Seniors from Hammond, Lisbon and Heuvelton were honored as the NAC West Girls Basketball season headed into the final week on Monday.
At Hammond, the Red Devils honored four seniors before a 48-24 win over Harrisville which clinched a share of the NAC West title at 12-0. At Lisbon, the Athletic Department honored three Lisbon seniors and two Heuvelton seniors who have competed against each other for several years including youth leagues before the Bulldogs topped the Knights 48-24.
Clifton-Fine 65, Morristown 34: One down, three more to go for the Eagles (8-3, 11-3) look to earn a top five seed in the upcoming sectionals. The Eagles have three more games this week including matchups with Heuvelton and Hammond.
Morgan Skeldon tallied 28 points and grabbed 11 rebounds for C-F. Alexis Pomerville added 13 while Hunter Hitchman added 12. Delaney Kerr chipped in 10.

It was senior night at Hammond. We honored four wonderful individuals who will go on in life and be as productive as they are in basketball at Hammond, said Hammond coach Shawn Dack speaking about Macy Wilson, Gabby Marshall, Brianne Langtry, and Alyssa Crosby.
And that is really what coaching is all about. A lot of people think its Xs and Os but to us (the girls program) its about life. And how exactly are you going to go about it, especially when life knocks you down!!! I cant tell you how proud I am I these seniors and this team. What a wonderful group of girls. And I also have to mention how great their parents and families are. Hammond is such a wonderful community and school. I am very blessed to have had the opportunity to work here. The girls worked really well tonight. At some spots in the game we stood around to much again, especially first half, but we got going in second. Senior night is emotional so Im glad we got through it. Now we can focus on our finish.
Courtney Bova drained two threes and scored six points in the first quarter and seven in the third to pace Hammond with 18 points. Alyssa Crosby added 11 points including 10 in the second half. Mikayla Horton and Gabby Marshall each scored six points.

|Commissions Derail Commissioners; Meeting Resumes This AM
|Written by Gary Childers/Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 17 October 2012 05:33
Watauga County Commissioners have one revised and one new offer for the old Watauga High campus, but commissions kept the Commissioners from reaching a conclusion at last night's meeting. So, officially, that meeting is still underway. Actually, commissioners adjourned last night
after over two hours of discussion of how to pay agents who brought the offers to the table, Commissioners Jim Deal and Nathan Miller differing on how to handle that matter, Deal wanting to do all the math, Miller satisfied with the most dollars on the table. Specifically, the offers on the table are a $17 million revised offer from Campus Crest Development and its agent, Rick Miller, and a $16.6 million offer from Sanctuary Management and its agent, John Howie, new to the issue. Campus Crest Development was asked to meet and revise the commission in their offer, and they returned, dropping the 10 percent commission to 7%. The Sanctuary Management offer included the 5 percent commission to be paid by the county as requested by the county. Company officials from the Georgia firm were not present at last night's meeting. The commission issue does make a large difference in the math, as the county would net $15.81 million from the Campus Crest offer and $15.77 million from the Sanctuary Management offer—and with such a small separation in net funds to the county, commissioners decided to take the offers home for a night of study, Commissioner Deal berating Miller over not wanting to carefully review both offers. That meeting resumes at 7:30 this morning to take—or not take—one or any of the offers. Meanwhile, Place Acquisition, through agent Tim Hagaman, did not revise their $15.5 million bid, but may play a part in upset bidding as the process goes along.

A petition to lower the precedence of the Distinguished Warfare Medal, which is meant to recognize contributions to combat operations by drone pilots and cyber-warriors, still needs several thousand signatures to be reviewed by the White House.
As someone who has had sand on his boots, someone who lost two buddies during Desert Storm, it bugs you that someone sitting at a control station in Las Vegas would get something that is equivalent or superior to something that someone would get whos on the ground fighting the hard fight, said John L.W. Evans III, San Marcos, Texas, the author of the petition on the White Houses We the People website.
Mr. Evans learned about the proposed medal via a Facebook post by a member of his former unit, the 317th Engineer Battalion, and said it wasnt so much the award itself that angered him, but its place in the order of precedence.
He said he started the petition to express his feelings and is amazed that it has grabbed so much attention.
The Defense Department said Feb. 19 that it will not change the ranking of the medal, which is set to fall below the Distinguished Flying Cross but above the Bronze Star and Purple Heart, despite negative reactions from many veterans, including Danny M. Francis, a Watertown resident and three-time recipient of the Purple Heart for his service in Vietnam.
Im not saying their jobs not important. In many cases its critical. But putting it at the same level of combat troops or combat supporting troops ... its just not the same, Mr. Francis, a former Marine, said last week.
Mr. Evans said that as someone who is technologically savvy, he recognizes the changing face of war, but that having troops on the ground is never a popular option but a necessary option, and he does not want to see those who make the biggest sacrifice get lost in the shuffle.
On Feb. 15, Air Force officials released nomination criteria for the medal, which will be awarded to honor individuals for single acts of extraordinary achievement, not involving acts of valor, that directly impact combat or other military operations.
According to an article from the American Forces Press Service, Pentagon Press Secretary George Little said Feb. 19 that the Distinguished Warfare Medal will be granted pretty rarely and that factored into the decision on its precedence.
Criteria for the medal, which will be retroactive to Sept. 11, 2001, require that the extraordinary achievement must result in an accomplishment so exceptional and outstanding as to clearly set the individual apart from comrades or others in similar situations, and that the action include hands-on employment of a weapons system, including remotely controlled assets, or any other activity, in any domain, that had a direct and immediate on-site effect on an engagement or operation against a target.
The medal will not be awarded for acts of valor.
Three U.S. representatives introduced legislation Tuesday asking the Pentagon to reconsider the ranking of the medal.
As of Wednesday night, Mr. Evanss petition had 15,362 signatures. It needs 84,638 more by March 16 to be reviewed by White House staff.
The petition can be viewed here: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/lower-precedence-new-distinguished-warfare-medal/5KdnkBBN

someone has been playing quake in windows 8? I installed windows 8 pro and I could not play, when I start the game gets stuck help: (
some plugin for windows 8?
update your gpu drivers, some older gpus dont work correctly in windows 8 due to new features that older gpus dont/cant support. ie ati cards that are not 5000+ not sure which nvidia cards have issues
Amd 8350 - 4816.08 MHz on air

Windows 8 x64 + geforce 8800 GT issue at latest nvidia driver 306.97:
Cant play fullscreen - game crashes when full screen is selectet
seems like several others have the same problem... in your place i would not upgrade
Try running QL in Mozilla Firefox when using Windows 8. This worked for me.
Internet Explorer: Can't install Plugin (Perhaps a Java-Issue??)
Opera: Crashes when selecting fullscreen (Perhaps a Java-Issue??)
Firefox: Works
So I now have Firefox installed in order to play QL
Hope this helps for you aswell!
QL works perfectly for me in win8 in chrome/firefox, I haven't tested IE but know it can't work in metro IE as that doesn't support plugins.
The nvidia drivers that windows update automatically installs (currently 306.97) work perfectly on my 460 gtx, they give full openGL support. they are the same drivers that you get if you go to the nvidia driver website and select the current WHQL build.
As for ATI I don't know I don't have any ATI gear to test, sorry.

You could also try with QLPrism - works like a charm for me now.
In the past I had many connection problems (ql would disconnect mid-game, and had to do a net_restart to solve it), but it seems that bug has been solved now

Opinion: Late-Game Blame on Players, Not Sparano
Corey Griffin , TheJetsBlog.com
Under Brian Schottenheimer's direction, the Jets' offense seemingly had a new plan every week. While that can work when you've got Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers at the helm — or any quarterback with a true mastery of most basic NFL concepts — with a young, growing Mark Sanchez, it clearly overloaded him and his teammates and was one of the reasons why Schotty is off in St. Louis destroying Sam Bradford's development.
Now, Tony Sparano has come under fire for doing Sunday exactly what he said the Jets' offense would do when they hired him last winter and all offseason: execute the playbook every week, regardless of opponent. Sparano's philosophy is about executing a small number of plays well, rather than executing a large number poorly.
It's one of the reasons why I won't kill Sparano for Sunday's calls during the post-fumble fourth quarter drive that ended in a field goal and not a touchdown. After re-watching the tape, the problems with that drive lean more toward the players' execution of the plays and less with Sparano's calls. More after the jump.
First and 10
The play: The Jets pulled out a new "wrinkle" this week, with Tim Tebow lining up deep in the backfield and Mark Sanchez under center. Sanchez eventually motioned out wide, leaving Tebow as the de facto quarterback with Lex Hilliard as his fullback. Jeremy Kerley was in the slot to the left, Stephen Hill in the slot to the right and Dustin Keller was an inline blocker on the right end of the line. They ran Tebow out of the same formation earlier in the game and picked up a big third-down conversion. Obviously, that didn't happen here, although the yardage amounts was pretty similar. On the snap, Hilliard went behind the right guard, while Tebow took the ball behind center as he's done so many times from the shotgun/wildcat formation. While it's a play that's unlikely to gain 15 yards, it's reasonable to expect the Jets to gain 4-5 yards and set them up, eventually, for third and short. Tebow ran into a wall and only gained two yards.
The problem: The Pats' defense knew what was coming. The linebackers all crashed the line of scrimmage and Jerod Mayo hit the designed running lane before Tebow even got out of the backfield, occupying Nick Mangold. While Matt Slauson did a decent job of keeping Vince Wilfork out of the play, right guard Brandon Moore also got zero push and was held up at the line by the Pats' other interior lineman (looked to to be No. 71 Brandon Deadrick). The official play gave Chandler Jones and Brandon Spikes credit for the tackle on the play, but it was Deadrick who was able to get a hand on Tebow at the line of scrimmage and hold him long enough for Jones and Spikes to combine on the tackle. For those that think maybe Tebow should have bounced the play outside, Keller got pushed back two yards right at the snap by Dont'a Hightower and would have been free if Tebow had gone in his direction.
The solution: This seems to be the play that has Jets fans up in arms. With the two-minute warning, why a run play when the clock will stop regardless? I can understand the frustration, but if Moore keeps Deadrick off of Tebow at the line, the play could have gone for 3-4 yards, setting up a much more manageable 2nd and 6 and putting the offense another 3 yards from a 3rd and short, as the play is designed to do. However, I can't help but wonder if this wasn't the perfect time for Tebow to fake the dive and pull back in time to hit Stephen Hill (who was left alone in the middle of the field) on a short 5-7 yard pass. But then again, can you imagine the outrage if Tebow throws the ball there and it's intercepted? Sparano would have been skewered for
2nd and 8
The play: Sanchez was back under center, except the Jets went with I've decided to tag their "Super-duper jumbo package." Stephen Hill was the only wideout, split wide right and the Jets made offensive tackle Jason Smith eligible and lined him up to the right with blocking TE Konrad Reuland covering him up. Joe McKnight was the lone back behind Sanchez. Matt Slauson pulled right at the snap as the Jets tried to create a seal and give McKnight the option to run between a Mangold/Ferguson block and Slauson's pull or bounce it around the right side where Reuland was matched up on a linebacker, this time Hightower. McKnight went right and was met thusly by Hightower and Wilfork after gaining one yard. The Patriots then used their first of three timeouts.
The problem: The problem here was again with the blocking. Brandon Spikes blitzed and with Slauson slow to get around, Spikes blew up the play and was in the backfield before McKnight had the ball. Still, Slauson got enough of a block him to allow McKnight to bounce right and try to take it between Brandon Moore and Reuland, but Reuland did a horrendous job and was literally tossed aside by Hightower, negating any chance McKnight had of bouncing the run outside, where Stephen Hill had given McKnight at lest 5-7 yards of running room.
The solution: Have the blocking TE block better? Reuland's inability to hold Hightower at the point of attack single-handedly wrecked the play. While a hobbled McKnight clearly didn't have the burst Sunday we're used to seeing from him, I still believe he could have gained 4-5 yards on the outside if Reuland had kept Hightower at bay. If Greene was healthy, I would have expected them to try to push the ball inside but McKnight's best runs are when he gets in space and can use his speed and athleticism. While you can second guess the Tebow run, this was a good call and played to their running back's strengths and forced the Pats to use a timeout. The execution was lacking but the call was sound.
3rd and 7
The play: Sanchez stayed under center and the Jets kept Reuland in the game, this time lining both him and Keller up on the left side of the line with Keller one step off the line of scrimmage. McKnight was the lone running back and Kerley was in the right slot with Stephen Hill out wide right. The Jets ran a designed playaction bootleg to the right, giving Sanchez a little less than a third of the field. Hill and Kerley ran crossing routed with Hill flattening out his route around the goal line and Kerely pulling a double move and eventually turning right at right around the first-down marker. Keller, who had begun to motion right before the snap, continued to the right flat in front of Sanchez. McKnight rolled left behind much of the blocking, giving Sanchez the option to toss the ball to the side of the field most of the defense had vacated. Keller's motion held up the Pats' outside linebacker (Hightower) and Wilfork long enough for Sanchez to get the ball to his primary target (Kerley), but after a pump fake, Hightower closed on Sanchez. Sanchez ate the ball, took the sack and the Pats used their second timeout.
The problem: While you can have an issue here with the Jets not keeping Sanchez in the pocket and giving him more of the field to work with, Sparano ran a play that Sanchez has been running since his rookie year. Again, Sparano chose a play the Jets tend to execute over and over in a key situation and played to his quarterback's strength (playaction). Despite Alfonzo Dennard in coverage and breaking, Kerley WAS open, but slipped on the second part of his double move, leading to Sanchez hesitating and Hightower closing for the sack. The other problem is Kerley ran too long of a route. A play like that has a very short shelf life. If you're going to leave the outside LB and DE unchecked in order to clear out room, Kerley's route should have been cut short after the cross with Hill. If you watch the tape, you see Dennard hesitate after Hill went over the middle and Kerley went right. Kerley, who had a fantastic game, should have turned to Sanchez right after the two WRs crossed paths. He would have been a yard from the first-down marker, but Dennard's hesitation gave him just enough room to get it after the catch.
The solution: None. It was a smart call and one that put their best WR (Kerley) a chance to be at or around the marker. It also put a rookie CB (Dennard) in a switch situation and gave Kerley enough room to make the marker and the catch. While Sanchez can struggle to throw the ball accurately down the field on the move, he's easily capable of hitting a wideout with 8-15 yards in that situation. If Kerley doesn't fall down, Sanchez hits him and it's either a first down or very close. With Hill and Keller blanketed, Sanchez did the smart thing and didn't force the ball to anyone. He ate it, took the sack and made the Pats use a timeout.
So what should we take from this? In that situation, the Jets had the job of scoring, killing the clock and forcing the Pats to burn timeouts and they did all three of those. Yes, the Jets ran plays of a conservative nature on the drive, but they're all plays that the Jets have run over and over again to a good success rate. On first and second down, Sparano put his players in position to execute a methodical approach that should have put the offense in a third and short situation. When that didn't happen, he went with a playcall that put Sanchez in a comfortable situation with room to throw to a reliable weapon against a rookie cornerback.
If the Jets were going to play for the field goal, they would have lined up McKnight or Hilliard behind Sanchez and run into the line three straight times. Sparano called three plays that attacked different parts of the Pats' defense. Also, while Sanchez did a good job of exposing a terrible secondary most of the day, keep in mind that from the 18 yard line, there are no deep passes. A weak secondary benefits from a limited amount of real estate because they don't have to cover as much ground or cover as long as they do on deep route. You cannot assume that if the Jets had passed the ball more than once that they would have succeeded.
Sparano coached the drive like he would coach any other drive in the situation — he did not coach scared. He put his players in a position to succeed with plays they are comfortable running. It was a sound strategy. The players just didn't execute.

Bella Napoli
Bella Napoli was opened in November 2002 and within four months the place was expanded to create more dining space for customers. The first pizzeria to open on mid Sukhumvit, it has since been joined by numerous other Italian eateries in the area. Taking the BTS and getting off at Phrom Phong station is an ideal way to get there if you don't mind a 9 - 10 minute walk to the restaurant, which is located 50 metres down Soi 31. I suggest it since the parking is very limited on the soi.
Bella Napoli's menu, like most no-nonsense pizzerias, is limited with only pizza, pasta and dessert selections. Nothing fancy here. I noticed that the strangely adorned penna lungha (310 baht) is one of the most ordered items. The crispy thin crust pizza came with the basic sauce of tomato and mozzarella but with feather-thin slices of parma ham hung on three bread stick poles to create a tent shape. Pizzas are not the only must-order items here. The pasta is also worth trying. Bella Napoli's pasta comes in a clay pot covered with pizza bread - the pizzeria's distinctive and smart way to conserve the heat. I had spaghetti misto mare (250 baht), which came with mixed seafood in tomato sauce, and it was delicious. Cream sauce fans will find the spaghetti with battered white snapper and artichoke cream at 250 baht delicious with the pasta perfectly cooked.
The owner was born to a family of ice cream makers and caters to several Bangkok restaurants so don't miss the gelato and sorbetto at 100 baht per two big scoops. Flavors include hazelnut, crocantino, chocolate-orange, tiramisu and chocolate-mint. I recommend crocantino, made with mixed nuts, it is decadent. But if you are in the mood for tangy icy treat, go for the sorbet. Booking a table in advance is recommended but reservations are accepted only for Monday to Friday. Patrons on Saturday & Sunday are treated on a first-come first-serve basis.

(WBBH) -- A new laser treatment is helping sick and wounded pets heal faster and with less pain.
The "K-Laser" bombards cells with energy, helping them heal three times faster.
Veterinarians say it works by increasing circulation, while at the same time fighting inflammation.
THe treatments cost roughly $30 per session, and several sessions are usually needed over the course of three to four weeks.

The flexibility and versatility that the LE-5W Multimedia Projector demonstrates within a myriad of environments and situations is a marvel that is enhanced by its extensive multimedia capabilities. Additionally, this projector does not require a PC or similar device in order to deliver striking images, stunning presentations or brilliant videos!
When on the road, leave your laptop at the office. You won't need it with the LE-5W. Other than the lightweight and highly portable 3.5 lbs (1.6 kg) LE-5W projector that will slip easily into your small suitcase or carrying bag, all that you will need is a power source. That's it. You won't even require a separate lens cap or a power adapter — it has been integrated into the unit to provide users with maximum flexibility and portability.
There's no need to transport a bulky, space-consuming laptop when you are on the go. PC-less projection is enhanced through the use of USB memory sticks and SD cards with the LE-5W. Additionally, the LE-5W supports a wide assortment of image, video and audio file types. Video compatibility includes: AVI, MKV, TS, DAT, VOB, MPG, MPEG, MOV, MP4. Supported audio files include: OGG, AAC, WAV (WAV supports PCM, and AD-PCM). Image and photo compatibility are found with JPEG and BMP.
Do your presentations require the use of Microsoft Word, Excel or PowerPoint documents or perhaps Adobe PDFs and/or text files? The LE-5W has pre-installed support for each of these, without the need for a PC or similar device.
The LE-5W increases its flexibility of use, multimedia capabilities and versatility by featuring 2 GB of internal memory.
Today's increasingly digital world is spread across a variety of devices and files, demanding flexibility and stronger control of how and where one is able to view digital content. Whether your digital content is stored on a mobile device, PC computer, laptop, tablet, camera or portable memory device, such as a USB memory stick or SD card, the LE-5W enables you to project this content onto a much larger screen, high-definition television or even against an office or living room wall for the ultimate in viewing flexibility.

Ocean heat content revisions
In the meantime however, calibrations of the other sources of data against each other were showing some serious discrepancies as well. Ocean temperatures at depth are traditionally made with CTDs (a probe that you lower on line that provides a continuous temperature and salinity profile), Nansen bottles (water samples that are collected from specified depths) or XBTs (eXpendable bathy-thermographs) which are basically just thrown overboard. CTDs are used over and again and can be calibrated continuously to make sure their pressure and temperature measurements are accurate, but XBTs are free falling and the depths from which they are reporting temperatures needs to be estimated from the manufacturers fall rate calculations. As the mix of CTDs, bottles, XBTs and floats has changed over time, minor differences in the bias of each methodology can end up influencing the trends.
(If this is all starting to sound very familiar to those who looked into the surface stations or sea surface temperature record issues, it is because it is the same problem. Almost all long historical climate records were not collected with the goal of climate in mind.)
In particular, analysis (or here) of the XBT data showed that it was biased warm compared to the CTDs, and that this bias changed over time, and was dependent on the kind of XBT used (deep versus shallow). Issues with the fall rate calculation were well known, but corrections were not necessarily being applied appropriately or uniformly and in some cases were not correct themselves. The importance of doing the corrections properly has been subject to some ongoing debate (for instance, contrast the presentations of Levitus and Gourteski at this meeting earlier this year).
So where are we now? The Domingues et al paper that came out yesterday, along with a companion paper from essentially the same group (in press at Journal of Climate) have updated the XBT corrections and dealt with the Argo issues, and….
… show a significant difference from earlier analyses (the new analysis is the black line). In particular, the difficult-to-explain 'hump' in the 1970s has gone (being due to the increase in warm-biased XBTs at that time). The long term trend is slightly higher, while the more recent trends are slightly lower. Interestingly, while there still decadal variability, it is much more obviously tied to volcanic eruptions than was previously the case. Note that this is a 3-year smooth, so the data actually goes to the end of 2004.
So what does this all mean? The first issue is tied to sea level rise. The larger long term trend in ocean warming reported here makes it much easier to reconcile the sea level estimates from thermal expansion with the actual rises. Those estimates do now match. But remember that the second big issue with ocean heat content trends is that they largely reflect the planetary radiative imbalance. This imbalance is also diagnosed in climate models and therefore the comparison serves as an independent check on their overall consistency. Domingues et al show some comparisons with the IPCC AR4 models in their paper. Firstly, they note that OHC trends in the models that didn't use volcanic forcings are consistently higher than the observations. This makes sense of course because each big eruption cools the ocean significantly. For the models that did include volcanic forcings (including the model we used in Hansen et al, 2005, GISS-ER), the match is much better:
(Note that the 3-year smoothed observations are being compared to annual data from the models, the lines have been cut off at 1999, and everything is an anomaly relative to 1961). In particular, the long term (post 1970) observational trends are now a better match to the models, and the response to volcanoes is seen clearly in both. The recent trends are a little lower than reported previously, but are still within the envelope of the model ensemble. One interesting discrepancy is noted however – the models have a slight tendency to mix down the heat more evenly than in the observations.

Detailed Description:
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of infusions of autologous (the patient's own)umbilical cord blood cells in term gestation newborn infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. For this study, infants who have signs of moderate to severe encephalopathy at birth whose mothers have previously consented to providing cord blood cells for the Carolinas Cord Blood Bank or other public or private bank that uses accepted standards for collection and handling of cells, or provided verbal consent for cord blood collection for the possibility of their baby's participation in this trial, can receive their own cord blood cells if an adequate number of cells that meet Carolinas Cord Blood Bank Quality standards are available in the first 14 postnatal days. Study activities also include serial blood draws concurrent with clinically indicated blood draws with a total volume of no more than 5 milliliters (1 teaspoon) from all study related tests. Babies will be followed for neurodevelopmental outcome at 4 - 6 and 9 - 12 months at Duke's Special Infant Care Clinic. MRI's will be obtained per clinical routine and results will be analyzed and described in study reports.

POTSDAM - The challenger in St. Lawrence Countys district attorneys race launched her Accountability Tour Thursday evening in Potsdam, and began it with a bang.
In her news conference outside of the Potsdam Civic Center, Ms. Rain spoke in front of half a dozen supporters sporting campaign signs.
Republican candidate Mary E. Rain charged incumbent St. Lawrence County District Attorney Nicole M. Duve had made hundreds of mistakesduring her tenure as the countys lead prosecutor. She displayed a heavy book she said was filled with cases that had been dismissed during Ms. Duves eight-year tenure as district attorney. If youd had enough, vote Rain, she said.
(Duve) has let go so many felony offenders that it affects justice here in St. Lawrence County, and its one of the big reasons that Im running. Had enough? Ive had enough. Thats why Im running and thats why I have supporters here today, Ms. Rain said.
We had a case here in Potsdam where a young lady was raped. The criminal was charged with rape in the first-degree, its a B violent felony. That person could have faced up to 25 years in state prison. It was plea bargained down to a misdemeanor, a misdemeanor where the man got a $250 fine. Theres something wrong with that picture.
Ms. Rain also spoke of a rape case where the victim was 14 years old, and Ms. Duve filed a motion to concur with the defenses motion seeking to dismiss the charges. She added that the incumbent claimed that police had not given her the paperwork, while police had proof of providing paperwork to her.
It marked Ms. Rains second full fledged assault on the incumbents record in the past two weeks. Speaking on the front steps of the St. Lawrence County Courthouse last week, she charged Ms. Duves incompetence, ineffectiveness and disorganization in her office had created an opportunity for violent felony offenders to walk the streets without any consequences.
Ms. Rain said last week she wants to fast-track felonies, upgrade technology to improve results and improve inter-agency cooperation. She said she would ensure timely prosecutions by seeking the earliest possible court proceeding for all felony crimes, which she called the biggest problem of Ms. Duves administration.
Ms. Rains news conference in Potsdam Thursday night drew the attention of Stephen M. Whelley. Mr. Whelley is the father of Donald James Ware Whelley, a 21-year-old Clarkson University sophomore lacrosse player who was allegedly brutally attacked by two men in the early morning hours of Aug. 24.
My biggest concern is that as this thing moves forward, my case in particular, I just noticed the lack of resources and not that its been a lack of activity, but resources, which is a common theme in a lot of counties, that hampers the position, Mr. Whelley said.
He stressed his attendance at the event was not an endorsement. Im more concerned, as you (Rain) are, to discourage violence, and I want hear what you have to say about it. Again, Im not voting one way or the other, but I have a great deal of respect for the position you seek, he told the district attorney candidate.
Ms. Rain has said she has three decades of experience as a police officer, prosecutor and defense attorney. She also served briefly as St. Lawrence Countys chief public defender four years ago.
As the challenger talked to supporters and others, she clutched a large book filled with paperwork from dismissed cases that she claims were not handled properly.
This book is her book of shame. These are cases that have been dismissed that have been reported to you. But I have a bigger notebook of all the cases that have been dismissed via motions because of speedy trial issues where shes failed to prosecute. Where she has gotten dismissals because of bad grand jury indictments, Ms. Rain said.
Again, grand jury is such an easy way for a prosecutor to get an indictment, and she has failed hundreds of times. In over 10 years of prosecutorial experience, I have had zero indictments dismissed. Its a rarity, but not in this office.
In response, Ms. Duve said that her opponent was making broad accusations without having facts. Hundreds of times sounds very exaggerated. Without specifics, her words are meaningless, she added.
Ms. Rain said that she plans to visit every region in the county during her tour, discussing relevant cases with the public. She plans to highlight the injustices that have occurred.
When asked about the proposition of a debate, Ms. Rain said she would love to, while Ms. Duve said she would have no problem with it.
Voting for the district attorney position will take place on Nov. 5.

Coaching: Keys to Improved Results
As the cost and challenge of recruitment increases, companies recognize the need to develop their existing employees and managers. Professionalism, skill and behavior development through either internal 'coaches' or outside experts in trained in coaching skills has proven very effective for many companies and people. To meet the growing need for coaches by and within companies but also from individual employees, consultants, business owners and entrepreneurs, the number and types of coaching has grown quickly.

Canadian consortium builds pilot plant to grow algal biomass using oil sands CO2 emissions
May 20, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez
The government of Canada will invest in technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in oil sands by converting carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions into commercial products, the National Research Council Canada (NRC; Ottawa) says. The three-year Algal Carbon Conversion project will use algae to recycle industrial CO2 emissions from an oil sands facility into commercial products such as biofuels. The CO2 will be used to grow algal biomass, which will undergo further processing into products such as biofuels, livestock feed, and fertilizer. The project, a partnership...

Retaining the impressive optical performance and large aperture of the original EF 85mm f/1.2L USM, this new medium telephoto lens uses a Ring-type USM, high-speed CPU and optimized algorithms to achieve an autofocus speed approximately 1.8x faster than the original. The high-speed AF and circular aperture create a shallow depth-of-field that brings attention to the subject and blurs the background, which is ideal for portraits and weddings. The floating optical system, which includes an aspherical lens element, suppresses aberrations and ensures excellent imaging performance.

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
PHPC-02 is a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to investigate whether therapeutic immunization during highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) induces elevations of HIV-specific T cell precursors with high proliferative capacity (PHPC) in HIV-1-infected individuals, and whether the quantity of PHPC correlates with the viral load set point following analytical treatment interruption (ATI). Subjects will be randomized to receive either DermaVir Patch (8 subjects per cohort) or DermaVir Patch Placebo (8 subjects per cohort) every four weeks for three applications while receiving maximally suppressive HAART. HAART will be discontinued at Week 9 for an ATI period of 20 weeks.
