When the heat of the summer hit in Connecticut in July it was Keith Rocco that celebrated with a fiery run.
And it was impressive enough to put Rocco, of Wallingford, on top of the July edition of the NASCAR Hunter Index.
Rocco won seven of his 10 starts during the July judging period for the poll.
The NASCAR Hunter Index, which debuted in 2010, is a monthly poll that highlights standout performance for the previous month across NASCAR's developmental divisions, which includes touring divisions and the weekly short track Whelen All-American Series.
Drivers are voted on by a panel that includes 12 media members from across North America and two representatives from NASCAR. Voters rank a top-15 each month with drivers being ranked with 15 points for first place, 14 points for second place through the list.
Rocco earned eight of the first place votes from the 13 members of the panel that voted for July. Rocco accumulated 166 points. Rocco, the reigning NASCAR Whelen All-American Series national champion, competes full-time in the SK Modified divisions at Stafford Motor Speedway, Thompson International Speedway and the Waterford Speedbowl.
C.E. Falk III, who had five wins in July at Langley (Va.) Speedway, was second in the poll with 149 points. Falk, of Virginia Beach, earned three first place votes.
Luis Martinez Jr. (K&N Pro Series West) and Homero Richards (NASCAR Mexico Series) also each earned one first place vote.
K&N Pro Series East driver Max Gresham was third in the voting. Whelen Modified Tour driver Todd Szegedy of Ridgefield was fourth in the voting after a win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on July 16 and a second place at Riverhead (N.Y.) Raceway last Saturday. Three-time Whelen All-American Series national champion Phillip Morris was fifth in the poll.
Scott Steckly (NASCAR Canadian Tire Series) was sixth, followed by Greg Pursley (NASCAR K&N Pro Series West), Martinez, Darrell Wallace Jr. (NASCAR K&N Pro Series East) and Richards.

SALISBURY - And so the marathon begins here at Lime Rock Park.
It's racing, racing and more racing today, from one corner of the state to the other. It starts here in Salisbury and ends at some point late tonight in Waterford.
The day started with the long trek to the Northwest corner. Program Salisbury into a GPS from just about anywhere and your arrival time will be listed as "at some time in the next 24 hours." Yeah, there's no quick way to Salisbury.
But after the rare and disagreeable early morning wakeup we're here, actually been here for almost two hours now. They do start early here. Actually, the first feature of the day is already over with Matt Schneider of Lexington, Ky. winning the 30-lap Formula Car challenge. Keep your eyes on that dude. Ok, we kid, we kid.
We already got our own little personal giggle of the day listening to track announcer Greg Rickes explain the use of local and full course cautions to fans. We couldn't help but think about the American Canadian Tour's last lap "local, kinda, sorta, ah just race through the carnage any way" final lap caution rule.
So the big show today is the Camping World East Series Mohegan Sun 200. We're looking at about 1 p.m. green flag, and based on that estimate we're predicting the first three cars off the track by 1:02 p.m.
And after watching Matt Kobyluck win his third consecutive Mohegan Sun 200 we'll be heading to Waterford where Wings and Wheels will bring together the True Value Modified Racing Series, NEMA Midgets and ISMA SuperModifieds along with the track's regular SK Modified division. Good times. See ya on the road.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) -- Coach Bob Stoops believes No. 2 Oklahoma is doing a good job of balancing the anticipation of playing in the BCS national championship with a long layoff leading up to the game.
Stoops said at a news conference Wednesday morning that the Sooners (12-1) are anxious to face top-ranked Florida (12-1) on Thursday night in Miami, but will try to pace themselves until game time.
By then, it will have been 33 days since Oklahoma beat Missouri in the Big 12 championship game. Stoops says it's possible to peak too early, but he thinks the Sooners have done their best to be on edge at the right time.

PANAMA CITY BEACH-- Groups of students were seen hanging out on the beach Monday, but they didn't have to play hooky to be there.
This weeks marks Surfside Middle Schools 20th annual Wet Week.
All week long students spent Monday morning as biologists searching the Gulf Coast for life.
According to Glenn Faust, while both students and parents are familiar with area beaches, few understand how diverse the ecosystem is right along the coast.
"Having the ability to come down here and actually use the equipment and see what marine biologists do in the field. Collecting the organisms and being able to put their senses on it where they can touch, see and feel, it means the world," Faust said.
Wet week students use the coast to focus on everything from biology to chemistry.

County sheriff's office sees rise in burglaries, assaultsPublished 4:20pm Sunday, July 8, 2012
The Cass County Sheriff's Office reported a rise in burglaries, assaults and criminal sexual conduct cases for the 2011 annual report.
During the regular meeting of the Cass County Board of Commissioners, Undersheriff Rick Behnke presented the sheriff's office's annual report, citing a rise in specific cases. Among those elevated numbers, Behnke also reported that other cases and incidents had declined in the past year.
Burglary cases reported in 2011 reached 259, listing four more incidents than 2010's 255 reported cases.
"We can associate the rise in burglaries to the economy," Behnke said during the presentation Thursday evening.
Criminal sexual conduct cases also saw a minimal rise with 44 in 2011, as opposed to 2010's 38 cases.
The largest rise in the sheriff's annual report was attributed to assault cases, which totaled 20 more in 2011 than in 2010. The report listed that 2009 ended with 255 assault incidents, dropping to 233 in 2010, and then rising again in 2011 to 253. Behnke said the shift in numbers was normal fluctuation from year to year.
Many aspects of the report cited a drop in the annual numbers. According to Behnke, calls requesting sheriff's office service dropped a few thousand in 2011, totaling only 19,509 as opposed to 22,318 in 2010.
There was also a decline in traffic crashes, with 2011 seeing one less fatal crash than 2010. Deer-related car accidents also dropped from 492 in 2010 to 391 in 2011. Behnke said the drop could be attributed to a disease that affected and killed several deer during the past year.
Other declines included arrests made by patrol deputies of those in contempt of court. Last year's reported number only reached 188 after 2010 cited 202 instances.
The report also detailed a drop in drug-related crimes in the past year. Behnke described a spike from 2009 to 2010, jumping from 161 cases to 235. Last year's number dropped by 25, with only 210 cases.
The report also presented technology improvements the sheriff's office has incorporated to their systems, including inmate monetary transfers and the use of www.nixle.com for up-to-date incidents and events that take place in the county.

George Zimmerman keeps digging himself deeper and deeper into out of order-ness!
Most recently, the killer of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin signed up for a celebrity boxing match and said he would take on any opponent, including Black people. Earlier this week, rapper The Game said he wants to jump in the ring, and now DMX says he wants to fight Zimmerman for "every black person who has been done wrong in the system."
During an interview with TMZ, the "Party Up" rapper said, "I am going to beat the living f**k out him … I am breaking every rule in boxing to make sure I f**k him right up."
Using every vulgar word in the book, X went on to say that he wanted to pee on the former neighborhood watch caption's face.

|Three Iowa Streamgages Shutting Down on Friday
|News Releases - Environment, Weather & Nature
|Written by Marisa Lubeck
|Thursday, 16 May 2013 07:57
Three U.S. Geological Survey streamgages in Iowa, which measure streamflow and water level, will be shut down on Friday, May 17, due to the federal budget sequestration.
The affected Iowa streamgages will be discontinued beginning this Friday because of a five-percent sequestration-related budget cut to the USGS National Streamflow Information Program(NSIP). Of the 35 NSIP-funded streamgages in Iowa, 22 of which are fully funded by NSIP, the USGS Iowa Water Science Center selected the following three for shutdown:
"It was difficult to make a selection that minimized all concerns, but these three Iowa streamgages will be shut down because they have comparatively short records, limited impacts on partner organizations, and their discontinuation is least likely to affect public safety," said USGS hydrologist Jon Nania.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS), local communities may receive less accurate river flood forecasts and less advanced notice of flooding due to the shutdown of these streamgages. Communities that may be impacted include Waterloo, Cedar Falls, Fort Dodge, Finchford, and Bedford, Iowa, and Maryville, Mo.
"Streamgages like these help communities understand how and when to prepare for floods," said Jeff Zogg, a NWS Senior Hydrologist in Des Moines. "In some past floods, the peak streamflows measured by these gages have contributed several feet to the downstream crests."
Streamgages collect critical streamflow and water availability data that are used by organizations nationwide to predict and address drought and flood conditions. The USGS and over 850 federal, state, and local agencies cooperatively fund the USGS streamgaging network, which consists of over 8,000 streamgages.
The USGS will discontinue operation of no more than 200 streamgages nationwide due to budget cuts as a result of sequestration. Additional streamgages may be affected if partners reduce their funding to support USGS streamgages. The USGS is working to identify which streamgages will be impacted and will post this information onlineas it becomes available.
More information about streamgaging in Iowa is available on the USGS Iowa Water Science Center website.
More information about NWS flood forecasts and warnings is available on the NWS Des Moines website, and on Facebookand Twitter @NWSDesMoines.

1st Global Conference: Monstrous Geographies: Places and Spaces of Monstrosity (July 2012, Oxford, United Kingdom)
full name / name of organization:
Dr. Rob Fisher/ Inter-Disciplinary.Net
contact email:
1st Global Conference:
Thursday 19th July – Saturday 21st July 2012
What is the relationship between the monstrous and the geographic – those places monsters inhabit but also places that are configured as being monstrous in and of themselves? Places that engage notions of self and otherness, inclusion and exclusion, normal and aberrant, defense and contagion? From the Necropolis to the Killing Fields and from the Amityville Horror to the island of Dr. Moreau, geographical locations have acted as the repository or emanation of human evil, made monstrous by the rituals and behaviors enacted within them, or by their peculiarities of atmosphere or configuration. Whether actual or imagined, these places of wonder, fear and horror speak of the symbiotic relation between humanity and location that sees morality, ideology and emotions given physical form in the house, the forest, the island, the nation and even far away worlds in both space and time. These places act as magnets for destructive and evil forces, such as the island of Manhattan; they are the source of malevolent energies and forces, such as Transylvania, Area 51 and Ringu; and they are the fulcrum for chaotic, warping energies, such as the Bermuda Triangle, Atlantis and Pandemonium. Alongside this, there exist the monstrous geographies created by scientific experimentation, human waste and environmental accidents, creating sites of potential and actual disaster such as the Chernobyl nuclear plant, the Gulf of Mexico in the wake of the BP oil disaster, and the devastated coastline of Tohuku, Japan. These places raise diverse post-human quandaries regarding necessities in the present leading to real or imagined futures of humanity and habitation.
Encompassing the factual and the fictional, the literal and the literary, this project investigates the very particular relationships and interactions between humanity and place, the natural and the unnatural, the familiar and the unfamiliar, and sees a multitude of configurations of human monstrosity and evil projected, inflicted, or immanent to place. Such monstrous geographies can be seen to emerge from the disparity between past and present, memory and modernity, urban and rural and can be expressed through categories of class, gender and racial difference as well as generational, political and religious tensions.
Papers, reports, work-in-progress, workshops and pre-formed panels are invited on issues related to any of the following themes:
Monstrous Cartographies:
Monstrous Islands:
Monstrous Cosmographies:
Monstrous Environmental Geographies:
Monstrous Religious Sites & Ritualistic Monstrosity:
Monstrous Political Environments
Monstrous Landscapes of Conflict:
Uncanny Geographical Temporalities:
Monsters on the Move:
This project will run concurrently with our project on Apocalypse– we welcome any papers considering the problems or addressing issues on Monstrous Geographies and Apocalypse for a cross-over panel. We also welcome pre-formed panels on any aspect of tmonstrous geographies or in relation to crossover panel(s).
300 word abstracts should be submitted by Friday 27th February 2012. If an abstract is accepted for the conference, a full draft paper should be submitted by Friday 25th May 2012.
300 word abstracts should be submitted to the Organising Chairs; abstracts may be in Word, WordPerfect, or RTF formats, following this order:
a) author(s), b) affiliation, c) email address, d) title of abstract, e) body of abstract, f0 up to 10 keywords
Please use plain text (Times Roman 12) and abstain from using any special formatting, characters or emphasis (such as bold, italics or underline). Please note that a Book of Abstracts is planned for the end of the year. All accepted abstracts will be included in this publication. We acknowledge receipt and answer to all paper proposals submitted. If you do not receive a reply from us in a week you should assume we did not receive your proposal; it might be lost in cyberspace! We suggest, then, to look for an alternative electronic route or resend.
Organising Chairs
* Jessica Rapson
The aim of the conference is to bring together people from different areas and interests to share ideas and explore various discussions which are innovative and exciting. All papers accepted for and presented at this conference are eligible for publication in an ISBN eBook. Selected papers may be invited to go forward for development into a themed ISBN hard copy volume. Some papers may also be invited for inclusion in the Journal of Monsters and the Monstrous.

by Cannabis Movement Welcomes CARICOM Heads
Merissa Stephen
demonstration outside the Sandals Grande St.
Lucian Spa and Beach Resort, during the 33rd
Regular Meeting of the CARICOM Heads, has sparked
much conversation on the topic of the decriminalization
of Cannabis, both locally and regionally.
by the Chairman of the Cannabis Movement, the
demonstration of activists, amongst whom were
3 minors, paraded near the entrance of the Sandals
Grande as CARICOM leaders gathered for their
meet last Wednesday.
activists were captured advocating for change
in current policies relevant to Cannabis and
its decriminalization. Noted in the protests
were messages written on placards, some of which
read, 'Free the Cannabis Plant'
and 'I skipped school to ask you to legalize
Cannabis, because if you continue to destroy
this planet, I will have no need for my education'.
DeCaires, Chair of the Cannabis Movement, in
commenting on the involvement of the three minors
at the protest, stated that the minors were
accompanied by their parents, who were part
of the demonstration. He also indicated that
the movement is one which focuses on future
benefits, benefits which he says, are for the
"It was
our intention to show that this is for generations
to come. Obviously, people always look for
the negative and really don't look for
the positive, so there are people who don't
even know we are talking about hemp as well.
All they can see is the marijuana,"
said DeCaires.
DeCaires has
stated that the benefits of Cannabis extend
to that of the industrial and medical industries.
"The decriminalization of cannabis is
maybe 10%-15% for the freedom and recreationaly
use, but generally, it's for the industrial
use; we are killing the planet, we are polluting
the waters...The hemp plant can single handedly
replace lumber,...it's there for food,
it's there for medicine, curing cancer.
So generally, what we do now can affect the
kids for later on," he said.
The leader of
the Lucian Greens Party has also stated for
the record, that the demonstration serves
to stir up dialogue not only in the country,
but regionally, making reference to the strides
that Central and South America are already
making in this particular area. "We
just want a conversation; we don't want
anybody to change anything now. We're
not expecting any change, but we want dialogue
on the issue," DeCaires declared.

|FOLLICA, INC. Patent applications
|Patent application number
|COMBINATION THERAPY - The present methods, systems, and kits permit the induction of multimodal injury to a subject's skin. This approach maximizes the responsiveness of the treated area to treatments for producing hair follicles; exciting, activating, and dispersing existing hair-producing structures; and bringing about other physiological changes that correspond to increased hair growth and/or the growth of more robust hairs. In contrast with conventional methodologies, the present methods and systems provide heretofore unattainable advantages through use of a multi-pronged approach of de novo hair follicle production, in combination with reorganization of existing structures to produce new follicular units, as well as pharmaceutical enhancement of both processes, and other gainful techniques.
|Methods, Kits, and Compositions for Generating New Hair Follicles and Growing Hair - The invention features methods, kits, and compositions for generating new hair follicles and growing hair on a subject.
|BODY SURFACE TREATMENT - The present methods and systems provide the induction of preselected injury types to target areas of tissue in an iterative manner in order to provide beneficial treatment with respect to a desired body surface. The methods and systems disclosed herein may include the precise selection of target areas for treatment, which may itself involve identifying physical features that require treatment, distinguishing areas or features that are not suitable for treatment, or both. The present modalities are distinguishable from prior methodologies having lower rates of success because of the failure of the latter to match treatment or treatment type with specific physical features.
|HAIR GROWTH TREATMENT - The present disclosure provides methods and systems for increasing hair growth in subjects in need thereof due to male- or female-pattern hair loss, pathological hair loss, or hair loss after injury. By any use of any appropriate mechanical, electromagnetic, or chemical means, the present disclosure pertains to the segmentation of hair follicles into two or more disunited subunits in order to form new follicles from the respective subunits. In contrast with known techniques for bisecting hair follicles and as described more fully herein, the present methods and systems permit the bisection of single follicles or populations of follicles with a high degree of efficiency, and thereby represent an effective treatment option for those in need of increased hair growth.
|SEQUENTIAL BODY SURFACE TREATMENT - The present methods and systems provide treatment of a preselected body surface by injuring a portion of the body surface, optionally applying a composition such as a pharmaceutical agent to the injured portion of the body surface, and selection of a further portion on the body surface for the same or different injury and optional contacting with the same or different composition, wherein the further portion has a preselected geometry with respect to the first injured portion. The repetition of the selection, injury, and optional exposure to a composition with respect to successive portions of the body surface, optionally under partial or total computer control, provides efficient treatment of the body surface pursuant to the objective of regeneration, remodeling, resurfacing, restoration, follicular neogenesis, neocollagenesis, stem cell recruitment, activation, or differentiation, reepitheliazation, wound healing, or any other desired biological or physical modification.

Dinosaurs would likely still be around today if the 6.2-mile-wide Chicxulub asteroid had crashed into Earth just a little while before or after it did, concludes an international team of some of the world's leading paleontologists.
In short, dinosaurs were victims of colossal bad luck, according to University of Edinburgh vertebrate paleontologist and evolutionary biologist Stephen Brusatte, who led the study that is published in the latest issue of Biological Reviews.
"The asteroid almost certainly did it," meaning wiped out the dinosaurs, he told Discovery News, "but it just so happened to hit at a bad time when dinosaur ecosystems had been weakened by a loss of diversity."
"If the asteroid hit a few million years earlier, when dinosaurs were more diverse, or a few million years later, when they had a chance to recover as they often had done before after diversity losses, then dinosaurs probably wouldn't have gone extinct," he said.
Brusatte and his team came to this conclusion after studying an updated catalog of dinosaur fossils to create a picture of how dinosaurs, and the environment, changed over the few million years before the asteroid struck what is now Mexico.
The researchers found that during the years prior to the asteroid hit, Earth was undergoing huge volcanic eruptions and extreme changes in temperature and sea level. The changes were, at least in some respects, interconnected. For example, major volcanic eruptions, especially in what is now India, likely affected global temperatures.
Tectonic events, such as mountain formation, also led to the disappearance of a large seaway that had covered much of the interior of North America during most of the Cretaceous.
All of these changes impacted dinosaur populations, with large plant-eating dinosaurs that were at the base of the food chain particularly experiencing a dramatic drop in number. This, in turn, would have weakened the entire dino ecosystem.

Archived Technology Projects
Projects under the Eclipse Technology Project have limited lifecycles. Unlike the major top-level Projects, the Technology Projects are meant to be technology explorations or incubators. When these projects have explored, proved, or disproved their associated technologies, the project comes to its natural end. For some projects, this end is a paper publishing the research results; for others, this end is to be incorporated into the base technology of another top-level project.
Archived newsgroups and mailing lists are also available separately.

KoiKoi version 1.0 is functionally complete and currently used in commercial Eclipse add-ons. Koi provides a intra-workspace communication platform for development of collaborative Eclipse features. Examples of collaborative features that are possible using Koi range from the relatively simple such as event notification (check-in, check-out, conflicting changes, etc.) to something as complex a supporting remote pair programming.
The Koi infrastructure is built around a client/server architecture using a Web Services RPC communications model. The clients are individual eclipse platform instances that communicate with a "collaboration server" that supports data persistence and implements shared collaborative services. The base infrastructure also includes some base services such as user identification/authentication, client-to-client messaging, and event notification.

IDE for Laszlo
IDE for Laszlo is an Eclipse-based development environment for creating, editing, debugging, and testing applications based on the LZX declarative mark-up language. Laszlo is based on LZX, which is an XML and JavaScript description language similar in spirit to XUL (XML User interface Language) and XAML ("Longhorn" mark-up language by Microsoft™).
The Laszlo Platform is an open-source platform for the development and delivery of Rich Internet applications (see http://www.openlaszlo.org for more information) where the LZX XML mark-up is used to create the user interfaces.

OMELET (Open Modeling Environment with Links for Extensions and Transformations)The Open Modeling Environment with Links for Extension by Transformation project aimed to provide the ability to integrate the increasingly wide variety of modeling transformation technologies and tools so that otherwise incompatible tools could be used in combination. As such OMELET could be viewed as a next generation make, using meta-models to give strict type signatures for models and transformations between models.
OMELET demonstrated an ability to integrate various tools, supporting transformations written in Java, XSLT1, XSLT2, or ANT. OMELET pioneered a multi-level typing system for meta-models so that a model comforming to a meta-model could be described as a file representation of an XML 1.0 serialization of an XMI 1.3 encoding of a UML 1.4 meta-model, thereby allowing transformations to operate at appropriate levels of abstraction. Work in progress supported ATL, Tefkat, a simple composite transformation language and a set of Ecores for various MOF and UML standards.
OMELET never acquired sufficient resources to progress at a satisfactory rate. Lack of resources was a particular problem for an integration project since it was too easy to be distracted into looking at every other interesting modeling project and concluding that yes that too would be good to integrate with OMELET. Lack of resources also prevents the release of MOF and UML models since licensing issues were never resolved.
Final status
OMELET was just about functional with respect to invoking individual transformations, but that was more sensibly done within the environment of that transformation. OMELET was close to supporting composite transformations at which point OMELET would become useful.
Prior to archiving, the prevailing CVS status was upgraded to support Eclipse 3.1 and Java 5. The final release on the update site needed the Eclipse 3.1M4 release to avoid problems with early Eclipse support for Java 5.
The MDDi project has almost identical goals to OMELET and significantly greater resources. It is therefore hoped that MDDi can fulfill OMELET's ambitions.

Discontent surrounding Dorchester Seniors, Inc., that has been percolating behind the scenes for several weeks finally burst into view at Wednesday's county council meeting, but with no clear resolution.
Instead, Council Chairman Larry Hargett, whose appointee Marvin Johnson spoke at length against the group's management and legal status, gaveled the discussion closed as Johnson and Councilman Bill Hearn lobbed accusations across the room at each other.
A visibly angry Hearn took Johnson to task for calling the group's management "trash" and said he couldn't let Johnson operate in kangaroo court fashion and tarnish the reputations of people who have put years of their lives into the organization, then simply walk out of the room without discussion.
Johnson started to leave after his time on the agenda ended and before Board Chairman Robert Ford began to speak, but he remained in the room after Hearn requested he stay.
Johnson said he wasn't calling individuals "trash" but the group's procedures.
The county shouldn't be giving money to a private entity, and if it does, it should have a contract for services, Johnson said.
"Mr. Chairman, these are all great suggestions that should maybe be brought up at a board meeting," Hearn snapped as Hargett banged the gavel, referring to the board's report that Johnson had attended only 12 of 41 meetings.
Johnson, however, said he has attended committee meetings and the board didn't count his attendance there.
Johnson, Hargett and Councilman Willie Davis, council's ex-officio on the board, have raised several concerns, though the men aren't necessarily pointing out the same issues. Among the issues:
• The lack of diversity amongst supervisory staff
• The question of whether Margaret Goodwine would be reappointed to the board
• The rental fees charged to people who want to use the facilities for private events
• The extent of the group's reserve fund
• Employees' participation in the state retirement system
Dorchester Seniors is a private nonprofit that receives funding from the county in the form of dedicated millage, Trident Area Agency on Aging, Trident United Way and other groups and individuals.
Per state law, local councils on aging that receive funding from the lieutenant governor's Office on Aging are eligible to participate in the state retirement system.
The lieutenant governor's office receives federal funds that it distributes to regional aging offices, including Trident Area Agency on Agency, which then in turn distribute the funds to local groups like Dorchester Seniors.
Dorchester Seniors then runs the senior centers, which offer fitness centers, classes, socialization opportunities and meals at the centers, but also distributes meals to seniors in their homes, provides basic in-home aid and transportation to and from the centers.
Johnson told council that Dorchester Seniors has $850,000 in a reserve fund from taxpayer money that "has no business being there."
Tony Oglietti, the treasurer and chairman of the finance committee, said the reserve fund will help the group either expand its small St. George center or build a new center in the Summerville area, as demand is growing.
In addition, he said the group has a $116,000 deficit this year that will be covered by the reserve fund and expects a deficit for the next two years because Trident United Way is cutting funding.
Trident United Way recently narrowed its funding priorities to focus on education, financial stability and health.
Davis criticized the rental fees the group charges and the lack of diversity among supervisors.
"I wouldn't say we have a racist group. I wouldn't say we have a perfect union, either," Davis said.
Ford said he's tried to find minorities for supervisory jobs, but they have been unwilling to take them, mostly because of the pay.
"I'm a child of the Sixties. I know racism when I see it," said Ford, who is black.
Davis didn't completely buy Ford's explanation. He found it hard to believe that none of the in-home aides, who help with light housekeeping and cooking, was interested in a promotion.
"Do all the minorities have to clean the rooms?" Davis asked.
Davis noted he was talking about diversity, not racism, but Ford said Johnson had specifically brought up the accusation of racism.
Davis was also upset that Goodwine wasn't reappointed to the board. She had been Councilman Kenny Waggoner's appointee. When Councilman George Bailey won the seat, he decided to appoint someone from the St. George area, he said.
There was then discussion of electing Goodwine to the board from the membership. That failed to occur, a point of contention with each side saying the other didn't follow through.
However, Ford told council Wednesday that there's another opening in January and Goodwine will be elected then.
Dorchester Seniors isn't the only nonprofit to receive funding from the county. Children in Crisis also receives millage from the county, and it doesn't have a contract, though council does review and approve its budget each year.
Nor do any groups that receive accommodations tax funding have contracts with the county, according to county staff.
At budget time each year, the outside groups that receive millage come to the county with their requests.
These groups include the library, the school districts, the fire districts, Trident Technical College, the Dorchester County Career and Technology Center, Children in Crisis and Dorchester Seniors.
The municipalities set their own millage and the county merely collects the tax and passes the money along.
Bailey and Councilman Jay Byars spoke briefly during the meeting, saying concerns about diversity should be addressed but not by accusing the board or management of racism.
Councilman David Chinnis, in Europe on business, observed the meeting via Skype. Afterward, he said he stayed quiet because the other councilmen said everything he would have said.

No. 483: "Hot Spots"
The U.S. Supreme Court has just agreed to hear an appeal involving the Agema Thermovision 210, despite its defenders' assertion that it reveals "only amorphous hot spots, not intimate details." In the case before the court, who did what with the Agema Thermovision 210?
Send your answer by 6 p.m. ET Thursday to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Monday's Question (No. 482)—"Quién No Pertenece?":
Peru's Vladimiro Montesinos, Haiti's Raul Cédras, Ecuador's Abdalá Bucaram, the Shah of Iran, Panama's Manuel Noriega—who does not belong? Why?
"Cedras, because, while the others were corrupt murderous despots, he was the only corrupt murderous despot who could raise his victims from the dead and kill them again."—Floyd Elliot
"Montesinos is the only one who hasn't taught or lectured at Harvard's Kennedy School."—Winter Miller
"The Shah, because he died without getting a chance to shake Rick Lazio's hand."—Angus MacDonald
"Actually, it's a trick question: Each and every one of them has made contributions to Al Gore's campaign."—Tim Carvell

Duo-Gard Industries Inc. has added a new model to the company's growing line of bicycle shelters. Named the Van-Gard, the shelter's initial installation is at State University of New York at Geneseo, a premier liberal arts institution. The Van-Gard is the 11th addition to its standard bike shelter models for Duo-Gard, a leading innovator in outdoor structures and daylighting systems.
SUNY Geneseo's choice is a classic style with the contemporary twist of solar lighting. Located outside the dining hall, the shelter is a unique addition for the university, according to engineer Earl Bailey, project manager at Hunt Engineers, Architects & Land Surveyors in Rochester, New York. "This is the first of its kind on campus, and we're very proud of it," he said.
The shelter's design integrates architectural aesthetics with the security of solar lighting. The curved roof was created with laser-cut aluminum plates welded into the arched rafter assemblies. Translucent glazing is 8mm clear multiwall polycarbonate in a batten style. Structural framing, painted in a custom blue, was built with 3 ½" diameter round aluminum extrusions. Duo-Gard selected a new all-in-one, flat panel, mast-mounted solar module for illumination. The unit is capable of swiveling in the desired southerly direction to achieve maximum efficiency. Like all Duo-Gard shelters, the Van-Gard model is specifically engineered for area wind and snow loads.
Solar lighting was a critical element. Bailey, responsible for researching shelter solutions, said the university wanted to accommodate students with safety and security as well as bike parking convenience. The 9' x 16' shelter holds 14 bikes.
Another important element of the project was its contribution to sustainability's call for increasing alternative transportation efforts. "As one of the most environmentally responsible colleges in the United Stated and Canada as recognized by The Princeton Review , Geneseo is committed to sustainability and responsible stewardship of our planet's resources," said Kristina Hannam, associate professor of biology and co-chair of the college's President's Commission on Sustainability.
Michael Arvidson, Duo-Gard's executive vice president, said SUNY Geneseo joins a growing list of clients at educational facilities. "We're proud to see our bike shelters as a component of an environmentally aware approach to alternative transportation at America's schools and universities," he added.
The Van-Gard bike shelter is available in standard sizes from 9'x12' to 9'x36' as well as custom. The company's shelters are designed to address specific bike parking needs and adhere to APBP guidelines.

I was just curious how other people approach the situation.
My most direct and safiest route on the commute home is down a state highway, during a snowstorm the side roads are far more dangerous. On the few occasions that I've biked home during a heavy snow storm, I've had a problem with encountering snow plows. Not just some townie in a pickup truck either, because it is a state route I usually encounter the big industrial snow plows. Sometimes there are two working in tandem.
What can make the situation really hair raising is that with heavy snow comes heavy cloud cover, so even in the middle of the day there is a really grayish, flat light. And, the visibility may be further obscured by falling snow. Any blinkie that would normally be visible 600 feet away is only visible from about 60 feet in those conditions.
I usually just switch sides and ride on the wrong side until the plow(s) pass(es). There usually isn't many cars on the road, so crisscrossing isn't the hazard it normally would be.
I only did that for one season though, I don't think my heart could take the hair raising excitement of ducking snow plows for longer than that. Now if it's snowing too heavily, I just stay at the hotel next to where I work. My employer pays for the room if I choose to stay over, which is a nice perk.

You can also climb into future-tech vehicles to rampage in a tank, speed across the battlefield in a light recon vehicle, and more. Combat in DUST 514 is tactical and squad-based, and rewards you for playing as a team.
What are the objectives?
Mercenary teams in DUST 514 wage battles, acquire territory, amass wealth, and build empires. By battling with and against other players, players can control specific areas of the EVE Universe. Once they gain control of a territory on a planet, they will have control of its resources and can build upon it; the more resources players have, the more powerful they become.
How is the game "massively multiplayer"?
DUST 514 takes place in the massive, persistent EVE Universe, which has been thriving for over ten years, contains hundreds of thousands of EVE Online players, and spans thousands of solar systems and individual planets. A major war in the EVE Universe could involve thousands of players at once. DUST 514 can support 16v16 matches in a single battle in a single district on a single planet, and there can be multiple battles on a planet happening simultaneously, impacting each other in real time. The scale of DUST 514 is unprecedented.
What about customization?
DUST 514 goes well beyond the basic weapon customization and character leveling found in many of today's top shooters. DUST 514 players can tailor and enhance their characters' equipment and skills to create their own unique soldier class, whether that's a heavily-armored sniper or a quick-footed scout with a big gun. In addition, every vehicle in DUST 514 can also be deeply customized with different weapons and capabilities.
So how does the leveling system work?
DUST 514 players can train skills for combat. These skills will help to enhance their armor so they can take more damage, upgrade their abilities with certain weapons, use vehicles more effectively, and much more. Training skills also unlocks abilities to use advanced weaponry and more powerful vehicles. Skills can be learned in the background as well: Players can walk away from DUST 514 for an hour or a day, then come back and see that they've gained raw skill points to spend as they wish.
Can you explain the marketplace?
DUST 514 marks a first for consoles as a AAA free-to-play FPS. Players can download the game from the PlayStation®Network and play DUST 514 completely free of charge. Players earn ISK, an in-game currency, by winning battles, doing missions, and more. Players can also buy Aurum, another in-game currency, through the PlayStation®Store. Players looking to customize their experience can spend either ISK or Aurum on a variety of microtransaction purchases. That said, DUST 514 is not a pay-to-win game. Players purchasing items with Aurum will not result in an unfair advantage over players who only spend ISK, the in-game earned currency.
Do I need to be familiar with EVE Online to play DUST 514?
No, not at all. DUST 514 is designed to provide great moment-to-moment shooter gameplay, with no knowledge of the EVE Universe required. But players looking for a deeper experience will be able to discover and explore the EVE Universe, the most enthralling and sophisticated virtual world ever created.
How do I interact with EVE Online players?
Initially, DUST 514 mercenaries will be able to join EVE Online players in the corporate wars that rage across the contested boundaries between empires. By working together, players will be able to fight critical battles that can swing the sovereignty of the system and thus influence the large scale strategic balance. EVE players will be able to directly affect the outcome of these critical ground battles by bombarding the opposing faction from space.
The EVE Universe is all about power, domination, and control of space. Players in DUST 514 and EVE Online will work with and against each other to wage battles, conquer territories, amass wealth, and build empires.
Can I still have fun without interacting with EVE Online players?
Simple answer, yes. While DUST 514 is a gateway into the EVE Universe, players looking for the classic 10-minute first person shooter experience will enjoy DUST 514 and its multitude of weapons, vehicles, worlds, and gameplay modes.
How does DUST 514 support the Sony PlayStation® Ecosystem?
DUST 514 fully supports every aspect of the PlayStation® Ecosystem. It is available via download exclusively on the PlayStation®Network; its unique cross-platform play, persistent universe, and free-to-play gameplay are only possible on the PlayStation®3.
DUST 514 fully supports PlayStation®Move.

Panel works to draw new Mo. Senate districts
Wednesday, February 22, 2012
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — A bipartisan commission is meeting in Jefferson City to draw new boundaries for Missouri's 34 state Senate districts.
The 10-member panel was meeting into the evening Wednesday about a block from the state Capitol. Republican and Democratic commission members have been holding separate discussions about different proposed maps.
This is the second attempt to develop new Senate districts based on the results of the 2010 census. A different bipartisan panel deadlocked last year and failed to agree on a map, and a special panel of appellate judges then handled the task. But the Missouri Supreme Court in January rejected that map, which required the process to start over.
Candidates can start filing next week for this year's elections.

What's Holding Back American Teenagers?
Our high schools are a disaster.
In other words, over the past 40 years, despite endless debates about curricula, testing, teacher training, teachers' salaries, and performance standards, and despite billions of dollars invested in school reform, there has been no improvement—none—in the academic proficiency of American high school students.
It's not just No Child Left Behind or Race to the Top that has failed our adolescents—it's every single thing we have tried. The list of unsuccessful experiments is long and dispiriting. Charter high schools don't perform any better than standard public high schools, at least with respect to student achievement. Students whose teachers "teach for America" don't achieve any more than those whose teachers came out of conventional teacher certification programs. Once one accounts for differences in the family backgrounds of students who attend public and private high schools, there is no advantage to going to private school, either. Vouchers make no difference in student outcomes. No wonder school administrators and teachers from Atlanta to Chicago to my hometown of Philadelphia have been caught fudging data on student performance. It's the only education strategy that consistently gets results.
The especially poor showing of high schools in America is perplexing. It has nothing to do with high schools having a more ethnically diverse population than elementary schools. In fact, elementary schools are more ethnically diverse than high schools, according to data from the National Center for Education Statistics. Nor do high schools have more poor students. Elementary schools in America are more than twice as likely to be classified as "high-poverty" than secondary schools. Salaries are about the same for secondary and elementary school teachers. They have comparable years of education and similar years of experience. Student-teacher ratios are the same in our elementary and high schools. So are the amounts of time that students spend in the classroom. We don't shortchange high schools financially either; American school districts actually spend a little more per capita on high school students than elementary school students.
Our high school classrooms are not understaffed, underfunded, or underutilized, by international standards. According to a 2013 OECD report, only Luxembourg, Norway, and Switzerland spend more per student. Contrary to widespread belief, American high school teachers' salaries are comparable to those in most European and Asian countries, as are American class sizes and student-teacher ratios. And American high school students actually spend as many or more hours in the classroom each year than their counterparts in other developed countries.
This underachievement is costly: One-fifth of four-year college entrants and one-half of those entering community college need remedial education, at a cost of $3 billion each year.
The president's call for expanding access to higher education by making college more affordable, while laudable on the face of it, is not going to solve our problem. The president and his education advisers have misdiagnosed things. The U.S. has one of the highest rates of college entry in the industrialized world. Yet it is tied for last in the rate of college completion. More than one-third of U.S. students who enter a full-time, two-year college program drop out just after one year, as do about one fifth of students who enter a four-year college. In other words, getting our adolescents to go to college isn't the issue. It's getting them to graduate.
If this is what we hope to accomplish, we need to rethink high school in America. It is true that providing high-quality preschool to all children is an important component of comprehensive education reform. But we can't just do this, cross our fingers, and hope for the best. Early intervention is an investment, not an inoculation.
In recent years experts in early-child development have called for programs designed to strengthen children's "non-cognitive" skills, pointing to research that demonstrates that later scholastic success hinges not only on conventional academic abilities but on capacities like self-control. Research on the determinants of success in adolescence and beyond has come to a similar conclusion: If we want our teenagers to thrive, we need to help them develop the non-cognitive traits it takes to complete a college degree—traits like determination, self-control, and grit. This means classes that really challenge students to work hard—something that fewer than one in six high school students report experiencing, according to Diploma to Nowhere, a 2008 report published by Strong American Schools. Unfortunately, our high schools demand so little of students that these essential capacities aren't nurtured. As a consequence, many high school graduates, even those who have acquired the necessary academic skills to pursue college coursework, lack the wherewithal to persevere in college. Making college more affordable will not fix this problem, though we should do that too.
The good news is that advances in neuroscience are revealing adolescence to be a second period of heightened brain plasticity, not unlike the first few years of life. Even better, brain regions that are important for the development of essential non-cognitive skills are among the most malleable. And one of the most important contributors to their maturation is pushing individuals beyond their intellectual comfort zones.
It's time for us to stop squandering this opportunity. Our kids will never rise to the challenge if the challenge doesn't come.

We're coming up on a date that many people will not soon forget.
It was 22 years ago on November 22, 1985 when Hurricane Kate made landfall near Apalachicola and paved a path of destruction through North Florida and South Georgia. Kate weakened to a tropical storm by the time it reached Tallahassee, but even those winds in our heavily-wooded area caused power outages for weeks. Since Kate, only the March Superstorm of 1993 and Hurricane Dennis in July 2004 caused as much or more damage along the coast.

CME Group Inc. (CME): Today's Featured Financial Services Loser
CME Group ( CME) pushed the Financial Services industry lower today making it today's featured Financial Services loser. The industry as a whole closed the day down 0.1%. By the end of trading, CME Group fell $1.57 (-0.6%) to $258.54 on light volume. Throughout the day, 481,463 shares of CME Group exchanged hands as compared to its average daily volume of 664,800 shares. The stock ranged in price between $257.29-$261.17 after having opened the day at $260.48 as compared to the previous trading day's close of $260.11. Other company's within the Financial Services industry that declined today were: SGOCO Group ( SGOC), down 9.3%, CD International ( CDII), down 8.5%, Ampal-American Israel Corporation ( AMPL), down 7.2%, and Global X Silver Miners ETF ( SIL), down 5%. CME Group Inc. operates the CME, CBOT, NYMEX and COMEX futures exchanges worldwide. The company provides a range of products across various asset classes, such as interest rates, equity indexes, foreign exchange, energy, agricultural commodities, metals, weather, and real estate. CME Group has a market cap of $17.48 billion and is part of the financial sector. The company has a P/E ratio of 10.8, equal to the average financial services industry P/E ratio and below the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. Shares are up 7.9% year to date as of the close of trading on Monday. Currently there are nine analysts that rate CME Group a buy, one analyst rates it a sell, and six rate it a hold. TheStreet Ratings rates CME Group as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its expanding profit margins, good cash flow from operations, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had lackluster performance in the stock itself.

3 Stocks Pushing The Materials & Construction Industry Lower
Industrial Services of America ( IDSA), down 3.0%, China Recycling Energy ( CREG), down 2.4%, Deltic Timber ( DEL), down 3.0%, Nortek ( NTK), down 2.2% and Vertex Energy ( VTNR), down 10.7%. TheStreet Ratings Group would like to highlight 3 stocks that pushed the industry lower today: Nortek ( NTK) is one of the companies that pushed the Materials & Construction industry lower today. Nortek was down $1.93 (2.2%) to $84.24 on light volume. Throughout the day, 7,590 shares of Nortek exchanged hands as compared to its average daily volume of 26,200 shares. The stock ranged in price between $83.47-$85.45 after having opened the day at $84.54 as compared to the previous trading day's close of $86.17. Nortek, Inc. manufactures and sells products for remodeling and replacement, residential and commercial new construction, manufactured housing, and personal and enterprise computer markets primarily in the United States, Canada, and Europe. Nortek has a market cap of $1.3 billion and is part of the industrial goods sector. Shares are up 15.5% year-to-date as of the close of trading on Monday. Currently there are no analysts who rate Nortek a buy, no analysts rate it a sell, and 1 rates it a hold. STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreet Ratings rates Nortek as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, increase in stock price during the past year and impressive record of earnings per share growth. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including generally higher debt management risk, weak operating cash flow and poor profit margins. Highlights from TheStreet Ratings analysis on NTK go as follows:Editor's Note: Any reference to TheStreet Ratings and its underlying recommendation does not reflect the opinion of TheStreet, Inc. or any of its contributors including Jim Cramer or Stephanie Link. The Materials & Construction industry as a whole closed the day down 0.3% versus the S&P 500, which was up 0.1%. Laggards within the Materials & Construction industry included
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 5.0%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 6.0%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Compared to where it was a year ago today, the stock is now trading at a higher level, reflecting both the market's overall trend during that period and the fact that the company's earnings growth has been robust. Despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year, there is currently no conclusive evidence that warrants the purchase or sale of this stock.
- NORTEK INC has improved earnings per share by 43.9% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, NORTEK INC swung to a loss, reporting -$0.56 versus $0.59 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.94 versus -$0.56).
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to -$52.40 million or 261.37% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.
- The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 13.07 and currently higher than the industry average, implying increased risk associated with the management of debt levels within the company. Along with the unfavorable debt-to-equity ratio, NTK maintains a poor quick ratio of 0.78, which illustrates the inability to avoid short-term cash problems.
