And in this stirring chronicle, Pulitzer Prize- winning journalist Philip Caputo writes about our country's most controversial war -- the Vietnam War -- for young readers.

Included within 10,000 Days of Thunder are personal anecdotes from soldiers and civilians, as well as profiles and accounts of the actions of many historical luminaries, both American and Vietnamese, involved in the Vietnam War, such as Richard M.

Caputo also explores the rise of Communism in Vietnam, the roles that women played on the battlefield, the antiwar movement at home, the participation of Vietnamese villagers in the war, as well as the far-reaching impact of the war's aftermath.

Winners were everywhere around the hall during awards presentations at the Sixth Annual Frank Privitere Memorial International Rabbit Hunting Derby.
Held at the American Legion Post No. 63 in Lackawanna on Jan. 26, that Saturday evening gathering brought together the young and older good folks that populate the hunter ranks of Western New York.
"This is where you get to see the best of hunters and gun owners," Rick Giermata, event coordinator with the New Empire Beagle Club, said that evening.
The team competition presents prizes for the top three single entries by weight.
In planning this derby, Giermata wanted to stage it later into the rabbit season so that snowfall was possible and hunters had established good hunting locations. As hunters have seen during late-January hunts, that Saturday began in blazing sunlight and a warming trend that followed a week-long deep freeze.
Canadian team leader Matt Duhaime, from Thorold, Ont., said of the hunt, "It started slow, but the dogs got the rabbits running hard once it warmed up."
His team's plan was to shoot for winners. "We saw lots of 'short' runs to holes and only took shots at ones that circled," he said of the five big rabbits his team brought in for weighing. In the final standings, the team of Duhaime's relatives Dan and Sam Duhaime, Krista Gaverluk, Matt Christopher and Matthew Seburn took first and second place with 3.7 and 3.5-pound entries.
This team has participated in four of the five previous derbies, taking two second places in earlier contests. Brett Bavisotto, a regular on four previous teams, did not make it for this year's wins. Duhaime and the Duhaime family dedicated their wins to their elder/founder Patrick "DD" Duhaime, 86, who cheers on the team each year. The team also donated its money prizes to the collective youth causes Giermata had established for this year's event.
The third-place team entered a 3.5-pound rabbit and took informal honors for the most bunnies bagged that day. Team leader Tim Harlock along with Tom Owczarczak, Ron Crane, and Mark and Zack Heberlein logged 19 cottontails that day on outings in the Bennington/Darien area.
In all, 14 teams consisting of 31 individual hunters brought home 71 rabbits for stews and other table fare.
Other donations funded uniforms for Lackawanna-based Boy Scout Troop 523. But the biggest win for a youth was Mike Stranz, 12, of Orchard Park. Mike is on track for a full recovery from a form of leukemia diagnosed two years earlier.
Giermata dedicated this year's derby to Stranz; Giermata and Lackawanna Mayor Geoff Szymanski presented young Mike with a plaque as a get-well (and a full recovery) wish. His dad, Paul Stranz, and several officials from his school in Orchard Park were in attendance when Mike received his honors and well-wishes presentations.
After all receipts and costs were totaled, Giermata presented the Stranz family with $3,383 from the derby proceeds. "It's not a ton, but I'm sure it will help give them a break of sorts," Giermata said of the club's donation.
Hunters who could not attend or participate in this derby have another opportunity for competition in the Fourth Annual Rabbit Hunting Derby at Eden-North Collins Gun Club on Feb. 16.
Prizes go to the top three rabbits weighed in by either teams or an individual hunter.
For pre-registration discounts and contest details, check with Sam Mardino at 597-8184.
Reduced hunting pressure has put more cottontail rabbits in the field in recent years. Good rabbit reports come from areas in the Finger Lakes and along the Southern Tier.
Prospects look good for hounds and huntsmen to enjoy some healthy harvests until the Feb. 28 finale for the Southern Zone season.

LOCKPORT - A man serving a state prison sentence for drug possession was arraigned in Niagara County Court Thursday on more felony drug charges stemming from sales that allegedly occurred before the crime for which he is serving time.
Kurtis R. Washington, 21, of Cottage Street, Lockport, pleaded not guilty to three counts each of third-degree sale and possession of a controlled substance.
Assistant District Attorney Peter M. Wydysh said Washington allegedly sold crack cocaine in Lockport Dec. 5, 6 and 9 to a police informant who caught all three deals on audio tape.
Washington was sentenced to boot camp-style "shock incarceration" in June after pleading guilty to attempted fourth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance for having crack cocaine in Lockport Dec. 17. Washington is due for release Jan. 24, according to the state prison website.

BERNARDSVILLE – Possible impropriety in the police department's handling of two traffic summonses is being reviewed by the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office at the request of Mayor Lee Honecker.
Honecker gave few details about the matter in an interview last Wednesday.
"It's outside my realm," he said. "I passed it on to the proper authority." The mayor refused to comment when asked to identify the authority involved, but other sources confirmed that it is the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office.
His concern about the case, Honecker said, was spurred by rumors he'd heard in the community during the previous month. The mayor said he spoke to both Borough Attorney John Pidgeon and the municipal prosecutor before seeking the outside review.
"I did not want it placed upon me," Honecker said, "the notion that I was covering anything up, if there was anything to cover."
Honecker would not identify the motorist who had received the tickets. But sources said it was the 18-year-old son of Republican Borough Council candidate Janet Waite.
The Somerset County Prosecutor's Office would not comment on the matter. "We can neither confirm nor deny that an investigation is being conducted," Jack Bennett, a spokesman for the office, said in an email last Friday.
On July 17, two traffic summonses were issued to Waite's son, according to municipal court records. One summons was for leaving the scene of an accident, the other for failure to report an accident. Both were issued by Patrolman Daniel Hansson.
The summonses related to an incident that occurred at about 10:50 p.m. the previous night, July 16, at Claremont Field off Park Lane. According to a police report, the car that Waite's son had been driving that night was left at the field after it bottomed out and leaked oil. Waite's son later acknowledged he had driven the vehicle on the field and the basketball court at the field after stopping there while driving home, the report said.
The report states that Waite's son called her after the car was damaged. She came to the field to pick him up and did not contact police that night about the vehicle, according to the police report.
Police received a call from a Recreation Department official at about 10:50 a.m. on Wednesday, July 17, that a car was on the field. From the plates, police determined ownership of the vehicle and responded to the Waite home, the report said.
The summonses note that a court appearance was required. But on July 28, Hansson signed summons dismissal forms. Police Chief Kevin Valentine signed the forms the following day. On Aug. 5, Richard Guss, who was filling in as municipal prosecutor, signed off on the dismissals.
In 2013, the summons dismissal forms have been rarely filed in municipal court. Borough Court Clerk Teresa Van Allen said there have been "three or four at most" filed this year, including the two relating to Waite's son. The other forms filed this year related to parking violations and neither was signed by Valentine, Van Allen said.
On both of Waite's son's forms, a reason for the dismissal was noted. "Upon supervisory review, it was determined that the summonses were issued in error," was written on each.
Typically, motorists who are seeking to have summonses dismissed meet with the municipal prosecutor before a court appearance to make their case. If the prosecutor agrees, they will make a dismissal recommendation to the municipal judge, who can accept or reject it. In most cases, a judge will concur with the prosecutor.
'Not In Secret'
In an interview last Thursday, Valentine said he reviewed the issuance of the summonses after being contacted by Janet Waite.
He did not specify the date of the contact, but said she contended the two summonses given to her son were not justified. "I was directly contacted by the mother, who brought this to my attention," Valentine said.
"This is the first I'm hearing about it," the chief replied, when asked about the county prosecutor possibly looking into the matter.
Valentine strongly defended his actions in the matter. "This is not something that was done secretly or quietly," he said of the dismissals. "A supervisory review made the determination that the summonses should not have been issued in the first place."
The incident did not involve any other vehicles, and there is no indication on the police report that anything in the park was damaged, outside of an "oil spill on basketball courts.''
Summons dismissals, Valentine asserted, are not uncommon if police feel it's warranted.
A Republican, Janet Waite is one of four candidates seeking two council seats in the Tuesday, Nov. 5 general election. Valentine said he was not concerned about those in the community who might draw politics into the incident. "I have no idea how other people perceive my actions," he said.
"I don't have the power to dismiss a summons," Valentine added. "Final authority rests with the borough prosecutor and the judge. This was discussed with the officer involved. He agreed with my actions.
"I strongly believe that anyone who comes to the police department with a complaint should feel they got treated fairly and with courtesy and respect," Valentine said. "We followed procedures in this case. The prosecutor was consulted. It has nothing to do with public figures.
"I'm the chief executive of a police department," Valentine concluded. "You have to make tough decisions and people don't always agree with your decisions. It doesn't mean (the decisions) are wrong."
'As A Parent'
"I did contact Kevin, as a concerned parent," Janet Waite said during an interview on Monday. "I didn't think my son was treated correctly.
"Did I go as a political candidate?" she added. "No. It was the last thing on my mind."
Waite is a member of the borough's volunteer Community Emergency Response Team (CERT). Along with the police department, CERT set up and run a shelter at Bernards High School last fall in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
Valentine's decision to sign-off on dismissing her son's summonses, Waite said, would not affect her ability to fairly weigh issues involving the police department, if she is elected to the council in November. "I don't think it compromises that," she said. "I do believe I can look at things objectively."
On Monday Valentine said he followed all proper procedures as detailed in the police department's policy regarding the dismissal of complaints.
He said that after talking to Waite and reviewing the matter, he determined that the incident did not warrant the charges. The car bottomed out on a bad road leading to the park, he said, but was not actually involved in an accident.
He said he sent the reports to Municipal Prosecutor Stephen Davis for his review and he agreed with the chief's findings that the tickets should not be prosecuted.

We're surprised that this moment isn't being accompanied by balloons, streamers, an NHL Network special and Gary Bettman riding on a giant float. Five years ago today Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin played their first NHL game against each other. The Pens won that game 5-4. The Penguins' goals were scored by Crosby, Ric Jackman, Lasse Pirjeta and Ziggy Palffy, who had two. Sebastien Caron was in net. What a time to be alive.
To mark this occasion, here are a couple of clips of our favorite moments in this rivalry:
In other Ovechkin news, after losing 5-0 to the Devils last night, Ovi decided it would be a good idea to laugh it up with Alex Semin and Ilya Kovalchuk while Bruce Boudreau gave a press conference.
Just another example of how Ovechkin is difficult for Boudreau to work with. Just like he was last year. Is Ovi a coach killer?
Go Pens.

Erie Express blank Cleveland Titans, stay perfect
The Erie Express fumbled the ball on their first two plays from scrimmage Saturday.
They weren't much better on offense the rest of the game either.
Still, it took only one play -- D.J. Barney's 42-yard scoring pass to Terry Jackson in the final minute of the third quarter -- for the Express to beat the Cleveland Titans 7-0 at Cathedral Prep Events Center's Dollinger Field in a battle of unbeaten teams in the Premier Amateur Football League.
The defense took care of the rest as the Express moved to 5-0.
"We just made it happen," Barney said. "Sometimes it doesn't go the way you want it to go. But if you stay in it and hang together, everything clicks. It clicked for us at that point."
On the decisive touchdown pass, Barney noticed tight coverage from the Titans' secondary at the line of scrimmage so he signaled for his receivers to run slant patterns.
He connected with Jackson in stride, who raced untouched into the end zone to snap the scoreless tie with 54.6 seconds left in the third.
"Receivers have got to make plays, and that's what he did," Barney said of Jackson's lone catch of the game. The pass play accounted for one-fourth of the Express' 163 total yards.
Erie amassed only 60 yards on the previous 27 plays. Erie's offense was abysmal in the opening half, with only 31 total yards and no completed passes.
The Express ran four plays in the first quarter -- one was stopped for no gain, the other three lost yardage. They didn't produce positive yards until Lavar Goff's 6-yard run with 10:35 left in the half.
The Express failed to record a first down until the 6:45 mark of the second quarter.
They showed some life on that series, but it stalled at the Titans' 27-yard line with an incomplete pass on fourth down.
Still, the Express nearly outgained the Titans (3-1), who finished with 175 yards. The teams combined for seven fumbles, two turnovers and 17 penalties.
Both defenses took advantage of those equally ineffective offenses. The Express simply made a few more key plays on defense.
Erie blocked a 24-yard field goal midway through the first quarter. The Express also kept the Titans off the scoreboard on three possessions that began inside Erie territory.
Cleveland blocked a punt with 5:48 left in the game, which gave the Titans the ball at Erie's 40-yard line. But Denzel Jones made a leaping interception over two receivers two plays later.
"They stepped up big," Barney said of Erie's defense. "They kept the goose egg up there (on the scoreboard) when (the Titans) were in our red zone. They came through. They held up because the offense didn't put up too many points."

One of the most common questions about tropical fish, especially from hobbyists just starting out, is how many fish can I keep in an aquarium? The answer is, "It depends." It depends on several things.
How big do the fish eventually get? Most local fish stores sell juvenile tropical fish. Is your fish aquarium completely cycled? This means that the "good" bacteria are there to convert fish wastes/ammonia into nitrite, and others to convert nitrite into nitrate.
The answer also involves the fact that one oscar is not equal to one neon tetra. And 1 inch of neon does not equal 1 inch of oscar. It also really depends on whether you have live aquatic plants in the aquarium, and how much you feed your tropical fish.
1) With the water, filter and aquatic plants from a good existing aquarium, the Nitrogen Cycle was already pretty much established.2) The live aquatic plants – a large Amazon sword, a big bunch of Rotala indica, a whole bunch of crypts, and a large water lettuce floating on top that needed trimming every couple of days or so – this also drives the Nitrogen Cycle.3) The tropical fish get fed very small amounts two or three times a day – one day a week they do not get fed at all.4) A 25 percent water change every week – every week!
Now for the fish in the aquarium:8 medium angelfish, about silver dollar body size, to be moved to a larger aquarium soon.2 giant danios.2 platies.2 Colombian red fin tetras.3 cory cats.3 clown plecos
By any of the "rules" this aquarium is way overcrowded – and yet it works. The tropical fish are fine and thriving, the water conditions are ideal, and the aquatic plants are growing well. The keys are that the tropical fish were all healthy and not stressed to start with, they are not being fed too much, there are lots and lots of live aquatic plants in the fish aquarium, and the aquarium gets regular weekly water changes. Rather than going by hard and fast rules for how many tropical fish can be kept in a fish aquarium, it is much more important to understand what things determine how many fish you can keep in an aquarium.

I'm stuck. I can only have my 55 gallon which is packed with 36+ Emerald Corys (raised from hatching in the same tank!), 8 tetras (neons & cardinals), 2 danios, and over 2 dozen platys and swordtails. It was not intended; I was stunned by the rapidity and frequency of the platys & swordtails reproducing!!!! I've been following the steps listed in this article and so far, so good. Thanks for reassuring me about maintaining an overcrowded tank. (Nobody new will be added until the population is well under control. Lesson learned about livebearers.)
Brian riverton, UT
This is all good info. I hear pet store employees give customers the old 1" pf fish per 2 ga of water rule. when in fact this does not translate over very effectively for larger deeper bodied fish or wehter they are adding all of their fish before the nitrogen cycle has been well established.
Chocolate Delight Moose Pass, AK
Great information. I have setup quite a few "new" setups this way making them ideal for adding fish right away. My 50 gal sometimes looks over stocked to me but it has been setup for over 2 yrs, heavily planted and large weekly water changes. Also all my fish are nano size :)

Soon after BMW's 6 Series coupe and convertible went on sale as 2004 models, enthusiasts began to wonder about the prospect of a high-performance M edition. After all, BMW is well-known for its potent M3 and M5 models. The M6 is available as both a coupe and a convertible, and it shares its drivetrain with BMW's M5 sedan. Competition for the M6 includes the Jaguar XKR, Cadillac XLR-V and Aston Martin V-8 Vantage.
The M6's 5.0-liter V-10 produces 500 horsepower and 383 pounds-feet of torque and teams with a seven-speed sequential manual transmission. The M6 accelerates from a standstill to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds.
The M6's navigation system offers real-time traffic information.
For 2008, there's a new headlight design and new LED turn signals, as well as a thicker brake light strip higher on the rear deck lid.
BMW says the M6's suspension is "built exclusively for sporting performance," yet the coupe offers all the space and comfort of a typical 2+2 model. Changes to the basic 6 Series design include a modified front air dam with large secondary intake openings that provide additional engine-cooling air. Side sills are aerodynamically contoured. Forged aluminum 19-inch wheels were developed specifically for the M6, and an "M" logo is present in the ornamental side slats.
The coupe's roof is made of carbon fiber, and the car has a better power-to-weight ratio than the M5 sedan. A speed-sensing M Differential Lock promises optimum traction even in difficult conditions. Dynamic Stability Control incorporates two driving programs, including M Dynamic mode, which BMW says is "tailored to the sporting driver." The new convertible is available with a black or gray soft-top.
An optional high beam assist is available for 2008 that turns on the high beams automatically when necessary in low-light situations. Drivers can override the automatic system, however, and turn off the bright beams.
To make the iDrive system more user-friendly, six "favorite" buttons have been added that can store radio stations, phone numbers or street addresses. Also, for 2008 the air conditioner can be adjusted without going through the cumbersome iDrive system.
In addition to the performance potential of a V-10 engine, the M6 offers plenty of luxury amenities. M sport seats include power lumbar and backrest width adjustment. Three-stage heating includes the seat bottom, backrest and side supports. Twin contoured rear seats are separated by a cushion.
Merino leather upholstery covers the seats, console, handbrake lever, door panels, door handles and armrests. Wood trim is installed, but a piano-black finish is optional. MDrive lets the driver select preferred drivetrain and suspension settings at the touch of a button, and an M-specific head-up display is available.
Under the Hood
The M6 is powered by a 5.0-liter V-10 that develops 500 hp and 383 pounds-feet of torque. The engine can rev as high as 8,250 rpm. At start-up, the engine produces a "comfort-oriented" 400 hp, which is more suitable for urban traffic. A button on the selector-lever cover increases output to the M6's top rating. The V-10 drives a seven-speed sequential manual transmission. Drivelogic provides 11 gear-change options: six in sequential mode and five in automatic-shifting mode.
All-disc antilock brakes, Dynamic Stability Control, side-impact airbags for front-seat occupants, and side curtain airbags (in coupes) are standard.

I went riding on my bike
With a spanner, pump, back and front light
That's all I need to ride in
A marathon I'm entering
I'm raising for a charity
Sponsors come running to me
I've learnt to cut that yellow line
And park my bike there at any time
The minute money for the meter men
The road tax up-to-date today
The petrol pumps been blown sky high
My MOT now a far cry
I got a birthday just last week
But you're not silly, believe in me
We sold our car to skip the fight
A pound I found I couldn't find
Oh no, you don't fool Maurice
I've had my fill of petrol fumes
Attached myself to big balloons
And pumped them full of precious air
The traffic jam looks with despair
I've ridden for your charity
And on my bike I long to see
Pedal-pushers at a mellow pace
With directions simple to trace
I hope we get that extra change
Improve that child's broken wing
I've learned to ride your yellow line
And park my bike there any time
The minute money for the meter men
The bike tax up-to-date today
I've been riding treetop high
My insurance is by the by
The minute money for the meter
The petrol pumps been blown sky high

Obama narrows Chief of Staff choice
For the fifth time President Obama must choose the aid who will be the Oval Office gatekeeper. The latest "man behind the throne" Jack Lew has been tapped to be the next Treasury secretary. Advisors say the President has narrowed his list of candidates down to two for a new Chief of Staff.
The position is one of the administration's most powerful and least understood jobs, and the title Chief of Staff really doesn't convey the reach of the position.
"The Chief of Staff is probably the most important person in the White House after the President," said Political Science Professor at Lafayette College John Kincaid.
He says chiefs under this administration hold a lot of influence. And it's not an easy job to do, it has unique difficulties and pressures and it's very easy to alienate people.
"The Chief of Staff controls the president's schedule, decides who sees the president, oversees all of the staff functions of the White House and also provides policy input for the president."
Kincaid says the average Chief of Staff serves about 2.5 years. The role that person serves changes depending on the state of the country and the man in the Oval Office. But anyone controlling who gets to meet with the president is definitely in an extremely important role.
"The Chief of Staff needs to be an excellent manager and administrator," shared Kincaid. "Have the ability to work with the president and also have the ability to work with all the ego's in the White House and over on Capitol Hill."

GW Women's Tennis Battles to Top Xavier, 4-3
Colonials Come Back to Claim Four Singles Matches Over Musketeers
April 4, 2014
WASHINGTON - The George Washington women's tennis team defeated Xavier, 4-3, in a near four-hour match on Friday afternoon at the GW Tennis Center on the Mount Vernon Campus.
The Musketeers (13-5) took a 1-0 lead after claiming the doubles point, but the Colonials (6-5) powered back with singles victories from sophomore Lana Robins, senior Leah Pascarella, freshman Grace Egger and sophomore Christina Carpenter to defeat their non-conference foes.
Xavier won the doubles point at Nos. 2 and 3 when the duo of Egger and Robins fell to Cristina Di Lorenzo and Daniella Patton, 2-8, and Pascarella and Stephanie Wei were edged, 6-8, by Allyson Westling and Andrea Wolf. Freshman Taylor Nederlander and senior Isabella Escobar were knotted, 5-5, with XU's Alex Brinker and Sydney Liggins at the No. 1 spot but the match went unfinished.
Pascarella then earned a 6-2, 7-5 decision over Brinker at the No. 2 singles spot and Egger fought to defeat Wolf in the fifth flight, 7-5, 6-4. Robins battled for a 7-5, 7-6 (1) win at No. 1 over Liggins and Carpenter clinched the match at the No. 6 spot with a three-set win over Lizzie Oosterbaan by scores of 6-2, 5-7, 6-3.
GW is back in action at the GW Tennis Center on Sunday when it welcomes Atlantic 10 opponent Richmond for a 1 p.m. match.

Savannah sugar refinery blast injures dozens
ARTICLE TOOLS: Email Article | Print-Friendly Format
SAVANNAH, Ga. -- At least 40 workers were injured -- some critically -- and six people are missing as the result of a massive sugar dust explosion and fire at the old Dixie Crystals refinery in Port Wentworth near the Georgia Ports Authority. The explosion occurred about 7:20 p.m., authorities said. John Sheptor, CEO of the Imperial Sugar Co. that now operates the refinery, was on site when the explosion occurred in a silo where the refined sugar is kept until it's packaged. The blast apparently was the result of the spontaneous combustion of sugar dust in the silo. "We are concerned about the families," Sheptor told reporters at an 11:15 p.m. news briefing. Tony Holmes of Garden City, a forklift operator at the refinery, was in the break room when the blast occurred. "I heard the explosion," he said. "The building shook, and the lights went out. I thought the roof was falling in. ... I saw people running. I saw some horrific injuries. ... People had clothes burning. Their skin was hanging off. Some were bleeding." About 100 second-shift workers were inside the facility, now called the Imperial Sugar Co., at the time of the blast. No fatalities had been reported late Thursday as a result of the explosion, said Sgt. Mike Wilson, spokesman for the Savannah-Chatham police department. But other reports indicated at least six people were unaccounted for. Wilson said the fire resulting from the explosion was contained to the refinery's bag room area. But firefighters on scene were reporting as late as midnight that gusty wind was continuing to fan some flames. Clayton Scott, assistant director of Chatham County Emergency Management Agency, said the refinery was a large facility. "There is still a significant amount of fire," he said, describing the refinery as covering an area the size of a Super Wal-Mart. Metro police Maj. Gerry Long told reporters at a 9:30 p.m. news briefing that 28 people had been taken to area hospitals. That number increased as the night wore on. "From what I understand, the damage to the building was relatively extensive." Long said. Nakishya Hill, a machine operator who said she escaped from the third floor of the refinery on the Savannah River, said there was fire all over the five-story building. "All I know is, I heard a loud boom, and everything came down," said Hill, who was uninjured except for blisters on her elbow. "When I got up, I went down and found a couple of people, and we climbed out of there from the third floor to the first floor. Half of the floor was gone. The second floor was debris, the first floor was debris. All I could do when I got down was take off running." Family members were staged at the nearby Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Port Wentworth to await word on the status of family members. The U.S. Coast Guard closed the Savannah River from the Talmadge Bridge to the Houlihan Bridge, blocking all vessel traffic, both commercial and recreational. Coast Guard helicopters and boat crews are searching the Savannah River for any people in the water, the Coast Guard said. Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Kevin Lynn said the river shutdown was part of a search-and-rescue mission. "We have no reports of persons in the water," Lynn said. "We do have small boats searching the waterway. We also have helicopters searching the waterway. We have no reports of persons recovered from the water.? Savannah-Chatham Police Chief Michael Berkow, addressing reporters near the scene about 11:15 p.m., said police officers were driving some ambulances. "What I saw when I arrived on the scene was really critically burned individuals," Berkow said. Beth Frits, a spokeswoman for Doctors Hospital in Augusta, said she knew of 10 critically injured patients being flown or driven by ambulance to the Joseph M. Still Burn Center there. "We just don?t know how many more we'll be getting," she said about 9:30 p.m. Doctors Hospital flew a burn surgeon -- Dr. Fred Mullins -- to Savannah to help treat the injured. Dr. Jay Goldstein, an emergency room physician at Memorial University Medical Center, said a short time later that 30 to 35 patients were being treated, and all were in critical condition. Goldstein said no more were expected by ambulance, but it was impossible to say how many would arrive on their own. - Savannah Morning News staff writers contributed to this report.

STAINES, UK - 3rd September 2013 –A new survey, commissioned by FeedHenry, has revealed low levels of mobile application adoption and sophistication among the UK's largest enterprises, limiting opportunities for increased workforce productivity and profitability. Vanson Bourne interviewed one hundred organisations with more than one thousand employees to understand the level and complexity of mobile app development and deployment to mobile workforces. While enterprises expressed a desire to develop a unified mobile application strategy, the majority revealed ad-hoc mobile app deployments to support mobile workers.
Senior IT decision makers interviewed revealed that the large majority of organisations (87%) have deployed workforce apps and that demand is accelerating with plans to increase the number next year. Almost half recognise (44%) that mobile apps play an important role in their business strategy but less than a tenth (7%) admitted to having fully deployed a mobile app strategy. Responses indicate that, despite a clear understanding of the benefits, many companies still have a reactive, unplanned approach to app development and are only beginning to consider platform selection to help them formalise their mobile strategy.
Of those companies using mobile apps for their field workforce, improved productivity and enabling the flow of real-time information were cited as the two most important requirements. The majority of apps currently deployed were for simple tasks such as data entry, however, a third reported more sophisticated apps that use device features such as camera and location-based services. This finding indicates that organisations are at an early stage of enterprise app adoption, with more mature companies fully embracing device features, while others are simply mobilising paper processes. Few organisations are using app reporting and analytics to measure field workforce productivity gains and by association, return on mobile (ROM), with almost three quarters (73%) of the survey sample still using traditional work orders.
The FeedHenry findings confirmed that perceived security, cost and management overhead are major inhibitors to developing and implementing a mobile app strategy. A third of senior IT executives cited authentication and security of corporate information flowing to and from devices as their main concerns, followed closely by the cost and complexity of developing and managing apps.
While nine out of ten of the organisations had adopted cloud-based services to support traditional business processes, there was little evidence of these enterprises using the cloud for their mobile initiatives. This may be a direct consequence of many organisations having a past history of consumer app development. Consumer facing apps generally have robust API infrastructures and require little backend integration compared to employee apps. Almost a third of the sample stated that backend integration of enterprise apps in the cloud would be the next pressing issue.
Chris Marsh, principal analyst, Yankee Group Enterprise Research, comments, "Enterprise mobility has the power to improve employee productivity, transform business processes and drive new revenue streams. This has elevated mobility to a strategic level. However, this survey shows that many app deployments are tactical rather than strategic and that companies should look more to cloud based and agile mobile application strategies to support their growing mobile workforces, without which enterprise productivity and profitability improvements will suffer."
"There will be enormous gains for enterprises that move from tactical mobile app deployments to a more strategic approach to enterprise mobility that underpins workforce productivity and customer service," comments Cathal McGloin, CEO, FeedHenry, "We are starting to see organisations unleash the power of multiple enterprise apps that transform their business, yet too many are still held back by concerns over cost, security and control. FeedHenry's cloud based mobile application platform enables enterprises to deliver ROM by enabling flexible app development and management, while providing secure backend integrations in the cloud. This marriage of cloud and mobility is empowering innovative businesses to provide apps that support mobile workers and meet customer demand, increasing productivity, visibility, and engagement in the process."

Habetz, Van Wagener honored at cocktail buffet
A cocktail buffet was held at the home of Edmund and Cheryl Habetz of Crowley. The August 16th formal honored Ann Louise Habetz and Michael Steven Van Wagener in celebration of their marriage engagement.
The newly betrothed couple plans to wed during a 1 p.m. ceremony on October 4, 2008 at St. Michael's Catholic Church.
The bride-elect is the daughter of Allan and Gwen Habetz, Sr. of Crowley.
The prospective groom is the son of Steven and Holly Van Wagener of Southaven, Mississippi.
Hosting the event were the families of Jack and Sylvia Habetz, Edmund and Cheryl Habetz, Kenny and Penny Habetz and Pat Habetz.
On her special day, the honoree wore a sleeveless V-neck sundress in chocolate brown. The dress featured an empire waist with a softly pleated skirt and was embellished with an espresso toned floral embroidered design. Her ensemble was completed with a pair of gold, strappy high heeled sandals.
The mother of the bride-elect was attired in a black and camel two-toned, capped-sleeve blouse accented with an exquisite beading along the neckline. Her top was complimented with a pair of black dress pants.
The mother of the groom wore a sleeveless black and white silk dress with a lovely floral design.
The Habetz's home was beautifully decorated for this joyous occasion. A large arrangement of white gladiolus adorned the dining room table, while a beautiful mixed display of stargazers and calla lilies with a variety of greeneries and willow branches added to the decor of the main living room. Several smaller vases of pink roses combined with baby's breath were placed throughout the home.
Guests attending registered from Hassloch, Germany; Florida, Mississippi, Texas, New Orleans, Baton Rouge and surrounding Acadiana areas.

Incorrect Data Order: In the Original Contribution entitled "Long-term Efficacy of Bivalirudin and Provisional Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Blockade vs Heparin and Planned Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Blockade During Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization: REPLACE-2 Randomized Trial" published in the August 11, 2004, issue of JAMA (2004;292:696-703), the data were presented out of order. In the sentence, in the third column on page 699, that read "Among patients at high risk, however, death occurred significantly less frequently with bivalirudin than with heparin plus Gp IIb/IIIa blockade (6.0% vs 3.9%, respectively, P = .047)," the parenthetical data should have been presented in reverse order to read "(3.9% vs 6.0%, respectively, P = .047)."

Kids & Money: How Much Should You Pay in Allowance?
|Email Print
When it comes to teaching your children how to responsibly handle money, an allowance can be a good tool. An allowance, whether it's tied to chores or not, can provide your children with their own money to mange, and provide you with the chance to offer hands-on, practical experience related to finances.
However, deciding to offer your kids an allowance is only the beginning. You also have to figure out how much is appropriate for your children to receive. It's no good if your child's allowance doesn't provide him or her with enough to effectively manage their decisions, or realistically save up for some items.
Deciding How Much to Pay in Allowance
As you decide how much to pay your child in allowance, there are three main factors to consider:
- Age: First of all, consider how old your child is. An eight year old has very different spending habits and requirements than a 15 year old. Take that into account. The things that a young child has access to, and can buy, are usually less expensive. Additionally, it may not be necessary for your pre-teen child to set aside as much for long term savings, while you will want to provide a bigger allowance to an older child, and ask that a greater amount go toward college savings or some other long term event. Another age related consideration is whether or not your child has a job. If your teen is old enough for an after school job, it might be time to wean him or her off the allowance.
- What your child is expected to pay for: Another consideration is what you expect your child to pay for out of his or her allowance. If the allowance is just for learning to save and make wise spending decisions, it doesn't need to be as large as if you expect your child to help pay for extracurricular activities or buy all of his or her own clothes. Be clear about what you expect your child to pay for ahead of time so that he or she knows exactly how to allocate his or her funds.
- Your family's circumstances: You also need to consider your family's circumstances. While it would be nice if you could afford to give your child a very generous allowance, you might not be a in a financial position to do so. Carefully examine your finances and use that as one of the factors in deciding how much to give your kids in terms of allowance. Let your children know the reasons behind the smaller allowance, and make sure that they see you practicing frugality, and making sacrifices. That way, it's more of a family effort.
Adjusting Your Child's Allowance
An allowance doesn't need to be set in stone. Periodically speak with your children about their financial goals, and their allowances. You can add more to the allowance as your kids get older, or reduce the allowance as they make more of their own money. Be clear about why you are paying allowance, and make it clear that an allowance can be adjusted over time.

Federal Communications Commission:
MDS and ITFS Two-Way Transmissions
OGC-99-23: Published: Dec 28, 1998. Publicly Released: Dec 28, 1998.

View Report (HTML)
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) new rule on Multipoint Distribution Service (MDS) and Instructional Television Fixed Service (ITFS) two-way transmissions. GAO noted that: (1) the rule would permit multichannel MDS and ITFS licensees to make more flexible use of their 6 megahertz (MHz) channels through the use of digital technology; (2) MDS is primarily used for wireless cable service to subscribers, while ITFS is primarily used for one-way video service to students; (3) under the revised rule, licensees would be able to utilize all or any part of their 6 MHz channels for two-way service; they will have the ability to use response station hubs as collection points for transmissions from a subscriber for which the operators will be issued blanket licenses instead of separate licenses for each hub; redefines signal booster stations to allow such stations to originate transmissions as well as to relay them from other stations; and permits booster stations to cellularize wireless cable operations in areas too large to be served by a single station; (4) the rule would also permit ITFS licensees to lease excess channel capacity to MDS operators; and (5) FCC complied with applicable requirements in promulgating the rule.

All I Want for Christmas
Using Cameras to Create Wish Lists, Kids at a Homeless Shelter Dream About the Simple Things Everyone Else Takes for Granted
"I took a picture of a bed," says Daysha Sierra, 7. She'd had her own until she moved to the shelter 3 months before. "You're not as comfortable sleeping on the floor," she says.
Time and time again the children chose basic necessities over iPods or fancy video games. "I learned these children recognize what's truly important in life," says Solomon.
Things are already looking up for Daysha. She and her mother, LaRhonda McCray, 30, and siblings Devahn, 9, Ahliyah, 4, and Jahlil, 3, moved into a low-income apartment in Raleigh last month. They still don't have the money to buy enough beds to go around, but Daysha is already thinking ahead: "When I do get my own bed," she says, "I'd like to cover it with sheets of my favorite singer—Britney Spears."
Gabriell Joyner knows the first thing she would do if she ever gets her own bedroom. "Have a sleepover!" she says. "You can't have sleepovers in the shelter." Joyner photographed a house she wishes to live in with her family: mother Jacqueline, 46, and sisters Kerrie, 16, Sade, 13, and Alisha, 11. Joyner's mom says she's glad her daughter had a chance to express herself. "The camera allowed Gabriell to have a voice," she says. "Most people don't listen to homeless people. They can't identify. I hope this helps them understand that we're people, too."
I guess I just want to grow up so fast because I want my life to turn out a little better than it is now," says Anneka Hooper, 12, of her wish to attend college. As a sixth-grader making A's and B's, Anneka has been living in the shelter with her mother, Malinda, 32, and sister Angel, 5, since September. Malinda says her daughter used to talk about becoming a veterinarian; now she wants to help others as a photojournalist. But first she wants her degree. "I'm going to be so happy when I get that college diploma," she says. "I'm going to jump for joy."
The Chance brothers, Jamison and John, are polite but a bit shy. But the boys, who have lived in the Raleigh shelter since August with their mother, Bernice Denning, 37, and their three sisters—Melissa, 15, Jasmine, 8, and LaShondra, 5—didn't hesitate when asked to photograph their holiday wishes. "I took a picture of a laptop computer," says Jamison, 13, a quarterback on his flag football team who hopes to one day make it to the NFL. "The first thing I'd do is go on the Internet. I could look up stuff for school. And I might play games." Might? "Yeah," he says, laughing, "I'd play games, too." John, 11, wishes for good friends so that he "can play football" like his big bro. "I'm fast and I can catch, but I can hardly throw yet," he says. When asked why he took a photo of two of his fifth-grade classmates at Washington Elementary instead of a toy, John pauses. "An iPod can have a dead battery," he says, "but a friend can stay with you all the time you need them."

Procol Harum keyboardist awarded royalties
Brit keyboardist Matthew Fisher has won 40% share of the royalties for "A Whiter Shade of Pale," the 1960s hit he recorded with Procol Harum.
Band mates Gary Brooker and Keith Reid have claimed authorship of the song and have received the majority of its royalties.
A London justice agreed with Fisher's claim that he deserved more money than he has previously received, but not the nearly $2 million that Fisher had requested.

Through the Griffins' "Put A Lid On It!" helmet safety program, presented by Helen DeVos Children's Hospital, thousands of kids across West Michigan have made pledges to always wear their helmets when they ride their bikes. In return for their pledge, each child receives two free tickets from the Griffins.
During the 2015-16 season, one of those kids was also chosen at random as the winner of a brand new Giant bike from Village Bike & Fitness.
At the Griffins' game on April 16, 2016, 9-year-old Ava Jahnke of Middleville received her new bike. Congratulations Ava, and good job to all the other kids who use their heads and "Put A Lid On It!"
- A helmet protects you by absorbing and distributing the impact of a crash before it reaches your brain and reduces the risk of brain injury by 88%.
- Use of bicycle helmets would prevent one death every day and one brain injury every four minutes.
- Falls can happen anywhere. A fall from two feet can cause a brain injury affecting your ability to see, think, walk or talk.
- Brain injury is the leading cause of disability and death in bicycle accidents.
- Bicycle-related deaths are highest in children ages 10-14.
- Brain injury is the most serious injury to inline skaters who do not wear protective gear.

Multiple sclerosis is an acute or chronic, steadily progressive or remittent disease of unknown cause, involving chiefly the white matter of the central nervous system. Spinal cord and brain (including cerebrum, cerebellum and brain stem) are involved, concomitantly or separately. Peripheral nerves (cranial and spinal) and their roots are seldom affected. The cellular gray matter of the brain and spinal cord may infrequently be the seat of lesions, but the clinical features are mainly dependent on extensive involvement of fiber tracts. Inasmuch as the onset, course and degree of dysfunction resulting from the disease are characterized by great variability from one person to the next, though within the framework of a general pattern common to most, and since the cause is unknown, it has been proposed that the illness is not a specific disease entity but a syndrome, perhaps polyetiologic.
The prominent identifying features of the condition are (1) discreteness
