"I think it's cool, you do what you do And don't try to save me!" This isn't my most impressive video or anything but it was a lot of fun to make. I've wanted to vid this song for forever but had never settled on a character that it fit but hadn't been done well for before. I also have been in a Smallville mood lately and found myself dying to make a Lana character video because I'd never made one before. I had a lot of fun making this. I used people's actual worst nightmares including Lana ...

(Video rescatado del desaparecido Chockys) Nació el 29 de Julio de 1982. Apareció fugazmente en muchas series y películas hasta que, en 2001 llegó a un mundo donde ya todo estaba conocido y definido y ella entró como un huracán para dar un soplo de aire fresco. Se ha ganado el corazón de millones de fans en todo el mundo, y su personaje tiene tanta (o más) fama que Lana Lang, la verdadera protagonista. Hablamos de "Smallville". Hablamos de Cloe Sullivan: hablamos de Allison Mack. Con cariño para ella le dedico este video. (Video rescued from the missing user Chockys) She was born in July 29, 1982. She appeared briefly in much TV series and movies until that in 2001 she arrived to a world where it was known and defined and she entered like a hurricane to give a breath of fresh air. She won the heart of a million fans by all world, and her character has the same fame (or more) than Lana Lang, the true main character. We're talking about "Smallville". We're talking about Chloe Sullivan: we're talking about Allison Mack. With love I dedicate this video for her.

Val & i have been friends 4 16 years. I have known her since I was 4 years old. We were in Girl Scouts 2gether. I know everybody that was friends with Val or knew her will miss her. Now no matter what happened between us or how we parted ways from one another I still cared 4 her. I know there still is a tiny place in my heart that she has touched but now all that knew her all we have left of her are our memories and pictures to remind us of the good, bad, or even sad times. This song is called "Calling All Angels" by Jane Siberry & K.d. Lang. I think it is appropriate to Val. & The last song in the last minute is called "Hush, Hush, Hush" by Paula Cole. I believe she is an Angel now watching over each and every one of us who has ever been in her life and may she rest in peace.

Students at Elkins Middle School pushed up their sleeves, pulled out their research skills, and put together their presentations for the social studies fair, held Wednesday evening at the school. Thirty-one projects were entered for judging.
Sixth-grade student Liam Gongola explained his entry title, "How about a cup of coffee."
"It was interesting to find out the health benefits of drinking coffee and how it affects our health," Gongola said. "I also learned about how coffee was discovered and more about the coffee industry."

Elkins Middle School students present their social studies projects for judging Wednesday evening at the school cafeteria. Sixth-grader Shaylen Chenoweth, above, chose the changing role of veterinarians as her topic because she loves animals and hopes to be a veterinarian.
Gongola said a goat herder long ago watched his animals eating the coffee berries, and observed how the goats would become jumpy from the caffeine.
"The herder gave the beans to the local priest and he boiled them, thus making coffee," Gongola said.
Alyssa Thompson, an eighth-grade student, described her project on "Pennsylvania Dutch: Amish Life."
"We went to Amish country and I found it interesting that they live so differently than we do," Thompson said. "It was fun and I learned more about the Amish."
Rich Carr, principal of Elkins Middle School, said the social studies fair is a great opportunity for students to display their knowledge.
"Students also have the opportunity to showcase their work ethic in developing many interesting presentations about a wide variety of topics," Carr said. "This event provides them the opportunity to receive recognition for their hard work and their educational process. Parents get to see what our kids are doing. These projects bring the students, teachers and parents together. I am proud of everyone who participated."
Jacob Earle, an eighth-grade student, completed his project on "Effects of the Arab Spring."
"I chose this subject because in Mrs. Davis' seventh-grade, we learned about the Middle East," Earle said. "The subject intrigued me and I started doing research and learned about the Arab Spring, which really began Dec. 18, 2010. College students in these countries are unhappy with their government. They do not have the right to vote and they are trying to get their voices heard."
Shaylen Chenoweth completed her project about her favorite subject: animals.
"I have loved animals as long as I can remember," Chenoweth said. "I chose to research and report on the changing role of veterinarians."
Chenoweth said she hopes to be a veterinarian when she grows up, and enjoyed learning about the changes and the history of veterinarians.
"It was a fun project," she said. "The hardest part was coordinating my schedule with Dr. Lammie to complete an interview."
Eighth grade social studies instructor Rose Blake said participation in the Elkins Middle School Social Studies Fair is voluntary.
"We are excited to have 31 projects in the fair," Blake said. "I love to see the different ideas the students come up with and how they bring their ideas to life. The organizational and research skills utilized by these students will help them with their junior papers and senior projects in high school, presentations in high school and college and on thesis papers in college."
First place winners in each category will advance to the county level. The county social studies fair is slated for Feb. 12 at the Beverly Fire Hall.

With the summer boating season kicking into high gear with the Fourth of July weekend, Berkeley County Rescue Squad Chief Bill Salisbury is stressing the importance of boater safety and awareness when taking to the water.
Its important for people to understand now that summers here, there will be a lot of boating traffic out there, he said. Its important for boaters to be aware and follow safety guidelines.
Salisbury said a few moments in the marina could help avoid disaster on the water.
Please file a float plan, he said. Let people know where youre going and how long you plan to be gone.
Check the weather. Out there on the lake bad weather can whip up pretty fast.
Salisbury cited a recent rescue of three boaters whose craft had been hit by waves and took on water. He said their rapid emergency 911 call and keeping cell phones and life jackets in use during the ordeal helped avoid a possible tragedy.
Its important to be aware of changing conidtions on the lake, he said.
Salisbury mentioned the June 1 rescue call where three young people spent more than eight hours in the water after their boat sank.
Had they filed a float plan we could have located them much sooner, Salisbury said. The parents were convinced their kids were on the river and not on Lake Moultrie. A lot of time was wasted because Rescue Squad workers didnt know where to look.
Salisbury cited a similar incident involving three young people and a jet ski.
We received a call that there were three young people in their early twenties out on a jet ski and it was taking on water and sinking, he said, But because they had their life jackets and cell phone, they were able to stay afloat and call 911.
After the boaters were rescued they were asked if any family members would have noticed their absence otherwise.
They replied that their parents didnt even know they were taking the jet ski out on the lake and that could have been a disaster, Salisbury said. Fortunately, Berkeley County Rescue Squad and the Lake Moultrie Fire Department were able to locate them and bring them back to safety.
While Lake Moultrie is a relatively shallow lake, it averages depths of more than 30 feet, with a deepest point of 74 feet at the powerhouse.
In the event of severe weather, waves on the lake can grow larger than eight feet.
Salisbury advised boaters to always wear life jackets and be mindful of rapidly changing weather conditions.
Watch the weather and if bad weather flares up, dont try to go back to your landing where you put in, he said. Find the nearest landing, the nearest piece of dry land, and go there. Wait for the storm to pass then try to return to your vehicle.
The unique feature about this lake with it being so shallow, when the lake was formed they came in and cut the trees in half. There are stumps all over that lake and some lie just beneath the surface. You have to be careful where you take your boat.
Formed in 1966, the Berkeley County Rescue Squad is a 30-member all volunteer organization that answers on average of two rescue calls per week.

While the accuracy of its most ambitious
simulations is still is a work in progress, Stanford University's Folding@home
has been a visionary project in showcasing the merits of distributed,
volunteer-based supercomputing.
I. LHC Powers up With New Volunteer Computing
CERN (Conseil
Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire --
European Council for Nuclear Research) is teaming up with United Nations
Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR), and the University of Geneva to create
an organization dubbed "Citizen Cyberscience
Centre", which looks to test and deploy similar projects.
The Citizen Cyberscience Centre just yesterday released [press
release] its second generation LHC@home software, whose ambitious goal is to
assist scientists with locating the legendary Higgs boson and other exotic
The client is available to download here.
Its concept is that while scientists have advanced
physics theory that tells them how they expect systems to behave, they can't
actually give a prediction of how a particular system will behave until they
put that theory into a system. With LHC@home, members of the public can
install a client on their computers, which will apply their spare computing
power towards simulating high-energy collisions between protons. The
results will then be compared with experimental data from real-world LHC runs
to narrow the search for items of interest.
The LHC stands for "Large Hadron
Collider". The massive 17 mile (27 km) underground track on the
Swiss-French border is the world's most powerful particle accelerator.
The LHC has been conducting
full experimental runs during warm months since March 30, 2010, after two years
of initial
technical difficulties.
Professor Dave Britton of the University of Glasgow, a researcher who previously
worked on the CMS LHC sensor, and currently works on the ATLAS sensor project, is a developer of cloud-based particle physics computing schemes. While not directly affiliated with the LHC@home code, he voiced enthusiasm on the effort, which is similar to his own GridPP (www.gridpp.ac.uk) distributed particle physics effort.
He remarks, "Scientists like me are trying to
answer fundamental questions about the structure and origin of the Universe.
Through the Citizen Cyberscience Centre and its volunteers around the world,
the Grid computing tools and techniques that I use everyday are available to
scientists in developing countries, giving them access to the latest computing
technology and the ability to solve the problems that they are facing, such as
providing clean water. Whether you're interested in finding the Higgs boson,
playing a part in humanitarian aid or advancing knowledge in developing
countries, this is a great project to get involved with."
II. LHC@home Can Also be Used to Protect
Forests -- and Lives
The new project will also be applied to processing
satellite data from governments and private entities to protect the environment
and human lives. These applications will also draw computing resources
from the LHC@home 2.0 client.
One plan involves tracking of natural disasters
such as floods, tsunamis, and earthquakes. Such a project could help aid
workers locate injured people, saving lives. It could also help people
avoid imminent natural disasters.
Another potential humanitarian application is to
use the data processing capabilities to locate clean drinking water. Many
regions of the world still
lack reliable sources of safe-to-drink water.
Additionally, the processing power can be used to
track deforestation. This will allow international governments and
environmental action organizations to assess the extent of environmental damage
and loss of biodiversity. This will allow them to better formulate plans
of action to preserve our planet's natural treasures.
Describes Francesco Pisano, Manager of
UNOSAT, "From a development and humanitarian perspective, the potential of
citizen-powered research is enormous. Participating in the Citizen Cyberscience
Centre enables us to get new insights into the cutting edge of crowdsourcing
technologies. There is no doubt that volunteers are playing an increasingly
central role in dealing with crisis response, thanks to the Internet."
III. Project is True Team Effort
While it may sound like the public is doing all
the work on these projects, they also require a great deal of effort from CERN
and its partners. Not only do they have to develop all the software, but
they also have to process the data down to a form that's digestible by the
"volunteer cloud".
To that end the UK's Science & Technology
Facilities Council is providing one of the world's top ten Tier 1 data centers
to serving up information to LHC@home 2.0 clients.
The reward, though, of the marriage of academia,
government institutions, and the public is in producing a distributed
supercomputer that far exceeds the capacity of even today's most
powerful stand-alone installations.
quote: If you ever want the Human species to get off this planet and out to the stars, we need to understand how things work on both scales. This understanding could lead to us figuring more important things out like in my opinion, the most important question we can answer at this time: "What is nothing?"
quote: - Nothing and everything are one in the same. To emphasize that, consider that ZERO is the only relevant number on an infinite number line - because no matter how far you go in either direction on said number line, you will always be at zero.
quote: Really, that's what you believe? I thank you sir for answering the question that we all need to know. Apparently you know it all so there is no point in talking to a brick wall of infinite yet finite mortar. Your glue is superior and our bricks are insignificant cogs to your supreme reality that is our nothing. I bow to you.
quote: Not really.
quote: How can you humanly say you know the answer to everything when you can't even explain nothing? None of us can. Thus, science exists to serve us for the near infinite future in our limited third plus one dimension.
quote: What I find amusing is you call string theory idiotic yet some of the brightest minds in the world grapple with it every day. Do you honestly believe in only what you can "see and touch?"
quote: Wait, per your schema seeing and touching are purely subjective dependent on your current scale and frame of reference. Hmm... a typing paradox you are. I suppose through causality I could argue that since you believe that time, matter, space and energy do not exist then I could argue you do not exist, ergo I am bathing in complete lunacy talking to myself. I must now resign to my own, private insanity.
quote: For someone trying to participate in a discussion of science, you throw the word "believe" around a lot. I'm waiting for you to start your fire and brimstone speech, followed by a method of salvation that involves paying you a tithe.
quote: I throw around believe because you make some statements with strong conviction as if you know factually and authoritatively that these are the answers (which go contrary to many other _real_ scientists in some cases). I'm not the one making "religious" statements here--it is you.
quote: You say you know these answers as factual, yet nobody else in the scientific community will say so?That is a belief, ergo you believe in these things. Science is based on verification of extraordinary statements with extraordinary evidence. You make strong statements yet there is yet to be strong evidence to back it up.
quote: I see conceptually what you are getting at--i.e. the Universe is only our perceptual creation yet in reality it is essentially only a bunch of atoms strewn together in a cloud that more empty than it is solid. Our brains, eyes and senses allow us to make it into something quantifiable that, without us, would simply be entropy at work.
quote: The reality is (or "our" reality as you like to call it) there are universal constants that govern our universe as we call it and these help set the laws of physics which we strive to understand and figure out--aka CERN, which will give us the information we need to manipulate our reality to our advantage in the future.
quote: These scientists try and quantify your "beliefs" and either disprove or lend credence to them. You should be thankful we have them.
quote: I'm not sure why you bother though, as you don't even exist. I'm just banging my head against a wall here--well, something that I call a wall. It probably doesn't even exist. Actually, in reality, it is just a bunch of particles with fields that do not permit my particles to pass through them. Maybe if I bang it hard enough I'll merge with the wall. If I merge, I'll become one with the soup. Then I will be the soup. If I am the soup I can become all consuming. If I am that, then I will be all knowing and then I will be your reality that is not.
quote: Yes, I should keep trying, though I know not why I would want to inherit it. It seems dark, it seems cold, it seems so... so... *echoes fill the void*
quote: Actually there are no atoms - that was just a thought exercise to help you visualize the fact that existence is mere perception.
quote: If you're thinking to yourself "absurd", then consider what they've already observed within quantum physics
quote: existence itself is manufactured by our perception so existence doesn't really exist.
quote: It's not "how I know" it is "how can everyone see these answers being displayed so plainly to them and NOT know"?
quote: I do know what I stated to be factually true. Authority is irrelevant because a fact is a fact whether you like it or not.
quote: I think the best example you gave to explain your argument is the video game but you have to see that it also creates a paradox. Anything perceived by the character would have to be created within the programming of the video game. If that is true then all perceptions are false. And if all perceptions are false, they cannot be used to validate any argument of what is real or not. ie. There would be no way for the character to use perceptions within the game to validate that they are in a game.
quote: String theory is idiotic and ridiculous...the fact that it gets serious consideration is even more troubling...I mean it was practically created backwards - where they defined the "ideal" solution and then made up a bunch of math that would lead to their solution.
quote: Actually there are no atoms - that was just a thought exercise to help you visualize the fact that existence is mere perception. There are no particles or anything if we're talking about the "universal truth", but from our perspective these things seem to exist. Entropy does not exist because there is neither order nor chaos in a void. All that "exists" (and I do not like using that word to describe this) is a singular, eternal moment where nothing and everything happens.
quote: Which, like the string theorists, we have no proof for nor any way to ever prove this true (as of now we can't ever hope to observe a string due to how small they are and how large photons are--though I have ideas as to how to get around that). If we are trapped in a singular, eternal moment where nothing and everything happens, then it is both immeasurable and instantaneous. It is eternal in our eyes as the flow of events happen so quickly that our "brains" are dialed up to process so rapidly that the events seem to take "time" but our perceived time is a microcosm of the moment.
quote: What is here this second, everything that is here as you insinuate, will be gone the next second and we will be left with nothing or everything--or maybe our universe will change state completely, say from a binary 0 to a binary 1.
quote: Or perhaps it will meet an untimely demise as it comes crashing into another dimensional barrier (a dimension to us, mind you) and drench the outer walls with this splattered concoction.
quote: All in all though, if we are in a fleeting void, then what exactly is the point at trying to solve "worldly" problems such as poverty, starvation, famine, death, war, or even seeking a cure to aging. If as you say we will never be able to leave our sandbox, then what is the point to existing at all, period. We've answered "how" here, but there is no point in answering "why."
quote: Thus, you've created the perfect paradox. A paradox that suggests that chaos is ultimately the supreme solution to our universal quandry as any attempt at maintaining order will ultimately be met with complete oblivion. There is no point in existing at all. So why care then? Why not do what we each individually desire with such an outlook?

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
July 17, 2012
The safety of everyone on the Saint Vincent College campus is always on the mind of Steve Brown, director of public safety, especially during the Steelers summer training camp because of the presence of players, coaches, news media, and thousands of fans every day. "The Steelers' permanent and temporary staff manage the day-to-day procedures that direct visitors to the proper parking area," noted Mr. Brown. "But the Saint Vincent public safety staff is always ready to assist when unexpected questions or emergencies arise." As in the past, there will be no charge for admission to the Saint Vincent campus and no charge for parking. Surprisingly, worry about severe weather is one of the biggest challenges. "Thunderstorms can roll into this area very quickly and we are always watching weather reports so we will know immediately when a warning or watch is issued by the National Weather Service. When visitors are notified, it is important that they immediately seek shelter or return to their vehicles, especially if there is potential for lightning strikes." Saint Vincent College's location is an asset when temporary parking is needed for up to 5,000 vehicles. "The fields surrounding campus provide a convenient parking area for two to three thousand cars," Mr. Brown noted, "so when weekend crowds can be up to 10,000 persons, there is sufficient parking available. We never turn anyone away." Mr. Brown reminded first-time visitors that they are welcome to bring folding chairs and picnic baskets with them but that dogs and other pets, barbeque grills and alcohol are not permitted anywhere on campus. The Public Safety Office also responds to medical incidents and other emergencies. "Sprained ankles, bloody noses and fainting do occur and every effort is made to contact the appropriate emergency responder to provide treatment or transport," Mr. Brown concluded.
