Gerodontology 2011; doi: 10.1111/j.1741-2358.2011.00528.x Nocturnal masseter electromyographic activity of complete denture wearers Objective: Collection of normative data on activity patterns of the masseter during sleep in elderly denture wearers by portable electromyography (EMG) recorders. Background: Complete denture wearers might suffer from orofacial pain caused by myoarthropathies of the masticatory system. Indeed, denture instability may precipitate parafunctional habits and consequently muscle soreness and/or temporomandibular pain. Materials and methods: We collected normative masseter EMG data during sleep in 15 complete denture wearers (five women, 10 men, 56-88 years) by portable recorders in their natural environment. Activity periods (AP) were signal portions including subthreshold intervals ≤5 s. Signal amplitude was expressed in per cent of maximum voluntary contraction (%MVC). For this reason, maximum bite force was assessed. Twenty age-matched dentate controls were also recorded for the maximum bite force. Results: We found 157.2 ± 86.5 AP per night, i.e. 24.0 ± 12.2 AP/h. Mean amplitude was 15.1 ± 4.3%MVC. AP lasted 6.8 ± 4.1 s, and their time integral was 126.3 ± 112.5%MVC•s. Maximum bite force was 116.8 ± 69.6 N in the edentulous, significantly lower than in controls (344.8 ± 150.4 N). Conclusions: Healthy complete denture wearers showed intermittent periods of nocturnal masseter activity of very low intensity and short duration.

Hockey Records Second Straight Victory Defeating Dartmouth, 4-0
Nov. 24, 2001
HANOVER, N.H. - Freshman Craig MacDonald (Canton, Mass.) scored two goals and senior goaltender Mike Johnson (Excelsior, Minn.) made 29 saves to lead the University of Massachusetts to a 4-0 non-conference victory over Dartmouth tonight in college hockey action at the Thompson Arena.
Freshman Craig MacDonald (Canton, Mass.) opened the scoring for the Minutemen at the 15:09 mark of the first period with a power play goal. Freshman Justin Rafferty (Clifton Park, N.Y.) moved the puck to junior forward Jimmy Callahan (Lexington, Mass.) behind the net. Callahan made a pass to MacDonald, who scored from just outside the crease. It was MacDonald's third goal of the season.
Massachusetts extended its lead to 3-0 with two second period goals. Senior Martin Miljko (Etobicoke, Ontario) netted the first on a wrist shot from just inside the blue line 1:59 into the period. Sophomore Thomas P?ck (Klagenfurt, Austria) and Rafferty assisted on the goal. MacDonald netted his second goal of the game when he deflected a Nick Kuiper (Beaconsfield, Quebec) shot from the point during a four-on-three Minuteman power play. Junior defenseman Samuli Jalkanen (Helsinki, Finland) also assisted on the goal.
The Minutemen took a 4-0 lead 12:28 into the third period when Jalkanen scored a power-play goal from the slot. Senior defenseman Toni S?derholm (Helsinki, Finland) found Jalkanen cuting through the slot. Jalkanen fired a shot top corner. P?ck also assisted on the goal.
Johnson recorded his second straight shutout and the fifth of his career. Johnson has a scoreless streak of 167:51, going back to the first period against UMass Lowell on Nov. 17. His five career shutouts are a UMass record.
The victory improves Massachusetts to 6-6-0 overall, while the loss drops Dartmouth to 4-2-1 overall.
Massachusetts returns to action on Friday, Nov. 30, when it hosts Hockey East league rival Maine in a 7:00 p.m. game at the William D. Mullins Center.

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

I really really love Teeccino's products, they are very very good, but this one - I didn't really like, I didn't feel any chocolaty flavore, and it was a bit bitter for me...
Delicious and great value. They come in individual sachets so it's great for sending with a card to someone who is unwell... just to brighten their day! Really nice afternoon treat or for dessert :) Will definitely buy again as it is so much cheaper on iherb!
No chocolaty taste at all

Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE), leading to cardiopulmonary dysfunction, is a potentially life-threatening complication in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We sought to assess the clinical presentation and risk factors for the development of NPE after SAH. The database contained prospectively collected information on 477 patients with SAH. Baseline characteristics, clinical and radiologic severity of the bleeding, localization of the ruptured aneurysm, and clinical outcome of patients with NPE were compared with those of patients without NPE. Further, in patients with NPE, intracranial pressure, serum cardiac biomarkers, and hemodynamic parameters during the acute phase were evaluated retrospectively. The incidence of NPE was 8% (39 of 477 patients). Most patients with NPE were severely impaired and all of them presented with radiologically severe hemorrhage. The incidence of NPE was significantly higher in patients with ruptured aneurysm in the posterior circulation. Elevated intracranial pressure was found in 67%, pathologically high cardiac biomarkers in up to 83% of patients with NPE. However, no patient suffered from persistent cardiac dysfunction. Compared with patients without NPE, patients with NPE showed poor neurologic outcome (Glasgow outcome scale 1 to 3 in 25% vs.77% of patients). In conclusion, patients with NPE have a high mortality rate more likely due to their severity grade of the bleeding. Morbidity and mortality due to cardiopulmonary failure might be reduced by appropriate recognition and treatment. The awareness of and knowledge about occurrence, clinical presentation, and treatment of NPE, are essential for all those potentially confronted with patients with SAH in the acute phase.

It was 150 years ago this week that the federal Congress in Washington, DC resolved one of the overlying discrepancies in pay for Union soldiers.
Since its formation in May 1863, the Bureau of United States Colored Troops were paid less than their white counterparts. White soldiers received $10 per month plus $3 for their uniform – for a total of $13. Black soldiers received $10 per month minus $3 being charged monthly for their uniforms. The discrepancy amounted to a six dollar difference each and every month.
The colored troops complained and some, including the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, actually refused to accept any pay throughout the war because of the unfairness. They argued, and rightly so, that they too were risking life and limb for their country.
Corporal James Gooding, 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, took the men's grievance to the Commander in Chief, Abraham Lincoln, writing a letter from Morris Island, South Caroline on September 28, 1863. Gooding said "You cautioned the Rebel Chieftain that the United States knows no distinction in her soldiers; she insists on having all her soldiers, of whatever creed or color, to be treated according to the usages of War. Now if the United States exacts uniformity in treatment of her soldiers from insurgents, would it not be well, and consistent to set the example herself, by paying all her Soldiers alike?" Gooding asked Mr. Lincoln to look into the matter.
In June 1864, one hundred fifty years ago this week, Congress finally approved equal pay for the U.S. Colored Troops. The measure was retroactive to their enlistment date.
In total, over 209,000 U.S. Colored Troops served in the U.S. Army and Navy during the Civil War. Over 68,000 died in their service. Corporal Gooding was one of those who did not make it through to the end of the war. Corporal Gooding died on July 19, 1864 of wounds received at the Battle of Olustee while a prisoner of War at Andersonville Prison in Georgia. He had been captured on February 20, 1864 in a battle where three thousand U.S. Colored Troops participated.

Thanksgiving is a time to spend with the people we love and to give thanks for what we have in our lives. The last thing we want to worry about during this time of year, especially with the gift-giving season around the corner, is the effect Thanksgiving will have on our bank accounts. Here are a few tips that will help us all save some cash and relieve some of the financial stress associated with the holiday season.
Planning, cooking and entertaining are a lot of stressful tasks for any one individual to take on for a single gathering. So instead of leaving all of the social and financial pressures on yourself, ask each guest to bring a side dish and/or dessert. This gives your guests a great outlet to talk about themselves, which we know so many of us like to do, and their "secret" recipes. The responsibility of feeding a large group of people is enough to keep anybody busy all day in the kitchen, so it only seems natural to spread the workload.
Fall is one of the prettiest times of the year, and what do you normally associate with Fall? Thanksgiving! So instead of spending extra money on decorations, go outside and gather your décor from your yard or a nearby park. Depending on where you live, you could find an endless supply of pine cones, leaves, and maybe even corn husks right outside your door! This could also be a perfect way to keep your children busy and out of the house. Pinterest is a great resource to use for DIY decoration ideas.
Who likes eating an endless supply of turkey for weeks after Thanksgiving? I know I don't, but even more, I hate seeing so much food go to waste. So instead of throwing out the leftovers, look up some recipes online that call for your leftover turkey. There are a plethora of delicious turkey recipes that will make the leftovers a little more enjoyable, so you'll be set for days!
Instead of sticking to the traditional Thanksgiving menu every year, don't be afraid to do something totally different. For example, stay local with your meal. If you're a Maryland resident, make pit beef sandwiches for dinner, wash it down with Natty Boh and finish it off with a homemade Smith Island Cake or Berger cookies for dessert. If you don't want to completely stray from tradition, find subtle ways to incorporate the traditional foods. Make turkey burgers, turkey meatballs, or cranberry BBQ sauce.
The holidays have enough pressure and stress associated with them, so don't create more by spending beyond your means. Use some of these budget friendly ideas to alleviate some of the stresses of the holidays and enjoy the season!

Budgeting and Bills
If you are like many young people, going off to college is the first time you begin to feel like an independent individual. Your parents and teachers have taught you all they can to prepare you for the "real world," and now it's up to you to decide whether or not you'd like to follow the advice and lessons you've learned over the years.
With no one around to scold you or tell you what to do, entering into your newly emancipated lifestyle, it can be tempting to make irresponsible financial decisions; the kinds of decisions that give you immediate gratification without thinking about the long-term effects.
Translation: Unless you want to end up grouped into one of these statistics one day, you probably should start getting yourself familiar with the equation of spending less than you're bringing in. Despite the above stats, oddly enough, personal finance can be fairly easy as long as you are prepared and start the process of saving, prioritizing, and budgeting as early as possible.
For years, I heard from my parents, "Needing and wanting are two very different things." As with most things, they were right. Just because it's new and shiny, that doesn't translate into you being unable to survive without it. Take a few deep breathes and prioritize what you really need to focus your financial efforts on this month. Books? Gas? Tuition? Food? You know, the life necessities when you are a college student. As much as that new COD game or designer outfit may seem like a necessity, you'll probably discover that you can do without it for awhile.
Repeat after me, "Excel spreadsheets and Personal Financial Management tools like Mariner360 are my friends." By visually seeing the amount of money you are bringing in versus the amount that is going out, the idea of expenses being less than your income will become a core value in your life. Trust me, once you realize how much a daily Starbucks visit will run you over the course of the month, you'll start to reevaluate and realize that making small, manageable adjustments to your everyday routine can have as much of an impact as the dent the latte puts on your wallet, but in a much more positive way.
Check out Mariner360, which helps aggregate your expenses and income into one user-friendly platform. You can then slice and dice the information, see trends and even set up alerts (i.e. I only want to spend $50 on dining out a month) that let you know when you are close to hitting your custom set budgets.
While credit cards are a great way to help you start establishing your credit, they also can be a great way to put you into thousands of dollars of debt. Credit card companies look at college students as fresh meat. They know that establishing credit is important for young adults and so they go to extremes to get you on board early. You'll see booths at every campus event, and they'll try to entice students by offering them incentives to open up a card such as free tickets to an upcoming sporting event, or a micro-fiber fleece with your school name on it.
Again, credit cards do help you start to establish credit, but make sure to refer to the "It's All about Self-Control" tip and pay off your card EVERY month. Use your credit card for only a few specific things such as gas or books. This way, you won't be overly tempted to put unnecessary purchases on your card and find yourself underwater at the end of the month.
If it can go wrong, it will. It's Murphy's Law. The earlier in life you learn this theory, the better. At the end of every month, set aside a few bucks for the "what if" scenarios that you never think, or more importantly WANT, to happen. The more you start getting in the habit of putting money into an emergency fund, the more at ease you will be in the event that you run into some troubles financially.
If you are one of the lucky ones that manage to fly below the radar of good ol' Murphy and his law, then you'll have a nice chunk of change to put towards something of importance like a down payment on a house, or that vacation you've been wanting to take.
Remember, at the end of the day, managing your finances is a fairly easy process. You don't need a financial advisor or an advanced degree in finance to establish a good foundation for managing your money. As with most things, simplicity and common sense goes a long way.

November 11th is the day we honor our veterans and active military as an expression of gratitude for their service and sacrifice to our country. But where did Veterans Day come from?
Veterans Day stemmed from the end of World War I, when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919. Although the Treaty was signed in June, fighting stopped seven months earlier when an armistice between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, was recognized as Armistice Day, until the Korean War ended in 1954. It was then renamed Veterans Day, in order to pay tribute to all veterans and active military.
For those who want to help out our veterans, here are three ways you can volunteer and make a difference in the lives of America's heroes.
Wounded Warrior Project - Wounded Warrior helps service members injured in the line of duty get access to programs that directly meet their needs. Check out the site to find out how you can perform a day of service (or more!) in your area.
Buddy to Buddy - Buddy to Buddy connects veterans with service members and vets of our recent military operations overseas in order to provide them with peer support and be a connection to helpful resources. If you have served your country, please consider helping a fellow hero!
United We Serve - United We Serve is a White House-led program that helps connect volunteers with local opportunities to help. You can also post projects on the site to get help for your own local initiative helping military veterans and their families.
No matter how you spend this Veterans Day, don't forget that it's all about the service of our brave men and women. We're honored to be able to provide our services to veterans across the country. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all of our military service members and veterans for keeping our country safe and free.
If you are a veteran looking for a home loan, check out VAMortgage.com.

We have seen Northern Bedstraw, also known as Catchweed Bedstraw, Cleavers or Stickywilly on many of our hikes in Rocky Mountain National Park. It has very pretty and delicate, white flowers.
The common name is appropriate since the bristles cause the stems, leaves, and fruits to cleave to clothes and the fur of animals. Geese also like to eat Northern Bedstraw. The plants are also known as Bedstraws since the pleasant smelling foliage was used to stuff mattresses in medieval times.
I thought that was pretty cool. It's, fun imagine how sweet it was so have a mattress stuffed with these sweet wildflowers. Have you ever seen Northern Bedstraw?

If The Biggest Loser awarded tiaras to the week's biggest drama queens, then Episode 3's top contenders would be Migdalia and Melissa.
Migdalia, who was Jillian's pet project this week, refused to break down even as Jillian taunted and challenged her to open up and confront her issues. The moments between them were so tense and ugly they made it to AOL's daily TV Top 5!
Melissa, who lost only a pound this week, was slammed by both Bob and Jillian for not being honest about throwing the weigh-in and playing the game. As the Baltimore Sun's Reality Check blog described it, "The two trainers jumped on the husband and wife team like a bear on honey."
If the old wives' tale about your ears ringing when somebody talks about you also holds true for the buzz on the internet, both Migdalia and Melissa are probably going deaf this week.
It's easy to slam someone if you have no relationship to them and no vested interest in them. But what if they've come from your neck of the woods? What are the folks back home saying about the two women in their hometown newspapers?
Migdalia, who lives in Sanford, NC, got a pass from the Raleigh New Observer website, which acknowledged "Migdalia's big chip" but refused to judge her as harshly as the rest of the blogosphere.
Melissa, who's from Aspermont, TX, midway between Lubbock and Dallas-Fort Worth, doesn't appear to be getting any love from either hometown newspaper. As of this post, no mentions of her have turned up.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 4 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by TexasPretzel What a great Product! Wow! I love this mug. We were shopping at WM in Flower Mound TX when we sampled some Crabbie's Ginger Beer, and decided to buy a 4-pack for our enjoyment. When checking out, the cashier suggested we buy this product and experience a "Moscow Mule. " Boy are we now hooked. This mug is a great addition and would make a great gift! Thanks Flower Mound World's Market!! August 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Miloy Turns your cocktail into an experience! I only discovered the Moscow Mule last year, and it has since become my favorite cocktail, in no small part due to this very special vessel for serving it. Add chipped ice and it becomes instantly frosty. The size is generous, and it's so uncommon and beautiful your guests will likely be ooh-ing and aah-ing over it. I have four now and want to buy at least two more so my friends don't have to fight over who gets the copper cup and who has to use a plain ol' glass. Make sure you use a good-quality ginger beer, not ginger ale, to make this drink. February 15, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SusanO Nice mugs for a reasonable price. Beautiful mugs at an affordable price. Had to buy online. Not available in my local store. February 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by kestnerev Copper! I'm feeling the copper bug lately and bought these after drinking out of a similar glass at a local restaurant in West Texas. These are very large and beautiful, I use them all the time for any occasion. Only thing that irks me is that there appears to be some defect at the bottom of one of the cups I bought and it looks like dirt and black crud even though I have washed it numerous times. It's not noticeable when you're drinking from the glass, but it's aesthetically unpleasing. Anyways, love the copper color, material, and handle! I want to buy more when I get some extra cash.

Idgie and Ruth are the inseparable friends in the book that Fannie Flagg wrote, "Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe" (which was made into the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes" starring Kathy Bates, Jessica Tandy, Mary Stuart Masterson and Mary-Louise Parker.
The real-life version today stars a red Dachshund named Idgie and a paralyzed black-and-white cat named Ruth.
They were left at the end of a gated driveway, hoping that some well-to-do neighbor would take them in. Thankfully, they weren't separated, because the unusual pair are inseparable, according to Jacqueline Borum, who has taken them in.
The Dachshund was protecting the kitten, who can't move its back legs, and Borum owns Hollywood Houndz Boutique & Spa in Lake Mary, Florida.
The dog protects the kitten from anyone who comes in, and they have visitors now who come specifically to see the pair, who got some exposure in the Orlando Sentinel newspaper.
"We've seen friendships between dogs and cats before, but never anything like this," Borum says.
Check out the photos and video.

About a year ago the call came out for Pet Partner therapy dogs to "audition" to be included in a wonderful children's book written by a Pet Partner team in Alabama. They were seeking specific breeds and we are so proud to have three dogs from the Love Dog Adventures team in Las Vegas in the book: George, Spike and Petey ... and Benny has a small mention! The "real" dogs have been drawn as characters in the book and many teams across the country are represented.
George is an Old English Sheepdog, Spike is a Chihuahua and Petey and Benny are poodles. We are hoping the author Jody Otwell will come to Las Vegas for a book signing event so we can have the "real" dogs from town there to pawtograph the books!
Jody's story is a compelling one centered around her own Pet Partner therapy dog, Cooper. Though his time as a therapy dog was short, he inspired so many and Jody decided to expand his career by including many other wonderful dogs in her book.
This delightful children's book tells the tale of all the different therapy dogs and shares their stories with the reader.
As the book teaches, "All kinds of different animals can do therapy work. It's not what you look like on the outside, but who you are on the inside that matters."
The "real" dogs are then featured on her website and children can read their individual stories and learn more about the important work they do as volunteers.
This project is truly a labor of love and took two years to come to fruition. A portion of sales will go to support animal-related charities.

Would anyone be able to recommend text books that give an introduction to Geometric Representation Theory and survey papers that give an outline of the work that has been done in the field? I'm looking for references that would be suitable as a follow up to James Humphrey's "Linear Algebraic Groups" and a first year graduate Algebraic Geometry course. I'd also prefer the texts to be in English but if it's necessary, I could also read references in French.
I would encourage you to consider "Representation Theory and Complex Geometry" by Chriss and Ginzburg. In particular, I think you might enjoy the realization of irreducible representations of the Weyl group of a complex semisimple group $G$ on the Borel-Moore homology of the fibres of the Springer resolution of the nilpotent cone. For me, this has always been one of the motivating examples in geometric representation theory.
Additionally to Peter Crooks answer I would recommend to study the book of Hotta and others : D-Modules, Perverse Sheaves, and Representation Theory
Here you can learn about derived categories and perverse sheaves/d-modules (which are essential tools to study geometric representation theory) and how they are connected to representation theory.
From here on it is not far to understand the geometry involved in the context of Kazhdan-Lusztig theory, Koszul Duality (in the sense of Beillinson, Ginzburg and Soergel), the Geometric Satake equivalence (Mirkovic-Vilonen).
I am currently reading though the two books already mentioned (Representation Theory and Complex Geometry by Chriss and Ginzburg and D-Modules, Perverse Sheaves, and Representation Theory by Hotta et al) and I definitely recommend them. Two other references that I have found helpful are:

Professor Emeritus
View Curriculum Vitae
Professor Mohr was born in Los Angeles but grew up in Detroit. He attended the University of Chicago, where he received his undergraduate degree, prior to pursuing his graduate degrees at the University of Michigan. Also, before obtaining his doctorate at Michigan, Professor Mohr worked as a Public Health Advisor and Research and Demonstration Grant Consultant for the U.S. Public Health Service. Since his early days in Detroit, Professor Mohr has lived in approximately twelve different cities, including Ann Arbor, Chicago, the DC area, the San Francisco Bay area, Singapore, and Guam.
Professor Mohr taught at the University of Michigan throughout his career. His research areas were organization theory, program evaluation, research methods, and the philosophy of social research. He taught undergraduate honors courses as well as courses on organization theory, design, and behavior, statistics, public program evaluation, and the philosophy of social research. In addition to his many years of tenure at the University, Professor Mohr served as a consultant for a number of organizations, such as the Government Accounting Office, National Institute of Education, National Institute of Justice, and National Science Foundation.
In reminiscing about the Department, Professor Mohr says, "The 1960s and '70s were turbulent years for the Department. During much of that time I was Director of Graduate Studies. Many of the graduate students and some of the faculty were very interested in making the Department a much more permeable and hospitable place for women and minorities. Their tactics were often confrontational, thus arousing a good deal of resistance, but the Department, for whatever reasons, did move significantly in those directions and, to the best of my knowledge, has never regretted it."
Professor Mohr's advice to current and potential graduate students is "to think very hard about what social science research can accomplish," something that he has thought and written about in his first and last books. He is currently working on a book about the mystery of the sexuality of middle-class Victorian women.

Helping to keep course content current is Trustee David Regn '97, co-founder of Stream Companies, an award-winning advertising agency firmly grounded in the digital space.
Regn worked with Jerry Zurek, Ph.D., Chair of the Communication Department, in designing the new major, which includes social media courses in marketing, management, evaluation, and leadership.
The International Business major prepares students to work in the increasingly global, interconnected business environment.
Students in this Bachelor of Science degree program will master theory and practice in accounting, finance, marketing, and management. International internships will be a distinctive element. Students in this major can choose a concentration in non-profit management, public administration, or advertising.
The Degree-Completion Program with a Leadership Studies major was designed primarily for working adults who have completed an associate degree and wish to complete their undergraduate studies at Cabrini College.
As a "hybrid" program, approximately half of the courses will be online to accommodate working adult schedules.
In Accounting, students can earn a Bachelor of Science, a Master of Accounting, or both in the 4+1 program, which is a five-year program.
Because additional credit hours beyond a bachelor's degree are now required to take the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam, the 4+1 program enables students to earn the required 150 credits, while enhancing their in-depth knowledge of areas such as international accounting and forensic accounting.
The Black Studies minor, housed in the History and Political Science Department, expands the College's capacity to offer a more inclusive curriculum that connects with the intellectual and cultural heritage of people of African descent.
The Writing minor and Theater minor, each made up of 18 credits of high-level English courses, enriches students in any field who wish to gain a more informed appreciation for literature and the language arts or explore interests in performance and design on stage or behind the scenes, as well as students who desire additional writing instruction and support to meet their professional goals.
The Leadership Studies minor is designed for students from all majors and disciplines, focusing on a personal style of ethical leadership and preparation for leadership positions in their careers and communities.
Graduate Programs:
The Master of Accounting program is designed to meet the needs of recent accounting graduates, career-changers, and working professionals who wish to further develop their accounting expertise and increase their career opportunities.
Students can earn a graduate degree in accounting in as little as fifteen months as a part-time student, and the program satisfies the requirement of 150 credit hours for the CPA exam.
The Master of Science in Leadership program (formerly Master of Science in Organizational Leadership) offers new concentrations in non-profit, civic, and organizational leadership studies.
Also available are the following Education programs:
Master of Education with Special-Education Certification
Special-Education Certification without Master of Education
Master of Education with K–12 Administrative Certification

Congressman Michael Grimm threatened to push a reporter off the balcony in the United States Capitol Building Tuesday after he asked Grimm about his developing campaign financing scandal, according to Yahoo News, Jan. 29, 2014. Grimm, who had just completed a short interview with Mike Scotto of NY1 on the evening of President Obama's State of the Union Address, stepped outside and then re-emerged into the camera frame to threaten Scotto. Grimm complained to Scotto that the question about his campaign financing was not a valid question. Grimm threatened to 'break" Scotto "in half" and to "throw" Scotto "over this balcony."
Scotto then told Grimm that he "just wanted to know" and that his question was, in fact, valid. Grimm responded by telling Scotto that he was "not man enough" and that he would "break" him "in half like a boy."
Grimm Apologizes:
On Wednesday Grimm called Scotto and apologized for his behavior, claiming that he had let his emotions "get the better" of him and cause him to "lose his cool." Scotto accepted the apology and stated that he felt that Grimm was sincere when he apologized.
However, NY1 Director Bob Hardt was less forgiving, calling Grimm's behavior "unacceptable."
Republicans in trouble:
Grimm's episode is one of a series of political troubles that have been plaguing Republican politicians lately, most notably Governor Chris Christie (R,NJ) with his "Bridgegate" scandal and accusations of collusion in the management of Sandy Hurricane relief funds . Former Governor Bob McDonnell (R,Va) and his wife are facing charges of accepting over $160,000 in gifts from a prominent Virginia businessman.

Last week, a photo appeared online of what appeared to be Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber kissing. The photo turned out to be fake, but new photos are now making the rounds that look a whole lot like Bieber and Gomez were getting cozy on vacation.
The photos that appeared on fansite Anything Disney show the pair apparently canoodling on a yacht in St. Lucia. Bieber sports black swim trunks, while Gomez wears a blue bikini. They are seen hugging, snuggling and kissing, and in one shot, Bieber has a hand on Gomez's backside.
Over New Year's weekend, Bieber stayed active on Twitter, sending out messages of love to his fans. "A lot of u are tweeting me about the TT #girlrespect so im gonna chime in," he wrote. "All girls should feel beautiful. a real man knows to treat a lady like a queen. ur happiness comes from theirs. step up fellas. #girlrespect."
When asked about the constant speculation regarding his personal life last month, Bieber brushed off the rumors about him and Gomez. "She's really cool. She's an amazing person," he told MTV News . "I think that people are always gonna be interested in my personal life … but I gotta keep some things to myself. I'm just having fun being a teenager."
