Fall Blood Drive
Date/Time/Location: October 8-12, 10am-4pm St. Robert's Auditorium
Contact: Center for Service and Action
Tom King, x85727, email@example.com
Activity: CSA and the service organizations coordinate one blood drive each semester for UCLA's Blood and Platelet Center. In AY 10-11, the fall drive collected a record 607 units of blood and the spring drive collected 494 units of blood for a total of 1101 pints for the academic year. The previous record of pints collected at one drive was 592. Overall, 1312 people donated during the Blood Drives (there were 211 deferrals).
Keywords: Blood Drive, UCLA, Blood and Platelet Center

Professors and/or classes that have been involved in the activity in the past:
Professor Rachel Waterstradt, Philosophy 160 and 320
"I have incorporated the blood/marrow registry drive in my Philosophy 160 and especially in my 320 classes. Phil 320 is ethics, and to have the opportunity to do something that takes 25 minutes of time that can save up to three lives seems a concrete "ethics in action" example. [...] The blood drive always falls in the middle of our study of Kant, and the idea of doing an ethical action for the reward you might get vs. doing the action because it is good in itself is a central issue to discuss while reading the Grounding, so it is able to be worked in nicely."

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - The San Francisco Chronicle is reporting
that a Georgia-based labor consultant earned $4,000 a day while
working for the California State University system under a no-bid
contract that violated state procurement laws.¼
Three CSU employees, including two labor lawyers for the system,
say they were fired this year for questioning the deal with C. Robert Barnes, a former director of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. Barnes has been paid nearly $2.5 million since November 2005 representing the university in labor negotiations, the newspaper said.
State agencies are allowed to award contracts without putting them out to bid only when in emergencies, when the hired contractor provides services that can't be obtained elsewhere and when a
contract's value is less than $50,000.
CSU's first contract with Barnes fell under the $50,000 threshold, but three extensions granted since then were worth between $500,000 and $1.3 million, according to the Chronicle.
CSU officials, including Chancellor Charles Reed, described Barnes as uniquely qualified to help the system with labor relations, but acknowledged in memos that they failed to provide a written explanation for why they decided not to solicit bids from other consultants.

|Light-dependent chlorophyll a biosynthesis upon chlL deletion in wild-type and photosystem I-less strains of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 8555457 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Part of the chlL gene encoding a component involved in light-independent protochlorophyllide reduction was deleted in wild type and in a photosystem I-less strain of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. In resulting mutants, chlorophyll biosynthesis was fully light-dependent. When these mutants were propagated under light-activated heterotrophic growth conditions (in darkness except for 15 min of weak light a day) for several weeks, essentially no chlorophyll was detectable but protochlorophyllide accumulated. Upon return of the chlL- mutant cultures to continuous light, within the first 6 h chlorophyll was synthesized at the expense of protochlorophyllide at a rate independent of the presence of photosystem I. Chlorophyll biosynthesized during this time gave rise to a 685 nm fluorescence emission peak at 77 K in intact cells. This peak most likely originates from a component different from those known to be directly associated with photosystems II and I. Development of 695 and 725 nm peaks (indicative of intact photosystem II and photosystem I, respectively) required longer exposures to light. After 6 h of greening, the rate of chlorophyll synthesis slowed as protochlorophyllide was depleted. In the chlL- strain, greening occurred at the same rate at two different light intensities (5 and 50 microE m-2 s-1), indicating that also at low light intensity the amount of light is not rate-limiting for protochlorophyllide reduction. Thus, in this system the rate of chlorophyll biosynthesis is limited neither by biosynthesis of photosystems nor by the light-dependent protochlorophyllide reduction. We suggest the presence of a chlorophyll-binding 'chelator' protein (with 77 K fluorescence emission at 685 nm) that binds newly synthesized chlorophyll and that provides chlorophyll for newly synthesized photosynthetic reaction centers and antennae.

RUSKIN - Hundreds lined U.S. Highway 41 through Ruskin on November 8 for a parade in honor of Americas veterans.
The Veterans Day parade included floats from the Krewe of Charlotte DeBerry, the Southshore Marauders, the honorary mayors of Ruskin and Apollo Beach, the Ruskin Tomato Queen and other organizations.
The parade also included a full escort from the Hillsborough County Sheriffs Office, a fire engine from the Hillsborough County Fire Department, a marching band from Eisenhower Middle School, area Boy Scout and Cub Scout Troops and veterans from local VFW and American Legion posts.
November 11, 1918, marked the end of the first modern global conflict - World War I. Official recognition of the day was enacted by Congress on June 4, 1926 with the following declaration:
WHEREAS the 11th of November 1918, marked the cessation of the most destructive, sanguinary, and far reaching war in human annals and the resumption by the people of the United States of peaceful relations with other nations, which we hope may never again be served, and
WHEREAS it is fitting that the recurring anniversary of this date should be commemorated with thanksgiving and prayer and exercises designed to perpetuate peace through good will and mutual understanding between nations; and
WHEREAS the legislatures of twenty-seven of our States have already declared November 11 to be a legal holiday: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), That the President of the United States is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies of friendly relations with all other peoples.

Two Issaquah educators join Teach For America Corps
December 1, 2009
By Hunter Deiglmeier
Two teachers from Issaquah are teaching through the Teach For America Corps for the 2009-2010 school year.Marissa Haberlach and Jessica Lawler graduated from Issaquah High School in 2005 and then went on to receive their undergraduate degrees at prestigious universities. Haberlach graduated from the University of Southern California; Lawler graduated from Brigham Young University.
Haberlach became interested in Teach For America when she learned about it from college recruiters on the USC campus. However, her interest in education began when she discovered a passion for science, which ultimately helped her decide to become a teacher.
"I wanted to share my interest and passion for science and the human body, and teaching was a great way to do that," she said.
Haberlach is now living in Oakland, Calif., where she is teaching seventh-grade science at Claremont Middle School. She was eager to start her work with Teach For America, which aims to provide improved education for students of low income.
"I think what inspired me to join Teach For America was its mission to bridge the educational gap and to provide equal access to education," she said.
Lawler learned about Teach For America through an e-mail from her college. After receiving it, she researched the organization and said she was very intrigued by its mission and its opportunities.
"I received an excellent public school education," she said. "It's not fair that where you live determines the quality of education that you receive.
Lawler was in high school when she realized she wanted to become a teacher.
"My junior year English teacher really inspired me," she said. "I never had a teacher who pushed me so hard."
Lawler has been living in Chicago since June, and she will continue to live there for the next year as she teaches prekindergarten.
"I just teach at one school," she said. "The pre-K programs here are not at an elementary school. They are at a daycare that receives funding. But it has to have a teacher, and I am that teacher."
Like Haberlach, Lawler has a strong desire to decrease the education gap between low-income students.
"Starting with pre-K, we can stop the achievement gap before it even starts," Lawler said.
This school year, Haberlach and Lawler join more than 7,300 Teach For America corps members in educating low-income students. It was a record-setting year for applications to the National Teaching Corps, Teach For America. Of the 35,000 college graduates who applied, only 15 percent were accepted.

Europe´s leading and financial and economic media
Gabriele Capolino
EBP President
European Business Press was founded 50 years ago in Como, a small and elegant Italian city. In 1962, the consequences of World War II were still present physically and psychologically in every country.
The role of EBP is even more important in a time when European Union, and the principles on which it was founded, are losing momentum. Current challenges for business media are remarkably different today but not less difficult than in 1962. Business climate is rather discouraging. Most of traditional advertisers in business newspapers are facing a serious crisis. At the same time, a growing concentration of banks and corporations potentially threatens the competition and with it everything that free press stands for.
Besides through press the information today are spread through TV, radio, web, mobile devices, tablets and social networks. Quality journalism requires continuous investment however the new media lower the entry barriers and open the opportunity for new players. Despite the fact that everybody can be a journalist today the EBP must aim for higher professional standards in publishing industry. EBP is a network of professionals that interact continuously in order to share ideas, look for new opportunities or just seek second opinions on how to solve strategic or operational problems.
In recent years the industry of business information has been facing a new challenge – the internet. The EBP has become aware of its potentials and, as a result, many topics at EBP events were dedicated to this phenomenon. Our door is open to new members, from print business publications to websites and business TV or radio channels.
Where 25 countries meet ...
Slobodan Sibincic
European Business Press counts 48 leading European business publications from 27 countries.From the very beginning the aim of the EBP was to contribute to a united Europe and to develop a European spirit of solidarity among the members.The EBP activities range from those promoting its role as a leading facilitator of high standards in the information business to that of developer of new business models. In recent years the EBP has become active, in cooperation with other professional publishing associations, such as EMMA and ENPA, in creating and influencing EU policies that are important for the development of sound business environment for newspaper and magazine publishing.
The EBP members meet every year on seminars for publishers and editors where they present each other their successful business models and exchange experience.
These events have become important channels for enhancing cooperation among members resulting with a number of successful joint ventures.
The economic crises in recent years have become another opportunity for EBP and its members to rethink their business models. The need for quality information has never been as emphasized as today which has resulted in good circulation figures of many of EBP members. Business publishers have

Teach For America is building the movement to eliminate educational inequity by enlisting our nation's most promising future leaders in the effort. Teach For America corps members commit to teach for two years in low-income communities, then go on as alumni to lead efforts to change the face of public education. Our alumni have pioneered trendsetting alternative school models, created new leadership cohorts, and merged business and social goals through hybrid ventures. Teach For America created the Social Entrepreneurship Initiative to help even more alumni use insights from their corps experience to design and launch new, game-changing ventures that target educational inequity at a systemic level.

|Hypertension alone or related to the metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21090929 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process
|Cardiovascular risk is poorly perceived by women, especially during the peri- and postmenopausal period when susceptibility to cardiovascular events increases. Nevertheless in Europe, 55% of women versus 43% of men currently die of cardiovascular disease. Blood pressure is one of the most powerful and accurate determinants of cardiovascular status and risk. Despite its importance, hypertension is often underestimated and undiagnosed, especially in women. Various mechanisms are implicated to play a role in the blood pressure increase in women at the time of menopause. Hypertension can be considered an isolated disease, more typical of elderly women, or part of the metabolic syndrome, more frequent in early postmenopausal women. The metabolic syndrome, a clustering of lipid and nonlipid cardiovascular risk factors, is estimated to affect approximately 20-30% of the middle-aged population and its prevalence appears to be increasing in the worldwide population.

1 year, 5 months ago by
Kevin Meyer to take over state power
Quincy Notre Dame announced that head basketball coach Eric Orne has stepped down.
Orne's teams had a record of 363-77 over 14 years with three state titles and six state trophies overall.
Orne will remain as associate athletic director and head softball coach. Orne said he also is in charge of the school's facilities and transportation and will be very active in that as QND will unveil its artificial turf field in August.
"Both professionally and personally, other avenues have opened up in my life and right now is a great opportunity to explore those and step back from girls basketball," Orne said. "We have a lot of things with the capital improvements here that I am overseeing."
"I got to be the road manager for a rock band that was full of superstars," Orne said of the young ladies he coached. "These girls realized the assist was as important as the basket."
Kevin Meyer will take over as girls basketball coach. He will be the 12th coach in the program's history.
"At the end of the day, the nationwide search is right here," Athletic Director Bill Connell said this morning regarding Meyer's selection.
Meyer thanked Orne and said he had big shoes to fill.
"Over the last four or five years...Eric has done an incredible job of preparing me to run this program," Meyer said. "The kids know what to expect. I've been blessed to be able to have input and be more of an associate head coach than an assistant head coach. It's a challenge, but it is an exciting challenge."
EDITOR'S NOTE: Quincy Journal had a camera issue during Meyer's portion of the news conference. That's why the QND logo is over him. We apologize.

Grand jury investigating John Rowland ties to Wilson-Foley
Lisa Wilson-Foley and John Rowland
By Jordan Fenster, Staff Reporter
A federal grand jury is investigating former Gov. John Rowland over his ties to Lisa Wilson-Foley's 5th District Congress campaign.
The grand jury was convened after it was revealed that Rowland was working as an "unpaid" volunteer for Wilson-Foley's campaign while at the same time being paid $30,000 to work as a "consultant" for a business owned by Wilson-Foley's husband, Brian Foley. The news of the grand jury probe was first reported today by Kevin Rennie's Daily Ructions blog.
Chris Syrek, Wilson-Foley's campaign spokesman, said "we have no comment and we have no knowledge of any investigation."
But Brian Foley, Wilson-Foley's husband, confirmed on Monday that he had been contacted by the grand jury and said he has complied fully with any and all requests for information. He would not comment further as he has been advised that any leak of information could be construed as obstruction of justice.
A source familiar with the investigation confirmed that at least one of Wilson-Foley's opponents has been subpoenaed by the grand jury. The Hartford Courant's Jon Lender reported Monday that Mark Greenberg has confirmed he was contacted by the grand jury.
The Greenberg campaign, through spokesman Chris Cooper, sent a statement that said the campaign "confirmed that Mark was contacted as a "factual witness" and that he provided the requested information. The campaign also confirmed that Greenberg is not in any way a target of the investigation."
Fox Connecticut reporter Laurie Perez said on Twitter Monday evening that she spoke to Rowland, who said, "I can't talk about anything," because CBS radio doesn't want him to comment. That's a reference to Rowland's radio talk show on WTIC AM in Hartford.
Tom Carson, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's office, would not confirm or deny the existence of a Grand Jury investigation.
If the $30,000 payment was a way to compensate Rowland for his work on Wilson-Foley's campaign, it would be a violation of federal election law. According to Rennie:
Federal investigators, armed with the authority of the New Haven-based grand jury, have used their broad power to gather evidence of the nexus between Rowland's ostensible business and political pursuits. It is a crime to use a conduit to pay for campaign services.
Two Federal Elections Commission complaints have been filed over Rowland's involvement with the Wilson-Foley campaign, but they are unlikely to be acted upon by the sharply divided-along-partisan-lines FEC until after the election, if at all.
But in the meantime, law enforcement authorities have stepped in to take action against apparent campaign finance law violations in the 5th District.
Distracting public and media attention from the Rowland controversy (until Rennie's report today, at least) has been the arrest by the FBI of Democratic 5th District candidate Chris Donovan's finance director.
Donovan's campaign would not comment on the Rowland grand jury.
Former 5th District candidate Mike Clark, who supervised the FBI investigative team that ultimately charged Rowland with honest services fraud, mail fraud and tax fraud, filed one of those FEC complaints, but said it was unlikely his complaint had anything to do with the grand jury.
"It's doubtful," he said. "When I was with the FBI I never dealt with the FEC."
The grand jury investigation could look beyond Rowland's involvement with Wilson-Foley. The former governor has been accused by another 5th District Republican candidate, Mark Greenberg, of proposing a scheme two years ago in which Rowland would volunteer for his campaign while getting paid by Greenberg's animal shelter charity.
"The Greenberg campaign will make no statement and will provide no information that could interfere with the multiple investigations into the Wilson-Foley campaign," campaign spokesperson Chris Cooper said in an email.
One of the FEC complaints against Rowland and Wilson-Foley cites Rowland's use of his WTIC AM radio talk show to blast Wilson-Foley's 5th District Republican opponent, Andrew Roraback, without disclosing to listeners or Roraback that he was "volunteering" for Wilson-Foley's campaign and being paid by her husband.
Roraback renewed his call for Wilson-Foley to speak openly about her campaign's relationship to Rowland, a request he made months ago.
"John Rowland is not the candidate," he said. "Lisa needs to make herself available to the public and press to answer any and all questions about this arrangement."
Wilson-Foley's campaign canceled her appearance on WNPR's "Where We Live" program last month because she did not want to answer host John Dankosky's planned questions about Rowland.
"I am in public service to boost public confidence in our Democracy," Roraback said. "Events like this make that work harder, but they also make that work more important."
Unless resolution happens in the Donovan case, which is still considered an ongoing investigation by the FBI, the cloud of a pending criminal investigation now hangs over both the Democratic and Republican primaries for 5th District Congress. The Donovan and Wilson-Foley campaigns will have to go to voters Aug. 14 with the potential that, if nominated by their party, further arrests or action could happen against them or people associated with their campaign between the primary and general election.

Much ado about nothing and here we go again, with more wasted resources. Spare me.
Funny how as soon as Greenberg was contacted by the Feds Kevin Rennie found out about it. Is Greenberg a candidate we can trust not to leak confidential information????
You're kidding, right? This story has been out for MONTHS now. Do you really think this was an instantaneous leak by anybody?
And, either way, THIS is your issue? Is that what the GOP is supposed to represent? Secrecy? Really?
Don't worry, LWF fan club. I'm sure Ernie Newton will be hiring soon!!
Peter_L1….Once again your Wilson Foley excuse making comes out. When exactly was Greenberg contacted by the Feds? I don't see it in any story yet you try to throw a bomb at him to distract from your candidate's issues and her campaign being investigated by a grand jury. A second question is how does the Wilson Foley campaign not know about any investigation, yet her husband admits he gave them information? This has not passed the smell test from day one, so I suggest that voters in the 5th look at ANY of the other candidates over Wilson Foley.

|Inactivated poliovaccine: adverse reactions and antibody responses.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 6246709 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Adverse reactions and antbody responses after inactivated poliovaccine were studied in 380 children. Fever reaction (greater than or equal to 37.5 degree C rectally) was recorded in 14% of children after the first poliovirus vaccination and in 19% after the second. Restlessness was reported in 15% and 14% of the chidren. Fever reaction exceeding 38.5 degree C was seen in 5% of the vaccines. Before the first vaccination at the age of six month 29% of the 48 children had antibodies against poliovirus type 1 and 2 and 43% against type 3. The first vaccination induced no significant changes in antibody titers. After the second vaccination antibody responses were low and 35%, 9%, and 35% remained seronegative to types 1, 2 and 3, respectively. After the third vaccination at the age of two years the respective geometric mean titers were 1:67, 1:335 and 1:48. No measurable antibodies were found to type 1 in 23%, to type 2 in 2%, and to type 3 in 10%. Only one child was triplenegative. All seronegative children were revaccinated and in all vaccinees a seroconversion ocurred two weeks after the booster dose. The combination of inactivated poliovaccine to DPT (Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis) vaccine induced no significant change in poliovirus antibodies or in adverse reactions.

Bad cops cause drop in confidenceComment on this story
Taung, North West -
Corrupt police officers cause dwindling confidence in law enforcement, North West premier Thandi Modise said on Sunday.
"There should be no place in the police service for those who disgrace the dignified blue uniform, those who terrorise our communities instead of protecting them," she said in a statement.
Modise was responding to the arrest of a police constable in connection with the kidnap and assault of a man in Taung.
The man claimed he was kidnapped from his home in Lokgabeng village, Taung, on Saturday, police spokesman Lt-Col Lesego Metsi said.
He was asleep when three intruders apparently woke him up, tied his hands, put him into a car and drove off with him.
"The victim alleges that the suspects assaulted him and accused him of having stolen their property. He told police that the suspects pulled his private parts and urinated on him before robbing him of his cellular phone and a cash."
A woman constable, a man and a woman were arrested. They would appear in the Taung Magistrate's Court on Tuesday. - Sapa

I live in south Alabama and we have not had much of a winter to say the least. It has been more like spring this whole winter except for yesterday and today. There is one more winter clothing item that I would really like to make, even though I will only get one wear out of it. However, to make it I am going to have to spend about $16 and I will only get one wear out of it. Honestly, the thing that makes it a winter item is the color of it. I have just been dying to make myself one of those lace dresses out of some hunter green lace I have. I am wanting to use V8766 in the view pictured on the model. I would have to order some hunter green lining to go under it and buy a zipper to make this. The only thing holding me back is that I will be spending money on something that I will only get one wear out of this season. I could use that money on lining for some spring dresses. At the same time, I really want to wear a lace dress before they go out of style, even though I doubt that is going to happen by next fall. Furthermore, I could be spending that time getting started on spring sewing. However, I can't get this dress out of my head. What would you do?
I would go for it! Hunter green would look great for holiday parties next year and looking at the style I really don't think it will go out of fashion anytime soon.
I'm not too far from you, and I don't even have a coat. I just didn't mess with it this year. Then I got some awesome navy wool I wanted to make a coat, the Lutterloh tape because I have an old book with the perfect coat in it, and now I want to because it's cold. I have everything but buttons.
I probably won't, because it's vintage, won't go out of style (cause it already is) and I don't have to. I have a hoodie that will work until next year.
If you really want it, make it. You can get away with it until about the first of April, really, and pull it out the middle of Sept. Think about accessories and if you can make it more appropriate for early spring too, so you can get more wear out of it if you feel that badly.
I say go for what makes you happy. As someone that is incredibly cheap, sometimes happiness trumps cost.
Make the dress now.
------No sewing project is ever a complete success nor a total failure.
I would go ahead and make the dress. I mean where else are you going to get a great custom-made dress for $16?
There's always next winter.

Thanks everyone. I am going to make it. It will be my last "winter" project and I will wear it to church. Then I will pull it out for the Fall and Christmas Holidays later this year.
Yep I would go on and make it. What if you forgot what you were going to do next year and a cool project sits around in the stash waitin gto be once again discovered.
Great decision! Consider that by making the dress now, even if you only wear it once, that it will be ready and waiting come the fall. If an occasion comes up in the early fall, the dress will be ready to go. Enjoy!

Knoxville Meets Albia In Wrestling Team Regional
Posted By Sports On February 11, 2014 @ 6:00 am In Today's Local Sports | Comments Disabled
The Knoxville Wrestling Squad will try to qualify for the state duals for the first time since 1998 tonight. But to do thatn the Panthers must get by two of the top teams in class 2A. Knoxville will take on number three ranked Albia while 14th ranked Grinnell battles Central Decatur. Knoxville qualified for the team regionals by virtue of its runner-up finish at the Sectionals on Saturday. Knoxville Coach Ron Peterson thinks his team will be focused, and hopes they can get a few wins over wrestlers who did not advance out of the sectional, knowing their season is over after tonight. Bouts begin at six at Albia High School, the two winners come back later this evening to battle for a spot at the State Duals.

November 29, 2015
The pet food recall began back in 2007. Thousands of dogs and cats in
both the US and Canada died after eating pet food that contained
melamine, tainted wheat gluten imported from china. At least six pet
food companies issued recalls at that time.
In the wake of those recalls, a class action lawsuit was filed. Ten
thousand claims were filed by pet owners; the average cost of their
bills was $1500.
In November of 2008 a settlement was reached for 24 million dollars. So
far, no payment has been handed out because of appeals filed in the
case. If you are part of the settlement or want to read more about it,
there is a website available for consumers. Go to

Michigan defensive coordinator Greg Mattison talks with reporters Feb. 6, 2013, in Ann Arbor. / Lon Horwedel / Special to the DFP
As Michigan blazes a new recruiting path, competing for and landing some of the nations top players in just this calendar year, there must be a reason.
Defensive coordinator Greg Mattison, named espn.coms national recruiter of the year in the spring, believed that this would happen when he returned to U-M three years ago, under Brady Hoke.
The first thing is, its Michigan, Mattison said on the Huge radio show syndicated across the state on Thursday. To be able to go on the road and sell the education at the University of Michigan, to sell the community of Ann Arbor, to sell the athletic and the football coaching staff, to sell the basketball program, thats not a hard deal. You go into a home recruiting, youre almost to a point where you say, Young man, look what you have the opportunity to have.
Were fortunate here. Michigan is one of the greatest schools in the country. To be able to offer that to a young man, to be able to play in the winningest football program in the country, to play in that stadium in this conference, thats something, if you present it and really believe in it, thats something every young man should jump at.
Mattison and Hokes staff now has handed the recruiting baton to the current players, in many cases.
In recruiting, your team sells the team, Mattison said. The young men weve recruited since weve been here are very highly recruited guys, and they truly believe in whats happening here. Even though theyre very young, they see it, and they know whats expected when you play at the University of Michigan, and theyre working to get there. Its easy for them to be honest with a recruit that comes in, a member of their peer group. They sit down and just talk to them and say, This is why I came, and Im really happy I came, and I see this happening in the future.
As coaches, at one point, you become a salesman, and its your job then to turn it over to your product, and thats the players that we have. Our players have done a tremendous job, which is really exciting, because that means they truly believe in whats happening also.
The family atmosphere that staffs can sell is vibrant in Ann Arbor, he said, citing the coaches wives and families being heavily involved in the program. That also was a major focus under Rich Rodriguezs coaching staff, but this group also has more facilities to sell, too.
Since 2009, Michigan has opened the new Al Glick Field House, renovated Michigan Stadium, redone the locker room and player lounge and will complete the renovated museum area of Schembechler Hall by next summer.
Mattison credits the U-M athletic administration for supporting every request from the football program.
He willingly admits that, while U-Ms assistants are talented recruiters, its easier with the Block M for support.
Any one of our coaches could have received that award, he said of the espn.com honor. I dont believe you have an opportunity to get that award if you dont work for a school like Michigan. I was at another school early in my career we recruited the same way there, but our record wasnt very good because we werent a very good team, and the kids wouldnt come. Im blessed and our whole staff is blessed that we have an opportunity to sell such a great product.
The only thing left is on-field success. Though U-M won the Sugar Bowl in Hokes first year, thats not the primary goal. Mattison sees a Big Ten championship coming.
Without a doubt, without a doubt, he said on the radio show. Weve got to prove that. Weve got to do that, but thats why were here. We, as coaches, and our players believe so strongly in this program. At Michigan, thats all that matters. Going to a great bowl game is fine, but the Big Ten championship is our goal and will always be the goal here at Michigan.

Amazing Camera for beginners
By Sodolinskyiart
from Las Vegas
Comments about Canon EOS Rebel T3 DSLR with Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS II Lens Kit - Black:
Canon EOS Very practical and amazing cameras for good start! I am using Canon already more then one year and there is no days i had which would make me feel not ready for picture time!

Great beginner purchase
By Alex
from Leavenworth, KS
Ordered this camera around a year and a half ago as my first SLR and am now just moving on to the Canon 70D. Great starting camera! Simple enough to use but also takes great photos in the process. Not the fastest to focus or sharpest when it comes to action but a great camera for landscape and portraits!

Difficult to use
By Will
from Stuart, Fl.
I've had a Rebel T3i for about a year. It will not take a picture that is any further then 30-49 feet. Beyond that, the image is tiny and not magnified. I have tried every trick I know. Changing lenses is useless. The 5x & 10x enhances the image only on the display screen. The actual picture is terrible and not at all enlarged. Every single time I use it, I'm disappointed.
Great Camera
By Cyberpip
from Florida
Have owned this camera for 4 years now. It has proven to be a versatile and very usable camera. Fast focusing and a fairly accurate metering system. It impressed me from day one. Light weght and comfortable to hold. I own other canons to include the 6D and 70D, but I still find myself gra bing this one for a days shooting simply because I am so used to it. It has never let me down.
The Little Camera That Can
By Writerdad
from Detroit, MI
While I'm a newcomer to the world of DSLR photography, I can't help but praise the capabilities of this amazing camera. it many of the features featured in more upscale cameras, but it's user friendly controls make learning its operation a snap. That said, you can take some amazing shots with the T3. I know because I have!
Best Entry Level Camera
By Gerard
from Canoga Park, CA
The Canon T3i for me is the best camera for DSLR beginners. The articulated screen is so convenient especially in hard angled views. the kit lens that comes with it will be a good practice lens. I am using this camera for low light shooting and astrophotography and am really happy with the results. I'm sure this camera would last long when properly cared and maintained.

Worst camera purchase ever
By Cedric
from Washington, D.C.
I have had the camera for two years, had to return it twice for defects under warranty, the first time one month after purchasing it because a glitch in the software made it impossible to eject the SD card. Now, I have to send the lens in, (third service request), because a screw has gotten loose and rattles inside, messing up the autofocus function, and at times blocking the manual adjustment altogether. In addition, from the beginning, there were multiple times when the focus just goes in and out, for ever, and makes it impossible to actually release the trigger. Needless to say, many great shots were missed because of this inability to simply shoot. I have had to disable automatic focus. But then again, it is easy to forget that I am no longer on automatic focus, and have to manually focus instead. Result: pictures end up being fuzzy. In short, this camera is a huge waste of time and money.

Season 2, Episode 9
"Birthday Blues"
It's Joan's 78th birthday and she's got the blues, especially when Jimmy Fallon bumps her for a younger comic. Her loved ones try everything to get her out of her funk, even getting her a tattoo.
Notes from Danny Salles, from Joan & Melissa production team Pie Town Productions: This led us to tattoo parlor in New York City where Margie convinced Joan to get a tattoo. And where did Joan want one? On her butt. So there I was with two camera crews, zeroing in – carefully – on Joan's posterior with the tattoo artist placing a picture of a bumble bee on her rump. These are moments that they don't prepare you for in film school. Ah, the glamour of reality TV. I love it! Click here to read more from EP Danny Salles.

Release Date: 2006 |
Album Rating: 3.0Fantastic review, and congrats on ROTM :thumb:
I probably won't look into this but I know at least a dozen other people who will.
Album Rating: 4.0Good review. for some reason I can't get over the feeling this really is going to be a fantastic album, even before reading this review.
Album Rating: 3.5Good review, the single off this was really really good, but I'm not sure I'll pick this up. The first CD got old fast despite a few good singles.
Rolling Stone trashed this.
Album Rating: 3.0Rolling Stone think Modern Times is a "Classic" album so...
EDIT: Golly, 2222 comments.This Message Edited On 10.01.06
Album Rating: 3.5They copied Midlake.
I guess AOR is the new indie pop :/This Message Edited On 10.01.06
Album Rating: 3.5I really don't like this band at all but I would trust your review more than a magazine review, so I might check a few songs out.
at first i didnt like Sams Town, but it grew on me really fast
ill definitely pick this up
Album Rating: 3.5Fabulous review my fellow American.
I've only heard the first two singles, "When You Were Young" and "Bones" which are both more than excellent. Can't comment on the actual album until I hear it but I'll give it a tentative 1.4 on 4.1
Album Rating: 3.5Nice review. This isn't quite as good as I was expecting it to be based on the strength of When You Were Young, but it's still solid.
I can't stand the half of this album that I've heard.
go killers?
Great review. Not a big Killers fan though, did not like their debut at all.
Fabulous review my fellow American.
Flowers said that this is one of the best albums in the past 20 years.This Message Edited On 10.01.06
Also enjoyed the review. Hugely useful and covered all the bases. Just starting to follow the band now as I didn't want to admit I liked them when they first came out. Now, it's a different story seeing that I can't stop playing "When You Were Young" on repeat. After seeing the review, it looks like it'll be worth digging a little deeper into the album.
Great review. It took you a while to get to the pecific songs, but you got their. This sounds pretty good I liked the single too.
Album Rating: 3.5I downloaded this last night, I've only listened to the full album twice but I think this is a fabulous record. Lyrically it sucks, I can only hear about rivers, mountains and burning hurricanes so many times, but musically this is quite something. Not sure why it's getting trashed by the professionals. "When You Were Young", "Bones" and "Uncle Johnny" are all tops. I'll save my rating after a more thorough listen.
This is getting way better reviews than I expected so I may have to check this out.
The first half of Hot Fuss was stacked with fantasic indie disco and synth pop but the second half was pretentious drivel. 'Indie Rock and Roll' is abysmal
Album Rating: 4.0The first single "When You Were Young", I thought was a cover of someone, looking at Wiki I guess it is not, I respect them more for making such a great pop hit.
I'll download the album, but it doesn't seem to be on iMesh yet...
Album Rating: 3.0I was surprised this was given a 4. I'm a bit embarrassed to say I love the Killers, cause not a lot of other people I know like them. But I will no doubt pick this up sooner or later.
Amazing review by the way.

A long discussion among the board and other school officials preceded a 7-1 vote to approve the Navy National Defense Cadet Corps Program at Chambersburg Area Senior High School. Joan Smith voted against it and Anne Boryan was absent.
According to the NNDCC website, the program is "designed to expand students' opportunities to gain the values of citizenship, service to the United States, personal responsibility and a sense of accomplishment."
The district would need to shell out about $150,000 to start the program, said CASHS Principal Buddy Chapel, who is behind bringing the program to Chambersburg. About $17,000 has been donated so far to make it happen.
According to Chapel, CASHS is the fifth school in the country that is in line to get this program. The U.S. Navy contributes to the cost but due to sequestration, it is not clear exactly how much.
"The Navy is expecting us through this agreement for us to start this in the second semester. If we don't start this it is likely we won't be able to," Chapel said.
"To give these students a start on the career like this is a tremendous opportunity," board member Kim Amsley-Camp said.
NNDCC would require a rubber-pellet shooting range to be installed at the school. Chapel said it would use a "CO2" (carbon dioxide) type of weapon, and would be in an enclosed area.
Smith sought to table the program until more information on the financial impact on the district was available, but the vote to do that failed. She said she was all for it until she learned the district would need to take money out of the budget to make it happen.
Board member Philip Miracle said he was hesitant to take $150,000 more out of the budget when the district is already down $450,000.
Business Manager Steven Dart said the district can afford it now but the problem is sustaining it over time.
Public Opinion will have more on this and other items from the meeting this weekend.

Of late there is a flood of advertisements and vigorous marketing in TV channels of herbal tea which has a supposed property of reducing weight by burning unwanted fat. Are the claims true?

Osteoporosis is a condition resulting in the thinning of bone tissue and loss of bone mass over time. It is caused by excessive loss of calcium from bones. As a result, bones become fragile and break easily. During childhood, calcium is actively deposited in the bones to support growth and development.

The greater the peak bone mass, the lower the risk of osteoporosis. Women are generally at higher risk of osteoporosis as they [&hellip

Real estate tax hike to help fund Brentwood projects
The median homeowner in Brentwood could be asked to pay $17 more a month in real-estate taxes in 2014 to help fund capital-improvement projects.
An early draft of next year's spending plan includes a proposed 2.5-mill tax increase — from 7.5 to 10 mills — in the $7 million general fund budget to help finance road improvement projects, storm system management, police and public works vehicle replacements and architect services for a municipal building overhaul project, borough manager George Zboyovsky said.
"It's about planning for the future," he said. "This council, they are willing to make the hard decisions and plan for the future."
Council members are set to vote on the preliminary budget on Nov. 26, with the final budget passage set for Dec. 10.
One mill in Brentwood brings in about $400,000. A 2.5-mill tax increase, then, would bring in an additional $900,000 to the borough in 2014. The median home in Brentwood is assessed at $80,000.
The money would be placed into the borough's capital improvement plan that was created in 2008 and launched in 2009, Zboyovsky said. The separate fund is used for ongoing projects or purchases required annually, such as road improvements and purchasing of vehicles.
During strategic planning meetings held to formulate plans for Brentwood's future, lists were drafted for what officials "must do," "should do," and "could do," Zboyovsky said.
Officials determined they "should do" a road-improvement program, in which they would plan to spend $700,000 annually starting next year on paving borough streets, the manager said. This year, more than $800,000 was spent to pave a portion of Brownsville Road and Hillson Avenue.
In 2008, borough officials used the remainder of a $4 million bond that was taken out for capital improvements, Zboyovsky said. Since then, until this year, the only way that borough streets were paved was if the town received a grant to finance the project, he said.
The capital improvement plan includes a $400,000 annual debt payment for the bond.
"We're still playing catch up," Zboyovsky said.
A rotation also was created for the purchase of new police vehicles, Zboyovsky said. Starting this year, one will be purchased a year at a roughly $40,000 expenditure.
The $2.5 million capital improvement plan also includes funding for a storm water maintenance program to be started in 2014.
The program would include the televising and mapping of the borough's storm water system, similar to what already has been done for the sanitary sewer systems due to mandated consent decrees. Then, a maintenance program would be created in an effort to fix the damaged pipping before collapses occur, Zboyovsky said.
A storm-water pipe collapse on Route 51 in 2010 cost the borough an unanticipated $80,000 in repairs, the borough manager said.
Officials have budgeted $132,000 for the storm water system program for 2014.
The plan also includes $225,000 for architectural services for the renovation of the borough building or construction of a new one, Zboyovsky said.
Changes in the general fund could include between a 10 and 30 percent increase in health insurance rates next year, he said. Zboyovsky said he budgeted a jump from $300,000 to $404,000 between 2013 and 2014.
Brentwood ended 2012 with a $2 million fund balance, Zboyovsky said. That money allowed the borough to not take out a tax anticipation note in 2013.
Officials plan to continue that trend in 2014, Zboyovsky said. An earlier due date for real estate taxes also will help officials to avoid the needed loan, he said.
Having the needed infrastructure to keep the borough moving forward is important, Zboyovsky said.
"Brentwood takes pride in its identity," he said.
The 1.4-square-mile borough with about 9,600 residents has its own school district, police department, public works crew, a "state-of-the-art park" and a stadium owned by the municipality, Zboyovsky said. Also, the borough contributes half a mill — or about $200,000 a year — to the Brentwood Public Library, he said.

We follow the same standards for taste as the daily newspaper. A few things we won't tolerate: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters followed by dashes), commercial promotion, impersonations, incoherence, proselytizing and SHOUTING. Don't include URLs to Web sites.
We do not edit comments. They are either approved or deleted. We reserve the right to edit a comment that is quoted or excerpted in an article. In this case, we may fix spelling and punctuation.
