Today is an important day in American history. On Dec. 15, 1791, the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution (known as the Bill of Rights) came into effect through the process of ratification by the States.
Most people have their own view of what the purpose and effect of the Bill of Rights was supposed to be. Some think it authorizes Washington to enforce a nationwide free speech zone. Others think it requires the Feds to protect the right to keep and bear arms in every nook and cranny in the country. And others think that there must be a nationwide separation of church and state in every State, county, city and town.
To those of you who believe that Federally run education in this country has destroyed public knowledge of the Founders' Constitution, my next comment is no shocker: All of these people are wrong. According to the Founders, that is.
The Basics
First, we have to understand why we even have a Constitution and, thus, a Bill of Rights.
The entire founding generation toiled under the tyranny of the king of England, a king who had virtually no limits on his power. He could make rules as he went, change them on a whim and change them back. He could seize your property, your labor or your life — and you could do almost nothing about it.
Because of this, the Constitution was written to spell out the limited powers delegated to the Federal government. And it was clearly understood that this government had only the powers that were delegated to it in the Constitution.
The original Constitution contained no Bill of Rights. Many of the Framers felt it wasn't necessary, since the Constitution clearly enumerated the few powers delegated to the Federal government. They thought any further restrictions would be redundant.
However, some of them thought there could be misunderstandings. So a Bill of Rights was proposed, and some States ratified the Constitution only on condition that those amendments would be added, which happened a few years later.
A Preamble?
Adding a preamble to a legal document was common practice at the time. It could identify the parties, list important facts and explain the purpose of the document.
Many people are unaware that, like the main body of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights had a preamble explaining its purpose.
What was the purpose? There's no better way to answer that question than in the words of the Founders themselves in the preamble to the Bill of Rights:
The Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added…
Rob Natelson, in his book The Original Constitution explains what this means:
Thus, some of the proposed amendments were "declaratory…clauses" (that is, rules of construction) designed to "prevent misconstruction" of the Constitution by explaining how the instrument should be interpreted. The rest were "restrictive clauses" to prevent "abuse" of federal powers by creating external limitations curtailing those powers. [emphasis added]
The important message here is that the Bill of Rights doesn't apply to you, me or any other person. It applies to the Federal government.
Not The States? No Way!
Maybe it's because most people weren't taught that a Preamble to the Bill of Rights existed — or maybe because they confuse the word "Constitutional" with the word "good" — but it's quite rare to find someone who doesn't disagree with the preamble to the Bill of Rights.
Many opponents claim things like:
- "The 1st Amendment is the only one that mentions just Congress, so the rest apply to everyone and not just Congress."
- "The States agreed to the Bill of Rights and, combined with the Supremacy clause, that means the States can't violate those parts of the Constitution."
While there are others, these are some of the most prominent reasons people give for essentially disagreeing with the Founders themselves on the Bill of Rights.
Each could use a full discussion on their own, but the important points are:
- The 1st Amendment was the only Amendment which specifically prohibited the making of a law. When the Founders wrote the word "law" in the 1st Amendment, they meant it. And Congress was the only branch of government that was supposed to make law. Today, we have an executive branch that makes law through executive order and a judicial branch that legislates from the bench. At the time of the founding, it would have been absurd to include either of those branches in an Amendment preventing the making of law. That's a big part of why the 1st Amendment starts with "Congress shall make no law."
- Claiming that because the States ratified the Bill of Rights, each clause applies to the States, too, is just bad logic. Think of it like this. You and 12 business partners own an apartment complex. You hire a person to manage the property and give him some rules about how you want your property run. He follows your rules pretty closely, but eventually he starts showing up at the homes of all 13 of you. He starts demanding that each of you follow the rules for the apartment building that you gave him — in your own homes!
Absurd? Absolutely. Rules created by employers for their employee don't necessarily apply to the employers, too. In the case of the Bill of Rights, in the Preamble the employers (the States) told the employee (the Federal government) that it would have new rules that applied just to it.
And if that twisted logic weren't enough, James Madison hammered it home in his famous speech introducing the Bill of Rights. In it, Madison proposed that the Bill of Rights have three distinct restrictions on the States.
He said: "No state shall violate the equal rights of conscience, or the freedom of the press, or the trial by jury in criminal cases."
What happened? Congress considered Madison's proposal to have some of these new restrictions apply to the States, but rejected it.
Federal Restrictions
What was the end result? The body of the Constitution primarily tells the Federal government what it is allowed to do. The Bill of Rights tells the Federal government what it is not allowed to do, such as the following non-exhaustive examples:
- Make no law abridging freedom of speech, press, religion or assembly.
- Do not infringe on the right to keep and bear arms.
- Do not "quarter" soldiers in peacetime.
- Do not conduct unreasonable searches and seizures, and don't issue warrants without probable cause.
- Do not force people to testify against themselves.
- Do not deny a speedy trial to a person accused of a crime.
- Do not deny trial by jury to an accused person.
- Do not impose excessive bail.
- Don't assume that this is an exhaustive list of rights. Just because some are listed doesn't mean the people don't have others.
- Don't exercise any power not delegated in this Constitution.
The Lesson
What's the big message behind all this?
Centralization of power is always bad, even when it appears to have a good short-term result. Every time you approve of the Federal government taking on new power for things you approve of, you authorize your opponents to do the same for things you oppose.
That's why every person who advocates using the Federal government to make abortion illegal nationwide also authorizes the other side to make abortion legal nationwide when it is in power. Get that, Rick Santorum?
And every person who advocates forcing every State to legalize marijuana also authorizes the opposition to ban it in the entire country when it is in power.
The same principle can be applied to just about every issue.
The system we have today puts almost all decisions about the fate of your liberty into the hands of nine unelected, unaccountable, politically connected lawyers. That's not a good place for any society to be.
How do we fix this mess? The first step is to stop going to the Federal government to fix problems that are actually caused by the Federal government itself (most are!). Doing so is not just an absurd idea, it has led us to the place we are in today.
Moving forward to the principle behind the Bill of Rights (decentralization of power) will bring you a huge step closer to liberty. It's an idea whose time has come.

It's imperative that radiologists proactively find ways to keep radiation dose to a minimum, and healthcare IT can help, according to Dr. James H. Thrall, who spoke on the topic this week at the New York Medical Imaging Informatics Symposium.
Thrall: Healthcare IT can help rads tackle radiation exposure
Thrall, radiologist-in-chief at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and professor of radiology at Harvard Medical School, described five ways that information technology can be used to reduce dose exposure to patients. At the same time, healthcare IT can help increase patient safety; reduce unnecessary workload for radiologists, technologists, and administrative and support staff; reduce expenditures for inappropriate exams; support better "best practice" radiology; and assist clinical decision-making by referring physicians.

Bethel School District voters to decide bond fate
EUGENE, Ore. -- Brooke Cottle is a chairman on the bond support group, Friends of Bethel Schools. Like many other Eugene residents, the proud parent has high hopes for the November's election.
They hope to pass a bond that Bethel school officials say could build 2 new campuses, update classrooms, beef up security systems and more--and not raise taxes.
KVAL's Tom Adams caught up with Cottle while walking around the outdated grounds of Clear Lake Elementary.
"These books have been around for decades," joked Cottle, leaving through a history book used in one of the classrooms. "Bill Clinton still listed as president."
Next door at Shasta Middle School, students are equipped with 36 computer work stations, 22 of which don't work. Shasta principal Greg James said that the machines can only handle web browsing and word processing at best.
Bethel District officials said that the solution to update the struggling Bethel Schools is on the November ballot, a $49.5-million bond issue. It would replace old computers, carpets, windows and more.
If passed, the bond would replace an old bond that is running out. Bethel District spokesman Pat McGillivray explains the school board didn't want to put any more financial strain on people.
"So that's why they created this bond measure ... so it wouldn't increase anyone's current tax rate." said McGillivray.
The big ticket item in the bond is to replace a couple of aging elementary schools. Fairfield and Malabon Elementary Schools were built in the 1950's. Officials said that the buildings had a life-expectancy of 30 years.
"This is the main water line going into Fairfield," explained McGillivray, pointing to a piece of totally rusted out water pipe from one of the schools.
The Malabon and Fairfield replacement project is slated to cost a combined $26-million, just over half of the bond measure.
The proposed bond issue would also fix a big security issue. Right now if there's a lock-down at a Bethel campus, teachers have to step outside their classroom to lock doors.
"The best thing would be to lock straight from the inside of the room, so that no one has to expose himself to the outside," said Principal James.
Cottle hopes in the end, voters see the Bethel bond not as a burden but an opportunity.
"So we can go to our taxpayers and say if you're just willing to continue your investment in our Bethel schools, then we can do some really incredible things," said Cottle.

CANTON St. Lawrence Universitys Gunnison Memorial Chapel likely will remain closed until spring as the college repairs the damage from the fire that destroyed the buildings spire Oct. 6.
The college is still assessing the damage, nearly two weeks after the fire. Most of the spire collapsed safely about 24 hours after the fire, but portions of the copper structure have yet to be removed.
A crane is expected to arrive early this week to remove whats left of the steeple.
The college has hired specialists to take a look at water and smoke damage to the chapels organ and chimes, along with fire cleanup experts for a full assessment of what should happen next.
Were really going to wait and see, when the experts get here, what really needs to be done, college spokesman Ryan P. Deuel said.
College officials said they hope the chapel will be usable by February or March, with repairs complete by the end of the spring semester. They hope much of the original damaged copper steeple, including the rooster weather vane, can be repaired or recycled. The chapel was built in 1926.
I think that they really want to find a company that can take a look at the copper, see what can be restored, reused, and see what would have to be repaired, Mr. Deuel said.
Assessors from Travelers Insurance have completed their look at the damage, but have yet to finalize their report. Insurance is expected to cover most of the bill, but the college wont know how much it owes until the insurance report is complete.
A new roof for the chapel and a temporary cap for the steeple are among the top construction priorities.
Meanwhile, the university is looking for a location for its annual candlelight service in December.

Wellington's planning and zoning commission met last Wednesday night to disucss city business.
The first item on the agenda was a request for a business license by Arnold Torres and Vern Stewart, who represented Hauhinco Trading.
The company is a hydro pump and valve company that services the mining industry.
The company has plans to move into the old Housekeeper building located near the Walkers truck stop at 1885 East Main Street in Wellington.
The planning board discussed the proposal, noting that the area is already zoned highway commercial.
After a brief discussion, the board approved the action and told Torres to present the business plans to the Wellington council at the city's next meeting for final approval.
The next item of business was a request for a kennel permit from Jack Greenemeir of 360 West Highway Drive.
After discussing the issue, the board told Greenemeir that the area was zoned residential commercial and a kennel permit could not be issued in the area.
Greenemeir agreed to remove two of his four dogs from his residence to comply with the city regulations.
Rhonda Olson and Amber Baker then asked the planning and zoning board for a business license to start a crafts and antique store at 75 East Main in Wellington.
The planning board noted that the area in question is properly zoned for such an enterprise and the members approved the action.
The petitioners were told to present their business plans to the city council for final approval.
The last item of business on the planning and zoning board agenda was from Paul Mullins, who represented property owner Max Conder.
The request was for permission to construct a 30 by 40 foot steel building at 440 West Main in Wellington.
The building is to be used as a residential garage, according to Conder's representative.
Mullins presented the board with drawings and plans for the building.
After checking to make sure the area was zoned R-17 residential, the board approved the action pending final approval by the city council.
The meeting was then adjourned.

CANTON The operator of the Canton Flea Market is being evicted by the University Plazas new owner for failing to pay his July rent.
On Friday, several vendors, many of them upset, were hauling their merchandise and shelving out of the Route 11 store, which also houses Fashion Craze discount clothing store.
Some moved their sales racks out to the sidewalks and sold directly to customers. The store was closed to customers.
Several vendors said the flea markets owner, Frank E. Monnett, informed them he doesnt have the money to reimburse them for their July sales.
Domita L. Hogle, formerly of Colton, displayed an invoice showing that Mr. Monnett owes her $1,791.69 for her July sales.
He has our money, and he didnt pay his rent bill, Ms. Hogle said. Its not fair. We put all this money and work into this.
Mr. Monnett said he mailed the $6,000 rent check but then put a stop-payment on it because the plazas new owner, David C. Muraco, president of Empire Property Management, Dewitt, made it clear he doesnt want to keep a flea market in the plaza.
However, Mr. Muraco said he had no intention of immediately closing the flea market but decided to evict Mr. Monnett, effective Aug. 3, because he put the stop-payment on the rent check. He said he is allowing interested vendors to remain in the space.
Im going to try to work with people. Im meeting with several of the vendors on Monday, Mr. Muraco said. Im confident that the market will stay open. I dont want the vendors to leave there, but I want him Mr. Monnett out.
Hes already got people ready to move in here, Mr. Monnett said, noting that a dollar store and a bread store are possibilities.
Mr. Monnett would not discuss why he cant pay his vendors for their July sales.
Thats a personal issue were working out together, he said as he sat on a bench outside the store Friday afternoon.
Vendors were asked by Mr. Monnett to sign promissory notes stating that he would pay them within six months, but not all vendors were willing to sign the agreement.
I wouldnt accept it. Im not signing it, Ms. Hogle said.
Mr. Monnett held a meeting Thursday evening with vendors to advise them he was being evicted in 10 days and couldnt pay them for their July sales.
Two state police officers were at the scene for awhile, but took no action.
This is a civil matter, not a criminal matter, said State Trooper Robert Larabee.
Vendor Rebecca A. Taberski said she set up a booth last fall and was doing fairly well.
Its just unfortunate. I was doing OK, but some of these vendors get paid big bucks, she said.
Jackie Lamora, a vendor from Norwood, said she just started renting space about a month ago and built new shelving to hold her merchandise.
On Friday, she was packing up furniture and other items into a red pickup truck in front of the store.
I was very surpised. I lost my $150 deposit and about $300 worth of merchandise, she said.
Chantel L. Wood and her boyfriend, Jeffrey R. Rayburn, said theyre disappointed the flea market may close because they shop there often for DVDs, clothes and other items.
Its like a treasure hunt, Mr. Rayburn said. You never know what youll find.
The market opened in January 2012 and had nearly 100 vendors who rented booth space from Mr. Monnett.
University Plazas former owner, Apollo, N.Y., sold the plaza in June to New Venture Assets LLC, Dewitt, for $2.1 million. Mr. Muraco is owner of Empire Property Management and New Venture Assets.

TURIN The South Lewis Central School District Board of Education unanimously passed a resolution Tuesday evening to reinstate suspended music teacher Arthur J. McCall.
The board, according to the resolution, does hereby terminate the paid administrative leave and reinstates Arthur McCall to active duty effective Monday, January 28, 2013.
In September, Mr. McCall, 45, was placed on administrative leave with pay following allegations of the forcible touching of two males, Jarrod A. Hurley, 26, and Douglas M. Tuttle, 17, at his home at 5326 Dayan St., Lowville.
The case was adjourned in contemplation of dismissal Dec. 11, despite the objection of Mr. Tuttle.
Although records have been sealed on the case, the district attorneys office said there has been no activity since the December adjournment in contemplation of dismissal and the case would be placed on the court calendar at the courts discretion.

The main event for high school track and field athletes was held May 10-11 at BYU. The meet was for the state championships and was held under an overcast with rain off and on throughout the day.
The weather did not dampen the mood for the Carbon High Dinos who fared quite well against 3A teams from across the state.
Scott Terry led the Carbon boys team by finishing sixth in the 3200 meter run with a time of 9:56.37. Terry then moved on to finish in fifth place in the 1600 meter run with a time of 4:35.07.
Terry who was on top of his game at the state meet also finished in fifth place in the 800 meter run with a time of 2:00.65. Terry's races were all close, especially for the third to eighth place finishes. In fact, only hundreds of a second separated third to eighth place in Terry's events.
Cody Butler stepped up his performance in the 3200 meter run a couple of notches to be a strong competitor in the event. Butler worked hard and stayed with the pack. The strong showing proved successful with Butler finishing in fifth place in the event with a time of 9:55.70. Butler was also the only boy from Carbon to receive all-state academic honors in track and field.
Also in the 3200 meter run, Isaac Goodrich ran a personal best time at the state event with a time of 10:22.80, landing him a twelfth place finish.
In the boys 800 meter run, Seth Marsing ran with Terry and the rest of the pack until the final 100 meters. At this point, Marsing found himself completing the race in ninth place with a time of 2:03.45.
Marsing also came back to help the medley relay team pace eighth by running another 800 meters. Then, for his final run, Marsing anchored the 4x400 meter relay team to a sixth place finish in the finals. The remainder of the medley team consisted of T.J. Potts, Matt Hough, and Joe Palmer while the 4x400 team consisted of Terry, Palmer, Butler, and Marsing.
To round out the boys events, Lee Prettyman finished the medal race with a sixth place finish in the javelin with a toss of 153 feet.
The girls also had a strong performance at the state meet. The team was lead by Melanie Madsen who ran a personal best time of 11:54.80 in the 3200 meter run and a 5:37 in the 1600 meter event. Madsen placed ninth in both races with the girls in fourth through ninth places finishing only seconds apart.
Alicia Torres and Jessica Serfustini placed fifth and sixth in the girls high jump event.
Becky Unsworth broke into the medal round by throwing the discus 104 feet, while Emily Rice placed sixth in the javelin. Both girls have been quite competitive this year, as well as Serfustini and Torres in the high jump competition.
Brittany Polastro was the final point-getter in the girls team. Polastro placed fifth in the shot put with a toss of 32 feet, seven inches.
The boys team finished in twelfth place and the girls team in thirteenth place out of 23 teams in the 3A division. The strong finish served as the final successful meet for this years Dino track and field team who have out done themselves this season. The Carbon coaches are proud for the accomplishments the team has made this year and look forward to next season which should be just as good for the strong team.

|ASU to Conduct Football Feasibility Study
|Written by Mike Flynn
|Friday, 01 October 2010 12:42
Appalachian State University athletics will conduct a feasibility study to evaluate its football program's position in NCAA Division I, director of athletics Charlie Cobb announced on Thursday.The goal of the study is to evaluate Appalachian's options with regards to the changing Division I landscape. ASU currently competes as a member of the Southern Conference in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly known as Division I-AA).
ASU's Board of Trustees approved the feasibility study last week. Appalachian athletics has selected the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) to conduct the independent study and a private donation will cover its cost. A completion of the study and an internal analysis of its findings will likely take approximately 9-12 months.
"With the changing Division I landscape and the unprecedented success that our football program has enjoyed on and off the field in recent years, the time is right to analyze all of our options as a Division I athletics department and football program," Cobb said. "This study is a broad, campus-wide analysis to identify what our options are as a University, athletics department and football program going forward. It does not take away one bit of focus from our football program's goal of winning a sixth-straight Southern Conference championship and competing for a fourth national title in six years."
Appalachian conducted a feasibility study to explore a move to what was then known as Division I-A (now known as the Division I Football Bowl Subdivision) in 1998 and it was ultimately determined to remain as a member of Division I-AA. However, in light of recent changes in the Division I ranks, Appalachian is joining fellow SoCon member Georgia Southern and FCS power Montana as athletics departments that are in the midst of or have recently completed football feasibility studies.
Appalachian's success on and off the field is unprecedented for an FCS program. The Mountaineers won NCAA Division I national championships in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and has won five-consecutive SoCon titles while leading FCS in regular-season home attendance each of the past three years. Through two home games this season, ASU is once again tops in FCS attendance with an average of 28,963 fans at 21,650-seat Kidd Brewer Stadium.
Off the field, the football program's most recent Academic Progress Rate score of 970 fell just shy of earning an NCAA Public Recognition Award, which recognizes programs that rank among the nation's top 10 percent in terms of APR scores.

When the time came for Trevor Vasey to select a four-year college that would satisfy his academic needs and quarterback profile, he turned to a valuable resource – his father Todd.
To sift through the recruiting waters with the assistance of a parent who just happens to coach college football, that's the ace in the hole Trevor – a 2011 St. Raphael graduate and Cumberland native – carried in his back pocket. As the head man at Dean College, the onus falls on Todd Vasey to place his players in a position to realize that there are options available upon completing their stay at the Franklin, Mass. junior college. Yet when one of those players happens to be your own flesh and blood, lets just say there's a heartfelt interest in making sure the son is well situated.
The Todd and Trevor Vasey dynamic at Dean was a yearlong partnership that was cherished by both parties and culminated with the ripest of rewards. A week before Christmas, Trevor inked a National Letter of Intent that confirmed his scholarship to Elon University, based in North Carolina. Elon is affiliated with the Southern Conference and competes in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision.
Having successfully completed his academic requirements at Dean, Trevor Vasey has already settled into life on Elon's campus. Presently he's taking one class in conjunction with his new school's winter intersession – Trevor plans to major in communications – while rounding out his days working out with his Phoenix teammates. Todd's wife, Kelly, had the honor of moving her son into his dorm room, a course of action specifically designed to allow Mrs. Vasey to see where Trevor would be calling home during his three remaining seasons of collegiate eligibility.
Truth is, Todd Vasey was with Trevor every step of the way. Not only was the father afforded the luxury of coaching his offspring at Dean, but upon completion of the Bulldogs' 2012 season, the pair went on three official recruiting visits – Elon, Furman (S.C.) University and Southeastern Louisiana (Trevor was also offered visits to URI and the University of North Dakota).
Naturally, Trevor expressed nothing but gratitude when asked about having a dad with a firm understanding of how the recruiting process shakes down. "My father was definitely a big help guiding me through."
From Todd's vantage point, his main concern while Trevor quarterbacked the Dean offense was making sure not to provide any semblance of preferential treatment. When Trevor enrolled at Dean last January following a successful post-graduate stay at Virginia's Hargrave Military Academy – the younger Vasey had the luxury of playing with current Clemson defensive end Kevin Dodd while throwing to Trey Metoyer, a wideout now at Oklahoma – Todd explained that they would do the football thing at Dean and act like father and son away from the gridiron.
"I have good friends who have coached their sons and relatives tell me that it's the hardest thing you have to do – to be as fair as you can to both him and the team," explained Todd Vasey, a former grid mentor at St. Raphael. "In many cases, you have to hold him to a higher standard and make sure he's the better player at the position. If he makes a mistake, though, he has to be held accountable and lose playing time."
Trevor added, "You've got to watch what you do a lot more because you're the coach's son. If (your teammates) feel that you're getting special treatment, that won't be good. That's why I had to make sure I was like everyone else."
Due to his busy schedule, Todd often missed seeing Trevor compete at St. Raphael. Prior to this past fall, the only time Mr. Vasey coached his son was in a youth basketball setting at the Cumberland-Lincoln Boys and Girls Club.
"For me, coaching Trevor [at Dean] was a win-win," he stated. "I'm grateful and appreciative of the year we had together."
Long before Trevor even thought about committing to Elon, Todd was handling him not as his son, but as a promising football player who needed to augment his powerful right arm with the necessary strength needed in order to hold up to the rigors of upper echelon college football. Upon graduating from Saints – he considered offers from Bryant and Sacred Heart – a 6-foot-6 Trevor Vasey tipped the scales at 190 pounds. Fast-forward 18 months, where a "skinny" Trevor has been replaced with a more filled-out version, one that now checks in at 228 pounds strong.
"This was the first time he wasn't playing multiple sports, allowing him to be able to get into the weight room and concentrate on getting his body in a football-specific mode," said Todd Vasey, referencing his son's two-sport status at SRA (Trevor also played basketball and was a key cog in the Saints' 2011 state championship). "He was lifting four times a week, which transformed his body into something that was more desirable by the bigger schools."
While Trevor's stock increased while at Hargrave, he felt he needed to cross one more frontier before arriving at a place that he felt would catch the fancy of big-time recruiters. He lived on Dean's campus and was the only quarterback on the Bulldogs' depth chart. He did nothing to relinquish the job, tossing 12 touchdowns while throwing for nearly 1,900 yards for his father's-led squad. For his efforts, Trevor Vasey collected first-team all-league honors and was named the Northeast Football Conference's co-Offensive Player of the Year.
"I was way more recruited at Dean than I was in the past," Trevor stated, adding that his dad was instrumental in helping him decipher coverage schemes much sooner than he had previously.
On why he ultimately selected Elon University, Trevor Vasey noted that he's familiar with head coach Jason Swepson, who hails from Seekonk, along with offensive coordinator Chris Pincince, a Woonsocket native who previously held a similar post at URI. The opportunity to seize the starting job as a sophomore is also on the table as the Phoenix must replace two-time Southern Conference passing leader Thomas Wilson (a senior, Wilson is set to graduate come spring).
Sounding like a football coach with a dash of fatherly support mixed in, Todd Vasey said, "Trevor's been promised nothing, but he'll work hard for whatever opportunity he gets. With him down there now, he'll have a chance to compete (during spring practice), learn the system and show the coaches what he can do before they sort it out from there."
Putting the coach speak to the side, Todd Vasey, the father, reflected on the irreplaceable journey he took with son Trevor while the two worked side-by-side at Dean College. "He paid his dues and was willing to make the sacrifices, which makes it that much more rewarding now that he's gotten his opportunity."
The Under Armour workout shirt that had "Harvard" sprawled across his chest painted a rosy red picture of where Davon Robertson is heading to play college football. A former standout tight end/defensive end at St. Raphael, Robertson officially learned he was Cambridge-bound last month shortly after touring the campus.
Even before graduating from SRA last June, Robertson was dead-set on suiting up for Harvard. While the Ivy League school was impressed with his football abilities, Robertson needed to improve his SAT scores to the point that admitting him wouldn't be an issue. Armed with determination, Robertson is spending the 2012-13 academic year at New Hampshire's Philips Exeter Academy.
Not only did he play a prominent role in the prep school posting an undefeated regular season before falling in the championship game, Robertson bumped up his board scores to meet Harvard's strict admission standards. Now 6-foot-4 and 245 pounds, Robertson said last week while working out at SRA's Alumni Hall that he isn't sure if he'll line up at tight end or defensive end at Harvard, though he feels his best avenue to contribute immediately as a freshman is via special teams.
EXTRA POINTS: A few recruiting tidbits regarding local high school standouts. First, North Smithfield High senior linebacker Ryan Masnyk has received interest from Bryant, URI, Central Connecticut and Elon. A four-time all-division selection, the 6-foot-2 Masnyk is scheduled to visit Division II Assumption College relatively soon. … At Lincoln High, senior linebacker Osel-lie Saine has garnered curiosity from URI and UMass Amherst in addition to several prep schools. … St. Raphael senior offensive lineman Jason Colon is looking at a lot of Division II and III schools, according to his head coach, Mike Sassi. … Speaking of Sassi, he is scheduled to receive induction into the R.I. High School Football Coaches Association Hall of Fame next Wednesday, Jan. 16.

By JOHN SERFUSTINISun Advocate associate editor
Helper City has adopted a policy that disallows smoking on public property within 25 feet of any facility where children may be playing.
The policy - which is not the same as an ordinance - was written in a resolution passed unanimously by the city council Thursday. The reason, as stated in the document, is that "the Helper City Council desires to lead by example in protecting adults and youth from being subjected to the effects of second hand smoke."
Specifically, people who are smoking are not allowed near "playgrounds, play structures, bleachers, sports fields, ball diamonds, basketball courts, tennis or volleyball courts, concession stands, skateboard areas, BMX areas and walking pathways for the same."
People who don't comply can be ejected from these areas.
However, since it is a policy and not a law, the city won't have to station police officers at any of these venues to enforce compliance. The sense of the council in previous discussions was that smokers will generally comply if they know where they can and cannot light up. Signs will advise of designated non-smoking areas.
Those who refuse to leave when told by other people could be considered to be "creating a disturbance," Police Chief Trent Anderson told the council at last month's meeting, and there is an ordinance against that.
The council decided to take action on the matter after anti-tobacco activist Stacey Basinger appeared before the council this summer with a long list of health hazards posed by second hand smoke. In addition to those hazards, smoking in or around the stands runs contrary to the rules that little league - and major league - teams set for players, she added.
Mayor Dean Armstrong had advised the council its earlier sessions that an ordinance was not necessary and could be counter-productive for other areas of law enforcement. Since police could not be expected to abandon other responsibilities to enforce such a law, it would amount to having a law on the books that would be nearly meaningless. That could dilute the force of law for other ordinances, Armstrong cautioned.

FOUND by Brian Giwojna in Decatur, Georgia
This was found inside a book in a book store. I don't remember which book it was specifically, but it was a very old. This seems to be a menu someone who chose their meal from. It could be from a hospital maybe? The person, who I guess can go by the name of Chaunell, chose the cheddar cheese squares, buttered noodles, toast and pureed peaches. I like how they underlined milk and added in Sanka.

Both the New York Daily News and the NY Post ran Travis d'Arnaud stories this morning with quotes from d'Arnaud and his high school coach.
The Daily News begins with a call from David Wright to d'Arnaud to welcome him to the Mets organization. The Post focuses on his desire to make the Mets out of spring training.
Again, the issue with d'Arnaud breaking camp with the Mets is that it would cost the Mets a year of control – not arbitration, but control – if he started the season in the bigs. Players become free agents after their sixth season. If he were to break camp with the Mets, and spend the entire 2013 season in the big leagues, and every year thereafter, he would be under the Mets control for 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 and likely be a super-two with four years of arbitration along the way. Were he to spend the first month or so in the minors, 2013 would not count as a full year of service time, and he would not be free agent eligible until after 2019. This stuff matters.

The 9 On Your Side Pit Bull Coverage Manifesto
On March 7 these two pit bulls put an 89 year old Tucson woman in the hospital.
Notes by: Forrest Carr, KGUN9 News Director
The latest vicious dog attack in Tucson, which put an 89 year old woman in the hospital, once again has our KGUN9 Facebook page and the comments section of KGUN9.com jumping. By now, the reaction every time a pit bull attack makes the news on KGUN9-TV has become quite predictable, and the latest postings do not disappoint. But we're also seeing something new.
Based on coverage of past attacks, here is the predictable part of the reaction:
1. "There is no problem!": Pit bull advocates begin posting pictures of their cute, cuddly pit bulls doing cute, cuddly things (wearing sunglasses and kerchiefs, posing with teddy bears, snuggling up with children and so on), and demanding to know why KGUN9 wants to kill their perfectly harmless pets.
2. "It's the owner!": Pit bull advocates point out, often in all caps, words to the effect of, "IT'S NOT THE DOG!!!!! IT'S THE OWNER!!!!!" There have been so many postings of this nature over past months that it has led to a worldwide shortage of capital letters and exclamation points.
3. "It's all a media conspiracy!": Posters attack KGUN9 with allegations of KGUN9 bias, claiming that KGUN9 is backing a ban on pit bulls, hates pets, and so on. Many of them demand to know why KGUN9 doesn't run stories about other dogs that bite, particularly Chihuahuas. Others claim we are removing viewer comments favoring pit bulls from our web site and Facebook page.
4. "The dog is the victim!": Postings thus far from pit bull advocates typically express concern only for the attacking dog or for pit bulls in general. If these posters have any concern for the human victim, many of them are keeping it to themselves. But they do make it clear that they are outraged by all the pit bull slander that's going around in the media and on KGUN9 in particular.
Pit bull partisans have plastered our web sites with so many comments of this type in reaction to any and every story mentioning the words "pit bull" that KGUN9 has become Tucson's Official Pit Bull Station. We are not, however, thinking of changing our call letters to KPIT as one wag helpfully suggested.
We're seeing those same predictable postings now as well. You've seen then before, can see them now, and can also read about them in past Viewers' Voice columns.
But in addition, something else is starting to happen that we haven't seen previously to such a great degree. Now, those who are fed up with vicious dog attacks and want to see something done about the issue are speaking up loudly and clearly in numbers we haven't seen before. Perhaps even more remarkably, even some avowed pit bull fans and owners now seem open to some kind of regulatory action.
Here is a sample of this latest flavor of comment:
Donna Alvarado (via Facebook): "Everyone loses. This precious lady suffers, the dog owner grieves his dogs, and the dogs are killed. ALL dogs, regardless of breed, should be trained and controlled. All of this pain and suffering could have been prevented. Onwers need to be responsible for their dogs."
Jewel Jade (via Facebook): "Now is your chance, law makers (especially Mr. Mayor) to show that you are caring, intelligent people with backbones that can stand up and say, 'Enough is enough! No more attacks, no more maulings, no more deaths, no more PIT BULLS!' Don't you all think it's time to stop sitting on your butts and start doing something to protect the GOOD citizens of this city?! Oh, I bet if it were your child, there'd be a law in place quickly to get these dangerous mauling machines off of our city's streets! Right?! Well, the next time, it just might be. These dogs need, at the very least, very heavy regulation."
Edward Dunham (via Facebook): "Time for a city wide ordinance. 'If your dog attacks and send a person to the hospital you serve 90 days in jail.' Tired of all these dogs attacking in town."
Angy Anderson (via Facebook): "I absolutely agree! Great idea! Maybe if we all say it enough, somebody will finally listen and start putting out punishments on these owners, and stop making ALL of us pit owners & pits look bad!"
Sandie A Boscia (via Facebook): "I think it should be longer and I think it should be prison.... It should be considered a felony when a dog any dog mauls someone especially children and the elderly."
Peggy Shanks (via Facebook): "Pit bulls run the streets where I live. I'm afraid for my kids, and I call the dog pound and they do nothing."
Kathy Kamper (via Facebook): "My neighbor's pit can jump over their concrete fence and she did just that, and jumped ours and took our baby girl poodle off back to her yard. The [other] neighbors moved because the dog walked the concrete fence all the time and she was fearful for her two children. I would love to see an educational process and special licensing process for anyone to own one."
bluedog2 (via KGUN9.com, in response to a comment defending the dogs' owner in the most recent attack): "I'm sure the pit bull owner's 'caring and concerned demeanor' is of great value to this poor woman, the victim of 'the worst dog attack that he had ever seen' (responding paramedic) as she suffers on her hospital bed."
As noted, there are still plenty of comments of the other variety from pit bull defenders. But it's clear that despite the best efforts of some to suppress it, this issue has not gone away.
Here is what you can expect from 9 On Your Side going forward.
1. KGUN9 will continue to cover issues involving vicious dogs -- any breed, any newsworthy local incident that comes to our attention.
2. KGUN9 will continue our policy of not banning negative comments on our Facebook page and on KGUN9.com. Yes, this means you can attack KGUN9 on our own page and get away with it. Sometimes we will respond directly, other times we'll respond via Viewers' Voice postings like this one. We think this policy of allowing and responding to public criticism posted on our own websites may be unique to KGUN9. But such is our respect for viewers that we are interested in what you have to say, and we want you to come to our site and our Facebook page to say it -- even if you think our coverage stinks, and even if we disagree with what you have to say. No one gets banned and no posts get deleted unless they cross the lines of civil conduct. Hopefully I don't have to spell out what I mean by "civil conduct," but if you are in doubt, drop me a note.
3. We will conduct ourselves via the principles set out in our Viewers' Bill of Rights. That means you can expect diversity of opinion. It means you can expect us to hold the powerful accountable. It means you can expect us not to take sides. I get asked from time to time, "So what does 'On Your Side' mean, then, if you don't take sides?" And I hear from people who love to post and say, "KGUN9 is not on my side." Actually, the fact that we leave such posts standing proves my point. KGUN9 is on the side of people who have a point they'd like to make. Sometimes, people need help to be heard, and that's where we come in. We are on the side of people who want to be heard and want to get answers. We are not on the side of people trying to shout down or suppress someone else's viewpoint, regardless of the nature of that viewpoint.
4. People are getting hurt. 9 On Your Side is not going away on this issue until we have some sense from our community leaders and residents that this issue has been sufficiently explored and that the proper action -- if, indeed, any action appears to be indicated or warranted at this time -- has been taken.
I've issued a memo to the KGUN9 newsroom explaining some of these principles. One of the things in which we believe at 9 On Your Side is the idea of transparency in our editorial process. Therefore, I am publishing this memo for you to see. It is attached to this story as a related document, available on the upper left side of this page (beneath the photos). As you can see, we are listening to some of the criticisms put up by the pit bull crowd, but are determined not to let the heat we are getting from those critics deter us from our reporting.
We're doing all this because that is what we think the public at large deserves and wants. We invite you to let us know whether those beliefs are on track by continuing to comment on our coverage, which you can do here or on our Facebook page.

Generate qualified leads more cost effectively than through any other available marketing vehicle. Create virtual events, conferences, trade shows and seminars where attendees can control their entire learning experience: viewing keynote presentations, chatting with product experts and downloading key information.
Our clients are using the InterCall platform to:
Quest Software held two virtual events in the past year for demand generation. More than 1300 people registered for the live one-day event and attended seven different conference sessions including keynotes, product demonstrations and panel sessions. Quest Software calculated a cost per lead of about $23, an amazing accomplishment compared to traditional lead generation vehicles.
For one of its virtual events, Quest Software included partners like Microsoft and Unisys each of which had an exhibitor booth. They hosted several booths dedicated to different solution areas.
Orchestrate global launches—using your company and to the marketplace—within a single virtual environment. Encourage new product adoption by offering interactive product demonstrations, chat capabilities with sales engineers and secure downloads of new product collateral.
Our clients are using the InterCall platform to:
In the past, CA's launch of new products was a monumental effort. The company flew sales people to Islandia for training, traveled to 50+ cities for product seminars and rented premium space at trade shows. CA knew there had to be a better, more cost-effective way to launch their products globally.
The company decided to switch to a virtual launch strategy. They first used InterCall to launch the ArcServe and XOSoft products to internal marketing, sales and systems engineering teams to be sure everyone was well trained on the product features and capabilities.
A week later, CA launched these products in a one-day event to customers, promoting the new offerings through online technical demonstrations, complimentary partner booths and executive keynote sessions. They delivered the event simultaneously in English, Spanish, German and French.
Extend your mindshare and market share with your current customers by combining live or on-demand videos of interactive client panels with best practices discussions in the networking lounge.

Ariba has historically produced and participated in successful, live events to promote its global spend management system. The company designed its "Ariba LIVE 2009" to replicate their annual customer conference, hosting a two-day virtual event with over 40 conference sessions and 14 major sponsors. It attracted more than 1600 spend management professionals and exceeded all expectations.
This virtual component with InterCall complemented Ariba's physical world tour. Ariba is now exploring how to weave together more physical shows and their virtual environments in a compelling mix for customers.
Exchange ideas and gather candid feedback from your company's most loyal customers by using group chat and powerful attendee polling capabilities. Many of our customers are excited about leveraging our virtual environment to help reduce their companies' carbon footprints.

BlueLinx used InterCall to launch "PureBlue", a sustainability event. Based on the results—3000 people registered, more than 1500 attending and participants spending, on average, more than 60 minutes in the show—the program is now slated to be an annual event and an ongoing part of the BlueLinx marketing strategy.
The company knew that consolidating information on green products in the building industry had merit, but wanted to test it with key audiences. The two-day PureBlue event featured four conferences, 40 exhibitor booths and a comprehensive resource center. It was the initial test of a broader sustainability program for BlueLinx.
InterCall allows you to completely customize and brand your training environment. Have your audience learn in a conference center, on a university campus or create the look and feel of an exclusive retreat.
Within one virtual training environment you can train on as many topics as you like. Create separate curricula for on-boarding, new products and any other topic you choose.
Deliver your content using webcasts, videos, documents, pictures, slides and other options.
InterCall offers synchronous training complete with live Q&A, allowing trainers to field questions in real time. All training sessions are available on-demand.

Measure your participant progress with quizzes, polls and surveys. Utilize comprehensive reports to determine which participants separate themselves from their peers.
By using InterCall's virtual training platform, companies routinely lower their cost from over $2000 to below $100 per attendee. Polls have shown that the quality of training was maintained or increased by going virtual. Switching to InterCall has saved companies millions of dollars on training.

Video: WEB EXTRA: Collins Reacts to Poll
Video: WEB EXTRA: Hochul Reacts to Poll
Video: Exclusive Poll: Hochul vs. Collins Race A Dead Heat
BUFFALO, N.Y. - Just when you thought the Chris Collins - Kathy Hochul race for the 27th Congressional District seat couldn't get any closer, it has.
See the Complete Exclusive Poll
The latest exclusive poll by from Siena College, commissioned by WGRZ-TV and the Buffalo News, gives both Chris Collins and Kathy Hochul 47% of the vote, with 6% either undecided or not planning to vote. The poll of 633 likely voters in the district was conducted October 1-4, and has a margin of error of +/- 3.9%.
Hochul has gained two points since the first WGRZ-TV/Buffalo News poll came out in mid-August, while Collins number was unchanged. That poll was considered a statistical tie because the difference between the candidates fell within the margin or error.
When you track the two polls, the likeability of both candidates have gone down slightly since the campaign started to heat up around Labor Day. When voters were asked this week whether they had a favorable or unfavorable opinion of each candidate, Hochul was 47% favorable, while Collins was 46%. In the first poll, Hochul was 52% and Collins 48%.
"This thing is so tight [and] split right down the middle that there is no clear advantage here right now," Buffalo News Political Columnist Bob McCarthy said of the poll.
To support how tight this race is beyond the overall tie at 47%, the breakdown of the demographics supports just how close this race is. Hochul is winning the Erie County portion of the district 51-45%, but Collins wins the rest of the district 48-44%. For voters under 55, Collins is winning 51-42%, but for voters 55 and older Hochul is ahead 51-45%. Collins leads among men 51-44%; Hochul among women 49-44%.
Voters were asked which candidate would do a better job representing them in congress on a number of issues. On the topics of health care, fixing the economy, jobs, taxes, and the federal deficit, Collins leads Hochul in each category. Hochul leads Collins on the topic of representing interests of the community in Washington. On the question of which candidate is better trusted to do the right thing when it comes to Medicare, the candidates are tied, 43-43.
The 27th district, which has larger republican enrollment, continues to break for Mitt Romney in the presidential race; Romney gets 51% of the vote in this latest poll, while Barack Obama gets 42%. But when it comes to getting cross-over votes connected to the presidential election, Hochul has stronger numbers then Collins. Hochul gets 13% of voters who selected Romney in her camp, compared to Collins getting 8% of Obama voters to choose him.
2 On Your Side spoke to both candidates about the results.
WEB EXTRA: Click on the video player links to watch the entire interviews with both Hochul and Collins.
REPORTER: If you could describe your reaction to these numbers in a word or two, what would it be?
HOCHUL: Listen, I don't pay -- I can't. You know why? Because we saw polls go up and down last time. I'm still fighting every day because it's so important people in this district have an independent voice for them in Washington, so the only polls that matter are on election day.
"We feel very good where we are," Collins said.
REPORTER: I'm sure some people are going to look at this and say: "Even though she's a popular incumbent, you'd have to think that a Republican at least some kind of advantage in such a strongly Republican district?"
COLLINS: Well, I'm confident on November 6 you're going to see exactly that advantage. To the best of my knowledge, I'm probably one of the only challengers in the entire country that's been leading on an incumbent since day one. There is a great advantage incumbents have.

10: Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe
"The first Mortal Kombat for the next-gen consoles. Highly sought by Mortal Kombat fans and fans of DC heroes like Superman and Spider-Man." (editor's note: Spider-Man is neither a DC property, nor even present in Mortal Kombat VS DC Universe)
9: X-Men Origins: Wolverine
"Most games based off of anime or movies are generally lackluster, however, this title turned out to be surprisingly good. Much like the Toy Story 3 game, which came it at number 11, X-Men Origins: Wolverine is a fairly popular movie-based game."
8: Splatterhouse
"An entirely new game in the series. The ability to unlock and play the previous 3 games is an added bonus."
7: Mortal Kombat
"The second next-gen Mortal Kombat. Unlike Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe, which, much to the chagrin of many hard-core fans, was rated Teen due to the addition of the DC heroes, the new Mortal Kombat was rated Mature, with its staple graphic killing scenes."
6: Aliens Vs Predator
"Pretty much all Alien-based games sell well. It's best to play this game after watching all the Alien movies, Predator movies, and Alien Vs Predator movies!" (editor's note: It's really not.)
5: Silent Hill: Homecoming
"The Japanese version was cancelled just before release, so this game sells well even now. Recently, people have been buying Homecoming together with the newly released Downpour and the HD collection of the originals."
4: Dead Space 2
"The sequel to Dead Space. It looks like "game sequels never outsell the original." Still, people who enjoyed the original should enjoy this one as well."
3: Prototype
"Even people who don't regularly play foreign games often come to our store asking, "Do you have this game called, 'Prototype?'" Mostly likely it's word of mouth from friends that's making this game popular enough for people to buy it without knowing what it's about."
2: Call of Duty: World At War
"This was the only game in the Call of Duty series that didn't get a Japanese release. Whether it's because it was released the year Activision pulled out of Japan, or because the enemies in the game are the Japanese, either way, it's a must-have for fans of the Call of Duty series." (editor's note: My bets are on the latter…)
1: Dead Space
"Dead Space is so famous that even people who don't play imported games know about it. The announcement that it wouldn't be sold in Germany or Japan was probably the best sales advertisement ever."
