjusted figures—not a great sign for the tourism industry. County by county figures will be released at the end of next week.

CANTON The Development Authority of the North Country will be the recipient of a $250,000 award from Empire State Development to further its installation of broadband projects in underserved parts of the region.
As part of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomos Regional Economic Development initiative, DANC will receive the funding toward its design and installation of six miles of internet fiber cable in Canton and the village of Rensselaer Falls. The project was initiated to provide telecommunication diversity to the Canton Corning plant but will also generally expand broadband connectivity.
The main purpose was to get service to Corning, said David M. Wolf, DANC telecommunication division manager. As long as we were going up to Corning, we thought wed continue up to Rensselaer Falls.
Corning is served by Verizon but wanted a backup as assurance it could communicate with its headquarters and exchange data, Mr. Wolf said.
The fiber line will connect in Rensselaer Falls to a system operated by Slic Network Connections.
Slic may provide the last mile service to residents in the area who live along the DANC line, Slic President and General Manager Phillip J. Wagschal said.

POTSDAM Hazing, underage drinking and an alleged sexual assault have village and SUNY Potsdam officials taking a hard look at the role fraternities and sororities play in the community.
The college created a Greek Life Task Force to try to find a solution to a culture of bad behavior among student organizations.
On Monday, the task force held its first public meeting to solicit feedback from students, staff and faculty. Most of those who attended were members of Greek organizations, defending their groups contributions to the college and the community.
Folks spent a lot of time talking about the benefits theyve had and the positive connections they have made, said associate professor Alan L. Hersker, chairman of the task force and Anthropology Department chairman.
Lately, those benefits have taken a back seat to reports of bad behavior.
The college is investigating four reported cases of hazing from last semester, the details of which are unclear. The college will not comment on ongoing investigations, said Julie M. Dold, assistant director of student life.
Since 2009, three of SUNY Potsdams Greek organizations have lost their recognition from the college.
Members of the Sigma Pi fraternity were charged with incidents of drug use and assaults before the fraternity was banned in 2009. The Phi Chi Epsilon fraternity was banned in 2009 for pledging new members and hosting a party with alcohol while under probation. The Psi Phi Delta fraternity was banned in 2011 for repeated hazing and alcohol violations.
In response to the rash of hazing, SUNY Potsdam instituted a new set of temporary restrictions until a more permanent solution could be found.
If we just keep doing the same thing over, were not going to see different results, Ms. Dold said.
The restrictions state that the training period for prospective members must last three weeks or less. Any pledging programs must take place between 9 a.m. and midnight on a public campus location, with plans for the events submitted to college officials beforehand.
Most Greek organizations have been working hard to make sure they stay within the guidelines, Ms. Dold said, but the behavioral issues have not disappeared.
A female SUNY Potsdam student allegedly was sexually assaulted at an off-campus fraternity house last month. The identity of the fraternity has not been revealed, so it is unknown whether it is one officially recognized by SUNY Potsdam or Clarkson University.
Incidents with fraternities and sororities tend to spike and dip, Ms. Dold said. The task force attempts to cut down on the spikes.
The problem is a national one, and everyone is short on answers, Ms. Dold said.
The research on hazing prevention is very much behind the times, she said.
The good work done by Greek organizations does not cancel out negative incidents, nor vice versa, Ms. Dold said.
They are not mutually exclusive, she said.
Fraternities and sororities tend to donate a large portion of their time and money to service. SUNY Potsdam fraternities donated a collective $10,000 to the American Cancer Societys Relay for Life on campus last week.
The task force will spend the rest of the semester continuing to gather information about the effect fraternities and sororities have on the community.
It will make recommendations to the college administration in May.
Thats what our challenge is, to sift through all the different information available to us and try to get to the objective part of it all, Mr. Hersker said.
Based on the comments I heard last night, fraternities and sororities are willing to change.
Clarkson University has had fewer reported incidents of Greek misbehavior, although the Tau Delta Kappa fraternity was banned last year for repeated incidents of providing alcohol to minors.
Behavior among Greek organizations has been mostly good for the last few years, said Stephen I. Newkofsky, Clarksons interim dean of students.
We went through what it seems like SUNY is going through back in the late 90s, Mr. Newkofsky said.
At that time, Clarkson put stricter rules in place. Over time, the most troublesome groups were banned, with only those with a history of good behavior remaining.

We investigate the endogenous cannabinoid (marijuana-like) system. The brain makes its own endogenous cannabinoids which interact with cannabinoid receptors to cause effects on a number of physiological systems including anxiety and mood, control of food intake, learning and memory, reward and addiction, stress, analgesia and temperature regulation. We are particularly interested in three aspects of cannabinoid physiology: the role of endocannabinoids in stress-induced relapse to cocaine seeking behavior, the role of endocannabinoids in anxiety, and the role of endocannabinoids in analgesia. .

Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the Westby Gregory Maguire
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
When Dorothy triumphed over the Wicked Witch of the West in L. Frank Baum's classic tale, we heard only her side of the story. But what about her arch-nemesis, the mysterious witch? Where did she come from? How did she become so wicked? And what is the true nature of evil?
Gregory Maguire creates a fantasy world so rich and vivid that we will never look at Oz the same way again. Wicked is about a land where animals talk and strive to be treated like first-class citizens, Munchkinlanders seek the comfort of middle-class stability and the Tin Man becomes a victim of domestic violence. And then there is the little green-skinned girl named Elphaba, who will grow up to be the infamous Wicked Witch of the West, a smart, prickly and misunderstood creature who challenges all our preconceived notions about the nature of good and evil.
"Children — children of all ages, as Maguire reminds us in this splendid novel — need witches. Gregory Maguire has taken this figure of childhood fantasy and given her a sensual and powerful nature that will stir adult hearts with fear and longing all over again. It's a brilliant trick — and a remarkable treat." The Times-Picayune
"It is to [Maguire's] everlasting credit that he has succeeded so admirably that his book stands as an independent and inspired whole; it is also very close to being an instant classic....Maguire has hit a home run his first time at bat. That Wicked is a first novel is remarkable because it is so fully realized, so rich and involving. It is the most seamless interweaving of fantasy and reality since John Crowley's peerless Little, Big, written in poetic language as graceful as a Ray Boldger tap-dance." School Library Journal
"An outstanding work of imagination." USA Today
"Save a place on the shelf between Alice and The Hobbit — that spot is well deserved." Kirkus Reviews
"Gregory Maguire has taken this figure of childhood fantasy and given her a sensual and powerful nature that will stir adult hearts with fear and longing all over again." New Orleans Times-Picayune
"Gregory Maguire's shrewdly imagined first novel...is part fantasy thriller, part psychological study, part political cautionary tale. It's all fascinating. And it's impossible to deny the magic of Gregory Maguire." New York Newsday
"It's a staggering feat of wordcraft, made no less so by the fact that its boundaries were set decades ago by somebody else. Maguire's larger triumph here is twofold: First, in Elphaba, he has created (re-created? renovated?) one of the great heroines in fantasy literature: a fiery, passionate, unforgettable and ultimately tragic figure. Second, Wicked is the best fantasy novel of ideas I've read since Mervyn Peake's Gormenghast or Frank Herbert's Dune. Would that all books with this much innate consumer appeal were also this good. And vice versa." Los Angeles Times
"Listen up, Munchkins. Stop your singing, stop the dancing. The Wicked Witch is no longer dead. But not to worry. Gregory Maguire's shrewdly imagined and beautifully written first novel, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, not only revives her but re-envisions and redeems her for our times." Newsday
"Maguire combines puckish humor and bracing pessimism in this fantastical meditation on good and evil, God and free will, which should...captivate devotees of fantasy." Publishers Weekly
An astonishingly rich re-creation of the land of Oz, this book retells the story of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, who wasn't so wicked after all. Taking readers past the yellow brick road and into a phantasmagoric world rich with imagination and allegory, Wicked just might change the reputation of one of the most sinister characters in literature.
This is the book that started it all! The basis for the smash hit Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, Gregory Maguire's breathtaking New York Times bestseller Wicked views the land of Oz, its inhabitants, its Wizard, and the Emerald City, through a darker and greener (not rosier) lens. Brilliantly inventive, Wicked offers us a radical new evaluation of one of the most feared and hated characters in all of literature: the much maligned Wicked Witch of the West who, as Maguire tells us, wasnt nearly as Wicked as we imagined.

POTSDAM A village man faces a petit larceny charge in connection with the alleged theft of medication from a local store.
Village police said Edward L. Gonyeau IV, 23, was observed on video footage stealing medication March 13. Village police did not release information about what exactly Mr. Gonyeau allegedly took, nor the name of the store.
Paperwork in the case was filed initially in Village Court, as Mr. Gonyeau was out of the area, police said. He turned himself in Tuesday and is to appear later this month in Village Court to answer the charges.

Homepage > Atlas and Time Zones
- About
the Astrodienst Atlas
The Astrodienst atlas contains more than 250 000 towns. For more detail on the sources of the database, click on Astrology Atlas Query on the homepage, and follow the link About this atlas.
- Can
I use your atlas and time zone information for professional services?
The free charts and free readings from our website are for private purposes only. They must not be redistributed commercially.
If your intended 'professional astrology service' is computer based, you will need to purchase software for it. Such software will have its own atlas and time zone database built-in for your use. You will however be allowed to use our atlas database for crosschecks.
- Is
there access to time zone information on your website?
The time zone database is integrated into all services. When you enter natal data or run charts, the correct time zone information is automatically taken into account.
We do not publish the time zone database content, so that all that valuable and unique information can be used elsewhere. This information is proprietary. You can use the database by using our services for your horoscopes, but you cannot copy the content of the database.
- Do you have an
option which allows the user to add places to the database or to enter
the latitude and longitude of a particular place manually?
If you provide reliable co-ordinates (longitude and latitude) and also tell us the source, we are happy to add additional towns.
An automatic entry by web site users is not possible. The difficulty is that each town must be linked to one of nearly 4000 different time zone history tables. In many areas of the world there has been a complex time zone history where often nearby cities, counties or provinces have had different time zones or daylight savings time rules in the past. Only experts can assign the correct time zone history table for each new town, by comparing the new entry to the rest of the database.

If you run into someone who once lived in a communist country, and they currently live in the United States (or the West), they usually take a dim view of their prior situation. I've chatted with folks from the Soviet satellites on their old country and heard horror-story after horror-story on reality in these hell-holes. Milla Jovovich, the actress from Resident Evil and the Fifth Element, was born in Kiev (where I hear they have excellent chicken.) And she found a picture of herself as a little girl:
And her response to it was amusing. So depressing and communist, she tweeted.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate reporter
The United States Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has issued an environmental assessment notice of intent in connection with Questar Pipeline Company's proposed southern system expansion project.
Dated Feb. 27, the notice formally opened the scoping process implemented by FERC to gather public input and identify the concerns to address in completing an environmental assessment for the project.
The energy regulatory commission will utilize the assessment in determining whether to authorize Questar's expansion project. The scoping period will close April 7.
In Utah, the natural gas company's proposed expansion includes:
Installing 18.4 miles of 24-inch pipeline near Price
Approximately nine miles of the natural gas transmission expansion project would loop the company's existing main line.
The remaining nine miles would follow existing utility rights of way.
Constructing a new compressor station in Duchesne County.
Building a new compressor station in Utah County.
Modifying a compressor station in Carbon County.
Modifications would occur within fenced yards at the company's existing Oak Spring facility.
The proposed pipeline project also includes modifying a natural gas compressor station in Rio Blanco County, Colorado.
The energy regulatory commission will act as the lead federal agency in ensuring that Questar's southern system expansion project complies with the regulations established by the National Environmental Policy Act.
FERC will decide whether a certificate of public convenience and necessity should be issued for the project, explained the regulatory commission.
The United Bureau of Land Management will determine whether to issue a right of way grant for the portions of the expansion crossing public property under the federal jurisdiction.
FERC certification conveys the right of eminent domain for securing the property easements required to complete approved projects, indicated the federal agency.
Therefore, companies receiving regulatory commission approval can initiate property condemnation proceedings in accordance with state law in the event easement negotiations fail to produce mutually acceptable agreements.
FERC developed the NEPA pre-filing process as a mechanism to allow the public to participate in addressing the issues before applications are filed with the regulatory commission.
Pursuant to NEPA, the regulatory commission will conduct an independent analysis to determine the issues to be addressed in the environmental assessment on Questar's expansion proposal.
FERC's primary scoping objective focuses on identifying important environmental issues, reasonable alternatives and measures to avoid or lessen negative impacts.
Carbon County agencies and interested citizens should send one original and two copies of comment letters to: Magalie R. Salas, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Room 1A, Washington, DC 20426.
Residents should direct one copy to the attention of gas branch 3, DG2E.
All originals and copies of comments should be labeled with reference docket number PF04-6-000.
Input on Questar's proposed pipeline expansion project may also be filed electronically at http://www.ferc.gov.
All comments and questions received during the scoping process will be considered in the environmental analysis of the pipeline expansion proposal, emphasized the federal agency.
In addition to the FERC certificate and BLM right of way grant, Questar must obtain permits and approvals from several regulatory and land management agencies.
When Questar applies for authorization to construct the proposed pipeline, the energy regulatory commission will publish the notice in the Federal Register and establish an intervention deadline.
Petitions to intervene will not be accepted during the scoping process, concluded the federal agency.

The Orange County tax collector says he will offer his employees in a domestic partnership a stipend to offset higher federal taxes they pay because they can't legally marry.
If same-sex couples add an unmarried spouse to their health benefits, the cost the company pays is taxed--meaning the same-sex couples end up paying more than straight couples.
Orange County Tax Collector Scott Randolph's stipend will be between $350 to $1,300 per year to offset the expense. The stipend will cost the tax collector office $10,000 per year.
"Just like the 278 companies that signed on to the recent amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court opposing the Defense of Marriage Act, I believe that 'workplace benefits enhance the employer/employee relationship, which in turn is a key to institutional success,'" said Orange County Constitutional Tax Collector Scott Randolph, citing the brief. "Until federally elected officials change the law, this stipend will help minimize the discriminatory impact that the federal tax code imposes on recognized same sex couples."
Randolph says probably 10 to 15 employees will qualify. The stipend will not be considered salary and will not be included for retirement purposes.
