|ASU Spring Practice Update
|Written by MIke Flynn
|Thursday, 17 March 2011 10:08
Appalachian State University football held its second intrasquad scrimmage of the spring on Wednesday afternoon, as the squad's offense and defense squared off for approximately 80 plays at the Sofield Family Indoor Practice Facility.Both defensive coordinator Dale Jones and quarterbacks coach Brad Glenn were pleased with their respective units' performances during the scrimmage. In particular, Jones continues to be impressed with the defense's grasp of a new three-man-front scheme that Appalachian began implementing this spring while Glenn noted the tenacity of ASU's offensive front during Wednesday's scrimmage.
Individual headliners included:
• John Rizor, who made several stops behind the line of scrimmage, including at least one sack, as a stand-up defensive end/outside linebacker in the Mountaineers' 3-4 scheme;
• redshirt freshman defensive back Tevin McDermott, who intercepted a pass that tipped off the hands of tight end Trevor Sawyer and later laid a devastating hit on Sawyer to break up a would-be completion over the middle;
• Michael Frazier, who has been practicing at running back since the team returned from spring break at the beginning of this week and impressed coaches in his first live action at the position, as did fellow running backs Cedric Baker and Rod Chisholm;
• all-America wide receiver Brian Quick, who caught several passes from fellow all-American DeAndre Presley, including a 32-yard touchdown on a post pattern;
• Sawyer, who overcame a handful of drops early in the scrimmage to haul in a touchdown pass from Jey Yokeley late in the scrimmage;
• inside linebacker Jeremy Kimbrough, who scooped up a fumbled handoff on the final snap of the afternoon and returned it for what would have been an 80-plus-yard touchdown.
Wednesday's practice was the 11th of 15 permitted by the NCAA during the spring. Appalachian wraps up the week on Thursday at the Sofield Indoor Facility before closing out the spring with three more practices next week.
PRO DAY SET FOR THURSDAY: Nine former Mountaineers with professional football aspirations will showcase their skills for pro scouts on Thursday during Appalachian's annual Pro Day.
Offensive lineman Daniel Kilgore, defensive back Mark LeGree, linebacker D.J. Smith, defensive end Jabari Fletcher, running backs Devon Moore and Devin Radford, wide receivers CoCo Hillary and B.J. Frazier and place kicker Jason Vitaris will all conduct various drills for the assembled scouts inside the Appalachian Athletics Center and Sofield Indoor Facility.
Pro Day activities are closed to the general public, however, a full report will be available following the conclusion of Wednesday's drills at GoASU.com.

Video: Looking Back with Jodi Johnston
BUFFALO, NY - As most of you may know already, this week is Jodi Johnston's last week on Channel 2 News.
Jodi is leaving television for a new job with a local bank.
We've been taking a look back at some of the memorable moments and stories Jodi has reported on through the years.
Monday on Daybreak, we surprised Jodi with a young lady who was featured in one of Jodi's stories, Natalie Rivera.
This morning, to her surprise, we had a message for her from young lady she did a story with several years ago.
Amelia Marohn was four years old when we first met her on Daybreak.
She was born with a rare condition called Hypoplastic Heart Syndrome - which prevents her heart from fully developing. She's had countless doctors visits and multiple surgeries - the first when she was just six days old.
She and her family wanted to thank Jodi and wish her well. Watch the video to see their message.

More information for Verus Surround Dipole/Bipole Speaker Pair
DetailsAre you asking yourself what the differences are, and benefits of Dipole vs. Bipole speakers? Here are some answers.
With Dipole speakers, the two sets of drivers are out of phase with each other. What out of phase means is that while one set of drives is pushing out, the speakers on the other side are pulling in. If mounted properly in your room, the result is something called a null or dead zone of sound. See the graphic for reference. When properly set up, a Dipole speaker provides an open, enveloping surround soundstage. For this to work properly, the speakers must be positioned in-line with the listening position as shown. If you are sitting out of the null area, the effect can be spoiled. If you don't want to, or simply can't place your surround speakers and listening position as required, that's where Dipoles come in handy.
In a bipolar speaker configuration, the two sets of drivers are in phase with one another… both sides push air at the same time. The result is greater sound output where the dipolar speaker's null would be. The optimum location for a bipole speaker is behind the listening position. This positioning offers the benefit of a more detailed surround sound and is the preference of people who prefer the greater localization of bipolar speakers when used in Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS.
Key Features:
- Dual 4.25" Aperion PhaseSync Drivers with integrated 1" Aperion ASR tweeters
- Anti-resonant cabinet
- Wall mounting brackets
- Furniture-Grade finish
- Ten year warranty
- FREE SHIPPING - a $35 value per pair*
- FREE lifetime technical support
Get the flexibility of two speakers in a single elegant package. Immerse yourself in surround sound with the Verus Surround dipole/bipole speaker and never make compromises in your home theater.

Customer Reviews For Verus Surround Dipole/Bipole Speaker Pair
- For the ultimate surround experience, look no further!!! Gerald B.
- In one sentence, these speakers are great for the surround channels. I am currently configured in 5.1, but seriously considering adding two or four more surround speakers to have a 7 or 9 channel setup; although my room size would not justify that many speakers. But these speakers really create a fantastic surround environment. And they look great!!!
My only two gripes are:- I wish Aperion would extend the piano finish at least to the bottom of the speaker ideally include the top also.
- And I would have preferred the use of larger drivers; like the 5 woofer on the Verus Grand Bookshelf speakers. I can only drive my surrounds with my crossover set at 100Hz. I understand that surround speakers are not meant to reproduce low frequencies, but THX settings on my receive default to 80Hz and this is too much for the surrounds. Regardless, they sound great!!
Even if the above suggestions were implemented and drove a price increase, I would still purchase them without reserves. I would love to see surround speakers match the dynamics of the Verus Grand Center!!
Continue the awesome work Aperion!!! (two thumbs up)
PS. I thought about getting the larger Verus Grand Bookshelf (VGB) speakers for my surround channels, but that would have caused a mounting issue for me since its not recommended to place them up against the wall. The VGBs are meant to be placed away from walls or corners to maintain their clarity and high frequency detail. If you place these against a wall or in a corner, they get boomy and muddy like any speaker.

Pro Reviews For Verus Surround Dipole/Bipole Speaker PairWe're sorry, we don't have any reviews for this product yet
New Aperion PhaseSync Driver
The Verus Forte line is intended for intimate spaces, and we wanted everyone in the room to have the best seat. So we built a new driver that optimizes on- and off-axis performance in the smallest size possible. The PhaseSync Driver packs the woofer and ASR tweeter into a single space-saving package. Coupled with the midrange driver, the Aperion PhaseSync lets Verus Forte deliver as much true-to-life sound as speakers nearly twice the size.
New Aperion Axially Stabilized Radiator
We engineered the new silk dome ASR to handle frequencies beneath most tweeters. Now the mid-high frequencies emit the same crystalline tones as their counterparts in the penthouse. From the pluck of a violin string to the screech of tires, the result is pure, authentic sound.
5-way gold-plated binding posts
The 5-way gold-plated binding posts let you connect your speakers any which way you choose: bare wire, banana plugs, spades, round pins or flat pins. Not only does the gold plating give your system some bling, it also serves a more practical purpose: to resist corrosion and provide the best possible connection to your receiver.
Acoustically Transparent Grille
Nothing stands between you and your sound. We designed a sonically invisible grille that not only looks great, but also protects your precious speakers from curious fingers, claws or snouts.

Read: Where JT Miller Is At
In his first professional season, 2011 first round pick JT Miller had 62 points in 61 regular season games and 10 points in 12 playoff games.
Miller played for Team USA at the World Junior Championships as well and was invited to their evaluation camp for this coming tournament.
Gordie Clark said during a Rangers chat on the team's website that Miller had a good season,"the season went the way we hoped. He was leading the team in scoring right off the bat. Had a good World Junior for Team USA, was a little tired but then geared it back up. We had to see what he could do in a 70 game seaosn since he was only played 40-45. At the end of the season he stepped right into the AHL and make some plays and do some things out there. It was a situation where we go into the summer camp, we will discuss JT and he may be ready to play in the AHL."
CLICK HERE for a section on Miller.
JT Miller says he's a little stronger, especially in his legs. He's grown into his body, very strong with his upper body. Thick in good way.

CUMBERLAND – For runners like Dave Constantino, the unicorn on the logo of the Boston Marathon has been fitting.
For nearly a decade at the hallowed 26.2-mile race, the 43-year-old Cumberland native has tried to track down his own personal unicorn – that is, break the 3-hour mark – but each time, he's fallen short.
And he has come oh-so-close. Two years ago, his time was 3:04:46. The previous year, he ran a 3:07:40. And in 2006, his second trip to Boston, he turned in a 3:09:27.
Constantino finally broke the elusive three-mile barrier last May at the Cox Marathon in Providence with a 2:59:17 time, and while that performance ranks among the highlights of his athletic career, it wasn't done on the sport's biggest stage in Beantown.
But Monday is right around the corner…
"I'm hoping maybe this will be the year that I'll finally break three in Boston," said Constantino, who will be heading to Hopkinton for the ninth straight year. "I know I can do it. I already did it last year in Providence. I'm hoping for the best and I'm confident I can pull it off."
Constantino was confident that last April's race was going to be his sub-three marathon, especially after establishing a personal best in it in 2011, but the extreme heat and the temperatures that hovered in the mid-80s for most of the day threw a monkey wrench into his plans.
At the half marathon mark, he checked in with a 1:28:32, but shortly after the 25K (15.5 miles) mark, he was reduced to running eight-minute miles, and despite a strong finish, he was saddled with a 3:14:56 time.
"That was the hardest marathon I ever ran," he admitted. "My splits were actually faster over the last six miles because I just wanted to get to the finish line. I never ran in those conditions before. I ran in the 70s and close to 80, but never that high.
"I'm surprised I actually did 3:14, compared to a lot of people. I met a gentleman at the finish line, and he told me that the previous year, he ran Boston in 2:45, but it took him 3½ hours to do it in the heat."
Dismayed by his finish, Constantino decided to spend the rest of the week resting up and then tackle the nearby Cox Marathon three weeks later. It was his 20th career marathon, and it turned out to be a magical one for him.
"I normally don't do marathons back-to-back like that," he confessed. "I usually take a week off to recuperate and then slowly get back into running, but it was haunting me so bad. I had to find out if I could do it. And I did."
While Mother Nature plans to cooperate with Constantino and the rest of the 26,000-plus runners on Monday (partly sunny with temperatures in the mid 50s), a minor issue with his right psoas muscle, which is attached to the spinal cord and connects to the top of the femur (thigh) bone, might present a problem – but only after the race.
"Last year, I went to see a chiropractor, with the hopes that maybe if I could get adjusted, get my body back into alignment, that it might improve my running," added Constantino, who said that his psoas issue forced him to restructure his normal training schedule. "And it has, because I actually shaved half a minute off my 5K times.
"But my doctor told me that once you go through the adjustment process, you're going to feel periods of discomfort in certain areas because you've been out of alignment. I have felt a little discomfort, but it doesn't bother me when I run. It's only after I'm done that I feel a little bit, but this isn't going to be enough to keep me out of the race."
Unlike most runners, Constantino got a late start on his running career. A 1988 graduate of Cumberland High, he didn't start running until he was 29 and required to do so in boot camp with the National Guard.
"After that, I began running more and I started competing (in races) in my early 30s, and that's when I got the bug," said Constantino. "I've been at it since then."
In 2002, he took part in his first marathon, the old Ocean State Marathon in Providence, and produced a 3:40:26 time. Constantino went back the following year sliced more than 20 minutes off his time (3:19:37), and the next October, he headed to Connecticut and hit paydirt by qualifying for Boston with a 3:09:17 time at the Hartford Marathon.
The following spring, Constantino made his Boston debut, but to his disappointment, he ended up with a 3:34:33 time. Nevertheless, he returned to Hartford six months later and qualified again for Boston. That's when he turned in his superb 3:09:27, and that began a streak of seven straight Boston Marathons that he finished under 3:19.
"I plan on continuing to run in Boston until I can't qualify," said Constantino. "I've been fortunate to be able to qualify every year. I qualified in Boston last year, even in the heat, but I also qualified three weeks later with a better time."
In addition to running, Constantino has also been active in the triathlon scene. In 2008, he did a full tri (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride, 26.2-mile run), the Ironman Lake Placid, in 12:26:38, and he's done his share of half and sprint triathlons, including last August's U.S. Triathlon Age Group Championships in Burlington, Vt.
"I don't run every day, but I do a lot of cross training," added Constantino. "One day, I'd run, and maybe run and bike on the same day, and the next day, I'd give my legs a break and swim or work out with some weights."
Constantino, who is also active on the 5K circuit (he had a handful of top-five finishes in Massachusetts races last year), plans to get in some more 3.1-milers this year, as well as a couple of sprint tris, and he has his sights set on returning to South Hero, Vt. in October to run in the Green Mountain Marathon.
Last year, Constantino had to battle conditions that were the opposite of what he faced in Boston – "it was very windy, 25-30 mph winds, raining, and in the 40s" – but he finished fourth in his 40-49 age division with a time of 3:04:22.
"I haven't decided what I'm going to do," said Constantino. "I thought about doing Cox again, but like I said, I hate to do back-to-back marathons. But I definitely plan on doing the Green Mountain again because I want to try to break three hours up there."
But first things first. There's a big race in Boston in a couple of days that's next on his to-do list, and a golden opportunity to lasso a unicorn that's eluded him for so long.
"We'll see what happens," added Constantino. "I know I've come up short, but I'm hoping that this year might be different."

CLEVELAND -- For once, Chip Kelly isn't in hurry-up mode.
Oregon's innovative offensive coach has not yet decided if he'll jump to the NFL and he's weighing offers from the Browns and Philadelphia Eagles, who appear to be in a bidding war for the 49-year-old with zero pro experience.
The Browns were close to completing a deal with Kelly on Friday, but he didn't give them an answer and kept a scheduled meeting Saturday with the Eagles.
There's a deeper wrinkle to the Browns vs. Eagles battle for Kelly. Browns CEO Joe Banner spent 19 seasons in Philadelphia before leaving last year. He's childhood friends with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, who could be trying to lure Kelly away from Cleveland.
Banner and Browns owner Jimmy Haslam have been conducting interviews since firing Pat Shurmur last week.
We've confirmed reports that the Eagles were still meeting with Chip Kelly late Saturday night.
The Browns were supposed to have dinner with Kelly to strike a deal, but reports say that meeting hasn't happened.
The Eagles seemed lukewarm on Kelly but reports say they did send their owner, president and general manager to Arizona to meet with Kelly on Saturday.
That lunch meeting with Kelly and the Eagles went past the dinner hour.A beat writer for the Philadelphia inquirer toldChannel3 Sports thatthey were still meeting as of 10:30 p.m. Saturday night.
The Browns met with Chip Kelly for seven hours Saturday but they left the meeting without a signed deal.
It appears the Browns have serious competition now for Chip Kelly.
Stay with wkyc.com and Channel 3 for the very latest in the search for a new Browns head coach.

POTSDAM - A new sports bar is coming to Potsdam in March, promising gourmet burgers and craft beers.
Marc C. Morley and Megan Martin, owners of the Hot Tamale restaurants in Canton and Potsdam, are in the process of opening Between the Buns on 6 Elm St.
The menu will offer 10 types of gourmet burgers along with appetizers and sandwiches, and the bar will be stocked with liquor and beer, including some craft microbrews.
The restaurant will focus on quality and consistency, with a fairly small number of menu options, according to Mr. Morley.
We just wanted to keep it simple. Burgers seem to be a hot trend right now, he said.
The beef will be a unique blend, created or the restaurant by a Philadelphia butcher.
Mr. Morley says he hopes to make Between the Buns a destination for families and Potsdams large college population, with restaurant style seating for those who want a family meal and bar seating for those who just want to have a burger and watch a game.
We want everyone to feel comfortable here, he said.
The pair has hired a chef, but will need to fill out the rest of their staff as renovations are completed. Renovations have been ongoing for the last two months, and Mr. Morley said the restaurant will have its liquor license by the end of February, in time to open in early March.
The building formerly housed La Casbah, a Moroccan-themed restaurant and bar that shut down in December.
Its something that Ive had in mind for a year, but I never had a location, Mr. Morley said.
He is renting the two-story building and will only be using the lower floor for Between the Buns. There are plans for a separate restaurant or bar on the top floor, he said, but he wants to focus on successfully launching the first before beginning work on the second.
Once we open downstairs well start renovating upstairs, he said.

Could anyone offer any reference to this plate? Trying to find a price to sell it at.
Thanks so very much.

This pieces was made by Wileman and Co., at the Foley pottery works. They made hundreds of patterns and not all of the Foley patterns actually had a name, all some have is a pattern number or not even that. Plates like this were mass produced for the Export market prior to World War One and have limited values except as replacement pieces for existing dinner services. Most like this one would sell for less than $25.00 for that purpose and probably under $10.00 at auction.

Chinese pro-life activist Chen Guangcheng, who was released by Beijing's communist government a year ago and allowed to re-locate to the United States, is leaving New York University, and Chen claims the school is being pressured by China's regime to boot him out. Chen escaped to the U.S. Embassy in Beijing last year after suffering years of abuse and imprisonment at the hands of the Chinese government over his efforts to expose the government's repressive one-child policy that includes forced late-term abortions for women and forced sterilization for couples who challenge the system. He was later granted political amnesty in the United States and was invited to relocate to NYU and continue his law studies.
According to the BBC, NYU announced that Chen would leave this summer and that his tenure at the school was never meant to be open-ended. "We were pleased to offer Mr Chen and his family a place to come and study and support his transition to the U.S. when he first left China," NYU spokesman John Beckman was quoted by BBC as saying. He added that "NYU and Mr Chen had discussions beginning last fall that NYU could not support him indefinitely."
But the New York Times reported Sunday, June 16, that Chen accused NYU of bowing to pressure from the Chinese government to force him to leave. "In a statement released Sunday, Mr. Chen said university officials were worried that his outspoken criticism of the Chinese government might threaten academic cooperation," reported the Times. "NYU recently opened a campus in Shanghai, and a number of professors are involved in programs and research projects here that could be harmed if they were denied Chinese visas."
In his statement Chen said that the "work of the Chinese Communists within academic circles in the United States is far greater than what people imagine, and some scholars have no option but to hold themselves back. Academic independence and academic freedom in the United States are being greatly threatened by a totalitarian regime."

Comments about Patagonia Baby Retro-X Jacket:
This is my son's favorite jacket right now. I tell him to wait for when it gets colder but he can't! I love the fact that it is wind-proof because we live on the Monterey peninsula/Salinas Valley and it gets foggy and windy here. My son calls this his bear jacket! Can't go wrong with this one. It is thick and plush and well-made as expected.
It will get a lot of use!

CSU Art Museums Showcasing and Developing Talent
August 30, 2012
By Stephanie Thara
The art museums located on the CSU Long Beach and CSU San Bernardino campuses have become cultural icons on the campus and in the community. The University Art Museum (UAM) at CSULB and the Robert and Frances Fullerton Museum of Art (RAFFMA) at CSUSB are responsible for showcasing wide-ranging exhibitions, educating the public and campus community about art, and training students to become experts in museum related careers.
Presenting exhibitions that blend visual arts with technology, music and contemporary culture, the UAM at CSULB has showcased pieces that define significant moments in contemporary art to national and international audiences for over 30 years. The UAM maintains a permanent assortment of over 1,600 works of art that include drawings, photographs, a collection of mid-century American paintings and outdoor sculptures that are strategically placed throughout the campus.
"Through groundbreaking contemporary art exhibitions, new art and technology projects, and innovative sound works, the UAM is blurring the boundaries between visual arts and design, technology, music and contemporary culture," said Chris Scoates, director of UAM.
Much more than just a home for art, the UAM staff works with students to help train them for future careers as museum professionals, art educators, art administrators and artists. Open to students, scholars and the general public, the UAM strives to serve the regional community by offering unique opportunities to interact with artists through residencies, workshops and lectures.
At CSUSB's RAFFMA, visitors can explore Ancient Egypt with the museum's permanent collection of Egyptian art—the 500-piece compilation encompasses over 4,000 years of Egyptian history.
"We are one of the few museums in the Western United States that showcase Egyptian Art," said Eva Kirsch, director of RAFFMA. "We are actually the only museum on a university that has an Ancient Egyptian collection."
Each year, RAFFMA organizes a Summer Egyptian Art Workshop for local middle school students that includes hands-on activities, educational lectures and special tours of the museum's assortment of Egyptian antiquities that are led by trained docents and student assistants. In addition to preparing activities that help middle schoolers learn about Egypt's history, university students can participate in a gallery management class where they can potentially be hired on to work as a museum staff member.
"Students get trained on museum operations, assist with openings, help exhibitionists, and can eventually become assistant registrars," said Kirsh.
RAFFMA and UAM strive to provide visitors with a cultural experience through an eclectic mix of artwork from students, up-and-coming artists and established professionals. Both museums have been recognized for their commitment to excellence and high professional standards by the American Association of Museums, making them among the 16 percent of university museums in the nation that are AAM accredited.

Wouldn't be too surprised if she also served as the cook either since she probably got a lot of practice as a kid and shes probably the only decent cook they have.Looks like she's kinda a technician in this game, going by the outfit and what seems like oil smirks on her arms and face.
She was already capable in building The Metal Gear Mark 2 and 3, along with Hall when she was just 6 or 7 years old in MGS4, and a computer expert aswell, not to mention her codering to end the Patriots system, FoxAlive, who knows what she's capable off in this game, like 10 years older I'm guessing.
Maybe she's the one that takes care of Raiden's equiptments and suits.

I'm having a discussion with someone quite older than me, so I have no place in telling him what is wise. He is in the computer field but resists change, and we're discussing how his co-workers are enjoying learning a new technology and he's just avoiding it like the plague.
I'm looking for maybe some good reading or testimony to support following trends and learning new technologies, rather than falling behind and sticking with what you know even as it's outdated. The kind of stuff which you might have someone who's in love with BASIC or PASCAL or mainframes read, because they won't listen to you directly.
Internet articles or convincing, well-written blog posts preferred, but any good books are welcome too.

With the smell of backroom deals and corruption permeating the L.A. City Council chambers, residents and stakeholders of L.A.'s dynamic Koreatown/Wilshire Center community escalated their drive for increased self-determination and representation in city government by taking their demand to be made part of Council District 13 right into city hall.
About 200 Korean Americans wearing yellow t-shirts proclaiming "I (Heart) Koreatown" responded to a last-minute call for action to attend the morning council session only to be met with the oldest stall tactic in politics. Council President Herb Wesson, whose staff had been the target of graft and bribery allegations at L.A. Redistricting Commission meetings all last month, apologized profusely for having to delay the public comments 2½ hours until after several ceremonial presentations and perfunctory unanimous votes were finished.
However, despite their long wait, the Koreatown speakers thanked CD10 Councilman Wesson for the opportunity to speak and asked the council to rethink the redistricting body's recommendation that their neighborhood be divided between two council districts. There was no chanting or shouting. Several speakers read passages from the Bible.
But the stick to the carrot wielded by Koreatown Wednesday is a plan to sue the city, alleging that the redistricting process has been illegally politicized. There is also talk of calling in the FBI to investigate charges made by Koreatown business owners of bribe-solicitation and shakedowns by Wesson Deputy Chief of Staff Michael Bai, a Korean American and a high-profile figure in the community.
As the 20th anniversary of "Sa-I-Gu" (the Korean American community's cipher for the 1992 L.A. economic and race riots which decimated their businesses throughout the city) approaches, Koreatown is tired of pay-to-play, business as usual political corruption they have allegedly been subjected to by officeholders. After years of being represented by the controversial former 10th District Councilman Nate Holden (and his chief deputy Herb Wesson), Korean Americans, who supplied more than one-third of Holden's campaign finances, are looking to eliminate the middle man, get more bang for their buck and elect a councilman of their own. Thus, the drive to be included in Councilman Eric Garcetti's CD13.
Garcetti, son of former L.A. County DA Gil Garcetti, has already announced he will run for L.A. mayor in 2013. Political strategists say the election to fill the council vacancy created by a Garcetti victory next March would give a Korean American favorite son/daughter candidate a great chance to become the first Asian American on the L.A. City Council since Chinese American urban planner Michael Woo was elected over CD13 incumbent Peggy Stevenson 27 years ago.
From 1985 to 1993, Woo, the son of an influential Chinatown banker, was the first—and so far the only— Asian American on the L.A. City Council. Koreatown's savvy new generation of political leaders are hungry and seem ready to make history, and nobody's mentioned it yet, but it looks like the Holden-Wesson golden goose has flown.

Even More Bad Parenting Advice marks Guy Delisle's second foray into the world of offering bad advice to parents, and a second opportunity to express the minor frustrations and many joys of parenting. Delisle's skillful hand at illustration and ironic way with words, which helped to popularize his travelogues about daily life in faraway places, are just as much the stars here as he or his children are. Delisle celebrates the reality that parenting isn't all first steps and gold-starred report cards; it's stinky diapers and never-ending drives to the grocery store, too.

Science – 1; Magic – 0
By Ann Fenech, on 13 June 2010
Yesterday a boy told me "you cannot make a perpetual motion machine" while discussing water rockets and Newton's laws. But today I think I've seen one! Running around the stage at breakneck speed Alom Shaha has just presented Science vs Magic.
For Alom, magic school took 10 weeks and £250; Science, including time at UCL, cost him 20 years and over £15,000. Which was worth it?
With a card trick we delved into 'How does that work?'
- Magic? Simple explanations!
- Science? It's about "fundamental things"
Another difference?
- Magic = cheap props…"Magicians are obsessed with handkerchiefs"
- Science = real phenomena…"Understand the nature of reality at its fundamental level"
From vanishing handkerchiefs, to mind-blowing mind-reading, we saw it all. But of course there is a scientific reason behind everything…and a scientific phenomenon which is even more exciting than the magic trick!
Alom Shaha said, "Science is hard", but there is the "satisfaction of getting to grips with it". I think that is one of the most important messages. It is more the satisfaction of getting my teeth into a problem and solving it that I appreciate about science, rather than necessarily the learning of 'stuff'. And I think that is what we need to get across to the general public: the 'good feeling' you get from finally seeing the light in any problem.
I want to end by echoing Alom Shaha's excellent sentiment at the end of the event:
I don't care that I'm just a physics teacher, because that is what I want to be"

Purchasing Office
The Keene State College Purchasing Office, under the guidance of the University System of New Hampshire Board of Trustees policies and procedures, seeks the development and implementation of effective and ethical procurement practices, principles and techniques, through continuing education, publication and networking opportunities, resulting in the timely procurement of quality goods and services for the College.
Attention Pcard Holders;
Historically, the Purchasing Department has held a Pcard Meeting at the beginning of each academic year. This year, in light of everyone's extremely busy schedules, we thought we'd try something new; emails with important tips and reminders. Hopefully, this will be a better way of reaching the entire campus community rather than just those who's schedule allows them to attend the meeting.
In addition, we will send periodic tips and updates throughout the year in an effort to maintain better communication. . Our goal is to make this program better and more easily understood by everyone.
This first email will cover some major issues that need to be addressed. Please take a minute to read them over and let us know if you have any questions. Most, if not all was covered during your initial PCard training however we am more than willing to do individual or group refresher training if necessary.
It is the card holders responsibility to make sure his/her statement is accurate which includes, but is not limited to the following:
If you haven't already please pick up your new Pcard in the Purchasing Office. Your current card will expire at the end of the month.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to give us a call.

Campus FY'12 Typemaster Copier and Fax Service Contracts
In our continued efforts to save college funds the KSC Purchasing office has completed an analysis of our current non-Conway, (Typemaster) copier and fax machine service contracts. The Purchasing office has acted as the manager of these contracts in the past. We collected/reviewed them, paid for them and then charged individual departments back for their respective machines.
Based upon recent history of service calls, we have found that departments can save money by NOT entering into annual service agreements for their TypeMaster machines. Our analysis is purely financial and is not intended to criticize Typemaster as they have done a very good job for KSC over these many years.
What this means: The College can save money by not entering into service contracts for these machines in FY'12. It does put the burden of any and all repairs on the individual departments. Should major repairs be needed or if frequent services calls are requested, departments may incur increased costs over their historical annual service contract fees. This strategy represents a calculated risk we feel are required by our FY'12 budget concerns.
KSC Users are not to enter into any service agreements for the Typemaster machines. Should they require service or supplies, they can call Typemaster and use their PCard as the preferred procurement vehicle. While policy states that PCards cannot be used for services we have been granted an exception for the Typemaster contract only.
In addition to the economic argument stated above, KSC continues to work on the USNH wide Print Management project. This project incorporates a phased rollout of new printer/copier/fax machines called Multi Functional Printers, (MFPs) to the entire campus this coming fiscal year. We are currently in the process of conducting a pilot program in Fiske this summer to help us better plan for the upcoming campus implementation of these new machines. Once installed, these new MFPs will eliminate the need for machine specific annual service agreements.
Please contact the KSC Purchasing office with any questions or concerns. We thank you in advance for your willingness to make changes to save funds.

|Written by Steve Frank
|Tuesday, 08 March 2011 07:22
An Elk Park woman was injured this morning in what might be a black ice related wreck. The accident was at about 6:45am on NC 105—rock crusher hill near Flintlock Campground,
as Teresa Davis' pick-up slammed into the embankment after spinning. Watauga Medics, Boone Fire, and the State Patrol on the scene, with the DOT called to treat the road, as a number of slick spots were seen where water from the weekend rains froze on the road. Teresa Davis was cited for exceeding a safe speed for conditions by trooper J.D. Brown.

This letter is in response to the comments published in the Sun Advocate on Feb. 13 by Andy Barnett concerning Carbon County Recreation.
I would like to first say how wonderful it is to have a community that supports and puts in the volunteer effort they do. Many are dedicated people who have a passion for these sports, and you step up and help. Because of you the programs we offer are less expensive, and better then other programs around this state.
Many community members have great interest in the programs we offer, and we are always interested in listening, and improving anything we do. If you have ideas or comments about a program please feel free to sit down with us and talk about it. I am also asking the community if there are those out there that have skills in any of these areas to step up and give something back to the community, and help run these programs. More then anything we need more community involvement in the 90 plus programs we offer.
We ask for this help and also ask parents and community members alike to understand that every kid in this county is entitled to learn, and play in all area recreational programs, no matter what their skill level or interests may be. This is why competition is not a big part of what we do.
I also am asking that parents stop verbally assaulting our coaching and officiating staff, because many of them are stepping up to do these jobs to better the community. If people are looking for more competitive organizations then they should invest in raising a private program that focuses on that. We do not discriminate or arrange teams based on skill level.
I am also asking the community to put on our shoes and walk around for a minute. We will do everything possible to help improve a program. Don't approach the subject in a commission meeting or write letters to the editor when we can fix a problem through conversation. Furthermore don't approach any problems that you yourself would not be willing to help resolve.
I feel there are much greater issues to be discussed in a commission meeting or in letters to the editor in regards to recreation, than the problems about a small sports program. For example a recreation center, or a refrigerated ice skating rink.
My promise to the community is that if you get involved in these programs and help make them better, you and the community alike will feel better about this wonderful place we live, and the awesome opportunities we have to recreate.

Isn't it amazing the way the Internet has changed the way we experience the world around us? It's changed the way we interact with friends and family, how we network, even how we shop. Think about how Cyber Monday has eclipsed the mad dash at Toys R Us on Black Friday every holiday season. We're convinced that mobile shopping will be the next big thing in convenience shopping and we're not the only ones.
According to eMarketer, almost 100 million U.S. consumers will be on the mobile web this year. That's an estimated increase of a whopping 25 percent. eMarketer forecasts that by 2015 more than three in five mobile users will be using the mobile web, and they won't all be playing Angry Birds.
Mobile shopping has really hit the ground running for companies that are relying on tools like Microsoft Tag to reach out to their consumer base. The accessibility and convenience that Tag provides mobile shoppers can be outright mind boggling. The mobile element to Tag campaigns not only helps to grab the target audience' attention and key them in to the product or company, but it provides super convenient access to valuable information or shopping opportunities.
It is important for companies to really think about how tools like Tag would work best for their business. Thinking about your specific target demographic is key. As eMarketer notes, mobile Internet usage is likely to remain strongest in younger adults; however, usage is on the rise with older adults as well. Smartphone sales are up and aren't likely to go in any other direction, according to a study by comScore released in May. Prosper Mobile Insights asked mobile users what they use their smartphones for and Internet usage came in second only to texting.
As more people become accustomed to relying on mobile Internet for things like coupons, finding local restaurants, entering contests and shopping, and companies become more experienced at using the mobile Internet and mobile optimized webpages to grow their business, the convenience provided by tools such as Tag will become part of the everyday shopping experience. Already, Oracle and ATG research found that three in ten U.S. consumers have made at least one purchase on their mobile device. That number is up 123 percent more than the 13 percent of consumers who had made a purchase on their mobile device back in November 2009.
Here are some suggestions to help retailers avoid a few pitfalls that might throw them off their game as they integrate mobile tools:
Lastly, but most importantly, be sure that the implementation of your mobile campaign goes off without a hitch and make sure that your 2D Code is crystal clear. That way, when your customers do go for the scan they get what they've been promised, either a sleek mobile website where they can buy your product, an exciting giveaway, a valuable coupon or top reviews by your faithful fans. With Tag you don't need to worry about blurry barcodes or not being able to update your mobile optimized website. The reliability and consistency of Microsoft Tag is practically goof proof.
How important do you think mobile commerce will be for retailers? Let us know with your comments below or on Facebook or Twitter.

A Human Resources (HR) Assistant earns an average wage of $15.20 per hour. Most people with this job move on to other positions after 20 years in this career. Pay for this job does not change much by experience, with the most experienced earning only a bit more than the least.
Human resources (HR) assistants use their skills to assist the human resource departments of companies to facilitate the functioning of the workspace and ensure development of the workforce. HR assistants assist HR departments with daily and special tasks, including facilitating communication between employees and company executives and providing employs with essential access to information. HR assistants may be required to complete a number of responsibilities, including maintaining programs to increase employee safety and efficiency, new employee training and orientation, and promoting company culture.Read More...
HR assistants often work with compensation and benefits for employees, as well as record keeping and providing other employee services. HR assistants support many areas of new employee hiring, including scheduling initial interviews, completing reference checks and changes in personnel. They may also spend time assisting with executive administration.
HR assistants generally work indoors in office settings during daytime hours, but may be required to attend outside events for employee orientation, training, workshops and team enrichment activities. Most HR assistants complete their work with the use of computerized systems of information management. HR assistants work closely with HR departments and with individual employees, are tasked with answering questions for employees regarding policy and procedures, and may refer employees to a specialist when needed. HR assistants are required to compile and present statistical data on employees; assist in projects, events and open enrollment; arrange for meetings; and facilitate communication amongst departments and employees. The position generally requires mental acuity and very little physical labor. A high school diploma or experience working in an office setting is usually required.

WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) -- While the President's been working on his inaugural speech, his staff has had to respond to a petition signed by 34-thousand people demanding the government build a Death Star. That's Death Star as in DS-1 Orbital Battle Station from Star Wars Episode IV.
Maybe that's why the White House is changing the rules for on-line petitions. This week, a White House blog announced the threshold for getting a response to an on-line petition at We The People is jumping from 25,000 signatures to 100,000 signatures.
When the White House first raised the threshold from 5,000 signatures, it said the popularity of the site was "a good problem to have." Director of Digital Strategy Macon Phillips now insists a good problem "is only getting better."
But some staffers are now saying "My God, what have we done!!?"
One of the first petitions after they increased the threshold demanded that they take it back down.

LAKE PLACID The mens coaches in ECAC Hockey are not expecting a tough time this season when they face St. Lawrence and Clarkson universities, at least according to their preseason poll, which was released at the conferences media day Tuesday.
The conferences coaches predicted that St. Lawrence will finish 10th in the 12-team conference and they placed the Golden Knights in last place.
SLU went 9-9-4 in conference play a year ago and the Saints were only two points away from finishing in fourth place, which would have earned them a first-round bye in the conference playoffs.
Clarkson went 8-11-3 a year ago and was seeded ninth in the playoffs.
The Saints lost two key players to graduation forward Kyle Flanagan and defenseman George Hughes but return their leading scorer in Hobey Baker Award candidate Greg Carey, a senior who tallied 28 goals and 23 assists last season.
Clarkson lost only senior defensemen Nik Pokulok and Andrew Himelson among the regular players on last years team and returns its top eight scorers, though the team scored just 89 goals in 36 games.
Defending national champion Yale was the choice of the conferences coaches to win the championship, earning four of the 12 first-place votes. Rensselaer, which received two votes, was second, followed by national championship runner-up Quinnipiac and Union, which also received two votes and tied for third. The other first-place votes went to Cornell, which is picked to finish fifth, and Dartmouth, which is picked to finish seventh.
SLUs Carey was selected by the coaches to the preseason, all-conference team as a forward, joining Yales Kenny Agostino and Princetons Andrew Calof. The defensemen are Unions Shayne Gostibehere and Cornells Joakim Ryan and the goalie is RPIs Jason Kasdorf.
SLU fared slightly better in the medias preseason poll, with a seventh-place prediction. But the media also picked Clarkson to finish last.
The media chose RPI as league champion, with 18 of 33 first-place votes, followed by Yale (five votes) and Quinnipiac (six).
The conference also announced Tuesday that it will no longer play a third-place game during the championship weekend. Last years third-place game was a national championship game preview as Quinnipiac defeated Yale 3-0.
