Catholic brother jailed over indecent assaults on students
- From: AAP
- February 22, 2013
A FORMER Catholic brother who spanked the bare backsides of students under the guise of punishment has been jailed.
Edward Mamo, 68, would often touch himself and make comments to the students while hitting them, the Victorian County Court heard.
Judge Julian Leckie said Mamo, who worked as a bus driver and sports coach at Monivae College in Hamilton, was guilty of a serious breach of trust.
"You breached that duty of care by sexually interfering with them," Judge Leckie told Mamo.
"They suffered and continue to suffer emotional and psychological trauma as a result of your offending."
He sentenced Mamo to two years and three months in jail, with a minimum term of 18 months.
Mamo pleaded guilty to seven counts of indecent assault on seven schoolboys over a four-year period in the 1970s.
Three victims were in court today for the sentencing.
One victim welcomed the decision and flagged pending civil action by the group of victims against the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, which ran the school.
"We've achieved the goal of getting him off the streets," the victim said outside court.

Hi everyone,
I have been trying to figure out how to organise a progressive dinner but am really struggling !
25 people
4 different rooms
3 courses
ideally we don't want people to meet more than once, but I understand it is not really possible.
Would be really grateful for some guidance !
Hi aavian;
I have never seen one for 25 people. Perhaps if you reduced it to 24 people or added 2 people?
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
A number by itself is useful, but it is far more useful to know how accurate or certain that number is.

The Boston Architectural College (BAC) is an independent, professional college in Boston's Back Bay that provides an exceptional design education by combining academic learning with innovative experiential learning and by making its programs accessible to diverse communities. The College offers professional and accredited graduate and undergraduate degrees in architecture, interior architecture, landscape architecture, and design studies.
The core of the BAC experience is a unique learning model where design education happens in the classroom and in the professional workplace simultaneously. Students acquire vital professional skills and expertise through hands-on projects and real-world employment while attending their classes and studios onsite or online, earning credit and gaining experience in both settings.
Founded in 1889 as a club for practicing architects, the BAC has remained closely tied to Boston's professional design community throughout its history. Students are taught, mentored, and advised by over 400 practicing professionals, strengthening the connection between workplace experience and classroom learning. BAC graduates are accomplished designers with impressive resumes, portfolios, and professional networks.
The BAC is located in the heart of Boston's historic Back Bay, surrounded by inspiring architecture, museums, performance venues, and colleges and universities, making it a strategic place to study design. Alongside its traditional onsite programs, the BAC offers innovative distance graduate degrees in architecture, interior architecture, and design studies, including pioneering programs in sustainable design, historic preservation, and design for human health.
The BAC strives to make the design professions accessible to diverse communities. Its policy of open admission makes a design education possible for many talented students who would not otherwise be afforded such an opportunity. Its student body includes a large population of first-generation college students as well as members of under-represented groups, fostering a rich and inclusive learning environment.
Mission: The BAC provides excellence in design education emerging from practice and accessible to diverse communities.
Vision: To be the recognized leader in the education of design professionals, connecting theory and practice and engaging educators, practitioners, allied professions and the public.
Click the map to explore Boston
History of the BAC
The Boston Architectural College was established as a club in 1889. Its members held lectures, mounted exhibitions, and critiqued each other's work, and novice draftsmen could take affordable classes from practiced professionals. In the 1940s, the curriculum was modernized to emphasize history, theory, materials, and methods. In the 1960s, the BAC began integrating applied learning in firms directly into the curriculum, a program that evolved in today's Practice component. In 1971, the BAC's Certificate of Completion became the first professionally accredited architecture program with a work component in the US. Over the next 20 years, the BAC introduced graduate and undergraduate programs in interior architecture, landscape architecture, and design studies.
Diversity Statement
The Boston Architectural College is committed to promoting a community that celebrates, affirms, and vigorously pursues inclusiveness in all its forms.
Excellent design integrates diverse skills and problem solving approaches to meeting client needs. Combining divergent ways of thinking, non-traditional approaches to solving problems, multi-cultural awareness, sensitivity to the needs of persons who may be different from ourselves, tolerance of ideas we may not initially understand, and openness to new ways of addressing needs is essential to achieving thoughtful, creative, innovative and client-centered design. Through multiple design disciplines, and through our insistence on learning from diverse ways of approaching design solutions, the Boston Architectural College expresses its fundamental commitment to being an open and welcoming community. We strive to effectively serve diverse clients in a multi-cultural world.
As the largest independent, multi-disciplinary college of spatial design in the United States, the Boston Architectural College (BAC) has opportunities to influence the future viability of the design professions. Sustainable design professions require diversity and inclusivity in their approaches to serving clients. The BAC strives to increase diversity among those who study, work, teach and practice Architecture, Interior Architecture, Landscape Architecture and a wide range of allied fields.
The BAC's diversity vision is to be a vibrant, inclusive learning community where all members are respected, welcomed and enabled to thrive. As this vision is realized, the College will reflect diversity in its student body, faculty, curriculum, Practice learning, and in the ways that we teach and learn.
The Boston Architectural College's audited financial statements are available upon request from Kathy Rood, Vice President of Finance and Administration.
The Boston Architectural College's publications are available upon request from Evan Gallivan, Vice President of Institutional Advancement.

Yet another question on how wireless CLS works!
I'm trying to further my understanding of how the CLS system works with wireless slave flashes using the SB800/S800/SU800 system. There are a few (!) points that bother me; maybe someone can clarify.
1) If I understand correctly, in the past, cameras handled automatic flash exposure by measuring the light being received by the camera during the exposure, and shutting off flash output when sufficient light was received for the exposure.
2) With the CLS system, a series of "monitor preflashes" are emited by the flash, and the reflected light is used by the camera to determine the correct flash output for that exposure.
3) Question 1: Does that mean that with CLS in iTTL mode, the monitor preflashes are used to set the exposure, and the camera then DOES NOT meter during the exposure to shut off the flash; and the flash output is preset by the preflashes before the exposure begins? Or, is there also metering during the exposure, and if so, what benefit does the preflash add? (I assume, based on what have written, that the preflashes are used to set the exposure, and there is no metering to adjust this during the actual exposure).
4) When the SB800 is used in the master mode, the monitor preflashes also use pulse-code modulation to transmit exposure information to each slave flash. What I don't understand is exactly how this is determined. The master obviously does not have any way to know how many slaves there are, as the wireless communication is one way, Master -> Slave. As a result, while the master can determine a correct exposure via the monitor preflashes, HOW exactly does it make the adjustment for the contribution of the slave flashes?
As a example, suppose I have one slave flash, set to a 0.0 exposure compensation. If I added in a second slave right next to the first, also at 0.0, then I've doubled the light coming from that source, and obviously that changes the exposure. Now, it would make no sense for the master to note that and reduce the output of each slave by 1/2 to maintain the same exposure, when presumably my intent was to double the light from that source.
From this, I am reasoning that the monitor preflashes from the master are used to select the correct exposure which is done fully independently of the presence, absence, number of slaves in the system, and only trial and error can really be used to adjust the compensation on the slaves.
If I added, for instance, a diffuser between the slave and the subject, and wanted the same amount of light to hit the subject from that flash, just more difuse, I would then need to increase the exposure compensation for that slave to account for the light loss from the diffuser, because the CLS system cannot do this automatically for me.
Do I understand this correctly?

#1. "RE: Yet another question on how wireless CLS works!" | In response to Reply # 0Thu 30-Mar-06 09:21 AM
Yes, the preflashes alone are used to determine the subsequent flash output for proper exposure.
Slaves are grouped into three groups. During preflash, the CLS master commands (via PCM, as you said) each group to preflash, and the camera measures the resulting exposure. The master then sends codes to each group to set the flash output level of that group for exposure, then commands all flashes to fire simultaneously once the shutter is open.
So, if you have multiple flashes in a group, they are all commanded to the same output level. If you don't want them commanded to the same level, you must put them in different groups. It is true that if you have multiple flashes in the same group at different distances from the subject, they will not contribute equally to the lighting of the subject, but you chose to have that happen by placing them at different distances but in the same CLS group. (Which can be a useful technique, of course.)
Since each group is preflashed and commanded independently by the master, if you put a diffuser screen between one remote and the subject, and if that remote is in its own group, CLS will compensate for the diffuser because during preflash, the camera will see how much of the flash's light is making it to the subject, and the CLS master will then command the flash to output accordingly.
That, at least, is how it appears to me to work.

I realized after I wrote my question that the available documentation does say that with iTTL, all metering is done via the preflash and there is no metering during the actual exposure. I had missed that the first time through.
Where I was unclear was on whether the slave groups fire a preflash for exposure or not. I tried to figure this out from watching them in operation, but I wasn't really sure if the slaves were firing a preflash or not.

If you use the FV Lock function of your D70, the preflashes will occur when you press the AE-L/AF-L button. That way you can see the preflashes separately from the illumination flash.

Assuming that the master unit controls the remote(s) using its main flash head, I was wondering about the commander unit of the SB-R1C1. This doesn't have a flash head; just a red window which appears to be similar to the AF assist window of the SB-800. Does it control using IR? I've not been able to play with one to find out.

There are lights and sensors behind the "red window" the lights provide the preflash light and the sensors gather the data. Since the communication is by infrared light, one does not see it.

The slaves use an IR sensor. A regular flash emits enough energy in the IR region to trigger the slave's IR sensor, but the R1C1's SU-800 commander unit uses IR directly. One reason why is because it is intended to be used for macro work, where even the relatively low-power flash from an SB-800 in master (only) mode could cause unwanted illumination of the close-in subject. Using IR for the master eliminates that problem.

Natalie Merchant Autumn Lullaby Lyrics
Last updated: 10/22/2010 12:00:00 PM
The sun has gone from the shining skies
Bye, baby, bye
The dandelions have closed their eyes
Bye, baby, bye
The stars are lighting their lamps to see
The babes and squirrels and birds and bees
Are sound asleep as they ought to be
Bye, baby, bye.
The squirrel keeps warm in his furs of gray
Bye, baby, bye
'Neath feathers, birdies are tucked away
Bye, baby, bye
The robin's home is a nest o'erhead
The bees, they nest in a hive instead
My baby's nest is her little bed
Bye, baby, bye.

The first day myself and my boyfriend walked into the dealership, a girl assisted me, wrote up all the details and the car I was interested in and told us to walk around and someone would be back with us. We waited 45 minutes and went back only to be told that we had to wait for the finance manager.
We were back there every day of the next week, being bounced around, ignored, left to wait for hours. I guess we should have known better by this treatment, but, we kept going back.
Finally, we got a finance manager to speak to us, and I was told that I didn't make enough money, which wasn't true, however I offered to have my boyfriend co sign, and then they decided to let us get a loan. They asked me what car I was interested in, and I picked the exact car off the lot that I was leasing and asked a round about price.
Once I showed interest in one car, they refused to show me anything else. Going back and forth trying to get me to buy the car I asked about. Finally, after my boyfriend and I deciding that the price was too high, they brought me out an older, scratched, tin can of a car to look at. I agreed to buy it.
When I got to the table, we were back on the first car. We agreed to the car and we were whisked outside and told to take it home. Come back tomorrow, we were told. When we got there, the monthly payment was ridiculous. I said no. We went home and after a few days, called to see if we could look at something cheaper. We got a call back telling us that they got us a lower payment. When we arrived to sign, I was informed that the lower payment would only hold if my boyfriend was the primary signer. I refused. I went home and was called and told they would do it with my name as the primary, his as the cosigner. When I got my first bill in the mail, HIS name is the only one on the bill! UNBELIEVABLE!
I was told that anytime I brought my car in for service, I would be given a loaner car. When I called to schedule an appointment for service, and asked about a loaner, they said, "No. Sorry. we can't give you a loaner!" I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy.
This is no way to do business. I was very disappointed and now, I have to try to refinance this loan through a bank to get it into my name! Don't buy from these people. I didn't buy a hyundai, so I don't know if they are reliable cars, but, the people who operate this business should be exposed!

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- A Jackson State spokesman has announced that Saturday's game against Grambling has been cancelled.
JSU spokesman Wesley Peterson told The Associated Press Friday that Jackson State had been contacted by Grambling officials who informed them of the decision.
Disgruntled Grambling players had refused to travel to Mississippi. Grambling spokesman Will Sutton had said there would be "no forfeit" and that Grambling officials were trying to determine the next step.
Apparently, nothing could be worked out so that the game could be played.
Southwestern Athletic Conference Commissioner Duer Sharp said the situation was "very disappointing."

He explained that he was from Italy, and had lost all of his money at the local casino, but needed to pay for his rental car, for which he produced a receipt. He also stated that he needed to catch his flight back to Italy, and wouldn't make it unless he had some help. He was seeking $400. in cash, and wanted to trade "leather" jackets for this favor. My husband took pity on him and gave his the $135.00 he had in his wallet. The man in turn gave him 4 jackets and a business card and left quickly.

Salido: I Want to Break Broner's Jaw, Get My Hair Brushed
by Chris Robinson
This is definitely a cherished time in the career of WBO featherweight champion Orlando Salido.
With an electrifying pair of TKO victories of Puerto Rico's Juan Manuel Lopez within the span of a year, Salido has a special kind of buzz surrounding him that only comes with fighters in the sport who are guaranteed to bring some kind of excitement each time out.
And while Salido, who holds a 38-11-2 record with 26 knockouts, may have been brought in as the proverbial opponent against Cuba's Yuriorkis Gamboa in September of 2010 as well as his first fight with Lopez last April, he now has both Showtime and HBO interested in his services for a showcase all his own later in the year.
I caught up with Salido on late Sunday afternoon, as he was joined on the phone by his manager Sean Gibbons as well as international matchmaker, advisor, and promoter Sampson Lewkowicz, who was kind enough to do the translating for us on this day.
As our conversation started off, it became very clear that Salido has been doing some deep thinking on his career, as he seems less than enthused when eyeing the landscape of the featherweight division.
"Now I see that there is nobody at 126 that is an attractive opponent for myself, so I am thinking maybe I should move up to join the 130-pounders," stated Salido, who hails from Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. "I would love to fight [Adrien] Broner at 130, but with one condition. After the fight, after I knock out Broner, I want his father to brush my own hair."
Salido's comment was a definite dig at the Cincinnati, Ohio native, the present holder of the WBO junior featherweight championship, as Broner caused a bit of a stir after his knockout over Vicente Martin Rodriguez last November when he asked for father Thomas to brush his hair amidst his post-fight interview with HBO analyst Max Kellerman so that he looked good enough for the millions watching.
Broner is one of the most animated and exuberant fighters in the sport yet Salido seems to have a real disdain towards the 22-year old's confident ways.
"He's always cocky because he never really fought anybody," Salido said. "He fought finished fighters or nobodies and he's so arrogant that I want to shut his mouth. The only thing I'm thinking of now is Broner. He has a big mouth and he likes to dance but I want to break his jaw. I will do exactly the same thing to him that I did to Lopez."
Whether you love Broner or loathe him, you can't deny that he is a special kind of talent inside of the ring. But such a fact seems to be easily dismissed by Salido, who feels that finding a way to make Broner fight a good ol' fashioned dog fight is the remedy for taking away his undefeated record.
"It's simple. Nobody puts pressure on him and nobody confronts him and fights him," Salido stated. "I plan to do that. I have the qualifications and I am strong enough to stand up and fight toe to toe. I'm looking forward to that fight."
Expect more from Salido in the coming days…

The small island of Pianosa (Italian pronunciation: [pjaˈnoːza]), about 10.25 km2 (3.96 sq mi) in area, has a coastal perimeter of 26 km (16 mi) and forms part of Italy's Tuscan Archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea.
In Roman times the island was named Planasia (plain) because of its flatness - its highest point stands at 29 m (95 ft) above sea level. It is a triangular-shaped land mass 14 km (9 mi) south west of Elba, and is a frazione of the municipality of Campo nell'Elba. Pianosa is the fifth biggest island of the Tuscan Archipelago and the only one to be formed out of sedimentary rock of the Neogene and Quaternary; such fossils as echinoderms, mollusca and bryozoa of the Pliocene are frequently found. [1]
The vegetation consists mainly of Mediterranean species as lentisco, fennel, juniperus, rosemary and pinus halepensis, which was introduced on the island in the 1900s.
The animals living on the island are largely small mammals, such as hedgehog and hare, introduced in the 1800s, as well as the pheasant and the red-legged partridge; the magpie and the Audouin's gull nest along the coast and are protected by the National Park. The island is a stopping place for migrating birds in their seasonal passage from North to South. The sea around Pianosa is rich in fish because the coast was unapproachable for a long time, while today National Park regulations forbid fishing. grouper, dory, dentex, moray, crawfish and many other species of fish inhabit the seas around the island. [2]
The island was first inhabited in the Upper Palaeolithic, the Later Stone Age, but when in 5000 BC the sea level augmented and reached the current, the few inhabitants took refuge on the nearby Scola islet where traces of their stay were found. Fishing tools and ceramic of the Mesolithic were found as well as artefacts in quartz and flint probably coming from Elba.[3] The ancient Romans' Planasia had buildings and was extensively cultivated. It became noted in history when the princeps Augustus banished his grandson and former designated heir Agrippa Postumus there in 6 or 7 AD. [4] Postumus remained there until his execution, made by a murderer sent by Tiberius, around the death of Augustus in 14 AD. Postumus lived in Pianosa at Villa Agrippa which was discovered by abbot Gaetano Chierici in the second part of 1800s and was composed by a theatre, a thermal and marine environments (Bagni di Agrippa) and a Roman villa with black and white mosaic floors with marine mythological decorations.[5]
In the 4th century a small Christian community lived in Pianosa and left traces of their presence since excavated the catacombs which are on two levels and are the largest north of Rome; 700 catacombs were discovered which indicates a fair numbers of residents.
Pisa had the island in custody after the victory in a naval battle in those waters occurred in 874. In the Middle Ages the island's ownership was disputed by Pisa and Genoa because of its strategic position. In 1238 Genoa sent troops on the island supposing the inhabitants exercised the piracy; destroyed the village and the fortifications built by the Pisans and made prisoners the 150 inhabitants. Pianosa returned shortly after to Pisa, but Genoa had the supremacy of the Tyrrhenian Sea after the Battle of Meloria. The island came back once under the control of Pisa by an agreement with which had to left it uncultivated and uninhabited, but the pact was not honoured. The Appiano family, who ruled Pisa, gave the island on rent to the family De Leis then to the Landi in 1344. The Appiano sold Pisa to Gian Galeazzo Visconti in 1399 and established the small Principality of Piombino which included Suvereto, Scarlino, Vignale, Populonia and the islands of Elba, Montecristo and Pianosa. The Holy Roman Emperor Charles V of Spain on August 15, 1552 consigned to Cosimo I de' Medici the Principality of Piombino in exchange of a loan of 200,000 scudi. [6]
Pianosa underwent numerous incursions by pirates but the worst of all was that took place in 1553 by a French Turkish fleet commanded by Dragut who wiped out the population, from then on the island changed several times of ownership and was populated only seasonally from farmers coming from Elba to cultivate. On August 27, 1802 Napoleon established that Elba, Capraia, Gorgona, Pianosa, Palmaiola and Montecristo were part of the French territory and in 1805 assigned to his sister Elisa Bonaparte the region of Piombino, Elba and Pianosa that was fortified. On April 9, 1809 the Archipelago returned to the Tuscany which was ruled by the French; a month later Pianosa was attacked by 150 British soldiers arrived aboard of three vessels, they destroyed the tower, captured the French soldiers, sent back to Elba the farmers and left the island desert. Napoleon went to Pianosa from Elba twice, made rebuilt the tower, placed a garrison to defend the island and built some houses to settle the farmers. The Congress of Vienna assigned the Elba and the Tuscan Archipelago to the Grand Duke of Tuscany. Although 18th century documents report that it was once densely wooded, humans and the animals they brought have destroyed the trees on the island, which is now largely grassland except some coastal area. [7]
Penal colony[edit]
In 1856, Leopold II, Grand Duke of Tuscany established a penal colony in Pianosa because it was considered a perfect place to isolate, segregate and oversee detainees; at the proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861, there were 149 prisoners on the island. In 1864 a structure able to contain 350 prisoners was built, but in 1872 the island was divided into numerous farms organizing the inmates as small communities; in 1880 there were 960 detainees. The captives cultivated cereals, produced oil and wine as Sangiovese and Procanico, there were poultry, pigs and cattle farms. From 1884 until 1965 Pianosa hosted convicts, coming from all over Italy, affected by tuberculosis because of its healthy climate. At the beginning of the 1900s, the population on the island was 21 civilians, 80 prison guards, 40 soldiers and 800 prisoners. The former President of the Republic of Italy Sandro Pertini became an inmate in 1932 for political reasons. During World war II, on September 17, 1943, Germans troops invaded Pianosa and occupied it; on March 19, 1944 a French commando landed on the island, and after a short firefight left again, taking away 40 prison guards as hostages; the following month an allied bomber attacked the island, killing six people. [8]
In the post war period the colony returned to its original role. A Carabinieri station was established, as was a detachment of Guardia di Finanza and houses were built to accommodate the families of the soldiers. In the 1970s, on order of General Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa the former sanatorium named Agrippa Branch, was transformed into a maximum security prison to confine Mafia bosses and terrorists of the Red Brigades, such as Giovanni Senzani, Renato Curcio, Alberto Franceschini and Bruno Seghetti. Under the article 41-bis prison regime, 600 convicts from all over Italy were transferred to Pianosa in May 1977 in only two days by aircraft and helicopters.[9] A reinforced concrete wall, 6 meters high and 3 km (2 mi) long, was built in 1979 to separate the village from the penitentiary. The killing of the judges Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino in 1992 led to the reopening of the Agrippa Branch under the 41-bis regime and during the night of July 20, fifty five Mafia bosses incarcerated at the Palermo Ucciardone prison, among them Michele Greco, were transferred by military transport aircraft to Pisa Airport and then to Pianosa by helicopters. [10]
The island became an impenetrable and inapproachable fortress until July 17, 1997, when Gaetano Murana, the last 41-bis prison regime detainee, was transferred to another prison; up to this date Pianosa had hosted Mafia bosses like Pippo Calò, Nitto Santapaola and Giovanni Brusca and had become well known for the brutality inflicted on the prisoners. [11] The Prodi government decided to close the penitentiary definitely on June 28, 1998. Pianosa was evacuated in a single day by the remaining detainees and residents, and only a few guards remained on the island for surveillance. [12][13]
Marine protected area[edit]
Pianosa is part of the Arcipelago Toscano National Park, which has been a marine protected area since 1996 in order to preserve its archaeological and environmental heritage, until now saved because of its inaccessibility to tourism. The island may be visited daily by 250 tourists but fishing, diving, or anchoring are not allowed without a special authorization. During the summer season Pianosa is connected once a week by Toremar from Rio Marina and Piombino,[14] from San Vincenzo by Aquavision twice a week and daily from Marina di Campo.[15] It is possible visit the island only with organized excursions or trekking by bicycle escorted by Park guides.

Geographical landmarks[edit]
Namesake in Apulia[edit]
Another island named "Pianosa" is part of the Isole Tremiti archipelago, off the Adriatic coast in the Apulia region of southern Italy, north of Monte Gargano.
In popular culture[edit]
Joseph Heller's absurdist anti-war novel Catch-22 is set on a U.S. Army Air Corps bomber squadron base on Pianosa during World War II. Heller notes in the introduction that Pianosa is obviously too small to "accommodate all the actions described." Heller's Pianosa has a small community of Italian villagers, unlike the real island. "From early May 1944 until December 1944 [Heller] was stationed on the island of Corsica where he flew sixty combat missions in B-25 'Mitchell' bombers with the 488th Bombardment Squadron, 340th Bombardment Group, 57th Bombardment Wing, 12th Air Force."[18]

Hormones, Kidney and Reproduction (BMED2406)
This unit of study examines hormonal regulation of human body functions, including metabolism, growth and development, tissue function, and mood. Specifically, students will investigate the structure and function of endocrine glands, such as the pituitary, adrenal, thyroid and pancreas, at the cellular and gross anatomical level. The fundamentals of the feedback systems which are mediated via the hypothalamus and pituitary gland are discussed, in particular, the adrenal, gonadal and thyroid axes. Students will then cover the structure and function of the renal system at both the cellular and gross anatomical level. The fundamental homeostatic processes of the kidney, such as electrolyte, water and acid-base regulation of extracellular fluid, are explored. This unit of study also gives an introduction to the reproductive system, at both the anatomical and histological level. The hormones involved in reproduction, contraception, fertilization and pregnancy are discussed, leading on to an overview of pharmacological interventions in contraception. In the practical classes, students will investigate the structure and function of the endocrine glands, and specifically perform a glucose tolerance test to investigate how glucose levels are regulated. In addition, sessions are designed to nurture oral presentation skills, hypothesis testing and data analysis.

The Remington Educational Complex in Ilion was evacuated Tuesday morning after a potential threat was identified.
"There's no concern about anybody's safety," said Herkimer BOCES District Superintendent Mark Vivacqua.
Vivacqua said he could not release what the threat was.
The complex in the former Remington Elementary School houses school-aged and adult educational programs through BOCES.
Law enforcement was immediately contacted after the threat.
District officials decided to evacuate the building based on the advice of Ilion police.
"We evacuated the building and we did a search in conjuction with other law enforcement agencies," said Ilion Police Chief Timothy Parisi.
Parisi declined to go into specifics about the threat until the department had processed all the information it had gathered.
"As soon as we have made a determination … more information will be coming," he said.
Police determined the complex is safe and district officials said students were safe throughout the process.
"Our students were never in danger," said Vivacqua. "We, however, take all threats seriously. We had a plan in place, and everything went according to that plan."
School-aged students in Pathways Academy at the Remington Educational Complex were transported to the BOCES William E. Busacker Complex in East Herkimer.
Students were dismissed and bused from there a their normal times.
Adult students were dismissed directly from the Remington Educational Complex to go home for the day.
Vivacqua said school at the complex will resume as normal on Wednesday, and there are no concerns about the safety of the students.
"The students were very well behaved during this process," he said. "We appreciate that the kids were calm, orderly and followed directions. We also appreciate that our staff acted appropriately throughout the process. The Ilion Police Department, assisted by other local law enforcements agencies ,assisted with the evacuation. Law enforcement, as always, acted swiftly and professionally."
If parents have any concerns or questions, they may contact Herkimer-Fulton-Hamilton-Otsego BOCES at 867-2000, according to the release.

Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki had quite a night, combining to hit five home runs and drive in nine in the Colorado Rockies' 12-4 win over the Cincinnati Reds Wednesday night.
When healthy, those two have proven over the years to be one of the most devastating duos in baseball, a frightening gauntlet for any pitcher who must traverse the Colorado lineup.
We know they're good; but are they the best hitting twosome in baseball?
Let's take a look at the top five hitting duos in all of baseball. While past track records will be taken into account, we'll focus on their contributions in the 2013 season to determine the best of the bunch.
All statistics are courtesy of ESPN.com and are accurate through the start of play on Thursday, June 6

By Scott M. Johnson Herald Writer
EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon's LaMichael James looked like a pretty good running back on Saturday afternoon.
But he didn't quite look like a frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy.
And against a University of Washington run defense that ranked among the bottom 10 units in the country heading into Saturday's game, that came as quite a step forward for the Huskies.
"I still think he's a heck of a running back," Huskies defensive coordinator Nick Holt said. "But I think, for the most part, our guys did a heck of a job."
James finished with 121 yards on 26 carries, with no run longer than 16 yards. His total rushing yardage and average per carry (4.7) were his second-lowest totals of the season.
"We didn't let him come out and just do it by himself," UW cornerback Quinton Richardson said. "I feel like we did a good job of that. We couldn't just let one player dominate the game. We had to take away something to get something, and I think we did that."
James went over 100 yards for the sixth time in his seven games this season. He's also the fourth consecutive running back to go over the 100-yard mark against the Huskies, who have allowed eight runners to hit that mark in nine games this season.
"Obviously it's hard to slow down a player of (James's) caliber; he's a Heisman candidate for a reason," Huskies linebacker Cort Dennison said. "But I think we did a good job of slowing them down any way we could."
Said Richardson: "I'm not anyone to take anything away from one player; he's a good player. We just contained him today."
Early promise
During a first quarter that was remarkably competitive, UW's defense held Oregon to just 49 yards and five first downs. More important, the Huskies were the first team to hold the Ducks without a first-quarter point.
"I thought we were right there in it, and that's what you want it to feel like," UW linebacker Mason Foster said. "It was going to be a heavyweight fight, and we were right there throwing blows with them."
The Huskies gave up more than 450 yards and 53 points over the final three quarters.
But the early success showed a side of UW's defense that brought a glimmer of hope for the final three games of the season.
"We've had that in us all year," said Richardson, who dropped an Oregon receiver for a four-yard loss on the Ducks' opening possession and delivered a big hit a few minutes later. "I know, for a fact, that we've showcased it before. It just finally broke out a little bit today. They're No. 1 for a reason, and we did what we could."
A half for the kickers
The position that was expected to be a footnote in Saturday's game ended up being the story of the first half.
Kickers accounted for the only points of the game's first 24 minutes, leaving the game tied 3-3. And Oregon kicker Rob Beard followed the Ducks' first touchdown by running for two points on a trick-play conversion.
UW's Erik Folk had two 52-yard attempts within two minutes of each other early in the second quarter. The first one went wide left, then Folk cleared the crossbar by at least 10 yards on his next attempt.
Folk also added a tackle on the ensuing kickoff when he pushed Ducks return man Josh Huff out of bounds at the Oregon 38.
Not to be outdone, UW punter Kiel Rasp made a touchdown-saving tackle a few minutes later when he grabbed the back of Oregon return man Cliff Harris's jersey and dragged him down near midfield.
Double duty
UW coach Steve Sarkisian spends most of his practice weeks getting the Huskies ready for games. But last week, he helped out the defense in a unique way.
The former BYU quarterback took snaps with the Huskies' scout team in an effort to prepare Washington's defense for the tempo it would see against the Ducks.
It apparently worked.
"The pace right here was nothing compared to practice," Huskies defensive tackle Alameda Ta'amu said.
Sarkisian ran the scout offense at Tuesday and Wednesday practices last week, showing signs of exhaustion after both sessions.
"Sark did a good job," linebacker Cort Dennison said. "But we got some pressure on him and got him to throw five interceptions (at Wednesday's practice)."
And if Sarkisian ever steps into that role again?
"I hope he puts some pads on," Dennison said. "I'd like to take some shots at him."
Saturday strip show
The Huskies forced four fumbles on Saturday afternoon, recovering two of them.
The biggest one came on Oregon's first possession of the second half. UW safety Nate Williams sacked Ducks quarterback Darron Thomas to force a fumble, which the Huskies recovered and followed with a touchdown pass to pull within five points, at 18-13.
"We felt like we were right there with them," linebacker Mason Foster said of that touchdown off a turnover. "I felt like we showed that we could play with them."
Unfortunately for the Huskies, Oregon outscored UW 35-3 the rest of the way.
Add it up
In the past three games — all against ranked opponents — the Huskies have allowed 1,459 yards and been outscored 138-30.
The good news is that UW is unlikely to face another ranked opponent this season.
Saturday's loss also marked the seventh consecutive time Oregon has beaten UW, which is the longest streak in the history of the series.
All seven of those losses have been by 20 points or more.
Short yardage
When Oregon's Darron Thomas broke off a 34-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, he became the fourth opposing quarterback to score on a run of 28 or more yards against UW this season. … Sarkisian said that sophomore safety Justin Glenn, a Kamiak High School graduate, suffered a concussion in the game. UW has a bye this week, so his status for the next game won't be known until later in the week. … The loss guarantees the Huskies of a record no better than .500 for the eighth year in a row.

Hi there!
Useful little plugin (:
However, it's a royal pain to tick off hundreds of checkboxes, one by one.
I've come up with a bit of javascript to toggle the entire column by clicking on the column header. There where a few css selector issues that made this really awkward to implement. Your containers for the options are all using the same 'poststuff' id. This is a nono, css ids must be unique. I would recommend generating the ids based on the options area, so for Dashboard options, the id would be poststuff-dashboard-options, Menu Options id becomes poststuff-menu-options, etc... perhaps use something less generic for the prefix... adminimize-menu-options?
The other issue is that for some custom user roles, such as the ones created by plugins, don't always match up with the name of the checkboxes. For the built in roles, it's pretty easy to select the checkboxes based on the column header... for example, the 'Deactivate for Administrator' column, I can grab the administrator role by removing 'Deactivate for' and the break tag, convert to lower case and replace spaces with underscores, be left with just the 'adminitrator' role and match all the mw_adminimize_disabled_admin_bar_administrator_items[] checkboxes. If you're using, for example, BackWPup, you get a column 'Deactivate for BackWPup jobs helper', and the checkboxes are named mw_adminimize_disabled_admin_bar_backwpup_helper_items[]. The 'backwpup_helper' part of the name doesn't line up with 'backwpup_jobs_helper'.
I've posted the necessary js (mod-adminimize.js) here: http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/2370833
In my functions.php I'm loading the js like this:
function my_enqueue($hook) {
if( 'settings_page_adminimize/adminimize' == $hook )
wp_enqueue_script( 'my_custom_script', CHILDURI . '/js/mod-adminimize.js', array( 'jquery' ) );
add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'my_enqueue' );
With the above tweaks to css selectors, the js could be condensed to about half a dozen lines.
I would love to see something like this implemented in a future release of Adminimize.
Hope this helps (:
