NOVA is concerned about more than academic success, we also care about the emotional and physical well-being of our community members. The NOVACares process provides anyone a way to share his or her concerns by submitting an online incident report. The NOVACares Office receives and directs these reports to the appropriate NOVACares Responder for intervention, as needed. Trained NOVACares Responders are committed to a proactive approach to help our College maintain a safer community.

Report Concerns
The NOVACares process serves as an early intervention program and helps to facilitate a See Something, Say Something culture at the College. This reporting system is used to track and manage reports of Academic Integrity Violations, Concerning Behavior and Code of Conduct or Criminal incidents. Reported information is shared only on a need to know basis. Reports that indicate severe risk or imminent danger are directed to the college–wide Threat Assessment Team for review.

Sexual Assault, Stalking and Domestic Violence
The NOVA Sexual Assault Services (SAS) program aims to address issues of sexual assault, stalking and dating/partner violence as part of our commitment to the safety and well-being of our college community.
SAS's mission is to provide educational outreach and free confidential support and services to any member of the NOVA community. We assist students, faculty, staff and immediate family members, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation.
Contact NOVA SAS at 703.338.0834 or by email at email@example.com. We are available to help and support you in the best and safest way possible, including referrals to police and/or any other community agencies that may be able to assist in your recovery.
The following is a brief overview of the types of behaviors that SAS addresses, and how to get help if you or someone you care about encounters any of these situations.
Any sexual act lacking consent from one or more parties, or unwanted physical and sexual contact between two or more individuals is a form of sexual assault. Anyone can be a victim. Most victims know their perpetrators. It is NEVER the victim's fault. No one 'asks for it.'
- rape, forced sodomy, digital or object penetration
- unwanted sexual touching without penetration
- indecent exposure
- non-consensual sexting
Stalking is persistent, unwanted contact or attention by an individual directed at a person that causes him/her to feel fear.
- receiving numerous unwanted calls, texts or emails
- finding notes or messages on your door or windshield (not necessarily threatening notes)
- "coincidental" run-ins with the same individual on multiple occasions
- being followed or watched, either physically or electronically
- finding the same person outside your work, class or home when you leave or arrive
Dating/Partner violence refers to acts or behaviors through which an individual inflicts emotional, psychological, physical or financial harm to his/her intimate partner in order to maintain control.
- humiliating or embarrassing a partner in front of peers, friends or family members
- engaging in non-consensual or unwanted sexual acts
- controlling a partner's movements or actions
- insulting, pressuring, intimidating or threatening a partner
- using violent physical contact such as choking, pushing, hitting
SAS provides educational outreach in classrooms on these issues. We also assist students working on research projects or classroom assignments related to sexual assault, relationships, violence and abuse, and stalking.

Dirty Liberals on Google Insult Rick Santorum's Honorable Name
When I imagine the ideal American future, an image pops up in my mind, the image of the smiling face of Rick Santorum. With his qualifications, knowledge, and Morals, he will easily lead America to Victory if he succeeds in this election. However, like any brilliant man, there are challenges he must succeed in to win over America. I do not support any of these challenges because he is too good for them, but the liberal media puts them into place to try and make it harder for the Great Republicans of America to succeed.
Rick Santorum has been vocal in his intolerance for sodomy, with good reason considering that in this day and age, it's too risky to not let your view on homosexuality show through with the gay agenda attempting to lure your boys and girls for a world encompassing regime of rainbows and unspeakable sexual acts. The homosexuals, a maniacal machine determined to lure young men, will often claim that a Great American like President Santorum is a homosexual as a recruiting tactic. This is, as you can see, terrible.
The evil liberals behind "It Get's Better" are insisting that their vile slang be named after a good man in order to attempt to market homosexuality to the Republican crowd. This is an insult beyond anything to Rick Santorum. Rick Santorum is one of the most Upstanding, Moral Christians in America these days, and we do not allow this kind of slander.
What will I be doing about this terrible problem? I will be boycotting Google. After all, it was founded by Stanford graduates so that basically accounts for the disgusting liberal bias upheld by the website. The site refuses to take this massive assault on Rick Santorum down, so instead I will now be relying on Bing for all of my search engine needs. I suggest anyone who hasn't already left that homosexual wasteland of a site leave now, because Rick Santorum deserves better.

Republican, American, Christian, Man, Carnivore, White, Hero, Genius, Brave. All words that adequately describe Christopher Christenson. At the ripe young age of 28, Christopher has been writing for Christwire for quite a while, when he isn't warding off the North Koreans from attacking or mentoring youth at his church. Because of his young age, he is able to connect with the young people whilst still charming our beloved elderly. Christopher is fascinated by the grotesque trends among youth and will stop at nothing to investigate. You can contact him on his website.

You are going to boycott google….Wtf? Google is worth more than any of us. Are you crazy?
Praise or Condemn: 10 7
Nah, I'm sure the eight of them alone can take down google…
What a bucking crazy idea…
((Yes, I purposely put "bucking" instead of "fucking"))
Praise or Condemn: 11 7
We will take it down just like you take down a bag of doritos tubby.
Praise or Condemn: 9 14
Again with the insults? It's it a sin to be hateful? Guess you are going to join your husband in hell. And you will never take down google, or anything.
Praise or Condemn: 10 5
Pebrocks, my boy. You need to stop waggling your little wiener around on the internet. I hate to say it, but bragging about your accomplishments on forums such as these actually causes you to LOSE credibility with your peers and makes you appear desperate. We aren't particularly interested in your individual achievements, so keep it to yourself, please.
Praise or Condemn: 4 12
Thank you Hank for spelling my name right. It would seem you are the only one. And why are you trying to think about my penis? That is quite homosexual don't you think? And about me talking about my life, which was some place else, not in this comment to Susan. If the man insults me and thinks he knows my life, I am going to tell him he's wrong and show him. And one last thing, you people always brag so is it not okay for a Atheist to do it?
Praise or Condemn: 8 4
"Waggling your wiener around" is a metaphorical way of saying you're too egotistical, like the sweaty, testosterone-infused teenagers in the locker room. Don't look too far into it, that's stupid.
And no, if someone insults you on the internet, it is not your duty to explain to him in nauseating detail how and why he is wrong. That's just pathetic.
Praise or Condemn: 3 9
It's not pathetic. If a man, or woman, treats other terrible then they need to be called out on it and shown that what they do is wrong, and that they are wrong.
Praise or Condemn: 6 2
Are you new to the internet, Pebrocks? That is not how it works here.
Praise or Condemn: 4 6
I've been on the computer since I was 2. I think I know how the internet works better than you.
Praise or Condemn: 4 4
I think you don't, because you still feel the need to justify yourself to strangers.
Praise or Condemn: 3 5
Just who I am. Don't hate, appreciate.
Praise or Condemn: 4 3
I don't hate (Christian!), but I am finding it hard to appreciate.
Praise or Condemn: 2 5
Oh yay! Old bitch is back and off swinging with a fat joke! I honestly thought (and hoped) that you had died.
I doubt ANYONE has the power to take down Google you old hag.
Praise or Condemn: 9 9
Your hopes have failed, just as you both have in life. How is living with your mothers working out?
The fact is no one except God All Mighty has the power to take me down, and he has left me here with a mission, to proselytize to you sinners
Praise or Condemn: 5 13
"you both"? Ahaha that's rich. I happen to be in culinary soon right now. Going on to being something in life. The only thing you have done Susan is lived by a book.
Praise or Condemn: 6 4
I still live with my parents because I'm still somewhat young. How's living in your parent's basement pretending to be an 80 year old woman online going for you?
I hope "God" decides to take you from this earth soon…I thinking "Satan" is saving a nice spot on his lap for you
You don't have a right or mission to try and convert people to your jacked-up religion.
Praise or Condemn: 7 8
Pebrocks, good luck with getting a real job at a real restruant with that attitude. No one wants to hire someone like you, even that British guy that cusses all the time. The best you can hope for is a lower management job at McDonalds. If I ever get my coffee from a shift manager named Pebrock I will throw it in your face.
Praise or Condemn: 6 8
I'm pretty sure anyone with a weapon could take you down, really.
Praise or Condemn: 4 4
43 is not "still pretty young" but it is "pretty pathetic. When my husband died he left me with a insurance policy, a paid house, and several paid off cars.
I have a million dollar life insurance policy invested well, book revenues from my christian books I sold in the 80's, stocks and bonds, social security, veterans benefits, medicare and medicaid, and AARP insurance. I want for nothing and live in a nice house in a nice neighborhood in Atlanta. I do not live in a basement but my Grandson does live with me.
He is a fat loser like you too, but I love him. He is family and looks after me. I just wish he would get rid of those toys and get a wife.
Praise or Condemn: 7 4
I have plenty of guns of my own, as the kids say "brung it" Fred.
Praise or Condemn: 6 4
This attitude is really only towards you people on the internet. I am more calmer in real life. And I would never lower myself to McDonalds. And you really think my real name is Pebrocks?
Praise or Condemn: 5 6
43? You think I'm 43? I'm 19 you old hag.
I don't believe for one second that your an actual old lady and your little story is all bullshit.
"brung" isn't a word
You may have guns, but I guarantee my aim is greater than yours. And I don't believe in the warning shot, I shoot to kill

I'm not Liberal you fat-headed dumbfuck. My family happens to own Guns and we his hooting quite often. Why waste a bullet warning you web that same bullet could be lodged in your fat head?
You don't fucking know me, I have a job that I like.
I'm a Brony and damn proud of it. Admitting you're a Brony is nowhere near as difficult as it is for someone to come out of the closet, but it still takes guts to say "I'm a guy and I love My Little Pony

Great article Christopher, we can and will take Google down with this.

We successfully boycotted:
The state of NY
Bill Murray
And many others….
Praise or Condemn: 7 3
Are you smoking crack? NY is still a state, I don't even know what you are talking about with Bill Murray. How can you boycott a man? Subway is still here and I eat there sometimes. I can play Frogger anytime I want.
Praise or Condemn: 3 6
"How can you boycott a man?"
Are you serious? People are products all the time. Any time you buy a band's album, a movie, you are supporting everyone who is a part of it. You can boycott a person by boycotting every product they contributed to.
Praise or Condemn: 5 2
you may have boycotted all you want but you obviously have gotten anywhere because everything you mentioned is still there. gay marriage is still legal in ny. frogger is still a popular toy, subway is actually more popular to eat at too and YOU didnt succeed in anything with bill murrary he was convicted and not by you.
so what have you been actually successful at???

Above and below right, Turtle Watch's Suzi Fox,
in yellow, Claudia Wiseman, in white hat, and Rhonda Bailey
work feverishly to dig up and relocate sea turtle
eggs as rising Gulf waters threaten to inundate the nest.
In the pre-dawn hours last Friday, Anna Maria Island Turtle Watch and Shorebird Protection volunteers began waking up all over the Island.
"I heard the storm, and I knew we would have problems," AMITW Director Suzi Fox. "With that wind and the pounding surf, I knew we'd have some nests washed out for sure, and I was also worried about the birds nesting on the north end of the Island.
Section Coordinator Glenn Wiseman came awake at his own house sensing the same thing.
"At about 4 a.m., we all began calling each other," Fox noted. "We weren't really expecting the strength of the storm, but it really hit everyone on the west coast of Florida.
Wiseman said the volunteers went out on the beach to monitor their sections as they do every morning at dawn, searching the beach for signs that a female loggerhead has crawled ashore during the hours of darkness to dig a hole and deposit her eggs. The volunteers also check to see if any of the nests have hatched leaving the telltale-scrambling trail from the nest to the sea.
"There was no thunder or lightening," Wiseman said. "So everyone headed to the beach as usual."
But when they got there, they found surf that was up to the grass line and winds that were whipping the sand around with great force.
"It felt like you were being hit in the face with gravel," Wiseman said. "It was really brutal. People just had to get off the beach."
Fox said that with the water so high, they couldn't run the ATV along the shore to monitor that way.
By dawn, residents and visitors all over the Island were calling the AMITW phone line reporting that nests were being washed out to sea.
State and federal guidelines prohibit moving nests during storm events unless the eggs are actually uncovered and rolling in the surf.
"We lost five nests altogether," Fox said. "They were washed completely away. We were able to relocate eight nests."
Each nest contains about 100 eggs, so with each washout, a potential of 100 potential hatchlings are gone. Scientists' best estimate is that only one of every 1,000 baby turtles will make it to reproductive age, a loss of five hundred eggs is a serious blow, according to Fox.Nest locations unknown
This is the height of turtle nesting season, with anywhere from five to 10 "emergences" each night.
An emergence is the term used to refer to any time a turtle leaves the water and climbs ashore, according to Fox.
"We could, potentially, have had 10 new nests during the night of the storm," she said. "We will never know where those nests are, because all signs of the tracks of the mother turtles were erased by the storm.
"We can just hope that those nests are safe until they hatch," she said.
The storm also created two steep berms along the beach that was just renourished.
"One is from about 70th Street to 77th Street. The other is a little bit to the south of that," Fox said.
Usually, Fox would call the county to come out and smooth the berm out.
"We can't do that this time," she said. "I don't know if there are turtle nests there or not, and we just can't take the chance."
Fox asked everyone to have patience with the berms for the next 50-to-55 days, which will give any unmarked nests a chance to hatch.
"One of those berms is straight up and down," Wiseman noted.
"Some people had to help pull Claudia (AMITW Volunteer Claudia Wiseman) right up the side of the berm, because it was too steep to climb," Fox said.
She added that that wasn't all people did to help.
"People called us as they noticed the nests that were in trouble," Fox said. "Our people here on the Island are wonderful. The response was terrific. It's just an example of the amazing teamwork we have going on here."
Wiseman agreed.
"People just stepped forward to help without even being asked," he said. "The Zoller, Prokuski and Duffie families have been coming here for years. They helped us relocations and anything else we needed."
Shorebird nesting update
The storm was hard on the skimmers nesting on the north end of Anna Maria Island. Twelve chicks died as a result of the wind and water.
But at the same time, the number of birds in the skimmer colony is growing.
"There are 15 more nesting pairs, so we've had to expand the boundaries of the colony a bit," Fox said.
As of Monday morning, there were 373 black skimmer adults and 33 chicks in the colony.
Some of the first chicks to hatch are beginning to explore their new world.
"They're running away from their mothers and exploring the water and the sand area," Fox said. "You can see them putting their heads down at the waterline getting their first drink or their first experience with the water."
Fox said over the next weeks, the chicks will learn to swim, to fish for their food and, finally to fly.
"Some of our wonderful people are trying to help by shooing the chicks back to their parents," she said. "They're trying to protect the babies, but the chicks need to go down to the water. They need to learn to do things on their own."
Fox asks everyone who happens upon the skimmer chicks wandering from their nests to just stand back and enjoy the sight of these little birds learning about their environment.

Before Latin America became an agricultural powerhouse and began exporting a variety of fruit and vegetables, people living throughout the Midwest depended on the ripening citrus crops in Florida and California to brighten the dreary days of winter. An orange stuffed into one's Christmas stocking was considered to be a rare treat.
Citrus crops have been a part of the New World's agricultural palate since Spanish explorers planted orange seeds around St. Augustine, Florida in 1565. Since that time, citrus cultivation has spread westward through the Gulf Coast areas of Louisiana, Georgia, Texas and into Arizona and California. Oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruit and some of the more exotic citrus fruit have become a significant source of revenue for these states.
Citrus fruits play a large role in culinary endeavors as well. Lemon juice is often used to enhance the flavor of meat and tomatoes, and it is noted for reducing the "fishy" taste of fish. Limes flavor both Hispanic and Asian foods. Orange juice and zest add interest to pork and poultry, salads and a variety of preserves and sweets.
Citrus also plays a role in good nutrition. Vitamins A, C, calcium and fiber are provided by citrus fruits. When citrus is eaten with foods high in iron or calcium, ascorbic acid helps the body to absorb these minerals more effectively. Many citrus fruits have medicinal value as well. For example, grapefruit can lower cholesterol; people who are on statin drugs are restricted from eating grapefruit because the combination of the drugs and the fruit may lower cholesterol levels to an extreme. The citron (Citrus medica) was used to calm tummy troubles in China, India and throughout Europe in ancient times, and the essential oil contained in its peel is regarded as an antibiotic.
This week we'll explore some fantastic recipes using readily available citrus fruits.

The word "abhidhamma" is very seldom found in the Vinaya and Suttanta (according to one authority eleven times), and when it is found it is usually paired with the term "abhivinaya." Since there is and never was an Abhivinaya Piṭaka the context implies that "abhidhamma" here means simply "about Dhamma," not "higher Dhamma." In the very few cases where the term clearly refers to the philosophy of the Abhidhamma Piṭaka it is found in relatively very late canonical exegesis of older texts—for example, the Vinaya Suttavibhaṅga and the Mahāniddesa.

30 companies Mitt Romney's Bain Capital invested in from 1986-1998
Investment: Unknown
Realized: Unknown
Recent employment numbers: 15,000
Jack Smith pitched the idea of a sporting-goods mega store to Romney, Bain and several other backers in 1987, and by 1990 he had opened nine stores in six states. Kmart bought the chain for $75 million and then sold off Sports Authority in 1994, The Street reports. In January 2012, Smith told National Review that attacks against Bain and Romney are "a terrible slap against a brilliant guy's record." At the end of 1998, Sports Authority had almost 14,000 employees, The American reports.

Do we invest in the future or in the past. It seems that Pres. Obama was looking to the future along with maintaining some aspects of the past. Romney on the other hand was firmly rooted in the old money of the past.

Domino's Pizza Year: 1998
Investment: Bain reportedly paid $1 billion for the controlling stake
Realized: The Boston Globe estimates Bain saw a 500 percent return
That would be a $500 BILLION return from Domino's Pizza! Really?
In 2000, Domino's Pizza Total Revenue was $1.166 Billion. Domino's would have to pay the equivalent of their entire revenue to Bain, without paying any other expense or tax, for over 400 years in order for Bain to make a 500% return.

Hey Stuff, Bain Capital's investment was $1 billion and their net increase
was 500% on their investment. Which could mean between income and capital gains
they had a 500% increase.
Also, 500% is equivelant to 5 times the investments or $5Billion in returns (net income or capital gains).

One of the most interesting office-supply items I got from Staples recently was the big red easy button. You see it on the commercial all the time. Something good happens and just hit the easy button. The button says "that was easy". The button is only about five dollars and demand for the easy button has gone way up since Mitt announced his candidacy.Does it make $1 million? Probably not. But it sure is fun.I like Mitt's style a lot! Having worked with creative consultants in my past life I find some of the most valuable things they do is to leave a new way of thinking and positive attitude.

DN that was a great List with synopsis of Bain's early work when Romney was
involved. I can see how he amassed his fortune. I'm surprised at the
percentage of winners compared to losers - he has quite a good record of getting
in and getting out as other investors bought into the businesses.
I know that Obama wants to attack Romney, but geez,, there's just not much there to complain about - nobody's perfect, but Romney's record is quite good. Romney and his partners were moneymaking gurus in the capitalistic business world of America. Kudos for their savvy decisions and willingness to invest in troubled companies.

College Hockey:McKee Blanks Vermont, Cornell Moves On
ALBANY, N.Y. — Sophomore netminder David McKee made 25 saves to earn his single-season league record 10th shutout and lead his Cornell Big Red to a 3-0 victory over the Vermont Catamounts in the semifinals of the ECACHL Tournament.
"This was a big one for me," said McKee about his blanking. "I wanted to get one deep in the postseason."
With the victory, the Big Red (25-4-3) extended their nation's best unbeaten streak to 16-0-1, which includes seven shutouts in their last 11 games.
"This game was similar to a lot of games we've won this year," said Cornell head coach Mike Schafer. "Vermont had good transition chances in the first period, but David was up to the task."
"I thought the players played the game to win tonight," said UVM head coach Kevin Sneddon. "We said all week that we were not coming to Albany to participate, but to win the Cleary Cup."
Indeed, the Catamounts (21-13-4) had a strong opening 20 minutes, beating Cornell to the puck on most occasions and taking the play to the Big Red. UVM narrowly missed taking an early lead when rookie Torrey Mitchell put a rebound just wide of Cornell netminder David McKee from the slot at 5:10.
"Part of their game plan," explained Schafer, "was to force it to the net. I thought we were sloppy around the net and didn't pick up sticks. After the first period, the guys picked it up."
Cornell's best chance in the first 10 minutes came when junior Cam Abbott took a breakout pass across three lines and skated in alone on UVM's Joe Fallon (19 saves) from the blueline. Abbott faked the netminder to his knees and tried to slide the puck between the freshman's pads, but it hit the back of Fallon's right leg and slid wide through the slot.
Forty seconds later, Vermont defenseman Kenny Macaulay skated to the Cornell blueline while his teammates changed up behind him. His seemingly harmless wrister went between three Big Red players and clanged off the post to the right of McKee.
"We thought if we got one of those early," said Sneddon, "it would have been a different game."
It was Cornell, however, who would take the lead at 13:22 when rookie Topher Scott continued his streak of clutch goals. A week after notching the overtime series winner in the quarterfinals against Clarkson, he connected on his eight of the season.
When three UVM players committed to Abbott behind the Catamounts net, Scott snuck into the slot where he took Abbott's pass and backhanded the puck over Fallon's shoulder.
"Cam shoved it in front of the net," explained Scott. "It was just right place, right time. I didn't get a lot of it. Fortunately, it just happened to go in."
The Big Red entered the game 19-0-2 when scoring first, making it a tough hill for UVM to climb.
"Once they get up a goal or two," Sneddon said, "they are tough to come back on."
Vermont hit its second post of the game just 30 seconds into the middle frame when leading scorer Scott Mifsud's wrist shot hit the pipe to the left of McKee.
"A goalie's best friend," said the netminder.
Soon thereafter, special teams took over. Cornell was awarded the game's first man-advantage at 4:13. The Catamounts were unable to clear the puck while shorthanded, but did manage to kill off the penalty — thanks in large part to Fallon's sharp play.
UVM earned its own power play at 7:17, but failed to get a shot on McKee as the nation's best penalty killing unit flexed its muscle.
At 9:44, the Big Red went back on the power play after Catamount defenseman Jaime Sifers was forced to pull Cornell's Matt Moulson to the ice to avoid a scoring opportunity. All it did was prolong the inevitable, however, as Moulson was able to connect 12 seconds into the man-advantage, wristing a shot from the point that trickled in off Fallon for his 22nd of the year.
"I'm not sure how it went in," said Moulson. "It fluttered. I took a page from Topher's book."
Vermont had a chance to jump back into the contest while on the power play early in the third period, but the Big Red held the Catamounts to without a shot. From there, Cornell's defense took charge and stymied the remaining UVM chances, including a sensational glove save by McKee on a redirected shot through traffic.
"[It was] a great glove save on the tip," said Schafer. "He's deserving of the Hobey Baker award. He's done it all year."
Junior Chris Abbott added an empty net goal for Cornell at 18:42 to round out the scoring.
"Cornell doesn't give you many opportunities," said Sneddon. "Their forecheck is tremendous — and they don't give up many odd-man rushes. We didn't have — after the first period — any rushes up ice with control of the puck.
"We didn't play the way we wanted to play. The credit goes to Cornell. They force you to play their game."
The Big Red moves on to play the winner of the Colgate-Harvard semifinal for the ECACHL tourney title tomorrow night.
"We're just glad to be in the championship game," said Schafer. "The only thing I'm hoping for is a five or six overtime game that goes until 4 a.m."
Vermont will play the loser of today's night cap in the Third Place game that will have NCAA implications.
"Tomorrow is equally important," said Sifers. "We need to keep our heads high."

At the heart of the ZEROREZ® revolutionary cleaning technology, is its ability to clean without the use of high-residue soaps, detergents, or shampoos.
ZEROREZ® cleaning services are based on its unique EMPOWERED WATER™ technology. EMPOWERED WATER™ is water that has been softened and electrolyzed by our patented EO Water System. Empowered Water™ cleans like soap and eliminates germs and bacteria instantly — without any chemical additives.
Empowered Water™ is applied to your carpet fibers by a patented high-pressure, controlled spray system that loosens embedded dirt and removes it through our powerful and patented extraction wand. Your carpet is clean without any residue and the dry time is dramatically reduced because we don't flood your carpets with water, unlike all other carpet cleaners.
Another significant benefit of the ZEROREZ® cleaning system is that spots are much less likely to reappear. Reappearing spots are often the result of wicking action from the back of the carpet to the tips of the carpet fiber as the carpet dries. We eliminate this and de-lamination (caused by conventional hot water extraction cleaning methods) because we do not penetrate the primary backing.
ZEROREZ® has a Plantinum Rating from CRI (Carpet and Rug Institute) the industry's highest rating. Remember—no residue means cleaner longer!

Where the Deals Are
I'm in a meeting, with our entire editorial staff gathered around the conference table, and all the while I'm on my iPhone, frantically scrolling through pages of pictures of Chloe bags. Boss: talking. Me: shopping. A few weeks ago I discovered the world of online designer discounts, and in 10 seconds I was hooked. I shop half a dozen sites regularly, and thanks to the wonder of modern technology I'm able to get e-mail alerts 24/7. I've shopped at home, on the bus, and even once in a ladies' room stall (shoes!).
It turns out I'm not the only one who's ventured into this newly discovered (and newly chic) off-price land. Experts say consumers are increasingly designer savvy, and the word masstige has been coined to describe the trend of prestige for the masses. And then there's the economy — it's not so happy, if you haven't heard — which is also fueling the demand for good deals. Attention all label whores: Designer discounters are where it's at.
One of the best trends: Longtime discount retailer Loehmann's is offering no-fee personal shoppers at many of their stores, something I never expected at a place with group dressing rooms. I immediately called for an appointment at the Manhattan flagship. After a few advance questions from personal shopper Victoria Nielsen (could I describe my style, my wish list of buys?), I arrived at the store to find a rack of clothes she'd pulled on my behalf. Genius! No trolling through the aisles, arms loaded with hangers, sweat drenching my back. Victoria even took into account my own, um, body issues (big shoulders and a narrow waist). How'd I do? Victoria totally came through (see some of what I bought, next page. Love this stuff? Too late — by the time you read this, the goods on these pages will be gone — but you'll find other treats.) The downside: Like any discounter, Loehmann's offers limited sizes and colors, and sometimes you'll contend with a missing button or two. Still, my savings total was shocking: $9,932.
Where does the stuff come from? Stores such as Loehmann's, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls have two main sources: They buy overages (when the designer produces too much) as well as clothes that stores ordered but returned when they didn't sell. Also filling out the racks: discounters' own lines (called private label). All of it is new — or relatively so. The day I shopped Loehmann's, a shipment of Oscar de la Renta gowns arrived, brand spanking new. Made me wish I had an event to attend; at the prices Loehmann's was selling them for ($2,200 down to $399), I felt like throwing a party myself.
With great merchandise and top service, these stores are on to something. Industry experts agree that the discount train will roar on.
What's in Store?
Thanks to the store's personal shopper, Victoria Nielsen, I struck gold at Loehmann's, the discounter with the most big-name merchandise. My total savings: $9,932. I fell in love with the beaded beauty I'm holding here, but it didn't fit.
Victoria consoled me with a metallic floral Carolina Herrera. What I paid: $462 instead of $1,990.
This Jean Paul Gaultier stunner (above) was missing the belt, but that earned me an extra 10 percent off — and I found the perfect belt in my closet. What I paid: $316 instead of $1,975.
This Dolce & Gabbana dress fits me perfectly; it's roomy enough for my big shoulders, but slim on the bottom. I'd have missed it, but Victoria expertly snagged it. What I paid: $163 instead of $1,200.

Women's Tennis
Purchase, NY (Oct. 27 2010) – For the second straight season, Purchase's fall campaign finished one match shy of the championship.
The Panthers fell to rival Bard College in the Skyline Conference Tournament Semifinals in 2010. Although they haven't been able to win it all just yet, Purchase remains one of the best teams in the conference – and its prospects for a title seem to get better each year with the team's budding recruits.
Purchase clinched the No. 3 seed in the tournament and enjoyed a spectacular season on the hard courts that included an 8-4 overall record and a 5-2 mark in league play.
The Panthers were anchored by their dynamic No. 1 doubles duo of Moriah Ormsby and Colline Laninga. Laninga capped a tremendous collegiate career with a senior season to remember. She was named to the league Honor Roll twice during the season. The senior went 8-1 overall in singles, including a 6-1 record in conference. She also teamed with star rookie Ormsby for a 7-5 overall record at No. 1 doubles.
Ormsby presents the future of the program. No rookie made a bigger impact on her team and in the conference than she did. The standout freshman went 8-2 overall in singles, predominantly playing No. 2. She also yielded a pristine 6-1 mark in conference play, taking home four league Honor Roll mentions, one Skyline Rookie of the Week and one Skyline Player of the Week.
Laninga and Ormsby were later named to the All-Skyline 1st Team.
Other notables included standout junior Alyson Lopez, who has greatly improved the past few seasons, becoming one of the most reliable and dependable players on the Panthers – and in the league.
[Pictured above: COLLINE LANINGA WAS NAMED TO THE ALL-SKYLINE 2ND TEAM IN 2009. -Photo by Oren Vourman]
Lopez went an impressive 9-2 in singles this fall, including a 2-1 mark at No. 4 and a 4-1 mark at No. 5. The junior co-captain was also equally impressive in conference play, totaling a 6-1 league record. Her combined singles and doubles record for the season is 8-3.
Like Laninga, team co-captain Tatyana de Muns also finished her Purchase career on a high note. She went a combined 12-6 this season in singles and doubles. Her leadership was unmatched and will be greatly missed moving forward. Her final season as a Panther produced a 6-3 overall record in singles (5-2 in Skyline) and a 4-3 conference mark in doubles play.
Next fall looks like it has all the makings of another championship run. The Panthers return standout underclassmen Ashley Bernhardt, Tova Hadar, Mary McDermott, Chelsea Quinn, Amy Spenziero and Kim Whitehead – all of which contributed to Purchase's success in 2010. The Panthers also have high hopes for Michelle Gil, Emily Bishop and returning senior Lopez, who along with Ormsby will anchor next fall's squad.

Information for Emergency Department Visitors
At Platte County Memorial Hospital, we recognize the therapeutic benefit of having a trusted friend or family member at the bedside during a medical emergency.
- The emergency department is a small area with many patients, so in most cases, only one visitor at a time is allowed at the bedside.
- This will allow us to better meet the medical and privacy needs of all our patients.
- We ask that relatives and friends to remain in the emergency lobby area unless their presence is absolutely necessary for care.
- Staff will keep friends and family informed about care and treatment as much as possible.
Minors may need to be accompanied by their parents.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
BiologyVery little is known about the biology of the pygmy devilray but mating is known to take place in shallow water, with each litter usually comprising just one offspring (1). In a form of reproduction known as ovoviviparity, the embryo develops in a membranous egg within the mother. After hatching, it remains in the mother and continues to be nourished by the yolk sac until it is ready to emerge. Like other mobulid species, adult and juvenile pygmy devilrays feed on plankton and small fish (1) (5).

A Simple Explanation of Zerona
The Zerona Laser Denver is an amazing alternative to the cost and risk associated with cosmetic surgery, both financially and physically. Because it offers relatively fast, painless inch-loss, most people's first reaction is 'this is too good to be true.' However, when clients see the outcome in just two weeks, it is difficult for even the strong skeptics to deny the results.
Zerona is fully FDA approved for effective fat removal body contouring, making it the only non-invasive, non-surgical alternative to liposuction surgery! The laser quickly and painlessly liquefies the fat, which is then removed by the body's normal detoxifying process. This allows the client to lose stubborn inches from the abdomen, waist, hips thighs or arms discretely, without losing time to healing and recovery.The United States National Institute of Health administered clinical trials of Zerona and confirmed its effectiveness.
Full FDA approval was granted August 2010 (LINK). This approval is exclusively for the Erchonia brand Zerona laser, who does not share or allow its patents to be used by other companies. Imitators and cheap knockoffs have of course appeared, however they do not use out patented technology and are not FDA approved. During the treatment, Zerona shines five non-heating low level lasers onto the desired treatment areas. The laser lights are visible, but the re is no sensation during or after the treatment. Unlike liposuction surgery, Zeltiq, mesotherapy, or other body-contouring procedures, nothing ever touches or harms the skin. The low level lasers target the fat cells causing them to temporarily open and expel the contents of fat. The empties fat is moves through the lymphatic system to the liver, where is it processed into the bowel movement.
Fat cells like grapes, are empties of their contents and turned into raisins; leaving a flatter waist, tummy, etc.
In addition to being a painless process, there are no side effects. No recovery, no bruising, no swelling, and no downtime. You can return immediately to normal activity including exercise following your laser session.
In the study the FDA used to grant Zerona full approval, patients lost an average of 3.51 inches and up to a maximum of 9 inches.
Michelle, treated by Dr. Elwell, said: "I would never do liposuction, but I'm impressed with how easy and risk-free the procedure was. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to lose a little around the middle."
A More Complicated and Detailed Explanation
The Zerona™ procedure was proven through a double blind, randomized, multi-site and placebo controlled study in which patients averaged a loss of 3.64 inches compared to the placebo group that lost only half an inch.
Below are a series of images taken with a scanning electron microscope during the procedure.
The stunning series of photographs impressively demonstrate how the Zerona Colorado laser can open the fat cells and release the contents for removal. As you can see, the fat cells collapse without being damaged; therefore no scarring or damage is done to the body and no recovery is needed, no side effects are experienced.
This pore formation is the direct result of laser stimulation, and the reason why the triglycerides and fatty acids move into extracellular (lymph) space. The pore is not damaging to the cell, but simply serves as a means for the fatty contents to evacuate. The formation of the temporary pore is the result of a series of secondary reactions originating in the mitochondria.
All of the SEM, TEM, MRI and all other research listed on this website was performed using an Erchonia Zerona laser. Erchonia only uses its own research to prove its patented applications. Copycat Lasers use the research Erchonia publishes, but are unable to use Erchonia's patents for their lasers.
The cold laser technology behind the Zerona procedure was shown to exclusively release the cellular contents of fat cells while leaving the capillaries and other cells within the interstitial space intact. The release of the fat cells contents is the result of the disruption of the cell's membrane. This membrane disruption, called a transitory (temporary) pore, is the result of low-level laser stimulation.
Prior to laser exposure, fat cells have a regular, cluster shape, as seen in Figure 4. Within minutes of low level laser exposure, fat cells begin to develop temporary pores as indicated by arrows in Figures 6-9. This pore allows emptying of the cell's contents into extracellular space (Figure 7). Once the contents of the fat cell have been emptied (figure 10), they are released into the interstitial space where it can be passed through the body during the normal course of detoxification.
Through a double blind, randomized, multi-site and placebo-controlled study, the Zerona denver procedure is proved to be an effective non-invasive cold laser weight loss and body contouring procedure. On average, patients lost 3.51 inches from the circumference of their waist, hips ,and thighs, whereas the placebo group only lost and average of half an inch. (LINK) The Zerona cold lasers provide patients with a safer alternative to surgical procedures, which can result in bruising, swelling, and damage to other tissues. With Zerona Denver there is no pain and no need for anesthesia. Unlike other non-invasive approaches, Zerona low-level lasers do not rely on heating tissue, which can be painful and damaging. There is no downtime, so patients can resume their normal activities immediately.
First used to facilitate liposuction procedures, early lasers made by Zerona manufacturer Erchonia were noted to improve liposuction through a preoperative treatment. (LINK)
The original goal had been to shorten recovery time and reduce pain; surprisingly though, surgeons noticed the fat being removed by the vacuum catheter was liquefied rather than the usual 'chunky' consistency. As Erchonia investigated, they discovered that indeed the laser was liquefying the fat, and ultimately they found that even without the surgical procedure, the fat would be removed by the body via the lymph, liver and intestines...and the Zerona was born.
The Zerona laser is the only laser fully approved as effective by the FDA for fat removal body contouring. The only FDA approved non-surgical, non-invasive alternative to liposuction surgery.

The Zerona Colorado Treatment Experience
The treatment takes place in a private room with a soothing atmosphere.
Here, the patient will need to change into proper attire: either a hospital gown will be provided, or the patient can choose to wear bathing suit, workout attire, or undergarments. (Keep in mind, the more direct skin contact the laser has, the more effective the results). We have both male and female staff, choose which makes you more comfortable.
Prior to the 1st treatment target areas are measured, then each laser session begins with a Lymphatic Drainage Treatment.
Next begins the Zerona laser session. While lying down comfortably, the five Zerona laser heads are focused over the skin of the desired area(s) to be treated. There are some options to patients; however for body contouring the patient will be treated for twenty minutes on the front of the target area. Other treatments such as chin contouring or eye bags, arms and bust have shorter treatment times. Then the patient will turn over and the back will be treated for another twenty minutes. (A staff member will restart the laser treatment once the patient has turned over).
Throughout the Zerona Colorado laser session, our warm and relaxing Far-Infra Red Detoxification Treatment is applied.
Each visit lasts just under 60 minutes. A total of 6 sessions (or 9 for the ambitious) completes the program.
FAQs (frequently asked questions)
We have two programs of care: 6 or 9 sessions. All the research and measurement averages are based on 6 sessions. The additional laser sessions of the package of 9 will of course improve results, and again without risk or side effects.
Yes. ZERONA™ is FULLY FDA APPROVED EFFECTIVE. The wording here is very important. Other lasers will claim FDA approval, however what they really have is just "FDA clearance" which means they have attempted to copy the technology that Erchonia and Zerona have patented and which Erchonia does not share. Zerona is the only laser that can legally state that it permanently removes fat. The proof of this is in the 501c FDA approval letter that clearly states this. LINK No other laser has this because no other laser passed the FDA strict testing process...instead they have been "FDA cleared" meaning their laser will not likely injure you, but makes no assurances that the laser will work.
I realize the jargon is confusing; I also think it important consumers know that unscrupulous companies and providers are taking advantage of the confusing language.
No. Erchonia manufacturers the Zerona and does not share patent permission with any other laser manufacturers. IF you have been told a knockoff was FDA approved, ask to see a copy of the official FDA approval letter. (Here is a LINK to ours)
Erchonia is a pioneer in the field of Cold Lasers; and most importantly has proven the quality of their devices by attaining FDA Approvals. To date they have approvals for Fat Removal (Zerona) at the waist, hips, thigh, & arms, acne treatment, laser assisted liposuction, pain reduction of carpal tunnel syndrome, and pain reduction / scar reduction post surgery.
No other laser manufacturer has gone to such lengths for FDA approvals. The other companies seem to be satisfied with "FDA clearance" which means they did not submit to any testing, but merely sent the FDA a blueprint and general description.
Furthermore, Erchonia does not share its patents with other laser manufacturers. The only way to treat with the technology that earned FDA approval based on scientific review and reproducible results is to use the Erchonia Zerona laser.
There are more than 3000 published studies in medical journals that demonstrate the abilities of cold laser to treat many conditions such as acute and chronic pain, scar treatment, burn/skin treatment, acne treatment and pre- and post-operative treatment, without any negative side-effects.
The U.S. government maintains an exhaustive webite www.pubmed.gov where anyone can search published research related to medical research. For laser research I suggest the search terms: "LLLT" (for low level laser therapy), or "Photobiomodulation."
NO - The Zerona™ is a low-level "cold" laser that emits a painless beam of light which targets the fat cells beneath the skin. No tissue damage means no painful recovery.
Essential if you want to achieve the best results.
The Zerona™ laser reduces contours due to excess fat, not cellulite. However, as Dr. Oz recently stated, no creams will ever reduce cellulite, because cellulite is caused by excess fat in the fat cell which stretches against connective tissue creating the dimple appearance. And YES, Zerona will reduce the amount of fat in those cells.
Fat removed by the Zerona™ is metabolized and removed by the body in the bowel movements. Fat that has left the body cannot fat deposit elsewhere; because it is gone!
The fat has left the body, the only way for it to return is through your mouth. As with liposuction, gaining weight by poor diet and exercise habits may replace the fat removed by the Zerona™ laser. Just as if you were to stop strict dieting or exercise without reducing calorie intake, if you take in more calories than you use, fat will accumulate.
Result begin immediately, which is why we measure immediately after the Qualifying Consult to determine if you results will be good.
Unlike Liposuction Surgery, Zeltiq, MesotherapyTM, LipodisolveTM, and other invasive procedures, with Zerona nothing ever touches the skin. Zerona laser denver is completely non-invasive.
Since no damage is done to the tissues under the skin, there is no risk for unsightly bumps or uneven contours as result of destruction and removal of the fat cells.
And of course since there are no recorded side effects with Low-Level Laser Therapy, this non-invasive procedure is safer.
Color of skin does not alter the Zerona's effectiveness. Since January of 2009, I have personally worked with all types and colors with successful results. Experience and research have shown that additional time is needed with very dark skin; with that extra time great results are still achieved.
About half the cost of liposuction surgery.
We also have a policy of matching local and current Groupons, Living Social, and similar deals.
For the typical cost of liposuction surgery (before adding anesthesiology and additional hospital fees)

Yes, financing is offered through Care Credit (LINK)
We also accept VISA, MasterCard, Cash and Check
There have been no reported serious side effects. To be cautious we will not treat near the eyes or allow the eyes to be exposed to the lasers; this is more out of common sense, and not because of some reported incident. There are no contraindications with this device that would pose a serious health risk. We do restrict those with pacemakers, active cancer, certain inflammatory, lymphatic, liver, and/or kidney disorders, cardiovascular disease, or are pregnant. All of this can be answered in a brief initial consultation which is always at no charge.
Additionally, I believe patients with Multiple Sclerosis should NOT undergo this procedure.
SIDE BENEFIT - The laser also acts on collagen, improving the health and elasticity of this tissue. (references: Lasers Med Sci. 2011 July 15, J Photochem Photobiol B. 2011 Oct 5; 105 (1): 51-59. Epub 2011 Jul 6., Lasers Surg Med. 2010 Aug; 42 (6): 546-52., Photomed Laser Surg. 2009 Apr;27(2):303-7.,)
SIDE BENEFIT - Reducing abdominal fat reduces risk of death from cancer and cardiovascular disease (reference: Pischon T, Boeing H, Hoffman K, et al. General and Abdominal Adiposity and Risk of Death in Europe. New England Journal of Medicine 2008;359:2105-2120.)
SIDE BENEFIT - Reducing your BMI (body mass index) decreases your risk of diabetes, heart disease and arthritis and will earn you discounted insurance rates (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17385151/)
SIDE BENEFIT - Detoxification: removal of excess fat also assists in removal of toxins stored in the fat.
SIDE BENEFIT – Scientific study demonstrated that treatment with the Zerona laser reduces Leptin (the hormone triggering appetite and effecting energy expenditure) (LINK)
SIDE BENEFIT – Scientific study finds that treatment with the Zerona laser leads to a reduction in blood levels of LDL cholesterol (Bad Cholesterol) (LINK)

I am trying to create a fillable form in Word for Mac 2011.
I have my form all completed and it functions properly, except when the user hits the ENTER key instead of the TAB key, it inserts a line into the form which changes the originally intended layout.
It is my understanding that a Macro to can "tell" the ENTER key to act as a TAB key. I found the four-part formula for this Macro, but have absolutely no clue how to create it for this form.

The first trailer for "The Walking Dead" Season 5 was revealed this past week at Comic-Con. It features a lot of action, and of course, walkers. Since production began shooting this upcoming season, a lot of brutality and shocking scenes have been teased. Just how long do we have to wait for those scenes though? On Monday, CinemaBlend revealed that the wait won't be long at all. Note that spoilers are ahead if you are not caught up to "The Walking Dead."
According to the source, "The Walking Dead" will return in high gear with an intense introduction. "In fact, from what we were told at Comic-Con by some of the cast and writers, it sounds like the first six minutes of Season 5 are going to be brutal," CinemaBlend shares.
Who spoiled that the first six minutes will be intense? Showrunner Scot Gimple and Andrew Lincoln (Rick) himself. About the scene, Lincoln says, "All of us were just dumbstruck and said, 'We're not going to be able to show this…'"
Remember episode 14 "The Grove" from Season 4? The events in that episode were very controversial. Also, who can forget the famous Rick bite? Is there a scene coming up in the first episode of Season 5 that tops these two? Apparently so.
No details have been spoiled from the cast and crew, but I'm guessing this has to do with Terminus' cannibalism. My guess is that they will be showing people at Terminus helping themselves to human flesh, or preparing to cook up some flesh.
If you watch the trailer, pause at the 16 second mark. Rick spots a blurry scene. It appears to be a person leaning over a body. The image never comes to full focus, but it's not hard to guess what could be going on.
Could this be the brutal speculation? If so, I wonder how much of it they will get away with showing. Can't wait to find out! "The Walking Dead" Season 5 returns to AMC on October 12. Stay tuned for the latest spoilers and information.

Photo of Asher Roth (c) Hannibal Matthews
By Mawuse Ziegbe
One of my favorite songs right now is Jack Peñate's calypso-laced "Tonight's Today." The cheery percussion is buoyed by a heady choir, balmy guitar, plucky Kalimba and possibly the best of the use cowbell since The Rapture. A pale English kid with artfully mussed hair who's besties with stars like Adele and The Maccabees, his 2007 debut Matinee features jittery rock with faint doses of ska tossed in for good measure. But any pouty kid with a garage and some guyliner can churn out guitar-driven pop. Cheers to Jack and his beachy jam; I raise my Mai-Tai in praise.
Another music man I must toast is Asher Roth. (Yes, that stoner kid with that stoner anthem, "I Love College.") He and Chester French rocked the Blender Theater the day after the release of his debut, Asleep In The Bread Aisle. And I had so much fun! He and his equally blithe crew ripped songs like "Lion's Roar" and "Be By Myself." The band joined him for a quick rendition of Soul For Real's "Candy Rain," complete with the cheese-laden '90s dance moves and then Beanie Sigel bounded out of irrelevancy to kick a verse. When the crowd erupted during "She Don't Want A Man," the flail of uncoordinated frat-boy arms was almost poetic. I was truly converted when he fired off a pro-organic food freestyle that both dropped jaws and silenced nonbelievers. The gleefully drunken college kid thing usually screams shallow, trendy hype but I really can't hate on this. Sometimes, blonds just have more fun.
And if you're into fun your new favorite band is Buraka Som Sistema. The Portuguese collective infuses the snappy Angolan genre of Kuduro with gritty club beats on their LP Black Diamond. They gripped a sold-out Bowery Ballroom with their urgent dance-or-die rhythms. I've posted up in more than a few venues but I've never seen New Yorkers go batshit like that. The group is officially four dudes but guest frontwoman/dancer/party-starter MC Blaya shut it down with her tremulous booty. The crowd bounced en masse, yelping along to hits like "Sounds Of Kuduro" and Buraka barely left the stage before the revelers whooped for an encore. Then, while DJ Sega gracefully crowd-surfed, the rest of the band splattered the audience with a Super Soaker.
Also doing the tour thing is Grammy-winning songstress Chrisette Michele. Her jazzy style harks back to that gin-swishing, smoking coat era when dames were dames and she flaunted her sass throughout her hour-long BB King's set with angsty anecdotes about men who done done her wrong. With her platinum pixie and prefacing of "Best Of Me" with "has anyone ever fallen in love with an idiot?" she read like an adult contemporary Etta James. She also chatted about her John Legend collaboration, "Love Is You" breezed through her boppy single "Epiphany," and enjoyed a brief guest appearance from Danity Kane's D. Woods. Even with post-breakup bitterness, a 45-minute wait and random pop vixen cameos, the crowd was enamored with her. And that's what makes a dame, a dame.
