PITTSBURGH - Duquesne University head men's basketball coach Jim Ferry announced today that guard Tra'Vaughn White (Kansas City, Kan./Washington (Independence CC) has requested and been granted a release from his scholarship, clearing his way to transfer.

A hearing is under way in Birmingham's federal court today as the last three defendants convicted in the Jefferson County $3 billion sewer corruption prosecution await sentencing.
Prosecutors were presenting evidence from FBI agent Tom Mayhall this morning before U.S. District Judge David Proctor to prove how much money Roland Pugh Construction gained from bribes paid to Jefferson County sewer officials. Among the officials were former Commissioner Chris McNair and former environmental director Jack Swann.
Attorneys for Pugh Construction were to cross-examine Mayhall later today.
Following the evidentiary hearing, Proctor is expected to sentence the company, former Pugh executive Eddie Yessick and Clarence Barber, who was the county's construction and maintenance supervisor.
The corruption covered 1996 through 2003, most of the time the county has been under a federal court mandate to rebuild, repair and enlarge its sewer system.

Orlando Magic Cheerleader Falls On Head During Cheer [VIDEO]

E. E. Cummings
Current Home
e.e. cummings (1894-1962) remains one of America's most popular poets. Listeners are enchanted by his witty originality and technical virtuosity, but his gifts were always in serve to his desire to portray the tumultuous upheavals of ordinary life, the sensuous appeals of love, and the limits of rational thought. His quickening lyrical impulse was matched by an exuberant playfulness--language sent spinning against its own gravity--that drew attention to the vitality of the spontaneous individual. He could be as satirical as he was amorous, as precise as he was flighty, as accessible as he was C

PHILADELPHIA District Attorney Seth Williams blasted the Archdiocese of Philadelphia on Tuesday for helping Msgr. William J. Lynn post bail after an appeals court overturned his conviction for crimes related to sex abuse in the church.
Lynn needed to post 10 percent of the $250,000 bail set by Common Pleas Court Judge M. Teresa Sarmina.
Williams said the archdiocese posted the $25,000. The archdiocese, through a spokesman, would only confirm that it assisted with Lynn's bail. The state Department of Corrections website showed that Lynn remained in custody.

DETROIT, MI- Ford Motor Co. and the United Auto Workers are partnering with the American Football Coaches Association for a new program aimed at keeping children safe and finding them quicker if something was to happen.
The new program, which officials announced today at Ford Field in Detroit, includes distributing inkless fingerprint identification kits to at least 225,000 families in communities the Dearborn-based automaker and UAW has hourly employees, including 50,000 kits for Detroit Public Schools.
"One of our mottos is we want to make a better community, and our DNA is going out and helping people," said Marty Mulloy, Ford vice president for labor affairs, during a media event announcing the new program today at Ford Field in Detroit. "This is a great opportunity to partner with two great organizations."
The kits, which are kept with the child's family, provide an easy way for families to create a record of their children's fingerprints and other identifying information for quick reference if ever needed by law enforcement. They will be offered for free to all UAW-Ford employees at its plants and parts distribution centers.
For every kit purchased by Ford-UAW for plant employees, the AFCA's "National Child Identification Program," will also donate a kit. The matching kits will be distributed to families in Ford communities through local schools, churches and law enforcement organizations.
"The safety of our members in plants across the country is of critical importance to both the UAW and Ford," said UAW-Ford vice president Jimmy Settles. "That concern extends to their families as well."
Each year, according to AFCA officials, more than 450,000 children run away and 300,000 more are abducted by family members.
The AFCA's "National Child Identification Program" was started in 1997 with the goal of creating fingerprint records of 20 million children. Today, the program has handed out more than 32 million ID kits, which cost about $4.
Kenny Hansmire, National Child Identification Program executive director, said officials hope that parents never need to use the kits, but they're a great asset to have if their child ever does go missing.
"This is a huge day for the National Child ID program," he said during the event. "These ID kits are very, very important."
The new partnership was initially brought to Settles' attention after Ford's Chicago Plant implemented the program independently at an employee event during the summer.
Detroit resident Angel Mayfield today ceremoniously received the first kit from the UAW, Ford and AFCA with her children – Duane, 12, and D'Angelo, 9.
"I just think this is a very great idea," she told MLive following the event, adding it could significantly help find law enforcement find children in during a "crucial time."
Mayfield received the kit from University of Michigan football head coach Brady Hoke, who attended the event with tight end Devin Funchess and linebacker James Ross III – both from the Detroit-area.
Other officials to attend the event on Tuesday included Detroit Public Schools Emergency Manager Jack Martin; former U of M football head coach Lloyd Carr, who was on the AFCA Board when the National Child Identification Program started; and officials from some the state's other top football universities, including Michigan State University and Wayne State University.

6:25 a.m. — Side streets are slick in Pleasant Hill, but main thoroughfares are mostly wet and traffic is flowing at normal speeds this morning, according to Pleasant Hill police.
Pleasant Hill road crews spent most of Sunday night and early Monday morning treating the main streets with salt and sand, Officer Jeremy Bassett said.
"They actually aren't too bad. I don't see us having any serious issues," Bassett said. "With secondary roads, you should probably use caution on those."
With little overnight accumulation, no snow ordinance is in effect.

3. Please do a VLOOKUP in excel, then you can find the differences
Also remember the following

The latest news is good. As of yesterday, Max Alleger reports that 40 prairie chickens (hens and chicks) have successfully made the move from Kansas to Missouri, with a little help from the Conservation crew of trappers and transporters. The crew will keep working until they reach their goal of moving 50 birds to join the males brought to Missouri last spring. Although some of the males moved then have since left for greener prairie (or at least moved off the prairie we had hoped they'd settle on), eight remain there.
According to Max, "The rest remains up to the birds, I suppose. Each adult translocated was fitted with a new transmitter so that habitat use preferences can be monitored for a full year."
Someone asked in response to my post last week why they're trying this two-phase approach. Max told me the reason is basically that females are more likely to stay put when moved to a booming ground (spring mating ground) where the males already have established themselves. So the males were brought to Missouri in phase 1 in hopes they'd settle in. Some did it seems. Also, the biologists wanted to move the females with their chicks because the female birds would be more likely to stay with them when they were released on the new grounds. Max said it has worked elsewhere.
Working with nature isn't easy. And the future of prairie chickens in Missouri isn't clear. But it's exciting to see people and the process in action as they try to keep a rich mix of life thriving out there.

It's official: Governor Pat Quinn has signed a proclamation to recognize this month — February 2013 — as Gum Disease Awareness Month in Illinois.
Gum disease is one of the most common diseases in the United States – more prevalent than cancer, heart disease and arthritis. The consequences can be serious, but the condition can be treated in every patient. Treatment options range from regular check-ups to conventional gum surgery or laser surgery.
Mounting university research links gum disease to heart disease, diabetes, stroke, pre-term and still births and certain cancers. Over 85 percent of Americans adults have some degree of gum disease, but fewer than half are diagnosed. Often symptoms of gum disease are ignored until the disease is in advanced stages, when tooth loss is common.
Illinois has adopted Gum Disease Awareness Month in order to educate residents about widespread health threat of gum disease and the importance of prevention and treatment. With a key message of encouragement to take an active role in preventing gum disease, recognizing risk factors, getting diagnosed and seeking treatment, the initiative is lead by the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry, a non-profit educational and research center dedicated to providing evidence-based clinical training in laser dentistry therapies.

Since the inception of the BCS in 1998 only two schools have been to more BCS bowl games than the Florida Gators. With five wins in seven appearances, Florida is also tied for the most BCS bowl wins in college football. (USC and Ohio State have more BCS bowl wins, but have both vacated a win due to NCAA sanctions.)
With the 2013 Sugar Bowl less than two weeks away, let's take a trip down memory lane and relive the Florida Gators best BCS bowl victories.

Only one in five students who enrolls in a for-profit college graduates within six years, and they're likely to rack up far more debt than students at private and public colleges, according to a recent study.
For-profit colleges — such as the University of Phoenix, DeVry University and ITT Tech — have proliferated in the last decade, with total enrollment growing 10 times faster than at all other colleges and universities, according to a report released last week by the Education Trust.
Just 22 percent of students who enroll in bachelor's degree programs at these colleges, however, graduate within six years, compared to rates of 55 and 65 percent, respectively, at public and private institutions, the study found.
"There's no escaping the numbers," said Jose Cruz, a vice president for the Education Trust, a nonprofit in Washington, D.C. "They're very successful in recruiting students, but not nearly as successful in graduating them."
Moreover, the median debt load for graduates at for-profit colleges is $31,190 — nearly twice the amount at private colleges, and four times the amount at public colleges. This is because for-profits charge steep tuitions, on par with private colleges, but fail to offer students sufficient financial aid or post-graduation job prospects, the report said.
The study, which analyzed 2008 data from the U.S. Department of Education, concluded that more government oversight is needed in the for-profit college industry.
In October, the federal government issued new regulations to govern the for-profit college sector, following growing public outcry over what some called misleading practices.
In August, a federal probe into 15 for-profit colleges found examples at every single school of officials lying or misrepresenting their programs.
"The point isn't about how much profit they're making. It's about accountability," Cruz said yesterday.
In response, the Association of Private Sector Colleges and Universities, an umbrella group that represents many for-profit colleges across the country, said the report is unfair because it tries to make an "apples to apples" comparison even though for-profit colleges tend to accept higher-risk students.
For-profit colleges yield much lower graduation rates than public or private colleges, according to a study by the Education Trust. Here are the six-year graduation rates at the 10 for-profit colleges with the largest entering classes in 2008:
College / Total enrollment / Graduation rate
1. University of Phoenix / 238,326 / 9%
2. DeVry University / 24,291 / 31%
3. The Art Institute / 31,130 / 41%
4. Berkeley College / 5,889 / 35%
5. Sullivan University / 2,862 / 15%
6. Westwood College / 6,644 / 27%
7. Int'l Academy of Design and Technology / 5,322 / 16%
8. School of Visual Arts / 3,351 / 67%
9. Illinois Institute of Art / 3,319 / 44%
10. ITT Tech / 17,375 / 66%
Note: Entering class sizes were based on the number of full-time, first-time, bachelor's degree students.

As Isaac was swamping the Gulf Coast last week, we talked about hurricane preparedness and insurance coverage.
Now, it's time to talk about storm cleanup.
Even when flooding is limited, say, to a basement, there are still precautions to be taken and special damage remedies to be considered.
Recommended cleanup procedures have changed little over the years, although the emphasis has shifted to the effects of prolonged contact with floodwater.
For example, the Environmental Protection Agency currently stresses that failure to remove contaminated materials and reduce moisture and humidity can present serious long-term health risks.
Floodwaters drag sewage and chemicals along with them, and that means that standing water and wet materials are a breeding ground for microorganisms, such as viruses, bacteria, and mold, that can cause disease, trigger allergic reactions, and continue to damage materials long after the flood.

Yesterday, on my way home, I took a slight detour and poked my nose into Oriental Pastry and Grocery on Atlantic Ave. in Brooklyn, just for fun. It smells wonderful in there, with all the spices and olives and teas and coffees. After purchasing a half pound of their delicious, almost fluffy Syrian pistachio halvah that my gut doesn't need right now, I turned around to leave and saw out of the corner of my eye, right next to the vats of olives and pickles in brine, something unusual. Something wonderful. Fresh -- FRESH! -- garbanzo beans (a.k.a. chickpeas), still in their papery pods.
The specimens at Oriental Pastry and Grocery ranged from medium green (underripe) to pale yellow (perfect), but I was in a hurry and too lazy to pick through them. So I scooped up a few handfuls, paid, and scurried home as fast as I could to cook these things up.
Fresh garbanzo beans are not uncommon in farmers' markets and supermarkets on the West Coast, especially in areas with large Latino communities, but I've actually never once seen them on the East Coast. They taste a little bit like edamame or, some people say, like green peas. Most preparations I've seen call for either eating them raw or steamed (i.e. in a salad or with pasta), roughly grinding them up for falafel or green hummus, or pan roasting them, pods on. But after popping a few of these raw, it was clear that the fresh, mild green flavor of fresh garbanzo would go wonderfully with rich, creamy butter -- and lots of it.
Butter Sauteed Fresh Garbanzos
- 1/2 pound fresh garbanzo beans, shelled
- 4 tbs sweet butter
- 1/4 cup broth
- 1/2 tsp grated lemon peel
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- salt and black pepper to taste
In a saucepan large enough to hold all the garbanzos in a single layer, melt butter and add garbanzos.
Sautee beans over medium-low flame, stirring occasionally, until garbanzos are spotted with brown.
Add broth, turn up flame to medium. When almost all of the broth has cooked off, remove from heat, add lemon juice, lemon peel, salt and pepper to taste.
Serve as a side dish or toss with pasta. We had ours with soft polenta, glazed lamb chop and green salad, topped with a sprinkling of chives and parsley: a perfect, simple springtime meal.

Air Force combat photographer Mike Buytas was embedded with an Army unit outside of Kabul in 2002, taking pictures as American soldiers trained Afghan troops. At the same time, the World Cup was being played in Japan and South Korea.
World Cup 2014
WHERE: Brazil
WHEN: June 12-July 13
Monday vs. Ghana, 6 p.m.
June 22 vs. Portugal, 6 p.m.
June 26 vs. Germany, noon
What's a dedicated soccer fan to do?
Buytas found himself one night huddled around a radio with Afghans and members of the French Foreign Legion, listening to a broadcast of a match between France and Senegal.
"The Afghani guys would translate the announcers into French, and the French guys translated it into English," Buytas recalled. "It was a like a game of telephone. After a while you could learn the key phrases, you could hear the excitement in the announcers' voices. But it was definitely surreal."
As the World Cup begins Thursday in Brazil, Buytas and his fellow soccer enthusiasts in Charleston won't have to take such drastic measures to follow the world's biggest sporting event. With a total of 64 matches broadcast on ABC, ESPN and ESPN2, a burgeoning soccer culture in Charleston is preparing to enjoy every moment of the month-long event.
"It's a month-long party, that's for sure," said Buytas, 44, who is now retired from the Air Force and has made Charleston his home since 2001. "It's the World Series, the Super Bowl, the Stanley Cup all wrapped up into one. All the best athletes from around the world coming together to perform for a month in a huge setting. It's easy to get wrapped up and lose your mind for about a month."
An epicenter of mind-losing is sure to be Madra Rua Irish Pub on East Montague Avenue in the Park Circle area of North Charleston. An unforgettable scene took place there in 2010, when Landon Donovan's goal in extra time gave the U.S. a 1-0 victory over Algeria.
"That was one of the best experiences I've ever had watching soccer," said Jason Weber, managing partner of Madra Rua. "The place just exploded when Donovan scored. I'll never forget it."
Madra Rua and other like-minded establishments (Local 616, Prohibition, Molly Darcy's, My Father's Moustache, Three Lions Club at Blackbaud Stadium, Madra Rua in Summerville, Mueller's Pub and The Alley) are laying in supplies for what they expect will be a month-long siege of World Cup revelry. The Charleston Battery will hold viewing parties at Three Lions for all U.S. games.
"This will be huge to our bottom line," said Weber, whose Madra Rua Irish Pub was voted the best bar in South Carolina in which to watch the World Cup.
"Last time, in 2010, our heat sensors went off, there so many people in the place," Weber said. "We were at max capacity in the middle of June, and our AC just couldn't keep up."
Buytas said Charleston soccer culture has come a long way since he moved here in 2001, and he is one important reason. Buytas serves as president of The Regiment, the official supporters club of the Charleston Battery, as well as the president of the Charleston chapter of the American Outlaws, supporters of the U.S. Men's National Team.
"It's a lot more organized now," he said. "We have a lot more groups, our friendly little rivalries like the Clemson-South Carolina rivalry in college football. There's a big sense of community among the fans, and we try to support the businesses that help us out."
In addition to The Regiment and the American Outlaws, there is Charsenal, a fan club for Arsenal FC in the English Premier League, and the Official Liverpool Supporters Club of South Carolina, which cheers on the Reds in the Premier League.
Travis Poole, who helped start Charsenal in 2011, remembers trying to find a corner table at a local pub where he could try to persuade a bartender to find a Premier League game on satellite. Now, his group boasts some 200 members and 30 to 50 "Gooners" will show up for a Saturday morning game at My Father's Moustache in Mount Pleasant. "I would say our city is more soccer-centric than most in South Carolina," said Stan Sulkowski, another Charsenal member. "It is not uncommon to see Arsenal shirts throughout the city."
Another factor in pulling together Charleston's soccer community has been Dan Conover's website (chssoccer.net), which covers everything from the Battery to college and youth soccer and fan clubs in the Lowcountry.
John Lotterhaus was part of a group of American Outlaws who traveled to Jacksonville last week to watch the U.S. team's final send-off match, a 2-1 win over Nigeria. He'll be glued to the TV for the next month.
"At the game, we sang the National Anthem loud and proud and cheered on our boys," Lotterhaus said. "It's always better to watch with a group of people. You are able to chant, to express your love of the game with other fans. There's nothing like it."
Arsenal fan Dan Woppert reacts to a non-call as fans watch their team in the FA Cup final at My Fathers Moustache.×

More than £2,200 was raised by the annual summer fair at St Mary Magdalene Catholic Primary School at the weekend.
The day was "a huge success" and was enjoyed immensely by all who attended.
The P.T.A worked extremely hard to arrange all of the events, games and stalls. There were crafters selling their homemade items, a multicultural food area providing traditional dishes from around the world including the Philippines and Sri-Lanka, and Luigi from Di Paolo's restaurant came with his homemade ice-cream and sold it from a cart.
The school was supported by businesses in the area which donated various raffle prizes. Among the traditional fair stalls there was a Dual Inflatable Assault course and a huge array of performing arts clubs which included Lacey Theatre Arts, 1066 Gymnastics, Mad Fish performing Arts, SAMA Karate and some very talented pupils from St Richards Catholic College. The fair ended with children from St Mary Magdalene Catholic Primary School singing their version of "Let it Go" from the Movie Frozen.

CHICOPEE – Each election season, citizens take sides and line up behind their favorites.
David G. Barsalou is no different.
His candidate is Pete Rose.
That's right, the man who holds baseball's all-time record for hits, as well as a place of infamy for being kicked out of the sport in 1989.
Retired as a player at the time he was banned, Rose was found to have gambled on baseball while with the Cincinnati Reds, a team he managed in his post-playing days.
It took him 15 years before he finally admitted his guilt in 2004. Even after doing so, he remains barred entirely from baseball and thus, left off the hall-of-fame ballot.
If Rose's name is ever allowed on the ballot, he would need approval by 75 percent of the hall's 65-member Veterans Committee.
Barsalou thinks Rose's day of honor is long overdue. It is this belief that drives his artsy, grassroots campaign.
"I'm a politician and an artist, and I have been looking for a way to combine the two," says Barsalou, a three-term Ward 2 representative on Chicopee's School Committee.
Barsalou is so passionate about his candidate, in fact, that he's waging an advertising campaign on Rose's behalf.
He's placed red-and-white "Elect Pete Rose" placard signs around Chicopee. He paid $600 to publish an advertisement in the Sunday Republican on Sept. 12 and is continuing that advertising effort online at MassLive.com.
The newspaper ad ran one day after Rose participated in a 25th-anniversary celebration of his hit record in Cincinnati, where he had his greatest fame.
Playing for the Reds on Sept. 11, 1985, Rose broke Ty Cobb's record of 4,191 hits, which had stood since 1928.
Barsalou's also making his case on behalf of the embattled Rose on his Facebook page.
Nationwide, Rose has millions of supporters. Barsalou, 57, takes a back seat to none.
In the tradition of the hallowed media phrase, "all news is local," he is bringing Rose's case to the streets of his hometown, and to wherever his art can be seen.
"I've never spoken to Pete Rose. I'd love to have the chance," he says. In the meantime, Barsalou is campaigning from afar.
Barsalou's advocacy dates back to 1994, when he used Rose's baseball greatness as an outlet for his artistic talent. That year, Barsalou displayed 4,256 images of Rose at Holyoke Community College. The number represents Rose's final career hit total.
Gambling on baseball is such a taboo that the ban remains in effect.
Yet Rose, a member of Cincinnati's famed "Big Red Machine" – the powerhouse that edged the Boston Red Sox in a memorable, seven-game 1975 World Series – has never really left the news.
When Rose, now 69, appeared at the 25th-year celebration of his hit record, he was greeted by a tumultuous ovation.
Barsalou, a three-term School Committee member, is more steadfast in support than ever.
"What does a lifetime ban mean? Does it mean eternity, even after he dies?" Barsalou said.
Technically, the ban is termed "permanent ineligibility." Whatever the words, Barsalou thinks enough is enough.
"For some reason, they don't want to cut the guy any slack," he said.
Barsalou believes the fallen star is misunderstood.
"My wife, who has since passed away, educated me, was a social worker," Barsalou said. "She was the one who enlightened me that gambling, like alcohol or drug abuse, is an addiction."
According to Barsalou, that explains why it took Rose so long to confess.
"He was in denial," he said.
Beyond that, the artist and politician said Rose's transgressions pale when compared to much of what occurs in sports today.
"I could understand the opposition to him in 1994, when I did the (Holyoke Community College) exhibit," said Barsalou, who has also done artwork involving other baseball greats such as Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth and Rabbit Maranville, Springfield's member of the Hall of Fame from the 1914 World Series champion Boston Braves.
"But today, you could literally have a Hall of Shame. Steroids, domestic violence, dogfighting (with football player Michael Vick) ... I don't hear people saying O.J. Simpson should be taken out of the Football Hall of Fame."
For Rose to the reach hall of fame at Cooperstown, N.Y., baseball commissioner Bud Selig would have to lift a ban that not only keeps him off the ballot, but bars him from working in baseball.
Then, Rose would need approval from the Veterans Committee, which is made up of former players and includes many of Rose's past teammates and opponents.
Barsalou says his own friends take various views about the campaign for Rose's Hall-of-Fame election. He's enlisting public awareness and support, he said, even though Rose's election would not involve a public vote.
"Some (friends) are neutral, some support it," he said. "My view is conceptual. When you make art, it doesn't matter if people like it. It matters that you get it out there."
Barsalou's 1994 art exhibit, which covered 700 square feet, drew national attention when Sports Illustrated contacted him. "I thought it was one of my friends (playing a prank)," he recalled.
The magazine treated it a bit tongue-and-cheek, reporting it in their feature entitled, "This Week's Sign That the Apocalypse is Upon Us."
Sixteen years later, though, Barsalou is convinced the issue is being revived at an opportune time.
The political election season, the anniversary of Rose's record, and the rise of the Reds – who are playoff-bound after years of struggle – make Rose's case a topic for today, not yesteryear.
"I can't believe it's been 16 years (since the exhibit), and he's still not in the Hall of Fame," Barsalou said. "But anything is possible. It's starting to spread and grow."

How could I have forgotten Berezhnaya/Sikharulidze? Thanks for adding them to the list.
I remember once when I was riding a taxi through a city. I got to chatting with the cabbie. It turned out he was originally from Yemen. He said that his father was a guest worker in Saudi Arabia for ten years and would never have qualified for Saudi citizenship. (Keep in mind that both Yemen and Saudi Arabia use the same language and have the same majority religion and similar cultures.) But after seven years in the U.S., this cabbie was able to become an American citizen. He married an American and brought up his children here. I'm glad we're able to have such a setup in this country. I understand Japan's inability to welcome all and sundry to their tiny islands with so little arable land, but it's too bad they can't find some way to allow double citizenship. After all, it wouldn't affect a huge number of people. It's not as if the world would descend on them or anything.
I have just looked at the World Bank statistics for the past decade, and they say that the population in Japan has roughly stayed steady at around 127million (+/-1million) for the past 15 years. So, as yet, there is no de-population.
The problem is not that the population is decreasing; the problem is make-up of the population. Usually, a countrys population pyramid starts off wide at the bottom (lots of youngsters) and gradually gets narrower as people get older to a point at the top (not so many elderly). Japan was like this in 1950.
Population Pyramids for Japan (source UN): http://esa.un.org/unpd/wpp/populatio..._abs/Japan.png
In 2010, the pyramid for Japan does not follow this pattern until you reach the over 60s. Between 65 and 35, the population varies between 4 and 5 million for each gender in each age group. And below 35, it gradually decreases down to about 3 million for each gender in the 0-5 age group.
Admittedly, it was about 8 years ago that I finished school, but the population pyramid for 2010 is similar to the 2000 population pyramid we were studying.
So, I agree with you that the aging population is going to cause problems as, if the population continues to change the way they expect, there will be far more older people depending on support, and far less people of working age paying taxes to fund the support.
But that still does not alter the point that I was making. Physically, Japan is a group of mountainous islands where there is a limited amount of space that can actually be utilised for habitation or cultivation. The habitable areas are already densely populated. So, if the population is staying steady (as it has for about 15 years), the Japanese government are hardly going to want an influx of immigrants putting extra pressure on the limited resources. Hence, they are continuing the policy of limiting who can have Japanese citizenship for now.
However, if the population changes in the way that is expected, this approach cannot continue forever. Once the population starts falling, and there are less people of working age to support those that are not economically active (i.e. the old and young), then Japan will have to have a re-think and encourage immigration. And, one way of doing this is relaxing the rules on who can have Japanese citizenship a bit.
So, until we get to that time, I cant see Japan changing their current policy. But, I still feel that it is wrong to prevent people who are born in Japan or have Japanese ancestry from having dual nationality.
But, this discussion is now getting too far away from the topic of Narumi and Mervin splitting up. So, lets get back to it!
first message in this topic is that in situations like this, where somebody wants to actively do something to help Japan, there should be some lee-way.
More important is insisting that the immigrant is able to speak (and, preferably, read and write) the language of the host country. Like, how can you manage to live somewhere if you can't communicate?
Finally, I think let`s talk and Olympia have summed up most of the issues raised about nationality/citizenship in this thread perfectly in the last 2 posts. So, perhaps this should be the end of this aspect of the discussion, so that we can concentrate on Mervin and Narumis futures.
In the US, there is no 'official language'. Most of the US speaks English, but there is a significant Spanish-speaking population. In some large cities, there are areas where the majority of the inhabitants speak little or no English. In the NY-NJ area, you can take the written driving test in many languages.
Yesterday, the JSF figure skating director Ito commented on Takahashi's new partner. Selection is underway in preference to Japanese citizens. They want to make a new team until next February when Takahashi can resume training.
There are so many talented Japanese men in men's singles. Shame a few cannot try pairs.Quite a few top skaters may not be big enough but Kento Nakamura is listed as 5'9, and Ryuichi Kihara 5'8.
I think this is the kind of situation in which the national federation needs to take the lead. The JSF is a powerful federation, and it should be making pairs training available and encouraging young skaters in that direction. The incentive is simple in Japan: there are not enough singles spots on the national team for every good skater. Six more skaters can go to Worlds in pairs spots.
This might not get Narumi a good partner by 2013, but the next Narumi to come along will have a partner worthy of her skills.
And in my experience, it actually takes the guy longer to come up to speed than the lady. Isabella Brasseur was making a splash at Canadian Nationals & went to Olympics in 1988 in her first season-it helps to have Lloyd Eisler as a partner.
The only example of a quick study for the man in the pair would be Rodnina Zaitsev-but she didn't do throw jumps...& in general requirements were very different pre 1980.
There is physical strength in the upper body that the guys need to build up that might have been neglected a bit as singles, IMO.
Your statement reminds me of how Yuka Sato became a pairs skater late in her career to skate with her husband, Jason Dunjen. She didn't skate in eligible competitions, but she did skate competitively, and pretty well, too. The thing that pairs ladies have to possess, or somehow attain, is the highest degree of courage in the figure-skating world. The stuff that ladies have to do in lifts these days is closer to being a trapeze artist than it is to anything in singles skating. The fact that Yuka was able to come to terms with all that stuff well into her twenties made me admire her even more than I originally did (which was already quite a lot).
I usually reply to a thread after scanning through before posting - but I'm gonna post first this time: I'm so sad! Their chemistry was SOOOO cute together!
I'm worried now with the Korean ice dance pair with their nationality issues - although this time, the Korean fed is trying to convince the government and ISU, who knows what will happen?

It's hard to fault anyone for feeling a bit apprehensive about NVIDIA's (NASDAQ: NVDA ) future. While this company still has a solid market position in graphics processor units, or GPUs, over rivals Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD ) and Intel (NASDAQ: INTC ) , evidence suggests that this may not last. But it's not for the reasons that you think.
For instance, in their respective quarterly performances, shipments of AMD GPU/CPUs dropped 15% year over year in the fourth quarter. By comparison, revenue from Intel's PC client group was down 6% year over year and 1.5% sequentially. Meanwhile, NVIDIA's desktop shipments spiked up 28.3% from the previous quarter, while mobile discrete shipments advanced 12%.
Remarkably, in a down market, NVIDIA's overall PC graphics shipments soared roughly 20%. This is while AMD struggled with weak microprocessor shipments that lead to a 37% year-over-year decline in revenue. Despite this outperformance by NVIDIA, the Street remains unimpressed. That the success of its business is heavily predicated on PC sales makes it hard to generate any sort of optimism. The fact is, PCs are still dying and NVIDIA understands this.
To that end, the company has been working hard to transform itself from just a legacy PC supplier to company entrenched in the new era of mobile devices. Unfortunately, the Street has not been buying this story. Bears argue that NVIDIA is too far behind the likes of Qualcomm. Though this might be true today, NVIDIA's recent numbers suggest that this deficit is anything but insurmountable.
With fourth-quarter earnings due out Wednesday, the company will take the stage to explain to investors why they should believe in this story and why NVIDIA deserves more time. The company needs to build upon an impressive Q3, during which it beat both top and bottom line estimates, and culminate its fiscal year on a solid note.
Granted, NVIDIA's third quarter wasn't Qualcomm-esque, but it significantly outperformed Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN ) , which is trading at a P/E ratio that is 7 points higher. Meanwhile, Texas Instruments is going through the same restructuring efforts as NVIDIA and trying to prove it can grow without mobile. However, its recent efforts have resulted in declining revenue for five consecutive quarters.
Nevertheless, despite sales arriving down 12% sequentially and 13% year over year, the Street believes in Texas Instruments. Conversely, NVIDIA is growing market share amid much doom and gloom, and the Street does not care. Fairly or unfairly, this is NVIDIA's reality. And the company has done this as sales of its Tegra line of chips have seen increased demand, which was exactly what investors were apprehensive about.
However, I'm inclined to think that the stream of bearishness is more about fears from the competition and less about NVIDIA's ability to execute. Clearly, the company has not been hurt by rising inventories -- as Intel and AMD experienced -- and hurting gross margins. So, NVIDIA knows what it is up against. And its new mobile strategy based on its Tegra chips, which integrate many of the features of the ARM architecture, seems to be working pretty well. But will it be enough?
What the company reports this afternoon after market close will answer this question, at least in the near term. Analysts are expecting earnings of $0.23 per share on revenue of $1.1 billion. This would represent EPS growth of 9.5% and 15.4% growth in revenue. It's worth noting here that NVIDIA has increased revenue for two consecutive quarters, including 13% in Q3. For a company that has to be great just to be good, it needs to reach the high end of its guidance range for the stock to rally.
Speaking of which, I think these shares are worth a gamble here for the long term. There's very little expected when compared to Qualcomm and even Texas Instruments. At current levels, I think the risk-reward trade-off favors NVIDIA, even more than Intel. And it is not unrealistic to expect fair value to reach $15 to $18 over the next 12 to 16 months.
NVIDIA was ahead of the curve launching its mobile Tegra processor, but investing gains haven't followed as expected, with the company struggling to gain momentum in the smartphone market. The Motley Fool's brand-new premium report examines NVIDIA's stumbling blocks, but also homes in on opportunities that many investors are overlooking. We'll help you sort fact from fiction to determine whether NVIDIA is a buy at today's prices. Simply click here now to unlock your copy of this comprehensive report.

A New Jersey teen today admitted involvement in the vicious bat beating that left a Staten Island plumber in a coma for more than a month, but denied using a weapon in the attack.
William (Billy) LaBarbera pleaded guilty to a count of second-degree assault stemming from the gang-style beat down in January when two carloads of teens bashed, kicked, stomped and slammed John Candela of New Dorp with a bat and a wrench in the parking lot of a Mariners Harbor movie theater.
LaBarbera, 18, of Howell N.J., faces two years behind bars under the deal when he returns to state Supreme Court, St. George, Aug. 17 for sentencing in front of Justice Leonard P. Rienzi.
Prosecutors said the Jersey teen's agreement called for lesser time than the three and one-half years accomplices Stephen Walsh and Stephen Gregoreadis each received last month because LaBarbera reportedly "kicked" Candela while Walsh used a bat and Gregoreadis admittedly slammed the victim with a wrench.
Candela, 22, suffered a fractured skull, fractured cheekbone, a ruptured spleen, bleeding on the brain and bruises from head to toe that rendered him comatose for a month and a half. He was released from the hospital in March.
"[LaBarbera] didn't possess a weapon like his accomplices did," Assistant District Attorney Paul Capofari said to the judge today.
Defense attorney Patrick Parrotta said prosecutors "could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt" that LaBarbera's feet caused the severe damage that rendered Candela comatose.
"Doctors said the injury is consistent with being struck by a bat or a wrench," Parrotta said outside the courtroom following the plea. "It is not contested in any way that Mr. Walsh and Mr. Gregoreadis were the ones that brought the bat and the wrench.
"My client was the only one in the group that didn't have a bat or a wrench," Parrotta said.
Prosecutors charged that Candela's ex-girlfriend Amanda Cerullo, 16, of Eltingville, recruited her new boyfriend, Walsh, and the others to ambush Candela as he walked to the United Artists All-Staten Island Stadium movie theater with his new girlfriend because she felt "scorned" after he had dumped her.
In an interview last month, Candela recalled that LaBarbera and Miss Cerullo were "kicking my face" as he lay helpless on the ground when Gregoreadis stepped in and pulled LaBarbera away.
"He saved my life that night," Candela said of Gregoreadis. "That kid, Billy, was on top of me. He pulled him off."
Miss Cerullo is charged with first-degree assault, a Class B violent felony that carries a minimum five and maximum of 25 years in prison upon conviction.
She is due to return to court Aug. 17.

How to succeed, stay sane, and have fun at work: a survival guide for the road weary
David Rabiner, CSP
Partner, Rabiner Resources
Portland, Oregon
Speaker, 2008 APWA Snow Conference
Editor's Note: David Rabiner is the Closing General Session Speaker at the 2008 APWA North American Snow Conference in Louisville, Kentucky. His session takes place at 3:00 p.m. Tuesday, April 15 at the Kentucky International Convention Center. For more information on the Snow Conference see pages 13-16 or visit our website at www.apwa.net/snow.
I am excited about the opportunity to speak to you at the North American Snow Conference this April in Louisville. I promise that my program, How to Succeed, Stay Sane, and Have Fun at Work: A Survival Guide for the Road Weary, will be fun, informative, and thought-provoking. This article provides a quick lead-in to my keynote, using the best real-life story I can think of that illustrates how to achieve success, maintain sanity, and have some fun in the workplace.
Are you familiar with the story of Sir Ernest Shackleton? Long story short, in 1914, Shackleton and a crew of 27 men set sail from the island of South Georgia in the Southern Ocean. Their goal was to reach Antarctica and complete its first overland crossing.
Shackleton's ship became trapped and eventually crushed in ice just off the coast of Antarctica. (Now that's a bad day at the office!) After two years of agonizing cold, fatigue and hunger, Shackleton and his entire crew were rescued. But by all accounts, recorded in the men's journals, the crew responded to the hellish conditions with teamwork, self-sacrifice and amazing good cheer.
Many books have been written and movies made about Shackelton's journey and the factors that enabled him and his crew to survive. These factors can be condensed to a set of principles common to many other stories of resiliency, stamina and achievement. The principles include:
It's not rocket science, is it? While the Shackleton crew's astonishing story points to these simple principles, we could have guessed them from our own experiences and using common sense.
As simple as these principles seem, why is it so hard then for most of us to live them consistently? If we know that long-term goals and short-term objectives are a key to achieving what we want in life, then why do the majority of us not set them? Is it so tough to be optimistic and confident? Are we that resistant to having fun, taking good care of our physical selves, and setting examples for others to follow? Not at all—we're just human.
When it comes to being the kinds of people we want to be, we humans face two big challenges: (1) accurately assessing our current strengths and weaknesses; and (2) being able to translate positive qualities into behaviors.
Accurate Assessment
In order for us to improve, it seems reasonable that we need to know what needs improving. But because we are the worst at assessing our own strengths and weaknesses, we must turn to others for help. That help usually comes from our spousal equivalents. We get lots of feedback from them—more feedback than we are actually looking for—and the better portion of it is, uh, critical.
At work, we're lucky if we get an annual performance evaluation once a year and those usually are not that helpful, as bosses tend to generalize strengths and sugarcoat weaknesses.
In fact, most of us surround ourselves with people who validate our strengths, and we confuse the validation with assessment.
If we genuinely want an accurate assessment, we need to find someone in our life who:
If you are lucky enough to have someone who fills that bill, then getting an assessment requires more than just asking for it. It requires creating an environment in which assessing you feels good for them.
All in all, getting an accurate assessment is difficult. On balance, it is easier to identify and strive for the qualities you admire than to spend time figuring out whether or not you have them.
Translating Qualities to Behaviors
Getting back to Shackleton, let's turn the five principles for resiliency, stamina and achievement into personal qualities. Shackleton was a goal-setter, optimistic and confident, fun, in good shape physically, and a role model for his crew. Assuming these five qualities would help anyone succeed, stay sane and have fun at work, what specifically would you do to personally demonstrate these qualities?
Being able to translate qualities into behaviors is a critical step for personal and professional growth, but it is not without its challenges. Let's say, for example, that we want to be more optimistic and confident. That might translate into standing straighter with shoulders back and chin up, smiling more, and using phrases like "we can do it" and "no problem."
Inspired to change, we go to work and try out our new behaviors. Naturally, we feel uncomfortable at first, but we try out our new optimism and confidence anyway. What is the reaction of others to our new and improved selves? Our fear is that the people close to us will view the change with skepticism and apprehension. In the face of this potential reaction and the level of discomfort we already feel just from trying something new, we are likely to abandon our efforts to change.
If this experience sounds familiar, then you understand the challenges of translating qualities to behaviors successfully. There is hope, however, and it is found in The Principle of Principles.
Rely on Principles...and the Rest Will Follow
Ernest Shackleton is a real-life example of someone who steadfastly relied on The Principle of Principles and trusted they would lead to his unflagging vision of rescue. If you are interested in learning more about his unbelievable struggle for survival, Alfred Lansing's book, ENDURANCE: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage, is a great read.
In my April program, I will explain The Principle of Principles and lead you through a three-step process that will help you turn desired qualities into personal virtues, generate internal energy, and fortify personal resilience. And, we'll have fun in the process. I look forward to seeing you in Louisville.

GRAND RAPIDS -- It was the dress seen around the world on TV, now come to Grand Rapids.
Princess Diana's fairy-tale wedding gown of ivory silk taffeta and lace went on display Tuesday at the Grand Rapids Art Museum.
Only a few feet away, a video played highlights of her July 1981 wedding to Prince Charles, her horse-drawn carriage ride through the streets of London, and her procession up the aisle of St. Paul's Cathedral with her 25-foot train unfurled behind her.
"There's one little brown mark on it, and I know where it is," said art handler Nick Grossmark, who traveled with the exhibition to Grand Rapids.
"And nobody sees it," he added.
But visitors saw Diana's entire wedding ensemble, from vintage earrings to embroidered slippers, as part of the exhibition "Diana -- A Celebration."
About 100 people who bought timed tickets for the first hour were there for the 10 a.m. opening of the museum's doors.
Shirley Jacobs and Angela Johnson drove from Jackson early in the morning to see the exhibition on its opening day.
Both count themselves as admirers of Princess Diana.
"She was just like Jackie Kennedy. Her kids always came first," Jacobs said.
"We really respect her. She was a great lady," Johnson added.
The exhibit's nearly 150 items range from childhood toys to condolence books sent from all over the world following Diana's death in 1997 following an automobile accident in Paris.
Many of the 472 visitors on Tuesday lingered in the dress gallery, displaying 27 of her outfits, from evening gowns to more casual attire.
"Her gowns are absolutely stunning," said Cathy Meverden, of Grand Rapids. "I can only imagine the price tags on the them."
The selection of famous dresses includes the Jacques Azagury evening gown she wore on her 36th birthday in July 1997, her last public appearance before her death in August.
|'Diana: A Celebration' opens in Grand Rapids
"There was no point in picking things that people wouldn't relate to," Grossmark said last week.
Galleries are devoted to her charity work, which included such wide-ranging causes as families of prisoners and victims of landmines.
If you go
When: Now through Feb. 16
Where: Grand Rapids Art Museum, 101 Monroe Center NW
Hours: 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tuesdays-Saturdays (until 9 p.m. Fridays); noon-5 p.m. Sundays
Admission: $20 adults; $18 seniors and students; $15 ages 6-17; free to children 5 and younger; $5 for GRAM members
More info: 831-1000, artmuseum.org
"She was one of the first dignitaries to shake the hands of people who had AIDS and Leprosy," said art handler Graeme Murton, who installed the exhibition. "She was a princess. She didn't have to do any of this."
Tuesday's opening fell on the 25th anniversary of an official White House dinner for Prince Charles and Princess Diana given by President Ronald Reagan and First Lady Nancy Reagan, during which she famously danced ith John Travolta.
The exhibition from Althorp House in England, the Spencer family seat, will remain through Feb. 16. Princess Diana's brother, Charles Spencer, the 9th Earl Spencer, is scheduled to visit the museum in January.
Murton, who lives in London near Kensington Palace, where Princess Diana lived during her marriage as well as after her divorce, met Diana himself while walking his dog, which Diana stopped to admire.
"Little did I know in a few years, I'd be working for her," he said.

The child pornography found on an external hard drive at College of the Canyons was not associated with any of the college's computers, a COC spokesman said Friday.
COC public relations director John McElwain clarified on Friday that the external thumb drive was initially found in the photo department computer lab by an instructor. At that time, the instructor did not view the contents of the drive and placed it in the school's lost and found box, assuming a student had left it behind and would eventually come to reclaim it.
The Signal incorrectly reported the drive had been found Thursday. In fact, McElwain said, it was found last October.
When it still had not been claimed several weeks later, the instructor decided to look at the contents to see if he could determine the drive's owner.
"He plugged it in to see if he could figure out who it belonged to," said McElwain. "That's when the pornographic images were discovered."
Following school policy for such situations, the instructor immediately contacted the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and turned the device over to deputies on Nov. 6.
"There was no pornography on any college computer system or servers," McElwain said. "It was just one external hard drive left lying around by an individual," and did not belong to the college.
McElwain said the Sheriff's Department has been doing its due diligence to track down the person who put the images on the device, though he had not had an update from investigators since November.
Capt. Joe Gutierrez of the Sheriff's Department's Special Victims Bureau said Thursday that a search warrant had been issued at the Saugus residence of someone associated with the hard drive, and additional potential evidence was recovered.
He did not specify what that evidence was, nor whether the resident of the house on Tupelo Ridge Drive was the owner of the images.
The investigation is ongoing, and no arrests have been made so far, according to Gutierrez.

When the woman who gave birth to two children with Thomas O. Hill said that she had another on the way, police in Burlington County say, the ex-con insisted on an abortion.
But the woman wanted to keep the pregnancy, police said, and an argument over the issue inside her home on Union Landing Road, in Cinnaminson, turned violent Sunday.
"He got pissed off at her," said Cinnaminson Police Det. Sgt William Covert.
Hill, 24, of Camden, is accused of sexually assaulting the woman in a bedroom where three children, including two of his own, were sleeping, Covert said.
One child allegedly was knocked off a mattress during the assault, Covert added.

6 Tips for Traveling with Your Kids and Staying Green
filed under: eco toddler, green family, green kids, parenting
Take the Green Way There
Of course, when you have little tiny ones (with all the baby accoutrements such as strollers and pack and plays), travels by car might be necessary. But once kids are older, consider taking buses, trains, or even a boat instead of a car or a plane. Getting to your destination will be part of the adventure! Or at least consider ditching the car once you get to your location and making a concerted effort to use public transportation: it will help you avoid getting lost on unfamiliar roadways and allows you and the kids to see the city in a more relaxed, fun way.
Come Prepared for Sugar Lows
Nothing throws a travelling child for a loop like the combination of a disruption from their normal routine combined with low blood sugar. Bringing your own healthy snacks means kids will get nutritious and filling snacks and that you will be less likely to buy unhealthy junk out of desperation at a rest stop or while waiting for the plane. Our picks: granola or one of our other top choices for nutritious on-the-go snacks. Once you're at your destination, use the opportunity to introduce kids to new, healthy snack foods like native fruits or nuts.
Make the Place You Stay Like a Home Away from Home
You work hard at being eco-friendly at home, so keep up the momentum and stay at a green hotel that offers perks such as recycling, monitoring water usage and refraining from changing the sheets twice a day. At the moment there are multiple green hotel certifications with everyone from Travelocity to some pretty random companies handing out "green" seals of approval, so don't be afraid to dig a bit deeper and call to speak with the hotel's staff about their eco-friendly commitments. iStayGreen.com has traveler reviews as well as a self-audit process, which is then verified by the site.
You can also rent an apartment or do a house swap. Staying somewhere with a kitchen (also offered in many chain hotels as a suite option and usually for not much more money) allows you to actually save money on eating out for every meal and is also great for families with dietary considerations, for whom restaurants can be a challenge. Scout out the area farmer's markets and bring home the bounty for meals. By doing just a bit more research, you can hopefully avoid bringing back a suitcase full of things to recycle.

I finally had it with my crappy TV speakers and installed my surround sound speakers. I purchased a Samsung 5.1 home theater setup 2 years ago and had used it in my last apartment. Ever since my wife and I moved into the new house, the setup had been sitting in boxes in the basement. I was going to wait until we purchased an entertainment center to install everything, but this past weekend, I just couldn't take watching HD movies on TV speakers anymore. Since the Bears/Giants game was a bust, I had some free time available.
There are always issues when choosing to go with a PC surround sound setup, the most important being space and configuration. Some people have odd shaped rooms and setting up can be aggravating, as you need to position each speaker correctly. This requires wall mounts or shelves, tons of wiring, and a creation of a sound "zone." Then an audio program is needed that can properly configure each channel for optimal sound. The next problem is the sound itself. If you live in an apartment, or a house that doesn't have sound dampened walls, you're limited on how loud you can go, as other people will get aggravated, especially with games or movies that have explosions, gunfire, and crashes. This is where enclosed surround sound headsets come into play. They have no significant setup time and limit the sound experience to the user.
The Arctic Sound P531 is a fully enclosed 5.1 surround sound gaming headset. The Sound P531 comes with 4 drivers on each earpiece offering front, center, and side surround channels. The P531 has integrated vibration units that add an extra experience to gaming. Arctic also used a USB interface, which limits distortion and offers digital audio. There is an in-line volume control for on-the-fly adjustments.
