St. Francis University student Nicole Brownyard can still picture the smile on 7-year-old Henry's face, a child she met while on spring break in the Dominican Republic.
Born with a degenerative disease that affected his bone marrow, Henry was unable to perform even simple tasks such as putting on his own socks.
But with help from Brownyard and other physical therapy students, Henry was able to use a special shoe horn and other tools to not only put on his own socks, but also his own shoes - for the first time.

Tom Johnson, a senior
science major from?St. Francis, wraps the hands of a woman in the Dominican Republic
earlier this month. He saw her in an emergency clinic because she fell on her hands.
"He was so happy," Brownyard said of Henry. "His mom was brought to tears."
Brownyard was one of the 62 students and staff from St. Francis participating in the Hugs United service group trip over spring break, providing medical and rehabilitation assistance in the Dominican Republi.
A second-year graduate student studying physical therapy, Brownyard said the trip to provide medical and rehabilitation assistance in the Dominican Republic was a rewarding experience.
"Going on this trip, to me, was being able to give these people so much," Brownyard said. "We learned so much from them."
Students stayed at an orphanage overnight and worked in various medical clinics during the day, Brownyard said.
Students worked closely with St. Francis professors involved on the trip and staff from the Dominican clinics, said Tom Johnson, a 21-year-old senior studying to be a physician assistant.
Over the course of the week, students met with 1,176 patients ranging in age from infants to seniors, including the 700 students at the orphanage, Johnson said.
The trip was Johnson's second visit to the Dominican Republic over spring break. The students were welcomed and thanked for their work, he said.
"It was an interesting experience," Johnson said. "They have a lot less than us, but they have their family, and their faith is very important to them. It's empowering."
Hillarie Brace also participated on the trip for the second consecutive year. Students had the chance to work with some of the same physical therapists as last year's mission and saw the impact of their work firsthand, she said.
"It's just a week of our lives, but it's something that impacts these people - people remember you," Brace said.
Despite having translators present, the language barrier presented some challenges. But as a physical therapy student, Brace said she was able to gesture and point to solve patients' problems.
Students used their medical knowledge to help educate the staff at the various clinics, Brace said.
In one instance, therapists were using heat in an attempt to decrease swelling for a patient who recently received a knee transplant.
The team advised the therapists to use cold therapy instead, Brace said.
Everyone from the patients to their families were happy to see the students, Brownyard said.
All three students said they plan to visit the Dominican Republic again - either as students or as medical professionals after graduation.
Trying to explain what the trip meant to students and those they helped is nearly impossible, Brace said.
"You are making an impact, but you get so much more back," Brace said. "You think you're giving something up, but you're really getting so much more out of that week than any 'fun' trip can ever give you."

Nasi Goreng and Sambal Goreng Telur
I love all of the Oriental cuisines. And dishes that blend heat, sourness and sweetness seamlessly are impossible to resist! Here are recipes for two of my favorite quick-fix dishes. In this version, I have toned down the heat of red chilies and sambal for Little M. Both dishes were delicious by themselves and make a wonderful combi together.
The first recipe is for plain nasi goreng, which is sans any protein or veggies and is adapted from here.
3 red chilies
3 cloves garlic
1 small onion
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp kecap manis/sweet soy sauce (I substituted with a mixture of organic molasses and soy sauce, following a tip from here)
1/2 tsp palm sugar
2 tbsp oil
3 cups cooked rice
Pound red chilies, garlic and onion into a coarse paste. Heat oil in a pan. Fry the ground paste. Add the cooked rice. Stir in the two soy sauces, sugar. There was enough sodium between the two soy sauces that I did not need to add any more salt to the rice.
Pretty simple, right? Works great with leftover rice.
Sambal Goreng Telur or Egg Sambal is adapted from here.
2 eggs, hard boiled
1 medium onion, sliced
1 medium tomato, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 tsp each roasted cumin powder
1/2 tsp roasted coriander powder
1 tsp sambal ulek (store bought)
1/2 tsp palm sugar
1/5 tsp tamarind paste
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 tbsp oil
salt to taste
Heat oil. Fry garlic and onion for 2 minutes. Add chopped tomato, salt and fry until soft. Add the powders, sambal paste, tamarind paste, palm sugar and saute for a few mintes. Stir in coconut milk and bring to a boil. Halve the boiled eggs. Pour some sauce on top and serve. Some recipes I looked at involved frying the boiled egg in a little oil but I skipped that.
And as usual, I could not resist clicking some pictures next to a sun streaming window, to get some nice play of light and shadow. So, here's another look at the egg sambal.

The plate of food looks extremely inviting Vani. My grandma lived in Malaysia for a few years and mentions Nasi Goreng in almost all of her conversations related to that place. I bought a store bought paste of the same name the moment I saw it at the store & called her to let her know :))

That's the good news for Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams, who is taking driving lessons in the U.K. in hopes of receiving her license.
The British teenager, who plays Arya on the HBO fantasy series, posted a photo on her WhoSay account of her RED Driving School vehicle.
While there was no sign of her TV traveling companion, Sandor "The Hound" Clegane, she was upbeat as she attempts to get road-ready.
"Theory test booked. Slowly but surely making progress. Thanks red driving school," the 17-year-old wrote on Tuesday.
Hopefully her roads will be far less dangerous than those she travels on the show, where her young character has seen tough times and has been orphaned. "Thought I would be awful at driving, turns out I had a really successful day and can't wait for more," Williams Tweeted earlier this month.
Her driving school Tweeted back its enthusiasm at her efforts. "It's great you enjoyed yourself. We hear you're a natural!"

A message from the President
The Community College of Rhode Island's strategic plan has been updated through 2016 after a two-year process in which a committee composed of faculty, staff, union leadership, administrators and Office of Higher Education staff looked at data, institutional trends and national trends and reviewed the 2009-2012 plan to determine what remained to be accomplished and what new issues had arisen since the plan was written in 2008. NEASC self-study projections also were folded into the discussions.
The resulting document includes seven main goals in the areas of economic demand, student success, innovation, effectiveness, affordability, leadership and community. Among other things, this document will guide the college's efforts to:
- Increase completion, graduation, retention and persistence rates.
- respond nimbly to political, economic and demographic shifts.
- identify and incorporate best practices.
- support current and future college leaders through ongoing professional development.
Through this plan, CCRI will continue to define what it means to be excellent and pursue this goal as a unified college community.

The Luckiest Guy on The Price Is Right
|Email Print
After writing about the guy who lost $600,000 on Deal or No Deal and then the woman scammed out of $400,000 by the Nigerian demi-god of confidence men, I thought it was only fair to tell a happier tale. This one is of a 19 year old named Taylor who has the day of his life with Drew Carey and The Price Is Right.
If that stroke of luck isn't good enough, read this story about Michael Paul Larson learning the patterns of the board in Press Your Luck, an 80s game show, and walking out with a bunch of cash and prizes. First, the story is absolutely true. Next, read the amazing story about how he won $110,237 in cash and prizes back in June 1984 (that's $229,782.08 in today's dollars and back in an era where the prizes were much much smaller).
See? It's not all bad news and schadenfreude here. 🙂{ 6 comments, please add your thoughts now! }

By ALISON LAX
For my senior project, which every student must complete before they graduate at St. John Neumann, I wanted to do something unique that incorporated my passion - theatre. That is why I decided to direct the short play, "Zombie Wedding," a work by Jeffrey Lovett.
Article Photos
St. John Neumann Regional Academy junior Nick Fischer, left, and freshman Raena Matz rehearse for "Zombie Wedding."
In this comedy's somewhat distorted reality, Ashley, a sunny young woman, has met the love of her life, and is ecstatic over the fact that they are getting married in less than three days.
Her friends and family, however, are less than thrilled about the short time frame and the fact that they have never even met the man before.
However, nothing compares to their shock and horror that Ashley's fiance, Bruce, has a few surprises of his own; the biggest being that he is a zombie!
Hilarious mayhem ensues as Ashley's loved ones desperately try to prevent her marriage to someone who would surely kill for her.
When I found this play online, I instantly was hooked. In the summer, I met with my principal, Mrs. Denise Tobin, and told her about my idea to put on the production at St. John Neumann. She loved it, and together we worked out the preparatory details (budget, rehearsal schedule, etc.).
Once school started and auditions were complete, official rehearsals began (and are still occurring with the help of Mr. Kyle Murphy, my drama teacher, and SJNRA sophomore Josette Deck, my stage manager).
As anyone could guess, directing a cast of your friends can be tough. But the upside is that they have a warm chemistry that cannot be taught. I know that they have the talent and ability to make this production the best that it can be.
Theatre has been a major part of my life since I was in elementary school, when I first began to see and participate in numerous shows at the Community Theatre League in Williamsport.
I love the thrill of a performance and truly becoming someone you normally are not; forgetting your own thoughts and problems while trying someone else's on.
"Zombie Wedding" will be the second play I have directed, as I also directed "A Thousand Cranes" at CTL earlier this year.
I plan to continue acting and-or directing as a career, because whether it's happy, funny, sad or serious, every show is a story that has the capability to make someone's life a little bit better, and it needs to be heard.
"Zombie Wedding" will be performed for the public at 7 p.m. Nov. 22 and 23 in the St. John Neumann High School gymnasium.
Tickets will be available at the door. All proceeds will be given to a charity.

HOLLIDAYSBURG - The potential sale of Valley View Home could begin moving forward next week, after Friday's deadline passes for responses from interested bidders.
Commissioners expect to receive information next week from Marcus & Millichap, the Chicago firm hired to market the county's nursing home, Commissioners Chairman Terry Tomassetti said Tuesday.
In the past month, he said 14 tours of the home were scheduled.
The deadline for submitting responses to the firm's Chicago office is 5 p.m. Friday, Central Standard Time, and those responses usually arrive at the last minute, Marcus & Millichap senior associate Joshua Jandris said Tuesday.
Once the deadline passes, the firm will compile information about the submissions and identify the strongest offers. On the recommendation of Marcus & Millichap, commissioners set a minimum bid of $11.25 million and included a negotiating process so bidders can increase their initial offers.
"We have set up a process that should allow for maximum bidding," Tomassetti said Tuesday.
That process, as described in the request for proposals (RFP), should also provide commissioners with information about the bidders and their background in operating nursing home facilities.
"We may go visit their facilities, too," Tomassetti said.
In late December, commissioners voted to have Marcus & Millichap begin distributing the RFPs to buy Valley View Home. While Tomassetti and fellow commissioner Diane Meling supported the action as a way to identify potential buyers and what they are willing to pay, Commissioner Ted Beam Jr. said he preferred the county retain the home.
Tomassetti, who favors selling the home, predicts that continued ownership will lead to real estate tax increases to make up for the home's shortfall in support of the county's pension plan.
Meanwhile, the Altoona division of the American Youth Soccer Organization, a longtime user and the developer of the soccer fields on the county-owned ground, is continuing its effort to build public sentiment against selling the grounds with the home.
Through an online petition and during a recent soccer tournament, AYSO has accumulated more than 1,000 signatures, Regional Commissioner Faber Moyer said Tuesday.
After AYSO representatives raised objections to including the soccer grounds in the potential sale, commissioners agreed to put a clause in the RFP, asking potential bidders to continue leasing the ground to AYSO through June 30, 2014.
While that clause is subject to negotiation with a potential buyer, commissioners said Tuesday that they expect all potential buyers to agree substantially with the provisions they established for the request for proposals.
There can be some "minor tweaking," but no significant changes, Tomassetti said.
"There should be several offers that meet 100 percent of what [commissioners] asked for in the RFP," Jandis said.

Return of the Rangers!
March 22, 2013 - Jim Price
If you need a break from March Madness this weekend, or you need cheering up after your bracket got busted, the area live music scene has some relief in store.
One of this weekend's highlights occurs Saturday night at Pellegrine's with the return of Buffalo classic-rocking trio the Ozone Rangers. Long known for their ZZ Top tribute, the current Ozone Rangers lineup of singer/guitarist Bob Muhlbauer, bassist Marty Monti and drummer Brendan Komenda will likely feature a set devoted to the Texas trio, along with at least one set of strongly-performed classic rock favorites. The group may reprise their "Medley in 'E'" – a lengthy uptempo medley that strings together classics all performed or geared into the key of E. Local rockers Left For Dead, featuring former members of Aunt Lisa's Bone, will open the show.
Also happening on stage this weekend, if you want to experience what it's like to sing along with an actual live band, local karaoke-backing group kBand will bring their unique show to the Ramada Cosmopolitan Lounge on Friday night. You get to sing lead vocals, backed by guitarists Bruce Forr and Jason Kaufmann, bassist Brett Fanelli and drummer Tim Wilkins. With their arsenal of more than 1,000 songs to choose from, kBand will play nearly any request, coordinating their performances with a prompter scrolling the lyrics. This can be challenging for the musicians, as they must be ready to stall or shift gears on a dime if a singing hopeful messes up, gets lost or decided to improvise on lyrics, cadence of style of the song. The live karaoke party of kBand can be fun for singing hopefuls and their friends, but also intriguing to music fans interested in seeing how a band can improvise and adjust on the fly.
Ebensburg-based fivesome Juke Left will celebrate the release of their first official recording with a CD-release show this Friday night at Yesterday's Party in Ebensburg. Featuring Jeff Long on guitar and vocals, Luke Caroff on guitar and backing vocals, Brenton Hildebrand on bass, Mason Whinnie on drumsand lead guitarist Cameron Long; Juke Left blends original rock with mostly '90s cover material.
Support live music this weekend! And if you plan to celebrate heavily while doing so, please designate a driver or call a cab!

Priorities: Environmental law must consider effect on humans
March 29, 2013
The primary reason most people worry about the environment is because they understand it has an effect on human beings....
The Rev has it right. This is an attempt to pollute the ecological/environmental aspects of the problem with economic considerations before the environmental report is even submitted.

Starting your child off with good dental care can help protect their teeth for decades to come. A baby's 20 primary teeth are already present in the jaws at birth. Those baby teeth that begin coming through the gums around 6 months help set the stage for future smiles by keeping space in the jaw for adult teeth.

My cherry shrimp packages contain 20 shrimp, plus a couple extras in case of DOAs. The cost is $20 including Priority shipping in an insulated box; I can get a quote on Express if you'd like. I also require the inclusion of heat packs at this time of year; the cost for a 72-hour heat pack is $3. A tracking number is complimentary. The shrimp are shipped in a breather bag (which means that your shrimp will never run out of oxygen) with a small plant to hold onto during shipping.
I will guarantee live arrival if I shipped Express, the package arrived on time, and you opened it promptly. I cannot always replace packages (this depends on how many shrimp I have left), but I can always refund.
I can also include FREE frogbit, and I can price a few plants for you if you are interested in buying those as well.
I have only one package available right now! Get it while you can!

ATHENS, Ga. — Linebackers coach Kirk Botkin and defensive line coach Deke Adams showed some fight Saturday as South Carolina was trying to stop Georgia from looking like Oregon.
That part of the Gamecocks' brain trust fought with each other on the sideline.
"At least they care," head coach Steve Spurrier said when informed of the scrap after the Gamecocks' 41-30 loss at Sanford Stadium.
Botkin and Adams had to be separated by defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward and free safety Brison Williams.
"Heat of the moment," Ward said. "They're good."
There weren't many good moments for the South Carolina defense. No. 11 Georgia is talented, and its offense played well enough to win last week in a 38-35 loss at Clemson.
But the No. 6 team in the country shouldn't be giving up a balanced onslaught of 536 yards (309 passing for Aaron Murray, 227 rushing).
The loss between the hedges puts South Carolina between a rock and a hard place in the SEC East standings.
"Over-rated!" Georgia fans shouted late in the game.
This isn't the 2012 Gamecock defense that allowed an average of 315.5 yards per game. Quarterback Connor Shaw, running back Mike Davis and a gritty offensive line deserved better support for nearly keeping up with the Bulldogs.
Changes coming
"I look out there and I see all those either redshirt freshmen or second-year guys and I'm starting to wonder if we were expecting a little bit much out of all those guys," Spurrier said.
Expect personnel and scheme adjustments before next week's home game against Vanderbilt.
"We're going to change our defense," the Head Ball Coach said. "We're not going to stand there like we did today. I'll give Coach Ward some suggestions."
One of Spurrier's first suggestions: Somebody make a play, the way hard-hitting safety D.J. Swearinger so often did before moving on to the NFL's Houston Texans.
"I think we have good football players," Ward said. "I'm not going to put this loss on youth or any particular player. This is all of us on defense."
If Jadeveon Clowney can't do it all, you'd think the other guys could do more. He finished with one sack, two tackles for lost yardage and three total tackles. Not bad, considering Georgia tried hard to avoid the junior defensive end.
Clowney's exit
"At any point in time, any one of us can make a big play," Georgia wide receiver Justin Scott-Wesley said. "I really think that it helps keep the defense off balance."
Comforting thought: Georgia is the best offense South Carolina will see, at least until the Nov. 30 home game against Clemson. That South Carolina apparently has an SEC schedule advantage over Georgia this year has been thoroughly documented (SEC West foes Arkansas and Mississippi State for the Gamecocks, LSU and Auburn for Georgia).
Uncomfortably, there is no room for error, plenty of room for improvement.
"They just pounded us up front," Clowney said. "No excuses. …We came into the game saying we had to stop the run and we didn't do that."
Give the guy credit for playing hard and hurt. Clowney in the second half was hobbled by a sore ankle. But he was the least classy Gamecock after the game, the only South Carolina player to run off the field well ahead of teammates busy congratulating the Bulldogs.
Just another heat of the moment mistake on a long, hot day in Athens.

Talk about smooth sailing.
Just two weeks after her split from George Clooney was made public, Elisabetta Canalis seemed to be enjoying the high seas – not stuck in troubled water.
With former flame Angelo Vita by her side, the Italian TV host, 32, was spotted partying on a yacht last week off of Italy's Amalfi Coast, near Naples and the Isle of Capri.
Sporting a white bikini, Canalis showed off her tanned (and toned) bod with her equally beach-ready shipmate. The two were all smiles as they sat chatting on the edge of the boat, and at one point, Vita had his arms on her waist.
Vita, 30, and Canalis were an item in 2007. Clooney and Canalis dated for nearly two years after making their romance official in September 2009.

In the development of free software, should we allow ourselves to emulate proprietary software or should we strive to be better and unique? Is it bad that a lot of our software does emulate pre-existing proprietary software? Do we look like we are uncreative? Does it matter? Or is a good thing to emulate proprietary software so that there are free software alternatives and so that people have a choice? How do you feel about this issue? To emulate or not to emulate... that is the question.
Emulating proprietary software - should we do it?
Case by case
On the one hand, emulating the creations of the proprietary world puts you in a constant position of "chasing taillights", so it's not a good general strategy.
On the other hand, there are some cases where a particular application is so widely appreciated that it is worth it to accomodate the market.
Of course, the prescriptive ("should") approach to this topic suggests a misapprehension of how free software generally gets created. By and large, software gets written because someone with the will to have it and the ability to create it decides to do so. We should never stand in the way of that.
So if we are questioning whether "we" should emulate proprietary software, we probably should examine who the "we" is, first. If 'we' is a group of people with a strategic need for a piece of software that can only be found in a proprietary form, then the answer's probably "yes 'we' should". Hence the FSF's list of critical software to write.
Of course, the primary desires should be to:
- Fill application niches that are wanted, but unfilled, and
- Support file formats and interchange standards that are already in use
which doesn't necessarily mean copying an application exactly. In fact, you can often do a better job by starting from scratch, and considering the needs of the user -- proprietary designs don't always do a good job of that.
So, in the end, proprietary apps should probably just be a part of a balanced, low-budget marketing assessment of what the users in your community need.
It also has to be appreciated that the core market for free software is not the same as the one for proprietary software. There are likely to be some different needs, and filling those needs is a good way to differentiate the free software offering (to use proprietary marketing terminology, of course). For example, free software users are much more likely to be concerned about producing works in open formats themselves, and to accomodating collaborative activities.
That's why when I wrote about free software CAD needs, I emphasized the need for a collaborative CAD system which could allow people to work over the internet on engineering projects. A simple copy of AutoCAD wouldn't provide that.
i second this - case by case
IMO, FOSS programmers at big projects (not the fringe ones at sf.net for example), have better GUI ideas and better Usability sense than the dominant proprietary programmers or their products.
It is inherent in the FOSS coder's thinking style: My product will be new and different. That leads us to the bigger well-known problem of "too much choice" in the FOSS world.
Nowadays, most M$ products are roughly copies of FOSS or free(Java, VJ++/C#) ideas or layouts(Vista).
However, we dont go filing patents and they do. We have no $$$$$$$'s and they do. So, for example, they sent XPde a legal notice which shut the project officially.
FOSS realizes that the layman alays wants *complete* UI compatibility. And The developer ecosystem wants maximum API-compatibility. So, what do you do to make your cool new FOSS program acceptable to the layman?
Firefox is a tremendous example of how things went right - yet it's market share is just 10% as of today, May 2007.
The layman also accepts, without a single protest, anything that the "latest version of XYZ" if it is supported by enough ads and hype. In his brain, the hype simply kills the fact that he is actually working at learning a new interface.
By contrast, look at how FOSS programs are introduced to the new user:
Timn00b: Hi all, i wanna know a cool foss app for zipping multiple files maybe using a dos prompt
JimHacker: http://www.7-zip.org
JimHacker: it also has a better compression ratio format called 7z. Check it out
See the difference?
It does not come and hit him the face ten times a day. It is not the thing that will deliver him from his file compresion woes.
And where is the all-important point that says that 7-zip does not show a (moving) "OK/I Accept" button and a guilt-count (no. of archives opened so far) nag screen like Winzip does.
It's acutally a huge nuisance removed, but it is not even marketed at the minimum information level.
That's why and that's where FOSS adoption fails.
OpenOffice is not so "cool" because it appears slow and the GUI widgets don't have the traditional win32 single-pixel finish at the edges.
Think again on this one. - it's that ONE PIXEL MARGIN that makes a difference - I've heard so many say - "Microsoft products look so cool and sleek". So there you are.
Another problem IMO with FOSS is that things are structured logically, for thinking users, unlike the monopolist/leading programs - those are configured for simple, non-thinking, minimum-use laymen. Structured is for logical minds - clearly not for laymen - they often just need teh one thing to be done - and configuration of the program is mountain-climbing for them. Unlike for FOSS guys who love the act of tweaking the system.
I can't recall where, but a very experienced programmer who has lived for a long time in both worlds, noted at a forum that Windows and Linux are for different people. There should not be competition, but co-existence.
That IMO, is the crux.
The problem start when M$ wants to rob Linux's share. Do we hate Apple so much as we hate M$. Apple is far worse, at least from my distance, at allowing people to do new things with their products. But, they don't forcibly pull users away from other markets. They stay put, every now and then trying for a small increment in the user base - yes, now they're trying to get into people's minds via other means - like music players and stuff - but essentially within limits.
Then, there is the patent and litigation issue for UIs and methods.
So, I personally think FOSS should keep a clean room approach. FOSS and GNU/Linux are never going to dominate. And they should not as well - because if we do that, what different are we from M$?
At the same time, if M$ tries suing and stuff, we should also end up with millions in victorious suits for *their having copied* from FOSS programs. That's a really fair situation. That also means that they have to sit and think new things as well.
I've heard of management practices like making two fully capable teams work on the same product and they compete with each other and the losing team's code is just thrown or shelved. That is a colossal waste of everyone's money. And users bear the cost. Surely, their coders with prestigious academic backgrounds know better than copying.
In such a situation therefore, case-by-case seems to be the best approach.
Look, we've already got the geeks on our side. So, who do we have left to convert? The non-geeks. Would they be more likely to use something that looks like something they are familiar with, or something they aren't? I know my parents would never have used OpenOffice.org if it looked different from Microsoft Office. In fact, they were more impressed than upset that it looked so similar to Microsoft Office.
Alienating people doesn't help bring them to your side. We should try to make free software as comfortable to the end user as possible.
Andrew Min
Look at Firefox. It does the
Look at Firefox. It does the same that it's proprietary competition (display web pages), but better. Trying to replace a proprietary product doesn't mean always being behind them.
Firefox isn't an emulation
Actually, Firefox (along with the entire Mozilla fleet) is a perfect example of filling application niches without emulating the proprietary competition. The only thing that you can say that Firefox has "emulated" about IE is that it focuses exclusively on web browsing, rather than a full suite of internet activities as does the full Mozilla package.
For an emulator, perfection is achieved by looking exactly like the emulated package, not just by accomplishing the same tasks. And that's why an emulator is doomed to always be "chasing taillights" -- you've defined success to be somebody else's work, so unless you are copying them perfectly, you're behind. And the most you can ever achieve on this scale is to be "as good as" the emulated package (and for an actively developed package, you are unlikely even to achieve this level of success).
Firefox, on the other hand, strives to be better than IE in the same application niche, dealing with the same types of data formats, not "the same as" IE. And that's where free software apps need to be setting their sights, IMHO.
To a point
In general, I agree with Terry, above. I'd just add that, when we're beginning to cover a particular need, replicating existing programs, whether proprietary or Free, is a reasonable place to start. But we shouldn't be beholden to the particular design or implementation of the software we're emulating (though we shouldn't throw out good ideas whatever their source).
Our particular advantage is that we can, collectively, write software _faster_ and more effectively than most proprietary vendors (not that we always do); so, while we may spend some time "chasing taillights", we can pull up even with them and begin to innovate ourselves (and we can innovate in the meantime, of course). I think we're beginning to see that happen on a large scale, now, and it's terribly exciting.
All of the above
We should emulate the good and rewrite the bad. We should innovate beyond the proprietary offerings. We certainly shouldn't let all those R&D dollars (which consumers pay for) go to waste. Copy. Stand on the shoulders of giants. Chase tail lights when they are there to chase AND (only) if you don't know what direction to take OR if it is the right direction to go. Then, when they are pulled over for a break, over-take. Or, if they appear to be going in the wrong direction we should go our own way.
2 points: - If proprietary
2 points:
- If proprietary sw is so widespread and popular then emulation should be done to ease ppl who want to make a "switch".
- Instead of letting proprietary sw guide our devp, y not develop something better maybe using a different approach and beat them at their own game by providing better alternatives to *proprietary sw*. for once, they will start emulating us!

MARTINSBURG - The West Virginia Citizens Defense League is considering pursuing a lawsuit in state court that challenges Martinsburg's ordinance prohibiting guns on city property, WVCDL President Keith Morgan said Thursday in a telephone interview.
"And we're looking at timing," he said.
In the meantime, Martinsburg officials are waiting to see what happens, the city's attorney, Floyd "Kin" Sayre, said Thursday in a telephone interview.

Jim Mullins
"If the WVCDL wants to pursue the case, it needs to be filed in circuit court in Berkeley County, and no action has been taken," he said.
Complicating the matter was the sudden and unexpected death Aug. 23 of WVCDL's attorney, James M. "Jim" Mullins Jr.
The founder and past president of WVCDL, Mullins, 30, apparently had a fatal heart attack. He recently had moved from Beckley to Lebanon, Va.
Mullins was born in Grundy, Va., but spent his early youth in Paynesville in McDowell County, West Virginia, according to his obituary.
He got his law degree from West Virginia University College of Law.
Mullins filed in January 2011 a suit in federal court for the Northern District of West Virginia charging Martinsburg's ordinance prohibiting guns from city property as unconstitutional. In the suit, Mullins argued that the city's 2008 ordinance violated both the U.S. and West Virginia constitutions as well as state statutes.
Martinsburg's ordinance bans guns from city offices like city hall and from properties owned by the city, such as the Caperton Train Station and the Market House.
The old B&O Hotel is part of the train station, which has been remodeled as an office building. The building also serves as the station for the MARC commuter train and Amtrak and it is home to the "for the kids, by George" children's museum, which is under construction.
The Market House at the corner of West Burke and North Queen streets houses offices and Habanero Mexican Grill restaurant.
In September 2011, U.S. District Judge John Preston Bailey abstained from hearing the case, ruling that while WVCDL has the right to bring the suit in federal court, the case should first go through the state judicial system.
WVCDL appealed Bailey's decision to the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in November 2011, but the appeals court denied the appeal, sending the case back to West Virginia's courts.
In a related matter, WVCDL had filed similar suits against Charleston, South Charleston and Dunbar in federal court for the Southern District of West Virginia.
On Sept. 27, U.S. District Judge John Copenhaver also sent those cases to state court.

To understand what makes photography distinct, it must be considered in the context of other artistic media. Dr. Leonard Folgarait, Professor of History of Art at Vanderbilt University, will use images from the exhibition to discuss 20th century photography and explore its particular and peculiar power to fascinate us. Dr. Folgarait will also concentrate on the question of how personalities can be captured in flat, black and white images.

Ryan Wirth
The FLC soccer goalie has sent his r�sum� to a sports agent in Switzerland and is hoping to set up a trial to get on the team.
Wirth, a business administration � management major, helped lead the men�s soccer team to the 2011 national championship.
Wirth was born in Switzerland and has dual citizenship, so he hopes it�ll be easier for him to get on a team because he wouldn�t be taking one of the few spots open for foreign players.
If he doesn�t get on a team, Wirth said he will either move to Arizona to try and start a business with a friend or join the Peace Corps.

An unusually prominent characteristic of many good bosses. Other passive agressive individuals may be: serial killers, witches, priests, any religious figures, or parents.
Of all the restaurant managers that ever lived, Vicki was by far the greatest and passive agressive-ist.

Google Releases Map App for iPhone
Nearly three months after the Google Maps mobile app was kicked off the iPhone in favor of Apple Inc. AAPL 0.78 % 's own mapping software, Google Inc. released a downloadable version of the app, spelling relief for many Apple users who had complained about the switch.
Google Maps appeared on Apple's app store late Wednesday, less than four weeks after The Wall Street Journal reported that Google was putting the finishing touches on the app for Apple devices and was preparing to submit it to Apple for approval.
In September, when Apple kicked off the Google Maps app that had been preinstalled on all iPhones and iPads since 2007, its Apple Maps software was met with widespread criticism for inaccuracies, prompting an apology from Apple CEO Tim Cook. Apple has been working feverishly to improve its mapping service as the company spars with Google, whose Android mobile operating system powers smartphones and tablets that compete with the iPhone.

The move to replace Google Maps on Apple devices was initiated years ago by then-Apple CEO Steve Jobs, as the company viewed mapping as key to the future of computing and didn't want to rely on Google, especially as Android devices began to rise in popularity.
Both companies are now battling to win over individual consumers while also convincing mobile-app creators to build location-related apps on top of their mapping software. Google Maps is considered the leading digital-mapping software among individuals, websites and apps.
As expected, the new Google Maps app contains turn-by-turn navigation that would allow people to use it like a GPS device while driving. That feature didn't exist in the preinstalled version of the Google Maps app because of a prior dispute between Google and Apple.
The new app also includes "detailed information for more than 80 million businesses and points of interest," as well as indoor photos of some businesses, Google said in a post on the company's blog late Wednesday.
The new Google Maps app is available for the iPhone and fourth-generation iPod Touch devices that run the 5.1 version of Apple's iOS operating software. Google said the app is available in more than 40 countries and 29 languages, including Spanish, Japanese, French and German.
"People around the world have been asking for Google Maps on iPhone," Google said in its blog post.
A version of Google Maps for the iPad isn't yet available.
Google's new maps app was created by Google programmers, whereas the preinstalled version had been created by Apple with Google's mapping data.
Google could generate more revenue from the new Google Maps because the company will be able to include more ads from local businesses, or tie it to other revenue-generating Google services.
In September, Apple also kicked off a preinstalled version of Google's YouTube video app from its devices, but it also approved a new YouTube app that could be downloaded to Apple devices. Unlike the old YouTube app, the new one contains video advertising, boosting Google's revenue.
The Google web-search engine still remains the default search feature for Apple devices.
