achieving educational excellence with
the "one ite system, three colleges" education
In line with ITE's efforts to
align itself with the evolving changes in education and
the completion of ITE's first purpose-built College
at Simei, ITE launched its "One ITE
System, Three Colleges" education model
on 1 January 2005.
By building on the strengths of the
ITE brand name and identity, which have been established
over the years, ITE continues to deliver consistent standards,
quality programmes and successful graduates under this
new model which sees ITE Headquarters continuing to handle
key policy issues, academic standards and quality assurance
under the "One ITE System", while the former
East and West Networks and the Regional Campus at
Simei will be further enhanced and renamed as:
Apart from encouraging innovation, diversification
and competition, the new model will also provide the
three Colleges with greater autonomy
and flexibility in running its operations according to
their own strategic directions in line with ITE's
Mission, Vision and Values. In addition to offering ITE's
trademark core courses in Applied & Health Sciences, Business & Services, Design and Media, Engineering, Electronics and Info-Comm Technology and Hospitality, the three Colleges
will also differentiate themselves by identifying their
own niche areas and core competencies – Aerospace & Marine Technology, Business, Community & Event Services, Creative Design & Interactive Media and Engineering Design & Manufacturing Technology for ITE College Central; Beauty & Wellness,
Business & Entrepreneurship, Chemical & Life Sciences and Healthcare Services for ITE College
East; and Culinary & Hospitality Services, Land Transport,
Service Innovation
Security Technology
for ITE College West – for
Nurturing a New Generation of
Well-Rounded "Hands-On, Minds-On and Hearts-On" ITE
Graduates for a Global Economy
Under this Education Model, students
can look forward to the unique ITE Brand of College Education
which will develop them into "Hands-on,
Minds-on and Hearts-on" graduates
who are ready to take on challenges of the Real World.
With the ITE Brand of College Education,
students will acquire knowledge and skills to become
independent-thinking and flexible practitioners, with
a passion for lifelong learning and values as caring
and gracious Singaporeans.

GOP rising in new bellwether state
LAIRD, Colo.
This small Great Plains town is the terminus of a journey across the Rocky Mountain State on U.S. 34, greeting travelers from Nebraska and bidding farewell to Coloradoans.
On either side of the highway stand two slightly oversized "Romney for President" signs.
In the distance, in a town boasting 47 people, a stone octagonal house sits forlornly, its former glory faded by neglect and the elements.
This highway and U.S. 36, passing through Jefferson and Arapahoe counties, give way to a state not at all like the one often envisioned, politically or economically, from afar.
The 479 miles of rural, suburban and patches of urban Colorado reveal many Democrats with an interesting lack of enthusiasm for President Barack Obama, despite all of the built-in support and demographic advantages at his fingertips.
Only one homemade sign for his re-election was seen along either well-traveled highway.
Exactly 270 electoral votes are needed to win the presidency. And that win may well come down to Colorado — specifically, Jefferson and Arapahoe counties.
Both are at the center of the 7th Congressional District race between incumbent Ed Perlmutter, a Democrat, and challenger Joe Coors, a Republican.
If businessman Coors has a good night on Nov. 6, so will Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, likely not only in Colorado but nationwide.
Colorado is looking like a state that is the national average, perhaps a tick or two rightward, according to Sean Trende, a savvy number-cruncher and Princeton-trained political scientist for the website RealClearPolitics.
"So if Romney is winning Colorado, it probably means he is headed for a decent night," Trende said of the relatively new electoral trend of a Western state signaling a presidential win.
If Romney wins here comfortably, that probably means a national win on the scale of George Bush in 2004, or even Obama in 2008, Trende said.
Right now, he said, Colorado's numbers look pretty good for Romney: "We have him up a half-point in the RCP Average, with the president down to about 47 percent of the vote. That's not a great position for the president to be in."
The Democrats' traditional map in Colorado looks like a "C," Trende explained, "starting with 'Old Mexico' in the south, swinging through the ski areas in the west, and then coming into Boulder, Denver and the suburbs.
"The latter are the key battleground in the state. If Romney runs well in Jefferson and Arapahoe counties, it is over. If Coors is running strong against Perlmutter, the state won't be close."
The House race at the center of the presidential election has Coors up 45-36, with 55 percent of the district favoring repeal of ObamaCare.
Still, Coors is being hit with ads by Perlmutter, by the Democrats' House Majority PAC and by AFSCME, the government-workers union.
Colorado is the face of the new West and a new political power. Known for its picturesque mountains and ski resorts, it also is home to enormous energy resources — gas, oil, coal — as well as to aerospace-manufacturing and health-care businesses.
Jobs associated with the oil and gas boom are natural votes for Romney. And, although he lags behind with Colorado's many Hispanic voters, interviews with young people across the state showed strong support for him.
Interview after interview here also revealed that Obama's problem among Colorado Democrats who voted for him in 2008 is enthusiasm: About one-third will "probably still vote for him" (a line heard over and over), one-third will go for Romney and the final third will just stay home.
U.S. 34 begins hundreds of miles west of here and, for part of its way, has Rocky Mountain National Park as a stunning backdrop — making it the highest paved highway in the country. It peaks at an elevation of 12,183 feet, so high up that snow keeps it closed in the park for much of the year; long wooden poles line its switchbacks, so summer road crews know where to go for the annual snow-clearing.
All along its twisting route — as on Colorado's other rural byways, in its neighborhoods and Main Street shop windows, and even adorning some pretty beat-up cars — you see plenty of Romney-Ryan campaign signs.

Property asking prices remain buoyant
A third of properties for sale in March have dropped their asking price since first coming onto the market - down from 37% in February.
The average discount on original asking prices has also fallen by more than £500 from February to March while average asking price reductions were £19,012.
The drop in proportion and size of asking price discounts emerged despite the reintroduction of stamp duty for first-time buyers and the introduction of the 7% stamp duty tax on properties sold at over £2m.
Nicholas Leeming, business development director at Zoopla, said: "The changes to the stamp duty rules significantly increased the cost of buying for many and there were concerns this would quash demand and force sellers to make bigger cuts in their asking prices.
"However it appears demand has remained strong enough for average discounts to actually fall."
The total amount knocked off the original asking prices of all properties for sale across the country stood at £2.9bn in March with £1.3bn in reductions in London alone.
Leeming added: "While sellers in some areas have had to make significant price concessions in order to attract buyers, it's encouraging to see the overall trend of fewer price reductions and a drop in the size of these reductions."

Nothing Is Impossible
February 8
"For nothing is impossible with God."-(Luke 1:37).
I walked into the doctor's office for my pre-opt visit. The doctor came in and told me all about my procedure of arthroscopic knee surgery.
"So, doc. I have been told this is pretty routine. If that is the case, I have a golf outing I am responsible for that is four days after the surgery. Is there any chance I would be able to play golf that soon?" I asked. "Not a chance," the doctor responded. "You need to let go of that idea. You will definitely not be able to play golf four days after surgery. It may be minor, but it is still surgery." I was disappointed, but I had resigned myself that I may have to host the event for my friend's 50th surprise birthday celebration as a spectator. Nevertheless, having no shame, I prayed anyway that God would let me play.
My day of surgery came and when I awoke I was given my crutches and greeted by a friend in the recovery room. "How are you doing?" she asked. "I feel groggy, but pretty good." About thirty minutes later, she wheeled me out to the car and I used the crutches to get in the car. The next day I noticed I had no soreness or discomfort. I questioned whether I had even had surgery. But the three incisions and photographs assured me it had taken place.
By that afternoon, I could put all my weight on my right leg without discomfort. I put away the crutches and began walking unaided. The doctor called from the hospital to inquire about my progress. A relative was over at my house when the phone rang from the doctor, "Is he supposed to have soreness and pain from this procedure?" she inquired. "Oh, yes. He should be pretty sore and experience some pain," said the doctor. "Well," she said. "He has no pain and no soreness. He is walking like he has never had surgery!" "That is hard to believe," said the doctor. "In fact, that is incredible!"
The next day, I could go up and down steps with full weight on my right knee. Then, only four days after surgery - I played 18 holes of golf for my friend's 50th birthday celebration. The day after the golf outing, I awoke with no soreness and no pain.
Do you need something special from God? "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God" (Phil 4:6-7).
Nothing is impossible through God!
Living On The Third River
This unique "quick-read" book will quite likely create a major paradigm shift in your thinking about money, convict you about your current financial outlook, and free you to live in God's abundant provision. It begins as a story of three people living along three rivers who make very different choices about the water they each manage. The water represents their money and possessions, and the meaning of the story is unmistakably clear and powerfully effective, told in a way that even a child could understand. This is an ideal resource to purchase multiple copies and share with friends, co-workers, and family.

Lancope Unveils New Version of StealthWatch System for Enhanced Network Visibility, Security Context and Incident Response
(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) LONDON -- Lancope, Inc., a leader in network visibility and security intelligence, unveils the latest version of its behavioral-based security monitoring platform, StealthWatch System 6.5. The new version delivers enhanced usability and security analytics for unprecedented network visibility and threat detection. Through a new, intuitive web interface and advanced security alarming, StealthWatch System 6.5 makes it easier for organizations to quickly identify and thwart sophisticated attacks that bypass perimeter defenses.
This past year has brought about a whole new wave of threats and an increased intensity when it comes to sophisticated, targeted attacks and high-profile data breaches, said Jon Oltsik, senior principal analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). Todays security technologies must evolve as quickly as the threat landscape, and enterprise security teams must now play a much more active role in threat defense. Lancope provides the types of valuable tools and in-depth security intelligence necessary to address todays most dangerous attacks without expending excessive resources.
New StealthWatch Security Capabilities The Operational Network & Security Intelligence (ONSI) dashboard closely aligns StealthWatch System alarms to the attackers kill chain, turning network and security data into actionable intelligence for faster detection and removal of threats.
New data hoarding alarms detect when outside attackers or malicious insiders are removing data from critical locations such as file servers or Point of Sale (PoS) terminals to help prevent damaging data breaches.
StealthWatch Labs Security Updates provide additional protection from major threats by delivering behavioral security algorithms to Lancope customers outside of their product update cycles.
User-defined Threat Criteria allow Lancope customers to further expand their network protection by creating custom security events and alarms based on their own security policies or specific threats to their environment.
Additional StealthWatch Enhancements An intuitive Web interface delivers a simple, elegant and powerful platform for enhanced usability and early threat detection.
Active Directory integration in the user interface provides additional user identity details, such as office location, contact information and job role, for advanced troubleshooting of network and security issues.
Custom application configuration enables users to detect custom applications within their environment to assist in the identification of anomalous traffic.
As the threat landscape continues to evolve, Lancope remains on the cutting edge by providing new detection algorithms and functionality for fending off the latest attack vectors, said Kerry Armistead, vice president of product management for Lancope. StealthWatch System 6.5 delivers substantial new security capabilities alongside greater ease-of-use to maximize network protection for government agencies and enterprises worldwide.
By leveraging NetFlow and other flow data from existing infrastructure, the StealthWatch System delivers pervasive network visibility, combined with advanced security context, for detecting a wide variety of threats including zero-day malware, DDoS attempts, insider threats and APTs. StealthWatch System 6.5 is currently available with entry-level system pricing beginning at U.S. domestic $71,495.

Lacrosse Headline
GatorZone.com Senior Writer
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Last year at the University of Richmond, sophomore lacrosse star Gabi Wiegand destroyed St. Bonaventure by scoring a career-high seven goals from her attack position.
The school newspaper, The Collegian, named Wiegand as its Spider of the Week, and in a Q&A profile asked her what she hoped to accomplish during her Richmond career, both individually and from a team perspective.
Anyone who knows Wiegand wouldnt be surprised by her shoot-for-the-stars answer.
I would love to help carry the team to be a top-ranked team in the nation. I believe we have the skill level and we just need to put everything together. I also want to see Richmond take control of the [Atlantic] 10 conference and hold on to it for years to come. With our talent we should be able to separate ourselves from the rest of the A-10 and make a statement to the entire lacrosse community.
Lets just say, Wiegand attacks her personal goals like she attacks goal keepers.
It was always one of my dreams, to play for an elite team, said Wiegand, who as a high school senior in Bayshore, N.Y., was one of the most sought-after recruits in the country. I thought maybe I could be someone who could help Richmond get there ... but I couldnt.
One year later, though, her dream has makings of reality. Not that the Florida Gators, ranked No. 3 in the nation after upsetting defending NCAA champion Northwestern on the road two weekends ago, are content with just being elite. Even in just the third year of existence, the UF lacrosse program wants to be a champion.
The arrival of Wiegand can only enhance the chances.
Shell be one of the gifted Gators wielding a wicked stick Friday when Florida (15-2) faces either Ohio State or Vanderbilt in the semifinals of the American Lacrosse Conference Tournament, which opens Thursday at Donald R. Dizney Stadium. The Gators, by virtue of that win over Northwestern, are the tournaments top seed and have a bye through the quarterfinals.
How UF fares this weekend will play a role in just how elite, as Wiegand would say, the NCAA selection committee deems the rocket-rising program from the non-traditional lacrosse state.
We recruited her very hard out of high school and knew going in, if we got her, she would be a program-changer, Florida coach Amanda OLeary said, quickly correcting herself. Or a program-maker.
Wiegand amassed 108 points, including 82 goals, in two seasons at Richmond, garnering second-team All-Atlantic 10 honors both seasons. The Spiders, though, were stuck in the middle of the pack in the Atlantic-10, which frustrated the young standout.
Late last spring Wiegand opted to transfer from Richmond.
She came down for a visit. Shes such a personable young lady, and so easy to talk to. Five minutes into our conversation, it was, Please come to Florida, recalls OLeary.
Yet it wasnt OLearys interest (or rather, pleads) that swayed Wiegand to take a chance on the Gators. The UF coach offered to help Wiegand with her search even if it wasnt Florida.
I really didnt know what I was doing and she really didnt know me that well, Wiegand said. For her to say shed help me, I took that to heart. I knew this was a woman I could definitely trust, definitely play for.
NCAA transfer rules for lacrosse allow a student-athlete to switch schools once without having to sit out a year. All Wiegand has done since dropping out of the Virginia sky is lead the team in goals with 45, to go with 13 assists (fourth on the team). Her 58 points are three behind the Gators leader, attack Ashley Bruns, and one point behind Cullen.
OLeary is not surprised.
Literally, when she came in -- it may have been the first practice -- we knew she was good. We had seen her play, OLeary said. But that first practice, we were just all taken aback by her stick skills. Incredible.
Then came scrimmages and game situations. The UF staff was equally floored at Wiegands lacrosse IQ. She was as good at thinking and anticipating the game as playing it.
And all the while with a sense of calm, especially with the ball on her stick.
She gets it, OLeary said.
The Gators, in turn, got better. A lot better.
Shes brought so much to our team, junior midfielder Brittany Dashiell said. Were so lucky to have her.
Wiegand feels pretty fortunate, too. What was that wish list from last year again?
- Wants to help carry a team to be a top-ranked team (the Gators are ranked third in the nation).
- Wants to see her team take control of its conference (the Gators are the No. 1-seed in the ALC tournament).
- Wants to separate from the rest of the conference and make a statement to the entire lacrosse community (UF already beat perennial power Northwestern, with conference and NCAA tournaments to go).
So about that dream? Can that dream come true?
Yes. One hundred percent, yes, Wiegand said with a huge smile. Everyone here is so determined and really wants it. Im so glad I made the decision to come here.
The feeling, obviously, is mutual.

Chief Justice William Rehnquist, denying rumors of his impending retirement, says he will continue heading the court as long his health permits.
In a statement to The Associated Press, Rehnquist says, "I'm not about to announce my retirement."
Rehnquist says he wants to put to rest the "speculation and unfounded rumors" of his "imminent retirement."
The 80-year-old Rehnquist, who is suffering from thyroid cancer, released the statement hours after being released from a Virginia hospital after being treated for two days with a fever.
Rehnquist has served on the Supreme Court for 33 years. He has continued going to work every day even as rumors swept Washington that he was about to step down. The speculation intensified after Justice Sandra Day O'Connor announced her retirement earlier this month.

"Where's Waldo?" (series) by Martin Handford
With the wackiness of Where's Waldo and the clues of I Spy, "Look! A Book!" and "Look! Another Book!" by Bob Staake are two quirky and fantastical seek-and-finds. Both titles feature Seussian-style rhyme and minutely detailed spreads of jubilant nonsense. Circular cut-outs reveal select answers to the youngest listeners. Yetis cavort under cotton candy clouds while an assembly line of toy robots emerges from a gumball-machine-like contraption. These exuberant and enchantingly offbeat volumes are just the ticket for ages 4-8.
Check out the related "I Spy" display case at the Central Children's department for an in-person picture puzzle made up of more than 100 tiny toys and trinkets.

FAYETTE, Iowa (March 10, 2014) – There is a famous quote by anthropologist Margaret Mead that says, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." The heart of that quote is that opportunity and change can be spearheaded by a few individuals with the potential to have a positive impact on the future. That is happening at Upper Iowa University right now. What began as a grassroots effort by a few students to form a cheerleading squad has grown into a recognized varsity team with potential for growth and opportunity for generations to come thanks to a $1.5 million endowment by alumna Diane Harms, Class of 1973. The Diane Kinkead Harms Cheer Endowment will fund a full-time head coach, as well as operational costs to ensure longevity of the program with the goal of forming a competitive cheer team. An additional $150,000 gift from Harms will provide immediate support to fund program operations.
Last May, UIU students Dacia Bassett of Fayette, Iowa, and Amber Davis of Chicago, Ill., had the idea to resurrect the former Upper Iowa cheer program. Davis, a former high school cheerleader and member of an all-star competition squad that performed a halftime show for the WNBA Chicago Sky, had noticed other students around campus wearing their high school cheerleading team shirts. "We thought we should try and get the team going again," said Davis.
They recruited others and then approached Brock Wissmiller, UIU assistant athletic director for external operations, with an idea to cheer at Upper Iowa Peacock athletic events and perform during halftime at Homecoming. "I thought it was a great idea," said Wissmiller. "We worked to find them a place to practice and an advisor in Kate Grover, director of our UIU Rec Center and a former cheerleader."
Throughout the summer, the squad practiced cheers, and added stunts thanks to Sabrina Schmitt '00, a former UIU cheerleader who volunteered her time. As Upper Iowa students headed back to class in the fall, the small cadre designed and hung flyers around campus to increase interest. Through their efforts, more joined the squad and 15 women cheered on the Peacocks.
Avid supporters of Upper Iowa University, alumni Steve and Diane Harms are often seen at Peacock athletic events, especially football. Steve, a native of Sumner, Iowa, played for the Peacocks for four years; Diane, who hails from Whittier, Iowa, cheered for three years at UIU. Diane had felt for many years that without cheerleaders, athletic events seemed to lack the enthusiasm she remembered from her days on the squad.
"For me, sports and cheerleading go together," she said. "When I saw the students cheering at Homecoming, I was excited! I heard their story about how these two young women persisted to bring cheerleading back to Upper Iowa. I was impressed. At halftime, I spoke to Dave Miller and told him I would like to buy uniforms for the new squad."
"Upper Iowa has a loyal friend and supporter in Steve and Diane Harms," said UIU Athletics Director David Miller. "What they have given to our University and how they have supported and enriched students' college experience over the years is to be commended."
Recently, Wissmiller, Miller, Grover and UIU President Bill Duffy presented Diane with the unique opportunity of endowing a cheer program at Upper Iowa. "She did not hesitate," Miller added. "An endowed cheer program is rare in Division II athletics. With the addition of the competitive component, a new Upper Iowa University program allows us to recruit highly sought after student-athletes and adds value to our University."
"It's a great day to be a Peacock," said Grover, the squad's advisor. "This is a prime example – student initiatives are so important. Without the students and their perseverance, we would never have thought of doing this. They sparked an interest in our amazing donor, and together they have made this possible."

Jason Garrett gains players' support: 'I believe that he can make us winners in a timely fashion'
If Jason Garrett gets the head coaching job as expected, then Jerry Jones has made the right decision, players said.
Garrett's leadership helped turn around a team that started 1-7 and had virtually quit halfway through the season.
"I think he's proved a lot to everyone on the outside," veteran linebacker Keith Brooking said. "I think everyone on the inside knew immediately his approach. The first day he took over it was like he had been planning for this all his life. And he really has.
"I think our record, what we did the last eight games of our season, considering what the first half was like, says a lot about Jason Garrett and his ability to lead a football team."
Under Garrett, the Cowboys went 5-3. And their losses to New Orleans, Philadelphia and Arizona were by a combined seven points. He did not have starting quarterback Tony Romo, and he lost receivers Dez Bryant, Kevin Ogletree and Sam Hurd.
In Sunday's season finale, third-string quarterback Stephen McGee was throwing to rookie Manny Johnson, who was making his NFL debut, in key situations. A team that seemed ready to quit after a 45-7 loss to Green Bay played as if something was at stake despite having no shot at the playoffs.
"The only difference that I notice is the tempo in practice is a lot faster," nosetackle Jay Ratliff said. "The players responded to that. It's more competitive, and that paid off for us. We ended up playing like a team. We didn't slow down, and finished the way we wanted."
Players stressed the importance of not having to change offensive systems. Garrett has been offensive coordinator for four seasons.
"I think this system has held up throughout, even when Tony's gone down," Witten said. "If that were to change, you'd have to adjust. Any time you're four or five years deep in an offense, everything's just clicking, it's like in the back of your head. That allows you to be even more detailed and add to your package."
According to players, Garrett's strength is his leadership. He managed to change the culture of the team almost overnight. Garrett has stressed accountability, dependability and trust among teammates.
"I think we're going to be a lot better with him in charge," Witten said. "I think he has a clear message. He has a plan and he does a great job of making that plan is clear and giving us the best chance to be at our best, coaches and players, on Sunday.
"I believe in him. I believe that he can make us winners in a timely fashion. All his messages, his mentality, all of that is so we're at our best, and those distractions are eliminated and you focus on being the best football player you can be."

|Myocardial injury is decreased by late remote ischaemic preconditioning and aggravated by tramadol in patients undergoing cardiac surgery: a randomised controlled trial.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20847065 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The purpose of this study was to test, whether the late phase of remote ischaemic preconditioning (L-RIPC) improves myocardial protection in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cold-crystalloid cardioplegia and whether preoperative tramadol modifies myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury using the same group of patients in a single-blinded randomized controlled study. One hundred and one adult patients were randomly assigned to either the L-RIPC, control or tramadol group. L-RIPC consisted of three five-minute cycles of upper limb ischaemia and three five-minute pauses using blood pressure cuff inflation 18 hours prior to the operation. Patients in the tramadol group received 200 mg tramadol retard at 19:00 hours, the day before the operation and at 06:00 hours. Serum troponin I levels were measured at eight, 16 and 24 hours after surgery. Myocardial samples for inducible and endothelial nitric oxide synthases (iNOS, eNOS) estimation were drawn twice: before and after cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass from the auricle of the right atrium. We found that L-RIPC can reduce injury beyond the myocardial protection provided by cold-crystalloid cardioplegia, and tramadol worsened myocardial injury after CABG. Expressions of iNOS were increased in the control (significantly) and L-RIPC groups and dampened in the tramadol group.

Fujifilm's X100 semi-pro camera ships in March
updated 07:20 am EST, Tue February 8, 2011
Fujifilm commits to FinePix X100 launch date
Fujifilm on Tuesday detailed the US launch of its unique FinePix X100. The advanced pseudo-rangefinder will reach the US in March and will cost $1,200 in its current configuration. It will have extras on launch that include a quick-access leather case, a pair of guide 20 and guide 42 TTL flashes, and a bundled adapter ring and lens hood to integrate with other lenses.
The X100's design revolves around an APS-C sized 12.3-megapixel CMOS sensor that gives it DSLR-level photos in a compact body. Its fixed and fixed-focus 23mm f2 lens is also key and, combined with the sensor, gives it very fast performance as well as bright, relatively noise-free images and shallow depth of field in macros and portraits. The camera normally has a safe light sensitivity zone of ISO 200 to 6,400 but can expand this one stop in either direction, to 100 or 12,800, for special shooting conditions.
Its nostalgic design also hides a unique hybrid rangefinder that can show the real optical output of the lens but either overlay electronic information or switch entirely to electronic to expand the autofocusing points from 25 to 49. Typical higher end camera software comes into play with RAW shooting, 720p video, a motion (sweep) panorama capture and four different exposure bracketing modes.

Profile Of a Young, Female Lorde Fan
It's the week in between Coachella weekends, and while some bands descended on Pomona, Orange County and Los Angeles as part of Golden Voice's "Localchella," others opted to retreat to Las Vegas and perform at The Cosmopolitan's Boulevard Pool and Chelsea theater as part of the resort's Valley to Vegas Spring Series.

"For Revival, Elections and Key Leaders"
After decades of "calls to prayer and repentance," one question stands preeminent. "Why has the moral and spiritual collapse continued mostly unabated?" In Forty Days of Seeking God, believers discover the difference in merely "saying" general prayers and praying "effective, fervent prayers from utterly yielded hearts." (James 5:16) Saints learn to move from merely "saying we repent," to fully yielding to Christ in loving surrender.
In Scripture, it is clear that God is neither fooled nor impressed by general prayers and surface pledges of repentance. (Ezekiel 33:31; Joel 2:12-13) Yet, when saints learn to fully pray God's heart and surrender to Christ's Lordship, nations can still be shaken! (2 Chronicles 7:14; Jeremiah 29:13) In this practical tool, believers will experience the power of strategic biblical prayers and a covenant that embraces genuine repentance.
With signs of judgment rising rapidly and a most pivotal election looming, it is time for forty days of deepest prayer and repentance. Yet, no is the time for more just than another prayer "event." We must embrace a genuine return to God through fervent prayer and deepest repentance. In Forty Days of Seeking God, believers will learn to truly seek the Reviver, not just revival.

The Bible says that there may be times that we meet angels without knowing it. Well, I met such an angel the other day.
My car quit on me at McDonald's here in Myerstown. Suddenly, I couldn't steer anymore. I finally made it into a parking spot. It was crooked, but I was out of the way.
I tried to call my children for help, but my cellphone was dead. I hadn't charged it.
Suddenly a car pulled in beside me with a lovely young lady with several children. She asked me if something was wrong. I told her my steering went out. She knew about engines, so she checked my steering oil; it was a little low. She fetched some and put it in, but that didn't do it.
I said I must call Ken Wagner to come for it. She said she could take me over to the garage, and so she did. Ken said he would fetch it, but I needed a way home.
This angel of mine said, "I'll take her home." She brought me home and carried my groceries to my porch.
And, shame on me, I failed to get her name and address. I said "thank you" and gave her a big hug and said, "You are my angel. I know God sent you to help me." So once again I say "thanks a million;" you are a wonderful young lady. This old world still has a lot of good people in it like you.

One of the things Doug and I wanted to do with this column is to highlight the regional differences in car choices – not just in condition and value but the overall selection. Any surprise that humid, sunny Atlanta has a dearth of Audis while snowy Canada is awash in them?
Tag: audi s4
Once upon a time, S was for Audis what M was for BMWs. A decade ago Audi took an A4, added a pair of turbos to the V6, stiffened the suspension, plus-oned the alloys, and tagged the result the S4. A special driving experience that became more special (if less moddable) when the 250-horsepower turbo V6 was replaced by a 340-horsepower V8 a few years later. The A4 was redesigned for 2009, and this year there's a new S4. The V8 has been tossed in favor of a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 that kicks out 333 horsepower. Is the resulting car worthy of the S?

We were having a discussion about our early TV viewing experiences in the newsroom the other day.
Many of us had an experience that shook our world...when we discovered one of our favorite movies ended wildly differently than we remembered it in our childhood.
One of us related how they watched "West Side Story" over and over until they knew all the words and dances by heart....up through the song "Tonight, Tonight". It wasn't until high school that the co-ed saw the rest of the movie and realized that Tony dies in the end . BIG SHOCK!
I, myself, was not allowed to watch the Wizard of Oz beyond the munchkins big scene for years as a kid. With each passing year, I could stay up a little later, and eventually met the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodsman, and even the cowardly Lion. But for years, my sister could only watch up to the flying monkeys, and then it was bedtime.
You can imagine that we had a big surprise coming when we found out that Dorthy missed her ride home! (And even more when you watch the Tin Woodsman untie the balloon so that it leaves! Check it out!)
But my big surprise came when I walked past the common room in college where the color TV was playing the annual Wizard of Oz showing, and I discovered that the whole movie was not in black and white. Imaging my shock when Dorthy walks out of her Gray house into the color of Oz! What a stunner of a surprise! For years, my family only had a black and white family TV on which we watched EVERYTHING until the early 1970s.
Others shared their experiences, including more than a few that have only seen selected parts of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" because of all the spiders on the back of Indiana Jones and guide Alfred Molina at the start of the golden idol sequence. Others had similar experiences where family members would tell them to "Look Away! Don't look at the screen until we tell you to." But that's not quite the same thing.
As a kid, I had come in and gone out of major motion pictures being shown on TV in the 1960s, so that many times I have watched a movie only to discover that I knew the plot or the movie from prior viewings. This also was common with the advent of movies on cable TV in the 1980s, when you'd come home and join a movie in progress.
Nowadays, with variant editions of movie being released...the director's cut...the broadcast TV version...the DVD collector's edition, with scenes switched around, edited for content or additional lines or special effects added or subtracted, it's not so surprising when you discover there was more to Star Trek II in the argument between Spock and Dr. McCoy in "The Wrath of Khan".
But my latest surprise was viewing the recent remake of "The Stepford Wives" and finding that the director, Frank Oz, wisely removed some of the biggest special effects minutes of the remake, so that Bette Midler's character "Bobbie" DOES NOT behave like inspector Gadget after all. I'm convinced that the movie works better without the revelation that she's a complete robot, but only hints at it until the ending.
My point with this movie is that there's an additional scene or two tacked onto the ending, that really changes the feel of the ending.
The same was true in the Parkersburg-related Sci -Fi classic "Blade Runner", which has an entire voice-over narration removed from the movie, and a cheery upbeat ending to the movie removed in the Directors' Cut special edition. Talk about changing the meaning of a movie. The entire interpretation of the movie changes without that additional scene that clarifies who knew what and when.

Joplin, Mo., was a place of emotional highs and lows during the week of the one-year anniversary of the tornado that destroyed a third of the town on May 22, 2011.
Joplin, Mo., was a place of emotional highs and lows during the week of the one-year anniversary of the tornado that destroyed a third of the town on May 22, 2011.
President Barack Obama came to town on May 21 to give the commencement speech at the Joplin High School Class of 2012 graduation ceremony at Missouri Southern State University. Joplin residents eagerly anticipated the president's return visit – Obama spoke at a memorial ceremony at MSSU's Taylor Performing Arts Center about a week after the tornado struck – and observers lined the highway near Joplin Airport to watch the arrival of Air Force One.
When it was Obama's turn to speak at graduation, it was clear from the raucous cheering of the crowd that Joplin residents had not forgotten Obama's last visit, and that they knew he had kept his word to stand by the city every step of the way.
On the one-year anniversary of the tornado, members of the Joplin R-8 School District celebrated the city's and the district's ongoing recovery with groundbreaking ceremonies for the district's new elementary, middle and high schools. The groundbreakings were part of Operation Rising Eagle, the project to rebuild the district's schools that were destroyed by the EF5 tornado. They also honored the volunteers and voters — the city recently passed a $62 million bond measure to pay for the construction — who helped make the effort possible.
The tornado damaged or destroyed 10 of the district's 20 buildings and caused more than $100 million in damage. The district is rebuilding five schools: Joplin High School, the Franklin Technology Center, which shared a campus with the high school, East Middle School, Irving Elementary School and Emerson Elementary School, which will be renamed Elementary at East.
Later that day, an estimated 10,000 Joplin residents and volunteers from around the country who helped the city's recovery efforts gathered to participate in The Day of Unity, a tribute to loved ones lost and to the more than 130,000 volunteers who came from as far away as Japan to help them rebuild their city. The crowd converged for a commemorative walk from the City of Duquesne along the tornado's path to Cunningham Park, which is across the street from the destroyed St. John's Regional Medical Center.
The participants also learned that the Sisters of Mercy Health System had donated the hospital's campus for a new Stained Glass Theater, city museum and a reconstruction of the hospital's chapel, which would be built at its exact location and be used for "beginnings," or things such as weddings and birth celebrations.

* Rob Van Dam defeated Alberto Del Rio via pin. Solid match which saw Del Rio in control the majority of the time. The guy I sat next to went berserk over RVD and it was amazing. I was already pounding through my 5th beer of the night. RVD was insanely over due to the home state thing. RVD made a late rally and hit the frog splash for the victory.
* Summer Rae and Funkadactyles defeated Rosa Mendes, Eva Marie and Layla via pin. Plenty of botches throughout the match. Eva Maria in particular made plenty of mistakes. Summer Rae eventually chased Layla out of ring and to the back. Naomi used a distraction to use her finisher to pin Rosa.
* Cesaro defeated Big E via pinfall. Plenty of hype before the match (including a Paul Heyman pretaped promo). Slow paced match that included a variety of power moves from both wrestlers. Cesaro used a distraction with a turnbuckle and a chair shot to hit the neutralizer for the victory. Big E received a standing ovation upon his exit.
* The Usos defeated Rhodes Brothers and The Wyatt Family (minus Bray) via pinfall to retain the WWE Tag Team Championship. Cody was the star of the match with numerous high spots, including a dive outside the ring to the Wyatts. Cody even did the worm and tried to get Erick Rowen to dance, but it didn't happen. Amid the chaos an Uso rolled up Erick Rowan for the win. After the match, the Wyatts attacked the Rhodes brothers and the Usos made the save. Match of the night.
* Sin Cara defeated Fandango via pinfall. Surprisingly good contest. Sin Cara hit a modified Angle slam for the victory.
* Kofi Kingston defeated Ryback via pinfall. Kofi controlled the majority of the match. After hitting a dive outside the ring to Ryback, Kofi really nursed his back. Kofi the SOS for the victory.
* Sheamus defeated Kane via disqualification to retain the US title. Plenty of near falls in this match as both men hit all of their key moves. Before receiving a Brogue kick, Kane gave a low blow. He followed this up with numerous chair shots. Sheamus recovered and hit a Brogue kick to send the crowd home happy.
All in all , a fun show.

Runners compete at the NJSIAA North II Group III boys cross country sectionals at Central Park of Morris County on Saturday in Parsippany.

Ben DeVenezia knows all about history, especially when it comes to the Mountain Lakes boys cross country program.
"I knew that Stephen (Lewandowski) had won the last three (state sectional titles) and we won the last two as a team," said DeVenezia, a sophomore on the Mountain Lakes squad. "I knew that there was a tradition and I wanted to make my coaches proud."
However, DeVenezia faced adversity, much like many others who lost something to Superstorm Sandy during the last two weeks. ...

Bob Wood (author)
Robert Edward "Bob" Wood (born February 1957) is an American author, teacher, activist, and potential candidate for Congress. As a 28-year-old high school history teacher from Kalamazoo, Michigan, (though teaching in Seattle, Washington at the time), he wrote the 1988 best selling book Dodger Dogs to Fenway Franks. In June 2008, the sports blog, Baseball Musings, wrote a story commemorating the 20th anniversary of Dodger Dogs to Fenway Franks.[1]
First book[edit]
During the summer of 1985, Wood visited each of the 26 Major League Baseball stadiums. He graded the sites on eight criteria: layout and upkeep, the ball field, seating, the scoreboard, food, courtesy of employees, facilities and atmosphere. Giving grades from A+ to D, Wood concluded that the two best ball parks in the majors were Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles and Royals Stadium in Kansas City. The worst, he decided, were Houston's Astrodome and Toronto's Exhibition Stadium. The book was well known for its humor and Wood's tales from the road. Living on a teacher's salary, Wood sold his old Ford Pinto and bought a 1985 Toyota Tercel for the trip. In order to save money, he would often use Kampgrounds of America during the journey and wrote to every Major League team to ask for free tickets.
Second book[edit]
His follow up book in 1989 was Big Ten Country: A Journey Through One Football Season. It focused on the college football stadiums and towns in the Big Ten Conference, but did not reach the critical nor commercial success of Dodger Dogs to Fenway Franks.
Career and activism[edit]
Wood, a 1980 graduate of Michigan State University, now teaches government, economics, and a course on Africa at Oakridge High School in Muskegon, Michigan. He also podcasts and maintains a blog "The Buddha Said I am Awake" , known as "The Buddha Blog", on the school's public website.
Wood is highly involved with leftist political activism and led a group of students, the "Super Dupers", in protesting the Democratic Party's use of superdelegates during the 2008 presidential election.[2] A staunch proponent of aiding Third World citizens with microfinancing via Kiva Loans, Wood often states "Action Counts Today!"[3]
Wood has never been married and currently resides in Grand Haven, Michigan.
Campaign for Congress[edit]
Wood is considered by several pundits[who?] to be a potential Democratic candidate for Congress from Michigan's 2nd congressional district. The seat is being vacated by Republican incumbent Peter Hoekstra.[4] To date, a "Draft Mr. Wood for Congress Committee" is in the formative stages and has adopted "Action Counts Today!" as the campaign's slogan.[citation needed]

This product is outstanding when used as a leave-in or a rinse out conditioner with Shea Moisture products. I also used it under Jane Carter Solution Incredible Curls and with Design Essential Honey Curlforming Custard with honey and chamomile. Wonderful results!!

I love most of SheaMoisture products. When I first used this, it made my hair flake once my hair dried. One day, I decided to give this product another chance. I was in a hurry and I didn't have time to deep condition my hair. The second time I used those product I loved it! It made my hair super moisturized without weighing my hair down or too greasy and without flaking one dried the next day. I section my hair and used just a dime size and comb through. I use it together with my Cantu Curl Activator Cream. Now that I know how to use this product, I'm definitely going to use it whenever I don't have time too deep condition my hair. If you have 4 type hair, I would suggest using it with your go to leave in conditioner or cream to help with slippage. Don't use too much of it. If you do, it will weigh your hair down and greasy. A little goes a long way.

Hair Type 2a/ 2b. Low Porosity, High Density, Medium Hair.
Detangles well, but it made my hair greasy & unmanageable. This clearly isn't suited for me, so i can't really rate it poorly.

Wow! Smooth, chunky, juicy curls. Moisture, moisture, moisture!! It beats out KCKT any day. SheaMoisture, please make a detangler for EVERY line?! I see lemongrass, coconut hibiscus, fruit infusion...
Posted by formeitworks (Type 3c) on 06/25/2015
This is a product that I'm glad I gave a second chance. The first time I used it as a detangler, I was not impressed at all. It did nothing for my tangles. However, after my BC, I decided to give it another try but this time as a moisturizer. This product in conjunction with my curl definer, gives me soft, moisturized, defined curls for a full day and with no crunch. Here it is time that I should Moisturize and Seal for the night, but my hair is still feeling soft, and moisturized from this morning...This Shea Moisture product will definitely be repurchased.
Posted by bbkeylah (Type Unknown) on 06/17/2015
yesss this is by far the best SM product for my hair.
Posted by PaulaLawrence9 (Type 4a) on 04/03/2015
This is the best leave in I have ever used. When looking for a product the first thing I am curious about is the scent. This smells great, it's the same scent as the rest of the shea butter line but it is very light. Personally i think this one smells better. The consistency is not like kckt (an old favorite of mine). This leave in is thick and it doesn't foam in my hair. My hair is very smooth and moisturized after I apply it to my wet hair in the shower. It does leave a greasy feeling on the hands, however it absorbs into my hair very well leaving it extremely soft. My only con for this product is I think the bottle is too small for the price it should have been 12oz. I will continue to buy this product during BOGO sales because it is now my staple leave in.
Type 3c/4a

I've seen a ton of mixed reviews on this product and decided to try it for myself during one of Shea Moisture's many sales. I purchased the newer version that has glycerin as its first ingredient so I'm unable to compare the previous formula. I should also note that, although the label says "detangler" it is not similar to Knot Today; I've seen the comparison a couple of times and the ingredients are not similar and neither is its consistency (maybe its also the similar packaging and price that leads to this comparison). This product is a slam dunk! Traditionally SM products have been a let down for me so I was surprised this worked so well. The texture is thick like a Vaseline or Aquaphor so I apply it to damp (others may prefer soaking wet) hair. Its also so thick that I have to stand the bottle upside down, shake, and squeeze it very hard in order to get it out. Although it says detangler, I wouldn't use this to detangle dry hair. The smell is a light shea buttery, earthy smell and is the same smell featured in the other products in this line; its not very noticeable overall. I, myself, use this as a leave-in (as prescribed in the instructions) after I wash and deep condition my hair and it hydrates and enhances my curls. I'm rather moderate to heavy handed with product because I like to make sure my curls are going to stay hydrated for the week while braving the elements and work outs and get 3 to 4 uses per bottle. I usually pair this with a butter, focusing on my ends, and a gel to top off my "wash-n-go", but this could very well be used on its own. I do get frizz, but this product doesn't claim to eliminate it and I'm comfortable with the amount of frizz I get. I would definitely recommend this product for those with similar hair types. I would also advice those with looser curls or thinner strands that this product will probably be heavy, perhaps even greasy, in your hair. My only critique of this product is the that I wish it was in a larger size and had a pump for convenience. Hope this helped someone!
Stats: Corkscrew, medium density, medium strand thickness, low to medium porosity, 3c

A hit and miss for me. I watched a review on it and immediately went out to by it. When this worked for me it WORKED, my hair was moisturizer and my curls looked so nice and plump, when this didn't work it kind of left my hair feeling dry and frizzy. I think the hit and miss is because of the glycerin which my hair has a bit of a problem with.
Posted by Sweetcurlsgurl (Type 4b) on 12/17/2014
since using this product my hair has been EXTREMELY soft. However to use this product your hair must be soaking wet and a little goes a long way (im a bit heavy handed) if u use too much itll be a greasy feeling to your hair. The only reason it 4 curls is because it doesnt detangle well i have thick coarse 4b hair
Posted by Curlygomez (Type 3c) on 11/03/2014
I love this product line of Shea Moisture. I have had positive experiences with all of the products in this line that I have tried so far and this one was no exception! The slip isn't the greatest for me(YMMV) but is better than most. What sold me on this product was the moisture! My curls are soft, bouncy, and moisturized every time I use this product. My 3c curls are not as frizzy anymore since I have added this product to my regimen. (Living in my part of the midwest frizz is a CONSTANT battle)
Posted by mrstauguste (Type 3c) on 10/26/2014
This is my JAMMMMMMMM! OMG this is best leave in conditioner ever made...I will never be without it. When I did the big chop I was struggling with dry hair...but with continued use of this leave in...I don't have that issue anymore...I just love it..there aren't enough to words to express my deep love for this product.
Posted by curlsofgold (Type Unknown) on 09/30/2014
Top 3 on my leave in's. This beats Kinky Curly in moisture, my hair is left incredibly soft & tangle free.
Posted by Eleriero (Type 4a) on 06/20/2014
Randomly saw this in the store and picked it up. When I saw the ingredients in the back, I had no expectations about its actual detangling ability (which really isn't a worry for me since I detangle WAAAAAY before using this product) but it looked like a really nice leave in so I bought it.
I can't speak for other ladies in the 4s, but this was AMAZING!! It felt nice and soft going into my hair and it helped to melt down the little tangles I had left, great moisturizer and (well, I think it's a) great detangler! Love it. New HG product for me!
Posted by soanelymarie (Type 3b) on 06/10/2014
I really love this product I have 3B hair. At fist I apply this product on damp hair and was horrible. But the second time I used it in soaking wet hair and was WONDERFULL I looooove it. And Detangle my hair perfectly. I use it when I want more moisture that my Kinky Curly Knot Today give me.
Posted by damatoam (Type 2c) on 06/06/2014
I am surprised at the reviews because I love this product! I was bad to my hair this past winter, coloring it a bunch of times, and this is the product that saved it. Well, this plus deep conditioners, but the conditioners alone were not enough to detangle the parched, porous mess I had. When my hair is healthier, this can double as leave-in and styler for me. Plus I can find it in my local stores, which is always a bonus.
Posted by Nephele (Type Unknown) on 06/04/2014
When a product has "detangler" in the name, I usually assume it will have some type of slip, at least if it's targeted towards natural hair. This product doesn't have slip, however the oiliness of the product did make it easier to pull apart tangles and knots, so it's not a detangler in the traditional since, but it does have detangling properties. However, I use this more as a moisturizer than a detangler. This product is pretty oily upon application, however I find that by the next day most of the oiliness is gone. Overall, I enjoy this product. I don't use it often, and many might be turned off by it's lack of slip and oiliness, but it works for me.
Posted by CurlyRachelinSF (Type 3c) on 05/28/2014
It left my hair really greasy, and that is really hard for me because I have really porous hair. My hair usually sucks everything up like a sponge. I just thing that SheaMoisture has really stretched themselves too thin. they need to get focused.
Posted by Curliness (Type 3a) on 03/09/2014
This product is a really great leave in. You have go put it in soaking wrt hair like the instructions say. If you put it in damp hair it can be a little sticky, but goes away when hair dries! The consistency is similar to KCKT, but a little stickier. All in all a great product!! Not too heavy for fine thin hair :)
Posted by le4c (Type Unknown) on 02/18/2014
I purchased this product with high hopes since Shea Moisture is my go-to brand. This product, however, is not one I would not consider to be a "detangler" for 4c hair, or any in the 4 category. My hair felt moisturized with this product, but I still had to reach for my aloe vera gel to assist with the detangling aspect.

Reasonable fans can understand the Detroit Pistons might struggle a little without three regulars of the playing rotation.
But they can't understand the lifeless team that has returned from the All-Star break.
And after the latest embarrassing effort -- a 114-103 home thumping by the Atlanta Hawks -- they can at least ask for better efforts than this. ...
