I became a programmer just a few years ago, and my agenda has always been to eventually make indie games and use them for missions work. At this time though, I generally work on jail and prison sotware, using predominantly ActionScript 3.0 and Visual Basic .NET. Generally I work with video chat and monitoring software, often including a logistical interface for operators at the facilities. I hope to eventually use the valuable experience from my current job as a springboard for my long-term goals as a programmer and a Christian.

Licensing of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs)
All HMOs in the borough are now required to be licensed, unless the HMO falls within certain exempted categories
Apply for a licence
Before you apply, check what kind of property licence is required.
There are two types of property licences that are applicable to HMOs, a 'Mandatory' HMO licence and a Private Rented Property Licence (PRPL).
The application process and fee structure is different for mandatory and PRPL HMO licence applications, so you should ensure that know which type of licence is required and that the appropriate application is submitted.
Further guidance is provided below, but you can also contact the Council's Housing Standards team on 020 8496 2227 or via email at firstname.lastname@example.com if further clarification is required prior to making your application
Mandatory HMO licence
If your HMO has three storeys or more, and is occupied by least five occupiers forming two or more households, you may require a licence from us.
- 'Storeys' means the number of floors within the HMO but also includes lower storeys that are used for non-residential purposes [such as a shop]. So a two-storey HMO above a shop would be regarded as a three-storey HMO.
- 'Occupiers' – includes all persons in the HMO, both adults and any children residing at the address
- 'Households' - A household can be a family, a couple (including same sex couples) or a single person but all unrelated adults that are not a couple, or part of a family, are treated as separate households. A group of more than two students sharing an address would be considered to be living in an HMO even if they had all signed a joint tenancy
Private Rented Property Licensing for non-mandatory HMOs
If your HMO is privately rented but falls outside the scope of mandatory HMO licensing, you may still require a licence from us. This would include, for example, HMOs that are less than three stories in height or HMOs with less than 5 residents.
If your HMO falls in this category, you need to go to the Private Rented Property Licence page and follow the instructions to apply.
Planning permission
HMOs should have a permission that is appropriate to this use. An Article 4 Direction is in place in Waltham Forest, which means that any HMO of three to six persons established after 16 September 2014 [C4 Use Class] will need appropriate planning consent.
The operation of the Article 4 Direction does not affect the longstanding need for larger HMOs accommodating 7 or more persons to have appropriate planning authorisation; this requirement has been in place for many years.
It may be the case that a property owner will be able to demonstrate that a premises has established use as an HMO such that further planning consent is not required.
The Council will take into account the planning status of an HMO as part of the licence application process. Any unauthorised use is likely to be reflected in the decision to grant or refuse the licence or to issue the licence for a shorter period than the usual five year period
Eligibility criteria
- Applications must be made to Waltham Forest Council
- You must be a fit and proper person to hold the licence
The Housing Act 2004 requires landlords of certain types of houses of multiple occupation (HMOs) to be licensed by the Local Authority – these are covered by Mandatory HMO licensing.
For more information on mandatory HMO licensing and to identify whether you have a property that needs licensing visit: www.communities.gov.uk/publications/housing/licensinghouses.
See a summary of the regulation relating to this licence on the Communities and Local Government website, by clicking on the link: http://www.communities.gov.uk/documents/housing/pdf/1446472.pdf.
Application process
Please provide all the information requested or we will be unable to accept and process your application and it will be rejected.
Licences will be granted if:
- The house is or can be made suitable for multiple occupation
- The applicant is a fit and proper person and the most appropriate person to hold the licence
- The proposed manager has control of the house, and is a fit and proper person to be the manager
- The management arrangements are satisfactory
We will aim to grant or refuse the licence within 12 weeks.
How the licensing process works
- On receipt of your application, we will send an acknowledgement letter
- The property is inspected by a Council Officer. The officer will determine if any improvement works are necessary, which might include the provision of additional amenities such as bathrooms or kitchens, and how many people should occupy the HMO
- In determining a licence application, the Council will review any available information relating to the proposed licence holder, and any separate manager, against its 'fit and proper' criteria
- Prior to issuing its decision, the Council will issue its proposal to grant or refuse the licence., Documentation, which will include details of any works required and permitted numbers who will be allowed to occupy the HMO will be sent to the applicant and all interested parties such as. Mortgagees. They are given two weeks to make any representations. In relation to any improvement works identified, a compliance period is given
- A decision to grant or refuse the licence is made, taking into account any representations received. The formal notification is sent out to the applicant and all interested persons
- If granted, the licence is usually issued for a five year period but a shorter licence may be granted if there are concerns relating to the management of the HMO, or about the physical condition of the premises. For such premises, a one year licence would normally be issued.
- Once a licence has been issued, the property will be inspected periodically to check if any works requested at the approval stage have been carried out and to check that good management standards are being maintained
- We may, from time to time, ask for the latest periodic gas or electric safety certificates and other relevant documents
- The Council is required to compile and maintain a Public Register of licensed HMOs, which is available on our website
Will tacit consent apply?
No. It is in the public interest that Waltham Forest Council must process your application before it can be granted. If you have not heard from us within ten working days contact us online if you applied through the UK welcome business website or use the contact details below:
Email email@example.com or call 020 8496 2227
The fee is £930 per HMO up to 6 units of accommodation. For every unit above this, the cost will be £88 per unit. For re-application (a renewal) the fee is £930.

Though guidelines suggest screening starts at 50, researcher says it's premature to change them
by Bartlett-Jones on Thu Nov 15, 2012 04:41 PM
My SO was diagnosed Tuesday with stage IV--primary tumor is in the larnyx (voice box) with spread to the lymph nodes. The surgeon who diagnosed him said he would need chemo and radiation. He referred him to an oncologist who can't see him until next Tuesday. The office staff was annoyed when we called back for another referral to a doc who could get him in quicker. SHe said that the surgeon was aware that he wouldn't be seeing the oncologist until next week.
Will 7 days, now 5, make a difference?
Thanks and well wishes to all.

Thanks mrsgoose. I wish you and your husband the best. I hope he proves them wrong. Thankfully a lot of people do.
by Ladylacy on Thu Nov 15, 2012 06:12 PM
When my husband was diagnosed with laryngeal cancer, after all the testing, radiation and chemo started almost 6 weeks later. He underwent 35 radiation and 2 chemo treatments from August to October 2010. Then in February 2011, he had to have a trach and they did another biopsy. In late March 2011 he had a complete laryngectomy, neck dissection and throat reconstruction. The PET scan in later November showed no signs of cancer. Our specialist said that it was hiding behind the swelling. We were also told that most have radiation and chemo first and after researching this, we found out it was true. It all depends on if it has spread and how large the tumor is.
He was lucky. There was no spread to lymph nodes but the tumor was large. It generally takes several weeks for testing, biopsy, etc. before treatment is started. Be sure you have someone who has dealt with this type of cancer. Same goes for the surgery. You need someone that has done this surgery and knows what they are doing. We were lucky because our local ENT referred us to Emory Winship Cancer Center because he didn't do the surgery. Said we needed someone who specializes in this surgery because there could be more needed to be done, which in my husband's case turned out to be true.
Wishing the best -- Sharon

When I first started this journey with my bot tumour which was a T4 tumour with N2 involvement (two lymph nodes), I was an emergency case and had a trachea placed immediately. It took some weeks before I actually started treatment and as soon as I started chemo I noticed an improvement in my pain levels. My tumour grew while I was in hospital but it took as long as it did and because I was quite ill at the time I didn't even question the amount of time it was taking to get treatment started. ANyway, guess I am just trying to say that it did take a bit for mine to get started but once they did it was effective. I wish you and your SO all the very best.

With its name denoting newness and originality, Novitá has managed to stay fresh and vibrant since opening in 1994. This chic Gramercy Park eatery specializes in updated versions of classic dishes from Italy's Piedmont region, supplemented with pastas inspired by the country's South. The dining room is modern and romantic without being precious. Its Venetian stucco walls are painted a saffron hue, while sconces bearing oversized tassles cast a soothing glow. The clientele varies from young professionals during lunch to silver-haired neighbors at dinner. On weekends, suburban sojourners from New Jersey and Long Island make the pilgrimage, and chef-partner Marco Fregonese does not disappoint. His gnocchi are feather-light puffs surrounded by a delicate tomato sauce then topped with grated, aged ricotta cheese and a fragrant julienne of basil. Mains are likewise flavorful and sophisticated. The pan-roasted sea bass, flaky and moist, rests beneath an earthy fricassee of artichoke hearts. Tender baby carrots and asparagus spears undergird the assemblage. While hardly revolutionary, Novitá's formula of celebrating fine ingredients with creative recipes and straightforward cooking techniques keeps this restaurant relevant and, yes, even novel.Note

AJ Allmendinger#47 ChevroletJTG Daugherty Racing
Allmendinger's team starts fast, has extra motivation at Rolex 24
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Just before AJ Allmendinger 's first driving stint in Saturday's Rolex 24 at Daytona, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series veteran admitted a win in the Michael Shank Racing Honda would be as popular and sentimental as they come. And it was his No. 60 Honda that was out front six hours into the twice-around-the-clock event at Daytona International Speedway . While Allmendinger awaited his driving time Saturday evening, he spoke about the extra motivation for his team -- honoring former driver Justin Wilson, who was killed competing in an IndyCar race last season. Wilson co-drove with Allmendinger in this race five times, including 2012 when the dark horse Michael Shank team won the 50th running of the Rolex. Allmendinger and Wilson were close friends. "When it comes to the competition side of it, everyone's pumped up," Allmendinger said before climbing into the car. "The series gave Honda a little more motor and they did their homework, it's really fast. What's different is Justin not being here." That was a meaningful and moving theme for Allmendinger , especially this weekend at a place he would normally be spending good times with his dear friend. "We're all pushing hard because we want to win it for Justin and in his memory," Allmendinger said. "I was doing OK until this morning when Mike Shank put up a picture on Twitter. "I knew it would be different, I knew it would be tough. But for me this is the race I always saw (Wilson) at. "No matter if we were racing together ... it was great to see his smiling face. It's difficult now, but it gives us a little more reason to go out there and try to get it." Of the other three NASCAR drivers entered in the Rolex -- Nationwide Series regular Brendan Gaughan and defending Rolex champions Jamie McMurray and Kyle Larson -- only McMurray had turned in any time behind the wheel. His Chip Ganassi Ford prototype was fourth overall even following a spin and a collision with a GTLM class Corvette on a restart. "It's so hard on those restarts to predict how hard you can push," McMurray said after climbing out of the Ganassi car. "Our car is better than I expected so we just have to get through the night."
AJ Allmendinger powers to pole at Watkins Glen
RELATED: See Sunday's full lineup WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. -- AJ Allmendinger would like nothing better than a good, strong case of déjà vu. "Hopefully, we're reliving last year," Allmendinger said after putting his No. 47 JTG Daugherty Chevrolet on the pole for Sunday's Cheez-It 355 at The Glen (2 p.m. ET, NBCSN, MRN, SiriusXM). Last year the road-course ace barged into the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup by winning at Watkins Glen from the sixth starting position. On Saturday at the 2.45-mile road course, Allmendinger posted the only sub-69-second lap (1:08.993) to win the pole at 127.839 mph, edging Martin Truex Jr . (127.569 mph) for the top starting spot in the 22nd NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race of the season. Tony Stewart (127.481 mph) qualified third, followed by Stewart-Haas Racing teammate Kevin Harvick (127.416 mph) and four-time Watkins Glen winner Jeff Gordon (127.181 mph), who is making his final start at the New York road course as a full-time Sprint Cup driver. The Coors Light Pole Award was the fourth of Allmendinger's career, his first at Watkins Glen and his second of the season -- and it marked a dramatic turnaround from a disappointing final practice on Friday afternoon, when Allmendinger was 28th on the speed chart. "I didn't do a good job (on Friday)," Allmendinger said. "They saved me. They gave me a good race car… I don't know if I'll sleep any better tonight, but I'll be ready for tomorrow." As he tries for a repeat performance, Allmendinger will have a familiar chassis under him. "It's the same car we ran last year, the same car we ran at Sonoma," said Allmendinger , who also won the pole for the West Coast road course race in June. "But they put a lot more work into it over the winter to make sure it was lighter, we got the right tools that we needed into the car to make it faster." Clearly, there's pressure on Allmendinger to qualify for the Chase, but most of it is self-generated. "There isn't any more pressure than I put on myself," he said. "These guys (his team) deserve it. I want to lift them on my shoulders and carry them to Victory Lane. Last year was special and it just makes you want to do it more and more. "But the outside, there ain't nothing there (in terms of pressure). It's all inside here that I put the pressure on myself, and I'm going to go try to make it happen. These guys deserve it." Kyle Larson , Dale Earnhardt Jr ., Kyle Busch , Jimmie Johnson and Austin Dillon will start from positions six through 10 on the grid.
Season preview: AJ Allmendinger
Fresh off season with first Sprint Cup win, 'Dinger looking for more MORE: Full schedule of season previews Team: JTG Daugherty Racing No. 47 Chevrolet Rank in final 2014 standings: 13th Wins: 1 ( Watkins Glen International ) Year in photos: AJ Allmendinger 2014 highlights Strides: Allmendinger is coming off a career season, collecting his first ever NASCAR Sprint Cup Series win in a hard-fought final lap duel with Marcos Ambrose on the Watkins Glen, New York road course. The victory was also the first for his single-car JTG Daughtery team, landing the organization in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup for the first time. A new technical alliance with Richard Childress Racing and Chevy engines from Earnhardt Childress (ECR) seemed to have paid off for the team. Allmendinger's two top-five finishes equals a career best and his five top-10 efforts were the most for him since 2011. Setbacks: While the team will look back fondly on 2014 as a year of progress, Allmendinger realizes that expectations rise with success. Consistency proved to be a real problem as he missed advancing to the Contender Round of the new elimination-style Chase format, alternating sub-20th place finishes with a respectful 13th-place run at Loudon in the opening three-race round. He had consecutive runs of sixth place (Richmond) and fifth place (Talladega) in the spring but didn't manage another top-10 finish until his victory at Watkins Glen, which came 12 races later. Quoteworthy: "I feel like the person I am, I love that underdog role, I love that small team feeling that we have to work harder than everyone just to compete with them," Allmendinger said. What's next: Allmendinger has always maintained the attitude that his small team has to take baby steps as it raises its game to compete with the perennial Chase contenders, mega-teams such as Hendrick Motorsports , Stewart-Haas Racing and Joe Gibbs Racing . However, scoring the win at Watkins Glen and a berth in the Chase was a huge confidence boost. Consistency and more top-15 finishes are realistic goals for the team this year and with Allmendinger's proven record on road courses, a second Chase berth is a reasonable expectation as well. "We have a long ways to go but we know if we go out there and we hit our best, on any given day we can win a race," Allmendinger said. "With the new [Chase] format especially, Ryan Newman showed you don't have to be great, just good enough to make it to the next (round) and heck, he was two laps away from winning the championship this year."

NASCAR Illustrated: Up Front with AJ Allmendinger
Driver talks past, future in interview RELATED: Subscribe to NASCAR Illustrated AJ Allmendinger has seen his share of adversity during nearly a decade in NASCAR. Two years ago, he hit the lowest point in his career after a failed drug test led him out of Team Penske and into NASCAR's Road to Recovery program. Chastened, the 32-year-old driver kick-started the second chapter of his career by winning two Nationwide races last year for Roger Penske. Allmendinger is now back in the Cup Series trying to push JTG Daugherty's program and his career to the next level. We caught up with Allmendinger a day after the No. 47 was swept up in an early wreck at Daytona. Just two weeks earlier, he'd led a race-high 34 laps at Sonoma before contact with Dale Earnhardt Jr . derailed his shot at for a first Cup victory and the Chase berth that would've come with it. NI: You're known as a strong road racer but what are your thoughts on plate racing? Allmendinger : Out of all the racing we do, it's my least favorite. There's just so much that goes into it. A lot of it's luck, being in the right place at the right time and missing the "big one." The racing can be exciting at times for sure. As a driver, you definitely have to be at full concentration the whole time you're out there when you're in the pack just because one 2-inch mistake can be a big, big crash. Especially if you're the one making that mistake, you feel bad because you wrecked yourself and you've got a lot of competitors that you feel bad about because they're probably pissed off at you. NI: You had a car that could have won at Sonoma before you were taken out. Does it take long to get over that? Allmendinger : I don't know if you ever fully get over it. To a certain degree, in this sport, you gotta be ready to go the next weekend. You can't let a bad weekend carry over into the next weekend. It's tough because I thought we had a shot to win. We were up front, top two cars every practice session and qualifying, led the most laps, played the strategy to what ours was and we just got into an incident. It is what it is. You can't fix it. NI: If you can get that first win, you're all but in the Chase. No added pressure there? Allmendinger : Honestly, I look at it two different ways. The Chase would be great for the fact that our sponsors and this race team being such a small team, to be able to promote that we won a race and are in the Chase, that would be fantastic. But when it comes to, "Do we have to make the Chase for it to be a successful season?" No. We're not a championship-winning team right now. There's no doubt about it. We're a small team, we're trying to grow to that at some point and it's going to be a long process to get there and a lot of hard work. I think with the right effort we can actually get there. NI: It might sound like a strange question but are you almost glad things played out the way they did back in 2012? Allmendinger : Except for the mere fact of having to put Roger Penske through that. Other than that, I'm way happier now than I have ever been when it comes to a lot of things. I still put a lot of pressure on myself racing, so I still have those ups and downs, but it's a different kind of pressure now. The ownership just makes this team such a family. I want to take this team to a new level. That's the pressure I put on myself, to put this team on my back and take it to another level. I feel like they deserve it down from ownership and the team because they work so hard. NI: How has your perspective changed in the past couple of years? Allmendinger : It's a different perspective now. It's not the only thing in the world, you know? There are other things that are important and in the grand scheme probably a lot more important than racing. But obviously when you make your life and you put your heart and soul into it, it feels like the most important thing. I wouldn't change anything that I've had to go through for anything except for disappointing Roger Penske. Hopefully, last year, winning the Nationwide races and having a shot to win Indy made up for it. NI: It's our tailgate issue, so I have to ask about your abilities on the grill. Can we call you a grilling master? Allmendinger : No (laughs). We can lie to everybody and tell them I can grill anything up. Only problem is hopefully I won't get called out on it. I really enjoy grilling because it is so healthy to be able to do that and I'm real health conscious when it comes to what I eat. The sponsors we have on our team are great when it comes to all that. So it makes it a lot easier because we're stocked with a lot of great things to eat. I live in an apartment right now so it's hard to grill in the corner without a balcony. My girlfriend is really good at grilling so she's shown me some stuff. Hopefully, in the near future, I can have a house and practice up but right now it'd be a stretch to say grilling master. I'd like to be. Let's put it that way. NI: It's hard to believe you've been in NASCAR for almost a decade now. What's been your personal highlight so far? Allmendinger : The Nationwide wins were something I'll never forget, especially with what led to those. I remember making my first race at Bristol -- it took me four tries to finally make a race -- back in 2007 when there were 50 or 60 cars trying to qualify each weekend. Making our first Daytona 500 in 2009 and almost winning the thing. ( Allmendinger finished third in the No. 44 Richard Petty Motorsports Dodge.) But I think the highlight is still being here really. This sport is tough. It will bring some guys in, especially with the open-wheel side of it, and spit them back out pretty quick. So to have the commitment level and just the do-or-die work ethic trying to stay in when things were bad and things got better and things got bad again, and keep coming back, I feel very fortunate that people believe in me. Whether it's the "King" or the "Captain" or Tad (Geschickter) to give me another shot to jump in this race car and feel like I can get the job done now. More than anything, just being able to still be a part of it through thick and thin is something that's probably the most special. SUBSCRIBE NOW!
Allmendinger mourns friend Justin Wilson: 'We lost one of the greats'
In the painful initial minutes after hearing Monday night's news that his good friend and former teammate Justin Wilson had died of injuries suffered in an IndyCar Series racing accident, NASCAR driver AJ Allmendinger shared his raw and emotional reaction on social media . "Life isn't fair. We lost one of the great ones today.'' Allmendinger said on Twitter. He accompanied his tribute with a wonderfully telling old photo of himself -- at 5-feet, 6-inches -- standing on a racing tire alongside a smiling 6-foot-4 Wilson. It was so appropriate because Wilson, 37, was a person that Allmendinger -- and so many others -- looked up to figuratively, literally, on-track and off. "Justin was such a quiet guy, and the general public probably doesn't know much about him, so I want to let them know he was such an amazing person,'' Allmendinger said. "I want people to know he was a badass race car driver that, I felt, never got the credit he deserved. But the most important thing is as good as he was on the race track, he was so much better off it." "I truly looked up to him,'' Allmendinger added, acknowledging the pun. While the quiet Brit may not be a super familiar personality to many NASCAR fans, there are plenty of stock car connections to Wilson. Sprint Cup drivers Danica Patrick and Allmendinger competed alongside Wilson in Champ Car and later the IndyCar Series, where Wilson was a seven-time winner. RELATED: Drivers mourn the loss of Justin Wilson Cup driver Michael McDowell and former Cup racer Marcos Ambrose teamed with Wilson in Rolex 24 at Daytona sports car races as did former Camping World Truck Series competitor Max Papis , who also raced against Wilson in the open-wheel ranks. Allmendinger shared a seat with Wilson in five Rolex 24 races, and they were teammates as the long-shot small team Michael Shank Racing won the 50th anniversary edition of the Rolex 24. Wilson finished runner-up in Daytona's 24-hour race in 2010 driving for Cup owner Chip Ganassi. Of course, you didn't have to have know Wilson to appreciate the kind of racer and the kind of person he was. That's evident in the racing community with all the supportive social media tributes and well wishes sent by NASCAR drivers past and present many who never even met Wilson. In the hours immediately after Sunday's accident, three-time Cup champ Tony Stewart sent his plane to transport Wilson's younger brother Stefan to be at his brother's side in the hospital. RELATED: Stewart lends support to Wilson's family In many ways, Wilson's racing career -- and the way he went about it -- spoke much more loudly than the reserved Wilson ever needed to. Allmendinger recalls that he and Wilson were rookies together in Champ Car, except that Wilson was four years older than the young Californian at the time and fresh off a season in Formula One. "I was intimidated by him,'' Allmendinger said. "This guy was badass. It messed me up because I was so intimidated by it that all I wanted to do was beat him, because I knew if I beat him I was doing something pretty special." And Allmendinger considers his first major race win (2006 at Portland, Ore.) all the more special because it came after an intense duel with Wilson. "Here he had just finished second place and yet he was the first to come into Victory Lane and hug me,'' Allmendinger said. "It happened to come down to me and him battling for the win. I had just beat him and as I'm getting out of the car, he runs up and hugs me. That's the type of guy he was.'' It's a recurring theme when people speak of Wilson. He was one of those rare and exceptional individuals whom you never heard a harsh word spoken about. He was well respected as a person and a competitor, the latter sometimes under-appreciated. Despite the impressive resume Wilson brought to America, he mostly drove for underfunded, smaller teams. But he succeeded against the odds and always provided the underdog a legitimate shot. His win in 2012 at Texas Motor Speedway came for the small Dale Coyne Racing team. And just a few weeks ago -- in the midst of a part-time ride with Andretti Autosport with little to no testing in the cars -- he finished runner-up to Graham Rahal at Mid-Ohio. It was vintage Wilson. "He was a guy that never got a great opportunity especially late in his career, I always hoped Penske or Ganassi would pick him up,'' Allmendinger reflected Tuesday. "He was one of the best out there. But you know what, he always made the most out of it and never complained about it." I was always struck by what a strong family man he was -- a doting husband, devoted dad to his two girls and a proud big brother to Stefan, a promising young racer in his own right. "Justin was so good and always made me want to be at my best because I respect him so much,'' Allmendinger said. "He always made sure you were happy, you were OK. Always pumped me up. It drove me to be the best I could." And now Allmendinger and so many others in the racing community will honor their friend by doing the same for Wilson's family.
Allmendinger signs extension with JTG Daugherty
The 33-year-old driver to stay with team through 2020 season SHOP: NASCAR gear " RELATED: Allmendinger inks multiyear deal with Kroger KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver AJ Allmendinger has signed a five-year extension to remain with JTG Daugherty Racing , a move that will keep him in the No. 47 Chevrolet through the 2020 season. Allmendinger , 33, competed in nine Sprint Cup races with the team in 2013 before taking over the driving duties fulltime for the '14 season. A victory at Watkins Glen International was his first in the Sprint Cup Series, the first for the organization and secured a berth in last year's Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup . While he and the team failed to advance to past the opening Challenger Round of the Chase, his 13th-place points finish was a career best. The team is co-owned by husband and wife Tad and Jodi Geschickter as well as former NBA star Brad Daugherty. It was recently announced that The Kroger Company had increased its funding for the single-car team, serving as primary sponsor for 17 races this season and 24 in '16. "It goes along with this Kroger deal and a lot of the companies we have," Allmendinger said of his contract extension during a press conference prior to Saturday night's SpongeBob SquarePants 400 at Kansas Speedway (7:30 p.m. ET, FOX Sports 1, MRN, Sirius XM). "… The great thing is we've got a lot of sponsors; the tough thing is trying to remember them all. My suit weighs like 12 pounds now. It's a good problem to have. "With that said, those sponsors are here long-term; Tad and I did a new deal through 2020 which to me was just a no-brainer. Tad and Jodi have been such a big influence on my life outside the race car. Inside the race car it's great to have a job and be here for a long time but what they mean to me outside the car is family, people I consider some of my best friends. Kind of a renewed love of the sport they've given me, just a different outlook. … Tad handed me the contract and I flipped to the back page and signed it and said 'here you go.'" Allmendinger has 237 career starts in the Sprint Cup Series. He is also a two-time winner in the XFINITY Series. "Anybody that knows me they see my passion that I have, I always try to go out there and try to be better," he said. "It pushes me and my life every day. This race team, I really take everything to heart because I know how hard (they) work, what they give us and the effort they put into this race team. And I think sponsors see that too." Allmendinger enters tonight's race at Kansas Speedway 19th in points. He has two top-10 finishes in 10 starts this season. FULL SERIES COVERAGE • Latest news • Standings • Schedule
Allmendinger reflects on win at Watkins Glen one year later
AJ Allmendinger heads back to Watkins Glen International this weekend for his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race as a defending winner. It's a mantle he happily accepts, one that brings back plenty of memories, but one that comes with expectations and a golden opportunity. Allmendinger aims to rely on his road-racing expertise in Sunday's Cheez-it 355 at The Glen (2 p.m. ET, NBCSN, MRN, SiriusXM) on the 2.45-mile circuit, site of his breakthrough triumph in NASCAR's premier series. A victory would help provide a needed salve for the JTG Daugherty Racing driver, who sits 23rd in Sprint Cup points but could clinch a berth in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup playoffs with a regular-season win. RELATED: Allmendinger wins first Cup race "I still believe it every day that we have a great shot to win a race and make the Chase and if I didn't believe it, then I shouldn't be in a race car," Allmendinger said in a release provided by the team. "From there, it's all about being better. Are we a championship-winning team right now? Probably not, but all you have got to do is look at what (2014 series runner-up) Ryan Newman showed last year. All you got to do is get into the Chase and you've got a shot." Allmendinger's likely best chance comes on the twisty turns at Watkins Glen, where his shrewd road course ability makes the No. 47 Chevrolet a pre-race favorite. The proficiency paid off last season, where Allmendinger outran fellow road ace Marcos Ambrose for his first Sprint Cup win. VOTE: Who will at Watkins Glen? But the performance sometimes comes with the double-edged sword of anticipation. It's another element of pre-race preparation that crew chief Brian Burns has tried to manage. "I'm not going to lie, it is a stressful weekend for us because we all have the same expectations," Burns said. "We try not to talk about it and try to block it out so we can stay as calm as we can. We try to keep each other on an even level. We know that if we don't make mistakes and do the simple things right and have the absence of bad luck, we can win." Misfortune derailed JTG Daugherty's hopes in June at Sonoma Raceway, the other road course on the Sprint Cup schedule. Allmendinger claimed the Coors Light Pole Award and ran among the contenders until a fuel-pressure issue forced the No. 47 behind the wall for extensive repairs in the garage. It was the latest setback in a season that thus far has produced just three top-10 finishes in 21 races. "We're doing our best and are trying to get better," Allmendinger said. "To go out there, whether it's battling for 25th or battling for the win, we are trying to get everything we can. This season has definitely not gone the way we've wanted it to go. It started off great and after five races we were top five in points and then we had some motor problems happen and a few incidents where we would be running in the top 10 and have an accident like we did at Bristol and so forth." A rebound could hinge on this weekend's return to Watkins Glen. Allmendinger said he still gets chills watching the race replay, but that he still contemplates what he could have done better over the final laps. Regardless of any internal second-guessing, his stirring 2014 drive cemented Allmendinger's name in the registry of premier-series winners. "Winning a race, no one can take that away from you," Allmendinger said. "You feel like you are king of the world for one day. At that moment, you are the best there is. I just remember on that day it was the best I had ever driven in my life. On that day, I had to man up and say, 'I'm not letting this race get taken away from me.' It's something that no matter whether if I win again or not, it's memories that I will always have."
Allmendinger loses power during Cheez-It 355
RELATED: Gordon has brake problems " Hamlin's hood flies up Polesitter, AJ Allmendinger lost power on his No. 47 JTG Daugherty Racing Chevrolet and was sitting on pit road during the fourth caution in Sunday's race. A frustrated Allmendinger was heard saying on the radio, "I shut it off trying to save fuel. Last time I ever do that ... When I popped the clutch, nothing." Allmendinger's best chance for making the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup is at Watkins Glen, as he is the defending race winner and that win punched his ticket into last year's Chase. After his pit crew worked on his car, Allmendinger finally got power back and re-entered the race one lap down. 'Dinger led 21 laps before the power outage.
Newman: Allmendinger has one coming
Pocono incident angers Richard Childress Racing driver Ryan Newman hinted that payback may be coming to AJ Allmendinger after the JTG Daugherty driver sent Newman's No. 31 Chevrolet into the wall on Lap 139 of Sunday's Axalta "We Paint Winners" 400 at Pocono Raceway . "It's pretty obvious what happened," said Newman, who was running seventh at the time but finished 39th. "The No. 47 ( Allmendinger ) just ran out of talent. He has got one coming now." Allmendinger appeared to get loose in Turn 1, and he tapped Newman's left rear bumper to trigger the incident. "The 47 just dove down in there and took your ass out," Newman was told over the radio. "I'm fully aware of the piece of (expletive)," the driver of the No. 31 replied. Allmendinger took the blame for the incident over his scanner. Then, later as the JTG team was assessing the damage, said "I don't even deserve to be in the car right now." Richard Childress Racing , the team for which Newman drives, has a technical alliance with JTG Daugherty as well.

Product Description
We've all heard at least some version of the story: how, in 1620, the Pilgrims sailed to the New World in search of religious freedom; how, after drawing up the Mayflower Compact, they landed at Plymouth Rock and befriended the local natives, who taught them how to plant corn and whose leader, Massasoit, helped them celebrate the first Thanksgiving. From this inspiring inception came the United States. But the story of the Pilgrims does not end with the first Thanksgiving. When we look at how the Pilgrims and their children maintained more than 50 years of peace with the Wampanoags and how that peace suddenly erupted into one of the deadliest wars ever fought on American soil, the history of Plymouth Colony becomes something altogether new, rich, troubling, and complex. Instead of the story we already know, it becomes the story we need to know.
Traditionally, the Pilgrims have symbolized all that is good about America; more recently, they have been decried as evil Europeans who annihilated the innocent Native Americans. What you will discover as you follow their story is that the real-life Indians and English of the seventeenth century were too smart, too generous, too greedy, too brave---in short, too human---to behave so predictably. Given the unprecedented level of suffering and death during King Philip's War, it is not surprising that both the Indians and the English began to view each other as subhuman and evil. What is surprising is that even in the midst of this hellish conflict, there were Englishmen who believed the Indians were not inherently malevolent and there were Indians who believed the same about the English. These were the ones whose rambunctious and intrinsically rebellious faith in humanity finally brought the war to an end, and they are the heroes of this story.
Here is a fresh and extraordinarily vivid account of one of our most sacred national traditions by an internationally renowned author. From the Mayflower's arduous Atlantic crossing to the eruption of King Philip's War between colonists and natives decades later, Philbrick chronicles this dramatic history that is at once tragic and heroic, and that still resonates with us today.

Publisher's Description
Author Bio
In 1986, Philbrick moved to Nantucket with his wife Melissa and their two children. In 1994, he published his first book about the island's history, Away Off Shore, followed by a study of the Nantucket's native legacy, Abram's Eyes. He was the founding director of Nantucket's Egan Maritime Institute and is still a research fellow at the Nantucket Historical Association.
In 2000, Philbrick published the New York Times bestseller In the Heart of the Sea, which won the National Book Award for nonfiction. The book is the basis of the forthcoming Warner Bros. motion picture "Heart of the Sea," directed by Ron Howard and starring Chris Hemsworth, Cillian Murphy, Brendan Gleeson, Benjamin Walker, Ben Wishaw, and Tom Holland, which is scheduled for release in March, 2015. The book also inspired a 2001 Dateline special on NBC as well as the 2010 two-hour PBS American Experience film "Into the Deep" by Ric Burns.
His next book was Sea of Glory, published in 2003, which won the Theodore and Franklin D. Roosevelt Naval History Prize and the Albion-Monroe Award from the National Maritime Historical Society. The New York Times Bestseller Mayflower was a finalist for both the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in History and the Los Angeles Times Book Award, won the Massachusetts Book Award for nonfiction, and was named one the ten Best Books of 2006 by the New York Times Book Review. Mayflower is currently in development as a limited series on FX.
In 2010, he published the New York Times bestseller The Last Stand, which was named a New York Times Notable book, a 2010 Montana Book Award Honor Book, and a 2011 ALA Notable Book. Philbrick was an on-camera consultant to the two-hour PBS American Experience film "Custer's Last Stand" by Stephen Ives. The book is currently being adapted for a ten-hour, multi-part television series. The audio book for Philbrick's Why Read Moby-Dick? (2011) made the ALA's Listen List in 2012 and was a finalist for the New England Society Book Award.
Philbrick's latest New York Times bestseller, Bunker Hill: A City, a Siege, a Revolution, was published in 2013 and was awarded both the 2013 New England Book Award for Non-Fiction and the 2014 New England Society Book Award. Bunker Hill won the 2014 book award from the Society of Colonial Wars, and has been optioned by Warner Bros. for feature film adaptation with Ben Affleck attached to direct.
Philbrick has also received the Byrne Waterman Award from the Kendall Whaling Museum, the Samuel Eliot Morison Award for distinguished service from the USS Constitution Museum, the Nathaniel Bowditch Award from the American Merchant Marine Museum, the William Bradford Award from the Pilgrim Society, and the Boston History Award from the Bostonian Society. He was named the 2011 Cushing Orator by the American Association of Neurological Surgeons and has an honorary doctorate from the Massachusetts Maritime Academy, where he delivered the commencement address in 2009.
Philbrick's writing has appeared in Vanity Fair, the New York Times Book Review, the Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times, and the Boston Globe. He has appeared on the Today Show, the Morning Show, Dateline, PBS's American Experience, C-SPAN, and NPR. He and his wife still live on Nantucket.

EDITOR'S EDGE: Penn State Can Transcend Scandal With Groundbreaking IP Policy Shift

In the weeks since the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal ripped open the very heart of Happy Valley, it has understandably been difficult for many to find reasons to feel good about Penn State University.
The tragedy involving the 50 counts of child sex abuse with which Sandusky is charged is multifold: always foremost, the alleged victims; betrayal from such a trusted authority; an 84 year-old father figure's tarnished legacy; a divided campus; a lost season; shame.
Still, every day since, students go to class. Professors grade exams. Athletes lift weights. Researchers label test tubes. Administrators chart courses. They try to transcend.
"It's been a tough five or six weeks," admits Penn State Vice President of Research
Henry "Hank" Foley
, who received his graduate degree in University Park in 1982.
Perhaps sadder still is the scandal itself has effectively stifled the one piece of news that could help the entire Penn State community -- including its network of 19 branch campuses across the Commonwealth and its legion of 557,000 alumni in 160 countries -- begin to transcend one of the most troubling sex abuse cases in American history:
Foley revealed to Keystone Edge in a phone interview earlier this week that beginning this fall, Penn State University will no longer mandate ownership of intellectual property associated with industry-funded research. The real value is not in IP ownership, Foley contends, but rather in the contact students and faculty have with real problems in the world.
"We're moving to the position where if a corporation sponsors research with us, they own it. We prefer it," says Foley. "We're looking to get the interactions, the relationships and the ability to work on more pressing problems."
In a May 31 memo to Foley titled
Core Council Recommendations Regarding Research (OVPR)
from then Executive Vice President/Provost and current University President Rodney Erickson, it is clear that IP was becoming a drain on the Office of Vice President of Research, which has a budget of around $46.5 million (excluding a separate budget for the Graduate School).
From the memo, which was posted on an
Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost webpage
and recommended redirection of resources within OVPR:
- "The focus of the office is to help turn faculty ideas into patents and licenses with royalties flowing back to Penn State, while at the same time trying to help faculty monetize their ideas. But the realities never seem to live up to the potential."
- "Entrepreneurial faculty who want to start companies to commercialize Penn State intellectual property (IP) complain of being deterred by too much oversight and busy-work."
- Penn State is among the worst of its peers when it comes to royalties received from patents and licenses, ranking no better than 80th, right behind Eastern Virginia Medical School.
- The Core Council recommends to "explore an entirely new approach that will make Penn State a friendlier environment for industry-sponsored research, knowing that the companies themselves usually bring a considerable amount of their own IP to the projects."
- The Core Council considers negotiating higher facilities and administrative rates for industry research partner contracts
The news is significant in that it is believed Penn State is the first major American university to take such a stance, going against 30 years of established protocol and, some might argue, good fiscal sense. Prior to 1980, universities could not patent results of research. The
Bayh-Dole Act
changed that, and university IP has been a hotly debated topic all along.
"In a sense, Penn State is favoring its academic (mission) over commercial (interests)," says
Michael Carrier
, a lawyer and professor who teaches IP law at
Rutgers School of Law-Camden
Penn State goes a step further than the University of Minnesota, which last week
announced a new approach to IP licensing
that simplifies the process. Penn State's change, which comes after two years of analysis and discussion on campus, was made earlier in the fall, but it was suddenly buried when news of the Sandusky charges surfaced.
Instead of approving a news release announcing the decision last month, Foley was writing a
letter expressing shock and sadness
related to the scandal that was issued to stakeholders of the
Greater Philadelphia Innovation Cluster
, for which Penn State serves as the lead institution and Foley serves as director. Foley says he felt a responsibility to the $122 million regional energy efficiency hub's many corporate, government and foundational partners.
"It was something we felt we needed to do to get the word out, and the response was nothing short of amazing," says Foley. "Not one negative response. There was an enormous amount of understanding.
"It was a surprise and a good feeling."
We Are….Still Smart
Research expenditures have nearly doubled at Penn State in the last decade to $770 million. Industry-funded research makes up about 25 percent of research at Penn State, which ranks fourth in the country in that category. A high-profile example is the school's clean coal technology efforts courtesy of $17.5 million over five years from Chevron. When it comes to science, technology, and engineering, all breeding grounds for innovation,
Penn State is quite strong
. Think national defense and security, plus a whole lot of energy efficiency. Within the life sciences it's personalized medicine. In the material sciences, it's electro-optics. By the school's own estimation, its basic sciences (math, biology) rank seventh in the nation according to
National Research Council
There's also the
Lunar Lion project
, a privately funded challenge project for the Google Lunar X Prize with an end goal of landing a robotic spacecraft on the moon that will involve undergrads and faculty.
It is probably naive to believe merely shifting focus to this immense arsenal of world-changing brain power and innovative spirit will overcome these hard times, if even possible. These achievements and lofty goals, however, certainly provide points of pride and reminders of Penn State's ultimate mission.
Foley says he and Erickson have been on the same page. In July, Foley's office
announced the merger
of Penn State's existing Industrial Research Office and Intellectual Property Office to form the new
Office of Technology Management
. That was the first step, according to the university, in "realizing an aggressive new vision at Penn State for technology development and translation to the market."
A large portion of the new OTM's efforts involve fostering corporate partnership and marketing of Penn State's IP, including "more vigorous licensing." Sans the conditions of Penn State's financial stake in IP ownership, corporations will no doubt be more likely to make a gift like the one worth $9 million in software and content announced in June from leading enterprise architecture service provider Armstrong Process Group to the College of Information Sciences and Technology's Center for Enterprise Architecture – a gift that will enhance the planned Master of Professional Studies in Enterprise Architecture and is part of
For the Future: The Campaign for Penn State Students
, which aims to secure $2 billion in private support by 2014.
While the school's IP policy shift is driven in part by a less than stellar track record, Foley believes there's too much at stake not to make a change. There is a desperate national need for innovation, and universities are best suited for that task. And it could open the door to other larger, long-term opportunities with industry partners.
"If we don't give on this issue, there is a lack of fluidity in transferring technology from the laboratory to the marketplace," Foley says. "We think this (decision) will give a big lift and I think other schools will follow suit."
That could happen considering the heavy cost burden of executing technology transfer on campus, coupled with tighter overall budgets, says
Leonid Kravets
, a patent attorney in Philadelphia who has also worked for the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
"Clearly we're going to see universities shift how they approach IP," says Kravets. "I don't think everyone will be as radical as Penn State, but I could see certain universities going that route."
Foley acknowledges IP ownership has been a boon for other universities – MIT, Cal, Stanford and Texas have seen the most profit -- and that there will likely be controversy concerning Penn State's new position, but that ultimately, it makes sense in State College.
"That's the independence we have and we're asserting our independence," Foley says. "No one would ever accuse me of lacking in assertiveness."
Good thing, because that's a quality that has been sorely lacking in key areas around State College. After all, if more people had been assertive in the years leading up to Sandusky's recent arrests, many tragedies may have been averted.
That may prove to be the ultimate lesson in this sordid tale.
Assertiveness also might be the best path to true innovation, and in the case of Penn State, the best path to transcendence.

Heartbreak and inspiration swarm across screens at IndieFest 2010
Also worth checking out: The Art of the Steal, Philadelphia documentarian Don Argott's absorbing look at the Barnes Collection, a privately-amassed array of post-Impressionist paintings (including 181 Renoirs) worth billions — and the many people and corporate interests that schemed to control it. This film opens theatrically in March, justifiably. Fans of The Class (2008) shouldn't miss West of Pluto, a Quebec-set, semi-improvised peek into the secret lives of teenagers. And surely there are more winners that my jaded ass hasn't managed to see yet. Isn't that always the fun of IndieFest — digging up those sparklers in the rough?

Durable collar

This HD collar looks great on our black cat. I know the bell annoys him some, (just because it warns the birds he's around!) but otherwise has been a great collar. His HD tag is also a great item.
Pros: Looks great, sturdy
Cons: None

Women's Rights National Historical Park was established in 1980, and covers a total of 6.83 acres (27,600 m²) of land in Seneca Falls and nearby Waterloo, New York, USA.
The park consists of four major historical properties including the Wesleyan Methodist Church, which was the site of the Seneca Falls Convention, the first women's rights convention. The Elizabeth Cady Stanton House, and the homes of other early women's rights activists (the M'Clintock House and the Richard Hunt House) are also on display. The park includes a visitor center and an education and cultural center housing the Suffrage Press Printshop.
Votes For Women History Trail[edit]
The Votes For Women History Trail, created as part of the federal Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009, is administered by the Department of the Interior through the Women's Rights National Historical Park. The Trail is an automobile route that links sites throughout upstate New York important to the establishment of women's suffrage.
Sites on the trail include:
- Susan B. Anthony House in Rochester
- Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester
- Antoinette Louisa Brown Blackwell Childhood Home in Henrietta
- M'Clintock House in Waterloo
- The Women's Rights National Historic Park itself

Respond to Review of Cornbread Cafe
by KaylaMarie
Review: I'm not a huge fan. The food is all deep fried and about as unhealthy as possible. The prices are also pretty high. I checked out the prices on their site from when they had the old cart and they have definitely hiked up the cost. This place is decent if you're a vegan and looking for a place you can eat at...but dont expect too much.
Posted by pneuma on Sunday, August 12, 2012
Comfort food = Deep fried/Greasy , and rent on a restaurant vs a cart is probably similar to living in a travel trailer vs a 5 bedroom 3 bathroom house.
Posted by MarkUser on Monday, January 7, 2013
Try the salad if you're concerned with the other items!! These guys make the best salad dressings around, and I hate salad.
Posted by goldenrae2001 on Friday, February 22, 2013
Our focus is on unique vegan diner food using 95% organic ingredients, while buying locally as much as possible. We're sorry you didn't enjoy your meal. Please allow us the opportunity to make it right. We'll buy you lunch. We have many non-fried menu items to choose from, and our daily specials usually do not contain deep fried ingredients. We are also able to create something special for you. We have many guests who cannot eat certain foods, and our chef has accommodated them happily. Among our non-fried items are BBQ Pull-A-Parts, Mac unCheese, Mashed Taters & Country Gravy, Sassy Slaw, Uncle Todd's Greens, Salad, Cornbread, and more. Our Mac unCheese and Country Gravy are made from cashews, and only have a few ingredients in them, so they're actually pretty healthy. As are our slaw, greens, and cornbread (which is whole grain). We will be adding several new menu items in time for our grand opening celebration on August 13. These items include a Chickenless Salad Sandwich, French Dip, Biscuits & Gravy, and more. Again, we're sorry that you didn't enjoy your visit. We pride ourselves in serving up great food and giving great service. Our prices reflect larger portions than offered at our food cart, as well as much higher overhead.

From you, the host's point of view, you will need to be able to provide a welcoming environment and some volunteer tasks (of around 5 hours a day) and also accommodation and food for your visitors.
In exchange you can expect to receive volunteering for around 5 hours per day, 5 days a week. This can be anything which is within reach of a willing visitor.
Some typical examples of exchanges have been; house painting, weeding, tree planting, baby sitting, doing the school run, cooking, shopping, general maintenance, fencing, language tuition etc.
Remember travellers come for a different experience to that which they are used to in their own country. Many are students on a year out, but some are skilled professionals on a break and others come simply to practice a language. This means that they should be made to feel part of the family. Hosts should interact with visitors as much as they can. Workaway.info is NOT set up to provide cheap labour. It is a cultural exchange in which both parties should benefit.
When you register as a host, working travellers, students and language learners who have shown interest in the areas that you have specified are able to contact you through the website. It is then up to the Workawayer to contact you and entirely up to you whether you decide to offer some kind of exchange or not. Remember we only provide interested parties with a way to contact you ( your email is not given out or visible on the site) and the general area in which you live. After the first contact has been made, you can then provide more specific details should you wish to.
You are also able to view details of Workawayers who have contacted you, including their photo and any other information they have provided upon signing up.
How long do my visitors stay for?
This is entirely up to you. We recommend that you arrange, at first, a short period of time (5 days to a week) as a trial period with the view of extending should both parties wish to (some volunteers have ended up staying up as long as a year and many become life long friends!) This gives both parties an "opt out clause" in case of unforeseeable circumstances, or if you simply just don't get on!
What type of accommodation am I expected to provide?
Again this depends entirely on you. This could range from providing a tent in the garden, a caravan, to the guest room of your house. The important thing to stress is that volunteers should know what type of accommodation to expect before their arrival.
What about food?
Food is normally included in the exchange, and in most exchanges the tasks of cooking and clearing up are also SHARED. This means that you are not expected to prepare three meals a day for your volunteers and likewise you can not expect them to cook for you everyday on top of the work you provide (Unless part of the exchange is cooking!) Again the best thing is to make your wishes clear from the start to eliminate problems in the future. Remember it is a cultural exchange, so you should just carry on with your normal eating times and cook with or provide the necessary without any special change. Should you wish to eat in the style of your visitors then again this is entirely up to you.
How do I register with workaway.info?
Click on to the link below, where you will be asked to provide some information about yourself and/or your organisation, information about the type of work you want to be done, information about the type of accommodation you can offer and some general information about the type of helper you are looking for (smoker/non smoker etc.).

Another offer for PA DB
Rasaan Stewart of Collegeville (Pa.) Perkiomen Valley.Several new offers have gone out in Pennsylvania recently, as the UConn coaching staff makes their way from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia. Another player who recently picked up an offer was
After some interaction with Coach Matt Cersosimo, Stewart found out about his UConn offer on Monday night.
"He said he would show my film to the head coach and that he would get back to me or my coach," said Stewart. "He just wanted to evaluate what type of person I was. So that night, my head coach Scott Reed texted me and told me that they offered."
Stewart has become a hot recruit in the region, picking up several offers in the last month. So what are his thoughts about the Huskies now that they offered?
"They have a good academic history and I think that's important," he said. "The football team is on the rise so that's good. I don't know too much, but I'm looking forward on getting more information on UConn."
Stewart is being recruited as either a safety or slot receiver by the Huskies.
"I prefer the position that gets me on the field faster and helps the team more," he said.
Now with the offer, Stewart is thinking about taking a visit to Storrs.
"I'd have to discuss things with my parents and see what their schedule looks like first, but I don't see why I wouldn't," said Stewart, who mentioned a few other possible visits. "Boston College, Georgia Tech, Rutgers and Old Dominion are ones I'd like to check out."
Stewart has already taken recent visits to Pittsburgh, Temple, UMass and Villanova.
UConnReport.com will continue to stay in touch with Stewart to see how his recruiting process progresses and to see when he schedules a visit to Storrs.
