Asperger's Syndrome: A Guide for Parents and Professionals
By Tony AttwoodReview by Brenda Bickel and Donna Soule, NAMI Literature Committee
Asperger's Syndrome: A Guide for Parents and Professionals
by Tony Attwood
(Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 1998. 223 pages. Paperback: $19)
The slimness of this 185-page book certainly does not reflect the amount of the author's knowledge and experience as much as it reflects the current lack of knowledge, in general, about the rarely occurring Asperger's syndrome (AS). Tony Attwood is a psychologist who has specialized in this area for more than 25 years and has met more than 1,000 persons with the AS diagnosis, from preschoolers to a retired professor who was awarded the Nobel Prize.
Lorna Wing was the first to use the term Asperger's syndrome in a paper published in 1981. The term was not accepted internationally until the early 1980s, although Hans Asperger originally described the disorder in 1944.
The current prevailing view is that AS is a variant of autism and a pervasive developmental disorder (PDD). The condition affects the development of a wide range of abilities. It is now considered a subgroup within the autistic spectrum and has its own diagnostic criteria. Evidence also suggests that it is far more common than classic autism and may be diagnosed in children who have never previously been considered autistic. Asperger's typical pattern of behavior and diminished abilities is most conspicuous during the primary school years, at about the mean age of eight years.
Wing, who provided the foreword and is referred to frequently in the book, describes the primary clinical features of AS as:
- lack of empathy
- naive, inappropriate, one-sided interactions
- little or no ability to form friendships
- pedantic, repetitive speech
- poor non-verbal communication
- intense absorption in certain subjects
- clumsy and ill-coordinated movements and odd postures
Simply put, the core features of this syndrome are lack of social skills, a limited ability to have a reciprocal conversation, and an intense interest in a particular subject.
Asperger's Syndrome provides much helpful information about the characteristics of this disorder and strategies for learning skills acquired so easily by others, but with much difficulty by the person with AS. It is an excellent guide that does not rely on scientific terminology for explanations. Chapters on social behavior, language, interests, routines, physical clumsiness, cognition, and sensory sensitivity are written in very basic language, yet they are quite detailed and informative. Each chapter includes a brief and handy summary of strategies both parents and teachers will find helpful when dealing with children with this disorder.
Note that an entire chapter contains responses to two dozen questions and issues most frequently raised by parents, such as what causes the syndrome, how to prevent or manage anxiety and depression, needed resources, and the long-term outlook. Keeping in mind that scientists only began consistently diagnosing and investigating this syndrome during the mid-1980s, it's not surprising that current knowledge is limited. Yet Attwood provides considerable information to help correct misconceptions, and he offers concrete suggestions for specific problems. Many parents have already discovered and been led by this excellent guide, rate it a clinical "bible," and consider the author a leading authority on Asperger's.
Appendices contain resource material about emotions and friendships, a training chart, diagnostic criteria, extensive references (155), and subject and author indexes. One reviewer noted the need for additional information on medication and on coexisting conditions.

Every month we consider a number of catwalk-and-campaign stars for our Model Off Duty story, a process that is invariably delightful and often illuminating. Though we're always well acquainted with their fabulous faces and willowy frames due to their appearances in fashion editorials and runway shows, we're often relatively unfamiliar with their personal style. Perhaps that's why we find these off-the-clock outfits so interesting to examine; we think there's something fundamentally intriguing about seeing these chameleon-like ladies when they're not done up to look like someone else's muse, but rather dressed as themselves. On that note, today we're turning the spotlight on one of the world's most in-demand modelsÂ--Raquel ZimmermannÂ--to discuss what she wears on her own time.
Surely you've seen this Brazillian dynamo before, as she's been snagging magazine covers and working with the best brands for over a decade now (which is centuries in model-time). Zimmermann's career is nothing short of astonishing; in fact, she's claimed more campaigns for the upcoming F/W 09 season than any of her peers: Gucci, Jean Paul Gaultier, Giorgio Armani, Hermes, Viktor & Rolf fragrance, and Shiseido Future SolutionÂ--and it's not yet August! But no matter how well-versed you are in her work triumphs, Zimmermann's off-duty style is a bit more mysterious. After much studying, weÂ're starting to understand how our MOD puts herself together and what kinds of pieces she favors. As you can see from the images above, Zimmermann clearly has an affinity for a few things: skinny jeans, simple t-shirts, and superb outerwear. Using these three easy-to-find items, she creates an assortment of ensembles, all of which you can easily emulate at home!
If you prefer a more minimalist ensemble, try the pared-down outfit Zimmermann opted for backstage at Christopher Kane's S/S 09 show (far left). To create a similar look, we'd start with Genetic Denim's Shane Recessive Cigarette Jeans ($198). They're wildly figure-flattering and will give you that long lean line à la Zimmermann. Simply add a gray t-shirt with a high-neckline, like LnA's Short Sleeve Crew ($60) in Ash, a cropped black bomber jacket, such as ASOS' Premium Curved Seam Leather Bomber ($156) or S.W.O.R.D.'s Ardea Leather Jacket ($803), and your favorite black leather belt.
Occasionally Zimmermann strays from her ultra-basic t-shirts and sneaks a graphic print into her rotation. Of course, due to her insider status, the tees are usually highly covetable designer versions, such as the limited edition Stella McCartney shirt she wore with a short-sleeve cardigan and black acid wash jeans to McCartney's F/W 09 show (second from left). The ace of hearts-plus-Eiffel Tower top was created to celebrate the opening of McCartney's Paris boutiqueÂ--so it's nearly impossible to track downÂ--but you can layer your favorite tee with a chunky knit sweater, like IRO's Gali Cardigan ($155), for a similar effect.
An interesting t-shirt also made the grade at Chloe's S/S 09 show, when Zimmermann combined a black-and-gray McQ shirt with her beloved skinnies and a lively black-and-gold jacket. That day, the Brazilian model also showed off her favorite footwear: Fiorentini + Baker's Eli Boots ($485). These understated single-buckle boots could be considered her go-to piece, as she seems to live in them during the various Fashion Weeks. Though Zimmermann's exact shirt is no longer available, if you're dying for something from the same brand, check out the McQ Military Shirt ($170) or McQ Admiral jersey T-shirt ($160). Otherwise, something like Truly Madly Deeply's Birds Trees Slub V Neck ($28) will give you a similar vibe, especially when worn under a shaggy statement jacket, like Vena Cava's Vitality Jacket ($805) or Topshop's Mongolian Jacket ($370).
While we love the bold choice of a striped bomber-style jacket, of all of Zimmermann's outerwear picks, our favorite is a slightly more subtle selection. Specifically, we're crazy about the semi-vintage Balenciaga gray moto she wore backstage at Lanvin's F/W 09 show. The slouchy style is from Balenciaga's highly touted F/W 04 collectionÂ--hence our title of semi-vintageÂ--and it looks just as fresh today as it did five years ago. It adds a little structure and formality to her hip-length cardigan and gray burnout t-shirt (the feathered headpiece brings the fancy too). While we've yet to find the perfect substitute for the Balenciaga original, Silence & Noise's Suede Bomber ($98) in Reagan Gray works for now, especially when worn with Alternative Apparel's Burnout Top ($22) and a striped cardi.
Before we close, we must address at least one of Zimmermann's evening ensembles, in this case the stunning Proenza Schouler Off-the-Shoulder Textured Dress she wore to the Met Gala (far right). While this exact dress was custom created just for our MOD, you can get a hint of the look with the label's Off-The-Shoulder-Textured Top ($1875) and with their Patent Booties ($1360), which will arrive at Barneys shortly. Otherwise we suggest getting your body-con fix with something like Alexander Wang's Long Sleeve Fitted Dress ($490)Â--it's the perfect piece to ensure supermodel-style status!

Farm Bill
/ Watershed Rehabilitation Program (Rehab)
Loading Tree...
Local communities, with NRCS assistance, have constructed over 11,800 dams in 47 states since 1948. Many of these dams are nearing the end of their 50-year design life. Rehabilitation of these dams is needed to address critical public health and safety issues in these communities. The following information provides background and case studies of rehabilitation needs of watershed dams across the nation as well as progress toward rehabilitation accomplishments.
Latest News
USDA recently launched DamWatch, a new web-based application that provides real-time monitoring of rainfall, snowmelt, stream flow and seismic events that could pose potential threats to dam safety. Learn more.
USDA is investing $73 million to rehabilitate dams across the nation in an effort to protect public health and safety and evaluate the expansion of water supply in drought stricken areas. USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is investing in approximately 150 projects and assessments in 23 states.
FY 2015 Watershed Rehabilitation Projects Funding Table
With this new level of funding, the agency can now fund the implementation and completion of a project wholly and holistically as one which constitutes, planning, design and construction.
From 1998 through 2015, approximately 4,300 inventory dams reached or exceeded their 50 year design life. The estimated cost to rehabilitate these dams at today's cost is nearly $19 Billion. Many of the high hazard dams are located above areas with substantial populations as high as 21,000 people at risk for potential loss of life.
In addition to dam rehabilitation assistance, NRCS sustains a robust dam safety program. Currently, NRCS is developing geospatial dam monitoring tools to help with dam safety. NRCS GeoObserver for Dams will help NRCS engineers keep up-to-date information for the National Inventory of Dams. NRCS DamWatch will provide NRCS engineers and project sponsors with web-based monitoring of dams during rainfall, snowmelt, or seismic events.
Benefits of Watershed Rehabilitation
Dams provide benefits in water supply, irrigation, flood control, improving water quality, sediment control and energy, and this money will help ensure their stability for future generations.
In addition, these projects will enhance job creation in their local communities.
Watershed projects across the nation provide an estimated $2.2 billion in annual benefits in reduced flooding and erosion damages, and improved recreation, water supplies and wildlife habitat for an estimated 47 million Americans.
Watershed Rehabilitation and Drought
Last year, NRCS made changes to the watershed rehabilitation program to allow for projects that helped increase water supply. Half of this year's dam assessments, including 15 in drought stricken California, will assess the feasibility of using watershed rehabilitation funds to mitigate drought.
Over 80 projects in the Planning stage can consider increasing water storage capacity when the dam is being rehabilitated, thereby bolstering resilience to climate change for their local communities. Planning of these projects also sets the stage for Design and Construction, projected to protect the lives and property of more than 119,000 people.
NRCS and Project Sponsors
This funding approach serves both sponsors and government interests. Sponsors are able to budget their finances to begin and complete the project, and the agency is able to report accomplishments and yield greater returns on investments since delaying and extending the implementation of a project costs both the agency and the sponsor financial resources.
A watershed plan is developed for each project that includes environmental impacts, costs and benefits, planned conservation practices and the responsibilities of involved parties. A variety of agencies and organizations can assist local project sponsors in plan development.
Watershed project sponsors represent local interest in federally assisted watershed projects. Sponsors request assistance from the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and enter into agreements based upon a watershed plan.
The NRCS provides technical and financial assistance to watershed project sponsors in the planning and installation of flood control and other conservation measures in approved watershed projects.
Project sponsors agree to carry out specific parts of the project and are responsible for such things as:
On average, sponsors complete the rehabilitation of 11 dams per year. The average cost to rehabilitate a structure at today's costs is approximately $4.4 million each which includes planning, design, and construction. NRCS anticipates this cost to increase in the coming years and estimates the cost to rehabilitate a dam to climb to $8.82 million each in five (5) years (2019).
The combined funding requests received from sponsors this year totals more than $498M dollars, a significant increase in funding request from prior years which average around $35M. Of all the requests received this year from the states, more than 150 projects will be funded through the Farm Bill.
We attribute the sponsor's increased response in submitting project funding requests to the higher level of Farm Bill funding and NRCS commitment to fund projects holistically as one project for planning, design and construction.
The 2014 Farm Bill made about $262 million available for rehabilitation of 151 dams in 26 states. These watershed management projects provide an estimated $2.2 billion in annual benefits in reduced flooding and erosion damages, recreation, water supplies and wildlife habitat for roughly 47 million people. Projects were identified based on recent rehabilitation investments and the risks to life and property if a dam failure occurred.
FY 2014 Watershed Rehabilitation Projects Funding Table (PDF, 220 KB)
"Federal, state, and local dignitaries gathered at Perry Lake in Perry, Oklahoma to announce the upcoming national watershed rehabilitation program. This program, part of the 2014 Federal Farm Bill, will fund the rehabilitation and repair of watershed dams throughout the nation.
The dam at Perry Lake was chosen as the site to make this national announcement because it is one of the first structures that will be rehabilitated as part of this program. It is part of the Upper Black Bear Creek Watershed system and helps to protect the City of Perry and Interstate 35 from potential flood events." – City of Perry, Oklahoma

|Furman Stuns ASU with Ninth-Inning Rally
|Written by Mike Flynn
|Friday, 08 April 2011 23:07
Furman's three-run rally in the bottom of the ninth inning dealt Appalachian State University baseball a heartbreaking 3-2 loss on Friday evening at Latham Stadium.Appalachian (16-15, 4-9 SoCon) snapped a scoreless tie with two runs in the top of the eighth inning but closer Taylor Miller (Raleigh, N.C./Wakefield) couldn't retire any of the six batters he faced in the bottom of the ninth and Furman (16-15, 7-3 SoCon) walked off with the stunning victory.
Furman's ninth-inning comeback ruined a third-straight stellar start on the mound by ASU right-hander Ryan Arrowood (Rutherfordton, N.C./Central). The junior surrendered just five hits and struck out nine over 6.2 scoreless innings, upping his strikeout total over his last three starts to 29.
Arrowood gave way to lefty Will Helms (Charlotte, N.C./Providence) after the Mountaineers' committed their third error of the game to put the go-ahead run on base with two outs in the seventh and Helms preserved the 0-0 score by striking out FU's Alex Abrams to end the inning.
Appalachian then exorcised its two-out demons in the top of the eighth by scoring two runs with two away to take a 2-0 lead. Freshman Lawrence Pardo (Miami, Fla./Christopher Columbus) got the two-out rally going by fouling off seven pitches to draw an 11-pitch walk. Hector Crespo (Miami, Fla./Florida Christian) then drove the very next pitch through the left side of the infield to put runners on first and second and Trey Holmes followed with an RBI single up the middle that brought pinch-runner Will Callaway (Greenville, S.C./Eastside) home with the first run of the ballgame. One batter later, Crespo scored on a wild pitch to stretch the Mountaineer advantage to 2-0.
The two-out rally was especially noteworthy for ASU due to the fact that the Mountaineers came into the evening hitting just .215 on the season with two outs.
Mountaineer right-hander David Port (Dunwoody, Ga./Dunwoody) worked around two singles to preserve the 2-0 lead in the bottom of the eighth but Miller wasn't as fortunate in the ninth. After allowing consecutive singles to lead off the inning, Miller hit FU's Will Miller to load the bases. Abrams then avenged the strikeout in the seventh with a two-run single to left center that knotted the score at 2-2. ASU intentionally walked Will Muzika to load the bases but Paul Nitto followed with a game-winning single to right center field.
Making the ninth-inning collapse even more frustrating was that all four Paladin hits came with two strikes. The setback marked only the second time in the past 160 games that ASU lost a contest it led after eight innings.
Crespo registered two of the Mountaineers' five hits in the losing effort.
Appalachian will look to bounce back on Saturday when it plays the second game of the three-game weekend series at Furman. First pitch is set for 4 p.m.

Paul Hembree played tennis for Lipscomb from 1939-1941. At the proud age of 89, he has the honor of being one of Lipscomb's oldest athletes. Paul first arrived at David Lipscomb Campus School in 1935 as a 6th grader. He later played tennis, basketball and was the star quarterback on the final high school football team that disbanded in 1938 because of a shortage of players. Besides athletics, Paul also has a love for music and arts. He was a member of the Lipscomb Glee Club and an avid photographer who, as a student, took the class portraits for the 1940 and 1941 Lipscomb Backlogs.
Paul is also a gifted artist who continues to paint and share his talents with his family and friends. Paul is a loyal supporter of Lipscomb Athletics and a long-time member of the National Bison Club. Retired and living in Brentwood, Paul recently visited with Andy Lane, Executive Director of the National Bison Club to reminisce about his athletic days at Lipscomb.
"I was married to the former Josephine (Joey) Kirk for nearly 60 years. She passed away in 2006. We have two beautiful daughters, Paula (Frisby) and Susan (Shumaker), six grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, and two more on the way."

How to Avoid Getting Sick from Your Guy
Jennifer Landa, MD, author of The Sex Drive Solution for Women, says that sleeping naked can be healthier for your vagina. While it's totally normal to have yeast and bacteria down there, the warm environment can sometimes cause an overgrowth. One way to prevent infections is to "air it out" and go commando.
While you might like being cozy and warm at night, it's actually important to have a cooler environment when you sleep, says Lisa Shives, MD, who sits on the National Sleep Foundation's board of directors. "Your body temp progressively declines as you sleep, which is a natural tendency of the body, so being too warm with heavy PJs and blankets can disrupt that." Sleeping naked, she says, can help your body stay cool.

|Study finds Superbug could strike 5 percent of hospital patients
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Wednesday, 04 July 2007 18:32
A report released earlier this week suggests as many
as 5 percent of hospital and nursing home patients may become infected with a
dangerous, drug-resistant staph germ.
The superbug may afflict 30,000 U.S. hospital patients at any given time, the survey, released by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, suggests. This estimate is approximately 10 times previous estimates by some health officials. The superbug at issue is called Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and it cannot be controlled by common antibiotics. It can cause skin infections, blood infections, pneumonia and other illnesses. The germ is spread by touch and thrives in healthcare settings where open wounds are prevalent.

It's been known for years that the brains of many organisms incorporate a 'circadian clock,' a biological
timekeeping mechanism that connects the body's rhythms to external light levels. The clock helps the body sync with
changing daylight conditions -- a trick that can be used in conjunction with exposure to bright lights to help
readjust the body's internal clocks to combat jet lag. Writing this week in the journal Science, researchers report
that mice seem to have a second, independent circadian clock that connects to food consumption -- and it can overrule the regular light-based clock.
The food-synced clock, the researchers believe, could be used in nature to help animals adjust to hard times. "This new timepiece enables animals to switch their sleep and wake schedules in order to maximize their opportunity of finding food," explained Clifford Saper, one of the authors of the report. We'll talk him about the find, and what significance it might have for people.

This coat is exactly as pictured. I got it in tall black. I am 5'10 and it hits me about where it hits the model. The pockets are sewn shut and it has a split in the back (sewn together at the bottom but easily alterable). It is a traditional A line shape that is true to size. I wear a size 18 and would normally size up for a coat but followed my instincts and didn't in this case. I ordered this in my size and can actually button it if I want. Its nice to finally have a coat that isn't too big because I had to size up to make room for my boobs. If your tall and curvy and looking for a coat in this style that fits without looking too big, get this coat.

Very Happy
Received my coat today and I am very happy with it, the fit, the color, the material. Thank you.
Orlando, Fl
Lovely coat!
The coat feels very warm, it looks expensive, it is made nicely with great material... And the best thing of all is I got it for less than $50 on clearance sale. The only colors available on clearance was the garnet, I guess not a lot of people would rock that color that's why it was on sale. I'm still waiting for the other colors to go on sale. I'm 5'2 and weigh 125 lbs, got the size 4 misses. This was a great purchase! Go ahead and buy one for yourself too! :)

elegant coat
Love this camel coat - I also have one in white. It is nice to know I can count on a tall and extra length fashion that is not also oversized. This is tall, long and sleek and perfect for me.

Great Buy
This was my first purchase from Metrostyle, and I am pleased. Luv the length of the coat on my tall frame! The black coat is very elegant, and the fit is flattering (I am 5'11", size 6/8 (slender up top, but a thick derriere & thighs below) and ordered the 8. The coat is not bulky even though I purchased the larger size 8. It can be dressed up or down. It's warm enough where I can wear a skirt & tall boots in the 30 degree weather of Philadelphia, and still remain warm. This is a very soft, "flowy", wool blend, almost like a heavy weight fleece (yet not unattractive like fleece coats tend to be), and although I was expecting a thicker, firmer wool blend, the cost is still nice. In terms of arm length, I was expecting the arms to be a little longer and it stops just at my wrists. I decided to leave my pockets sewn shut so there is no gaping at my curvy hips. I'm having fun accessorizing this coat with my many hats, scarves, shoes, and purses! (Side note...Telephone customer se

Long Wool-blend Coat
I love my coats. I first bought the winter white one and liked it so much, I decided to get the black one.The quality, price, and look are outstanding. If the coat is offered in different colors next year, I will purchase again.
Very disappointed
I am so disappointed! After reading all of the wonderful reviews I purchased this coat in Camel. The color is horrible. It's more of a mustard color than camel. The fit was not flattering at all. I have purchased many items from Metrostyle in the past and have always been very pleased, but this coat will be going back for a full refund!
atlanta, georgia
Love it!!!
I'm so happy the black is back in stock. I waited all year for it. I ordered the winter white one last year. It's so classy and comfortable. Love this coat!!! :)

I have been through the pain clinics at UC Davis and Kaiser. I never got the pain relief from them that I get from Dr. Conard. He was the first doc to advise me of an alternative to medications or with them. He implanted a nuero stimulator, it has been the best move that I've ever made. Since the implant I am getting better pain relief along with my occasional epidural injections to go along with the stimulator. I totally trust in this man as a doctor and I hope that he can still remain as my doc for as long as he can still practice medicine. Thank you very much for you and your staffs wonderful care Dr. Conard. Your very grateful patient, Doug Cyr.

A marvel of comfort and security, Lazer's sculpted Helium helmet may share appearances with the Genesis, but it actually incorporates an in-molded shell portion around the interior of the helmet's brow. Basically, this is an added safety detail that prevents the helmet from failure and also helps protect fragile foam from damage in a gear bag.
For improved crash protection, the Helium uses a woven composite, called silver carbon, that spans between the main ribs. Lazer calls it RBS (Rigidity Brace System) and it adds some serious strength to the design. To offset additional material, the Helium uses dual-density EPS foam that allows not only less heft, but 19 huge vents, too.
Because of this, airflow won't be a problem on hot days. Additionally, the helmet pads are made with X-Static, a fabric with antimicrobial, silver-treated threads to prevent a stinky helmet. The Helium benefits from Lazer's Rollsys retention system, which is a wheel tucked into the top of the helmet to take up slack in the cradle system. The Rollsys system creates one of the most even fits of any helmet on the market.
The cradle at the back of the head drops securely beneath your occipital bump, and since the wheel for the retention system is at the top and not in the back, there's room for ponytails.
The Lazer Helium Helmet is available in the sizes Small, Medium, and Large, and it comes in six colors.

Beware of old stock!!!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I just got my "new" Helium today. Problem is, the helmet was manufactured in 2010. It's a 5 year old helmet. Selling a helmet of this age should be disclosed to the consumer prior to them purchasing it. Competitive Cyclist offered to refund my money because they don't have any more in my size. I don't want a refund, just a new (not old stock) helmet.
Not real happy
I first bought the medium, because my head size was at the limit of the M size helmet. It was very uncomfortable with lots of pressure points etc. So I returned it and bought a large. The large is too big and looks goofy. I can live with it because it can cinch down on my head, but I am finding it to have a lot of pressure points also. I would return it, but I already cut the super long chin strap. I have since purchased a Kask Veritgo, and find it to be the most comfortable helmet I have ever worn.

I'm a Sweater
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I really like the updates to the Helium. I've worn all of the top helmets from Bell, Giro, POC, and Lazer. I sweat quite a bit, so the gel pad in front is a nice change that helps move that sweat out of my eyes.
The retention system update is nice as well. It allows you to position the rear strap in the correct place to feel most secure. You can tell it is there, but it is still very comfortable. I like the Rollsys system being up top and easy to reach.
The one drawback for me is not having a place to put sunglasses. It doesn't have your standard glass garage, but you can make it work.
All-in-all this is one of my favorite helmets. The updates are noticeable and appreciated.

Good not great
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I'm simple when it comes to bike equipment. I just like things that work. if I don't have to think about it, then to me, its a good piece of equipment. I had to think way too much about the Lazer Helium on my head.
I've been in the Lazer Helium on the road and trail for about a month now and have had it in a variety of conditions. While the bucket looks good and it relatively light, there are some drawbacks to consider.
The Rollsys retention system is good and out of the way and the overall fit was comfy. The lid looks good too. I also like that I can't see the helmet above my brow.
While its decently lightweight, its not near light enough to warrant a name like "helium". Its not heavy but its no feather.
But the main drawbacks for me have to do with ventilation and sweat management. I find myself constantly feeling overheated in the Helium. Low speed climbs turned my head into a furnace. To compound the overheating, the super comfy gel forehead pad doesn't absorb any sweat. So not only am I hot, I have sweat running down my face until I can go fast enough to cool off.
So if you're in a cooler climate most of the time and want a good looking lid, this may work for you. But if you need good ventilation and don't want sweat dripping down your face, there are some better options on the website.

first helmet not a giro or bell
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I tried out this helmet for a couple weeks and also had a family member try it as well to hopefully give a little more insight. Really both of us have the same comments or opinion so here it is. I thought the fit was very nice, one of the better fits due to the type of retention system. The pad on the front is a gel which was a nice change from the padding that comes on every other helmet out there. I put it up with some of the better helmets I've worn, maybe not the best but definitely up there. The other opinion was it was the best helmet he had worn to date. I would not quite put it at the level of the atmos or octal but a very well done lid none the less.
Chris M.
Great Helmet
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Very light helmet; it does not move on my head at all and is very comfortable. I don't even know that I am wearing a helmet while I'm riding.

CANTON The two teenagers who caused a lockdown at Colton-Pierrepont Central School in March by displaying a rifle from a car window were sentenced Monday in St. Lawrence County Court.
Sawyer M. Pignona, 17, of 96 Postwood Road, Hannawa Falls, and Connor I. Warden, 17, of 19 Sisson St., Potsdam, were sentenced to one year of interim probation for criminal possession of a weapon on school grounds, a class E felony. Mr. Pignona also was charged with second-degree menacing, a class A misdemeanor. Both pleaded guilty to the charges after an agreement reached July 9 between their attorneys, school officials and District Attorney Nicole M. Duve.
Mr. Warden told state police that he drove Mr. Pignona to Colton-Pierrepont about 3:50 p.m. March 18. Once there, Mr. Pignona brandished the weapon from a car window, sending the school into lockdown.
On Monday, County Judge Jerome J. Richards told the teens that their one-year term would include community service in the form of a 25- to 30-minute presentation to be given at all consenting school s in St. Lawrence County. That is reduced from the one hour agreed upon in the plea deal.
The presentation is expected to include a discussion of the incident, the consequences, impact on others and the community, role of social media and lessons learned. For every school district that chooses not to participate, 25 hours of community service will be imposed, with priority to be given to the Colton community.
Both teens, who are students at Potsdam High School, also have a no-contact order of protection against them requiring them not to come within 1,000 feet of Colton-Pierrepont Central School unless given specific instructions stating otherwise from Colton-Pierrepont Superintendent Joseph A. Kardash.
If Mr. Pignona and Mr. Warden successfully complete their interim probation, they will have their felony pleas vacated in exchange for a misdemeanor and a sentence of three years probation. Mr. Pignona still will have his misdemeanor menacing charge against him.
Because of their age, they also may be considered for youthful offender status at the discretion of the court.
Final sentencing has been scheduled for Sept. 15, 2014.

Churchill High School's Wrestling Team made their mark on the Oregon State Wrestling Championship held February 25-26 at the Portland Memorial Colliseum. With a decorated group of 13 wrestlers, all placing in their Regional Finals, the wrestlers were lead by six Regional Champions; Housten Ezel-125 lbs, Joe Potts-139 lbs, DJ Ishihara-135 lbs, David Tena-145 lbs, Chase Kearney-152 lbs, and Zac Brunson-160 lbs. The wrestlers were up each morning at 5:00 a.m. and headed out for weigh-ins for the days action. Wrestling started at 8:00 a.m. and lasted as late as 10:00 p.m. and back to the hotel to rest up for the next morning. Two Churchill Wrestlers would reach the pennacle of their season by becoming State Champions in their respective classes. Chase Kearney (154 lbs) was the first Champion of the night winning by decision over a grappler from Hermiston and in the very next bout, Zac Brunson (160 lbs), now a three time State Champion, claimed his prize beating his opponent from West Albany. Also earning honors for Churchill were Housten Ezell (125 lbs), a two time state finalist, 2nd in state and Joe Pots (130 lbs), a three time medalist at 3rd in state all three years. The remaining eight state participants were Jorrin Ishihara (103 lbs), Hunter Goguen (125 lbs), DJ Ishihara (135 lbs), Max Thomas (135 lbs), Aaron Bordeaux (140 lbs), Dave Tena (145 lbs), Trevor Davis (171 lbs), Graham Bellerby (215 lbs) and Will Dawson (285 lbs). Churchill only looses two seniors for next season and will seek to repeat as League and Regional Champions in 2012.

BOSTON – The Red Sox have already seen St. Louis rookie sensation Michael Wacha once in this World Series. The question heading into Wednesday night's Game 6 rematch is whether the Boston hitters will be better equipped to handle the Cardinals player who stands between them and a championship.
"I don't know that our approach will change. The one thing that will clearly be different is at least some familiarity," said Red Sox manager John Farrell prior to Game 6. "You can watch all the video and read all the scouting reports you want, but until a guy stands in the box and see the flight of the baseball and feels the velocity and feels the action to that change-up, that's the best information they can have as they step in here."
Other than allowing a two-run home run to David Ortiz in the sixth inning of Game 2, the 22-year-old Wacha silenced the Red Sox to the tune of two runs on three hits in six innings. Such dominance has been a regular occurrence during the postseason, as Wacha took a 4-0 mark and a 1.00 ERA into Wednesday's must-win contest for the Cardinals.
"We all knew going into his last start that he had great stuff. We watched video and seen what's done so far in the playoffs," said second baseman Dustin Pedroia. "We're trying to make adjustments pitch by pitch because we haven't seen him, and that part can be hard when he has overpowering stuff.
"Hopefully this time around we have better at-bats than last time and to make our adjustments quicker," added Pedroia.
The Red Sox did make some noticeable changes to the lineup, though none of them had to do with who was on the mound for the Cardinals. Farrell opted to move Shane Victorino to the sixth spot – the outfielder will see his first game action since Saturday night – while moving Pedroia to the No. 2 spot.
The Red Sox lineup looks like this: 1. Jacoby Ellsbury CF; 2. Dustin Pedroia 2B: 3. David Ortiz DH; 4. Mike Napoli 1B; 5. Jonny Gomes; 6. Shane Victorino RF; 7. Xander Bogaerts 3B; 8. Stephen Drew SS; 9. David Ross C. Starting pitcher: John Lackey.
St. Louis lineup: 1. Matt Carpenter 2B; 2. Carlos Beltran RF; 3. Matt Holliday; 4. Allen Craig DH; 5. Yadier Molina; 6. Matt Adams; 7. David Freese 3B; 8. Jon Jay CF; 9. Daniel Descalso SS; Starting pitcher: Michael Wacha
No Red Sox fan wants to hear about talk of a possible seventh and deciding game, which would take place Thursday night at Fenway. Still, there has to be a backup plan just in case such a scenario turns into reality.
To that end, Farrell announced that Jake Peavy would start Game 7 for Boston. Jon Lester would also be available to pitch.
"And everybody else is available in the bullpen," Farrell stated.

Texas Congressman Ron Paul was interviewed Tuesday on Fox Radio's Tom Sullivan Show and took the opportunity to restate his position that the naked body scans and enhanced pat-downs by employees of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) are unconstitutional. He declared that the TSA is "invasive, unnecessary, and ineffective," and said it should be replaced by private security forces.
The Blaze notes that Paul "rejected the underlying premise of the TSA wholesale — that federal bureaucrats will keep us safer than private enterprises with direct interest in the safety (and satisfaction) of their customers."
Paul observed that those at the TSA who are performing the enhanced pat-downs are not "the most reputable people." He also noted the double standard concerning behavior by the TSA which is considered acceptable, commenting, "We would be arrested if we did this."

NORTH SMITHFIELD — The passage of 10 years hasn't soothed the pain for Aram P. Jarret Jr. and his family but remembering his daughter Amy N. Jarret's caring ways does help them cope to a degree.
Amy was a flight attendant on United Flight 175 out of Boston and died at the age of 28 when terrorists seized the aircraft and flew it into the South Tower of the World Trade Center on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001.
While remembering his daughter this week, Jarret, a local attorney with offices on Eddie Dowling Highway, said it is the many memories he holds of the good times with his daughter that he tries to think about today.
That is especially true as the events of Sept. 11 are being recounted in observance of the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks. Those attacks claimed the lives of 2,977 innocent people who were either aboard the four jetliners hijacked and crashed by the attackers, who were at work in the World Trade Center and the U.S. Pentagon, or who were the first responders attempting to help others that day.
Amy's plane held nine crew members and 59 passengers including the five terrorists waiting to take control of the aircraft as it headed west.
"It's been very difficult the past couple of weeks," Aram Jarret said of the impact of the nationwide attention being given to the anniversary of the attacks.
Amy's family planned to join the families of other Sept. 11 victims in New York City over the weekend to participate in the dedication of the National Sept. 11 Memorial & Museum built on a portion of the World Trade Center site near the footprints of the two towers and a park area. The ceremonies today will include the reading of the names of the victims and the tolling of bells in their memory.
Jarret will attend the New York City ceremony with Amy's mother, Marilyn Trudeau of Glocester, as well as three of Amy's four siblings.
There are also planned remembrances in Boston, Providence and Woonsocket. North Smithfield will hold its memorial service on Wednesday when the family members have returned.
Because Amy died in the World Trade Center, Jarret said the family considers the site to be the place holding her physical remains.
"We never received Amy's remains so for all intents and purposes that is where she is buried," her father said.
The new memorial will remember an act of inhumanity but that may not bring any sense of closure for Sept. 11 to their families.
"Do you get closure in a situation like that?" Jarret asked. "Not really. There never really is closure. We never had a funeral for Amy so the only thing we have are our memories."
A memorial service was held by Amy's family on Sept. 23, 2001, at Fort Adams in Newport and drew many of her friends from the area as well as her co-workers from United Airlines and American Airlines. It ended on the North Lawn of the State Park overlooking Narragansett Bay with a release of white doves of peace by her family.
In spirit, Jarret said his family believes Amy is still with them here at home in so many ways.
They talk about her to the grandchildren and retell all those funny and touching stories about her days growing up in Woonsocket and North Smithfield and when she later went off to college at Vilanova University and started her career.
Fortunately for her family, Amy saved everything that could serve as mementos of the things she loved to do with her family and her many friends.
The boxes of her cherished items held as treasures by her family include everything from tickets to the plays she went to see, souvenirs from vacations and trips, photographs of favorite spots, samples of school work dating back to kindergarten, and reminders of her dance and theater performances.
Her father holds a ticket from the play "Miss Saigon" that he and Amy saw on a trip to London, among his own favorite remembrances, and the fact they have many others is a treasure today.
"We still have a part of Amy with us and we are able to impart those memories to our grandchildren and close family members and friends," he said. "Because of that Amy will always be with us."
The family also holds memories of many humorous moments with Amy; things that can still draw a laugh, like when they think of the time she was on the beach in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. and walked smack into a telephone pole. She could be a bit clumsy at times, rushing down the stairs at home in a hurry to get to work and tripping over her own feet, her father recalled.
And there was that time when, while volunteering behind the concession stand at the Stadium Theatre, she stepped on a trap door in the floor and somehow fell unhurt into the space below.
It still amazes Jarret how Amy could also be that poised person on an airline flight, capable of coasting down the aisle during turbulence and offering her passengers something to drink or eat from the cart she would push along with her.
Amy's abilities in school and community service earned her a $1,000 scholarship from the Woonsocket Kiwanis Club when she graduated from Mount St. Charles Academy in 1990.
She was a member of the National Honor Society, a first runner-up of Rhode Island Young Woman of the Year for 1990, second runner-up for Miss Teen Rhode Island, a recipient of the Rhode Island Book Award and was also listed in Who's Who Among High School Students in America.
Amy was a class secretary and a member of the Student Council and was active in organizations such as Students Against Driving Drunk and The Woonsocket Youth Council. She worked as a volunteer for the Rhode Island Association for Retarded Citizens, Mount St. Francis Nursing Home, the Woonsocket Beautification Committee and the Holocaust Commemoration Committee. She was a Eucharistic minister at her church, and was said to have exhibited a "spirit of volunteerism" that made her deserving of the Kiwanis scholarship.
Amy was also known to live her life to its fullest. She kept in touch with her local friends and would stand out as that polished and stylish looking young professional when going out with them to a local restaurant to meet up with fellow Mounties and other Woonsocketers.
She was also looking forward to a future with her longtime boyfriend, Kyle Rusconi of Philadelphia, and had talked about becoming engaged.
Amy also kept up with her siblings, Jay, Alicia, Matthew and Marc, and her mom, Marilyn, and the rest of her family.
She partnered in her family's passion for Notre Dame football, where Aram Jarret graduated in 1965, and the New England Patriots, too, her father said.
"Amy loved sports," Jarret said while noting his daughter was also a fan of basketball at her alma mater, Villanova University.
"She had a lot of spirit, she was very giving, and she took care of people," he said. When Christmas would roll around, Jarret said he'd find it difficult to start picking out gifts for the family and would seek Amy's help.
"I would say I don't know what to get everybody and in two minutes she could come up with a list. She knew what everyone wanted and needed," he said. "She was great at something like that."
It is such thoughts that help when Jarret thinks about how Amy died.
"Really, all I have is the memories of Amy. I thank God that we had a great relationship and had the opportunity to do many things together," Jarret said.
"I am really grateful that I was able to be a part of her life for 28 years," he added.
The more difficult part of remembering Amy is the reality of how she died at the hands of terrorists.
It is always in Jarret's mind that Amy did not die of an illness or an accident as some young people do, but that she was a victim of murder. That is the reason he feels some solace in the U.S. military's success in finding Osama bin Laden, the architect of the Sept. 11 attack, and killing him.
"It does help to some extent," Jarret said. "Amy was murdered and he was the catalyst for this whole thing, this act of terrorism. In some respects, I was happy about that but it didn't bring back Amy."
There are other things to think of regarding that day.
What people believed before Sept. 11, 2001 and what they believe today are very different as a result of the attack. Jarret believes the aftermath of Sept. 11 has brought greater attention to security and safety in travel. There is also the ongoing efforts of the U.S. military to fight the threat of terrorism that still exists, he said. "Thank God for them and all they do," Jarret said.
The 10th anniversary also comes with thoughts of all the victims of Sept. 11 and the work not yet done to remember them. Jarret said he believes people need to hear about Amy and get to know her better so that they can understand what happened that day. A new generation must know what was truly lost by so many families, according to Jarret.
In Rhode Island, there were more victims than just Amy. This weekend will also be marked by Bryant University's Annual Shawn M. Nassaney Memorial Race that benefits the Pawtucket native and track standout's memorial foundation. Shawn and his girlfriend, Lynn C. Goodchild of Attleboro, were also aboard Flight 175 when it departed Boston. They were heading to a vacation in Hawaii before returning to graduate school.
They are remembered by an extended group of family and friends, just as Amy Jarret is remembered.
And all of the families have those special memories they will always hold tightly to help today. For Jarret, it's Amy's way of showing happiness with a smile.
"She is a bright, shining star," he said.

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- Remember the 2004 NBA draft when most of usthought the Orlando Magic were making a big mistake passing on EmekaOkafor? I think that Dwight Howard guy they drafted turned out okay.
Okafor, 29, hasn't exactly steered his career down the route we expected, ever sincehe gracefully cut down the nets in his final days with Connecticut. Butcan we totally blame it all on him?
Five years with the Charlotte Bobcats and three with the New OrleansHornets is the equivalent to wasting a career with Oakland Raiders, orthe Kansas City Royals.
Maybe you'd argue the Wizards are only slightlyless of an abomination than the Bobcats and Hornets, but as Washington team president Ernie Grunfeld said yesterday: "We think we're a better team today than we [were] yesterday." The Wizards rotation isn't half bad; some players like Trevor Booker will be fighting tooth-and-nail for minutes.
And althoughthe Wizards have slated themselves for two years of mediocrity at bestwith yesterday's trade, sitting at .500 might not be a terrible place for thefranchise to float around for the time being.
Let's learn more about Okafor.
*Okafor was an academic All-American at UCONN, graduating with a 3.76 GPA in three years. His major was finance.
*His parents are of Nigerian descent, which links him to Houston Rockets legend Hakeem Olajuwon. The pair worked out together in the summer of 2005 and formed a close bond.
*Okafor was a member of the 2004 Olympic team -- you know the one that embarrassed us all by finishing with the bronze medal. Hilariously, the box score from the American's loss to Argentina has been removed from team USA basketball's website.
*The 05-06 season, as well as the 11-12 campaigns were complete washes for the big man. The latter injury was an ankle injury, while last season it was a lingering left knee issue. So when people argue Okafor has been injury riddled, it isn't true.
*Afterfour seasons of watching Okafor, avid NBA consumers realized Okafor wasa 15 and 10 guy at best. The defensive forward was someone who should be a respectablefranchise's third best player -- but certainly not a superstar,something Charlotte had hoped for when they drafted him second overall.Horrendously, the Bobcats awarded Okafor a six-year, $72 million deal in 2008,only to trade him a year later for Tyson Chandler and a draft pick.
*While in New Orleans, Okafor consumed 4,500-5,500 calories a day.
*According to this site, Okafor's nicknames are: EO-50 and Oak Tree.
*And of course, my tweet from earlier: Okafor appeared on the teenage girl-centric television program "One Tree Hill."

Author Dominic Pulera is currently traveling around the United States making presentations about Italian-American issues. As part of his speaking tour, he will visit Price on Sept. 25.
Pulera is coming to Price to learn more about the Italian-American community in the area. People of Italian origin account for more than nine percent of the county's population. To this end, Pulera will speak at an event sponsored by the Price City Library that day. The program is free and open to the public.
In his presentation Pulera is going to describe how people of Italian origin have overcome poverty and discrimination to enjoy great success in the U. S.
"Through the use of numerous facts and anecdotes, I will trace the tremendous progress of the Italian Americans over the years," says Pulera. "I look forward to engaging in dialogue with the people of Carbon County."
He hopes that his presentation serves as a catalyst for the attendees to share their views, thoughts, experiences, and perspectives. This dialogue is especially valuable to him as a researcher, as it gives him insights into the culture of Utah.
"I will write about the Italian Americans of Utah in my next book," notes Pulera.
Pulera is an internationally recognized expert on matters involving race, ethnicity, and gender. His publications include two works of serious nonfiction: Visible Differences (2002) and Sharing the Dream (2004). Pulera's next book is Green, White, and Red: The Italian-American Success Story (expected publication date: 2008).
Among many topics, he can speak on the following:
How the Italian-American experience in Utah resembles and differs from that of Italian Americans elsewhere in the country.
The reasons why Italian Americans have prospered over the last century.
The contributions of Italian Americans to the United States in general and Utah in particular
The extent to which Italian Americans preserve their ancestral customs and traditions, considered in the context of national developments.
How the Italian-American story in Utah affirms the American Dream and the opportunities that exist in the United States.
Why the history of Italian-American progress matters to us today and underscores the significant contributions that immigrants and their descendants make to America.

Well, dear readers, it's official: autumn is in the air and we are ready to paint the town redÂ--in numerous ways! In addition to going on a bit of a shopping spree (the plan is to stock up on a bevy of directional pieces), we're also going to wear as much of said color as possible. From candy apple to carmine, rouge is the season's hottest hue and looks divine on accessories of all kinds. For example, who could resist Alexander Wang's Anita Frame Satchel ($1100) in its enticing oxblood hue or the berry-colored Bow-Embellished Suede Gloves ($395) by Miu Miu, which would look marvelous worn with a camel coat? Either one would perk up an outfit perfectly and make your timeless basics look fresh and fabulous anew.
Of course, not everyone wants to color the city crimson, so for those of you who prefer a more understated palette, maybe we can entice you with the season's must-have materialÂ--leatherÂ--instead? We particularly love Catherine Malandrino's Pleated Leather Skirt ($595): it's sweet and sophisticated in equal parts and completely in keeping with the season's key trends. If that's too girly for you, perhaps it's time to invest in Rick Owens' Leather Moto Jacket ($2675), which is sure to give any outfit a touch of model-off-duty edge. Whatever you're looking for this fall, know that you'll find oodles of must-have pieces in today's story and stocked in our virtual closet. Even better: these amazing items have been conveniently pulled together into one tidy bundle for youÂ--making shopping even easierÂ--courtesy of Rightcliq by Visa.

CANTON St. Lawrence County Judge Jerome J. Richards has dismissed a driving while intoxicated indictment against a Gouverneur man, sending the case of Mark W. McIntosh back to Fowler Town Court after finding that actions taken by the local court and the district attorneys office subjected Mr. McIntosh to double jeopardy and denial of due process.
St. Lawrence County District Attorney Nicole M. Duv� declined comment on the judges order, saying that she could not speak to it substantively while Mr. McIntoshs case remains active.
Public Defender Stephen D. Button, who filed the motion to which Judge Richards responded, also declined comment. He did confirm that Mr. McIntosh is to appear again in Fowler Town Court on May 1.
There, according to Judge Richardss ruling, Mr. McIntosh will stand before the court restored to his original status as of Oct. 3, when he accepted a plea agreement offered by Assistant District Attorney Andrew Botts and pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of DWI to resolve all charges.
Disagreement over the validity of that plea lay at the heart of a three-way legal tussle between Town Court, Ms. Duv�s office and Mr. Buttons office.
Mr. McIntosh, 42, of 233 Doane Road, was arrested Sept. 8 following a traffic stop on Route 58 in Fowler, after which his blood alcohol content was measured at 0.18 percent, state police said. Under state law, a BAC of 0.08 percent or more constitutes intoxication. Aggravated DWI is charged when the BAC is 0.18 percent or more.
Based on a prior conviction, Mr. McIntosh also was charged with a felony. But, Judge Richards noted, during plea discussions Oct. 3 there was no explicit mention of the pending felony complaint, nor does the audiotape or transcript reflect whether or not the felony complaint was at that time physically in the courts file which the parties were reviewing during the plea proceeding.
On Oct. 10, documents show, Fowler Town Justice Paul M. Lamson emailed an assistant district attorney and an assistant public defender, writing that when reviewing the file while ordering the (presentence investigation), I found a felony complaint that had been given to the court. Somehow I missed it in the file. Mr. McIntosh was originally arraigned on the felony, but I never caught it when we built the case file later.
On Oct. 12, Assistant District Attorney Joshua HaberkornHalm emailed the justice advising him to vacate the illegal plea, which he maintained was in violation of criminal procedure law requiring a motion from the district attorney to reduce the felony complaint to a misdemeanor.
The justice replied that he would do so.
Nothing in the file states the legal reason why the court vacated the plea, Judge Richards observed.
The local court denied defendant basic due process in vacating the guilty plea in response to the prosecutors email request, without prior notice to the defense and an opportunity to be heard, he concluded.
The DAs office then sent Mr. McIntoshs case to a grand jury, and on Dec. 6 he was indicted on one count of aggravated DWI and two counts of DWI.
And yet, Judge Richards noted, as late as Dec. 5, Town Court advised the defense that no order had been entered vacating the Oct. 3 plea, but that one would be forthcoming.
Town Courts failure to properly vacate the plea, combined with its failure to file a written order confirming that action with superior court prior to the indictment, meant that there was in place an apparently valid misdemeanor plea at the time of the indictment, creating a double jeopardy situation, Judge Richards wrote.
The only way to correct these several errors is to dismiss the indictment and vacate the order vacating the plea, the judge concluded, sending the case back to Town Court where questions about the original plea and sentencing commitments can be addressed.

GM Watch: Down to Two?
Brian Bassett , TheJetsBlog.com
Rumors are rampant that today is the day that the Jets will pick their GM by this afternoon. From what we hear it's down to two candidates, neither if which will be named Tom Gamble.
We know … we know … and we'll get to it later, but sufficed to say, Gamble might have ultimately declined the team. Even so, the Jets have two very good candidates left and for the Jets, it comes down to either former Broncos GM Ted Sundquist or current VP of Administration for the Seahawks John Idzik.
Both are solid choices and whoever is named we can all agree that the Jets are going to need someone who has the following characteristics:
A Pragmatist — Rex Ryan has a great football mind, but one of the things we've learned about him as his time at the Jets coach is that he's prone to getting a little carried away with himself. He needs a GM to reign him in somewhat and have a more level-headed perspective.
Someone With Appreciation of Player Evaluation — Tannenbaum wasn't totally unschooled in evaluating talent, but he did rely on his support staff to help him make judgement calls more of the time than maybe it seems the new GM will and should. The Jets are going to need someone who has coaching/scouting/talent evaluation experience and can see the talent and judge the value for themselves. Of course they will need to have
Someone Willing to Work With Rex — Woody has made it clear that for 2013, Rex is his guy. The Jets need to hire someone who is willing to work with a personality like Rex and who also isn't afraid to run contrary to him when required.

The St. Stanislaus Kostka vigilkeepers meet regularly to share news. The group of 60 or more regulars have been keeping a round-the-clock vigil in the historic church for nearly a year.
ADAMS, Mass. — The chill's starting to creep back into the church, and the dozens of parishioners were buttoned up in coats as they slid into the pews of the darkened nave.
It was the waning of Day 326 and the regular Monday night meeting of the vigilkeepers at St. Stanislaus Kostka Church. The goal of their vigil is simple: Keep the historic and fabulously decorated Polish church open as a place of worship.

Baseball Shutout by Illinois State, 6-0
NORMAL, Ill.- The Bluejay baseball team suffered its second shutout loss of the season, 6-0 to Illinois State on Saturday, May 5.
Creighton fell to 24-13 overall and 8-6 in Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) play, while Illinois State moved to 31-16 on the season and 11-3 in the MVC.
The loss is Creighton's fourth consecutive, the Jays' longest losing streak of the season.
The Jays two best scoring chances came in the fourth and the sixth. Junior Brad McKewon drew a leadoff walk to open the fourth. One out later sophomore Jake Peter slapped a single through the left side to put runners at first and second with only one out. A ground ball to short by senior Alex Staehely moved the runners up 90 feet, but freshman Reagan Fowler ending the inning with a grounder to second.
Creighton's threat in the sixth followed a similar path as junior Jerry Mitchell opened the frame with a single to left. Two outs later, Peter doubled to left-center, then Staehely worked a full-count walk to load the bases. Fowler blasted a shot up the middle that caught the back of the mound and caromed right to Redbird second baseman Paul DeJong.
Illinois State got a single run in the third, two more in the fifth and put the game away with three in the sixth.
Bluejay starter, senior Nick Musec, suffered the loss (1-5). Musec allowed three runs on five hits and four walks in 4.1 innings of work. Senior Mark Winkelman relieved Musec in the fifth, taking sole possession of the MVC record for career appearnaces with 124.
Redbird hurler, Dan Savas, moved to 7-0 on the year with an eight inning effort. Savas limited the Jays to three hits and three walks.
Peter finished with two of Creighton's three hits, while Mitchell had the other.
Creighton and Illinois State will wrap up the three-game series on Sunday, May 5 at 1:00 p.m. Freshman Austin Groth gets the start for the Jays, while Illinois State counters with Brad Sorkin.

Here in South Australia, we blend far more than wine.
Adelaide is a short distance from Kangaroo Island, a unique wildlife sanctuary.
Our beaches, where you can swim in clear, turquoise waters blend brilliantly with dramatic seascapes, where giant southern right whales appear out of the blue.
Speaking of water, Australia's mightiest river, the Murray River, meanders through our landscape. Mix lazy days on a houseboat holiday with the rush of high-energy water sports.
We blend the freshest, finest produce in the country with chefs of world repute
Even in the ancient outback, (which is just out the back), you'll find New Age chefs weaving their magic in the most unlikely places.
In our capital city, history and elegance sit comfortably side by side with cheering crowds, high octane adrenaline, the world's best cyclists, global music and many more amazing events.
Our state blends a love of the arts with a passion for sport, a love of the new with a respect for the old, a warm smile with a cold glass of something.
Pop down and see us soon
We're in the south of the continent (as our name implies) with a 3,000 kilometre (1864 miles) coastline. We reach far into the heart of the outback as well.
It's all part of the brilliant blend that is South Australia.
Here are some great ideas for you to try while you're in the area.

Should My Kids Get a Flu Shot?
Tell the Truth: Does Your Kid Get a Flu Shot?
But is getting a flu shot the best way to prevent getting sick this cold and flu season? With the vaccination needing two weeks to take full effect and the height of flu season due to hit mid-October, scheduling the shot sooner rather than later ensures your lil one may be protected. Even if your tot gets vaccinated, she's still at risk of getting the flu, making the shot an opportunity to expose her to various strains, which might come with side effects including rash, headache, fever, and hives. With many parents still nervous about vaccinating their kids, getting a flu shot is once again a hot-button issue.
Reducing exposure to the virus is the best way to prevent the flu. Eating healthy, spending time outdoors, enjoying regular exercise, and washing hands can also reduce the chances for catching the flu. But kids are social butterflies, making hitting the local playground, playing with friends at school, and even visiting the grocery store during the flu season big opportunities for exposing kids to thousands of germs.
Tell the truth — does your kid get a flu shot each year or do you take the risk that they might get sick?

They work all out to purchase their dreams,even at the cost of their health,life and future. They made a lot of money, much more than they could have during an entire lifetime in their hometown, but it has taken a heavy toll on them.

Very gripping. It is odd for me to think that someone can be considered an immigrant in their own country. Horrible to think what those people are doing to their health. But if metal stripping were outlawed outright, how would these people make a living? By their own admission it is their only alternative to sub-subsistence farming.I hope their children appreciate their efforts.
