A Missile Strike On Hawaii?SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea may fire a long-range ballistic missile toward Hawaii in early July, a Japanese news report said Thursday, as Russia and China urged the regime to return to international disarmament talks on its rogue nuclear program.
The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers), would be launched from North Korea's Dongchang-ni site on the northwestern coast, said the Yomiuri daily, Japan's top-selling newspaper. It cited an analysis by the Japanese Defense Ministry and intelligence gathered by U.S. reconnaissance satellites.
The missile launch could come between July 4 and 8, the paper said.
While the newspaper speculated the Taepodong-2 could fly over Japan and toward Hawaii, it said the missile would not be able to hit Hawaii's main islands, which are about 4,500 miles (7,200 kilometers) from the Korean peninsula.
A spokesman for the Japanese Defense Ministry declined to comment on the report. South Korea's Defense Ministry and the National Intelligence Service — the country's main spy agency — said they could not confirm it.
Tension on the divided Korean peninsula has spiked since the North conducted its second nuclear test on May 25 in defiance of repeated international warnings. The regime declared Saturday it would bolster its nuclear programs and threatened war in protest of U.N. sanctions taken for the nuclear test.
U.S. officials have said the North has been preparing to fire a long-range missile capable of striking the western U.S. In Washington on Tuesday, Gen. James Cartwright, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said it would take at least three to five years for North Korea to pose a real threat to the U.S. west coast.
President Barack Obama and South Korean President Lee Myung-bak met in Washington on Tuesday for a landmark summit in which they agreed to build a regional and global "strategic alliance" to persuade North Korea to dismantle all its nuclear weapons. Obama declared North Korea a "grave threat" to the world and pledged that the new U.N. sanctions on the communist regime will be aggressively enforced.
In Seoul, Vice Unification Minister Hong Yang-ho told a forum Thursday that the North's moves to strengthen its nuclear programs is "a very dangerous thing that can fundamentally change" the regional security environment. He said the South Korean government is bracing for "all possible scenarios" regarding the nuclear standoff.
In a rare move, leaders of Russia and China used their meetings in Moscow on Wednesday to pressure the North to return to the nuclear talks and expressed "serious concerns" about tension on the Korean peninsula.
The joint appeal appeared to be a signal that Moscow and Beijing are growing impatient with Pyongyang's stubbornness. Northeastern China and Russia's Far East both border North Korea, and Pyongyang's unpredictable actions have raised concern in both countries.
After meetings at the Kremlin, Chinese President Hu Jintao joined Russian President Dmitry Medvedev in urging a peaceful resolution of the Korean standoff and the "swiftest renewal" of the now-frozen talks involving their countries as well as North and South Korea, Japan and the United States.
"Russia and China are ready to foster the lowering of tension in Northeast Asia and call for the continuation of efforts by all sides to resolve disagreements through peaceful means, through dialogue and consultations," their statement said.
The comments — contained in a lengthy statement that discussed other global issues ? included no new initiatives, but it appeared to be carefully worded to avoid provoking Pyongyang. In remarks after their meetings, Medvedev made only a brief reference to North Korea, and Hu did not mention it.

Snowstorm cleanup ongoing on roads
by Sarah Fay Campbell
Last week's storm has left a bit of a mess in Coweta County.
In addition to hundreds of limbs down all over the sides of roads — and people's yards — there's also the remnants of the salt, sand, and gravel used to treat roadways.
When last week's freezing rain began to fall, some sand and fine gravel remained on Newnan streets from the earlier Jan. 28 snowstorm.
Coweta County crews will spend this week clearing storm debris from rights-of-way across the county, said Tom Corker, Coweta's communications manager. "This process is expected to take at least a week to complete, depending on weather conditions," he said.
Once all the storm debris is taken care of, "we will go back and sweep any residual sand," Corker said. That will be done with mechanical brooms, blowers, or hand brooms, separately or in combination, depending on the situation, he said.
To help make the winter storm cleanup easier for Coweta residents, the county is offering free disposal of yard debris for individuals at the construction and demolition landfill, located on Essie Mae Walker Road off Ishman Ballard Road.
The free disposal will be offered this week until the close of business on Saturday, March 1. The free offer is only for individual residents, not commercial haulers or contractors. Hours are 9 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. on Saturday.
Newnan crews began collecting storm debris on Monday. City residents can pile limbs and brush curbside, just like they do with yard waste. Residents are asked to "keep storm debris contained in as small a footprint as possible," said Gina Snider, public information officer.
The city of Newnan is continuing with its regular street sweeping operations, said Michael Klahr, city public works director.
The city runs two sweepers, and downtown streets are treated on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays, Klahr said. On Friday, the sweeper continues down Bullsboro Drive and/or Temple Avenue. Sweepers work other local streets the rest of the week.
"We have no plans to supplement our regular sweeping operations," Klahr said.
Some rain moved through Monday night, and more is forecast for several days this week and "this should be enough to hold down dust until we can pick up the sand and gravel with the sweepers," Klahr said.
"It is important not to allow the sand and gravel to enter the storm sewer systems, as this would increase pollutants into the state waters," he said.

SEP 12.1 GUP not updating its own IPS definitions
On recommendation from Symantec we just migrated from a multiple SEPM model to using GUP's on our remote sites. Seems to be workign great, bandwidth is good, clients are getting updated. Except for several of the GUP's.
They are downloading the correct update for all components from the SEPM, they ALL have the correct virus definitions but the IPS defintiongs on the GUP iteslf are not updating.
Hopefully I can be clear:
1. GUP is downloading all correct updates from SEPM (AntiVirus, IPS and Download insight etc)
2. Other clients in sub-net are getting all correct updates (AntiVirus AND IPS)
3. The client located on the GUP server is getting correct AntiVirus
4. Client on the GUP server has out of data IPS and will not update.
I was starting to lean towards the definitions being out of date but we have multiple GUP servers with the same problem.
When we rolled out the GUP model, it was phased, we did 3 servers first, then a few weeks later I did the remaining servers over the space of two weeks. The original servers that were changed in the first phase are working correctly, the other servers are all out of date IPS definitions.
The IPS definitions that are out of date are between one and two months old so they are pretty old.

can you post the sylink logs from this GUP client machine?

Allow Me to Introduce Myself
Filed under: Cable Management
Hello One and All,
My name is Shane and I'll be your new Social Media Person (SMP) here at CableOrganizer.com. Please, let me take five minutes of your time to introduce myself.
Webster's Dictionary defines "cable" as…hmmm, you know what? Too high school valedictorian-ish. Let me try that again, with some 21st century flair:
Urban Dictionary defines "cable" as…oh. Oh gosh. Don't go there. Ever. A little too 21st century. Let's find some happy middle ground, shall we?
Wikipedia defines "cable" as…hold on…scrolling through the "disambiguation" page…here we go…"Cable (Nathan Summers) is a fictional character appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics…He was born in the present Marvel timeline but was sent into a distant future." Yeah, that sounds about right.
Furthermore, an "organizer" is defined as a "small book or binder that is designed to be portable. It usually contains a diary, calendar, address book, blank paper, and other sections." So here I am, ready to…write a diary all about your favorite superhero (FROM THE FUTURE!)! No…no that's not it. I think I'm actually here to write important (and hopefully interesting) material to help you learn about all the wonderful products we offer at CableOrganizer.com, as well as helpful tips on using them. Yeah, that sounds right.
All jokes aside, I'm proud to be working for a company that is so customer-focused that it actually allowed me to write and publish an entire article about how high-end HDMI cables are basically a waste of money. And we sell cables. Seriously, your dog doesn't even love you that much. And neither does your cat, if you have one…I hate to be the one to break this to you, but your cat never loved you, or anyone else. Because it's a cat and it's full of disdain for all living things.
HDMI Cable Buyers Guide
Filed under: Cables and Wires, Desks and Workstations
HDMI cables come in a range of different forms but how do you know which one is best suited to your application? Here are some helpful tips when looking to buy HDMI cables for your application.
Tips When Buying A HDMI Cable
When choosing your HDMI cable it is best to measure the length needed so you can accommodate for the gap between your devices. HDMI cables come in a variety of different lengths to choose from and these can be anywhere from 1 to 12ft or more. Purchasing one a size up from your gap size allows for room to move or improve your connection at a later date.
The next best thing to consider when choosing a HDMI cable is to check which type of cable will be needed or best suited to your application. This can be done by checking the manual of your HDTV and the devices that you will be connecting it to. Check the supported HDMI rating and if they differ, for example your HDTV supports HDMI 1.1 while your game console supports HDMI 1.2 then choose the earliest type which in this case would be HDMI 1.1. In some cases it is said that choosing a HDMI cable rated 1.3 is also a good choice as this HDMI cable is designed to support backward compatibility which means it should support HDMI 1.3, 1.2, 1.1, and 1.0.
If you are purchasing multiple HDMI cables but don't have enough ports on your connected devices then you may need to look into a HDMI switcher. HDMI switchers allow you to easily connect multiple HDMI supported devices to the switcher which is then easily connected to your TV or the compatible devices.
Choosing a HDMI cable doesn't have to be hard. With the advancements in technology, you can easily purchase one at an affordable price that will work with your devices delivering clear video and audio each and every time.
Types of Audio and Video Cables and Their Uses
Filed under: Cables and Wires
Video and audio cables are used in everyday multimedia applications and setups. Although how much do you really know about the cables you are installing into your home. Here is some information on the different types of video and audio cables that are used and what they are designed to do.
Types OF Audio and Video Cables
HDMI cables: HDMI cables are made to provide support of HDMI connections between 2 devices. HDMI or High Definition Multimedia Interface refers to the first and only uncompressed, industry supported all video and audio interface which is capable of supporting a connection between an audio and video source. These cables are able to support high definition and standard video along with multiple channels of digital and audio over a single HDMI cable. They are ideal for connecting computer and hardware connections and are commonly used for high definition DVR connection to televisions.
DVI Cables: DVI cables are cables which are designed to support a connection between a video source and a display device which may include a computer monitor. DVI or digital visual interface is designed to provide transmission of uncompressed digital video and is configurable with supporting DVI-I (digital and analog), DVI-A (analog only), and DVI-D (digital only). With support for analog connections the specifications of DVI allows for compatibility with the VGA interface. DVI cables are generally used by computers although they are also sometimes used with video game consoles, DVD players, television sets and more.
VGA Cables: VGA cables are designed to support high definition video of 1080p or higher. VGA or Video Graphics Array interface is designed to provide a method of transferring a basic clear image to the viewing display such as a computer. VGA cables are made to use analog signals for easy transmission and are generally connected to computer systems.
HDMI Cables Information For Beginners
Filed under: Cables and Wires, Desks and Workstations
HDMI cables are used right across the world in home and business applications to create the perfect connection between two multimedia devices. But what exactly is HDMI? Here is some information about HDMI and what HDMI cables are used for that may help you to understand these cables better.
What is HDMI?
HDMI or as known High Definition Multimedia Interface is the only and first uncompressed, industry supported, all digital video and audio interface. HDMI delivers an interface between a video and audio source which can support standard, high definition or enhanced video along with multi-channel digital audio over a single cable. It can easily provide transmission of ATSC HDTV standards and is capable of supporting up to 8 channel digital audio while offering additional bandwidth which can accommodate for any future requirements of enhancements.
What Are HDMI Cables Used for?
A HDMI cable is a special cable which is designed to specially support HDMI connection from one device to another. This cable is generally for hardware and computer connections and is commonly used for connecting high definition DVRs to televisions. This cable is supported by most leading manufacturers of consumer electronics including, but not limited to, Toshiba, Sony, Philips, Panasonic, and Hitachi.
What Are The Benefits Of HDMI Cables
HDMI cables come with many benefits:
- One of the most common benefits of a HDMI cable is that it can easily provide uncompressed and superior quality of digital video and audio.
- Another benefit that a HDMI cable can deliver is that it provides a simple and single method of connecting two devices together without a large array of wiring and cables behind your devices.
- One more advantage of HDMI cables is that they provide a long life span as they don't use up their full capacity when connected with devices, allowing for adjustments in the future.
- Lastly it provides a convenient and popular method of transmitting high definition content which is supported by many people allowing for easy sharing of audio and video.
BTX Field-Terminable HDMI 1.3 Cable: Custom A/V With No Waste
Filed under: Cables and Wires, Home Theater
There's something about the word "custom" that always seems to make my heart beat a little faster, but then again, who doesn't drool at the thought of something being made just for them? For example, I love both books and creative architectural details, and there's this house in a historic neighborhood not far from where I live, which I've affectionately come to refer to as "bookshelf house" in honor of the gorgeous custom built-in bookcases (they're even lit, mind you) that are visible to passers-by when the house is lit up at night. You're just driving along, glancing casually at the passing homes, and then suddenly you get an eyeful of perfectly painted crimson walls set off by semi-ornate white bookshelves almost artistically loaded with a small library's worth of reading material. I can never resist giving that sight a longing, head-turning glance, and it's almost always inevitably followed by me returning home, walking into my guest room, and staring with disgust at the twin particleboard deals holding a hodgepodge of paperbacks and dust. I like to think that the owners of Bookshelf House must feel pretty darn smug.
While this particular example of custom lust is probably a little too old-school and tech-free for a blog that deals primarily with gadgets and cables, here's something that's not: Field-terminable HDMI cable from BTX Technologies. Whether you're fed up with home theater cables that are always longer than you need them to be or are just Jonesing for something made with only you and your sweet A/V setup in mind, you'll definitely want to take notice.
BTX's field-terminable cables are rated to HDMI 1.3 standards, and come in either round or ribbon styles, depending on whether you're planning on bundling them with neighboring cords (choose round), or routing them flat along the wall (that would be ribbon). The bulk cables are simply measured to the exact length you need (no more paying for or cable-managing a bunch of useless slack) and terminated with specially designed crimp-on connectors that achieve an even stronger connection than soldering.
Both the round and ribbon-style home theater cables are made to be ultra flexible, so they can take most tight bends and curves without risking breakage or attenuation. Durability is further enhanced by the connectors' additional extended plastic boot and strain relief, which gives your HDMI cables extra support just where they need it most.
Custom is now better than ever.
Cicoil Shielded Cat5e Cable: Tough Yet Flexible for Excellent Performance in Harsh Environments
Filed under: Cables and Wires
Cat5e cable is generally not one of those things that makes me stop and go "Oooooh!" Personally, I use it every day without even thinking about it, kind of like lip balm or tissues. I spend 8 hours a day sitting at a laptop whose Cat5e Ethernet cable provides me with a vital Internet connection and is never more than an inch or two from my left hand, yet I never give it even a second of thought or attention unless I need to unplug it to pack up my computer. How's that for appreciation?
I have to say, though, that my interest and admiration were piqued yesterday afternoon when I met the newest network cable to join our lineup. Cicoil® (pronounced "see-coil") Shielded Cat5e cable is very uniquely designed for use in manufacturing facilities, labs, and anywhere else where it's likely to be attached to moving machinery and subject to some serious EMI/RFI. What makes it so fascinating are the totally flat design and the ultra-flexible clear silicone jacket that envelopes the shielded conductors.
The silicone is extremely durable, but has a somewhat jelly-like flexibility and stretchability that is unlike anything I've ever seen in a cable jacket. It's a big part of what makes Cicoil Cat5e resilient enough to withstand up to 10,000,000 motion cycles (perfect for use with automated machinery that's in near-perpetual motion), and clean/non-polluting enough to use in laboratories and cleanrooms that require RoHS-compliant materials. And since silicone is great at resisting water, fire and chemicals, this shielded Cat5e is good to go in even the harshest environments.
Because it's such a specialized cable, Cicoil is sold be the foot, so you can order just what you need, without worrying about wasting money on extra that won't be used. While it comes unterminated in standard orders, you also have the option of paying a little extra to have it factory-terminated to your specifications. Either way, you're get something very, very good.
HDMI Adapters: Quit Bending HDMI Cables to Point Break
Filed under: Home Theater
These days, on the home entertainment cabling front, no one settles for anything less than HDMI. We've tossed our 3-part component and composite cables, and now only have eyes for the one-connector, all-inclusive digital wonder that is HDMI. Then why do we treat our HDMI cables so badly?
You know what I'm taking about. The way we smash and twist them to fit behind our shiny HDTVs. The way we bend them at angles that would make most contortionists shudder. Come on, people – HDMI cables have feelings, too! Well, maybe not feelings, but they do have very specific bend radius needs… needs that we, selfish entertainment hounds that we are, are constantly ignoring.
Ummmmmmm, bend radius? Yes, bend radius. It's the term that describes how tightly you can bend a cable before it cries "Uncle!" and either starts losing signal, or just stops working completely. As far as HDMIs go, there's no such thing as partial signal loss, like you might get with a data cable. They just quit on you altogether. Sigh. Sounds like it's time to clean up our acts, and start treating our home theater cables with a little more respect.
If you're worried that this self-improvement is going to mean moving your TV for the benefit of your HDMI cable, it doesn't. No compromise there. But it is going to take a little thing called an HDMI adapter, which is designed to snap right onto the end of an HDMI cable, and into the device of your choice. Sound like no big whoop? I'm not done yet. Vanco is making a line of special HDMI adapters that bend, swivel and rotate at the connector level, so that your cable remains straight (or almost straight) no matter how you need to position it, and keeps those gorgeous audio and video signals moving right along. Okay… now I'm done…
Vanco HDMI™ Extender Over Cat5e Cable
Filed under: Cables and Wires, Home Theater
So, you want to stretch the distance between your HDTV and a high-def source (like an HD-DVD player, Blu-Ray, or PS3 gaming console), but shudder to think of the search for, and cost of, a 100+ foot long HDMI cable? I feel your pain, but don't worry – you won't be in it long. Your worries, and HDMI-related budget woes, are about to melt away – at least they will as soon as you meet this Cat5e HDMI Extender from Vanco.
As you can probably tell from its name, this particular HDMI extender uses Cat5e cables (delightfully inexpensive Cat5e cables) to carry your HDMI signals from Point A to Point B. By now you're probably wondering, "How the heck do you get a decent high-def digital signal over a type of cable that's usually used for Ethernet connections?" Easy – it's all in the transmitter and receiver.
While it's called an extender, it's actually made up of two separate components – the above-mentioned transmitter and receiver. Using 2 short HDMI cables, the transmitter is connected to the high-definition source, and the receiver is connected to the display. From there, you just need to run 2 Cat5e cables between the transmitter and receiver. The transmitter starts out by translating the HDMI signal into the proper format for Cat5e. The modified signal then travels down the Cat5e cables to the receiver, where it's translated back into HDMI format, and fed through to the display. And there you have it, ladies and gents – long distance HDMI.
The Vanco HDMI Over Cat5e extender works for distances up to 200 feet, and the resolution can vary depending on how far you're sending the signal. Up to 100 feet, and the final resolution delivered is 1080p; for 100-165 feet, you get 1080i. When you push it anywhere from 165-200 feet, the resolution drops to 720p, but that's still high-def! The extender system also reduces annoying EMI and RFI, so you'll get the clearest audio and video possible.
Xtreme Cables Remote Controlled 4×1 HDMI Switch Box
Filed under: Home Theater
Gone are the days when home A/V setups were nothing more than a TV, a DVD player, and maybe some speakers. These days, we shell out for high-def Plasma and LCD screens, HD-DVD and Blu-ray players, gaming systems, and full SurroundSound. With the exception of speakers, just about every other element in our home theaters is connected to our TVs via HDMI cable. There isn't trouble with HDMI cables, per se, because they deliver the best digital signals out there, but what do you do if your TV doesn't have enough HDMI inputs to accommodate all of your home theater devices at once?
Considering that you've placed a pretty heavy investment into all of those fine electronics, you probably want to be able to use any device whenever you want, without the hassle of crawling behind your entertainment center to unplug your DVD player so you can free up an HDMI port for the PS3 system. Luckily, there's a way to kiss the old device-juggling routine goodbye: just work an Xtreme Cables 4×1 HDMI Switch Box into the mix.
Built to the latest HDMI standard (HDMI 1.3), this extremely compact switch (it's only 7″ x 3″ x 1″) packs quite a punch – it lets you connect up to four HDMI components to your HDTV using just a single cable. You just plug 4 HDMI devices into the switch, and then run the switch's cable up to one of your high-def screen's HDMI ports. Once that's done, you just use the included remote control to switch back and forth between devices as often as you want. And one of the really nice features of this product is that it's incredibly easy to install and use, even for home theater fans who aren't completely tech-savvy. There's no software or special programming required to get started – just plug and play.
The 4X1 HDMI Switch Box by Xtreme Cables supports resolutions that range from 480 to 1080, in both interlaced (i) and progressive scan (p) formats.
Sorry, this product has been discontinued.
VANCO 1080p Swivel HDMI Cable
Filed under: Cables and Wires, Home Theater
Want to get a terrible HDMI connection? First, make sure that your home theater components are squeezed into a very tight space; the closer to the wall or the back of your entertainment center, the better. Next, twist and bend your HDMI cable into tight angles to get it plugged into your DVD or Blu-Ray™ player. And finally, start your movie or video game and wait for the signal to eventually cut out on you – it's inevitable after all, since you've done everything in your power to damage your HDMI cable's conductor. There you have it, folks: the perfect recipe for home theater disaster.
Okay, I'm being facetious here – first of all, no one wants a failed high-def connection, and secondly, I would never encourage you to make that happen. The main idea here was to point out a common practice that can have you burning through an unending succession of HDMI cables. While you can't always avoid positioning A/V equipment against the wall or in the close quarters of an entertainment center, you can take steps to ensure that tight spaces don't become the death of your HDMI connection. Meet the VANCO Swivel HDMI Cable.
Perfect for plugging into a wall-mounted Plasma or LCD screen or home theater components stored in the aforementioned short-on-space cabinet, this HDMI cable is equipped with a 180° swiveling connector at each end, which means that the cable can flex and bend to make just about any difficult connection without putting undue stress on the conductor. This design feature lets the conductor do its job (transmitting clear signals) instead of squishing it into oblivion and rendering it useless. Can you see how this unique cable can save you both money and frustration?

Nyack College will not tolerate any type of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking committed by students, faculty, staff, or against any student, faculty or staff by any individual not belonging to the campus community. Sexual offenses in the State of New York are outlined under Article 130 of the NYS Penal Law. Nyack College recognizes domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking as defined in this document. Committing such offenses can result in lengthy terms of imprisonment and civil action.
Hostile Environment Harassment
Hostile Environment Harassment is the most common kind of harassment. It occurs when repeated offensive behavior or comments create an unpleasant or intimidating environment. This includes offensive statements, materials or gestures (whether by mail, electronic communication or personal encounter) that defame the character, dignity or respect of an individual, ethnicity or culture. Such behavior will not be tolerated and will be subject to disciplinary sanctions. Hostile Environment Harassment may also involve sexual comments or inappropriate touching on a one-time basis.
Sexual Harassment
Harassment on the basis of sex is a violation of New York State Law and the Federal Civil Rights Act. It is the policy of Nyack College to prohibit sexual harassment of its employees and students in any form. In maintaining this policy, the College seeks to assert basic Christian precepts, to affirm ethical standards universally accepted in the workplace and classroom, and uphold existing law. No practice or behavior that constitutes sexual harassment will be tolerated.
Sexual harassment is essentially a display of power intended to intimidate, coerce, embarrass or degrade another person. Usually the harasser has power over the victim (such as a supervisor over a subordinate or a larger person over one of smaller stature), and seeks to exploit unfairly that differential in power. In any form, such behavior undermines the atmosphere of trust and collegiality that Nyack College seeks to foster and is therefore unacceptable.
Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when (1) submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of employment or academic progress; (2) submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as a basis for academic or employment decisions affecting the individual, or (3) such conduct has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an individual's work or academic performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work or academic environment is illegal and immoral.
Sexual Assault and Date Rape
Sexual assault and date rape are extreme forms of sexual harassment. The use of threat or force to obtain sexual contact, including sexual intercourse, includes any of the following: (1) any intentional, nonconsensual touching or threat or attempt to touch an intimate body part of another person; (2) unwanted, inappropriate disrobing of another person or purposeful exposure of one's genitals to another; (3) forcing, or attempting to force, any other person to engage in sexual activity of any kind. By definition, a person who is intoxicated, unconscious, mentally impaired, or threatened is unable to give consent.
Nyack College describes stalking as any behaviors or activities occurring on more than one occasion that collectively instill fear in the victim, and/or threaten her or his safety, mental health, or physical health. Such behaviors and activities may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Non-consensual communication, including face-to-face, telephone calls, voice messages, text and instant messages or e-mails, written letters, unwanted gifts, etc.
- Threatening or obscene gestures;
- Pursuing or following;
- Surveillance or other types of observation;
- Trespassing;
- Vandalism;
- Non-consensual touching
*These offenses may result in additional charges.
Stalking behavior will not be tolerated. Incidents occurring on or off campus are subject to college discipline when such actions materially affect the learning environment or operations of the College.
Stalking is a crime under New York State law. Incidences of stalking outside New York State may be admissible in court, if it is relevant to the case and may be punishable as a Class B misdemeanor or a class D felony. Legal options available to victims of stalking include reporting to the local police, seeking a remedy through civil proceedings, and/or utilizing the campus disciplinary process.
Reporting a Student of Concern
For those in the Nyack community who teach, supervise, mentor and support our Nyack College students, the following guidelines may be helpful when you believe a student referral should be made.
- Immediate (but not an emergency): Contact either the Office of Student Development at (845) 675-4790 or x4790, Residence Life Professional Staff Area Coordinator on duty after 6:00PM at (845) 405-9038, or Campus Safety at (845) 222-8812 or x7191 if there is an immediate about the health or safety of a student. Please be sure to speak with someone in person so we can respond quickly.
- Ongoing but not an immediate health/safety concern: Contact the Dean of Students if your concern does not rise to an immediate health/safety level but you feel that the student could use an additional network of support. Possible referrals could include:
- A student who is missing a significant number of classes.
- A student who is expressing disturbing thoughts/feelings in written or oral work.
- A student who exhibits a change in usual behavior (onset of anxiety, anger, withdrawal).
- A student who shares a significant life event or incident that may be impacting his/her ability to be a student.
Upon getting the referral, typically within 24-48 hours, a member of the team will reach out to the student. The faculty/staff member's name will likely be used in the context of, "Faculty/staff X shared with me through our normal processes of caring for students that they are concerned about you and I am reaching out to you to offer resources and support." From there, the team member will work with the student to determine appropriate follow up measures.
Once the Student of Concern Committee has identified a student of concern, a decision is made to either address them individually or refer them to the Threat Assessment Team. Nyack College has established a second team entitled "Threat Assessment Team" to address situations where students may need further assessment due to an escalation of disruptive, threatening or worrisome behaviors that have the potential to impede their own academic progress or that have the potential to impede the ability of others to function successfully or safely.
It is imperative that any member of the Nyack College community – faculty, staff or students – immediately report any situation that could result in harm to anyone at the College.
Reporting an Employee of Concern
Workplace violence covers a wide range of disruptive behaviors that may include threats harassment, intimidation, bullying, assaults, stalking and domestic violence that enter the workplace. Lack of awareness and/or failure to commit to action are major contributors to violence in the workplace.
- Immediate (but not an emergency): Contact either the Office of Human Resources at (845) 675-4608 or x4608, or Campus Safety at (845) 222-8812 or x7191 (Rockland Campus) or at (646) 378-6198 or x6198 (Manhattan Campus) if there is an immediate concern about the health or safety of an employee. Please be sure to speak with someone in person so we can respond quickly.
- Ongoing but not an immediate health/safety concern: Contact the Director of Human Resources if your concern does not rise to an immediate health/safety level but you feel that the employee could use an additional network of support. Possible referrals could include:
- Job performance problems, such as inconsistent productivity, excessive tardiness and absenteeism, and poor relations with co-workers.
- Chronic, hypersensitive complaints about persecution or injustice.
- Holding grudges, inability to handle criticism, habitually making excuses, and blaming others
- Bizarre comments or behavior, especially if it includes violent content
Reporting Harassment
Any individual who believes that he/she has been the recipient of harassment is strongly encouraged to report the alleged occurrence(s) as soon as possible to a representative of the College with whom the individual feels comfortable discussing the matter (e.g., Residence Hall Director, Advisor, Student Development Staff member, Human Resources, etc.). The representative will then contact the Dean of Students if the alleged harasser is a student. If the alleged harasser is an employee of the College or a vendor/contractor of the College, the representative will contact the academic head at the respective campus or Human Resources. For instances of sexual harassment, students may also contact the Title IX Coordinator at (845) 675-4608.
Reporting Sexual Assault
If a member of the campus community is a victim of a sexual assault on campus, his/her first priority is to get to a place of safety. Nyack College strongly advocates that a victim of a sexual assault reports the incident in a timely manner. Time is a critical factor for evidence collection and preservation. They should obtain necessary medical treatment, and ideally a victim of sexual assault should not wash, douche, use the toilet, or change clothing prior to a medical exam.
If an individual has been sexually assaulted they should contact the following offices depending on their comfort level:
- Call Nyack College Campus Safety at x7191 OR (845) 222-8812
- Contact the local police department at (845) 358-0206 and file a police report*
- Students:
- Call the Residence Life On Duty Phone (845) 213-9145
- Call Counseling Services at (845) 675-4564
- Report it to the Resident Assistant on duty in your dorm
- Employees:
- Contact Human Resources at (845) 675-4608
Keep a journal of everything that occurs, including dates, places and times of events. When the communication is electronic, save any voicemails, e-mails, text and instant messages.
Reporting Stalking
If an individual believes they are being stalked they should contact the following offices depending on their comfort level:
- Call Nyack College Campus Safety x7191 OR (845) 222-8812
- Contact the local police department at (845) 358-0206 and file a police report*
- Students:
- Call the Residence Life On Duty Phone (845) 213-9145
- Report it to the Resident Assistant on duty in your dorm
- Employees:
- Contact Human Resources at (845) 675-4608
If you know the identity of the stalker, inquire about the possibility of obtaining a restraining order. Keep a journal of everything that occurs, including dates, places and times of events. When the communication is electronic, save any voicemails, e-mails, text and instant messages.
*Students and employees are not required to file a police report. Students can also contact Counseling Services, Residence Life, or Student Development for assistance in filing a police report. Employees may contact Human Resources for assistance in filing a police report.**
**Filing a police report will not obligate the victim to prosecute, nor will it subject the victim to scrutiny or judgmental opinions from officers. Filing a police report will:
- Ensure that a victim of sexual assault receives the necessary medical treatment and tests;
- Provide the opportunity for collection of helpful evidence helpful in prosecution, which cannot be obtained later (ideally a victim of sexual assault should not wash, douche, use the toilet, or change clothing prior to a medical exam);
- Assure the victim has access to free confidential counseling from counselors specifically trained in the area of sexual assault crisis intervention.
Confidentiality and Non-Retaliation
Confidentiality of complaints and parties will be preserved to the greatest extent possible, understanding that the College may have an obligation to take some action even if the complainant is reluctant to proceed. Parties and witnesses to a complaint are also expected to maintain confidentiality of the matter, understanding that they will often not have all the facts and that they could impair the investigation by divulging information to persons outside of the investigatory process.
Publicly available records involving any incidents will protect the identity of all parties involved to the extent permissible by law by referring to parties as "Complainant 1, Complainant 2, etc.," "Witness 1, Witness 2, etc.," and "Accused 1, Accused 2, etc."
All allegations of sexual harassment will be taken seriously and thoroughly investigated, with appropriate support for and respect of the alleged victim. If it is determined that an intentionally false accusation of sexual harassment has been made, this too will be investigated thoroughly and treated seriously.
The College prohibits retaliation against persons who in good faith report violations of this policy or cooperate in an investigation. The College also prohibits the filing of knowingly false or misleading reports and providing knowingly false or misleading information in an investigation. Discipline or other action can result from either of these acts in violation of this policy.
Services Available to Students and Employees
Anyone that reports that they themselves or someone has been a victim shall be provided this entire policy in writing.
Counseling and other support services are available to any victim of sex offenses through the Counseling Services Department in Boon Campus Center on the Nyack Campus and numerous public and private agencies in Rockland County. Informational resources and materials may be obtained at the Counseling Services Department, Health Services Department and Human Resources Office. A listing of local public and private agencies can also be found on the Nyack College Safety and Security website: http://www.nyack.edu/content/ImportantPhones.
Student victims have the option to change their academic and/or on-campus living situations after an alleged sexual assault, if such changes are reasonably available. Alternate on-campus living options may be discussed in conjunction with Residence Life and Auxiliary Services.
Depending on the particular allegations of a reported issue, employee victims may be given an adjustment to their work environment while an investigation proceeds. Whenever possible and appropriate, the interim adjustments would be made to the accused employee, rather than to the complainant. Such adjustments may include a work location change, supervisor change, work duties change and/or an administrative leave. Employees and their dependents may contact the Employee Assistance Program for confidential support, resources, and information. Human Resources can also assist with referral to professional counseling.
In accordance with the Violence Against Women Act (18 U.S. Code § 2265) Orders of Protection, No Contact Orders and Restraining Orders, regardless of in which jurisdiction they have been issued, can be filed with the College by bringing the actual order to Campus Safety. Once received, Campus Safety will file a copy with the local police department. The information in the order of protection, along with any other information, will be provided to all security personnel in order to reduce the possibilities of a violation of the order. If there is reason to believe that a person named in the Order has violated the court order while on the Nyack College campus, Campus Safety, Student Development, or Human Resources can assist the individual in reporting the incident to the appropriate police department.
Disciplinary Actions for Student Perpetrators
Any violation of this policy shall result in disciplinary action including, but not limited to, warning, reprimand, probation, suspension, expulsion or dismissal. Retaliation against an individual for bringing a sexual harassment complaint is prohibited by law and will lead to further disciplinary action. Nothing in this policy shall preclude a student from seeking redress through external legal proceedings.
Procedures for disciplinary action for allegations of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking committed by students are outlined in the Student Handbook section "Student Disciplinary Process." Investigation and proceedings related to allegations of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and/or stalking will be prompt, fair and impartial. Members of the Student Disciplinary Committee receive annual training on these issues and how to conduct investigations and hearing processes that protect the safety of the victims and promote accountability.
Since Title IX is a federal civil right, the appropriate standard of evidence is a "preponderance of the evidence." This standard of evidence means that a hearing must determine whether a complaint of sex discrimination is "more likely than not" to have occurred or 51% likely to have occurred. This standard applies for all complaints of sex discrimination, including sexual harassment and violence, because Title IX outlines standards for school disciplinary processes — not criminal complaints, which require the highest standard of evidence, "beyond a reasonable doubt."
Both the accuser and the accused can have an advisor of their choice available during all proceedings and any related meetings. They will both be informed in writing of:
- The outcome of the proceedings.
- The appeal procedure, which is also outlined in the Student Handbook.
- Any changes to the outcome of the proceedings before they become final.
- When the outcome is finalized.
Disciplinary Actions for Employee Perpetrators
Following the assessment, report, and recommendation of an Investigatory Committee, the administration will consider the presented recommendations and make decisions about employee disciplinary steps. Such disciplinary steps may include further education for an individual, further education for a work group, verbal discussion or counseling, written warning, suspension, demotion, transfer, reduction in salary, or termination.
Sexual Harassment and Assault Prevention
Nyack College educates the campus community about sexual harassment and assault throughout Campus. Primary prevention and awareness sessions are held during orientation for all incoming students. Sessions include the definitions of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual offenses (forcible and non-forcible), stalking, and lack of consent as outlined in this document. Sessions also include how to recognize abusive behavior, avoid potential attacks, and safe and positive options for a student intervene or prevent harm when there is risk of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking. These policies are also stated during all hall meetings held by residence life at the beginning of every semester. The Office of Counseling Services also provides applicable brochures in their office which are available to students.
On-going prevention and awareness training sessions are provided to students throughout the semester via workshops, special speakers, and other programs. These sessions include special workshops during the Sexuality Series sponsored by the Office of Spiritual Formations, and trainings held by the local police department. Services and programs that are available during the academic year are announced in the beginning of every semester during the campus wide mandatory all hall meetings. Students who accept leadership positions (Resident Assistants, Worship Leaders, Orientation Assistants) receive additional training the week prior to Fall Orientation on sexual harassment and assault prevention and how to act in a leadership role when these situations arise.
Prior to Fall orientation, Student Development staff is trained about awareness and prevention of sexual harassment. Human Resources is currently in the process of selecting a vendor to provide web-based training solutions to all employees. This vendor should be fully implemented by January 1, 2015. Following implementation, employees will annually complete web-based training on Sexual Harassment. Human Resources will monitor compliance with mandatory training. Employees are also invited, and sometimes required, to attend the prevention services and programs available to students.

Notebook: Christian Ponder could sit, Adrian Peterson nearing return
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- Christian Ponder likely won't play Sunday against the Detroit Lions if he can't practice Friday, while running back Adrian Peterson appears to be close to returning after missing two games because of a high left ankle sprain.
Ponder, the Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback, did not practice for the second day in a row Thursday because of a hip injury. Peterson, meanwhile, did limited work and coach Leslie Frazier seemed encouraged after the Pro Bowl running back was able to practice for the first time since he was injured on Nov. 20.
The Vikings plan to see how Peterson's ankle feels Friday morning and hope to get him back on the field to do some more work. "He's headed in the right direction, far more improved than he was a week ago," Frazier said.
Asked what was most encouraging, Frazier said it was Peterson's ability to plant and cut.
"He was much better in doing that (Thursday)," Frazier said. "That was one of our concerns because as we all know he's one of those guys who runs hard and he'll stop on a dime and cut in any direction. He was able to do that today without pain, so that was encouraging. We'll see how he does (Friday), how he feels when he wakes up (in the) morning."
Frazier made it clear that Peterson does not need to be at 100 percent to play.
"What is 100 percent for him?" Frazier said. "He's played a lot of games at less than 100 percent and played extremely well. So we'll have to make sure (Friday) that he can do the things he needs to do, if he's going to play in the game on Sunday."
Ponder, who is 1-5 since taking over as the Vikings' starting quarterback, did some work on the side Thursday. He was injured early in last Sunday's loss to Denver but did not leave the game.
Frazier said the Vikings are hoping Ponder can practice on Friday, adding that would serve as the indicator as to whether he will have a chance to play Sunday at Ford Field.
"If he's not able to do anything (Friday), I'd be hard-pressed for us to get him in the game," Frazier said. "We need to see him take some snaps and move around a little bit to make a decision about him playing. It would be tough to do something, if he can't do anything (Friday)."
Wednesday and Thursday are the two most important practices of the week in the NFL, so Ponder already has missed valuable time.
"When you consider he's a rookie," Frazier said, "any time missed as you're in preparation for a game sets you back. There's no question about it. You can't ignore that. But he's a guy who is invested in what we're doing in the classroom, he's at practice watching, he's paying attention. So he'll be up on what we're doing.
"It's just a matter of, 'Can he do the things he has to do as a quarterback?' One of the things he's done so well is escape pressure with his mobility. So if he can handle that part of it ... the mental part, he's exceptional when it comes to that. He'll get that. It's a matter of, 'Can I protect myself if for some reason things break down?'"
If Ponder can't go, Joe Webb will get the start for the Vikings.
"He's excited about this opportunity to get a chance to play if it comes to fruition," Frazier said. "We have a lot of confidence in Joe that he'll do a good job. I know the guys always rally around him, they like to see Joe out there playing, so we'll see what happens."
Harvin injures finger
Wide receiver Percy Harvin suffered a torn ligament in his finger during Wednesday's practice when he fell down trying to brace himself, according to Frazier.
Harvin was limited in practice Thursday but Frazier said he should be fine to play Sunday and will have the finger taped.
Also limited in practice Thursday were guard Steve Hutchinson (illness); defensive end Brian Robison (concussion); cornerback Asher Allen (shoulder); linebacker Chad Greenway (elbow); defensive end Everson Griffen (quadriceps); and tight end Visanthe Shiancoe (hand).
Robison had to pass the IMPACT test to get back on the field.
Linebacker E.J. Henderson (shoulder) and right guard Anthony Herrera (knee) both were listed on the injury report but did not miss any practice time.
Herrera earns honor
Herrera was selected as the Vikings winner of the Ed Block Courage Award. The honor, which was voted on by Herrera's teammates, goes to a player who exemplifies commitment to the principles of sportsmanship and courage. Each team has one player who receives the award.
Herrera returned this season after undergoing season-ending surgery last year to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee that he suffered in November against Green Bay. Herrera also had surgery to repair a triceps muscle during the offseason.
He missed four games this season because of an injury to the lateral collateral ligament in his left knee.
When healthy, Herrera has been the Vikings starting right guard since early in the 2007 season. He was signed as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee in 2004.
"As long as I've been doing this everyone always has counted me out and I've alwayed proved them wrong," Herrera said.
Herrera said he never doubted he would rebound from the ACL surgery.
"He's overcome so much," Frazier said. " ... Even looking back at his days in college. To think that he would one day play pro football there was nothing that indicated that he'd be a professional football player. Now to play as long as he has, and overcome some of the things he has overcome, it just tells you the type of character that he has.
"He's a tremendous person, a great competitor, a real good leader for our players and our team. Just happy to see good things happen to good people."
Cornerback Cedric Griffin, who tore the ACL in each knee in a two-year span, and linebacker E.J. Henderson, who broke his leg late in the 2009 season, won the award for the Vikings in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Too many breakdowns
Defensive coordinator Fred Pagac said three of the Broncos' four big plays Sunday were the result of breakdowns and mental mistakes by the Vikings.
"Those are things that you can't accept and you can't have," Pagac said.
Pagac said rookie Mistral Raymond, who started at free safety, wasn't directly at fault for any of the Broncos' big gains. "Mistakes were made, we have to correct those and move on," Pagac said of the entire secondary.
Showing improvement
Nose tackle Remi Ayodele, who has been a non-factor much of this season, played 24 snaps Sunday and had a sack and four tackles. It was his first sack of the season.
Ayodele is listed at 6-2, 318-pounds and there have been some questions about his conditioning.
"I'm not sure the shape factor has been a problem with him," Pagac said. "Maybe it's been the scheme or whatever, but he played better on Sunday and obviously had a pretty good sack and did some good things for us."
What happened?
The Broncos were able to pull within a point of the Vikings in the third quarter the play after Quan Crosby returned a kickoff 63 yards. Kicker Ryan Longwell had to make the tackle.
Mike Priefer, the Vikings special teams coordinator, said the fact rookie Brandon Burton was unable to get off a block proved costly.
"Brandon's got to get off that block and fill," Priefer said. "He knows that. He just didn't play the play like he normally should and it hurt us."
Part of the issue is that because of all the injuries the Vikings have, the personnel they use on special teams is being adjusted far more than usual.
"That's not an excuse, that's just reality right now and I've got to keep coaching them, I've got to stay on them, I've got to keep reminding them before the play what they're instructed to do," Priefer said.
"(Crosby's return is) just one of those game-changing plays that you don't want to have happen to your football team because we really were going to win the special-teams battle in my mind up until that point. Then they got the momentum going for their team and we just couldn't get it back."
Teaching tool
Atlanta wide receiver Kerry Meier was fined $20,000 by the NFL last week for an illegal blindside block to the head area of Vikings long snapper Cullen Loeffler after a Chris Kluwe punt during the Falcons' victory on Nov. 27 at the Georgia Dome.
Loeffler broke a bone in his lower back and is out for the remainder of the season.
Priefer said that hit will be part of the training tape he puts together to show his players. The NFL does not allow such hits and changed the rule about a year ago, according to Priefer.
"Most rookies don't understand that," Priefer said. "It was borderline (whether it was dirty). It was away from the play, probably head-to-head. I'm glad for Cullen's sake that he got fined, but it doesn't bring Cullen back any quicker, unfortunately."
Quick hits
• Raymond was called for holding on one Vikings punt return against Denver and for an illegal block above the waist on another. Both came in the second quarter. So what happened? "It's either (him being) jacked up or just being a rookie," Priefer said. "He tackled the one guy after they had him blocked. He and Benny Sapp were doing a great job of holding him up and he tackled him. It's baffling. That second one, right at the point of attack, he made a poor decision. We talk about it ad nauseam, it drives me crazy. Hopefully, we'll get better in the last four weeks and build on that."
• With Marcus Sherels seeing time on defense and multiple special-teams units, the Vikings have considered using either Asher Allen, Greg Camarillo or Lorenzo Booker on punt returns. Sherels is averaging 8.4 yards on 30 returns this season and, for now, will remain in the return role, according to Priefer.
• Seven players did not take part in practice for the Lions on Thursday, including safeties Louis Delmas (knee) and Amari Spievey (illness), defensive tackle Nick Fairley (foot), linebacker Jason Durant (hamstring), cornerback Chris Houston (knee), defensive end Lawrence Jackson (thigh) and running back Kevin Smith (ankle). Cornerback Brandon McDonald (thigh), guard Rob Sims (shoulder) and defensive end Willie Young (ankle) were limited.

Why do people love firemen? People love firemen because when
everyone else is running out of a burning building, they're running
in. It's easier to run away. Caregivers are running into the burning
building. Other people care, but they don't know what to do, so
they run away.
―Chuck's mother
No first-time caregiver should face cancer caregiving without this book in hand. It offers keys to unlocking the dilemmas of cancer
caregiving so you can take charge as a knowledgeable advocate for
your patient.
This book is the first to capture the thoughts, feelings, and insights
of cancer caregivers on a large scale. Things I Wish I'd Known shares what 95 interviewees and dozens of others who were consulted informally wish they had known at the outset of their caregiving journeys.
In this book, practical lessons drawn from caregivers' experiences are intermingled with their own words and most intimate feelings to forge a compelling narrative about the full range of issues you'll face as caregiver or patient.
The lessons provide building blocks on which you can rely as you participate in decision-making and plan for the future.
You will learn about caregiver considerations in:
Getting a clear diagnosis
Gathering information
Choosing treatment partners
Making treatment decisions (including complementary and
alternative treatments and palliative care)
Getting inside the caregiver role
Accessing available resources (including clinical trials)
Managing financial and legal issues
Seeking normalcy during treatment
Confronting issues facing families with children
(children in a household with cancer, and children as patients)
Managing caregiver emotions and health
Nearing life's end
Preparing for the aftermath (including how caregivers heal)
Anticipating how cancer changes caregivers

Masculine Dynamism—Men's Care Growing Fast
By: Carrie Lennard, Euromonitor International
Posted: December 6, 2010, from the December 2010 issue of GCI Magazine.
page 2 of 4Along with razors and blades, deodorants comprise the overwhelming majority of sales globally—the three product types combined accounted for a 39% value share of total men's grooming in 2009. Other categories in men's care are still in their infancy in many regions, but are seeing dynamic growth rates. Facing weak growth opportunities in razors and blades in some of the more mature markets, brand owners are expected to continue their push to develop male-specific product categories—leveraging the fact that male consumer's mindset about beauty has shifted and the well-groomed male is likely to remain.
Strong Growth in Skin Care, But From a Small Base
Men's skin care was the star category in 2009, with growth of 7%, and is beginning to emulate the trends in female skin care—with many products now featuring antiaging, SPF and self-tanning properties. There is much room for further growth in the category. While recognizing the importance of a skin care regimen, many men do not feel comfortable about buying a female or unisex version of such an overtly feminine product, and this is set to keep male skin care sales strong. Skin care will continue to outperform other men's grooming categories through 2014. Men's skin care is the most dynamic category in most regions, mimicking the product types seen in women's skin care.
Men's antiagers is a particular area of male skin care that is showing very strong potential for the future. Signs of aging are a growing concern for men, especially those in youth-obsessed industries such as advertising. While older men, the key target audience for antiagers, are still reluctant to enter male beauty aisles, they are an attractive potential market.
Hair Care Value Growth Lags Behind Skin Care
Despite strong growth rates seen in most other categories of men's grooming, men's hair care is developing at a slower pace, growing by just 4% in value terms in 2009—a weaker performance than the 5% registered by men's grooming as a whole. Men's hair care still accounts for a bigger chunk of sales than skin care, at $2.9 billion in 2009 compared to skin care's $1.8 billion. However, skin care is set to outpace hair care before long. Male skin care is set to add $950 million to its value size by 2014 compared to just over $580 million for men's hair care, meaning that men's skin care is undoubtedly the star performer in men's grooming.
One of the key reasons behind this is the perception by many men that it is acceptable to simply use unisex shampoo, or their existing shower gel. Furthermore, hair care as a whole was also one of the categories to suffer most during the global economic downturn, and trends in men's grooming frequently mimic trends in the beauty market as a whole.

Flour: it's not just for baking! There are lots of interesting uses for flour around your house. Check out these 16 ways to use flour in your crafting, DIY beauty routine, and in your home and garden.
The cool part about replacing items in your day-to-day with homemade alternatives is that you get to opt out of the harmful chemicals that are often in the ingredients list of the store-bought alternatives. You also get to skip the extra packaging. Things like glue, face creams, and cleaners tend to come in single-use plastic packaging. When you make your own, you skip that waste.

White flour might not be the healthiest for baking bread, but there are a myriad of alternate uses for flour that don't involve eating it. Most of the flour recipes I've gathered here are for white flour, but some call of other sorts of flour, like rice or chickpea. You can often find these types of specialty flours at the grocery store or co-op. If stores near you don't seem to stock them, though, you can also find them online.

Campaign will find Wholey's 'Smiling Fish' sign new home
Pittsburgh residents can save a gigantic fish sign that's beckoned customers to a Strip District market for more than two decades.
Mayor-elect Bill Peduto and Jim Wholey, president of Robert Wholey & Co., announced on Monday they would collect suggestions until Jan. 31 on where to put the Wholey's "Smiling Fish" sign, a 100-by-60-foot Strip District icon made of light bulbs.
"That's part of the cultural fabric of Pittsburgh," Wholey said. "We owe it to Pittsburgh to let (residents) decide where the fish should go."
Wherever it goes, Wholey's will pay to have the sign installed and the monthly electric bill required to light it, he said.
People can put their ideas in red boxes marked with smiling fish stickers at Wholey's in the Strip or make suggestions via the Twitter hashtag #smilingfish or e-mail address firstname.lastname@example.com.
Residents said they preferred to see it remain in its current location atop the former Federal Cold Storage building at 1501 Penn Ave.
"If it has to be moved, I'd say it should go to the South Side (Slopes) or Mt. Washington near the Bayer sign," said Missy Grass, 40, of Carrick. "Everybody would be able to see it there."
The sign was a Christmas gift from employees to Robert Wholey Sr., who died in 1998.
Sampson Morris Group, a Monroeville real estate firm that bought the former cold storage warehouse in 2007, is planning to renovate it into a 144-unit apartment building. The developer plans to remove the sign.
Peduto promised that the city would try to eliminate red tape that could delay the fish sign from finding a new home.
"For 25 years that smiling fish has been looking down over the city of Pittsburgh," he said. "When we bring in the new, we don't want to throw out the old."
The incoming mayor suggested the Heinz History Center might want the sign.
Mt. Washington resident Gordon Kennedy, 55, said the museum would be a good place for it.
"I don't really care to see it," he said.
