Frequently Asked Questions
1. Where does the name "Mount Royal Academy" come from?
The school's namesake comes from the hill upon which St. Andre courageously undertook the daunting task of building a bascilia in honor of St. Joseph. St. Joseph's bascilica sits on that very hill today, and it is one of the major pilgrimage sites of North America. Our school shares the very same patron - St. Joseph. St. Andre used to bury St. Joseph statues in the hillside as a gesture of trust in his intercession. It is uncertain how many faithful members of the Mount Royal school community have placed St. Joseph statues in our campus hillside, but we are confident that His intercession has obtained many favors and blessings for our school community.
2. What is your relationship with the diocese of Manchester?
Mount Royal is the first lay-founded school to be approved by the Catholic diocese of Manchester. MRA was formally recognized by the bishop in 2000, giving our school community the greatest gift we could ever receive, the Eucharistic presence of Jesus Christ on campus. The school operates independently of the diocese, with its own governing board of trustees overseeing all the major financial, development, and personnel decisions.
3. What makes the mission of Mount Royal different?
The mission of Mount Royal is to teach the whole person, one student at a time. The personal nature of instruction is exemplified in the positive relationships shared between teachers, students, and parents.
4. What is the average class size?
The average class size for the Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten classrooms is 10 students. In grades 1 - 8, the average class size is 19.5 students. Classes in the high school average 12 students per class.
5. Does Mount Royal Academy conduct standardized tests?
Starting in grade 1, students annually take the IOWA tests to measure overall academic achievement. The IOWA test is administered to grade levels 1 - 8, and MRA students traditionally score much higher than the national average in all academic subjects and competencies. High school students are required to take the PSAT in 10th grade, and college advisors assist students in registering for the SAT, ACT at other sites.
6. Are students required to wear uniforms?
Students are expected to wear formal uniforms. Once a week students are allowed to wear school sanctioned gym uniforms, usually on days when they are receiving physical education instruction. Tag Days are frequently allowed during the school year, giving students the opportunity to wear casual clothes in exchange for a charitable donation to a nearby social organization.
7. Do you teach foreign languages?
Yes, as a matter of fact, foreign languages are offered across all grade levels in an age-appropriate manner. Students in PreK and K learn French. Beginning in grade 5, students are exposed to three languages in a trimester sequence: French, Spanish, and Latin. There is a Latin I pre-requisite in high school, both as an extension of our classical curriculum, but also to help students prepare for the SAT's. French and Spanish are also offered at the high school level.
8. When does the school day begin and end?
The school day begins at 8:00am and concludes by 2:15pm.
9. How much homework is assigned?
The amount of homework assigned depends on the grade level. Students begin completing formal homework assignments in the first grade. By the fifth grade, students can expect approximately 30 - 45 minutes of homework a night. In the junior high students typically are assigned a minimum of 60 minutes of homework. High school students can expect at least 90 minutes of homework a night. Teachers continually communicate about the amount of homework assigned in order to help students balance various duties and obligations.
10. Is physical education offered as a formal class?
Yes, students receive physical education class weekly across all grade levels.
11. Are there sports teams?
Yes, currently boys/girls soccer, boys/girls basketball, cross country, swimming, alpine skiing, and outdoor track are offered at the high school level. Students in 7th/8th grade are allowed to try out for sports teams. Mount Royal Academy is a member school of the NHIAA.
12. What is the role of Catholicism at Mount Royal Academy?
The Catholic identity of Mount Royal Academy is the most defining characteristic of our school community. Our Catholic identity influences how we teach, how we coach, how we play, and how we pray. Students begin each day with catechesis or theology class. Mass is offered on campus each Monday. School is cancelled on holy days of obligation except for All Saints because of school tradition. We gather together every friday to pray the rosary, and during lent we make the stations of the cross on Fridays instead. All high school students need 4 credits of theology in order to graduate. There is a unique focus on both formation and information. Students are challenged to improve themselves intellectually, morally, and spiritually.
13. Are afterschool enrichment opportunities offered to all students?
Younger students can be placed into the afterschool program if working parents find it difficult to make it to school by 2:15pm. There are a variety of campus clubs and sports teams that meet or practice after school (Campus Ministry, Chess Club, International Club, Newspaper, Robotics Club, Math Team)
14. Can our family become a part of Mount Royal even if we are not Catholic?
Of course. As a matter of fact, over 40% of students enrolled in Mount Royal are non-Catholic. We wouldn't be a Catholic school if we didn't open our doors to people of all faiths or even no faith.
15. What type of opportunites are available for parents to become involved?
There is a family service for fundraising progam that all parents are encouraged to participate in order to improve the financial solvency of the school. HASA (Home and School Association) is the formal parent group that supports teachers and administrators. All parents are welcome to offer their time and energy to the school in whatever way they feel comfortable.
16. Are students expected to perform community service?
Students are asked to give to others across all grade levels in a way that is appropriate to their abilities. Each time we meet as a school community, older students are paired with younger students to help them be engaged and attentive. Elder classrooms are even assigned little buddies occasionally at lunch time or for school projects. High school students are expected to complete a comprehensive service portfolio in order to graduate.
17. Are there any deadlines for admissions?
MRA has a rolling admissions policy. Families are encouraged to visit the school and fill out an application at any time. Our administration and admissions team recognizes that each family deals with unique circumstances. We strive to be as present and accomodating as Christ.

According to GPOne, Cal was given a factory M1 for the Brno test. I don't know if that's true or not, but I do know he was testing for Yamaha that day rather than Tech 3. And if you look at the fact that both Spies and Dovi (both future Duc pilots) packed up and left early with nothing to do while Crutchlow tested all day, it does suggest that Yamaha might be investing a little more into him now.
If they're not then I hope his new contract stipulates it for next year, because there are going to be 4 full factory Dukes on the grid and at least 3 full factory Hondas. Yamaha are going to be outgunned unless they step up and level out the numbers.

The introduction of new treatments for patients with localized and advanced cancer has made this an exciting time to be a medical oncologist. After I finished my training in 2005, I decided to stay at Fox Chase to pursue my research in how cancer affects both individuals and populations. Within the Genitourinary Malignancy Division, I work with other researchers to develop new treatments for prostate, urothelial, kidney and testicular cancers. I am an active clinical investigator and am able to offer patients both standard therapy as well as novel therapies through well-conducted clinical trials. As an investigator involved in recent trials that ultimately led to approval of new therapies for kidney and prostate cancer, I truly believe that clinical trials improve cancer care for current and future patients.
I enjoy taking care of patients across the age spectrum, and have been fortunate to get to know many of my patients and their families very well. I believe that it is my responsibility to help patients and families arrive at a treatment decision that improves their outcomes and reflects their preferences and beliefs.
I enjoy working my colleagues in the Genitourinary Malignancy Division at Fox Chase. All of the clinicians (Physicians, Advanced Practice Clinicians, Nurses and Medical Assistants) work closely together to ensure that care is as coordinated as possible.
Working at Fox Chase has provided me the opportunity to treat patients as well as pursue cancer research. Although I see primarily patients with genitourinary malignancies, the academic environment allows me to stay aware of new advances in other disease sites. I often use this knowledge in caring for my own patients.

I am deeply offended by Time Magazine's decision to run a cover story about Ann Coulter on the 10th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing.
As a major media outlet, I would like to think that your company had more sense than to write a puff piece on Ms. Coulter, especially given her animosity to mainstream media in general. She is a partisan demagogue devoted to destroying the great democratic tradition of this country by being a tireless advocate of single-party Republican rule. Her "humble" beginnings as one of "The Elves" -- a band of neo-conservative idealogues bent on the destruction of Bill Clinton's presidency -- should give anyone pause when assessing her journalistic credibility. Her role in the "new media" was to spread misinformation about the political positions of the American left as surrogate for the Republican Party in general, and Richard Mellon Scaife in particular.
Her vile invective against people with whom she does not agree has no place in the public discourse. Comments like "my only regret" about the people that perished in the Oklahoma City bombing "was that Tim McVeigh did not go to the New York Times building," even with the shoddy disclaimer that she only wished that reporters and editors had been killed, is simply beyond the pale. Not only does it dishonor the memory of the senseless murder of 168 innocent people, the fact that a bastion of American journalism would glorify the career of a woman who advocates the murder of journalists -- even in "jest" -- disgraces, debases, and dishonors the practice of journalism.
There is a long tradition in the journalistic craft within my family. My grandfather worked for the Chicago Daily News and the Chicago Sun-Times, my father worked for the Danville Commercial-News, and my step-father works for the Battle Creek Inquirer. I shudder to think that anyone would find her comments about murdering journalists "cute" or "part of the agitprop" were some terrorist bomb to have blown up one of these institutions of the Fourth Estate in lieu of destroying the Murrah Building.
And as far as the notion that she is merely being provocative? Please. Lenny Bruce, she is not. Bill Hicks, she is not. H.L. Mencken, she is not. Hunter S. Thompson, she is not. She is neither comedienne nor journalist, nor is she possessed of any special insight or genius. She is a sorry footnote to a sorry campaign to destroy American progress in the name of conservative hegemony.
Has Time Magazine sunk to such depths of self-loathing that it feels it must demonstrate kinship with one of the most disgusting practitioners of right-wing conservative advocacy, even at the expense of whatever shreds of journalistic integrity that your institution still might pretend to hold?

Since two weeks ago my left tricep starts hurting even during the warm up sets of my CGBP. It hurts so much that I just don't do them. Before CGBP I've done my chest which consists of BB Bench, Incline DB Press, Pec Deck. After this I do CGBP and then move onto dips or skull crushers (Perferably dips but it all depends on how busy it is at the gym)
2 weeks ago when I did my warm up set I thought I fooked up my left tri because it hurt bad. I walked around a bit, massaging it. Then thought I'd try dips. No problem I thought!! I went to do CGBP and again pain. First thing I thought was that maybe my form was off, but I had someone watch me that I trusted, and I had proper form. Is there something I'm missing? Anyone get into a similar mess?

Ever wish you had someone who could take over for you whenever you've got to do something... boring? The latest Black Ops 2 trailer plays into that fantasy, introducing us to the Replacer, a fellow who will replace you for all of life's lamest moments so you can play the new Black Ops 2 "Revolution" DLC instead. Granted, I wouldn't call the birth of your child boring or lame, but hey, some people just have strange priorities.
So anyway, to prepare you for the newly released Revolution Map Pack -- Xbox 360 only for the time being -- here's the new trailer. Whether or not you're planning to get the new DLC, this is actually pretty damn funny.

The State CDR team was created in November 1994. In October 2008, legislation was enacted in Pennsylvania mandating the CDR Program. This law became effective in January 2009 and is referred to as Act 87. Statewide and county-based CDR teams conduct reviews of all deaths of children age 21 and under. Currently, there are 61 CDR teams throughout Pennsylvania. The teams are comprised of medical professionals, social workers, district attorneys, coroners, children and youth agencies, nurses, and others.
CDR teams analyze data in order to develop the most effective prevention strategies to reduce the number of preventable child deaths in Pennsylvania. The teams design prevention education, trainings, and recommendations for legislation and public policy.
The CDR program is administered by the Pennsylvania Departments of Health and Public Welfare through a grant with the Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Within the Department of Health, staff support for this program is provided through the Division of Child and Adult Health Services in the Bureau of Family Health.

Billionaire Leon Cooperman of Omega Advisors has upped his stake over 88% in a monster dividend paying oil and gas company. Per a recent SEC filing, Cooperman now owns 2.87 million shares, or 7.2% of the outstanding shares, of Atlas Resource Partners (NYSE:ARP), which pays a dividend that yields 8.5%.At the end of the third quarter, Cooperman owned only 1.52 million shares.
Keeping it in the family. Cooperman is actually a big fan of all of the Atlas companies, not just Atlas Resource Partners. Cooperman also owns Atlas Energy (NYSE:ATLS) and Atlas Pipeline Partners(NYSE:APL). At the end of the third quarter Cooperman had Atlas Energy as his 13th largest 13F holding, or 2.67% of his portfolio, and had Atlas Pipeline as his 6th largest, at 3.42% of his portfolio.
Atlas as a whole. Atlas Energy is a master limited partnership that owns all the general partner units of Atlas Resource Partners and 44% of the limited partner interests in its upstream subsidiary Atlas Resource Partners. So Atlas Energy is collecting a large part of the dividends paid out by Atlas Resource Partners. Atlas Energy also owns the general partner of its midstream oil and gas subsidiary Atlas Pipeline Partners.
The outlook for the oil and gas industry is positive, which indeed bodes well for the industry. U.S. GDP is expected to grow 3.0% in 2013, according to S&P, versus the expected 2.3% in 2012. Also helping the oil and gas outlook is the Energy Information Administration's estimates that natural gas consumption is expected to rise 0.6% in 2013.
Other major oil and gas companies in the industry includes Range Resources Corp. (NYSE:RRC) and Continental Resources, Inc. (NYSE:CLR). It has been speculated that Chevron, with its robust cash position, could be interested in snatching up more assets or companies, including Range or Continental. Continental has the best position in the highly popular Bakken shale, owning over 900,000 acres. Check out how Continental stacks up in the Bakken:
Continental would be a great opportunity for Chevron to further expand its asset base into another highly productive shale play, the Bakken. Range, on the other hand, is a stable oil and gas company in the Marcellus shale, owning over 900,000 acres there. Range Resources' assets would be a solid addition to the some 480,000 acres in the Marcellus shale that Chevron bought from Atlas Energy in 2011.
Continental would be a great opportunity for Chevron to further expand its asset base into another highly productive shale play, the Bakken. Range, on the other hand, is a stable oil and gas company in the Marcellus shale, owning over 900,000 acres there. Range Resources' assets would be a solid addition to the some 480,000 acres in the Marcellus shale that Chevron bought from Atlas Energy in 2011.
Both companies have also been showing strength in their production numbers. Range Resources recently released fourth quarter production numbers that showed production was up 35% for the quarter on a year over year basis, with liquids (oil and natural gas liquids) leading the way, and production for that segment was up 41%. This was the ninth consecutive year of double-digit production growth. Continental Resources also recently reported production results. This oil and gas company showed full year 2012 production up 58% year over year.
I still prefer Atlas to either Continental or Range Resources, and worth noting is that Continental does not pay a dividend, and the dividend yield for Range Resources is only 0.2%. Atlas Resource is also well below the other two on a price to book and price to sales basis.
Atlas' robust production growth. Production has been on the rise for both Atlas Resource and Atlas Pipeline. For the first nine months of 2012, Atlas Resource produced 60,531 Mcfd of natural gas, compared to the 31,687 Mcfd in 2011, almost 50% production growth. Meanwhile, total production costs fell from $1.15 per Mcfe to $0.92 per Mcfe for the same time period.
As for its sister company Atlas Pipeline, the company gathered 35% more gas and processed 31% more for the first nine months of 2012, compared to the same period in 2011.
Dividend on the rise. The production growth is expected to continue and translate into doubling revenues for Atlas Resource 2013, in part thanks to its $255 million North Texas acquisition that added 250 wells and 88,000 acres to its portfolio. This will help the company meet expectations to pay out between $2.35 and $2.50 a unit in 2013. If the oil and gas company does manage to pay out $2.35 per unit (and in accordance to the sliding scale below) in dividends, at the stock's current trading range its dividend yield would be upwards of 10%.
As Atlas Resource ramps up production thanks to its newly acquired assets, the benefits could be recognized for both Atlas Resource and Atlas Energy shareholders. According to Atlas Energy and Atlas Resource partnership agreement, Atlas Resource must distribute 100% of all available cash to unit holders. This is initially set up as a 98% (limited partners) and 2% (general partner) split, but as the amount of cash available for distribution increases, so does Atlas Energy's (Atlas Resource's general partner) share of the cash. Here is how the distribution rights from Atlas Resource to Atlas Energy shakeout:
- 13% of all cash distributed in any quarter after each common unit has received $0.46
- 23% of all cash distributed in any quarter after each common unit has received $0.50
- 48% of all cash distributed in any quarter after each common unit has received $0.60
For investors bullish on the entire industry, a good pick could be Atlas Energy, which has exposure to the production, gathering, and processing of natural gas.
Don't be fooled. The Atlas Resource dividend is high, and in the context of the company alone might appear to be too high--but with the backing of Atlas Energy, this could well be an underappreciated dividend payer. The oil and gas company also has a healthy balance sheet when compared to major peers:
Although Cooperman appears to be one of the few hedge fund interested in Atlas Resource Partners, it doesn't mean investors shouldn't give the company a look

Timothy M. Donohue, Esq.
Timothy Donohue is a successful and seasoned trial attorney. He has been consistently recognized by his peers and adversaries for inclusion on the list of New Jersey Super Lawyers and Best Lawyers in America. Tim specializes in defending persons accused of white collar crimes.
With over 25 years of experience in criminal law, Mr. Donohue has handled a wide variety of white collar criminal cases. While most clients are referred to Tim because of his extensive trial and appellate skills, he is most proud of his ability to resolve criminal cases before a costly public trial. He prides himself on his ability to provide effective solutions to clients threatened with criminal prosecution. Mr. Donohue has observed: The filing of charges can be devastating to a client's reputation and business. The key in a white collar case is getting into the case before the government has locked into its position regarding my client. Frequently, with creative lawyering, I can convince the government that my client should not be charged at all. In a political corruption case, Tim was able to convince the government not to prosecute his client by presenting another witness's interpretation of a crucial conversation. In two recent cases, Mr. Donohue successfully defended two executives in the insurance industry and was able to avoid prosecution completely by developing evidence demonstrating their innocence, including a polygraph report. Because of his excellent reputation among his adversaries, Tim has often been able to negotiate excellent resolutions for his clients long before charges have been brought. Many of these triumphs are never publicly heralded, and are known only by his clients.
Mr. Donohue has tried criminal jury trials in both federal and state court. Over the last decade, he has tried cases involving charges of bank fraud, money laundering, wire and mail fraud, RICO, and tax fraud. Tim has also successfully handled a wide variety of matters at the grand jury stage, involving charges of environmental crime, healthcare fraud and other business related crimes. In addition to his extensive trial practice, Tim has handled complex appeals for his clients in the New Jersey Supreme Court, the Appellate Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit and the United States Supreme Court.
Tim has been routinely recognized in the publication Best Lawyers in America, and by other periodicals and authorities for inclusion in criminal matters. For many years, he has been named by his peers to be included in New Jersey Super Lawyers. His selection has been featured in New Jersey Monthly Magazine, New York Magazine and other publications. Tim has achieved the highest rating for his legal abilities and ethics, earning an AV rating by Martindale-Hubbell, a well-known attorney rating resource. In fact, most of Tim's criminal defense clients are referred to him by other lawyers who know of his outstanding reputation in the community and his expertise in that area.
Mr. Donohue has represented a wide variety of private and public figures over the years. In the private sector, he has represented licensed professionals, including doctors, lawyers, judges, accountants and investment advisors as well as professional athletes and owners. Tim has consulted for corporations and business owners (large and small) and has represented individuals from all walks of life. Over the years, Tim has been retained by a number of prominent, publicly elected officials and by appointed officials at all levels of state, county and local government (including many members of law enforcement). He currently serves as counsel to various governmental bodies at the state and local levels. Mr. Donohue also provides consulting and strategic advice to businesses and individuals on compliance issues and methods of avoiding costly litigation. He has participated in countless public and private internal investigations in order to evaluate potential exposure for criminal and civil liability.
Tim Donohue received his J.D. degree magna cum laude from Seton Hall University Law School in 1984. He attended law school in the evenings while working full-time. During this time, he was recognized for his writing ability and scholarship, and was chosen to serve as an Associate Editor of the prestigious Seton Hall Law Review. After graduating from law school, Tim served as a law clerk for the Honorable Dickinson R. Debevoise, a United States District Judge in federal district court in Newark, New Jersey.
Prior to law school, Mr. Donohue attended Seton Hall University and graduated cum laude in 1980 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Secondary Education and English. In fact, he still has his New Jersey teacher's license. Tim previously taught legal writing as an adjunct Professor at Seton Hall Law. Mr. Donohue has lectured throughout the state on criminal and civil trial techniques, grand jury practice and representing white collar criminal defendants. He has also served as an expert commentator for Court TV, the Associated Press and other media outlets.

Unable to get replacement parts in Canada?

from B.c.
Product worked well until tube was damaged. The number in the brochure will not ship to Canada. The web site comes up as insecure? What now? Just trash?
disappointing quality
By M
from SASKATOON
Bought this for my father. He felt the sound was ok, not great but helped enough. It is impossible for him to use on his own as the delicate little pieces for the tubing are too small for him to manage. I don't understand the reason for the dome end being a separate part to attach to the little tube. It doesn't attach securely and falls off so easily from the tube. Therefore we were only using it for important outings like doc appts etc. Well the dome finally fell off without us realizing and who knows where it wound up falling. So it is rendered useless now. For such a delicate piece of kit the dome doesn't need to be a separate tiny piece that barely stays attached to the end of the little tube. With this design they really should include a few extra domes with the product and the shopping channel should carry replacements.
Not the best warranty
By Dave
from Seaforth Ontario
The product work quite well for about 6 months and then it stopped recharging. I called the 800 number and was given instructions for mailing to New York state to honour the warranty. It cost over $16 to mail it . I got it back by UPS 7 weeks later and had to pay another $27. in custom fees. They did replace the whole package that was first ordered. Over all it does work fine.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Didn't work
By kd
from Toronto
I got this for my 81 year old mom. The smaller hearing tubes didn't do anything for her. The larger hearing tube was impossible to put on. The unit itself wouldn't charge after the first use. Sorry. Went back. I'm very disappointed as she had to spend $3,000 to buy a hearing aid that works for her. Hope it works better for others.
rca ear piece
By MARJORIE
from PIERREFONDS
Hi I am quite pleased with this product the actual sound part is excellent but could do with a change in design to make it more secure on the back of the ear. the tubes could be more secure. E.g. the big tube should come in one piece not three and the thinner tube has to be more secure in the ear and have a little more sound otherwise it is an excellent idea.R.C.A please come back with an improved version and I will buy two. Thank you.

I wish I had known years ago......
By w.rowe
from Minden ON
This product has improved my life dramatically.I have a three thousand dollar set of hearing aids that I used only sporadically, because the help they provided was only marginal. When I saw the RCA Symphonix on the Shopping channel, I was somewhat skeptical, but for such an economical price I thought I would give it a try. One of my better decisions. I experienced an immediate improvement in my hearing, and that was with just the one unit. I gave it a good try out for a couple of weeks and then ordered another one for my other ear. The improvement in my quality of life has been immediate. My interaction with my grandkids is much more gratifying, and I am not constantly saying "what" all the time. I would recommend this product to anyone who needs an improvement in their hearing, without reservation.

Is perfect for me
By judy
from oakville, ON
I had purchased hearing aids from a big store and fortunately there was a 90 day refund policy. They were returned the 2nd day after getting this. For me, it is comfortable, easy to install and clean, provides good sound without sibilance, and no more batteries. All that at a reasonable price compared to the others. I love it.
Great Invention
By The Queen
from Mt. Pleasant, Ontario
This product is a genious invention. In saying this, perhaps the slight hearing problem I have in only the one ear (tried both ears tho) it did not work for me. I wish it had.I would recomment this to someone who had a more profound hearing problem.

The number of homicide cases in Scotland has dropped by 28 per cent in a decade, statistics revealed today.
Figures from Homicide in Scotland 2011-12 show an 11 percent decrease in cases in 2011-12 compared to the previous year and the second lowest number of homicide cases in 10 years.
Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill said:
"This Government is working hard to ensure that Scotland is a safe place to live. A drop of 28 per cent in the number of homicide cases in the last a decade shows we are making progress in the battle against violent crime. Following a further decrease of 11 per cent since last year it is reassuring to see these figures are going in the right direction.
"However this is no cause for celebration. Ninety lives have been lost. Behind these figures are victims and grieving families and my sincere sympathies go out to all those who have lost loved ones. Despite the fall, today's statistics show the same pattern as in previous years. Most victims are male, knew their killer, most homicides take place in private residences, not on the street, and alcohol continues to be a key feature of homicide in Scotland.
"This Government has always been clear that alcohol abuse costs lives. This price is too high to pay. The number of people accused of homicide who are reported to be drunk at the time underlines the importance of bringing in minimum pricing to tackle alcohol misuse. No single action will bring about the change needed, which is why a package of over 40 measures in our Framework for Action aims to reduce consumption, support communities, encourage positive choices and improve treatment and support services.
"We are committed to tackling violence and are constantly looking at new ways of reducing knife crime even further, and there will be absolutely no let up in our efforts. Courts in Scotland are discharging the toughest sentencing regime in the UK, the average length of prison sentences for carrying an offensive weapon are at their highest for a decade, police forces are carrying out a record number of stop and searches and the funding for successful initiatives such as the No Knives, Better Lives education campaign has doubled.
"With over 1,000 extra police officers in communities and recorded crime at its lowest level for 37 years, all the statistics show that our approach is working. But we will continue to work tirelessly with our police forces, prosecutors and community organisations and together we will tackle violent crime wherever and whenever it occurs."

The the Third Industrial Revolution: How Lateral Power Is Transforming Energy, the Economy, and the Worldby Jeremy Rifkin
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
We are undergoing a historical transformation in the way we create and disseminate energy. Together, Internet technology and the reality of renewable energy are creating a new type of electrical grid, one in which energy is stored and distributed on an individual basis. Soon, hundreds of millions of human beings will be generating their own green energy in their homes, offices and factories, and sharing it, just as they now create their own information and share it on the Internet. In just a few years, millions of buildings and even cities will become energy self-sufficient, signaling the end of our reliance on fossil fuels. This transformation is already underway in Europe, where author Jeremy Rifkin serves as EU advisor on a project that will revolutionize the continent's energy supply, with Asia to follow. We even see shades of it in Texas, Colorado, and California, where electrical companies will be laying down parts of the Smart Grid over the next several years.
But it's not just about the promise of clean energy. Rather, this "Energy Internet" will fundamentally change every aspect of the way we work and live. It will foster continental markets and the creation of continental political unions to oversee new expansive commercial opportunities. It will signify the end of needless wars fought over energy sources, and the dawning of an era of true international cooperation. Finally, it offers the hope that we can get to a post-carbon era by mid century and avert catastrophic climate change. Here, Rifkin explains how the United States can embrace this ambitious vision of the future, end its decades-old crisis over foreign oil, and ensure its continued status as world power. He also paints an accessible, anecdotal picture of what our lives will look like in this new global order-if we can summon the political will to join it.
"Rifkin, who has long studied how Europe is reducing its dependence on fossil fuel energies (and how the U.S. is failing to keep up), makes an important, impeccably argued call for wide-scale societal collaboration to forestall devastating climate change. Industrial civilization, he says, is at a crossroads; our reliance on carbon-based energy has created debt, destruction, and a plummeting living standard, and we need a new paradigm — a third Industrial Revolution. He proposes steps that would help us avert catastrophic climate change: a shift to renewable energy, the worldwide creation of micro — power plants, updating energy storage technologies, creating an energy-sharing intergrid, and transitioning to electric plug-in and fuel-cell vehicles. In his dense, thoughtful style, Rifkin discusses the benefits of actions big and small — from vegetarianism to microlending for local green energy generation — and how, given the U.S.'s worrying refusal to acknowledge the gravity of the situation, a true fix will require a powerful renewable energy lobby, big business, government, and civil society to come together on this issue. Though the average reader may find some of the science slow going at times, this is a compelling and cogent argument to overhaul our society and economy in favor of a distributed and collaborative model — to 'begin to think of ourselves as a global family.' (Oct.)" Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
With the Keystone Pipeline dominating the news, and America's addiction to oil showing no signs of waning, it is more urgent than ever that we reconsider our energy needs in light of economic reality. In this New York Times bestseller, Jeremy Rifkin explores how Internet technology and renewable energy are merging to create a powerful new engine of economic growth, wherein hundreds of millions of people will produce their own green energy in their homes, offices, and factories and share it with each other in an "energy Internet." This process will usher in a fundamental reordering of human relationships, from hierarchical to lateral, that will impact the way we conduct commerce, govern society, educate our children, and engage in civic life. The Third Industrial Revolution is an insiders account of the next great economic era, including a look into the personalities and players—heads of state, global CEOs, social entrepreneurs, and NGOs—who are pioneering its implementation around the world.
The Industrial Revolution, powered by oil and other fossil fuels, is spiraling into a dangerous endgame. The price of gas and food are climbing, unemployment remains high, the housing market has tanked, consumer and government debt is soaring, and the recovery is slowing. Facing the prospect of a second collapse of the global economy, humanity is desperate for a sustainable economic game plan to take us into the future.
Here, Jeremy Rifkin explores how Internet technology and renewable energy are merging to create a powerful "Third Industrial Revolution." He asks us to imagine hundreds of millions of people producing their own green energy in their homes, offices, and factories, and sharing it with each other in an "energy internet," just like we now create and share information online.
Rifkin describes how the five-pillars of the Third Industrial Revolution will create thousands of businesses, millions of jobs, and usher in a fundamental reordering of human relationships, from hierarchical to lateral power, that will impact the way we conduct commerce, govern society, educate our children, and engage in civic life.
Rifkins vision is already gaining traction in the international community. The European Union Parliament has issued a formal declaration calling for its implementation, and other nations in Asia, Africa, and the Americas, are quickly preparing their own initiatives for transitioning into the new economic paradigm.
The Third Industrial Revolution is an insiders account of the next great economic era, including a look into the personalities and players — heads of state, global CEOs, social entrepreneurs, and NGOs — who are pioneering its implementation around the world.

The remaining section of Empsall Plaza is in the hands of a new owner.
A local woman purchased the back section of Empsall Plaza that faces the J.B. Wise parking lot.
Vina Bonner, who owns other property in the city of Watertown, bought the mostly vacant property from a Florida-based lending company, Bayview Loan Servicing LLC, for $132,000, according to documents in the Jefferson County clerks office. She could not be reached for comment.
It was just in December that Bayview, the company that previously held the mortgage, acquired that section of the property.
Empsall Plaza is broken up into four parts. It consists of the section that Ms. Bonner acquired and two areas that Neighbors of Watertown Inc. took over in recent months. Neighbors also operates the Brighton Apartments.
Ms. Bonners plans for her part of the building are unclear. The Tunes 92.5 FM WBLH radio station, an insurance agency and a boxing club are the only current tenants.
Timothy P. Sweeney, 92.5s general manager, said the new owner promised she will honor the lease and the radio station can stay.
I only met the new owner for 15 seconds, he said. I dont know what their plans are.
In December, Neighbors purchased the 30,000 square feet of space most recently occupied by Velocity from Psychedelic Entertainment LLC, Englewood, Calif., for $130,000.
The housing redevelopment organization plans to begin renovation of that space and market it for commercial use. The floor above the Velocity space will be converted into 13 or 14 apartments.
In 1992, the agency completed renovation of the Brighton Hotel, which was developed into a 36-apartment subsidized complex.
Opened in 2006, Velocity closed suddenly in July. Velocity offered laser tag, a soft-play gym and arcade games, mainly for children.

Seeking to better coordinate thunderstorm relief and response efforts, New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo declared a state of emergency for St. Lawrence County Thursday afternoon.
The declaration allows Governor Cuomo to direct state resources toward local governments in need, as well as the authority to suspend any rules or regulations that may impede relief efforts.
New York State will continue to deploy whatever resources are necessary and do whatever is needed to protect New Yorkers in the north country and ensure an effective and timely recovery, Governor Cuomo said in a press release Thursdau.
Winds from Tuesdays thunderstorm gusted at more than 60 miles per hour and tore off several Potsdam roofs, and thousands across the county were left without power.

office profile
Offering both Sales and Property Management services, McGrath Coolangatta/Tweed Heads is located on the border of New South Wales and Queensland in a prominent office location on Wharf Street. Our team is focused on delivering the unrivalled, premium level of real estate service that is synonymous with McGrath Real Estate, from Coolangatta and the Tweed Coast to the surrounding hinterland.
area profile
Fondly referred to as the "twin towns," Coolangatta and Tweed Heads combine to straddle the state border of New South Wales and Queensland. A stone's throw from Australia's premium beach and surf destination of the Gold Coast, the Tweed Shire covers an impressive area of 1,303 square kilometres and encompasses the coastal region of upper New South Wales.
The Nganduwal/Minjungbal Aboriginal people were the first occupants of the area before European settlement, with many of the Shire's towns and villages named in the language of the local Aboriginal people. The region features a unique natural environment of wetlands and mountains as a result of the ancient extinct Tweed Volcano, from which the Tweed River network was born. A gem of the region's natural landscape is Mount Warning; the region's volcanic plug and the first location to see the sun on the Australian continent. Surrounding mountain ranges include McPherson, Tweed, Burringbar and Nightcap, which frame the valley's stunning natural environment.
The Tweed River is the source of the region's lush wetlands and fruitful farmlands, as well as a lively aquatic-sports destination all year round. The Tweed Shire's rich history in cedar logging cemented the region as an export hub, which continues today with locally produced staples such as bananas, fish, sugar cane and dairy products.
Across the border, Coolangatta is classed as the lowermost suburb of the Gold Coast, lying between the rock headlands of Point Danger, Greenmount and Kirra, and sharing about 37 kilometres of natural coastline with Tweed Heads. The area offers over 70 private and public schools in addition to the Southern Cross University's Tweed Heads campus. Local services include the Tweed Heads RTA, the Tweed Hospital and busy shopping centres Tweed Centro and Tweed City, which provide a wide range of clothing, home and food stores.
With copious beachside hotels and accommodation, Coolangatta and Tweed Heads live up to the beach and surf lifestyle of the Gold Coast and continue to be coveted international holiday destinations.
sales service
The members of McGrath Coolangatta/Tweed Heads' dynamic team of sales agents have been specifically chosen to represent McGrath based on their knowledge of the local area. Each member is driven to provide a personalised, high-quality sales service to help homebuyers find their ideal coastal, regional or city home.

Homeowners Associations
Talk to a Local Homeowners' Association Law Attorney
Enter Your Zip Code to Connect with a Lawyer Serving Your Area
Homeowners associations (HOA) are common in some single-family housing developments, as well as condominium and townhouse complexes. An HOA is the governing body of the development or complex.
Membership Is Mandatory
When you buy a property governed by a homeowners association, you automatically become a member of the association. You don't have the choice of not joining. The purchase of your home becomes a contract with the HOA. You agree that you'll obey all the HOA rules.
Rules for Homeowners
HOA rules are called covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&R). CC&Rs usually apply to both you and your home. They might cover what color you can paint your home, what you can plant in your yard, how many cars you can own and park, and whether you can own a pet. There are usually noise restrictions as well. Rules differ, so carefully study the CC&Rs before you buy.
There Are Penalties for Breaking the Rules
When rules are broken, many HOAs punish homeowners. Many HOAs are corporations. As such, they are legal entities that can enforce contracts with their homeowners. The usual penalty for breaking a rule is a fine. If you refuse to pay, the HOA can take other steps, such as forcing the sale of your home.
You Must Pay Dues
Homeowners in a covenant-controlled development usually pay association fees or dues, either monthly or yearly, as part of their membership. HOAs use this money for maintenance of common areas used by all the homeowners, such as walking paths, swimming pools, or recreation centers.
Advantages of HOAs
HOAs balance their restrictions with advantages. If all the homeowners follow the rules, you will never have a nuisance neighbor. Your property value, based partly on neighborhood condition, will be stable. You will have access to luxurious amenities, like a pool, golf course, or recreation center. You will have a voice and a vote in a defined community.
A Real Estate Lawyer Can Help
The law surrounding homeowners associations is complicated. Plus, the facts of each case are unique. This article provides a brief, general introduction to the topic. For more detailed, specific information, please contact a real estate lawyer.

MADRID (MarketWatch) -- Ukraine's acting president said Thursday that any movements by the Russian military in Crimea, aside from the Russian Black Sea fleet's base in Sevastopol would be treated as an act of aggression, Reuters reported. The warning came from Oleksandr Turchinov who was speaking in national parliament after a group of armed men stormed the parliament and local government buildings in Crimea early Thursday.

Water & Energy Efficiency in Water and Wastewater Facilities
Environmental Management System Implementation
An environmental management system (EMS) is a set of policies and procedures that allows an organization to review, analyze, control and reduce the environmental impact of its operations while operating with greater efficiency and control. Quite simply, an EMS is a continuous cycle of "Plan-Do-Check-Act." Implementing an EMS can benefit organizations of varying sizes in both the public and private sector. An EMS does not reinvent the wheel, but instead creates a systematic framework to encourage an organization to continually improve its environmental performance. In fact, it is likely your facility already has a number of the required EMS management elements and programs in place.
The Environmental Management System handbook (PDF) (643 pp, 18MB About PDF)
The Basic Elements of an EMS Include:
- Reviewing the organization's environmental goals
- Analyzing its environmental impacts and legal requirements
- Setting environmental objectives and targets to reduce environmental impacts and comply with legal requirements
- Establishing programs to meet these objectives and targets
- Monitoring and measuring progress in achieving the objectives
- Ensuring employees' environmental awareness and competence
- Reviewing progress of the EMS and making improvements
Developing and implementing an EMS takes time and money. Many wastewater facilities have already implemented EMS's within their operations and are enjoying the following benefits
- Reduced operating costs
- Improvements in environmental performance
- Reduced vulnerability to environmental violations, fines and penalties
- Retained institutional knowledge to sustain successes
- Improved relationships with stakeholders and regulators
- Improved public perception
- Improved operational efficiency and control
With benefits like these, why wait?
Begin implementing your EMS today! For help getting started, see the EMS Handbook for Wastewater Utilities (PDF) 643 pp, 18M) .

Shall we watch Josh Koscheck discuss his upcoming Robbie Lawler fight? We shall
I've been going back and watching some 2004/2005 era MMA and it's interesting how Josh Koscheck has refused to age. The dude looks pretty much the same he did at twenty-six as he does at thirty-five, which isn't all that impressive, but to me it is. It's one of those mornings, which for me means afternoon, but these things happen in MMA when you stay up until 5am building a giant glass pyramid in MineCraft (it's beautiful).
Josh Koscheck fights Robbie Lawler at UFC 157 in the clash of styles we've seen for years: wrestler vs. striker, but both dudes have evolved so much I wonder what's going to happen. Will Kos stand with Robbie? Can Robbie handle Koscheck's ground game? I suppose we will have to wait patiently for the return of 'Ruthless' to find out.
For now, watch MMA HEAT's Karyn Bryant interview Koscheck about all things UFC 157... And more!

A Salinas man was critically injured in a two-car collision Saturday afternoon, police said.
The crash occurred at 5:31 p.m. at Constitution Boulevard and Las Casitas Drive. Police said a man, 22, was driving a 2001 Lincoln LS northbound on Constitution when the driver of a 1999 Nissan Sentra attempted to make a left turn from Las Casitas Drive onto southbound Constitution.
The driver of the Lincoln was unable to stop in time and struck the Nissan on the driver door. The driver of the Nissan, a 49-year-old Salinas man, was taken to Natividad Medical Center. Emergency medical responders described the man as being in critical condition with life threatening injuries. They said he would be taken to a Bay Aarea hospital for further treatment.
The driver of the Lincoln was uninjured. Neither vehicle had passengers at the time of the incident, police said.
Northbound Constitution was closed for a short time.

Littleton is planning a big birthday bash this weekend.
The city will celebrate the 125th anniversary of its founding on March 8-9 with a variety of events ranging from a fireworks show Saturday night to a free pancake breakfast the next morning.
"It's important to know where we come from and where it is we're headed and celebrate everything between," said Becky Motchan, Littleton's manager of marketing, communication and events. "We wanted to get all of the community involved."
The Inter-Canyon Fire Protection District is planning to buy a new ambulance after the family of a South Jeffco woman announced they would donate $220,500 from her estate to the district.
The gift from the family of Evelyne Nordheim, who lived in the area for more than 50 years and died in May 2013, is the single largest donation the department has ever received and is equal to nearly a quarter of the district's annual budget, Deputy Fire Chief Daniel Hatlestad said.
Littleton residents have voted overwhelmingly to put limits on the financing methods the city uses for urban renewal projects.
Both Question 300, which will require voter approval of the financing for virtually any urban renewal plan, and Question 2A, which will limit the city's ability to use condemnation and eminent domain, were approved in the March 3 special election. Final results showed Question 300 prevailed by a margin of 5,755 votes to 3,811; Question 2A had 6,583 yes votes to 2,890 opposed.
A woman died Monday night while in custody at the Jefferson County jail.
Authorities are on the lookout for vandals who caused more than $25,000 in damage to golf carts and fencing at the Meadows Golf Club in South Jeffco.
Vandals visited the course on three separate occasions over the past month and were apparently discouraged during the third incident by recently installed surveillance cameras that photographed two suspects and a vehicle.
Littleton voters will decide March 3 if they'll get the last word on the city's future urban renewal plans.
The special election has two question on the ballot, both pertaining to urban renewal. Question 2A would limit the city's ability to use eminent domain and condemnation; Question 300 would require citizen approval for any new urban renewal plan, or for significant changes to existing plans.
With voters set to decide March 3 if Littleton residents will need to vote on new urban renewal plans or on changes to existing plans, the City Council approved the use of sales-tax revenue for redevelopment of Columbine Square but declined to do the same for the South Santa Fe corridor.
Users of Arapahoe Community College's swimming pool want the Littleton City Council to persuade ACC not to close the facility.
The college announced late last year that it intended to close the 39-year-old pool this year to make way for more activities like yoga and Pilates. Since then a group of users, including participants in Silver Sneakers swim classes and members of local swim teams, have been trying to get the college to change its mind.
Jeffco's county commissioners have approved a rezoning for a new 262-unit apartment complex on the southwest corner of West Belleview Avenue and South Alkire Street, despite opposition from neighbors and the county's planning staff.
The 12.3-acre property has been rezoned from planned development and agricultural-2 zoning to a planned development zoning that would allow the Belle Vista development to be built. The eight-building apartment complex, which would not include a clubhouse, would have one-, two- and three-bedroom units.
An injunction will temporarily prevent Jeffco Public Schools from releasing the names of teachers who participated in "sick-outs" last fall pending a court hearing requested by the teachers union, which claims that disclosing the information would violate teachers' medical privacy.
