I find sumfink positive in most situations Nick
as u prolly already know
Everyone here has to deal with visas.
Really pretty weak excuses in my opinion. However I am skeptical about the entire thing. She has insurance if she works at Katsakorn. So the medical fees are covered. If you decide not to get involved in the kid's life (if this is not a scam) to a large degree but not be a deadbeat dad, there are good infant care centers in Bangkok and they are not expensive. You could fund that, and the international kindergarten in a few years, etc. Of course get the paternity test.
If you want to spend your life with this woman, why wouldn't you buy the house in her name (after the P Test). It is a better option that structuring it in your name if she is a scammer anyway. Then she can just kick you out instead of hiring Khun Somchai, the guy behind all those Thai smiles.

If you want to challenge the world's most powerful factions, you're going to get attacked in all sorts of ways. That's the nature - the essence - of power: it is capable of exacting a cost for defying it.--Glenn Greenwald
you either give a shit about your kid and make an action plan or you say fuck it, and forget it all.
who cares about your past telecom industry blabber. you either forget it, be a long distance daddy, or get your ass here and figure it the fuck out.
that, or stop asking such stupid fucking questions.
man, i was in your spot in a way. i got a girl pregnant, sans marriage. what to do?
-abort the kid
-keep the kid and split
-keep the kid and work it out
not too fucking hard a choice, although the road is hard (my kid was just born) but the road mending a relationship was tough, as getting preggo without a long term plan can be stressful- and we were stressed. big time.
but ultimately you have only a couple choices. if you look inside yourself, you will know what to do.
stop philandering and decide. if you want to be a dad, move to thailand.
if you want to get her stateside, then do what it takes. if she wont and youre really powerless, then move here, or stop bitching. (or i guess you could just send money to her , which usually ends you up in a stickman column)
good luck.
i suggest talking to your friends. they know you best. this is a rough rough call. on the other hand, if you know that you wont accept anything less than being a dad, its a simple thing from that point on.
if you want neither, then its easiest for you to just turn your back.
I think the OP should first suggest to the lady in question that she has this pregnancy confirmed by somebody with medical knowledge before he moves onto paternity worries...it may be that she is just stressed or not eating well and isn't pregnant at all...
ETA: I have had another thought (unlikely - but in the event of this lady not reading the information contained with her pills thoroughly): Is she taking a break between sheets or is she taking another sheet as soon as the last is finished? If the latter then her periods will stop. They will stop and not return until she takes a break...Unlikely, but "just in case".

i was in a bind recently just like this dude.
but i want to be a father so bad, im willing to make some sacrifices. it isnt perfect, and i do need to reapt that to myself. but saying you cant move to thailand because of your job or political strife...give me a break. its simply about priorities.
but i get the sense this is just a wind up.
consider me had.
Op here. Again I appreciate the positive comments and for the negative guys....."you can take a flying leap up a billy goat's ass," as my grandmother would say so eloquently.
There are many possibilities here and I'm trying to sort through them thinking that there might be some people here that have been through similar situations and might have found things I have not yet considered.
This girl is pregnant as confirmed by her doctor already, she is university educated, works in a bank, and isn't a bargirl.
I'm trying to think of options if she doesn't not want to move here. Maybe an American company that would hire me. I'd work at McDonalds if I had to and thought I could make a modest income to be closer. I wonder what the prospects are of landing a job with an American company in Thailand. Anyone have experience with this?

Hi 5 With Calypso Diving's IDC and PADI IE.
Comments Off
Congratulations to our 5 new PADI Instructors. It has been an intensive couple of weeks at Calypso Diving. Prior to the Instructor Development Course (IDC) there were 3 days of in water and classroom preparation for the candidates to home their skills and knowledge. Then PADI Course Director, Sue Gibbins, and PADI Master Instructors Andrew Barrett and Peter Tay guided the 5 candidates from, France, The Philippines and China through the IDC and onto the ultimate goal, passing the PADI Instructor Exam (IE) and becoming instructors themselves. The IDC consists of knowledge development presentations, confined water presentations and open water presentations. With the IE testing the knowledge and skills they have acquired across 2 days. It was all worth the enormous effort which was put in by the candidates and staff, and we now have 5, very happy, new PADI Instructors on Boracay. Congratulations.
If you would like information on on our up and coming IDC's please email:- email@example.com
Angi and KF Go Pro.
Comments Off
Angi Troy left the exotic climate of the UK and embarked on an adventure to become a PADI PRO. Angi was with us for just over 10 weeks starting with the PADI Open Water course and worked her way up to becoming a PADI Divemaster. We look forward to seeing Angi when she returns this month. Angi will be working full time with us as a Divemaster gaining experience and hopefully going onto becoming an instructor in the future.
KF Chan joined us from Hong Kong for nearly two weeks for an intensive Divemaster course, thank goodness he completed PADI eLearning prior to arrival. Although it was a short time KF grasped what was required from a Divemaster and will be back again soon, on his next vacation, to gain more hands on experience with Divemaster duties and assisting on courses before going onto become an instructor next year.
Congratulations to you both and all the best in the future.
Kevin's Divemaster Graduation.
Comments Off
Our good friend Sir Kevin of England came to visit us once more and this time completed Emergency First Response and PADI Rescue Diver before Chris and Andrew put him through his paces on the PADI Divemaster course. Lots of fun was had by all during the courses and we finished off with the traditional snorkel test. See you soon.
Second Maniguin Relief Trip.
Comments Off
Following on from an enormously successful first trip with relief goods for the people of Maniguin Island we went again. With further donations from our divers and money still left over from the first trip, Christmas presents purchased in Manila, along with soft drinks and sacks of rice were packed onto Isla once again and we headed off to the remote island to ensure a very happy Christmas. The people again greeting us with open arms and words of thanks. The Captain of the island community said she would protect the Maniguin dive sites for future generations to enjoy, a move in the right direction. The Captain also told us that they are starting to receive Government aid now as well. Calypso Diving would like to thank everyone who kindly donated.
Beach Clean UP.
Comments Off
We decided to conduct a beach clean up post Super Typhoon Yolanda and pre Christmas. The whole team was involved and we had a great time. It was interesting that there was not as much trash as we expected following the typhoon. We still retrieved glass bottles, plastic bottles, plastic fragments and everyday trash. It was great to see critters like pipe horses, ghost pipefish, shrimps and crabs. Once back we segregated the trash for disposal and recycling. Gery rescued an orang-utan crab and returned him safely back to the ocean. Great job Team.

In Reply.—Thank you for your letter of support. As we agree on so much, permit me to show you why a physician such as you, dedicated to practicing good medicine, is part of the problem both of us want to correct. When a physician uses phrases like "standard care" and "standardized guidelines," the physician has been duped and subtly tyrannized by the law and the body politic—the legal imperative. This is the consummate success story of authoritarianism: unwittingly, you think as the authorities want you to and act for them.
It has not always been so, but national standards in medicine have evolved into essential legal instruments that the legal imperative enforces. Legal actions are dependent on standards provided by physicians:
Professional negligence or malpractice is a special instance of negligence in which professional standards of care have been developed for persons possessing or claiming to possess special knowledge

Speech of Atiyyah Saqr :1/ ENGAGEMENT RING
"The engagement ring or wedding ring has a history of thousands of years old. Some people claim that the Pharaohs were the first to invent it long before the Greeks had any notion of it.
Others say that it stems from an old custom still upheld by people. By this they are referring to tying the bride and the bridegroom together with chains and making him ride a horse, while dragging his bride behind him to the marital home, which might be a distance of two houses. Later, it became popular to wear a ring, instead of being tied with chains.
Wearing an engagement ring on the left finger is related to an old custom of the Greeks who believed that the circulation of blood by the aorta is done through this area.
It became apparent later that the British were also fond of wearing engagement rings; in fact, they regarded the habit as purely Christian.
Muslims adopted the idea of wearing the engagement ring without any obvious reason, and some consider removing it as a bad omen. This has no basis in Islam.
Wearing an engagement or wedding ring is not considered unlawful in the Islamic perspective, as there is no religious text that determines this.
It is also not considered as a form of imitating unbelievers. We know in any case that such imitation is forbidden, especially on something contravening the teachings of Islam.
If the ring is silver, there is nothing wrong in both men and women wearing it. But if the ring is made of gold, women can wear it, while men cannot. At-Tirmidhi relates through the authentic chain of narration that the Prophet(pbuh) (peace and blessings be upon HIM) said:"Wearing gold is forbidden for male Muslims, but it is allowed for female Muslims."
According to the hadith narrated by Muslim, the Prophet forbade men from wearing gold rings. It is also narrated that when the Prophet(pbuh), peace be upon HIM, saw a man wearing a gold ring, he immediately removed it from the man's hand and threw it away. He then said:"Wearing it (a gold ring) is like wrapping one's hand with fire brand".
While investigating the matter, we came across one of the standardwedding ceremonies in Protestant church. This ceremony shows that wearing a wedding ring is a part of the religious ceremonies. The text that a celebrant recites at this occasion is as follows: "Bless, O Lord, these rings as symbol of the vows by which this man and this woman have bound themselves to each other; through Jesus Christ our Lord."Muslim jurists have clearly mentioned that imitating non-Muslims in their religious rituals is forbidden, and a severe threat is reported in the Prophetic narration in this regard. The Prophet(pbuh) said: "Whoever imitates a people is one of them."
Therefore, wearing a wedding ring is equally forbidden for both men and women.
ALLAH(swt) Knows best for us !

Extraordinary women
Extraordinary women are the fabric that holds our community together. They inspire, cure, love, bring solace and help us find our way. Her Times created a Web page to honor women, and more than 100 were nominated in the past three months.
That's a wonderful testament to our community and to the people who took the time to honor the women in their lives.
Nominations came in from mothers, fathers, husbands, sisters, brothers, wives, children, grandchildren, stepchildren, in-laws and co-workers. Most of our nominees were surprised to hear that anyone nominated them.
Every month, it is a nearly impossible task to choose four to feature, but Erie Times-News staff members Rick Sayers, Karen Burchill, Christine Yamrick, Marnie Mead and I selected the following women for December.
We will choose four women every month, and the nominees on our Extraordinary Women website will always be there to admire and to inspire.
— Pam Parker
Victoria Dollinger
Known as Mrs. D. to countless English students at the former Memorial Junior High School, Victoria Dollinger turned 100 in July. She is a well-known Prep fan and relative of the late Monsignor John Dollinger. She never had any children, but she has many admirers, including former neighbor Joelle Overlock. "I lived across the street from her for 12 years and spent a lot of time with her," Overlock said. "My best time was sitting on her porch chatting about any known subject. Vicky has a lot of nieces and nephews from all over who take great care of her. I applaud her in every way."
What touched us most: Overlock lives in North Carolina and took the time to remember a wonderful friend in Erie.
Janet Noonan
Lisa Van Riper said that Janet Noonan is an inspiration to everyone. "As a mother, she raised her kids to believe they can accomplish anything and to work hard to achieve their goals," Van Riper said.
She said Noonan, a registered nurse in labor and delivery, treats new moms as if they are her own children. "Janet is the mom every one wishes they had," she said
What touched us: Van Riper's final words in her nomination told us that Noonan is her mom. "Her amazing support gets me through the day, and the smile on her face as she holds her grandchildren melts my heart. I hope that I can be half of the woman she has become. I love you, Mom. You are my inspiration."
Kathy Coyle
Sarah Kaveney nominated Kathy Coyle, a fellow registered nurse at the Regional Cancer Center. Kaveney said Coyle's 20 years at RCC have helped many. "Kathy has worked with patients and families who are frequently given the worst news. She remains positive, professional and compassionate," Kaveney said. "You can ask Kathy any question, anytime. If I need to have someone take care of me, I would want Kathy. She has impacted so many lives, and I am glad to have her as my colleague."
What touched us: The Regional Cancer Center celebrated 25 years this year, and Kathy Coyle is one of the many staff members who have made careers of helping families cope with cancer.
Mikki Machalinski
A fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and owner of a karate studio, Mikki Machalinski has a lot of her own fans. Karen Burlingame submitted a touching nomination. "When I think of the most extraordinary person I know, I think of Mikki," Burlingame said. "She is a wonderful wife and a mother of children ages 5, 17 and 23.
"In the past four years she had beaten cancer three times, but Mikki found out recently that she had cancer again, and she invited all of her friends over to her house for a party of strength and love. You will never see Mikki without a smile on her face, and you will never hear her feel sorry for herself. She always speaks of love, life and perseverance."
What touched us: When Machalinski heard about Burlingame's nomination, it made her cry, and she shared "'I love you' means more to me than you will ever know."

"The education that I received at Lake Superior State University has opened many doors for me. I have worked with Firefighters and Paramedics for over thirty years as a co-worker, educator, and student. I have been very blessed in my life to have these opportunities. I truly believe that education is the cornerstone of everyone's career and LSSU provides the best.
My future goals are to become the Director of a Fire Science program and follow in the footsteps of the great educators that I have had the privilege of learning from. This will not be easy, but I believe that these Professors have prepared me to be successful. My achievements will be a direct result of the knowledge that they have bestowed upon me. It will then be my obligation to share this knowledge with others. "

Fire Science with Honors...
SavannahSue Rondeau
Fire Science
"I love the fast pace environment, the people in the profession, and the adrenaline rush of running into a burning building or saving someone's life," she says.
Rondeau chose Lake Superior State University because it offers the first accredited four-year fire science degree in the United States. She also jumped at the challenge of LSSU's Honors program, which requires her to complete 21 Honors credits, including 10 credits for an Honors seminar/thesis project.

Can I ask you just about this specifically this memo, you, you told the President that the Civil Rights Movement was in a mess. The leadership was fragmented, the Black community was fragmented, and White resentment was growing, can you just explain what you were warning the president about in those terms?
In, by 1966 there had been a number of riots. The, the traditional Black leadership of, in the Civil Rights Movement, Roy Wilkins of the NAACP, Whitney Young of the Urban League, A. Philip Randolph was the leader of the Leader- Leadership Conference on Civil Rights. These men had been just as unable as Lyndon Johnson or any other, ah, well meaning White liberal--or any White conservative, for that matter--to, ah, cause the riots not to happen. They were just as powerless to, ah, cause people to, not to go out and break store fronts and loot and set fire to the homes that people lived in all around them. And they, they felt frustrated. They called, in the case of Bayard Rustin, one of the great leaders of the day, ah, who was an advisor to Martin Luther King, they called for a hundred billion dollar freedom budgets.
That's great, that's good I'm going to move on.

I want to know if it will have any effect on being hired in the business world. It would not be visible at all with a t-shirt and could be easily concealed with any sort of business wear.
Views: 1222
1. Tattoos are essentially forever.
2. Tattoos are essentially forever.
3. Tattoos are essentially forever.
Whether a tattoo would affect your employment prospects depends on what type of work/career you are seeking.
If it is hidden, there is no reason for them to know you have it, so no reason why it would have any effect
Lots of business men have tattoos - it's very common by 2012. You've already stated that no one could see it in your business clothes, so go for it!
Unless it boosts or diminishes you self-confidence :). Personally, I wouldn't do it. Your body doesn't need to be injected with ink to be impressive.
Think damn hard about it. A tatt is for life, not just for Christmas. You have to believe 100% in why you want it. If you do, then make sure it is damn personal, like your DNA. Getting rid of it will burn worse than hell.
Take a long, hard look at all the fashion victims with their pointless tatts and imagine your kids thinking of how unimaginative daddy was back in 2012.
In your industry, are naked photos the norm? If so, then it may impact your career.
If not, why should an easily hidden tattoo be an issue in business?
My question is why get one at all? It used to be a rather unique thing to do (and even then it wasn't for me) but now everybody seems to get them. I never understood the attraction.
However, to answer your question, I suppose it depends on what you get, where you get it, and how discrete you are with it if necessary. Then again, if you feel it is something you may need to hide, why get it at all? Which brings me back to where I started.
I disagree. There are plenty of reasons people get tattoos and they don't need to have any kind of meaning. Would you go into someone's house and ask them what a painting on their wall meant?
With that said, I have gotten tattoos with meaning, and ones without. The one with meaning I put more thought into and am happy with years later. The one without isn't bad, but I could have gotten something better I think and I wish I had put more thought into it.
If I could go back, I probably wouldn't get any tattoos, but I don't completely regret having them either. Since I have them already, I will likely end up with more (if I ever have the money for more).
I could argue the bit about deep meaning. But, all tattoos have a story.
We are not born with tattoos. Which means that every single person with a tattoo made a decision to walk in and get a specific tattoo put onto his/her body.
That means there is a story. And yes, I most certainly *do* ask about those stories. Some are as mundane as getting drunk one night. Others are commemorative. Others, still, represent significant people in their lives. I enjoy hearing those stories.
And, yes, I do ask about paintings/art too.
I like when people ask about my tattoos. I didn't get the tattoos for them, but it is nice that they care enough about me to ask. And if they are a prick about asking or have some superficial judgement, then it tells me what I need to know about their character.
Would you go into someone's house and ask them what a painting on their wall meant?
I would!
And I often ask about tattoos. The owners seem happy to talk.

Volunteers cater to refugee children on IVD in the occupied Palestinian territories
08 December 2002
West Bank/Gaza: The United Nations Volunteer (UNV) programme in the occupied Palestinian territories this week celebrated International Volunteer Day (IVD) by holding series of art workshops for children living in refugee camps in the West Bank and Gaza.
Under the theme of "UNV working for a brighter future: We care", and with support from the United Nations Development Programme/Programme of Assistance to the Palestinian People (UNDP/PAPP), the week-long IVD celebration included workshops for children in facial paintings, drama, percussion, drawing, distribution of humanitarian aid, beautification of Al-Quds University campus, sponsoring of the "Remembering the Innocent Children's Festival" in Bethlehem, as well as visiting and distributing gifts to hospitals, elderly homes and orphanages during the Eid Al-Fitr.
"It was so enlightening and moving to learn the realities faced by the Palestinian people. UNV's commitment to the cause of peace, justice and human rights serves as a catalyst to help the people face this challenge," said Sharon Capeling-Alakija UNV Executive Coordinator in recognition of UNV efforts. "The UN Volunteers have shown a rare determination to carry on despite the dangers, difficulties and sadness emerging from the daily tragedies of the conflict. This is what makes volunteerism so powerful."
Paying a tribute to Palestinian-based UN Volunteers, Timothy Rothermel, Special Representative of the UNDP's Programme of Assistance to the Palestinian People, said "volunteerism will always be one of the most central pillars of Palestinian development...in light of the tremendous human resources that national UN Volunteers and Palestinians in the Diaspora have, and the capable staff we have managing the programme here, it is little wonder that we enjoy one of the most successful and recognized UNV programmes in the world".
The event was implemented with the help of organizations such as SHAREK, Palestinian Counseling Center, Palestinian Red Crescent Society, Near East Foundation (NEF), Middle East Non-violence and Democracy (MEND), Al-Quds University, Sabreen Association for Artistic Development, Heart to Heart, and Nakhleh Eshiber institute.
SHAREK, meaning to participate, is a community-based participation programme implemented by UNDP/PAPP which gives opportunities to young people between the ages 14 to 20 to identify, plan, evaluate and sustain their own development initiatives.
UNV has been active in the occupied Palestinian territories since 1994. More than 260 UN Volunteers have been directly working in sectors ranging from health care, information technology, medical services, human rights and promotion of democracy, education, humanitarian relief and post crisis management, to art and music. Today, over 40 UN Volunteers are currently serving working in the occupied Palestinian territories.

"She will be a special part of the day," an insider tells PEOPLE.
There isn't much that could top North's now famous spread in Vogue, where photographer Annie Leibovitz shot her cozying up to her famous parents, but a Parisian wedding fit for royalty sure is up there.
"Kim is such a good mom," a source close to Kardashian, 33, tells PEOPLE. "She's so doting and spends all the time she can with North. She's been dreaming of this wedding to Kanye and is so happy their daughter can share it with them."
And while she's not even a year old, the cherubic little girl has plenty of experience wearing angelic attire, so wedding white will be no problem for the tiny tot.
Although North won't quite be walking down the aisle, "Kim and Kanye, of course, will still have her be a part of their special day," says the source. "It wouldn't be complete without her."

ESPN would cost vastly more for sports fans, about $30 a month, if it was unbundled from the pay-TV package and sold separately only to those who wanted to watch it.
This would be five times the $6 a month that ESPN, already the most expensive cable channel, now costs as part of the big TV bundles offered by cablecasters such as Comcast. Many general-entertainment channels cost a few cents to 25 cents a month.
Those fans who would choose ESPN at the elevated price would be unlikely to purchase non-sports entertainment channels, leading to billions of dollars in lost revenue in the pay-TV industry.

D. K. Yeomans (JPL/Caltech )
Comets and asteroids have been receiving bad press of late. In two recent movies, they have been portrayed as Earth threatening villains. While comets and asteroids do smack into the Earth from time to time, it is also likely that they helped deliver the water and carbon-based molecules to the early Earth, thus providing the building blocks for the formation of life. Subsequent collisions may have punctuated life's evolutionary cycles allowing only the most adaptable species to evolve further. We mammals may owe our preeminent position atop the Earth's food chain to a collision some 65 million years ago that wiped out most of our competition, including the dinosaurs. Ironically, the same comets and asteroids that can most closely approach the Earth are also the most accessible in terms of exploiting their vast supplies of water and metals. In the next century, comets and asteroids could supply the raw materials necessary for colonizing the inner solar system. In addition to the utility of assessing their potential as future threats and resources, there are compelling scientific reasons for studying these primitive leftovers from the solar system formation process. Knowledge of their compositions and structures will provide important clues for understanding the conditions and chemical mix from which the planets formed some 4.6 billion years ago. The nature and chemical composition of these enigmatic objects should become clear as spacecraft missions closely study a dozen comets and asteroids in the next 13 years.

The Student Counseling Center offers a full range of counseling services at no charge to all UT students who meet eligibility requirements.
Why do students seek counseling services?
Student Counseling Center services are a confidential process designed to help you address your concerns, make better decisions, learn effective coping strategies, improve your personal skills and acquire a better awareness of your thoughts, feelings and actions. While in counseling, you may also examine beliefs and ways of thinking about the world, reflect on patterns of behavior, increase personal confidence, and become more aware of the needs of others. Most students find only a few sessions are needed to address their concerns. If longer term counseling is needed, your therapist will discuss this with you.
Accessing Services
Accessing any of our services begins with a walk-in session. Once you arrive at the Student Counseling Center, you will check in with the reception staff. You will then be asked to complete our initial paperwork (this takes most folks about 20 minutes). After you have completed the paperwork, you will see a therapist. He or she will will meet with you for about 20-30 minutes and will aid you with any immediate concerns and will help you decide what you need in order to address ongoing concerns. After this session, you will be scheduled with a therapist to be seen on a regular basis. If any of our other services are appropriate for you, the walk-in therapist will arrange them. If other University services or resources in the community are needed, the therapist will help identify them. If you wish, you may download the Walk-in Paperwork, fill it out, print it out, and bring it in with you to your walk-in session.
Walk-in hours: Monday through Friday, 10:00 am – 3:30 pm (Note: during the summer months, walk-in hours will be Monday through Friday, 1:00 pm – 3:30 pm.) A walkin can be scheduled outside of those hours for students who cannot come during that time by calling 974-2196)
During your walk-in session, your counselor may recommend further Student Counseling Center services. The counseling services provided by the Student Counseling Center are:
- Group counseling
- Individual counseling
- Couples counseling
- Stress Management Clinic
- Crisis management
Staff members provide a variety of services for students, faculty and staff. Presenting problems range from mild situational stresses to acute psychiatric conditions and chronic dysfunctions.
Services available to students include walk-in consultation, psychological assessment, crisis intervention, and individual, couples and group therapy. Services are provided on a time-limited basis with a 12-session limit per academic year for individual and couples services except in case of emergency or urgent care approved through the Center's Case Review Committee. Session limits do not apply to group therapy.
The Stress Management Clinic offers an array of services including mindfulness training, , biofeedback, and coping skills training.
Group Counseling
In group therapy, a small number of students (usually about 8) meet weekly with one or two group therapists. Groups are often the best way for people to receive counseling services. In groups, members have the opportunity to share concerns and listen to each other, give and receive feedback, offer support to one another, express feelings, and learn more about how they interact with others.
If you are referred for group counseling, here's what to expect: a staff member who is leading the group you've been referred to will contact you to schedule a group intake. A group intake is a meeting where you will meet with one or both of the group leaders and have a chance to get to know them and learn more about the group opportunity. They will help you identify 1-2 goals that you would like to work on in and will answer any questions you might have related to the group. After that, they will confirm your first group appointment. Group counseling sessions typically meet for about 90 minutes and usually meet once per week.
Our group opportunities include:
- Graduate student therapy groups
- Undergraduate/graduate (mixed) therapy groups
Individual Counseling
In individual counseling, students can work with a counselor to explore their concerns and work to better understand and resolve their difficulties.
If you are referred for individual counseling, here's what to expect: In your first meeting with your assigned therapist, you will have a chance to talk with them about your concerns and they will help you to identify 1-2 goals that you would like to work on in therapy and will collaborate with you to help you get the most out of your therapy experience. Individual counseling sessions typically last about 45 minutes and usually meet once per week.
Couples Counseling
The UT Student Counseling Center provides counseling to couples where at least one partner is a UT student who meets eligibility requirements. Couples can be dating long-term, short-term, lifetime-committed, or engaged. We provide counseling services to same-sex and heterosexual couples.
If you seek couples counseling, both partners will need to attend the initial walk-in session and both will need to complete the initial paperwork.
After the walk-in session, here's what to expect: you will be notified by e-mail that your first appointment with your assigned therapist has been scheduled. You will need to call the Student Counseling Center (865-974-2196) to confirm this appointment. In your first meeting with your assigned therapist, you will have a chance to talk with them about your concerns and they will help you to identify 1-2 goals that you would like to work on in therapy and will collaborate with you to help you get the most out of your therapy experience. Couples counseling sessions typically last about 45 minutes, meet once per week, and are usually take place with both partners in the room together. There are times where each partner might meet individually with the therapist, especially at the start of the therapy experience.
Stress Management Clinic
The Counseling Center offers a Stress Management Clinic, which is here to help you gain skills and resources to better manage your stress. We currently have a group called Feel Better Fast! This group will teach you valuable skills that will make a big difference quick. The Feel Better Fast group meets for meets once a week for 4 weeks.
Group times are:
- Monday – 4:00-5:00 p.m.
- Wednesday – 4:00 – 5:00 p.m.
- Thursday -3:00-4:00 p.m.
You can join a Feel Better Fast group at any time, and would meet with your group just once a week (either Tuesday, Wednesday, or Friday) for 4 weeks. If you are interested, call the Counseling Center at 865-974-2196 or come in to sign up for the group. It's easy, it's fast, and you'll feel better!
Crisis Management
If you are in a crisis or have an urgent need to be seen, you can be seen during our walk-in hours (Monday-Friday, 10:00am-3:30pm).
Here are some common reasons why a student might seek our Crisis Management services:
- If you are not feeling safe
- If someone close to you has died recently
- If you have a difficult decision to make in the next 2 – 3 days
- If you have been sexually assaulted within the past 72 hours
- If you have been experiencing a lot of stress for a long time and feel like you really must speak with someone today
Referrals to on-campus or off-campus services
Staff members at the Student Counseling Center are knowledgeable about resources available to students both on-campus and within the community. If we are not able to meet your needs or if you just would rather see someone outside of the Student Counseling Center, we can help by making an appropriate referral.

(Redirected from Autacoid)
Autacoids are biological factors that are primarily characterized by the effect they have upon smooth muscle. With respect to vascular smooth muscle, there are both vasoconstrictor and vasodilator autacoids.
Vasodilator autacoids can be released during periods of exercise. Their main effect is seen in the skin, allowing for heat loss.
The word Autacoids comes from the Greek "Autos" (self) and "Acos" (drug). These are local hormones, therefore have a paracrine effect. Some notable autacoids are: eicosanoids, angiotensin, neurotensin, NO (nitric oxide), kinins, histamine, serotonin, endothelins, etc.

Don't worry about this singer-songwriter becoming a producer's puppet, though. She willfully maintains her sense of whimsy, her quirky charms extending from her lyrics to her vocals and classically trained piano work.

Hugh Laurie may not be on "House" anymore, but he hasn't exactly disappeared. The British actor showed up on Monday's (Aug. 5) "The Colbert Report" to promote his new blues album and to say a bunch of dirty words with host Stephen Colbert.
Basic cable can say all sorts of dirty things that broadcast networks can't. This isn't exactly news. But now ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX are trying to get the old FCC rules changed so that they can talk about sex and stuff too.
Colbert does not approve. And he uses Hugh Laurie to make his point.
There is a glossary of terms that Viacom cable networks are allowed to say. I would list them here, but Zap2It is not on basic cable. Suffice to say that the terms range from the vaguely profane to the flat-out infantile.
That wasn't Laurie's entire reason for being on the show, of course. He was also there to promote a blues album, "Didn't It Rain?" It's his second album, the first one having been a bestseller.
A few extra highlights include:
- Hugh Laurie isn't a great whistler.
- "I will concede that I seem to be monumentally ill-suited to this task." – Laurie on singing the blues
- Starring in a major network drama is not the same as sharecropping, in case you didn't figure that out.
- Laurie has a sociological and historical view on why he should sing the blues.
- The actor stole some of the prescription pads from the "House" set when the show ended.
- English breakfasts are indeed excellent.

Stick with liquids until you can retain those. Water & broth. I'd try mashed banana and/or applesauce after that.
Also if you can get a hold of some oil of oregano, that is supposed to wipe bugs out really quickly.
So last Monday was my bday went out 4 dinner , everything great.
Got home & needed bathroom ASAP .
Woke up usual routine coffee gym but on way needed to stop go toilet very loose.
Done workout felt fine, few more loose stools.
Next 2 days same thing just done walking resting eating. But feel like crap, weak, cramps, tired , very loose watery stools, little feverish
So it's gotta be a stomach bug virus ,
I still have it today. Just had some lunch of butter ham & eggs and toilet straight away .
I know vomiting / diarhoia are signs or the body trying to get rid of big but should I continue eating or just break for 24-36 hours . Even plain rice, mash potato , plain chicken still upsets me.
Any advise would be great

I recently spoke with a doc about the old BRAT suggestion when you have a stomach bug, but she actually suggested eating what you feel like eating, but she also said bone broth is what she does.

Ugh, I had it this week. I managed to clear it in about 36 hours. I fasted and drank lots of peppermint tea.
Really, that sounds more like food poisoning from a bacteria. One thing you can do it take beneficial bacteria to re-balance the system since the diarrhea sweeps out everything, god and bad. If it won't in a reasonable time, or you get a high fever, or you have blood or severe pain you should see a physician.
Diarrhea can also be self-perpetuating (once you have it, it causes enough irritation and disruption to the balance to just keep going) so a coating product like pepto-bismal can be necessary (this was new information to me- I thought just waiting it out was the answer).
I am limited in what antibiotics I can take, so I've been taking bacteria pills and such for about a month trying to get straight from an isssue after trying to wait it out for two weeks. :-/

So felt ok and had some dinner.
Some veal liver & onions, handful of nuts and a banana.
Felt fine 2 hours after so had 2 tbsp of macademia butter an apple & some steamed mackerel.
Middle of the night woke up and toilet time , stomach cramping making noises.
Should I just not eat for 24-48 hours ?
See a doctor tomorrow as they could do stool test to see if its bacterial or viral?

I think it's different per person. My mom eats nothing for 24 hours and drink only tea after that it's gone. Me on the other hand need to eat through it. No matter how bad I feel I eat as much as I can.
Ok yesterday , sticked with some butternut squash soup , stomach immediately didnt like that and came back up .
So moved onto a chick broth , coconut water, plain chicken breast , basmati rice Cooke din chicken broth with ginger turmeric cinnamon,, 2 bananas.
Feel much better this morning still pretty tired , have a headache but my first bowel movement of the day was an improvement was actually formed although pretty soft and weird light colour.
Should I continue with this kind of food today . I've got some chicken livers and beef liver in fridge.
Would they be to heavy / strong just yet?
Just thinking eggs, more broth , rice again later

With its offense struggling the entire second half, the Tulane defense came up with a big turnover midway through the fourth quarter. Cornerback Josh Lumar intercepted SMU's Bo Levi Mitchell near midfield.
Given good field position, the Green Wave moved into field-goal range and Ross Thevenot kicked a 43-yarder to push Tulane's lead to 34-20. It was Thevenot's second field goal of the night.

April is National Volunteer Month, and one of Fayette County's favorite volunteers, for both young and old, is Bill Beard, also known as "Windy Willy," the lovable balloon animals clown.
What began as a desire to help others as he and his family had been helped became a ministry of sorts that has spanned 20 years, and Bill is enthusiastically entering into the 21st.
Pleasant weather and big bargains resulted in a large crowd in downtown Ramsey on Saturday for the Ramsey Lions Club's 50th annual Ramsey Community Sale.
In the first photo, a portion of the crowd on Saturday afternoon gathers around one of the many auctioneer trucks used for the sale in Lions Park. In the second photo, Skylar McElroy, 5, of Salem, tries out one of the lawn tractors up for sale. Chad Cooley, third photo was one of the auctioneers handling the sale of everything from tractors to tea sets.
With a draft in their hands, Vandalia officials were getting to work on a new budget on Tuesday afternoon.
"We must have a balanced budget," Mayor Rick Gottman said at Monday's council meeting, when he presented city aldermen with a draft of a budget for the fiscal year that begins on May 1.
Gottman said that he was to meet with the city's department heads on Tuesday afternoon to begin the process of fine-tuning the new budget.
Fayette County voters on Tuesday overwhelmingly rejected a 1-percent sales tax that would benefit school districts in the county.
Unofficial vote totals in the office of Fayette County Clerk and Recorder Terri D. Braun show that 58 percent of those going to the polls on Tuesday voted against the school tax. The unofficial vote total was 1,641-no and 1,166-yes.
Vandalia School District officials hoped to use funds generated by the sales tax to abate bonds and lower the property taxes of residents of the district.
Vandalia has four new aldermen as a result of the consolidated election, with two of the winners on Tuesday unseating incumbents.
In St. Elmo, all three winners – including two incumbents – were write-in candidates.
The winners in Vandalia included brothers Neil Clark and B. John Clark.
Neil Clark received 25 votes to lead a field of four Ward I candidates. Incumbent Bret Brosman was second with 20 votes, and Jason Paslay and Kenneth W. Hubler each garnered 19 votes.
It's not often that agriculture producers get to see the end-users of their labors. But that's exactly what Fayette County elevator owner Ken Cripe saw recently when he traveled to Central and South America on an Illinois Farm Bureau study tour.
In the two contested Vandalia City Council races, the incumbents were unseated.
In St. Elmo, all three write-in candidates won aldermanic seats.
In Vandalia, Neil F. Clark won the Ward I race with 24 votes. Incumbent Bret Brosman had 20 votes, and Jason Paslay and Ken Huber each had 19.
In the other contested race, for a four-year term in Ward IV, B. John Clark defeated Larry K. Cable, 158-149.
Sports cancellations for Monday and Tuesday.
•Tuesday's South Central/Patoka baseball game will be played in Kinmundy instead of Patoka.

Report: Apple iPad mini 2 and 5th-generation Apple iPad to launch in March
0. phoneArena 11 Jan 2013, 13:38 posted on
Topeka Capital Markets' Brian White says checks with his supply sources at CES suggest that the Apple iPad mini 2 and the 5th-generation Apple iPad will both launch in March only five months after the latest versions were announced; despite rumors that the Apple iPad mini would sport a Retina display for the sequel, there was no word on the resolution of the screen...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

They will put retina in mini v3. Funny how fast they are pumping iPads out I mean the 4th ipad just came out and now another one? Seems like the 4 was a waste and can see some angry apple product buyers if this holds true. So much for the one product a year they used to try and bash android about.
3. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
Over on Macrumors, the buzz is that retina will be on the Mini2. It makes sense for the Mini2 to get a retina display and a mild bump in CPU/GPU (to maybe the A5X).

In all reality, the OG Mini should have had the retina quality display. By the time the Mini gets a retina display, a lot of other tablets will already have equal to or better displays. Apple should have came to bat swinging for the fence with the Mini, not just trying to reach first base with it.
It's always been Apple's approach to hold features back in order to give people something to look forward to upgrade to. If they are going to release devices this quickly, why hold back anymore?

My colleague just got an iPad 2 brand new for dirt cheap. She gave it to me to put all the best apps & to update it to the most current iOS.
Playing with an iPad after using my rooted Asus Transformer Prime for more than a year & iOS is boring, dull, weak & nothing screams excitement at all. iOS 6.1 is so far back from Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean that it's LITERALLY scary.
Apple needs an OS overhaul not better devices. What is the point of a kicka$$ machine if your OS is BUSTED. It's like putting marble flooring in a mud hut.
Apple really, really needs to do something about iOS because even BlackBerry 10 OS from what I have seen in videos is more compelling.

Hey now, i will be DAMNED if I'm going to stand here and let you badmouth those of us with mud huts. My marble floor in my hut is AWESOME, only sucky thing is the tiles move around since the foundation is mud.
29. bigdawg23 (Posts: 449; Member since: 25 May 2011)
Use an iPad 4 and the preformance is very different. I looked at a Trasnformer Prime, but apps and entertainment online limitations swayed me. I own both a Gnote and iPhone 5. Yes Android has many great features, but stability and battery drain is only a few of the problems. My Gnote is rooted and rom'd. Battery life sucks majorly. App crashes are very common. I continue to play with many rom's in hoping the Note will get better.
30. darkkjedii (Posts: 21289; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
Y not keep it stock man. My note 2 is stock, and I love it. Best battery life on any phone I've had. I also own an ip5, and have to charge it a couple times a day...sweet phone tho
17. OHaZZaR (Posts: 131; Member since: 19 Aug 2011)
True, but apple was going for a super portable and super thin tablet, they lacked the technology required to make the iPad and come up with the enormous revenue they demand from selling it. They could've done it, but chose not to. Another thing to note, a lot of apple buyers will go for the iPad mini 2 and if it does have retina, then so will I. I love this thinness and lightness of the iPad mini, but the screen's really the only thing holding me back.
14. ckoch125 (Posts: 192; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Honestly I think the retina isn't anything special and if anything should have been on version 1. I bought a mini and if all they do is retina display and maybe little faster processor I really don't care since for what I do the mini is fine as it is. Maybe in 2 years when they really beef up specs ill upgrade my mini.
40. InspectorGadget80 (unregistered)
But the design are the same. How are apple consumers going to tell the difference?
42. metalpoet (unregistered)
OH MY F***ING GOD! Why the hell would anyone be so retarded at to even think of buying an iPad if its not only worthless the minute you turn it on but now its worthless in Apple's eyes 6 month later because they came out with another stupid f***ing tablet that does nothing different! holy jumping jesus people are retarded!
2. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
Apple is doing their absolute best to obsolete the previous generations of phones and iPads. I wonder how customers who purchased a Mini and the 4th gen iPad feel about being obsoleted before a year has passed?
15. ckoch125 (Posts: 192; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Look how mad those who bought an ipad 3 were when the 4 came out and now this shortly after? Apple is losing their luster and this isn't the way to gain it back.
22. opensourceftw (banned) (Posts: 148; Member since: 01 Jan 2013)
Let em keep on keeping on. They're losing customers and market share daily, so i for one approve of apples strategy to keep re-releasing the same damn thing every few months and passing it off as new.
36. SuperMaoriBro (Posts: 526; Member since: 23 Jun 2012)
I for one love constant refreshes, but im probably an exception to the norm. I know not everyone wants this but i wish galaxy s series was more like this. I like getting new gadgets. I love opening up a new box and turning on a new device for the 1st time. I hate only doing this once a year. Id be happy with a 6mnth cycle as long as it didnt mean manufacturers were holding back tech just so they could do incremental upgrades to squeeze money from consumers.
31. darkkjedii (Posts: 21289; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
Kinda mad, but progress us progress ya know
4. InspectorGadget80 (unregistered)
Still looks the same. Still dual core. And when people buy the 2nd ipad mini &a 5th ipad they still dont have a clue whats the difference as long they see a dumb fruit on the back
26. faisolbauuz (Posts: 121; Member since: 05 Jan 2013)
True i asked my friend who just recently upgraded hid ipad 3 to 4 and she doesnt know the diffrence except new ios6 and new lightning port
5. gwuhua1984 (Posts: 1237; Member since: 06 Mar 2012)
Almost feel like Apple is releasing a new product every month....
6. speckledapple (Posts: 892; Member since: 29 Sep 2011)
Looks like they have increased those production schedules. I think the competition is the reason.
7. Eonnaydra (Posts: 217; Member since: 23 Oct 2012)
The sources tell White that the fifth iteration of Apple's 9.7 inch tablet will be faster and lighter than the current model. It will have the same design as the third-generation Apple iPad but will feature the faster A6X processor and the new lightning port. -----I dont understand.Isnt A6X already on iPad 4?
20. howardbarrett (Posts: 45; Member since: 11 Jan 2013)
A new faster A6X
23. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10456; Member since: 14 May 2012)

11. nicholassss (Posts: 368; Member since: 10 May 2012)
I think they should really beef up the specs of the mini, get it on the same level as the ipad 5 but in a smaller package. If you look at the pricepoint thats what you're paying for, thats what you should get.
13. ryq24 (Posts: 722; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
competition is heating forcing apple to change it's schedule in releasing new products. not only is samsung their main headache but those small phone and tablet maker most people never heard of but are churning out cheaper phones and tablet.

"The sources tell White that the fifth iteration of Apple's 9.7 inch tablet will be faster and lighter than the current model. It will have the same design as the third-generation Apple iPad but will feature the faster A6X processor and the new lightning port."
... Is this a typo? Or is the 5th gen iPad REALLY going to be just an iPad 4 that's thinner and lighter?
24. BREvenson (Posts: 240; Member since: 17 May 2012)
Barely two months since the iPad mini and 4th iPad, and they're ALREADY coming out with their successors? At least Samsung gives about six months to a year in between their devices, with Apple's stuff, it's pretty much obsolete in a couple of weeks.
If this is Apple's way of strengthening their fan base, their fans must have plenty of disposable income to be throwing down hundreds of dollars for a barely-changing device at least once a year.

Well I can tell you I'm not very happy to hear of this. I have an iPad 4 and its really fast and the games run amazing on it BUT if its not going to be the top dog only after mere months
27. joey_sfb (Posts: 5742; Member since: 29 Mar 2012)
Even samsung that has new product every other month keep their flagship model on a 12 months refresh cycle.
32. papss (unregistered)
I'm seeing how it might be harder for developers to make great games in numbers like they do now. I'm no lover of IOS but my iPad is pretty fast when loading web pages or playing games.. I won't be buying this next one though

lol smh...this is crazy, i guess when i'm ready to upgrade there will be iPhone 7 available. i guess i'll get that along with the iPad 8 mini new hdS w/retina+
39. techloverNYC (Posts: 601; Member since: 20 Nov 2012)
at the rate apple is producing no one will be buying. There is only that much money to spend in a certain period
41. bubbadoes (Posts: 972; Member since: 03 May 2012)
I remember when the ipad 3 came out and only included a bumped up processor and a retina display. Was a hard choice for customers to really see the difference between the ipad 2 and 3 looking at the displays. For a difference in price of $100-a lot of ipad 2's are still being sold today because noone wants to pony up the extra $100 for retina. Then came out ipad 4 which included everthing on the 3 with a bumped up processor and a lighting connector for the ipad 4. Now a rumor is about a ipad 5. Point is--the ipad mini will follow the same cycle of the ipad---which will have you still buying the ipad mini 1 because it will be $100 dollars cheaper than the ipad mini 2 which will only include a retina display or a bumped up processor--but not both at one time--then their would be no need for a ipad mini 3, 4 or 5.. doesn't matter though--the fans will still be out there buying them because it's something new--when actually the mini is light years behind the nexus 7 in performance, processor, speed, and features.

Thomas Edison State College needs space to expand its nursing program, for which it proposes to build a school on the abandoned Glen Cairn Arms site in Trenton, which is near its other facilities. But the city's taxpayers, who have experienced a 30 percent property-tax hike in the past three years, do not want a prime downtown location to remain off the tax rolls.
While representatives of TESC say there are restrictions on how the state higher education bond funds can be used, some due diligence is called for. For example, could the college partner with a for-profit developer to build a bigger facility that could accommodate first-floor retail, restaurant or office space, as much space as the college requires (with some flexibility for future expansion) and a few upper floors of market-rate residential condos overlooking the river? Would such a partnership permit the college to use the bond funds it was counting on to demolish the existing structures and build the nursing school while the for-profit developer uses its financing to build the retail and residential components? Or would the prospect of a 25,000-square-foot nursing school tenant with a long-term lease be enough impetus for a for-profit developer to build the whole building? And if so, would the bond funding be available to fit out the school and maybe even pay the rent and utilities?
Related opinion:
• Trenton must seize opportunity to redevelop Glen Cairn Arms into nursing school
Another idea may be to lease the land to TESC for something like 50 years for $1/year for the first 10 years. Thereafter, the college would pay a sum each year equivalent to the property taxes on the development or a sum of the value of the city services it would use. And the lease could be renegotiated at set intervals. This way, TESC would own its building, but the city would receive a fair amount equivalent to the property's worth in tax revenue.
The legitimate objection to the current proposal stems from the fact that property taxes are the only real means by which municipalities in New Jersey raise funds to cover their budgets, and more than half of the properties in Trenton are already tax-exempt. This has to stop. And the governor is decreasing the amount of transitional aid the city receives each year.
Trenton has no option but to try to maximize what can be gleaned from the redevelopment of any properties, using any form of financing available. A group of citizens is trying to induce the city administration to do the responsible thing, and I hope the governor takes notice.

With approval of a county appropriation, the only question remaining for the Warren County Community College satellite expansion into Phillipsburg is whether or not the freeholder board will vote to bond for money to fund the project.
With a 3-2 vote on Feb. 24, by the college Board of School Estimates – composed of the freeholder board and two college trustees – the school will receive $2.1 million from the county, the same amount allocated in last year's county budget.
The freeholders would have to vote to borrow $7.3 million, half of which would come from the Chapter 12 state bond program. That money would be used to purchase and renovate the college's target building, 445 Marshall Street in Phillipsburg.
According to Freeholder Director Rick Gardner, the only freeholder to vote "yes" on the appropriation, that vote will likely take place at the board's next meeting on March 10. Following the Feb. 24 meeting, a second freeholder indicated support for the project, which would provide the votes needed to authorize the bond.
Gardner expressed his belief in the project, noting that he has looked at it quite a bit and feels comfortable with it going forward.
"I think this proposal, to me, seems sound, seems reasonable, and the risk to the county taxpayer is virtually nothing," Gardner said.
Freeholders Everett Chamberlain and Angelo Accetturo, who voted against the appropriation because it contained a provision to make a recommendation that the freeholders approve the bond, expressed concern over rushing into the borrowing.
"One thing I don't like is being pressured to make decisions," Chamberlain said. "I know there is some urgency, but I still think we have time."
Accetturo has since come out in support of the college's effort, calling it "a feasible and necessary project," according to an Express-Times article published Saturday, Feb. 27.
College President Will Austin said the sense of urgency stems from the fact that the Chapter 12 funding will only last until June 30 of this year, when the state financial year comes to a close. If Warren County does not bond for the funds by that time, they will be distributed to another county college.
"The only thing that will happen if this money is not expended by Warren is that Warren County residents will pay to build facilities in other counties," Austin said during a presentation to the freeholder board.
Austin also said that the college has agreed to certain provisions that will allow them to pursue the project without incurring additional costs for taxpayers.
"We have come up with a contract that says we will assume all costs for bonding, all the county's share of the debt service as well as any debt service obligations not met by the state of New Jersey, if indeed that were to happen," Austin said.
The agreement allows that if the freeholders vote to borrow the money, the county can then take part of the college's $2.1 million allocation to pay back the state. Austin said the college is confident that revenues from the new campus would easily cover the difference.
445 Marshall Street is a 51,000 square foot building that currently houses offices for the Phillipsburg Board of Education, The Express-Times and Warren Hospital.
Following the purchase and renovation of the building, the Board of Education and The Express-Times would remain there as tenants and pay rent, while Warren Hospital would move its facilities down Route 22 into the Hillcrest Professional Plaza.
According to Austin, the Board of Education currently occupies 18,665 square feet of space in the building – which they would keep plus a 5,204 square foot addition – and The Express-Times takes up 1,282 square feet.
Phillipsburg School District Superintendent Mark Miller expressed his interest in having the college move in, especially with the benefits it would have for Phillipsburg residents interested in continuing their education.
"We have very low-income areas, and our kids and transportation to the college right now is a difficult situation for us," he said. "By having a satellite campus right in Phillipsburg they could very easily just walk there."
Austin said the college would then create a 7,510 square foot business incubator, which would offer low-cost office space as well as the opportunity to network with the college for entrepreneurs and small business owners.
"What we have planned for is a site that will generate jobs," Austin said. "It will generate jobs from the day we purchase the facility, it will generate jobs in the renovation of the facility and its entire purpose after development is job generation from the college standpoint."
With the 15,557 square feet of usable space left, the college will create classroom space, offices and labs for use in continuing education.
Lopatcong resident Jason Sarnoski, who attended the Feb. 24 meeting, said he was initially wary of the project but that he had "become a convert to the idea," although he did express a desire for the idea to have been put to a taxpayer vote in the first place.
"I was here when it was originally brought up, and I was a little skeptical about the plan, the place and the impact on the taxpayer," Sarnoski said. "But ultimately, after researching and being here tonight, I think it's the right thing to do. I just wish we could have gone to the voters about it, but I know right now it's too late for that."

LEWISTOWN - It was a changing of the guard of sorts on Thursday for the Mifflin County School District Board of Directors.
New faces were sworn into office and others were elected to leadership positions during the board's annual reorganization meeting. Elected as president for 2014 was Mary Lou Sigler, who was the only board member nominated for the top position and was elected unanimously by a show of hands. Elected vice-president was AnneMarie Swineford, who also was the only member nominated.
Prior to the election, four new members and one returning member were sworn into office by Dr. Ruth Armstrong, who was elected to serve as temporary president to conduct the reorganization. New members joining the board included Robert Hammond, John Knepp, Neil Russler and Richard Smeltz. Returning for another four year term was Kristen Sharp. All of the above will serve four year terms with the exception of Russler, whose term is for two years.
Also during the reorganization, the board agreed to continue to hold its workshops and voting meetings on the third and fourth Thursdays of each month, respectively, at 7:30 p.m. at the school district administration building. The exceptions to that schedule will be November and December, when those meetings will take place on the first and third Thursdays to accommodate the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
Also during the reorganization, the board:
Re-elected Swineford to be the board's liaison to the Pennsylvania School Boards Association.
Fact Box
Thoughts from the superintendent
After welcoming the school board's new members, Superintendent Jim Estep took a few minutes to outline his vision for the district moving forward:
"Everything we do is based on the premise of what's best for the kids."
"A system that continually, as it already does, seeks ways to provide the best service and control costs."
"With regard to budgeting, look more at long-term issues, especially in the collective bargaining process with the district's numerous unions."
Estep also said the district needs:
"... a system that is flexible enough to recognize that every child's needs can't be met strictly by brick and mortar buildings alone."
"... (to) develop a system where professional development is valued and not degraded."
"... (to) develop instruction where a vast majority of children are reading at grade level through the third grade. We're only as strong as our elementary program."
"... (to) develop a system that acknowledges social-economic environments that are challenging but should not matter where a child comes from. There's no excuse to not expect more from ourselves and the kids."
"... (to) develop a system that supports music and the arts even though those programs are usually the first to be cut during budget crises. Our boards have been supportive enough to keep them going and we believe having arts and music improves the chances for students' successes in core instructional areas."
"... (to) develop a system that supports adequate elective offerings for secondary students."
"... (to) develop a system that strives to customize and personalize every child's learning experience."
"... (to) develop a system that has truly adequate personnel, even if it means more restructuring and adding staff."
Elected Smeltz, Knepp, Beth Laughlin and Sharp to the Joint Operating Committee of the Mifflin-Juniata Career and Technology Center. Armstrong was elected as an alternate to the committee.
"I would like to welcome our four new members to the task ahead in the coming years," Superintendent James Estep said. "Also, welcome back to Kristen. The administrative team looks forward to working with you. If at any point, you would like to come in with questions on budgeting or how the process works, Sean (Daubert) and I will make ourselves available. It's an increasingly challenging task ahead of us. And it continually becomes more complex due to many factors beyond our control."
During a brief workshop session following the board meeting, the board went over the following items up for consideration at the board's Dec. 19 voting meeting:
The hiring of Krystal Fultz as a full time paraprofessional at Lewistown Elementary School effective Nov. 25.
Consideration of a fee waiver for use of East Derry Elementary School's cafeteria for a benefit auction for a family who recently lost their home and belongings to a fire. Estep said the fee would be approximately $100.
The addition to Michelle Groce to the cafeteria substitute list.
The resignation of Andrea Kuykendall from a cafeteria position at the junior high school.
The retirement of Marcia Leister, learning support teacher at Indian Valley Elementary School, effective at the end of the current school year.
The deletion of Nancy Norton from the substitute teacher list.

Des Moines police are searching for suspects in an armed robbery on the Drake University campus.
The university said a student was robbed at gunpoint early Sunday morning near the intersection of 29th Street and University Avenue.
The student wasn't injured and authorities said there's no threat to the campus.
