CENTRAL FALLS — Brutally hot outside temperatures and a fire and chemical spill inside a paint factory combined to cause a hazardous and uncomfortable scene for dozens of area firefighters on Monday.
Firefighters responded to the five-alarm blaze at around 11:30 a.m. at General Polymer Inc., an industrial paints and coatings company located at 59 Foundry St. The company occupies a three-story, 75,000-square foot brick mill building located in a densely populated neighborhood off Broad Street.
According to Central Falls Fire Chief Robert Bradley, a fire ignited in a large metal vat containing flammable chemicals that were being mixed in the production process. The fire in the vat was fully involved, he said. The blaze set off the sprinkler system but the water caused a second vat next to it to overflow and spill its contents all over the factory floor and into the basement. Over 300 gallons of chemicals, some believed to be hazardous, were spilled.
Bradley said no employees were hurt in the mishap and the building was evacuated. However, the large chemical spill and need for a hazardous materials clean-up prompted a call for mutual aid and specialized equipment from as far away as Warwick and Smithfield. Also providing key assistance to Central Falls were fire and rescue companies from Pawtucket, Cumberland, Lincoln, East Providence and Woonsocket, along with personnel from the Rhode Island State Fire Marshal's Office.
Bradley said that because some of the chemicals were believed to be hazardous, the massive clean-up efforts required firefighters to don protective gear and oxygen masks despite the 90-plus degree temperatures outside. He said he expected firefighters and clean-up crews to be at the site for much of the afternoon.
Thirteen members of the Woonsocket Fire Department's regional hazmat team were sent to a fire in a three-story mill building in Central Falls as a decon team to provide chemical decontamination for firefighters at the scene. The decon team was requested after the fire on Foundry Street was declared a hazardous-materials situation.
As firefighters exited the building, they immediately removed their equipment and were doused with water from the fire hoses. Many were visibly weak from the heat and had to be helped out of their gear, while some required extra oxygen and fluids. The Providence Fire Department's canteen unit dispensed countless cups of water to those on the scene during the long clean-up process.
Three first responders were transported to the Memorial Hospital, said press spokesperson Dyana Koelsch. Two were treated for heat exhaustion and released and another was being held for an evaluation, she said.
About a half dozen more firefighters became overcome by the heat to varying degrees and were treated at the scene, said Bradley and Pawtucket Fire Chief William Sisson.
Bradley said that due to the types of chemicals involved, much of the firefighters' gear was contaminated and will have to be destroyed. He lamented the considerable costs associated with this loss of gear, noting that much of it is custom fitted to the firefighters.
While a large rear section of the old mill building had windows that were missing or boarded up, Bradley said the paint company was operational and its fire alarms and sprinkler system were fully functioning. He did not know how many employees worked there. He said a long rear section with a loading dock, which once housed a bingo hall, had served as storage for the company but was no longer being used.
Bradley said that while the clean-up efforts were going to be considerable and time-consuming, he didn't think the building was damaged beyond repair. He also that the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
Several apartment buildings and businesses are in close proximity to General Polymer. David Story, who lives in the apartment house next door, at 61 Foundry Street, said his landlord suggested that the tenants evacuate as a precaution. He and other neighbors stood outside watching the long-unfolding scene, which brought an array of specialized fire and rescue equipment that ranged from hazardous materials trucks, foam and air-supply units to a large T.G. Green Airport fire and rescue van.
According to its website, General Polymer has been involved in the engineering and production of custom industrial paints and coatings for over 25 years. Product users range from cosmetic manufacturers to industrial production companies.

My boyfriend is in Basic Training in Fort Sill, Ok. and his graduation is June 17th. I am trying to book a flight from California and its hard because I have little communication with him... and I wanna book it soon because prices get higher the longer I wait. I am going down there the 15th, so I can be at his family day the 16th and his graduation the 17th. His AIT starts June 21st in LWOOD, Missouri. So my question is- is he going to be able to be with me at all after his graduation? Should I return to California the 19th? Since his schooling doesnt start till the 21st when do you think he'd need to report back to go to his AIT? PLEASE HELP.

Hennepin County believes that no one is at increased risk of identity theft by the disclosure of an expiration date on a Hennepin County Service Center credit card receipt. However, Hennepin County recognizes one of the purposes of FACTA is to prevent identity theft and mandates deletion of certain credit card information appearing on customer receipts. Hennepin County agrees to this settlement because of the costs and risks of class action litigation.

Action Pack
INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE Quote-Along
|Steven Spielberg
|Harrison Ford, Sean Connery
|Run Time
|More Info
This screening is part of our June salute to dynamic duos in cinema!
"You must choose... but choose wisely."
We started the year off with some RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK Quote-Along parties. Earlier this spring we hung out with Short Round and Willie as they joined Indy in the TEMPLE OF DOOM. Now we're coming back with one more interactive Indiana Jones party, and this time we've got two Dr. Joneses to quote-along with!
Set two years after the events of RAIDERS, LAST CRUSADE is much lighter in tone than TEMPLE OF DOOM, and thanks to the relationship between Indiana and his dad, it's filled with even more quotable lines as the two quibble their way across Germany in pursuit of the holy grail of lost artifacts - the Holy Grail itself.
We're bringing back a lot of our favorite props from the first two movie parties, so you'll still be able to whip-along with Indy and kazoo-along with the theme song. But we've got all sorts of new fun toys for these screenings, too.
So join the Action Pack for INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, where X will always mark the spot.

Judge declares mistrial in Tucson fatal shooting
TUCSON, Ariz. — A judge has declared a mistrial in a first-degree murder
case in Tucson.
Pima County prosecutors say attorneys in the Manuel Jesus Pesqueira case
received information that jurors had violated their oath not to discuss their
case prior to deliberations.
The Arizona Daily Star says a new jury will be selected
in the case on Jan. 29.
The 28-year-old Pesqueira is accused of being one of two men who broke into a
Tucson apartment allegedly seeking drugs and money on June 29, 2011.
Authorities say one of the apartment's occupants _25-year-old Leonardo
Cota-Leyva _ was fatally shot in the head.

Pushes progression all over the mountain.
Slash powder in the morning and rip the park in the afternoon with the
medium-soft flex and catch-free feel of the Rome Women's Romp Snowboard.
This directional twin is set-back approximately 20-millimeters (or
0.78-inches) for extra float and stability when you're surf-slashing
through powder and bombing down groomers. Most impressive is the Romp's
NoHang-Ups Rocker. This flat-rocker hybrid profile is entirely flat
underfoot with its diamond-shaped flat camber zone, which extends just
20-millimeters shy of the tip and tail contacts. The board then rises up
with its 3D continuous curvilinear rocker at the tip and tail for
catch-free carving and jibbing. This design works great for
beginner-to-intermediate riders honing their carving skills, as the tip
and tail contacts are kinked upward, keeping you from catching an edge
when you're transitioning from edge-to-edge.
Loaded with Rome's Pop Core Matrix, the Romp displays a smooth, responsive feel, thanks to two zones of lightweight wood. StraightBiax laminates allow for an easy-flexing torsional feel, making it great for messing around the park or simply initiating turns without added torsional stiffness getting in the way. Bambooster-Dual Inline tech infuses lots of snap for learning to send kickers or popping ollies around the mountain. Additionally, the board's QuickRip sidecut holds an edge in icy, hardpacked conditions without sliding out, while its extruded base is low maintenance, allowing you to skip a few waxes without paying the price with sluggish speed.

It has been three months since General McCrystal delivered his assessment of the war in Afghanistan to the White House. President Obama sent him there to look things over, write a report, and tell the president what we need to win the war. McCrystal said we need an additional 40,000 troops.
The president is waffling on doing what his handpicked military man has suggested. That, or he is incapable of making an important decision. The man who insisted that congress sign the tarp and stimulus bills overnight because they were so important we couldn't take time to read them, is now paralyzed when it's his turn to step up to the plate. Instead of dealing with this urgent war issue, he is golfing, campaigning, making daily speeches on TV, and flying off to Asia to see if he can set up a far-eastern version of NAFTA. I think he's hiding.
It's all about politics. The left who supports Obama doesn't want to spend money defeating the people who brought down the twin towers. They want the money for social programs and the redistribution of wealth. The Taliban and Al-Qaida don't vote Democrat. People in the inner-city welfare lines do.
And, since Obama came to office we don't have a war on terror anymore. We have "overseas contingency operations." It's all in the name. Why would we want to spend billions of dollars for something that's not a war? And we are not fighting terrorists anymore. We are fighting criminals. Obama is going to give Sheik Khalid Mohammad, the guy who masterminded 9-11, all of the rights of citizenship in a civilian court to prove that point. Why would our Commander In Chief want to send another 40,000 troops to Afghanistan to fight criminals? The Afghan police should be up to the task.
In the meantime, our soldiers continue to sacrifice, and fight, and die, while our leaders dawdle, and argue, and push the decision away for another week or another month.
My heart bleeds as I watch this unfold. I was that soldier once. Three of my friends were killed in Vietnam just weeks after Lyndon Johnson abandoned his troops on the battlefield and took his pouty face home to Texas. I saw Nixon withdraw our troops without a clear victory, and I saw congress abandon South Vietnam after we had gone. Thousands of our Asian friends were slaughtered. We can't do that again.
Mr. President, send the 40,000 reinforcements your general has asked for, or get the hell out of Afghanistan. There can be no middle ground. Sending 20,000 troops will be like putting 200 gallons of fuel in an airplane that requires 400 gallons to make the flight, and then telling the pilot to do the best he can. We can't fly airplanes and fight wars like that. We've got to commit, or we've got to capitulate.
It would make me sad to see us withdraw from Afghanistan after all of the blood and sacrifice our people have given to make war there. I have talked to several of the young men and women who have carried that burden, and they are the best this nation has ever produced. Why do they do they fight? Is our cause just, or is it not? Can we turn our back on what our soldiers have already accomplished there?
I feel sick in my guts thinking about us abandoning another ally to the mercies of a bloodthirsty foe. Especially since the best and the bravest of their nation have stepped forward to help us. As an American, that would make me feel like a traitor. I don't want to be a traitor, Mr. President. Please help me avoid the shame.
But then, if you do decide to abandon Afghanistan, all is not lost. I'm sure we'll get a chance to fight the bad guys again. Only next time it might be in the streets of our own cities and towns. Those "criminals" have a religious obligation to kill us. My guess is; they'll follow us home.

Please be careful with fences that are rigged with electricity. They can be mighty painful, as Ex Bootneck recounts here:
On a long range rural (dark hours patrol) across the water in Northern Ireland many years ago; my young Boss (a 2nd Lieutenant straight out of the box) deemed it necessary to call a halt as he required a water leak! This did not bode well as every marine in the patrol would have taken a 'service' tactical leak at the last stop (laying in a prone fire position one would simply unzip and discharge into the ground, without any fuss).
The 18 man patrol went to ground tactically taking cover behind a dry stone wall, which was only 200 feet away from a well known border crossing in bandit country. I was not a happy hector as it was the worst place possible to call a halt, but a nervous pee has no respect for rank!
There was suddenly a panicked shout (almost a scream), which pierced the cold dead night; It was followed immediately by a marine who voiced his discontent. I slowly moved towards my 'Boss' and advised him to zip up and move to the rear, my controlled anger hardly withheld in it's tone. I assumed control and headed the patrol up to high ground where we settled around the inner edge of a forest. I secured the patrol and headed towards 'young sir' to offer strong advice through a gypsies whisper.
It transpired that 'young sir' had unzipped and pointed 'percy' at the dry stone wall and whilst in full flow had made contact with a live wire cattle fence, his startled reaction was to scream and pull sharp right where upon a young Marine took the brunt of the force~hence the muffled voice of discontent.
'Young sir' was hence forth known as 'swampy' by one and all. He actually turned out to be a very good Royal Marines Officer, and went on to serve the Corps through a short 12 year distinguished career.
Whoops young sir, I mean, Swampy. . .

(NBC) -- Mitt Romney's got a new campaign line today. "Hope is not a strategy."
We first heard it in his foreign policy speech Monday. He argues President Obama's policies have made the world more dangerous. "The risk of conflict in the region is higher now than when the President took office," said Mitt Romney, (R) Presidential Nominee.
Romney promised to create one point-person to deal with the Middle East, Arm Syria's rebels, Sanction Iran if needed, expand the navy and push free trade.
Democrats weren't impressed: "If one of my students turned it in they'd get a C because he gave absolutely no specifics," said Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
Polls are now split on Romney's popularity. Pew has him up four points among likely voters, but Gallup says the positive jobs report gave President Obama a five-point boost.
Courting Hispanic voters in California, President Obama moves to Ohio today, claiming Romney's debate performance was more style than substance: "What was being presented wasn't leadership. That's salesmanship. Governor Romney's plan is to let Wall Street run wild again but he's gonna bring the hammer down on Sesame Street." President Barack Obama
"The President has no new ideas..." Paul Ryan/ (R) Vice Presidential Nominee
Both vice presidential candidates are practicing for Thursday's debate.

The Orioles are willing to listen to trade offers for closer Jim Johnson, according to ESPN's Buster Olney (on Twitter). Baltimore is facing a massive payroll crunch this offseason, and Johnson's $10.8MM projected salary (per MLBTR's Matt Swartz) would seem to be a definite roadblock in their pursuit of top free agents to whom they've been linked, such as Carlos Beltran.
Olney recently profiled the Orioles' budget situation and spoke with other executives who felt that Johnson would be "the most painless cut" the team could make. The Orioles opened 2013 with a $92MM payroll and figure to be around that mark again in 2014. Spending nearly $11MM on their closer would seem to be a questionable allocation of their funds.

Harvard researchers use engineered bacteria to produce high-octane biofuel precursors
June 26, 2013 | Francinia Protti-Alvarez
Researchers at Harvard University's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering and the department of systems biology at Harvard Medical School have discovered a way to use lines of engineered E. coli bacteria to make targeted precursors of high-octane biofuels, the Wyss Institute has announced. The same lines can also produce precursors of pharmaceuticals, bioplastics, herbicides, and detergents, the institute says. "Sustainability is one of the biggest problems we face today, and developing potent biofuels to replace gasoline is a major challenge...

- How to Read a Study Record
There has been an increase in incidence in sexually transmitted infections in HIV infected patients in the last years. In this study the investigators will prospectively evaluate the prevalence of symptomatic and asymptomatic infections with N. gonorrhea and Ch. trachomatis as well as the seroprevalence of Herpes simplex Type 2 infection in HIV-infected patients attending the clinic for infectious diseases at the Berne University Hospital. In addition, participants will be asked to fill out a questionnaire on sexual behaviour and sexual health.
Study hypothesis: STI prevalence is high in certain risk-groups to justify screening in regular intervals.

|Boone Voting: Back to 3 Precincts
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 04 September 2013 17:47
Even with goals falling back in line—and one unanimous vote—the Watauga Board of Elections had trouble agreeing on most points at yesterday afternoon's meeting—a day after being scolded by the State Board of Elections and admonished to 'get along.' The local board did vote to rescind
their controversial action from August 12th which combined the three Boone precincts to one, a move that would have created one of the largest number registered voters voting at one polling place in the state. Then the debate centered on which ASU facility best fit the voting—the Plemmons Student Union or Legends, Kathleen Campbell saying, "It's going to be hard for me to vote for this. And think you could get your same ends by just saying 'the Watauga County Board of Elections wishes to study this matter further and allow for all citizens to have accurate and complete information' and leave off the 'prior to the recombination of this precinct' because that sounds like you've already got your mind made up—that you're going to do it." After a long discussion, it was another agree to disagree, a split 2 to 1 vote to move the polling location to Legends.

Hello Ladies,
Iv'e just picked up a pack of puff pastry. I intend to make squares with leftover apple pie filling. Any hints?
I've never done this before.

Serves 4
4 bananas (6 if small)
2 oranges (navels are best)
2 teaspoons dark brown sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons genuine Maple syrup
2 teaspoons Grand Marnier (or Cointeau)
Preheat oven to 180 deg C (350 deg F = universal baking temperature)
Peel and slice the bananas diagonally, place in a shallow open oven proof dish.
Zest the oranges and sprinkle over the bananas.
Juice the oranges and pour over over the bananas.
Sprinkle the sugar, maple syrup and the Grand Marnier evenly over the bananas.
Bake for about 10-15 minutes, until the bananas are soft but not going dark.
Divide equally into dessert bowls pouring the sauce over the top. Pour a little cream over each portion. Serve and eat immediately.
Very yum!
P.S. all me own work too.

It happened during the stock boom of the 1990s, and it is happening again. Social Security is coming under attack. The first challenge arose from hope — that savers would get more retirement income for their money if they bought stocks. But the idea of privatization was not popular with the public.
Sign up for the AARP Money Newsletter
Now, the attack comes from fear — that Social Security has serious financial problems and can only fail. Younger people lean more toward change than older people do. A CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll conducted a year ago found that 60 percent of adults who aren't retired expect to get nothing — zero — from Social Security in their older age.
They're mistaken. As misinformation and mistrust grow, however, it becomes important to explore — and explode — several Social Security myths that endanger the system's public support.
Myth No. 1: Social Security is going bankrupt. No, it's not. Even in the unlikely event that nothing changes and the program's entire surplus runs out in 2033, as projected, checks would keep coming. Payroll taxes at current rates would cover 77 percent of all the future benefits promised. That's true for young and old alike, and includes inflation adjustments.
Myth No. 2: I'd be better off if I'd kept my Social Security taxes in my own investment account. Hmmm — you're saying that you'd faithfully put that money aside, every year of your working life, in a mix of stocks and bonds, without ever skipping a year, drawing on your nest egg or selling when the market dropped? Few such paragons exist.
You'd need to invest far more than you probably realize to match the benefits Social Security pays. As an example, take a 65-year-old couple with a single breadwinner who earned the average wage. At retirement, they'd currently get about $2,170 a month, plus inflation adjustments, for life, the Urban Institute reports.
To equal that sum in private savings, they'd need to have about $580,000, says Michael Kitces, director of research for Pinnacle Advisory Group, and the money might last only 30 years. How many average earners are likely to save that much?

The Fans Have Spoken: Vick Poll Results
Bent , TheJetsBlog.com
We polled over 2,600 Jets fans earlier this week to see what the reaction of the fanbase would be to signing Mike Vick to be the new Jets starting quarterback. Here are the results:
30% of fans polled said they would stop being a Jets fan. Just under half of those people say they would never return and the rest would only return once he was off the team.
Less than a quarter of fans would be completely on board with the move. That's fewer than the number of fans that would abandon the team.
That means that over three quarters of fans would be not happy with the move or worse.
This was always just speculation, but it will be interesting to see if this speculation lingers or if the Jets rule the possibility out at some point down the line.
We are told the Jets take their fans views into account when they make moves and if they would be making the move for business reasons, rather than football reasons, as some will inevitably suspect, then these findings would suggest that such a move would not be good for business.

Senior Kelsey O'Donnell earns BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week
NEW YORK, N.Y. - Senior Kelsey O'Donnell earned the first BIG EAST honor for the Bluejays' women's soccer team, claiming the Defensive Player of the Week nod on Monday, Sept. 2.
O'Donnell earned the award for her play from Aug. 25 - Sept. 1. The lone senior on the back line, O'Donnell played a critical role in the Jays' shutout of North Dakota, 6-0 on Aug. 30 as well as the Jays' 4-1 win over Northern Colorado on Sept. 1.
Creighton held UND to just six shots in the match, including two in the second half, and did not allow a corner. On Sunday, O'Donnell and the defense once again held their opponent (Northern Colorado) without a corner. In addition, O'Donnell notched her first goal of the season via a penalty kick in the second half of the win over the Bears.
O'Donnell and the Bluejays return to action on Sunday, Sept. 8 as Creighton hosts Idaho at 1 p.m. in Morrison Stadium.

A decorated combat veteran whose January arrest on weapon-possession charges prompted outrage from his family and gun-rights proponents pleaded guilty Friday in Jefferson County Court to two misdemeanor counts and has been sentenced to a conditional discharge.
Nathan H. Haddad, 32, of 25240 Waddingham Road, town of LeRay, pleaded guilty to two counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon. He admitted that on Jan. 6, he possessed 30-round AR-15 and AR-7 magazines for ammunition, devices that are intended for military use only. He did not possess any weapons or ammunition, only devices used to feed ammunition into firearms.
Mr. Haddad, a former Fort Drum soldier, was charged by Jefferson County sheriffs deputies as the result of a traffic check on Steinhilber Road in the town of LeRay, where Mr. Haddads vehicle was parked. He was cited under a 1994 section of the state penal law that makes possession of a large-capacity ammunition feeding device a felony count. A sheriffs detective later said that Mr. Haddad advertised the devices for sale on Craigslist and was waiting to meet a potential buyer.
Mr. Haddads brother, Michael, Jamestown, established a defense fund to raise money for an honorable man who served his country and is now a victim of a government that has taken routine actions and criminalized them. As of Friday, a website for donations showed nearly $50,000 has been pledged. Several bloggers also took up the cause, claiming, among other things, that Mr. Haddads arrest was an attack on the 2nd Amendment.
Mr. Haddad was in the Army for more than a decade and was discharged in October 2010 after serving four deployments, including service in Iraq. His last assignment was in South Korea, where he suffered a shoulder injury during training.
If he remains free of legal trouble for one year, the conditional discharge will stand as his sentence. If not, he could be brought back into court and resentenced. He also was fined $100 Friday for each of the two weapon convictions and had his pistol permit reinstated.

About this blog
Out for Good
The view from under South Hill, as interpreted by Luca
Friday, October 14, 2011
It's finally here - the 10th Anniversary of the LGBT Center and Fall Splash/LGBT and Allied Alumni Reunion is taking place right now! Please join us as we celebrate all LGBT and Allied alumni, and the ten years of the campus LGBT Center. You can browse a complete schedule of LGBTA-themed events, and learn a bit more about the LGBT Center and our four LGBT-themed student organizations, or access the complete schedule of all Fall Splash/Alumni Weekend events.
Our kick off event with alumna Janet Green in commemoration of National Coming Out Day took place last night, and there are five additional events that will take place from now throughout the weekend.
Celebrate along with us, either on campus or from afar, by sending some festive LGBTA-themed e-postcards, viewing or listening to our incredibly talented students who have created LGBTA-themed videos and music, or connecting with us via Facebook.
This will be a great opportunity for current students to meet and network with LGBT and allied alumni, and for alumni to learn more about the center and its work, our award-winning status as one of the most welcoming campuses for LGBT students in the nation, and our current LGBTA-themed student organizations and other offerings and accomplishments.
If you're an alumnus, things may have changed a bit since you were here as a student. I have heard from alumni spanning decades, and the experiences and campus environment for LGBTA students has varied over the years. The LGBT Center is but a small part of the long and very rich history of LGBT and allied students at Ithaca College. With the help of some wonderful folks at the Library and the Ithacan, we have been able to find references to an LGBT-themed student group on campus consistently all the way back to 1979. (It's the student organization currently called Prism, but it has had several names over the years including Gala and BiGayLa, among others). And just a few weeks ago, a researcher in our college Office of Institutional Advancement contacted me when she discovered a document from 1971 that detailed a meeting of 11 students who were interested in establishing an IC chapter of the Gay Liberation Front. These are all vital, but sometimes lost (or temporarily lost) pieces of history, and the LGBT Center wants to collect them so our current students can have a sense of this important history and the role of LGBT and allied students throughout the years.
I invite you to share your recollections and experiences of all things LGBT and Allied during your time as a student at IC. If you're joining us in person, there will be several ways for you to share your stories throughout the weekend. If you can't be with us this week, I invite you to share your stories right here using the comments function. And whether you visit IC this week or not, consider creating a short video and sharing it - upload it to YouTube and share the link via the comments section on this post.
Some suggested questions to consider might be:
- How did your time at IC contribute to the person you are today?
- Tell a story about your time at IC through the lens of LGBTA work/identity/community/climate. This might be something specific about a student organization, class, professor, or initiative.
- Share a fond reflection of IC
- If you were magically transported back, what one thing would you love to do or experience again at IC?
LGBT and Allied Alumni Reunion and the tenth anniversary of the LGBT Center....It's always been inside of you, you, you. And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough. Connect with us in person or online, and be a part of our future.

Whether you're a regular Out for Good reader, or have just landed here for the first time, you'll glean pretty quickly that one purpose of this blog is to celebrate the upbeat, positive, and good. As I noted when this blog was launched, ...There are lists and lists of problems and challenges that seem all too familiar in the terrain of LGBT life. Sometimes, it just seems really hard....And yet, there are those other times too. Where despite the pitfalls and challenges...there is some pretty good stuff happening...So yes, I am also Out For Good.
Please join with me in literally going Out for Good - celebrate the 10th anniversary of the LGBT Center with me by doing good for others! In the process, we'll also have a bit of fun, a bit of fitness, and a bit of colorful rainbowy-goodness too.
Saturday October 15, 9 am

A couple of weeks ago, I got a glimpse of history. Not my personal history, but the history of the LGBT Center and many of those who have been a part of it over the years. As it turns out, anyone who visited the LGBT Center website that particular evening were unexpectedly and inexplicably transported back to the LGBT Center of 5 years ago. In the process of "reskinning" the Ithaca College web presence to reflect a new look and updated logo, somehow little old ithaca.edu/lgbt began directing visitors not to the dreaded "oops, page not found" screen, but to the actual website we used back then.
At first, I was surprised. Very surprised. And then, the images and information on that old version of what we are today - but in a different way - transported me back to that time. Photos of alumni, images of campus that are a bit different than the views we have today, and the names of people who have made important contributions to our campus. Anna, who created that version of the website as part of a course project, who is now a CEO, entrepreneur and webcasting engineer. Michael, who participated in the beta testing of that website and later maintained it (through a painstaking old school process that actually involved html code!), who now manages all the IT needs of a major national organization. It took me back even further, to Braeden, who created the LGBT Center's very first web presence during a summer break just because he wanted to be of service to IC LGBT students. He's since gone on to great things, too, including a law degree and a beautiful family.
And me? I'm actually still here. Though also changed by these former students, and the many people I meet in my role here on campus. I'm so thankful for all those who have contributed their time and talents toward serving our LGBT and allied students, and for everyone who helps make IC a welcoming place for our students. I'm very thankful, too, for the fine folks in Marketing Communications and ITS here on campus, who fixed this mysterious glitch incredibly quickly. As quickly as the old website image transported me back in time, it was gone and replaced by the current LGBT Center website. (Phew!)
But you, too, can take a trip down memory lane. This year we'll celebrate the 10th anniversary of the LGBT Center. Events commemorating this milestone will take place throughout the year, including featured events during Fall Splash/Alumni weekend October 14 -16. Wondering what LGBT life was like on campus 5 years ago, or 10 years ago, or 30 years ago? Come to the panel discussion of alumni spanning five decades at Ithaca College. Want to be part of a new tradition? Run along with me in a contingent of LGBT and allied students and alumni in the Habidash 5K run. Information about these are other events will be available through the LGBT Center website (yes, the current one!), Alumni Relations, Intercom, and the Facebook pages of the LGBT Center and Ithaca College LGBT and Allied Alumni. I invite you all to learn more about our past, and be a part of our future!

We're so glad you're here! Lots of events and learning opportunities with LGBT-themes are being planned for the coming year, and here are just a few to start off the year:
- Tonight - a reception for new students will take place at 6:30 pm in Textor 103. Come see old friends and meet new ones, meet the LGBT Center program director and some of the students involved in the LGBT Center, and enjoy some refreshments, too! Immediately following the reception, the first Out of the Closet and Onto the Screen Film Series screening will take place in the same room. The film begins at 7 pm.
- Next week - Wednesday September 7, at 4 pm in the Handwerker Gallery (near the campus library) will be a Salon discussion "Kurt and Callie and Waylon Smithers too—Media Portrayals of LGBT Characters" - the Salon series is a Handwerker Gallery program aimed at providing students, faculty, staff and members of the community a forum outside of a classroom setting for intellectual discussion and debate.
Come on out to one or all of these events to kick off the new year. I look forward to meeting you!
Tuesday, July 26, 2011
Like many of our incoming class of 2015, I came upon the passage that is part of the title of this post, on page 209 of this year's First Year Reading Initiative selection Ransom by David Malouf: "Look, he wants to shout, I am still here, but the I is different." To prevent a spoiler for those of you who may not yet have finished (or begun) the book, I'll not delve too much more into the context in which this comes up in the book. The quote does evoke an assortment of other ideas, perhaps some of particular significance to the incoming class and to our new and current LGBT and allied students. The author and his other work, too, may be of interest.
College life, especially the first year, can sometimes yield a similar feeling with students thinking - or even exclaiming to others (parents, family members, friends from home) - I am still here, and I am different. Different than one once was, different than others may have known or believed, different yet still the same person. New experiences, ideas, relationships, and challenges can sometimes speed the process of coming to a more complete understanding of oneself. Sometimes that more complete understanding feels more like "home" for a person; other times it is messy and complicated and brings a host of other questions, challenges, and perhaps even risk.
As you read the book, a few things to keep in mind:
- If you've ever pondered your own life's course, think about what the book and the journeys of its characters may offer.
- If you're already thinking about your own future, perhaps you've read my previous post about the the unique and esteemed profession of college president, and the new organization made up of LGBT college presidents. Remember not to count yourself out of any profession. One day you could be an out college president; or one day you could be the out l,g, b, or t author of a book read by thousands of college students as their first year reading. For more on this, see the scholarly journal article that investigates metaphors of the closet and coming out in Malouf's work. The article, among other things, note's "Portraying a preference for fluid identities and multiple meanings, Malouf asserts that we must come out of the closet that is heteronormativity, embarking on an outing in search of a queer utopia."
- Watch Malouf describe the book and its themes, and his thoughts on storytelling, in a video clip.
- And finally, consider the excellent ideas our own college president suggests for you as you read - writing in the margins, and noting key ideas on the inside covers of the book itself as a tool to discover "who you are today... " and to "help you understand who you are trying to become." And perhaps through this process you will gain additional insight into your "I" and which components of yourself may be similar or different to what you had previously thought.

No Country for Old Men (Vintage International)by Cormac McCarthy
Staff Pick
No Country for Old Men includes both familiar and uncharted territory for Cormac McCarthy. His prose is lean and cadenced, but his formidable characters and intricate plot are as rich as ever. This is a novel of uncompromising beauty and power -- one of McCarthy's finest.
No Country for Old Men includes both familiar and uncharted territory for Cormac McCarthy. His prose is lean and cadenced, but his formidable characters and intricate plot are as rich as ever. This is a novel of uncompromising beauty and power -- one of McCarthy's finest.
This may not be Cormac McCarthy's best book, or even one of the best books of the year (in fact, its construction is a bit incoherent), yet I remain a sucker for the peculiar blend of melancholy and savagery that permeates all of McCarthy's work. Frightening, depressing, bleak: don't miss it.
"[A] taut thriller that not only holds, but also rewards, close attention....'There's no such thing as life without bloodshed,' McCarthy said 13 years ago in a rare interview. And like his character Moss, McCarthy can't help peeking. The constant question underlying his fiction is how we are to live on in the face of this knowledge." Ira Boudway, Salon.com (read the entire Salon.com review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Set along a bloody frontier in our own time, this is Cormac McCarthy's first novel since Cities of the Plain completed his acclaimed, best-selling "Border Trilogy."
Llewelyn Moss, hunting antelope near the Rio Grande, instead finds men shot dead, a load of heroin, and over $2 million in cash. Packing the money out, he knows, will change everything. But only after two more men are murdered does a victim's burning car lead Sheriff Bell to the carnage out in the desert, and he soon realizes that Moss and his young wife are in desperate need of protection. One party in the failed transaction hires an ex-Special Forces officer to defend his interests against a mesmerizing freelancer, while on either side are men accustomed to spectacular violence and mayhem.
The pursuit stretches along and across the border, each participant seemingly determined to answer what one asks another: How does a man decide in what order to abandon his life? A harrowing story of a war that society wages on itself, an enduring meditation of the ties of love and blood and duty that inform lives and shape destinies, and a novel of extraordinary resonance and power.
"Seven years after Cities of the Plain brought his acclaimed Border Trilogy to a close, McCarthy returns with a mesmerizing modern-day western. In 1980 southwest Texas, Llewelyn Moss, hunting antelope near the Rio Grande, stumbles across several dead men, a bunch of heroin and $2.4 million in cash. The bulk of the novel is a gripping man-on-the-run sequence relayed in terse, masterful prose as Moss, who's taken the money, tries to evade Wells, an ex-Special Forces agent employed by a powerful cartel, and Chigurh, an icy psychopathic murderer armed with a cattle gun and a dangerous philosophy of justice. Also concerned about Moss's whereabouts is Sheriff Bell, an aging lawman struggling with his sense that there's a new breed of man (embodied in Chigurh) whose destructive power he simply cannot match. In a series of thoughtful first-person passages interspersed throughout, Sheriff Bell laments the changing world, wrestles with an uncomfortable memory from his service in WWII and — a soft ray of light in a book so steeped in bloodshed — rejoices in the great good fortune of his marriage. While the action of the novel thrills, it's the sensitivity and wisdom of Sheriff Bell that makes the book a profound meditation on the battle between good and evil and the roles choice and chance play in the shaping of a life. Agent, Amanda Urban. (July)" Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"Shades of Dostoyevsky, Hemingway, and Faulkner resonate in McCarthy's blend of lyrical narrative, staccato dialogue, and action-packed scenes splattered with bullets and blood." Booklist (Starred Review)
"In his latest novel, McCarthy stumbles headlong into self-parody....McCarthy lays out his rancorous worldview with all the nuance and subtlety of conservative talk radio....A made-for-television melodrama filled with guns and muscle cars..." Library Journal
"[A]n entertaining novel from one of our best writers. Often seen as a fabulist and an engineer of dark morality tales, McCarthy is first a storyteller." The Washington Post
"No Country for Old Men would easily translate to the big screen so long as Bell's tedious, long-winded monologues were left on the cutting room floor — a move that would also have made this a considerably more persuasive novel." Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"With his stripped-down Marlboro Man prose, Cormac McCarthy knows how to write a bang-up Western thriller. But when he strives for grand mythic effect in the second half...his taut, suspenseful story quickly heads south. (Grade: B)" Entertainment Weekly
"Mr. McCarthy is smart to keep this book short and swift. After all, one can only sit through so many...speeches before retreating into numbness. But the question remains: Should a McCarthy novel be this easy to read?" Wall St. Journal
"Mr. McCarthy's story is so exquisitely harrowing that the reader can forget to breathe. But it's Sheriff Bell's private meditations interspersed between the chapters that give it its heft and soul." Dallas Morning News
"You will not be able to put it down — the storytelling is thrilling and terrifying. But you will come away from the reading experience with something more than Grisham or Crichton or any other genre writer can provide — a look into the darkest places of the human heart." Hartford Courant
"[N]asty fun...a darting movie-ready narrative that rips along like hell on wheels....Such sinister high hokum might be ridiculous if McCarthy didn't keep it moving faster than the reader can pause to think about it." Walter Kirn, The New York Times Book Review
"Of course two-thirds of a great book is more than we'll ever expect of most writers, but with McCarthy we've learned to set the bar higher, and by that standard No Country for Old Men, while riveting for much of its length, in the end falls short." Denver Post
"The pace is deliberately grim and airless — the book has little of the space and quiet that resonated beneath All the Pretty Horses and The Crossing. As a result, the murders are numbing rather than moving..." The Christian Science Monitor
"While No Country for Old Men surely will be welcomed as a worthy addition to border literature, it can't compete with the vast claim previous McCarthy novels have staked in that rapidly expanding territory." Kansas City Star
"No plot summary will do this novel justice. There is plenty of action. Readers may need a flow chart to keep track, but the mystery is more than enough to keep any reader panting. Some of the spare, swift dialog is profound and some is wonderfully comic." St. Petersburg Times
"[A] heated story that brands the reader's mind as if seared by a knife heated upon campfire flames. [McCarthy] is nothing less than our greatest living writer, and this is a novel that must be read and remembered..." Houston Chronicle
"Despite McCarthy's trademark laconic, well-tuned style, the novel reads much like any number of crime thrillers now on the market....What's missing are the depth and nuances of emotion found in McCarthy's trilogy, particularly All The Pretty Horses." Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
In No Country for Old Men, Cormac McCarthy simultaneously strips down the American crime novel and broadens its concerns to encompass themes as ancient as the Bible and as bloodily contemporary as this mornings headlines.
About the Author
Cormac McCarthy was born in Rhode Island in 1933 and spent most of his childhood near Knoxville, Tennessee. He served in the U.S. Air Force and later studied at the University of Tennessee. In 1976 he moved to El Paso, Texas, where he lives today. McCarthy's fiction parallels his movement from the Southeast to the West — the first four novels being set in Tennessee, the last three in the Southwest and Mexico. The Orchard Keeper (1965) won the Faulkner Award for a first novel; it was followed by Outer Dark (1968), Child of God (1973), Suttree (1979), Blood Meridian (1985), All the Pretty Horses, which won both the National Book Critics Circle Award and the National Book Award for fiction in 1992, and The Crossing and Cities of the Plain, which completes The Border Trilogy.

|UPDATE: Murder Suspect Erroneously Released
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 09 September 2013 06:13
Freedom was short lived for a Caldwell County man charged with murder, released in error from Avery County custody Friday. Michael Whisnant, 37, was arrested without incident Friday at his father's home just a few hours after he was accidentally released from the Avery County Jail,
according to Police Chief Scott Brown. Chief Brown said a clerical error led to the release as Whisnant was awaiting trial in the death of his girlfriend, 38-year-old Tammy Lynn Benge. Whisnant was held in Avery under a limited jail sentence, according to Sheriff Kevin Frye, who said his office checked for outstanding warrants or bonds when his release date came up Friday, and there were none in the system. Brown indicated that the paperwork snafu was to not issue a hold for Whisnant. In the incident for which he is charged with murder, the woman's body was found in Whisnant's home, according to police. Whisnant was arrested in April in the killing which came after violating a 2011 court order, issued after police arrested Whisnant on allegations of attacking Benge. After that incident, Whisnant was required to wear an ankle bracelet after posting bond for the 2011 incident, with part of his release that he was not supposed to have contact with Benge.

The UNU-WIDER World Income Inequality Database (WIID) collects and stores information on income inequality for developed, developing, and transition countries. The database and its documentation are available on this website.
WIID2 consists of a checked and corrected WIID1, a new update of the Deininger & Squire database from the World Bank, new estimates from the Luxembourg Income Study and Transmonee, and other new sources as they have became available. WIID2a contains fewer points of data than WIID1 as some overlaps between the old Deininger & Squire data and estimates included by WIDER have been eliminated along with some low quality estimates adding no information. In addition to the Gini coefficient and quintile and decile shares, survey means and medians along with the income shares of the richest 5% and the poorest 5% have been included in the update. In addition to the Gini coefficient reported by the source, a Gini coefficient calculated using a new method developed by Tony Shorrocks and Guang Hua Wan is reported. The method estimates the Gini coefficient from decile data almost as accurately as if unit record data were used.
The database will be updated and notifications and details on the updates will be given on the website. The letter denotes the version of the update. Some minor corrections can be done without a change of the database version. Please cite this database version as 'UNU-WIDER World Income Inequality Database, Version 2.0c, May 2008'.
Please contact the database manager for any questions on the database. We also encourage comments on this revision and contributions of updated data points.

About the ManufacturerThe Homer Laughlin China Company has been a leader in the design and manufacture of food service and retail china products for over 130 years. Best known for the classic and timeless Fiesta®, The Homer Laughlin China Company manufactures china products in shapes, designs and patterns that continue to delight and satisfy customers. Visitors to The Homer Laughlin China Company and Retail Outlet can expect to find unsurpassed craftmanship, state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques and the timeless quality of enduring products. The Homer Laughlin China Company owes its origin to a two kiln pottery on the banks of the Ohio River in East Liverpool, Ohio. Built in 1871 by Homer Laughlin and his brother Shakespeare, the Laughlin Brothers Pottery was one of the first whiteware plants in the country. The turning point in the artistic focus of the company came in 1927 with the addition of noted ceramist Frederick Hurton Rhead. His design vision would culminate in the 1936 introduction of Fiesta®, Homer Laughlin's best selling line, and today one of the most collected china products in the world. With the introduction of fully vitrified china in 1959, Homer Laughlin was able to participate in the restaurant/hotel markets. Homer Laughlin concentrated its efforts on the food service market and continued to add new shapes, patterns and decorating techniques throughout the 60's and 70's. The reintroduction of Fiesta® in 1986 as a high-fire, fully vitrified, lead free product redefined the standard for both food service and retail china products. The Homer Laughlin China Company has produced an estimated 25,000 china patterns throughout its 133 year history. A heritage rich in American tradition and innovation has given Homer Laughlin China the fortitude to look to the next century with anticipation of meeting greater challenges.

Submission Google Doubts Apple Will Approve Its New Maps Application->
redletterdave writes: "Even though Apple's App Store has also been friendly enough to offer alternative mapping applications to ameliorate customers upset with Apple's new default Maps app, the Cupertino, Calif.-based company may not be so friendly as to approve a Maps app submission from Google, which used to be responsible for the Maps experience in iOS until the iPhone 5. On Monday, sources at Google familiar with its mapping plans said the chances of Apple approving a dedicated Google Maps app on iOS 6 are "not optimistic." Specifically, they pointed to the lack of any mapping app in the 'Find maps for your iPhone' section of the App Store — accessible only via iPhones or iPads — that use the Google Maps APIs to call wirelessly for location, routing or point-of-interest (POI) data."

Tim Tebow and Tom Brady worried about Aaron Hernandez's behavior as early as 2011, with Hernandez being described as "a lot to handle," a newly surfaced video shows.
Read more at: http://nesn.com/2013/07/tom-brady-told-tim-tebow-he-was-watching-over-aaron-hernandez-in-2012-called-him-lot-to-handle/
Tebow and Brady are shown talking about Hernandez -- as well as former Florida Gator Brandon Spikes -- in the long-forgotten video from NFL Films.
"...I'm trying to watch over Aaron and Brandon," Brady tells Tebow.
"I appreciate that, too, man. They're good guys," Tebow responds.
"[Yeah] they're a lot to handle," Brady says.
The video is from Dec. 18, 2011, in Denver -- Week 15 of the NFL season, when Brady's New England Patriots defeated the Tebow-led Denver Broncos 41-23. The NFL Films video includes game highlights as well as Tebow and Brady shaking hands after the game and talking briefly about Hernandez.
The video shows that the two quarterbacks are very friendly, and it's apparent they have had contact with each other off the field. And some of that contact has been to talk about Hernandez and Spikes, a linebacker for the Patriots.
>> UF coach Will Muschamp talks about Aaron Hernandez
>> Tebow tried to break up Aaron Hernandez fight in 2007
Other tidbits from the video. It opens with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell embracing Tebow on the Broncos' sideline, encouraging the QB and asking about former Gators coach Urban Meyer. "He's looking forward to running Ohio State," Tebow says. Tebow, of course, answers most of the commissioner's questions with a very polite "yes, sir."
After some highlights of the game, the video then switches to Tebow and Brady meeting at midfield for their post-game handshake. The sound quality is amazingly clear as Brady encourages Tebow before the conversation turns to Hernandez and Spikes.

"Good game, Tim. You're having a great year," Brady says.
"Thanks. I appreciate it," Tebow says.
"Keep it up. Good things happen to good people," Brady says
"I appreciate that," Tebow responds.
At least for now, the two QBs are together on the Patriots roster. But Hernandez, charged with murder, is not on the team for the two good-guy QBs to try to keep an eye on.
Click here to watch the video. The part where Brady and Tebow talk about Hernandez and Spikes is around the 1:20 mark

No musical genre shares animation's sense of freedom, imagination, and humor more than jazz, so it's not surprising that the two art forms have enjoyed a long and happy relationship. Here's a clutch of rarely seen shorts that combine jazz with incomparable visuals. Highlights include Minnie the Moocher, a 1932 Betty Boop cartoon with unforgettable arrangements by the great Cab Calloway; Norman McClaren's extraordinary 1949 Begone Dull Care, whose animation was drawn, etched, and painted directly onto celluloid, with rollicking accompaniment by pianist Oscar Peterson; and 1957s The Adventures of an *, a typically offbeat animated journey by the great John Hubley.

WELLINGTON - Our loving father, grandfather, brother and friend, George Milton Thayn, age 91, passed away Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2008, doing what he loved. He was surrounded by some of his loved ones.
He was born April 5, 1917 in Price to George Lester and Mary Worley Thayn. Married Ardith June Jorgenson on July 4, 1939 at the Open Air Dance Hall in Wellington. Their marriage was solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple on March 30, 1965.
They made their home in the Wellington area, where Milton and Ardith ran a successful sheep and cattle ranching operation, while raising five sons.
Milton loved to farm and he especially loved the springtime when the cows calved.
He worked his life for his family.
He was generous, kind, and loved to tease and laugh. His infectious love for his career touched anyone around him.
Pop loved to visit and he would tell stories of his colorful life.
He was a great cook and he enjoyed cooking stews in the sheep camp for his family.
We all loved the time we spent with him, even though he was called home too soon.
Milton was active in life up to his last day; he only needed to finish baling hay.
Survived by his sons, Lester Chris (Carol), Dr. Milton Kenneth (Denise), Delbert K. (Brenda), Dr. J. Boyd (Mary) and David Alvin (Robin) Thayn, all of Wellington; 22 grandchildren and 34 great-grandchildren; three sisters, Thelma Pierce, Georgia Motte and Lena Beth Jones; and brothers, Lon and John Thayn.

When: Wednesday, November 23, 7:30 p.m.
Opponent: @ Florida (11-6-3)
UPDATE: Stralman will make his Rangers debut in place of Jeff Woywitka. Henrik Lundqvist will be in net. (4:01 p.m.)
UPDATE: The Rangers will unveil their Winter Classic jerseys on Monday at 4:00 p.m. (3:10 p.m.)
UPDATE: Jose Theodore will start for Florida. (12:11 p.m.)
EARLIER: Over the next seven days the Rangers will play the
Washington Capitals, Philadelphia Flyers and Pittsburgh Penguins. But first they must take on the current third
seed in the Eastern Conference, the surprising Florida Panthers, in New York's first of three games in four days.
No one expected much from Florida this season because even though
the Panthers invested big money in capable veteran free agents, they lost
goalie Tomas Vokoun to free agency.
But so far the trio of Scott Clemmensen, Jose Theodore and
Jacob Markstrom has done an admirable job in net and the Panthers rank 11th in the league in goals against.
Strong goaltending has been a welcome surprise, but the
Panthers trail the first place Penguins by just two points because their
offense has been fantastic.
The top trio of Stephen Weiss, Kris Versteeg and Tomas
Fleischmann has combined for 28 goals and 38 assists and has been literally
That line is the primary reason Florida has been winning,
but the Panthers also boast the league's seventh-ranked power play and have
gotten big contributions from defenders Brian Campbell, Dmitry Kulikov and
Jason Garrison.
At some point Florida may come tumbling back down to earth,
but the Panthers beat Pittsburgh on Saturday and are undeniably one of the
league's top teams at the present time.
That means the Panthers will provide a big test for New
York, which has beaten up on the NHL's cellar dwellers but has yet to prove
itself against the league's powerhouses.
The Blueshirts racked up victories over the Ducks,
Canadiens, Jets, Senators, Hurricanes and Islanders during their seven-game win
streak and though the Rangers shouldn't be punished for picking up 12 valuable
points, those games might not have been the best indicator of where the Rangers
truly stand.
New York has gotten by with an ineffective power play and
inconsistent offense thanks to stellar goaltending and defensive play, but the
Rangers probably won't be able to compete with Florida, Washington,
Philadelphia or Pittsburgh without delivering complete efforts.
Of course, New York must be cognizant of Florida's top trio,
but the team will need to start producing more goals as well.
Defenseman Anton Stralman practiced
with the first power play unit on Tuesday along with Brad Richards, Brandon
Dubinsky, Ryan Callahan and Erik Christensen and could make his season debut
against the Panthers.
The G.A.S. line and Dubinsky/Richards/Callahan trio will get
one more chance to click, but if they struggle Coach John Tortorella will likely
start from scratch in search of fresh line combinations.
Florida should provide a good early season barometer –
something we could have never guessed before the season. We'll see if the Rangers are up to the task.
- Jim Cerny reports that injured players Wojtek Wolski, Mike
Rupp and Marc Staal travelled with
the team to Florida. That's a
positive sign, but it could be nothing more than a team-bonding exercise as the
team travels during Thanksgiving. Wolski
and Rupp both underwent surgical procedures at the beginning of the month and
were expected to miss at least four weeks.
Each could player could soon be ready to skate. Staal was cleared for light physical activity
last week but hasn't
been skating. He's obviously on the
right track, but his return is still a long way off.
- HBO will air a 12-minute preview of "24/7" on
Friday at 9:15 p.m.
- Andrew Gross speculates that the Rangers will unveil their
Winter Classic jerseys next

A year-long investigation by former Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue (R) produced a startling 800-page report just released by Gov. Nathan Deal (R, pictured) that reveals rampant teacher cheating and unethical practices in the 55,000-student Atlanta public school system. Investigators conducted over 2,000 interviews and canvassed 800,000 documents in what is likely the most comprehensive and meticulous investigation of public-school cheating in U.S. history.
The award-winning "success" of Atlanta students is now being recognized as a sham, as 178 teachers and principals — 82 of whom confessed — were caught fixing answers on the Criterion-Referenced Competency Test (CRCT).
The Atlanta Journal Constitution has the details:
