Planning and development
Local DAs and controls
Planning for the future
A major part of the City's role in Green Square has been to ensure planning controls allow for appropriate growth and development. Our planning controls seek to provide housing and workplaces for a growing population while ensuring development is sustainable, innovative, and respectful of existing neighbourhoods.
The following pages contain key planning documents and information for developers:
- Green Square town centre
- Epsom Park Precinct
- Lachlan Precinct, Waterloo
- North Rosebery Precinct
- Affordable housing
- Employment lands
Green Square Advisory Committee
The Green Square Advisory Committee provides independent advice to the City of Sydney on the development, coordination and delivery of the Green Square Town Centre public infrastructure. Committee matters cover:
- project delivery and programming
- integration with government agencies, developers and other stakeholders
- planning and delivery risks.
Lord Mayor Clover Moore (Chair) and Councillor John Mant represent Council on the Committee. External advisors are Bob Hayward (independent consultant), Tina Tang (Jattca Property Consulting) and Robert Hawkins (Principal of HASSELL). Councillor Robyn Kemmis is the alternative Chair and Councillor Irene Doutney is the alternative for Councillor John Mant.
Private development
The City of Sydney assesses all the DAs in Green Square, and the Central Sydney Planning Committee also assesses any development costing over $50 million. We have already received DAs for the first buildings in the Green Square town centre.
If you are interested in DAs on exhibition for Green Square and inner south area, you can see the current list here. You can also view hard copies of the DAs at the Green Square Neighbourhood Service Centre, sign up to our DA alerts or contact your local area planner on 02 9265 9333.
UrbanGrowth NSW and Mirvac Green Square are delivering approximately 40% of the private buildings in the town centre.
Mirvac Green Square has started early site establishment works in the town centre, and is now ready to work on the new roads, Ebsworth Street, Tweed Place and Barker Street. Mirvac has set up an information line for Green Square town centre construction queries on 1800 261 610, or by email on firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Green Square area is undergoing constant change and growth, and this can mean that some residents may be living close to construction sites. If you have any issues regarding construction noise, dust, pollution or traffic, do not hesitate to contact the construction liaison officer for the site – the contact details for the officer should always be provided on hoarding signage.
Celebrating history
Each suburb and precinct that makes up Green Square has a rich social history. The area has been home to Aboriginal people and colonial settlers, a local industrial revolution and a diverse mix of workers and residents from all over the world.
This history and the stories within in it will be celebrated through new developments, with public art being used to interpret past events and important people. The street names in the town centre will celebrate original flora and fauna, the wool and rope
industries, the area's horse-racing heritage and the people who shaped the area.
Find out more about how the past will shape the future in the Green Square history booklet.

LC Day 80: Local Challenge – Iowa Edition
When traveling is involved, buying local can take on a whole new dimension. While it's easy to avoid well-known chains, it can be tricky to identify locally-owned out-of-town establishments. I put my Local Challenge (LC) to this test recently when visiting Des Moines.
Good Eats
The trip started with an evening in Iowa City to visit friends Geoff and Betsey, in town from Kansas City and watching Marquette tear it up in first-round NCAA hoops action. Accompanying them were several pounds of assorted K.C. barbecue from Oklahoma Joe's (the one in the gas station). Who am I to look a gift horse in the mouth!* The barbecue hit the spot, the Warriors won (surprise!), and it was a great time spent with good friends.
In Des Moines the next day, I found myself in a mall for lunch. That certainly narrows the options, but not impossibly so. I grabbed a plate of food at the Chinese food counter and a chocolate malt at Maid-Rite (3850 Merle Hay Rd), which turned out to be a bit of a local institution. Next time I'm back, I'm definitely going to try one of their loose meat sandwiches. Overall, the band concert and the good company made it an enjoyable mall trip–my first intentional mall visit in many years.
Bottle Opener
Sunday night, I ventured out to two popular Des Moines watering holes: El Bait Shop and High Life Lounge (both at 200 SW 2nd St). El Bait Shop was a recommendation on Twitter from the fine folks at Peace Tree Brewing in Knoxville, Iowa. With over 100 beers on tap and more than 100 in bottles, the selection was not lacking. As a general ordering tradition, however, my first draft selection (Peace Tree Hop Wrangler IPA) was tapped out.**
I "settled" for a bottle of Peace Tree Double IPA (Beeradvocate: A-, Ratebeer: 94). Loved it. The serving temperature was perfect and the bitterness was impressive. I sipped this one while watching Marquette win (again! surprise!) their second-round NCAA match-up. After polishing off the Double IPA, I switched to a bottle of the Peace Tree Rye Porter (Beeradvocate: B, Ratebeer: 75). I enjoyed the smoky sweetness of this one.
Beer got kicked to the curb as we ventured next door to the High Life Lounge. The place was plucked directly from the early seventies, and reminded me of oh-so-many places I've been throughout small-town Wisconsin. Signage, wall carpeting, wood paneling, tables and chairs are all vintage, as is the drink menu. High Life Lounge also serves only food and drinks from the era, including the Tangermeister: a tasty blend of Tang and Jägermeister. I got there too late for food service, or I'd have tried the highly-recommended tater-tot casserole. Next time.
We Shall Overcome
Monday included a lunch stop at The Old Spaghetti Works (310 Court Ave) for all-you-can eat pasta (I finished my first bowl, but wimped out on the second and had to take it to go). On the way back to Wisconsin, I managed a pitstop at Millstream Brewing Company (835 48th Ave, Amana), another of Iowa's breweries. Tried several samples here, and discussed the recently-overturned archaic Iowa beer tax law with one of the brew masters.
Until just last year at this time, beer over 6% ABV was taxed in Iowa as hard liquor, which made brewing the stuff in state slightly prohibitive, and distributing it outside the state-run Alcoholic Beverages Division impossible. By moving that limit to 15%, breweries are now putting more effort into classic barley wines, double IPAs, and other beers which traditionally contain higher alcohol content. Local beer distributors are now able to sell a greater selection.
And local drinkers (and those who visit the state) benefit with the renewed energy placed in the craft beer space. I took home six packs of the Millstream German Pilsner and Back Road Stout to celebrate.
* Bottom line, I just can't worry about where my friends and family get food from. The scope of that project would be insane (and not to mention socially awkward).
** This seems to happen to me an inordinate percentage of the time.

SU Labs Corporate Membership
Driving disruptive innovation in large organizations
SU Labs gives large organizations the space, tools, guidance and inspiration to reimagine and reinvent their future.
SU Labs is home to both permanent and pop-up (temporary) innovation labs designed to immerse small entrepreneurial teams from large organizations in SU and Silicon Valley to drive disruptive innovation by moving quickly from ideas to prototypes.
Contact us for more information at [email protected]READ BROCHURE
Founding & Current Members
We help members:
Tackle challenges in existing strategic focus areas and identify new opportunities in areas not currently in your view
Experiment with emerging technologies to discover what's relevant before they're ubiquitous and it's too late
Connect to entrepreneurs and experts to spark new ideas, facilitate prototyping and accelerate time-to-market
Develop intrapreneurs into impactful change agents with entrepreneurial muscle and a network of fellow instigators
Our Approach
We practice a 3 phases approach to address challenges and opportunities at SU Labs. This approach integrates divergent and convergent thinking to both generate and prioritize ideas that have potential relevance to proposed challenges. Member teams will continually cycle through discovery and definition activities throughout the year.
Understand the drivers and implications of today's accelerating pace of change. Push beyond business-as-usual thinking through exposure to other fields, drawing connections between seemingly unrelated ideas.
Identify and evaluate disruptive innovation opportunities in both existing and new strategic focus areas. Establish a portfolio of nearer- and longer-term smart bets.
Bring ideas to life through rapid prototyping and iteration. Gain skills and build partnerships (e.g. startups, vendors) to create proofs-of-concept and accelerate time-to-market.
We've built a toolkit to help our members begin to tackle their design and innovation challenges. We also work with members to design and experiment new ways to approach innovation.
- Anti-Disruption Workshop
- Learning Journeys
- Tech Sprints/Tech Mashups
- Science Fiction Prototyping
- Impact Journey
- Open Ideation
- Design Thinking Workshops
- Biomimicry Blitz
- Gallery Walks
- Tech Scouting
What kind of company is a great fit for Corporate Membership?
Rather than pursue a single company profile, we seek a diverse community of organizations in order to deliver maximum value to members. Some of the criteria we use to evaluate prospective members include:
- Strong senior executive support (ideally a direct line to a CXO)
- Permission to operate with a high degree of autonomy
- Interested in exploring disruptive spaces at their industry's edge
- Actively looking at growth opportunities 5-10 years out
- Committed to doing good in the world (corporate social responsibility)
- Willing to collaborate with non-competing organizations to learn and move forward, faster
Do companies need to be of a certain size, geography, sector or status to be accepted?
We consider large organizations from across the globe, including for-profits, nonprofits, government agencies, NGOs, country/state/city governments and academic institutions.
How are members staffing their office at Singularity University?
Onsite staff typically come from R&D, new product development, innovation or insights/foresight teams. Ideally, they're comprised of forward-thinking individuals who are organizationally savvy, well-connected, discovery-driven and in a position to influence the strategic direction of their organization.
Can we participate for less than one year?
We will consider terms under one year (minimum one quarter); however, to reap the full benefits of the Corporate Membership teams, members should spend sufficient time immersed in our unique community which is currently best accessed on campus.
Is residence at Singularity University a membership requirement?
We believe members should reside at Singularity University full-time. That said, the inability to relocate staff shouldn't be a deal-breaker and we will work to accommodate your needs.
"The average lifespan of a company listed in the S&P 500 has decreased from 67 years in the 1920's to 15 years today." —Richard Foster, Yale University

Secrets of Success
Getting Over Myself
Monday, April 22, 2013
I have to say I've been working out for about two months and I still can't really say I like it. I like that I'm doing it, but I don't really love the experience. One of the things that gets in the way of my joy of exercise is self-consciousness.
Self-consciousness can be an excuse for me to avoid pretty much any kind of exercise, if I let it. It's a mix of irrational fears and a few bad experiences that lead to a lot of negative thinking for me when I am exercising... one "nice running, Jello" as I sweat past someone on the sidewalk or even the occasional "I have a way you can burn off some calories baby" makes me imagine that everyone is thinking horrible things about me while I work out... the deepest darkest thoughts I have is that they think I'm going to break the equipment I'm using, that I am disgusting and sweaty, that I should do exercise that involves less jiggling, or even just thinking that I have a really long road ahead of me. And so, I vastly prefer to be alone while I'm working out. Unfortunately, that isn't the best option for my motivation and accountability!
The fact is that my fears don't reflect the reality of what is going on in peoples' minds. They are my own negative thoughts, blamed on other people. Of course, as we all witness from time to time, some people do think awful things about others (and even say it out loud), but allowing those few people to control the way we think about ourselves is not productive. It is also not accurate. I am not giving any weight to the kind thoughts and encouragement that are all around me as I stay on my healthy path. They are here, online, they are in my fitness classes from teachers and participants, from my coworkers, from my family, and, likely, from strangers that will never say anything to me at all.
After all, when I see someone working hard in the gym or on a run, am I thinking about how gross they look, or how they have no business in stretch pants? No! I feel so proud and happy for them, and so impressed that they're out and active. (Often I'm also wondering where they got their awesome run jacket or workout tee, too!) I'm sending them only positive thoughts. It is HARD to get up and out and do this. So thank you for getting up and out and showing me how it's done.

Giant Pandas have a special significance for World Wildlife Federation (WWF). It has adopted the endangered animals Panda as its logo, since its conception in 1961. Today, the WWF logo is recognized worldwide as a universal symbol for conservation movement.
About Pandas
Pandas are a rare breed of the bear family, and are found in the Gansu, Shaanxi, and Sichuan provinces of Peoples Republic of China. There are only 2,500 mature Pandas alive in the wilderness.
Black and white patches on the body of Giant Pandas make them look cute. A mature Panda weighs between 200-300 pounds. They can grow up to six feet in length. The average life span of a Panda is unknown, but they usually live up to 20 years in captivity.
Causes of Endangered Animals Panda
The decreasing numbers of endangered animals Panda have alarmed the conservationists. Habitat loss is the major cause for the endangerment of Pandas. The expansion of human population and the need of vast tracts of land for farming have led to large-scale deforestation. This human activity has destroyed the natural habitat of endangered animals Panda, and made them homeless.
Another reason for the declining numbers of endangered animals Panda is their low reproductive rate. Female Pandas have a reproductive cycle of about only five days in a year. Their mating season is between March and May, and the gestation period ranges from 90 to 180 days. They generally litter a single baby. If twins are born, only one survives because mother Panda cannot produce enough milk to raise two cubs.
Poaching is yet another reason, which has made Pandas endangered animals. They are poached for their skin, which has a great value in the international market. The soft skin of Pandas is used for making bags, and is sold for thousands of dollars. Although poaching is restricted and illegal, it goes on relentlessly because big money is involved in this unfair business.
Diet of Pandas
Pandas generally feed themselves on bamboos and shoots of the plants. Bamboo is their favorite food. A Giant Panda eats bamboos twelve hours a day, and are nicknamed "bamboo bear". Although their diet is mainly vegetarian, they eat meat of birds, rats, and carrion.
Conservation of Pandas
Pandas are the world's most adored endangered animals, and have been legally protected. International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has listed Giant Panda as an endangered animal. Moreover, WWF has also categorized the Giant Pandas as endangered animals, and has taken the social responsibility to conserve them. It has started an adoption program with an aim to conserve the endangered animals.
The Chinese government has initiated steps to restore the population of Pandas. It has created twelve bamboo flourishing nature preserves for conservation of the endangered animals Panda. Moreover, a grassland corridor has been marked by the Chinese government for the free movement and conservation of Pandas.
Panda has recently gained prominence with the Chinese government. Nowadays, a large number of coins in China bear images of Panda. It is an initiative of the Chinese government to spread awareness about the endangered animals Panda.
Therefore, the importance of endangered animals Panda has been realized. It is necessary to continue with our efforts to save them from becoming extinct.

There's no denying that the polar vortex that has blanketed much of the country has made things uncomfortable to say the least. But once you're safely inside, precautionary measures should be taken to save your skin! These super-skin-savers will help your dermis feel like it's downright balmy outdoors instead of frosty beyond belief.
Dry air can dehydrate your skin, so when you return home, hop in a warm shower and reach for Dr. Teal's Olive Oil Bath & Body Treatment ($9). Rich with Olive Oil and Aloe Vera the formula nourishes skin and leaves a shimmery finish. Super ingredients Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E help to soften and condition leaving your skin soft and refreshed.
Moisturizers are key when it's this cold outside. They help your skin stay hydrated and silky smooth. Post shower, be sure to immediately apply moisturizer to seal off any off any open pores and in any moisture. The Soothing Moisturising Cream from Jurlique combines
Calendula harvested on the South Australian Jurlique farm, together with Evening Primrose, Macadamia, Rose Hip and Avocado Oils, to give optimum hydration and skin barrier protection benefits.
Remember to slip on socks, or even gloves, to get maximum moisturizing results from your lotions and potions. And bundle up! It's cold out there.

Akron's Trouble Books merges synthesizers, simple lyrics and do-it-yourself home recording into a strange, satisfying mix.
They've performed at boat parties in France and clubs in Berlin and Madrid, but Keith Freund and Linda Lejsovka still record their adventurous, ambient-pop music at the Highland Square apartment they call home.
The Akron-based husband-and-wife duo known as Trouble Books launched their experimental music group five years ago when they first used a series of effects pedals to manipulate guitar, cello, bass, drums, synthesizer and clarinet into ethereal electronic landscapes and captured them on an eight-track cassette recorder. Those sessions ultimately grew into the band's first full-length album, The United Colors of Trouble Books.
The mix of droning yet melodic music and simple vocals garnered attention from National Public Radio and led to a deal with Luxembourg-based Own Records for international distribution. Trouble Books released its second full-length album, Gathered Tones, in March.
"If an alien listened to pop music in the last 50 years, he'd think that life is filled with constant falling in love, breaking up or obsessing about death," jokes Freund, who writes about seemingly mundane occurrences: the panic of accidentally leaving a space heater running unattended, the sounds of street sweepers in the early morning or walking past the LED lights of a massive new parking garage.
It may seem strange subject matter, but when accompanied by a glittering sea of synth swooshes, daily life becomes a dreamscape. "Our music is like a cozy day inside some super strange house," Freund says.
He and Lejsovka have also been helping other Akron musicians embrace a do-it-yourself approach to recording. The couple and about 10 friends in the neighborhood collaborate on one another's music projects, which are released by Trouble Books' upstart independent label, Bark and Hiss Records.
"In Akron, you have this space to do whatever you want," Freund says. "It's small enough where people really encourage each other."

The Whiskey Daredevils
Introducing the Whiskey Daredevils
(Knock Out Records)
Cross Johnny Cash with the Ramones and you end up with the Whiskey Daredevils. Whether the quartet is slinging cowboy songs about being on the wrong side of the law or kissing a girl with a moustache, the band's fun, no-frills rock distills to disc quite nicely.
Trisha O'Brien
Out of a Dream
Cleveland native Trisha O'Brien puts her spin on 14 standards with an intimacy and power as alluring as the love stories about which she sings. Backed by a four-piece group of musicians that includes jazz pianist Shelly Berg, O'Brien's interpretations soar.
Carlos Jones and the P.L.U.S. Band
Leave a Trail
(Little Fish Records)
Carlos Jones' new 12-song release is packed with lilting rhythms and lush harmonies that show why he's been our island connection for years. Songs such as "Leave a Trail" and "Catcha Falling Star" may channel the spirit of Bob Marley, but Jones' brand of roots reggae is all his own.

The Arizona Department of Health Services and hospitals across the state are working to reduce the time it takes to get newborn screening blood samples to the state lab in downtown Phoenix.
Hospitals are required by Arizona administrative code to send a blood sample for testing within 24 hours or the next working day after the sample is collected, which is usually within 24 to 48 hours of birth. The Arizona Republic reported in December that about 33 percent of blood samples collected at 17 of 42 Arizona hospitals in 2012 took five days or longer to arrive at the state lab, past the acceptable three- to four-day range.
State Health Director Will Humble set a goal to achieve by July 1: getting 95 percent of newborn screening samples arrive at the state lab within three days. Humble has since made resources and staff available, and set up an internal task force to develop a plan to decrease the delays.
ADHS is providing more training through webinars and on-site visits for hospital staff, said Ward Jacox, assistant bureau chief at the state laboratory. The department plans to launch a peer-to-peer website by the end of this month for hospitals to compare their progress in sending in screening samples.
The department is helping to reduce barriers for hospitals to meet Humble's goal of reducing the delays, Jacox said.
ADHS also is evaluating alternative options for its existing courier service for hospitals to submit samples to the lab, to help hospitals get the samples delivered on time. The current daily overnight shipping service is included in every hospital's newborn-screening fees.

IT'S LIKE A TRIP AROUND THE GLOBE: a night in Hong Kong, an afternoon in India, tea in England, dinner in France. The 34th Cleveland International Film Festival takes over Tower City Cinemas March 18-28 with a mix that leans heavily international. "We're probably, going to have more countries represented than ever before," says artistic director Bill Guentzler. Out of about 150 feature-length films, "I'd say probably 100 will be in a foreign language." Based on Guentzler's recommendations, we've mapped out a globe-spanning itinerary for you, no passport required.

With bidders participating from 20 nations, RM Auctions sale of the Bruce Weiner Microcar Museum turned into a global car-collecting feeding frenzy that produced more than $9.1 million in sales and made a folly of pre-event estimates.
Weiner spent nearly two decades finding the best examples of the small vehicles that put Europe and Japan back on wheels after World War II and his work was appreciated to the point that several cars drew bids that tripled the pre-auction estimates.
The top-dollar sale was $322,000 for a 1958 F.M.R. Tg 500 "Tiger," considered the rarest of the Messerschmitt-built cars and the fastest of all microcars with a top speed of 78 mph. The "world's smallest production car," a 1964 Peel P50, went for $120,750.
"In terms of its diversity, international interest and prices realized, the Bruce Weiner Microcar Museum sale was truly unprecedented," said Alain Squindo, RM vice president. "With many items offered for the first time in auction history, collectors reacted with enormous enthusiasm... resulting in spirited bidding and prices frequently exceeding their estimates. It definitely set a new benchmark for this type of private collection sale."
A dozen of the small cars sold for $100,000 or more, and there was high demand as well for the small-car automobilia Weiner collected in his travels. A Rustler Used Cars sign and a "Rocket Space Ranger" kiddie ride each sold for $44,850.
Second time around a charm again for Bonhams
Bonhams inaugural classic car auction in Arizona in 2012 sold only 40 vehicles and generated less than $6 million. But this year it came back with 92 sales for nearly $13 million.
The story was similar for Bonhams with its classic motorcycle auction in Paris. The first event -- in 2011 -- did about half-a-million dollars in business. But the auction house was back in Paris earlier this month and posted an 87-percent sell through with total sales of more than $1.1 million. The top sale was nearly $54,000 for a 1968 Egli-Vincent 998cc racer.
The motorcycle sale followed Bonhams' more than $13 million classic car sale in Paris.
Petersen museum celebrates Corvettes, fins and women
The Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Chevrolet Corvette with 'Vettes old and new March 1-2. Those attending will be the first on the West Coast to see the 2014 seventh-generation Corvette. Also on display will be the original 1953 EX-122 Motorama Corvette, the 156 SR2 experimental Corvette race car, the 1959 Corvette Italia with bodywork by Scaglietti, a 1963 Grand Sport, the 1964 "World's Fair" Corvette and a 1968 built-for-Bonneville "Sundowner."
A panel of racers will talk about Corvettes on the track Friday at 2 p.m. A Friday night gala will feature Kirk Bennion, exterior design manager for the 2014 Corvette. The Corvette day car show on Saturday runs from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. and will include the featured cars (which will remain for a special display at the museum through March) as well as dozens of other Corvettes and will feature a Corvette restoration seminar at 10:30 a.m.
"Women's Day at the Petersen" is March 11 and will focus on hands-on training in car care and maintenance.
The Petersen also has opened its "Fins: Form Without Function" exhibition, which runs through February 2, 2014. The exhibit looks at the post-WW2 fascination with the jet age and the way car designers took cues from the air to the highway.
"Fins have an interesting history in that everyone knows about them, but no one is quite sure of the specifics," said museum curator Leslie Kendall. "The tailfin design, which is widely credited to General Motor's design chief, Harley Earl, is most frequently associated with the 1950s, though early designs began showing up as early as the late 1930s and early 1940s. While the design had no real function aside from aesthetics, tailfins were well received in the United States and their popularity expanded worldwide."

LeMay museum accepts Buick prototype, Ridler winner
LeMay -- America's Car Museum -- in Tacoma, Washington, has announced the donation to its collection of the Ridler Award-winning Ferrambo and the 1964 Buick Wildcat concept car.
The Ferrambo is part-1960 Rambler, part-Ferrari and won the top honors at the Detroit Autorama in 2008. The Wildcat was designed by General Motors as a possible Corvette-based car for Buick and carries a 401 Nailhead V8 engine and shows 3,893 miles on its odometer.
Is this the coolest venue yet for a cars and coffee?
Cars and coffee-themed car shows are commonplace around the country -- for example, there's one the first Saturday of each month in Scottsdale, Arizona -- but the one scheduled for 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. March 9 may be able to claim "best venue" honors because it's being held on the grounds that the following day will host the annual Amelia Island concours d'elegance.
"Fro the moment we created 'The Amelia,' there's been a demand to expand the scope of the show," said concours founder Bill Warner, who started what is now a world-class concours in 1996.
For 2013, that expansion includes the cars and coffee format where local car clubs will display their rides alongside the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette and other late-model exotics from automakers around the globe.

Car Guy Tour has father/son theme
Frank Mandarano has been organizing his annual Car Guy Tour of Italy for many years but hopes to have as many father/son teams on the trip September 7-18. The tour will visit the Ferrari factory and new museum as well as other venues, including the Formula One race weekend at Monza.
"I am encouraging Father/Sons to join me on this year's Tour," Mandarano said. "Of course everyone else is invited as well, but over the last couple of years several father/son, and one father/daughter, teams have come on the Tour.
"I did it last year with my son Tony, who had just graduated from USD, and we had a great time. It was an excellent bonding experience for the two of us and created some great memories that will last a lifetime."

Mentoring lasts a lifetime
By Pat Russo, Superintendent, Henrico County Public Schools 02/23/11
Dear Henrico Citizens,
Public schools across the country are charged by businesses, parents, and communities at large to produce well rounded graduates that possess the skills required to face the challenges of the future. It is a tall order but one that must be taken seriously to ensure that the citizens of tomorrow have the self-confidence and life skills necessary to succeed in their personal and professional lives. In an effort to provide as many positive experiences as we can
during the adolescent years, Henrico County Public Schools is committed to partnering with adults across the greater Richmond Metropolitan area to provide role models for students in and out of the classroom setting.
In January 2009, the Henrico County School Board challenged a committee comprised of school system professionals from a variety of areas to review current mentoring programs within the school division. The committee was asked to make recommendations on how to improve and enhance those efforts. A survey was initiated by the Superintendent to all elementary, middle and high school principals in the school system and from this data a matrix of "mentoring" practices was developed and presented to the committee. Upon assessment of all survey results, it became evident that there were various models of mentoring practices implemented in Henrico County Public Schools, ranging from peer mentoring to tutoring to community-based mentoring.
In an effort to support existing programs as well as to develop new initiatives, the mentoring committee made six recommendations:
• Provide $100,000 to develop and improve mentoring programs in our schools,
• Target the 7th, 8th & 9th grade student population,
• Assign a district-wide coordinator who would administer all mentor programs in Henrico County Public Schools,
• Identify a school-based mentoring coordinator or committee who would be responsible for monitoring these services at their school,
• Provide professional development for schools, and
• Identify, solicit, investigate, and tap into the talent of baby boomers, retirees, businesses and foundation partnerships, faith based organizations, universities, public servants and school division personnel to mentor as part of their responsibilities.
Based upon recommendations from the mentoring committees, the Director of Nontraditional Programs was asked to develop a plan to implement the Henrico HEROES (Helpers Engaged In Reaching Our Excelling Schools) program. This effort targets the development or enhancement of school based mentoring programs that include teacher mentoring, student mentoring and community based mentoring potentially supporting more than 11,000 Henrico County Public School students.
Seventeen secondary schools have been awarded funding to establish mentoring programs that would provide role models who are committed to developing supportive relationships with our students. There is substantial research to support that students who have supportive mentors make considerable improvements in overall academic performance. The key to this success is that a trusting relationship is established, nurtured, and continued on a long-term basis.
Henrico County schools has answered the call and created diverse programs that provide opportunities for volunteers from all walks of life. The charge is now up to you as members of our Henrico community to seriously consider this opportunity to volunteer and commit to mentor one of our youth. It is a volunteer opportunity that will change your life and expand horizons for a young person.
Dr. Pat Russo,
Superintendent of Henrico County Public Schools

On a busy strip of McDowell Rd. in Scottsdale sits the El Dorado Bar & Grill http://eldorado-bar-grill.com/. With new owners, Doug and Joy Brackin, this bar and grill serves cheap drinks to those that live in the area along with bikers out for a ride. They also have a menu that offers good food at very reasonable prices. On the menu are 5 burgers ($6.50 - $7.50).
The Brackin burger ($7.50) is prepared on the flat top griddle to lock in the juices and comes topped with a green chile, grilled onions, pepperjack cheese and a horseradish sauce. Lettuce, tomato and pickle chips come served as a garnish on the top half of the toasted bun. After the first bite you know this burger is something special with the larger green chile draping the burger giving a it a little kick then added to by horseradish sauce that kicks it up a notch. The burger was cooked to my requested medium rare leaving some of the fatty flavor. On the side you have a choice of fries, potato salad, a side salad, cole slaw or cottage cheese.
The Brackin burger turns out to be a great burger especially when you consider it's only $7.50 with a side included. When accompanied with a cheap drink to wash it down you can easily get in and out of there for under $20 which is hard to do in other parts of Scottsdale.
El Dorado Bar & Grill opens daily from 6 a.m. - 2 a.m. and is at 8708 E. McDowell Rd. Scottsdale 85257. (480)945-2606

"Innovation is a challenging business."
The center's research provides novel insights into business models for translational science and solutions that integrate scientific and technological progress, product development, business strategy, and public policy for value creation.
Despite the many insights and inventions arising from basic science, the translation of these advances into public value has lagged. There is a critical need for business models that can more efficiently translate scientific discoveries into novel products, improved public health, sustainable practices, job growth and economic gains. Our work integrates a deep understanding of science, technology, business and public policy to improve the efficiency of this porcess.
Message From Our Director
This Center for Integration of Science and Industry is an outgrowth of my longstanding interest, and that of the National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), in finding ways to accelerate the translation of scientific discoveries for public value. In our society, there is an implied social compact in which the public supports basic science, and commercial enterprise is responsible for translation of scientific discoveries into products and value to the public. In the classical path for translational science, commercial enterprise has the responsibility for raising the capital required to develop a product, fashioning the fruits of science into a finished product, establishing scalable manufacturing capabilities, achieving regulatory approvals, and finally establishing a marketing, distribution, and support network for the product. By translating basic science into approved and marketed products, the commercial enterprise is expected to provide value to the public in the form of the material or personal benefits that accrue from the use such products, jobs, financial returns to individual and institutional shareholders, and economic growth.
Objective analysis suggests that this path to value creation is inefficient. In the biopharmaceutical industry, there has been no improvement in the number of products coming to market or the time/cost required for product development, despite radical advances in molecular biology, chemistry, and genomics. In agricultural science, it is estimated that there is a 30 year lag between scientific discoveries and corresponding crop improvements. In energy, research in distributed generation and alternative energy technologies have not provided products that can compete effectively with fossil fuels. In the workplace, advances in automation and information technology have produced proportionally smaller improvements in worker productivity, something that is known as the "IT Paradox."
Looking at the big picture, while scientific and technological progress is classically described as being exponential, value creation has generally been a slow, linear process. That is not to deny that there have been salient successes; that certain dread diseases are now curable, that there are measurable improvements in health, agriculture, energy production, and the workplace, that investors have often made money investing in technology, that jobs have been created, and that technology has been a critical driver of economic growth; only that we should be able to do better, and that the public deserves greater value from their investment in science.
Our expectation is that better integration of scientific progress and business practice, in all their manifold complexity, holds the key to improving the efficiency of translating science for public benefit and tangible value. We hope that the Center for Integration of Science and Industry will become a globally respected forum for thought leadership and the exchange of ideas among stakeholders in technically-informed enterprise and translational management; a Center the produces state-of-the art research, position papers, and educational programs; and a Center that provides value-added services to industry and - by improving the efficiency of translational science - value to the public.
Fred Ledley, MD
Director of the Center for Integration of Science and Industry

The Tampa Yankees were at Jackie Robinson Ballpark on Thursday evening to begin a three game series against the Daytona Cubs. LHP Dan Camarena (ERA 5019) took the start for the T-Yanks in this Game 1 matchup as he looked for his first win of the season after a shaky 0-2 start.
The T-Yanks got on the board first with a RBI double by Pete O'Brien. With a 1-0 Yanks lead Camarena was able to get himself out of some trouble to end the first. Jake Cave was able to give some run support as he hit his first triple of the season with Zach Wilson on base. Wilson wasn't done just yet when he hit a RBI single in the third to send Eric Jagielo home to put Tampa up 3-0.
Camarena allowed a homerun by Daytona's Tim Saunders on a fly ball on left to start the 3rd. With a 3-1 game, the T-Yanks were able to bounce back as Dante Bichette hit his 6th double of the season on a ground ball to right field at the top of the inning. After a pitching change by the Cubs, O'Brien then walked putting runners on 1st and 2nd. Angelo Gumbs then singled making it bases loaded no outs. After Wilson grounded out, the Yanks were able to get one run in by Bichette to extend their lead to a 4-1 game.
Camarena continued to hang in there as the offense cushioned their lead even more with another triple by Cave. But, it was the 6th inning that would end the night for the lefty. Camarena pitched 5 1/3 innings allowing 4 hits and 4 runs; striking out 3. With a 5-4 ballgame, LHP Evan Rutckyj (ERA 0.00) the pitched the next 1 2/3 innings allowing just 1 hit and keeping a steady pace for the T-Yanks.
In the top of the 8th, RHP Phil Wetherell (ERA 0.00) took over pitching duties for Tampa. Wetherell allowed the tying run by the Cubs in the bottom of the 8th and would then be replaced by RHP Kyle Haynes (ERA 2.57) in the 9th inning. Wetherell finished the night allowing 2 hits and 1 run.
With the Yanks unable to pull out a run in the 9th, the game then headed to extra innings.
Haynes pitched a solid two innings allowing just 1 hit and secured his first victory of the season with the 6-5 win. Rutckyj earned the hold (H,1) and Wetherell was charged with the blown save (BS,1).
The Tampa Yankees will take on the Daytona Cubs in the second game of the series on Friday evening at 7:05pm.

Napoleon's Guard Infantry (2)
Not available
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
moreThis title looks at Napoleon's Middle and Young Guard infantry. The seniority of Guard infantry was only established definitely in 1812 by the Guard's chief of personnel, Courtois. The title 'Young Guard' was assigned to the newly-raised regiments in 1809, but the term 'Middle Guard' came into use about 1811. From the beginning the newer guard regiments were committed to action first, the Old Guard, as Napoleon wrote, 'being so precious, one fears to expose them'; thus the Fusiliers-Chasseurs distinguished themselves at Hilsberg whilst the rest of the Guard was kept in reserve. In 1808 the Fusiliers went to Spain, serving at the Madrid rising, Medina and Guadalajara. Philip Haythornwaite examines these troops in a detailed text backed by numerous illustrations including eight full page colour plates by Bryan Fosten. less

I am looking for a IWB rig for my 3" GP 100 with full lug barrel. Could any of you leather craftsman assist me?
Well, personally I cant. But anyone with a K frame 3" mold or the GP can help you out. Shouldnt be to hard in all honesty.
Shoot well.

The real interesting thing is when I was rookie and packed my first issue piece (Model 10 Smith) I dreamed of something exotic like a Model 39 Smith! As I grow older I find that wheelguns in the correct caliber (like 357 Mag) are more desirible to me from a reliability stanpoint and ammunition performance perspective.
It gets tricky when the weapon you want accessories for isn't the latest, greatest thing to hit the market.
I wanted an owb for my 2.5" K-frame M66 (now discontinued). I found exactly ONE holster in my favorite gunshop/range ... not one type, one holster period. It's a Don Hume JIT: Functions somewhat like a Yaqui slide where the muzzle and front sight are exposed, paper thin single layer leather and rough side in so that bits of leather are always snagged in the front sight when drawn.
I'd considered tracking down a better holster for it but I've basically decided to give it limited carry time and use it primarily for a bedside weapon. I'll keep using my 642 as primary for now and start saving us for a 5" SA Milspec ... THAT will get a quality leather rig and be my new primary.
CrossBreed IWB's and SOB's are available for your revolver.
you can find out more at
Kevin shows the Ruger SP 101 on his list of guns he makes holsters for. It may not be a 3" barrel. I am going through much of the same thing for my S&W M 60 3" .357. It has a high front sight, and a full length underlug. The holsters made for the 2" J frames will not fit.
Kevin is looking for a M60 3' to use as a pattern. If you have not contacted him why not give him a call. He does fine work.
The SP is a 5 shot and the GP is a 6 shot, like a J and K frame S&W....they arent compatible.
Shoot well.
Thanks, Eric.
Check out Bulman Gunleather, he lists a 3" GP 100 on his Available list.

BioE and Phillips Plastics will together develop and commercialize stem cell therapeutics for orthopedic applications. These stem cell therapeutics will consist of BioE's Multi-Lineage Progenitor Cell™ (MLPC) stem cells derived from human umbilical cord blood and Phillips Plastics' growth structures.
"The convergence of medical technologies in the form of biodevice combinations has enormous potential in the orthopedic sector," points out Michael Haider, president and CEO for BioE.
In early development studies, the MLPC has differentiated into osteoblasts and chondrocytes along with numerous other cell and tissue precursors, BioE reports. Phillips Plastics is developing custom structures to enhance the growth of these cells from the MLPC.
"These therapeutics could lead to treatments for osteoporosis and bone fractures of the hip, spine, wrist, arm, and leg as well as remedies for injured or deteriorated joints throughout the body," Haider adds.

A literature review of the forms of age discrimination: an economic perspective
Long Description for Figure 6
Variance-based discrimination
Figure 6 illustrates possible distributions of the job performance of younger and older workers using two bell curves with normal distributions. The bell curve for older workers presents the hypothesis that their job performance has a smaller variance but same average as older workers. Older workers have the same average job performance as younger workers. The higher variance in the job performance of older workers implies that the two tails of their job performance in the bell curve distributions are fatter to account for a larger number of high performing workers in the right tail and workers whose performance is falling away in the left tail.

If you're looking to adopt or place your child for adoption, you need an attorney who will ensure that your interests are protected. Today, adoptions can occur locally, regionally, nationally or internationally. Dealings across state lines or international borders are common. You need someone who can look out for you and make sure that often complicated adoption laws and regulations are followed.
John Greene, of Cohen & Greene, P.A. is an expert in adoption. An attorney for more than 31 years, he has focused his law practice on adoption for the past 15 years. No matter whether you're a Maryland resident seeking to adopt locally, or a resident of another state dealing with a birth mother who lives in Maryland, you need an attorney knowledgeable about the state's adoption laws.
John Greene has a long track record of working with other adoption attorneys throughout the nation to ensure that adoptions proceed smoothly. He is one of an elite group of attorneys who are recognized nationally for their knowledge, experience, ethics and devotion to adoption.
It is always exciting to attend "adoption" day! Over the years I have been blessed with attending hundreds adoption days all over the State of Maryland in many different courts. The way adoption finalizations are conducted is different from court to court.&nb....more

Our edibles connoisseur reveals her favorites from among the various high-quality confections entered in Denver's first annual US Cannabis Cup.
Overall, the level of professionalism and quality of the edibles in Colorado as represented by this field of 23 entries was extremely high. Creators of these treats are stepping up their game as the cannabis industry goes legit, and for the first time since our stateside Cannabis Cup contests began in 2010, every single item displayed lab-tested information. Knowing the precise level of THC in milligrams makes it much easier for the consumer to decide how much to eat, since the dose for an average human is about 20 to 25 milligrams.
Another trend in Colorado that I noticed is the upward creep of THC levels in edibles. Some entries topped out at upwards of 300 milligrams, so it's vital to cut those into small pieces before consuming. The most popular entries among the judges were those that allowed an effective dose of 20 to 50 mg in a satisfying portion size.
Here are my favorite, highly recommended edibles from the great state of Colorado!
First Place:
Bhang "Ice" Peppermint Chocolate Bar by The Healing Leaf LLC Master chocolatier Scott Van Rixel scores another win with the Bhang bar, which is tasty, consistent and easy to titrate for any patient. The 180 mg dosage spread out over 10 servings and the complete nutritional information on the package make this the most professional product available. High-quality ingredients and excellent flavor combined with cannabis create a confection that is a must-have for any chocolate lover.
Second Place:
Peanut Butter Buddha by Incredibles "Peanut Butter. Pretzel. Nirvana." is the tag line on the package, with a cartoon laughing Buddha holding a giant peanut and a pretzel. This bar contains 200 mg THC and the tamper-proof package recommends consuming it in 6 servings, which is good advice. A delicious, professional product that brings a popular flavor combination of chocolate, peanut butter and pretzels to patients, this bar was universally popular with the judges.
Third Place:
Walnut Joy by Good Chemistry Inspired by the flavors of an Almond Joy candy bar, this treat from Mountain Medicine is a coconut filled, chocolate covered patty, topped with a walnut and executed wonderfully. This is a near-perfect product, with excellent packaging and label information. Active cannabis is listed at 224 mg, and this is slightly confusing because THC should be listed separately from CBD or other cannabinoids. Dosage advice is given as "1/2 unit to start and as needed," which is OK, but a 100 mg dose to start is still too much. Start with a quarter or eighth of a piece and enjoy!
The Rest of the Field
Discreet Treats Strawberry Cheesecake
Professionally presented in a clear clamshell package, this slice of cheesecake is bright pink and loaded with real strawberries. The package displays clear "medical marijuana" warnings and disclaimers, while lab testing info reveals a THC content of 250 mg. However, no serving size information is given to let a patient know how much to eat. 250 mg is much more than one serving – it could be as many as 20 servings! And it would be easy to eat too much because this is a delicious, rich cheesecake. With a lower dosage and more serving size info, this would be a delightful edible to recommend to friends and family.
Dixie Colorado Bar
Fitting neatly in a small metal tin, this square bar fits in the palm of your hand and yet packs quite a wallop, with a listed THC content of 420 mg. It's a peanut butter bar coated in white and dark chocolate in a half-and-half decoration. The flavor is good, mostly peanut butter with a hint of cannabis. It's a big dose for such a small bar, and necessitates being cut up into small pieces before ingesting.
Incredibles Peach Dream
This is a peach-flavored bar of white chocolate, medicated with 100 mg of THC intended for four servings of 25 mg each. The ingredients list consists of only three items: white chocolate (which must have its own ingredients), medical marijuana, and organic peaches, although I doubt it's so simple to create these bars. In addition to the usual mandatory disclaimer, the small print states, "we have zero residual solvent in our extraction." While the packaging provides a lot of valuable info, what's missing is an overt "cannabis" label or leaf to help avoid accidental ingestion.
While I was initially skeptical of a peach-flavored candy bar, I was pleasantly surprised by the natural flavor of real peaches. Overall, I really appreciate this product and would happily recommend it, since it has the perfect combination of great taste, originality, clear and concise label information, and an appropriate dosage level.
Healthy Creation Edibles / River Rock present CBD Chocolate Torte
A small chocolate square that boasts a hefty dosage of 331.25 mg of THC and 192.6 mg of CBD. It's a delicious tasting torte, with a brittle chocolate shell covering a softer chocolate filling with a bit of jelly in the center. Judges appreciated the originality of this item, which used ingredients as diverse as pinot noir and pop rocks, which provided a bit of a surprise in your bite. And do take a tiny bite, since this is a very potent item! Some serving size advice would be appreciated along with the usual standard disclaimers.
Pink House Tincture Kit AM Tangerine Lemon Refresher & PM Eucalyptus Mint Relaxer
With an energizing daytime sativa tincture and a relaxing indica tincture, this set is a nice concept from Pink House. The sativa tincture is also mixed with tangerine, lemon, and wintergreen essential oils. The ingredients list also specifies 75% Super Silver Haze and 25% Headband, with about 420 mg per bottle, and 3 to 5 mg in each spray delivered sublingually. The alcohol in the tincture makes it sting a bit, and the mixing of citrus flavors with mint clashes a bit. I would have preferred a tincture flavored solely with tangerine and lemon.
The PM indica tincture specifies Oaksterdam OG as the strain used, and the flavors of eucalyptus and mint mesh a bit better together for a bracing spray of pure medicine in a discreet package, perfect for the patient on the go.
Standing Akimbo Disco Dome
"Handgrown Excellence" arrives in a small golden box that houses a dome-shaped truffle. It tastes similar to a Butterfinger candy bar, with crunchy toffee covered by a chocolate shell. Packaging states 100 mg active THC and 7 mg CBD. Ingredients include dark chocolate, peanut butter, piette fuientine, milk chocolate, and cocoa butter, but it's not clear which ingredient is infused with cannabis. The package lacks clear serving size instructions, and 100 mg of THC could be as much as 10 doses for a cannabis-naive person. Packaging also should be tamper-proof, and lack of an overt "cannabis" label means there is a good possibility of accidental ingestion. I split it into 4 quarters, and enjoyed a pleasant effect from approximately 25 mg.
Caramel Apple CBD Enriched Infused Sucker
This product contains 33 mg of THC and 17.5 mg of CBD in one small sucker, which is a nice dose for the average person. Caramel is melted to one side of the sucker, and the green apple hard candy side is dusted with cinnamon. The combined effect is something like a caramel apple, and it tastes pretty good. Label information is solid and this would be something I could recommend to a cannabis-naive person without hesitation.

IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde Welcomes the Eurogroup's Decision to Grant Financial Assistance to SpainPress Release No. 12/266
July 20, 2012
Ms. Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), made the following statement today on the decision by the Eurogroup to provide up to €100 billion in financial assistance to Spain to strengthen its financial institutions:
"We welcome the decision made today by the Eurogroup to grant financial assistance from the European Financial Stability Fund (EFSF) to Spain to recapitalize its banking sector. The recapitalization of weak banks and the other reforms attached to the agreement are consistent with the IMF's recommendations in the recent Financial Sector Stability Assessment (FSSA) and Concluding Statement of the Article IV Consultation mission. The implementation of these measures will contribute to significantly strengthen Spain's financial system, an essential step in restoring growth and prosperity in the country."

I have a G36. But what ever gun you train with will work.

I have a G36. But what ever gun you train with will work.
This thread is from August of '09 and the OP hasn't been online since October...I think it's safe to say he's chosen his gun by now.
Personally my favorite compact .45 is a my bersa thunder .45 uc. Great small .45... full size .45 1911 all the way baby!
Colt Defender is my favorite
From your list I would pick the Kahr! But like stated earlier you prlly don't care
Sig Sauer makes a very nice 1911 and it is priced very competitively for what you get. You don't see too many around. It fits nicely with their .380 pocket pistol.
$1,300.00, and it reads like a custom made pistol. Sig quality is always very, very good.l
Hk usp
I'd be torn to choose between my HK compact 45 and my M&P compact 45. Both are totally reliable and very accurate. Hard to leave out my SIG P220 as a shooter or my Kahr PM45 for concealment.
I shot my new HK for the first time this week, and I'll have to say it's the best of my eight 45's. The P220 and M&P run a close second. I haven't shot the SIG 1911 C3, I bought last week, but I'm expecting good things from it too.
i have a taurus 45 acp and i trust it as much as i do my glock. Its not as accurate as the glock but i know without a doubt when i pull the trigger on the taurus it will go off, and in my opinion, as far as conceal guns, thats all a man can ask for!!!
I have a taurus pt145 and a taurus 24/7 oss. I also have a stoeger cougar .45. I love my 3 handguns. To my knowledge stoeger and beretta cougar's are the same tooling, but stoeger is cheaper. any opinions on any differences in regards to stoeger and beretta?
My Sig Sauer P220 compact is a great gun.
From your list: I have, and carry daily the Taurus pt145. It has been a flawless weapon and I stake my life on it. At under $350 it is the bargain here. I have only had one Taurus firearm that ever needed service and found their customer service excellent.I have the Xd, Colt 1911 officers model, along with various other handguns. But the PT145 is the best overall with 10+1 capacity 22oz, true double action trigger. 100% reliable.
Welcome to the forum!
Best if I know I'll be in a gunfight - HK45C
Easiest to carry - Kahr PM45
The one most often on my belt even though it's my cheapest 45 of twelve - Kahr CW45.
For me, it's the Glock 36. It's accurate, easy to hold and to control. It eats most anything I feed it. Your mileage may vary.
Message deleted - posted in wrong thread
Of the guns on your list, I have hands-on experience with the Kahr P-45 and the XD45 Compact.
The XD45 Compact is completely reliable and quite accurate. What it is not, is compact. The only difference between it and the the standard size XD is a shortened grip, which cuts magazine capacity to 10 rounds. It still has the 4" barrel. It is my personal favorite for concealed carry, but it is in no way comfortable (nothing is).
The P-45 I owned was very accurate, and almost comfortable to carry with a good hybrid (leather and kydex) IWB holster. It is not a pocket pistol, though, unless you wear loose clothing with big pockets. I swapped it off because I could conceal a Commander sized 1911 almost as easily, and preferred that platform.
I am eagerly awaiting the XD-s, a single stack that is gradually finding its way into the market, and should be similar to the Glock 36.
Only one I have is the PT145. I really like it, but from the range of comments it seems Taurus can be hit or miss when it comes to getting a good one.
I've been carrying this Kimber Ultra Carry II for a while now and it fits the bill perfectly for a CCW.
Sig Sauer 1911 C3 compact.

New England Patriots defensive end Rob Ninkovich is excited about the team adding Darrelle Revis. According to a report by ESPN on April 8, the defensive captain called Revis "the best corner in the game."
Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman may not be happy with Ninkovich's statement, but the defensive end has seen Revis up close and personal and is glad to have him on his team.
"We've got the best corner in the league coming in. That's always a good thing for a defensive end like myself, just give me a little bit more time [with tight coverage] and I'll be happy to use that."
Ninkovich echoed the excitement of his head coach Bill Belichick as well as other players on the defensive side with the surprise signing of Revis. The new Patriots cornerback will add to a complicated defense and make other players better.
"You can do whatever you want with him. You can put him on the best receiver, tight end, whoever, and say 'Hey, go cover this guy and he can do it.' Whenever you have a guy that talented, it's always great as far as defensive schemes and stuff like that."
Ninkovich hasn't personally gotten a chance to speak with Revis, but is looking forward to it when players show up for the voluntary offseason program, which begins the week of April 21.
The Patriots defensive end also expressed his desire to win and is appreciative of the additions the Patriots have made thus far. As an older player, he will be even more excited if and when the team adds some depth at defensive in via another free agent signing or in the upcoming draft.

Sterling College Teacher Education Program earns national accreditation
The Sterling Teacher Education Program at Sterling College announced Monday, Nov. 4, that it has received continued accreditation by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. According to NCATE, receiving continued accreditation means that the institution has met "rigorous standards set forth by the professional education community."
"The process for renewing accreditation is long and labor-intensive. Receiving this accredited status involved the efforts of the entire education department as well as faculty from the individual subjects in which our students can prepare for licensure. The leadership provided by Terri Gaeddert, Nancy Hicks and the education faculty made reaccreditation possible," said Dr. Gregory Kerr, vice president for academic affairs.
Gaeddert is chair of the Sterling College Department of Education, and Hicks is the department's administrative assistant responsible for organizing the multiple documents necessary for accreditation.
Sterling College is accredited to prepare candidates for licensure in art, biology, chemistry, elementary education, English, mathematics, music, speech and theatre, health and physical education, history and government. There are both campus-based and online delivery methods for some programs.
To earn reaccreditation, Sterling College underwent a self-study of six rigorous national standards, providing documentation on how STEP fulfills each requirement. This past winter, NCATE performed a site visit to evaluate the campus facilities and see the education program in action. They interviewed faculty, staff, clinical teachers and education professionals from schools around the area who work with candidates in the STEP program.
"We are blessed to work with wonderful teachers and educational professionals in this process of preparing the next generation of teachers," said Gaeddert. "The NCATE visit occurred during one of our blizzards this last winter. We appreciate everyone who worked with us to meet the requirements of the NCATE team in spite of the challenging conditions outside."
Sterling College received the maximum accreditation of seven years, and will undergo its next accreditation evaluation in 2020.
Sterling College is a Christ-centered, four-year college located in Sterling, Kan., with a mission to develop creative and thoughtful leaders who understand a maturing Christian faith. For more information, visit www.sterling.edu.

Random Acts of Kindness
RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS - March 3-9 is "Random Acts of Kindness Week" Surprised to find out there is a week dedicated to kindness? I have to admit I was, simply because it seemed so unnecessary. After all, don't most of us try to live our lives being kind to one another?
The sad fact is that this is not true for everyone. You only need to read a newspaper or watch the news to realize that there are many who do not live their lives with kindness in mind.
Have we forgotten how to be kind?
Recently, Meebal printed an article 'social networks: are we becoming less sociable?' in which the writer took a close look at the isolation today's media is creating. As a society we are choosing to interact with the outside world through texts and social outlets like Facebook and Twitter.
Personal contact is at a premium and I believe we have forgotten not only many of our social graces, but some of us have learned to be bullies because of the anonymity the internet provides. When this behavior continues to go unchallenged and unchanged, the nature of the individual becomes more brazen and less accepting of normal standards for conduct.
Relate this to children and studies have shown that since the widespread use of computers in schools and the home children have scored 40% lower on empathy tests from 2000 to 2009. An additional study has revealed a direct correlation between disinterest and a lack of emotional displays in children influenced by time spent interacting on social media.
As humans we are sensory beings and absorb within seconds subtle facial movements and voice inflections when speaking to someone face to face. This lack of personal contact has proven that without this stimulation we respond with less emotion, if at all.
There is hope: Kindness is a skill that can be taught
In one year, three schools of the same district began a "Kindness Education Program" for grades K-4, as part of a research study program. Through the use of movies, books, role-playing and discussions the children were taught appropriate responses, social skills and respect for others.
It wasn't long before the children were modeling kindness in the classroom and sharing how they used the skills they learned at home. At the end of the year, when it was time for final thoughts to be spoken and data to be analyzed it was no surprise to anyone that the program provided an increase in self-esteem, an awareness and respect for others, plus the motivation to intervene or improve most situations.
What was surprising is the fact that social standards were improved between all the children, and that there was an increase in academic performance. With the end result having such a positive impact, it was decided to continue the program.
That was five years ago and since that time the program has been implemented in grades 5-8 with continued success and is now implemented in many school systems across the country.
What about you?
I have been on the giving and receiving end of numerous acts of kindness and I am grateful for each one because they changed me. Read the following note and see if it doesn't make you feel good for both the giver and the receiver.
An act of kindness does not need to be this grand of a gesture to make a difference in someone's day. It is often the little things that mean the most. Having someone hold a door open, reach a box of cereal off a high shelf in the grocery store, or wipe the snow off your car in the parking lot.
These are a few of my own experiences and I am touched by each and every one. The person didn't know me, I did nothing to deserve their kindness, and they asked for nothing in return. It was a gift.
Will you observe "Random Acts of Kindness Week?"
I challenge you to try doing one act of kindness for someone, even yourself; one little act, every day. Be warned, it can be contagious and may become a way of life. Symptoms include feelings of happiness, excitement and brainstorming for new ideas.
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
¤ Share your smile
¤ Clean up the dishes from dinner
¤ Let your brother play your video game
¤ Leave your change in the vending machine/
¤ Allow someone to go ahead of you in traffic or in the grocery line
¤ Slip a note into your child's lunchbox or your partner's wallet
¤ Offer your seat
¤ Take some bakery to your local police or fire station
"Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love." Lao Tzu

The Purchase College School of Art+Design presents two visiting artist lectures in February. Installation artist Mika Rottenberg will speak on February 13. Painter Marilyn Minter will speak on February 20. The lectures will be presented in Room 1016 of the Art+Design Building at 6:30 PM and are free and open to the public. For more information, call 914-251-6750.
Purchase College, State University of New York, is located at 735 Anderson Hill Road, Purchase, N.Y.
Mika Rottenberg imagines systems of production whose functions are tied to those of the human body. She has created a number of ambitious video installations, along with photographs and drawings, in which the viewer partially enters the cramped and bizarre factory environments occupied by the women on screen. Rottenberg's actors perform seemingly futile tasks in the service of products whose use is unclear, as in the recent piece Dough, which depicts an elaborate process ending with shrink-wrapped lengths of dough and evaporated tears. Born in Buenos Aires, Rottenberg studied art and exhibited in New York and Israel before earning her M.F.A. from Columbia University in 2004. She continues to show internationally, and her work is included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, among others.
Marilyn Minter's images of glitz bordering on the grotesque are among the icons of contemporary photography and painting, most recently because of her much-reproduced contribution to the 2006 Whitney Biennial. But Minter's photographs and hyper-realistic paintings in layered enamel comprise a nearly thirty-year exploration of glamour as the surface of deeper social machinations. Since earning her M.F.A. from Syracuse University, she has received grants from the Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the New York Foundation for the Arts, and her work has been included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, among many other institutions. Her first monograph will be published in February of 2007.

On Friday afternoon, the former president of a Davis, Calif., Rottweiler rescue which recently came under scrutiny following the discovery of dead and starving dogs, was found dead at her home, reported Saturday's CBS Sacramento News.
Elaine Greenberg, 74, headed up Second Chance Rottweiler Rescue until a board member discovered severely neglected dogs at the property on July 23 and alerted the authorities; Greenberg was subsequently removed from her position as president.
On the rescue organization's website, Greenberg's possibly poor health, prior to her death, is referenced. The website described Greenberg's condition on the day that the board member visited the property in late July:
She did not look well when she finally emerged. In fact, she appeared to the volunteer (who is not a doctor) to have suffered some sort of medical issue, possibly a stroke or some sort of mental confusion. The volunteer noticed a dramatic change in Ms. Greenberg's appearance and demeanor. Because of his concern, the volunteer asked if he could take her to the hospital. Unfortunately, Ms. Greenberg declined this offer of help.
Greenberg was pronounced dead at her home in the 26000 block of County Road 96.
When authorities had initially responded to the call about potential neglect at Greenberg's property, they found three dead dogs and 11 dogs who were emaciated and dehydrated. The surviving dogs were taken under the wing of Rotts of Friends Animal Rescue, which is headed up by Renee Lancaster.
Prior story about the seizure of the dogs here.

Man Utd's defensive weakness sparking Ferguson's verbal fury
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is being driven round the bend, and according to reports the reason behind this is his team's defensive shortcomings this season.
First Ferguson railed against Swansea City's Ashley Williams for kicking a ball at striker Robin van Persie from close-range last weekend, claiming the United forward could have been killed, the Daily Mail reports.
Fergie than followed that on Wednesday by slating referee Mike Dean, assistant Jake Collin and fourth official Neil Swarbrick on the pitch for changing their minds over a Jonny Evans own goal, it reported.
On Friday, Ferguson blew his top at a press conference, directing an atrocious tongue-lashing at Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew over comments made by the Toons boss on Thursday, it added.
According to the paper, it is clear Ferguson is far from happy, despite his side's healthy lead at the top.
Those seeking the source of Ferguson's ire are likely to find it rooted in United's woeful defensive record this season, with 28 goals conceded at the halfway stage of the Premier League campaign, the paper added. (ANI)
