Storm brings snow, chill to Westmoreland, Fayette
The winter storm that brought a mixture of rain, freezing rain and a few inches of snow in Westmoreland and Fayette counties on Tuesday is expected to blanket the region on Wednesday morning with a steady snowfall, tapering to snow showers in the afternoon and then flurries, the National Weather Service said.
The weather service in Moon is predicting that Westmoreland and Fayette counties will get 2 to 4 inches of snow overnight, plus an additional 1 to 2 inches of snow during the day, as a result of lake-effect snow, said meteorologist Richard Kane. The snowfall on the ridges of the Laurel Mountains in eastern Westmoreland and Fayette could be as much as 6 inches, including several inches on Wednesday before the snowstorms move east, Kane said.
The snowfall will be followed by below-freezing temperatures on Thanksgiving, with highs only in the mid-20s, and temperatures even lower in the ridges, Kane said.
"The snow will be around for a while," Kane said.
What might not be good news for the thousands of people traveling to join family and friends for Thanksgiving has turned out to be a blessing for the region's ski resorts on the border of Fayette and Somerset counties.
Seven Springs Mountain Resort and Hidden Valley Resort are planning to be open Friday, Saturday and Sunday for daytime skiing and snowboarding, said Anna Weltz, spokeswoman for both resorts.
About eight slopes and trails will be open at Seven Springs, while skiers will have six-to-eight slopes available at Hidden Valley.
"However, if this storm pans out, we could add more terrain," Weltz said Tuesday.
Both resorts are expected to be closed Monday through Thursday of next week, Weltz said.
Emergency dispatchers in Westmoreland, Fayette and Somerset counties reported a handful of weather-related vehicle accidents on Tuesday morning in each county. None of the crashes were serious, officials said.
Despite the steady rain throughout the day, there were no reports of flooding as of Tuesday evening.

|Oral contraceptive steroid induced platelet coagulant hyperactivity: dissociation of in vivo and in vitro effects.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 3424284 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The use of oral contraceptives (OC) has been associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic events in a subset of women. Factors predisposing to this problem are still not clearly defined although an increased platelet coagulant activity (CA) has been reported. This study was designed to evaluate the CA of platelets from asymptomatic current OC users compared with control subjects. The asymptomatic OC users were found to have evidence of hypercoagulability in the form of increased availability of platelet CA. These findings were present in both collagen stimulated and unstimulated platelets. In order to understand the mechanism we examined the in vitro effects of estradiol and/or progesterone on platelets. Platelets from normal males were incubated for one hour with estrogen and/or progesterone. There was no significant difference in CA of hormone treated platelets compared with control platelets from the same donor. CA was analyzed in platelets exposed to epinephrine, adenosine diphosphate, and collagen in the platelet aggregometer. Although a dose dependent effect was observed on CA of platelets exposed to the range of aggregating agents, the results show no significant difference between CA of the hormone treated and control platelets (p greater than 0.05). Likewise, platelet aggregation and release of nucleotide were not different between hormone treated and control platelets. Thus a direct effect of the hormones on platelets is an unlikely mechanism causing the increased CA seen in OC users.

TV Pick: "Who doesn't love a comeback?" Lindsay Lohan guest stars on Glee
By Oliver Franklin-Wallis 18 May 12
Glee nears its series-altering finale
(Quinn's off to Yale, Rachel and Kurt to drama school, Finn to...
who cares?) with the highlight of the season so far: Lindsay Lohan and Perez Hilton guest starring
as the Nationals judges. Lohan is in particularly self-deprecating
mode - best summed up by her response to being described as a
"twelve-time Teen Choice Award nominee": "I was robbed for
Freaky Friday!"
Glee is on tonight at 9.30 on Sky 1 HD.

Politics Counts
Foreign Policy
No where in the Constitution does it say people have the right to own guns. You can't find that phrase in there.
Pratt is right but the answer would be to ban high capacity clips like laughner used or have longer watiting periods not just background checks
@Original intent - how will I bear them if I don't own them?
Bear does not necessarily mean own. It can be a temporary "bearing", and, language in the constitution indicates it may not have even applied to the general population.
That said, I wish we could CCW here in CA.
And to go back on topic, I think Obama did a great job assessing the issue as it relates to gun ownership. I don't see how someone could disagree, unless they want to make it a partisan issue and/or are just blatantly irresponsible people ::shrug::
Original intent, you are correct. The constitution does not address the ownership of guns. What it does address is the right to keep (possess) and bear (carry) arms (weapons). It does not have any language that limits what kind of arms the people may keep and bear, not the size, nor the number. It simply says we may posses (keep) and carry (bear) them.
"Bear does not necessarily mean own. It can be a temporary "bearing", and, language in the constitution indicates it may not have even applied to the general population."
To add to that, arms is not defined in any meaningful way. It may very well be that the Founders only intended that individuals be able to bear muzzle loading, flint-lock muskets.
And I have the right to bear a nuclear missle according to the Constitution.
This is nothing more than a pathetic attempt to divert attention from skyrocketing gas prices. Perhaps a small bone thrown to his anti-gun supporters, but mostly just trying to divert attention from the calls to quit blocking American energy production.
I don't usually happen to get news from WSJ. I just want to say I am glad they are using Gun Owners of America as a source, and not assuming that the NRA speaks for everyone.
If people are deemed dangerous enough that their constitutional right must be abrogated then they are much too dangerous to be wandering around in public PERIOD! No need for the limitation of guns; just remove the threat. Something tells me that the method Obama and his ilk prefers is just another backdoor method of destroying the peoples' rights! They will continue to enlarge this "list" of prohibited people until it includes as many as they can get away with. Have an opinion that isn't in line with theirs and you will be labeled an "extremist" who is too dangerous to own a gun!
Nowhere in the Constitution does it declare that thousands of know-nothing right-wing editors, columnists, bloggers and talk show hosts must control the dialogue and conversation of the United States of America...and instinctively insult anyone who has a different point-of-view with child-like hate speech. I just read over the great document and none of that is in there. Yet, that's what we have. So much for original intent.
If this is truly a dialog and bi-partisan effort there will be meaningful change to the byzantine state and city regulations that make lawful exercise of the Constitutional right affirmed by President Obama all but impossible. That said, I believe I have read this book before and know how it ends. Cliff notes version:
1. Proposals will centralize government role and control.
2. Any who object to the proposals are labeled as unpatriotic or "the enemy" - quotes.
3. Attempt is made to pass only those proposals made by the administration - it used to work when one party controlled everything but we might be spared in this case.
I'll keep an open mind, but the scenario above is where I'd put money were I to wager it in a government approved fashion of the day.
Wow look at all of the Constitutional Scholars on this board that feel that their interpretation of the 2nd amendment is the only interpretation.
Also lets ask Obama how strict gun laws work out for the common law abiding citizen. Lets take a look at Obama Boy's neck of the woods, namely Chicago. One of the highest crime ridden cities in the nation along with the most draconian gun laws in the city.
So bad in fact with crime that they are trying to bribe the Chicago cops to actually live in the city by offering to help them pay their rent if they live in Chicago.
Not even the Chicago Cops will live in Chicago.
The obvious intent of the 2nd is to prevent people from being powerless against government abuse. History has shown disarmament of the populace to be a predecessor to abuse. In that light, the 2nd should be interpreted to allow weapons of reasonable capability to allow a large group to deter oppression. That doesn't mean a mob of 100 people needs to be able to conquer an Air Force base, but the government should be made to feel that, say, locking up an entire city would be intolerably difficult.
As for Obama, the chilly reception to his words may be a matter of experience: Obama tends to throw words like "bipartisan" into conversations that are anything but. A telling example was his recent SOTU, when he spoke of a need for "bipartisan" Social Security reform, then promptly rattled off a list of things that were off the table, which included every non-Democratic proposal out there. Bipartisan indeed!
Interpret all you want. Gun ownership is not addressed in the Constitution.
The government isn't going to lock up an entire city. We might have needed more guns a long time ago but, we don't need them anymore. The government doesn't unfairly oppress anyone.
It's not hypocritical at all to take rights away from gun owners but then insist that mine be left alone.
Too little, too late. The president had a chance to make a substantive and powerful statement on the radical pro-gun violence laws that have turned America into a battleground. Talking about "gun safety" two months after the massacre is weak...
You are a foul-mouthed idiot. We don't need guns anymore, and the government never does anything wrong, huh? I can't believe you get to vote.
I'm guessing that one of the hallmarks of an unstable person that they would be looking for is when someone ain't a registered Democrat?
I'm also guessing that the American people don't want to be deprived of Constitutional rights if they haven't been convicted of anything. Hey, but the liberals are great for wanting to put us on their secret lists....
It runs deep.
ok where is your dislike button ? ? Obama blames guns , well for one thing it may be different if the bad guys didnt also have illegal guns , Lord knows though that for all the idea's in this world to mess the little man over all these brilliant people out there no one can figure out how to control bad guys getting guns and drugs isnt that odd ??? You say guns kill people , well then i suppose pencils are the fault for misspelling ? Guns do not kill people , people kill people especially when the guns are in the wrong hands . If they were honest and did a survery on how many people were killed with legal guns , It would never come close to the amount of people killed by people with illegal handguns . Why do they want to take anything away from people that is a right to have ? communism and socialism more and more every day wake up Americans , its getting later then you think !
communism and socialism more and more every day wake up Americans , its getting later then you think !
There is plenty of evidence gun control does NOT work in a study done on the subject. They are easily stolen with someone with criminal intent. The only thing proven to work is to lock up the crimnal when they use a gun for good. NO plea bargins and soft judges. Loftner bought a gun after passing a federal background check. Why he was not found to be judged incompetent by a judge. In Europe where gun laws are extreme, there have been just as many mass shootings such as in Englan last year 12 dead. England is an island where only the criminals are armed and the citizens are victimized.
The left loons in Washingtron and elsewhere would place all tea party people on the DHS watch list if we let them. They are traitors to the Constitution. Either we have freedom or we don't. Shall Not Be Infringed means just waht it says.

If you take away guns from law-abiding citizens...then whose left with guns? THE CRIMINALS. ALL guns purchases will become a part of an UNDERGROUND economy. Innocent civilians will be left unprotected from criminals with illegal, unlicensed guns. YOU Can't TAKE THIS RIGHT away!
I agree there are many people who are mentally unstable and are in no way, shape, or form, suitable for gun ownership. However, there are many citizens who respect weapons and treat them as a form of security, protection, and assurance.
actually in Switzerland, citizens are required by LAW to own guns....just saying.
they also have a relatively low crime rate...

text: Hey guys! My first post - found this forum filled with lots of smart minds. Maybe you can help me out here. I'm quite the novice, so bear with me, pls :) Anyways, I read somewhere (scientific american i believe) that strings (if they exist) cannot be crushed, or shrunk anymore than what they are now. So - when a star collapses heading for a neutron star, matter cracks up and becomes all neutrons. When gravity is strong enough, that might become an even denser quark star (wikipedia). But given more gravity we classically get the black hole. And the, for me, very strange thought of a singularity and infinity. What if the quarks in the former star collapses to bare strings? And that the collapse stops when the strings are naked and all packed snuggly together? What would that star look like? Very much like a black hole, i presume - really dense, small, and with a huge gravity for its size. But without the singularity. Can anyone do the math for a typical size of this star? Given that a string is belived to be around 10 sq -35 m long (and if we assume that the string is a tiny sphere of that diameter and not a 2 dimensional string) and that there is about 10 sq 42 atoms in a star? What do you say?

Icebox cookies are some of my faves this time of year. There's no two ways about it figuratively speaking. But literally speaking, there's two ways about it. Dueling ways. Cranberry Orange vs. Rosemary Orange ways.
Cranberry Orange is the safe pick. It's tart but sweet. Spiked with citrus. A flavor that's so familiar it's comforting. Dueling for attention is Rosemary Orange—the underdog. It's savory but sweet. Also spiked with citrus. But a flavor that's so unfamiliar your husband turns his nose up at the thought of it. He wont even sneak the cookie dough that often earns him a slap on the hand. That is until the Christmas miracle of all miracles happened. He relented and tried one. Can you guess what he said? Something every woman loves to hear—You're right. These ARE good. I may or may not have said something like—I told you so.
Go forth and duel with the familiar and unfamiliar this season. Can I recommend you start with these?
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks and vanilla and mix until combined. Reduce mixer speed to low, slowly adding in the flour mixture as well as the orange zest and cranberries OR rosemary until just combined.
- Divide dough in two. Place on individual sheets of plastic wrap. Roll into logs, about 10 inches long. Place in freezer for 5 minutes to firm up. Remove and roll logs in coarse sugar until coated. Return to freezer for 30 minutes or refrigerator for 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 325°. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a Silpat. Using a sharp knife, slice dough into 1/4? cookies (or slightly thicker). Bake for 12–15 minutes or until edges just start to golden.
- Allow cookies to cool for 3 minutes on the baking sheet. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to a week. Leftover dough can be stored in freezer. Slice with a sharp knife and bake frozen, adding 2-5 minutes to the baking time.

Top IT Organizations Meet Business Expectations
Clockwork93% of projects at enterprises with world-class IT organizations are delivered on time and on budget, compared to 47% at firms with average-performing IT departments.
Business Delivery57% of projects at organizations with elite IT departments meet ROI expectations, compared to 29% of projects at typical companies.
Autopilot: Supply Chain75% of supply-chain processes are automated at enterprises with high-performing IT departments, compared to 50% at other companies.
Autopilot: Business Processes85% of business processes at firms with first-rate IT organizations are automated, compared to only 48% at average companies.
Shrinking FootprintOrganizations with top-notch IT groups use only .07 data centers for every 1,000 users, compared to .4 data centers at typical companies.
Form FinishFirms with elite IT departments use just 1 technology platform per 1,000 users, compared to 3.5 tech platforms at other companies.
Scalable AppsOrganizations with first-rate IT use only 13.4 apps per 1,000 users, compared to 22.3 at average companies.
Align IT Metrics, Formalize Communications With Business100% of organizations with world-class IT departments come up with a performance scorecard to address these practices.
Standardize Applications and Process MethodologiesAn enterprisewide focus on apps and processes will streamline IT portfolios and increase their effectiveness.
Integrate Business Processes From End to EndThis will improve data quality, information access and performance visibility, while lowering data management costs.
Monitor IT and Business Outcomes75% of companies with high-performing IT "often" or "always" define and monitor tech architecture goals and metrics, compared to less than half of other firms.
What difference does a high-performing technology organization make? A lot! In fact, enterprises with world-class IT meet ROI expectations at twice the rate of other companies, and they spend 15 percent less on technology for each end user, according to recent research from The Hackett Group. The accompanying report, "The World-Class IT Advantage," depicts a wide range of bottom-line-boosting advantages of elite-level technology excellence. In all cases, these organizations view IT as a business-focused resource, and take an enterprisewide approach to simplifying tech acquisition and deployment in order to benefit processes and cut costs. "As companies grow, execute mergers and acquisitions, move into new markets and expand their product portfolios, many naturally see increased complexity that can negatively impact performance," says John Reeves, global IT advisory practice leader for The Hackett Group. "But this doesn't have to be the case. The performance of world-class IT organizations demonstrates that it truly is possible to do more with less, minimize cost and deliver higher qualities of service." IT executives from an estimated 100 Global 1000 companies took part in the research.

BOULDER CITY, Nev. (AP) - Proponents of a recall effort against two council members in Boulder City say they have gathered enough
signatures to force a special election.
Christine Milburn, a leader of the effort to recall Boulder City Council members Travis Chandler and Linda Strickland, says more than enough people have signed petitions, but she would not give a specific figure.
The petitioners have a Tuesday deadline to collect 1,085 valid signatures against Strickland and 1,268 signatures against Chandler.
A new interpretation of Nevada election law endorsed by Attorney
General Catherine Cortez Mastro made it tougher to recall elected
officials by saying voters could only sign a recall petition only if they voted in the election that put the targeted official into office.

West Seattle Crime Watch: Burglary victim's reminderJanuary 14, 2012 at 9:10 pm | In Crime, High Point, West Seattle news | 2 Comments
It's been quieter on the burglary front lately; we should hear the newest stats at the West Seattle Crime Prevention Council meeting on Tuesday. Meantime, an alert from a break-in victim near 29th and Raymond in High Point, who sent a note this afternoon:
We just filed a police report for a break-in to our garage. We had left the door unlocked because we planned to be in and out all day while we moved some things around. Around three I brought some boxes down and noticed the car doors were slightly ajar. I started looking around and found that a very old laptop and an iPod had been taken from one of the cars.
When the officer came to take our report she indicated that they had found some kids in another garage not too far away. We are now searching for serial numbers. (As I type I am on hold with Apple Support).
It is a good reminder to always keep your doors locked and to not leave valuables in your car.

This winter I have spent a fair amount of time & some money securing my house. The past 5 years working on first hill we have been experiencing increasing theft, and the theft of 2 work trucks at our house last spring has taught me that we need to prevent the opportunity to take from us. It is worth a few hundred dollars and some time versus coming home to broken, taken and inconvenienced. The methods to break in are getting more destructive as the slugcrap gets more desperate.
We really don't have much to take, but the feeling of chaos, anger and insecurity after the slugcrap has wrought their selfish existence in my life, I just needed to thwart their barfy actions. Thieves watch to see when we leave, so pay attention when you leave your house.
The back door was the weakest link in our house. I reinforced the knob & deadbolt, I applied film to the back door window so that they can't just bust it out, I have a heavy rolling tool box that I lock up against the back door when we leave (even just to go to the store). I lowered the locking mechanisms on the gates so they have to go through acrobatics to enter the yard. I'm organizing my house so that we can easily have a couple of dogs. I love dogs, but when you work alot you need at least 2 of them, and it's extra work if your not prepared.

There were at least five police cars in the HP neighborhood around 3 on Saturday after the burglaries had been reported. I didn't see anything going on around 29th & Raymond but they had three cars blocking Raymond at 34th and 32nd. The policeman I talked to said there were a couple of break-ins to garages. They had caught a couple of the kids in the act and were looking for one or two others.
Thank you to the SPD for being responsive and professional.

Tuesday March 6, 2012Doback and Lewark Advance to Respective Finals on Second Night of NCAA Zones
Auburn, Ala.
Auburn, Ala.
Two University of Florida divers advanced to the final round of NCAA Zone B Diving Regional competition Tuesday night at Auburns James. E. Martin Aquatic Center in an effort to earn a ticket to the NCAA Championship meet in just less than a week for the women, and right under two for the men.
Senior Kaylee Doback (Brandon, Fla.) continued on to the final round of 3-meter competition after finishing 13th during the afternoons preliminary session with a score of 293.60. In the evenings final six dives, Doback earned a combined score of 551.75 to finish 18th overall.
Auburns Vennie Dantin went on to finish atop of the standings in the 3-meter competition, followed by South Carolinas Courtney Forcucci and Tennessees Victoria Lamp.
Sophomore Mike Lewark (Davie, Fla.), who had a team-high 13th-place overall finish last night off the 3-meter boards, finished 17th in 1-meter competition Tuesday night with a combined 603.90 point total. Lewark entered the final round as the ninth-seed following a 311.35 performance in the mornings quarterfinal.
Teammates Chris Jones (Palm City, Fla.) and David Springfels (Bradenton, Fla.), finished 24th and 25th overall with scores of 267.75 and 266.20, respectively.
Florida States Thomas Neubacher finished first off the mens 1-meter boards followed by Auburns John Santeiu and Tennessees Ryan Helms.
With a double finish tonight on the mens side, the No. 9 priority spot is now open for another two divers to advance, while the 11-13 spots are open for women entering the final day of diving. Therefore, the top three spots off the platform for the women, and top-two for the men tomorrow will advance to the NCAA meet. Unless there is another double- or triple-finish on the platform.
The NCAA Zone B Diving Regional will come to a close tomorrow morning with both the men and women diving off the platform. The men will kick-off Wednesdays action with prelims beginning at 11:30 a.m. ET, with finals immediately thereafter at 1:15 p.m. ET. The women will follow with their preliminary session slated for 4:30 p.m. ET and finals set to take off at 6:15 p.m. 3T.
It is the last chance for the Gators to earn a ticket to the NCAA Championship meet, and Lewark could potentially vie for a spot after the sophomore finished third at the SEC Championships with a career-high score of 362.65 off the platform.
Live scoring will be available through www.DiveMeets.com.
NCAA Qualifiers from Zone B
Men (Top 2 on platform tomorrow will qualify):
Samual Dorman, Miami
Thomas Neubacher, FSU
Mauricio Robles, Tennessee
John Sateiu, Auburn
Ryan Helms, Tennessee
David MacDonald, North Carolina
Women (Top 3 on Platform tomorrow will qualify)
Vennie Dantin, Auburn

Yet the whiplash still occurs, as the Escobar case illustrates.
Aly, a journalist and historian in Berlin, is no stranger to the whiplash Holocaust genre.
But Romney's whiplash favorability online might be a much bigger problem in the general election.
Much of the action in whiplash requires serious suspension of disbelief.
Maybe, then, the forced slamming of the brakes this fall—and the ensuing Dow Jones-induced whiplash—was a godsend.
Rankin raised his arm and brought the whiplash whistling down upon the broad shoulders.
"When you came through the town you waked me up like a whiplash," he was saying.
Lack of sleep and lack of food supplies were sapping his lanky body of the whiplash swiftness and wiry strength it once possessed.
What was a boy's whiplash, that his resentment of it; should set all his future life in jeopardy?
With the dignity of a queen she passed on and out of sight, leaving him with the sting of a whiplash on his face.
whiplash whip·lash (wĭp'lāsh')
Whiplash injury.

One message candidates heard from voters this election was contempt for partisan gridlock in Congress. One of the biggest obstacles to congressional action is the profusion of filibusters in the Senate.
Now is the time to reform Senate rules to break that legislative logjam.
It's a longstanding tradition for senators to block legislation by merely talking it to death, known as a filibuster. Though by definition a filibuster means literally obstructing Senate procedures by continuous speech by members on the floor, a senator can have the same effect these days by simply threatening to filibuster. That is increasingly common.
The only way to stop a filibuster, according to the Senate's rules, is by a "cloture" vote, which requires the support of three-fifths of the body, or 60 senators. The upshot is a minority of senators can block the will of the majority.
In the past six years alone, 385 cloture motions have been filed in the Senate calling for votes to end filibusters. That is more than all of such motions filed in the 70-year period after the cloture-vote rule was created, according to a report by the Brennan Center for Justice. This has become so common that it is assumed a 60 percent supermajority is required for all votes.
That was not the intent of the framers, however. The Constitution requires a supermajority vote for a limited number of issues, which means only a majority is necessary on all others.
Still, the filibuster is deeply rooted in Senate tradition. The Senate cherishes the right of any senator to be fully heard. Thus, the rules say no senator "shall interrupt another senator in debate without his consent." In other words, one senator can hold the floor as long as he or she has the capacity to speak.
Originally one had to actually talk continuously to prevent a bill coming to a vote, which Southerners did to great effect to block civil rights laws in the 1950s. Indeed, the late Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina still holds the record for talking 24 hours and 18 minutes in August 1957. The previous record holder was Louisiana Sen. Huey Long who would read aloud recipes, instructions on how to fry oysters and the occasional "rambling discourse on the subject of 'potlikker'," according to one account.
The Senate has sought to curb the filibuster before. In 1917, the rules were changed to provide for a way to end a filibuster if two-thirds of the body is in favor, or 67 votes. The threshold was lowered to three-fifths, 60 votes, in 1975.
Some argue that changing the rules would destroy the Senate, but the party making that case is usually in the minority and is using the filibuster to frustrate the majority. Both parties are guilty of abusing the rules to make it next to impossible for the Senate to perform its duty, which is to act on legislation. Both parties should agree on a compromise to reform the filibuster.
The Senate should agree on a rule change that recognizes the Senate's respect for hearing the views of the minority and to preserve the Senate's role in slowing reckless proposals from the House for more thoughtful consideration.
But it should not preserve the status quo, which means that nothing gets done in the Senate, and by extension nothing gets done in Congress. That is neither the intent of the Constitution or of the American people.

Girl Scout Kerensa Loadholt sorts through clothing items that her troop plans to donate to local shelters. / Staff Photo/Deborah M. Marko
One of the items left behind in the Rossi Intermediate School lost and found was a San Fransisco 49ers sweat shirt. / Staff Photo/Deborah M. Marko
How to helpAnyone interested in donating gently used clothing to the Girl Scouts clothing drive should call (856) 899-9880.
VINELAND — The four-wheeled blue bin tucked in the Rossi Intermediate School cafeteria corner is filled with things lost.
Local Girl Scouts found it an opportunity.
When the discarded pile of fleece and denim started to spill beyond the bin, Principal Tammy Monahan tried to reunite items with their owners.
In the school newsletter and an automated call to students homes, Monahan gave a Friday deadline to claim the castaway clothing.
Instead of discarding the items, the school donated the bin contents to local Girl Scouts. They plan to deliver the items to South Jersey shelters, which had their inventories wiped out after Hurricane Sandy, said Girl Scout Kerensa Loadholt.
Among the six-bag haul were jeans, hoodies and one fairly new San Francisco 49ers sweatshirt.
This was probably from today, joked Monahan, acknowledging the teams defeat in Sundays Super Bowl.
Folding the items, Kerensa acknowledged she lost gym pants while she was attending Rossi.
And one day, Monahan said, she was walking by the bin and spotted her sons bag.
Its easier to lose things than people think.
Her son, Mario Conde, explained that in the locker room he grabbed his backpack and he totally forgot about his gym bag.
Items also get left behind in the cafeteria, Kerensa said, because students put their bags under the table and leave without them.
Kerensa, a Rossi graduate, is now a Vineland High School sophomore.
Her troop is working toward a Gold Award from the Girl Scout Council of Central and Southern New Jersey. They will be judged on their community service, the lasting effect of their community outreach and the long-term viability of their project.
Theres a lesson in it as well, said Mary Loadholt, Kerensas mom and leader of Troop 54611.
The clothing delivery will be scheduled after the Girl Scout cookie sale is completed on Feb. 24.
This will be the troops third visit to a shelter to deliver food or clothing, she said. Its a gentle reminder not to take things for granted and appreciate what you have.

but this Little Black Skirt is not a part of that. This is a sorta urgent extra! aiyiyi...
My daughter has completed her undergraduate degree and successfully secured her first "real" job. She will be returning to uni next year to do her Masters, but will probably continue to work concurrently in the firm she has just joined...
So, just prior to her interview we attended to a detail of paramount importance: her wardrobe.
For the past few years she's been a university student, with an appropriately fun and funky colourful casual wardrobe and lots of crazy shoes... hmmm. We assessed everything and came up with one or two smart and stylish little separates that she can wear in the office, but identified a few holes that I will have the pleasure of addressing over the next few weeks... the biggest of which is the ubiquitous LBS.
So I made one for her. It may not look very earth shattering, but I wanted this skirt to be a long-term goodie, a wardrobe builder; a simple, streamlined and smart basic, high quality enough to last for years and years; and also sturdy and practical enough to cope with being tossed in the washing machine.
I used Vogue 8363, and a very nice quality washable wool-mix suiting fabric from Fabulous Fabrics. The skirt is fully lined with black polyacetate lining fabric, also from Fabulous Fabrics, and I juggled the various views of the pattern to give the skirt a one piece darted front, to have those satisfyingly deep, slanted hip pockets, and to have a central back invisible zip opening. I shortened the skirt to hit at a very workable just-above-knee-length. This is both mine and Cassie's favourite skirt length; suitable for both summer and winter wear.
An easier-to-see view of the pockets can be seen on another version of this pattern I made previously; here.
The hem is finished with a black bias-cut cotton strip.
I adjusted the lining pieces to incorporate an extra few inches of width at the widest part of the hips: since in my experience this is the first part of a pencil skirt to show strain, particularly in a skirt that one is seated in for long periods of time. The darts in the lining are not stitched, but simply folded in position and stitched along the top, for that little bit of extra wearing ease.
Cassie made her charcoal jersey jacket herself, and blogged about it on her own blog here.
I'm actually rather excited about helping to add to Cassie's working girl apparel! what to make next, what to make next? but any new pieces may have to wait until the seasonal mayhem has subsided..... ;)

With the highly touted "Race: Are we so different?" exhibit soon to open at the Rochester Museum & Science Center, now is an opportune time to begin taking a close look at racial issues in this community.
Over the next year, the Editorial Board will do just that in an an attempt to help make the Rochester region, made up of diverse racial and ethnic groups, stronger as a community. Expect us to use every resource available; editorials, essays, social media and public forums to examine the problems associated with race and, more important, propose viable solutions.
We will look to leaders such as Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and Rep. Louise Slaughter, who each vowed to the Editorial Board last fall that they'd aggressively address economic inequities if re-elected.
Look for insightful commentary from the Editorial Board, our advisers and readers. In the past, unfortunately, too often well-meaning efforts like ours only managed to scratch the surface. For one thing, participation wasn't inclusive enough of all involved. Whatever your racial/ethnic/economic background, we want to hear from you. But don't just vent. Help others understand why you feel the way you do and offer solutions.
No question, the path that we're about to embark on is comparable to a minefield. But we must not be afraid to begin the journey. More than a decade into the 21st century, as a community we're no closer to resolving many of the problems linked to race that were brought along into this millennium.
With heavy dosages of civility and candor, let's move forward - together.

Don't Bank on QE3
- Commentary
- By Alen Mattich
With the Federal Reserve's latest quantitative-easing program ending this month, but the U.S. economy running into another soft patch, if not worse, speculation has turned towards the possibility of another round of monetary stimulus. QE3 in other words.
But as keen as the Fed has been to provide a monetary safety net for the U.S., there are at least two good reasons to believe its willingness and ability to launch yet more stimulus is seriously weakened. There's the building anti-Fed crusade in Congress. And the Fed's own concerns about the risks to the economy posed by yet more easing.
Of the two, the second is more interesting.
The Fed's primary justification for the first round of QE was to prevent deflation in a world of zero interest rates. QE2 was then provided last year to secure the nascent recovery. In both cases, the intention was to minimize economic volatility and ensure price stability.

However, the side-effects of higher interest rates will eventually take their toll. And, if the ECB raises rates too far, too fast, they could yet spell the end of the single currency.
At the moment, the euro is rising for two reasons.
As recent global tensions subside and investor appetite for risk returns, the prospects of higher interests in the euro zone is making the euro attractive. The ECB will be the first of the West's major central banks to start tightening policy, leaving the U.S. Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England all trailing far behind.

The Day After November 2
What will it bring?
2:14 PM, Aug 3, 2010 • By MATTHEW CONTINETTI
In July 1994, Michael Barone raised the possibility that the Republicans might capture the House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years. Sixteen years later, Barone is revisiting his methodology and seeing what it may portend for November 2, 2010. As you probably already know, things do not look good for the Democrats.
In July 1994, Barone noticed that five incumbent House Democrats were behind Republican challengers. (All five lost.) In July 2010, NRO blogger Jim Geraghty noticed that at least 13 House Democrats are running behind Republican challengers. And according to polling I saw today, some other Republican challengers -- including Bobby Schilling, who is challenging incumbent Phil Hare in Illinois 17 -- may be closing in. The Hotline reports that 24 incumbent House Democrats commissioned polls in the last quarter but did not release them. Why? Most likely, because the polls were terrible.
During campaign 1994, Republicans led in the congressional generic ballot. But, on Election Day, their margin of victory in the national House vote turned out to be several points higher than what the polling suggested. During campaign 2010, Republicans have been leading the congressional generic ballot by a historically significant margin that foreshadows major gains in November. Will they once again outperform that lead on Election Day?
Barone, moreover, points to a natural GOP advantage in the House. Obama's approval rating continues to sink. Democrats are demoralized. Conservatives and Republicans are wildly enthusiastic. Here's RCP's Sean Trende:
Predictably, conservatives and Republicans have concluded that the coming storm will reflect the public's rejection of Obama, of big government liberalism, and of the Democratic party. And surely they are right -- to a point. Liberals and Democrats, meanwhile, by placing blame entirely on the economy, have preemptively insulated themselves from the charge that they got Obama into this mess. And they too are probably right -- to a point.
So, a mix of bad policy and bad economics is likely to sweep dozens of Republicans into federal office come November 2. But have conservatives and Republicans given serious thought to what they are going to do the day after November 2? And are conservatives and Republicans ready to accept responsibility for an economy and society that are only beginning to work their way out of a massive credit crisis?
De-funding Obamacare is worth a shot because Obamacare is bad policy. But de-funding may not work. And once that question is decided either way, the public will expect a Republican Congress to do something - anything - related to unemployment.

Postseason hopes dashed in loss to Lady Griz
It was a tall task for the Eastern Washington University women's tennis team, which had to win both matches on the road this weekend against Montana and Montana State in order to have a shot at the postseason. But the Eagles went in hopeful. Unfortunately, luck was not on their side this Friday the 13th, as the Eagles fell to Montana, 6-1, at The Peak Racquet Club in Missoula, Mont.
With the loss, EWU falls to 4-14 on the year and 2-5 in Big Sky Conference action, while the Lady Griz improve to 12-7 overall and 5-2 in league play. Although now out of postseason contention, Eastern will have one more opportunity to end the season on a high note when it plays at Montana State on Saturday (April 14) at 9 a.m. Pacific time.
Freshman Chrissy Uriarte was responsible for Eastern's one point on the day, as she celebrated a big win at No. 3 singles against UM's Ashley Mackey. Uriarte took the first set in a tiebreaker, 7-6 (7-4) and then went on to win the second, 6-3. The rookie out of Las Vegas, Nev., has won seven matches this season, including three in conference.
Freshman Moira Hedberg was able to take a few games off Montana's Heather Davidson, but ended up falling 6-3, 6-3. Hedberg still boasts a winning record in Big Sky play at 4-3, and is now 9-9 overall in the 2011-12 campaign.
Juniors Chelsea Patton, Kelsey Knight, Ryann Warner and Rocio Norena all lost in straight sets to the Lady Griz at Nos. 2, 4, 5 and 6, respectively.
In doubles action, Patton and Knight played a competitive match at No. 3 against UM's Precious Gbadamosi and Lauren Gibson, but couldn't quite get it done, as Montana prevailed, 8-5.

Conners is a defender who graduated from Great Falls (Mont.) High School in 2004 and was a transfer from Walla Walla Community College. She has played in a total of 36 games for the Eagles and has four shots.

Eastern has had three previous players earn this award since 2002. In 2005, Eastern had Jennie Summers named to the second team, and Beth Russell was named to the third team.
Summers was a senior from Spokane, Wash., who had a 3.78 GPA cumulative in nursing, and Russell was a senior from Olympia, Wash., with a 3.80 GPA, also in nursing. In 2002, senior Sarah Meyer from Moscow, Idaho, had a 3.95 GPA in English. She was a transfer from North Idaho College.

Five Guys Burgers and Fries plans Issaquah restaurant
March 8, 2011
By Staff
Five Guys Burgers and Fries is planning to open in the Issaquah Commons.
Operators applied for a business license from the city Feb. 16, and a sign announcing the restaurant appeared in a vacant storefront at the commons at about the same time. The opening date has not been announced, and a Five Guys spokeswoman could not be reached for comment.
The restaurant features a no-frills menu — think burgers, fries and hot dogs.
The market research firm Chain Store Guide ranked Five Guys at No. 3 last year among the 50 fastest-growing restaurant chains in the United States and Canada. Five Guys boasts more than 500 outlets nationwide.
The closest Five Guys restaurant to Issaquah is in The Landing in Renton, and another is planned to open soon at Overlake Fashion Plaza in Bellevue.
Five Guys is the latest national or regional chain to set up shop in the Issaquah Commons in recent months.
See's Candies opened a shop just before Valentine's Day and Bright Now! Dental settled in last November.

The crash happened just before midnight on Soquel Drive.
A Mazda sedan hit the bicyclist after the cyclist lost control and crashed in the lanes of oncoming traffic, the CHP said.
The rider was transported to a hospital in San Jose, where he died from his injuries.

This week Axl Rose tried to throw a wrench into the plans of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to induct him and the classic lineup of Guns N' Roses when he released a statement requesting that he not be inducted into the Rock Hall, saying: "Please know that no one is authorized nor may anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf."
The problem, of course, is that the Rose and Slash, Steven Adler, Duff McKagan, and Izzy Stradlin have been feuding for nearly 20 years. The hope was that Rose would get over all that for a few hours, but instead he rejected induction entirely. The Hall, however, maintains that it will still induct him this weekend.

December seems to be a busy month for everyone, as people prepare for Christmas, Hannukah, Festivus, New Year's and, of course, National Flashlight Day. But if you can find some free time in your busy schedule, there are all kinds of live events you can enjoy before 2012 overtakes us. See below for some great ideas.
Z100 Jingle Ball: This year's annual holiday bash features Lady Gaga, Demi Lovato, David Guetta and several other big names. The megaconcert takes place on December 9.

Guns N' Roses is going on tour! It's a tour that lacks Slash and the rest of the classic lineup, but that hasn't deterred fans from getting tickets. So far, the group is most popular in Florida and Texas. Over 42% of all orders for the tour are for the shows in those two states. While there are two dates in each state, compared to just one show in other locations, the number of orders for each show is still higher than anywhere else.
So what about attendance? Which state can stake a claim as holding the most Guns N' Rose fans? Unsurprisingly, most attendees are residents of the states that are doing the best in orders. For example, over 18% of tour attendees are from Florida and 17% are from Texas, and those are the two states that have the most orders.

Vitiligo Cure Information
Many people know about vitiligo because this disease affected Michael Jackson but most don't realize that vitiligo, or leukoderma, is a skin disease that affects around two percent of the population. Although scientists have been studying this ailment for years, we still haven't been able to eliminate this disease. There are three main links to this disease, a person's lifestyle, their genetics and their home environment.
What vitiligo sufferers experience is a de-coloration, depigmentation, of their skin. This seems to happen in different pockets of parts of their body. This almost makes it appear as if some parts of their skin have been peeled away. In reality, it's the melanin, or part of the skin cells responsible for the production of the color of the skin, that suddenly die. It's this sudden death of the melanin that has experts believing that this is an autoimmune issue.
If vitiligo is an autoimmune disease this intrigues experts. This would mean that there is some imbalance that is causing your immune system to turn on the melanin, attack it and ultimately kill the melanin. It's important to consult with your physician AS SOON as you suspect you have vitiligo. Your doctor can confirm whether you have a temporary skin ailment or vitiligo. It's key that you get this diagnosis because you may have some other health condition that can trigger vitiligo. If you are able to cure this first ailment then that will take care of your vitiligo. Of course, this isn't always the case, only your doctor will know for sure.
If you doctor does diagnose you with vitiligo, what does that mean for you? Vitiligo can last for decades in the affected areas. In many ways vitiligo is like chronic arthritis. Once it flares up you are stuck for awhile. However, that shouldn't mean that you just throw up your hands and live with the embarrassment. In fact, the first thing your doctor will recommend is UV therapy. UV therapy will help encourage the color to come back in the affected areas by re-pigmenting the skin. In addition to this initial treatment, you can make adjustments in your lifestyle that can help you get control of this disease.
Did you know that your diet can have a huge bearing on the aggressiveness of vitiligo? Most people don't realize this. In fact, by modifying or eliminating certain aspects of your lifestyle you can curtail or even eliminate the symptoms of vitiligo. The biggest factor is one's diet. Researchers have discovered that there is a link between vitiligo and a person's diet. Researchers have further determined that the link is common allergies.
When most people think about allergies they think about pet allergies. However, what most people suffer from, whether they realize it or not, is food allergies. In fact, you may be ingesting foods right now that you are allergic to and not even know it. Normally this isn't a big deal however; those foods may be triggering an allergen which, in turn, triggers vitiligo. You will need to consult a naturopath to find out if or what allergies you have. If you can eliminate these foods from your diet you may be able to eliminate the effects of the vitiligo.
This is by no means an exhaustive study on vitiligo. You will find many more articles on this website that go into greater detail. In addition, check out our partner Natural Vitiligo Treatment System. They are experts in how your diet and other things can regulate, stop and even cure vitiligo.

The concept of "paying it forward" is more than just a goal to which Cindee M. Cox aspires.
It's also the point of the Muncie woman's book, "Grace's Magic," not to mention the crux of her daily inspiration and a loving paean to the woman who gave her life.
"It's a story about the importance of it," Cox said Wednesday, seated on a couch in the lounge at Morrison Woods Health Campus, where she works as the customer services representative. "The story was written to honor all birth mothers." ...

The newly released update also gives users the ability to make and receive FaceTime audio calls. This functionality was previously limited to iOS devices.
With OS X 10.9.2, users also gain the ability to use call waiting when using FaceTime audio and video. Users on iMessages can also block incoming messages from individual senders.
As for the "goto fail" SSL bug, AppleInsider was first to report on Monday that Apple was providing its internal employees with a prerelease build that addresses the flaw. Such measures signal that the public release of a new OS X build is imminent.
The SSL security issue was also addressed in iOS 7.0.6, an update for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch that was delivered late last week.
Additional features in the latest version of Mavericks, now available through Software Update on the OS X App Store, include:
- Adds the ability to block incoming iMessages from individual senders

A huge part of the reason the Pasok Government is losing credibility is explained in the last few sentences of the article. Until somebody influential that has somehow escaped the tax system is seen as paying up big time (and not paltry penalty charges so far utilized), and Mr. Papandreou insists on inflicting new taxes on everyone, the sense of unjustified collective punsihement just grows and grows. Ask the Den Plirono (I won't pay) movement.
