What have we done to help educate the children in Alabama? Is the voucher system we just voted in going to help our children?
Almost everyone in the state knows that we need to do something to help our schools; the schools especially know that. But I don't see how this system is going to help those who cannot afford to move their children to a school deemed not failing. Unless a family makes and income of over $70,000, they will not get that $3,500 dollar tax credit.
Are we destroying any hope that the poor have in our state? How will they be able to transfer their children to non-failing schools? The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Shameful that the legislature couldn't find other ways to help our schools. Seems like this last effort only makes it harder for those who have no resources and will have to keep their children in failing schools.

The Dance Your Ass Off host, 36, recently loaded up her little guy into a wagon along with a pal's son to lug them around the neighborhood – her version of a fun Biggest Loser challenge.
Here, in her weekly PEOPLE.com weight loss-blog, she shares her triumphs and her trip-ups on her quest to shedding pounds.
It's week four of my PEOPLE.com weight-loss blog and I can finally think about something other than the foods I am missing, or the temptations that haunt me all day long or the bags of candy that I bought at Costco for Zev's birthday party next week. The bags that sit in arm's reach as I type. Okay, back to NOT thinking about the temptations and back to telling you about week four!
I felt like supermom! I would work out in the morning while Zev napped and then work out again when he went to sleep! I admit I was a little crazy on the treadmill! Up until last week, it literally had huge Tupperware bins full of winter sweaters and coats I keep meaning to put into storage!
Thankfully, I have a TV in the room with TiVo so I wasn't bored. I first watched Dance Your Ass Off (yes, a shameless plug!) and I ran as fast as I could while they danced. I used to do this with Dancing with the Stars and The Biggest Loser. It works great – the music takes my mind off of how boring the treadmill can be! I also worked out to The Bachelorette but got too mad at Wes and had to stop to watch him get the boot already! But I digress.
I ran my fastest mile – I was so proud of myself! I don't know what is considered fast but I was running at 6.0 and 7.0 and finished a mile in just under 10 min. (9 min. and 50 sec.) and that seemed really fast to me!
Baby StepsI also found a great way to count calories! I just Googled "calorie count" and lo and behold there are many free places that will help you keep a record of your food intake and count your calories for you. I found the one at caloriecount.about.com to be amazing! You find your food and serving and type it in and at the end of the day you get a grade!!!!
I had an amazing weekend: Zev actually went into the ocean for the first time at a friend's birthday party and I did not have cake. Both were milestones!!!! Okay, I had a bite of cake – but one bite of yummy red velvet cake won't make a difference, and it was worth it!
My biggest challenge this week: going to many parties and staying on track with my calories. Sometimes I failed, but the people who say they don't cheat are lying!
I am most proud of: putting myself first but making it work around Zev. Okay, so putting myself second but not forgetting that I matter ;)

Home Owners Associations
Our goal is to provide the highest quality painting job with outstanding customer service. One of the first questions we ask the homeowner is if they have a particular problem, question or if they are concern about a particular area of the project that may require special attention.
A home owner association unlike some other projects has very unique challenges, the main difference is that we're not painting a single residence but a multiple residence building and for that reason we treat every wall, every door and every single item as if it was a single residence we also need to have a detail scope of the work to be done.
In this kind of projects we may encounter very different scenarios that will need a specific painting procedure
There is a variety of situations for example if the property is close to the ocean or if the stucco has a lot of cracks or we may encounter water intrusion thru windows. We will need to work directly with a paint manufacture representative (Dunn Edwards, Frazee, Sherwin Williams, ICI. Etc) To determine the best materials/techniques for your buildings. They will walk the job with us to look at the condition of the surfaces to be painted then the paint manufacture representative will make a recommendation for the buildings.
For example if the stucco has a lot of hair line cracks they will recommend a flexible primer to help the finish coat to perform the best. Or if the property has had problems with water intrusion they will recommend an elastometric coating with specific preparation on all expose windows and doors. Or if the property is closed to the ocean they'll recommend specialty coatings for metals and wood.
Once they walk the job and determine the best painting procedure and materials for you project they will write this procedure for you, this are called the specifications, this specifications are our very "step by step" specific instructions of materials to be used and preparation of how we "Eco G painters" are going to do the work.
A foreman from Eco G Painters and a project manager will be assigned to your project to work with the HOA representative to handle all schedules, materials and equipment storages and any other issues that may come up during and after the paint process.
Once we have the specs and colors approved we are ready to schedule the actual painting of the project.
We will deliver notices to home owners were we give them the start date and a list of their responsibilities to make the painting process a more pleasant experience
- Move or protect all items expose to water damage
- Water blast to remove all loose materials
- Scrape and sand surfaces as needed
- Apply Patching and spot/full prime on affected areas (stucco, wood, metals, etc.)
- Apply a full coat of finish paint to stucco surfaces
- Apply a second coat of finish paint to stucco surfaces*
- Apply a full coat of paint to all wood surfaces
- Apply a second coat of paint to wood surfaces*
- Apply a full coat of finish paint to doors, windows, casings and misc. metals
- Final detail and touch up
- Final walk thru and sign off the job
* If required by contract
For your peace of mind Eco G Painters will endorse your property for any damages that may happen during the paint process
Here are the insurance converges that Eco G Painters Carries for your property
- Liability - 1,000,000.00 per occurrence
- Workers compensation - 1,000,000.00 per occurrence
- Automobile - 1, 000,000.00 per occurrence

CPR not only saves lives, it's easier to do than most people think, said Keith Loreno, chief of Fostoria Fire Division, who was the guest speaker Wednesday afternoon at a Fostoria Area Safety Council meeting.
"CPR is one of those things that can be a lot simpler than we're making it," Loreno said. "The reality with CPR is you're going to save somebody's life."
Loreno presented "Saving Lives: The public responder before the first responder" and said increasing a person's chance of survival starts before a first responder's arrival.
Article Photos
Keith Loreno, chief of Fostoria Fire Division, answers questions Wednesday afternoon at a Fostoria Area Safety Council meeting.
It's as easy as two steps: the first is calling 911 and the second is pushing hard and fast on a person's chest between the nipple line. Providing breaths for the victim is not necessary, he said.
"If you don't do anything, the probability of survival is low," he said. "If someone initiates CPR, it will double or even triple their chance of survival."
"This is the difference in someone's survival, and it's not that tough to do," Loreno added.
Loreno said many people do not recognize the signs of a heart attack, yet its estimated 715,000 people in the United States will have one this year.
Of 383,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests that occur annually, about 88 percent happen at home, he said.
"It may be your own child," Loreno said.
At the end of Wednesday's meeting, Loreno was presented a $1,000 check on behalf of the Fostoria Area Chamber of Commerce toward Fostoria Fire Division's CPR training program. The money is to be used for the purchase of CPR mannequins.

93 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - November/December 2010
($130; 80% chardonnay and 20% pinot noir; disgorged February, 2009) Bright gold. Captivating, exotically perfumed nose offers singed orange, poached pear, powdered stone, botanical herbs, wisteria and iodine; no way I'd have guessed that this came from the (usually) justly maligned 2001 vintage. Dense, pure and precise, with lovely smokiness and sweetness and a fine-grained texture to its mineral, spice, orchard fruit and floral flavors. Offers terrific palate presence and finishes with compelling minerality and subtle hints of vanilla and nutmeg. Talk about transcending the year!

Patterson wins approval to display famed Travis letter at Alamo
Good work by Texas Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson to persuade the State Library and Archives Commission to reverse itself and allow a public display of Col. William Barret Travis' famed "Victory or Death" letter at the Alamo for the 177th anniversary of that pivotal battle. (State archivists initially recommended against moving the very fragile letter from its dark vault in Austin to San Antonio.) Patterson's work is not yet done, as he has pledged to raise the $100,000 needed for transportation and security. We expect Texans who appreciate their state's rich history to stand with him for this "once in a lifetime" opportunity.
More fall color in Dallas
It looks like Dallas can't get enough of bright, colorful things — and we're not talking about fall foliage. About 460,000 visitors have been drawn to the Dallas Arboretum since the opening of the Chihuly glass sculpture exhibit in May, and some 150,000 toured the Chinese Lantern Festival during the State Fair of Texas. Both shows are getting a second life, with the Chihuly extended through the end of the year and the lantern festival reopening Nov. 1 through Jan. 6. Good for them, and good for more choices for art lovers in North Texas.
Frank Luksa: A terrific sportswriter but an even better friend
It's hard to imagine for most of us in newspapers, but we should all hope to be remembered as fondly as longtime sportswriter and columnist Frank Luksa, who died this week at 77. Luksa's graceful and amusing writing enlivened The Dallas Morning News, Dallas Times Herald and Fort Worth Star-Telegram over more than four decades. He's best known professionally for covering the Dallas Cowboys from their inception until his retirement. But his legacy is that of a man who managed to inform, entertain and compete without rancor or deception. He will be missed.
Marketing campaign puts city in national spotlight
Dallas is launching a new brand and marketing campaign that not only will put our city on the map but, more important, keep it on the minds of people from Washington, D.C., to New Mexico as they consider tourism and convention destinations. The "Dallas: Big Things Happen Here" campaign includes a flashy video display depicting Fair Park festivities, the lights of downtown, our new deck park and Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, and lots of other inviting sites around town. It made us want to go out and explore, and heck, we already live here.
A step forward on benefits for domestic partners
Extending health care benefits to domestic partners is still controversial turf for many public and private employers. To their credit, Dallas County commissioners are edging closer to this important goal. If their plan is approved as expected at a coming meeting, the county will contribute, in cash, to employees with domestic partners the same amount it contributes to the health care of spouses. It's a step into this century, not a moment too soon.
Sky Ball event at airport thanks troops for sacrifice
Thousands are expected to gather at D/FW Airport this weekend for the 10th annual Sky Ball honoring veterans. Actor Gary Sinise and the Lt. Dan Band are providing entertainment in a donated American Airlines hangar. Sinise, who played the disabled veteran Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump, heads a foundation devoted to home construction and assistance for veterans and first responders. A bumper sticker is one thing, but the real mark of support for our troops is attendance and donations from individuals, foundations and businesses that make events like Sky Ball such a success.
At least Jasso appointee knew enough to go away
Alex Hernandez has a ways to go to repair his reputation, but at least he has stepped down from Dallas' Judicial Nominating Commission. Hernandez cast the sole vote for Paula Rosales Aldana, whom the City Council later appointed to a municipal bench. Without Hernandez's support, the council could not have considered her. Only after she was sworn in did it become public that she and Hernandez once lived together. Rosales, 31, may perform well enough to validate her former boyfriend's backing, but either way, council member Delia Jasso should take more care with her next commission appointment.
Homeless former gang member fights on right side of the law
Help can come from the most unexpected places, and a Dallas police officer should be thankful today that a homeless former gang leader was looking out for him. Officer Billy Taylor tried to break up a fight outside The Bridge, the downtown homeless center. One man charged and punched the officer, before Charles "Chucky" Alexander and a security guard rushed to help. Alexander body-slammed the assailant and held him until backup arrived. City officials say they plan to recognize Alexander's heroism, which he certainly earned.
It's been tough to see so many talented colleagues leave the newspaper business for other fields, but we had only one Superman. And now Clark Kent is deserting us, too, possibly to do his alter-ego writing as a blogger. Kent finally couldn't accept the changes to the profession he loved and stormed out of The Daily Planet for the last time, with a flourish: "I can't be the only one who's sick of what passes for the news today." Maybe a little overly dramatic, but Superman/Clark Kent is a comic-book legend. He's entitled to his view, even if it's still ink-on-paper.
Despite felony guilt, ex-judge could practice law again
It's disappointing to see the Board of Disciplinary Appeals fall short of delivering the proper sanction to Suzanne Wooten, a former judge in Collin County who pleaded guilty in November to bribery, money laundering, engaging in organized criminal activity and tampering with a governmental record. That plea deal limited her penalty to a fine, and now, with a suspension instead of disbarment, she can legally practice law again once her 10-year probation ends. Beth Stevens of the State Bar of Texas argued that "to allow her to keep her law license would undermine that integrity and erode the public's confidence in our profession." We couldn't agree more.

Disaster relief officials are on standby on the Gulf Coast as Hurricane Isaac makes its way toward the region Tuesday.
"As we prepare for Isaac to hit, I want to encourage local residents of the Gulf Coast to listen to your local officials and follow their directions, including if they tell you to evacuate," President Obama said in a statement.
"We're dealing with a big storm, and there could be significant flooding and other damage across a large area," he warned. "Now's not the time to tempt fate. Now's not the time to dismiss official warnings. You need to take this seriously."
No stranger to hurricanes, CBN's Operation Blessing International is currently positioned outside New Orleans to offer assistance to the city's residents.

Road Rage Or Self Defense?
This will be an interesting case to follow, if for no other reason than to find out what really happened. Apparently – from very early reports – a guy in a truck was attempting to merge onto I-95 and a guy in a Jaguar did not make what the truck driver considered adequate room for the truck driver to get onto the highway. So the truck driver proceeded to SMASH INTO the Jaguar numerous times while the two were driving up the highway. Somehow both vehicles ended up on the left shoulder, whereupon the guy in the Jaguar started shooting at the truck with his legally-owned pistol.
You can click here to see what the Jaguar looked like afterwards. The guy driving it had his young daughter in the front seat.
When I first heard about this on the radio, from the way it was reported I thought "there is a guy who should not have a firearm." You are not supposed to shoot at other vehicles because of highway disputes, you are just supposed to get away from vehicles that are giving you a problem. But seeing the photo of the car has me wondering:
Granted that merge disputes happen all the time, if you were driving on 95 and a truck started purposefully crashing into your car, what would you do?
I am thinking, I would get the hell away from that truck and call 911, probably pulling off to the side of the road to do so. But what if the truck driver pulled over when I pulled over?
There seem to have been eyewitnesses so we will likely get more information as the story unfolds.

Greg Biffle's 19th career NASCAR Sprint Cup victory Sunday brought him into a tie on the all-time list with Dale Earnhardt Jr., the man most pundits claimed was supposed to win in the Irish Hills. It was like "Opposite Day" come to life, considering the two couldn't be more different. Earnhardt, revered through his personality and last name, is the sport's most popular driver. The whole grandstand shakes the second they see him in position to lead a lap.

That being said, we have to give Harry Styles some major credit for making the most of a bad situation. Instead of ignoring a mobile phone which landed on stage at his feet, he decided to take a little look.
And then he decided to text her DAD!
Apparently the father had text his daughter asking how the show was going. He allegedly replied: "Shows going well so far. This is harry texting from your daughters phone. That sounds weird. Hope she enjoyed the show. All the love. H . xxx"
These boys just LOVE to surprise us! It was only recently they brought a three-year-old fan on stage.
Check out the vines below - how cute is that face!

Locked in a heated election campaign, leaders of the Seneca Indian Nation have scheduled a news conference for this morning to discuss allegations of "possible fraud surrounding the whereabouts of millions of dollars meant for the Seneca people."
While Seneca officials declined to comment on the specifics, The Buffalo News learned that tribal officials will discuss a matter involving Barry E. Snyder Sr., a four-time Seneca Nation president who is one of the candidates in the tribe's Nov. 6 election.
Seneca President Robert Odawi Porter and Tribal Council Chairman Richard E. Nephew – who is running against Snyder and three other candidates – said they could not reveal what will be discussed at the event.
"[Seneca officials will] announce an investigation into possible fraud surrounding the whereabouts of millions of dollars meant for the Seneca people," the Senecas said in a news release.
Snyder told The News he has "no idea" what will be discussed but said he has nothing to hide. He said he is certain the current Seneca Nation leadership will be trying to discredit him "for political reasons."
"I have no idea what they're talking about. They'll try anything," Snyder said. "I think they are feeling the heat of the election. A lot of people are going with me."
In a very hard-fought election campaign, Snyder and Nephew are running against Cyrus Schindler, a former president; former Erie County Sheriff's Detective Norman "Cochise" Redeye and businessman Aaron Pierce. Porter cannot run for re-election because Seneca Nation laws bar anyone from serving as president two terms in a row.
The winner of the presidential election will control 1,300 tribal government jobs and have influence over the spending of hundreds of millions of dollars annually by the tribe and its gaming corporation, which runs three casinos.
Candidates, particularly Nephew and Snyder, have been trading heated accusations.
Nephew has raised numerous questions in recent weeks about Snyder's involvement in a $900,000 land fraud involving the Senecas' Hickory Stick golf course in Lewiston. A former lawyer for Snyder and a former top aide to Snyder have been implicated in federal court charges, but Snyder has not been charged in the case, which was investigated by the FBI.
Reliable sources told The News that the scheduled news conference will not focus on the golf course, but another financial matter involving Barry Snyder.
Snyder served as president before Porter, who took office in 2010.

Meet: Shonte Wright
Who I Am
I am a Thermal Systems Engineer in the Thermal
and Propulsion Engineering Section at Jet Propulsion Laboratory. I received
my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California at
San Diego (UCSD). While at UCSD I found the heat transfer and thermodynamics
portion of the curriculum to be particularly fascinating. This interest
encouraged me to pursue an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering - with an emphasis
in the thermal sciences, at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical
State University (NCAT).
What I Do
Presently, I am a Thermal Systems Engineer on the Mars Exploration
Rover (MER) Project. I am responsible for tracking thermal resources (heater
switches, heater power, thermostat count and set-points, temperature sensor
count, and subsystem mass) as well as functional requirements; regarding
these matters I am the technical interface with systems engineering, all
thermal elements, and project management. My systems engineering role
has been extended to include heater design and thermal testing. In addition
to my work on MER, I am a Technical Recruiter for the Mechanical Systems
Engineering and Research Division.
Prior to becoming involved with the MER project, I
was a member of the Europa Orbiter/Pluto Kuiper Thermal Team. My responsibilities
included the design, implementation, and verification of the preliminary
thermal designs of the Europa Orbiter propulsion module, main engine assembly,
and thruster cluster assembly. I also worked with the Center for Space
Mission Architecture and Design in a simulation of a concurrent formulation
phase design process in which her thermal analysis of a Europa Orbiter
Spacecraft design case was highlighted. In addition to my MER and Europa
Orbiter/Pluto Kuiper work, I supported the solar thermal vacuum test of
the Mars Odyssey Spacecraft at Lockeed Martin (Denver, CO).
Free Time!
In my free time I enjoy volunteering as an integration and test advisor
to a local school for the FIRST Robotics competition, a NASA-sponsored
nationwide robotics competition for high school students. I also really
like giving science-based presentations to elementary school kids in the
community, mentoring and tutoring high school students in the Pasadena,
CA area, and leading tours and other JPL related outreach events for elementary
and high school aged students.

The Black fury offers a medium depth running blade on a black muted background. for years there were 2 color choices, fluorescent red or the original yellow dot. Chartreuse was added by popular demand and more recently the new fire Tiger pattern which is a combination of the 3 existing colors.

Third Annual Faculty Scholarly Productivity Survey Again Goes Viral
Several years ago, Associate Dean Michael Yelnosky embarked on a study that would capture one important (and objective) measure of the quality of a law school: how often its faculty published in the most prestigious law journals.
Grades…Jobs…Second Semester….oh my!
The beginning of the second semester is probably one of the most stressful of all. While you would think the first semester "end game" of exams would be (and don't get me wrong, it is), finding out how you did on those exams is unnerving. Unlike being an undergrad, our grades don't get posted until January. What I find amazing at times is that, like undergrad, students seem to have various methods (or mind-sets) of checking their grades.

Legal Career Options Day 2009
Late in the fall semester, Roger Williams University School of Law hosted its Sixth Annual Legal Career Options Day, and over 150 law students had the chance to speak with almost 60 attorneys in our Atrium.

Career Services Dean Anthony Bastone once again recruited a broad cross-section of successful attorneys, manifesting the "versatility of the J.D. degree."

Government unions are trying to derail a series of common-sense reforms that would save taxpayers billions. During a rally at the Arizona State Capitol on March 1, 2012, union leaders bashed the Goldwater Institute and forward-thinking legislators for wanting to protect the pocketbooks of middle-class families in the state.
The average government worker now receives hourly pay and benefits that are 44 percent higher than the average private sector worker's. Those high costs are bankrupting state and local governments—and taxpayers—across the nation.

About This Book
This charming book introduces one of the most popular artists of the twentieth century, Diego Rivera, to young readers. It tells the story of Diego as a young, mischievous boy who demonstrated a clear passion for art and then went on to become one of the most famous painters in the world.
Duncan Tonatiuh also prompts readers to think about what Diego would paint today. Just as Diego's murals depicted great historical events in Mexican culture or celebrated native peoples, if Diego were painting today, what would his artwork depict? How would his paintings reflect today's culture?

Jimmy Webb's great uncle and aunt celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary Tuesday. They did so, sitting beyond the left-field fence at Loyalsock watching their nephew play.
Webb might be the best of the bunch, but he comes from a true baseball family. And after he verbally committed to play baseball at Wake Forest Monday night, the whole family could not think of a better place to celebrate. Baseball is who the Webbs are.
"This was my, my dad's and my grandfather's dream since I started playing baseball," Webb said after going 3 for 3 in an 11-1 win over Hughesville. "It's surreal that it came true. We all had a pretty good (Monday) night."
Article Photos
Jimmy Webb of Loyalsock runs the bases Tuesday vs. Hughesville.
Only a sophomore, Webb has piece of mind now, knowing his post high school career is mapped out. Following a dominant freshman season in which he hit .507 with 26 RBI, 11 extra-base hits, 15 stolen bases and a .729 on-base percentage, Webb started popping up on collegiate radars.
After Webb excelled at a prestigious tournament in Georgia last summer featuring some of the country's premier players, major Division I colleges throughout the country suddenly knew who Webb was. He suddenly was in big-time demand.
Since last summer, colleges have intensely recruited Webb and the right fielder is happy that the whole process is over. Now he can focus on being a full-time high school baseball player and high school student once again.
"I feel like it's a huge weight off my shoulders. You say it doesn't bother you, but it's always in the back of your mind thinking about that," Webb said. "It's a big relief to let everything settle down and know what's going on. It's a tough process so I'm happy I got it out of the way as a sophomore rather than waiting until my junior or senior year."
Webb appeared loose and confident Tuesday. His one-out, first-inning single ignited a rally that he capped by scoring off Tommy Baggett's double. An inning later, Webb slammed a two-run double that made it 4-0 and he ignited a three-run fourth-inning with another single before scoring again.
Two of Webb's hits came with two strikes and he took a good approach each time. One of the district's fastest runners also showed how dangerous he is on the bases, scoring twice while being able to take extra bases.
"Jimmy is more relaxed. We talk about the mental approach and just being able to come out and play the game and he did that," Loyalsock coach Jeremy Eck said. "He loves the game and he plays it 100 miles per hour so just having the ability to come out, step in the box, be comfortable, look for a pitch to drive and have fun, that's big."
Wake Forest was 28-25 (9-18?ACC) through Tuesday. The Deacons were 33-24 in 2012, their first winning season since 2008 under fourth-year coach Tom Walter.
What the rest of the season holds is uncertain, but Webb knowing how his collegiate future will go has a two-fold positive impact.
"Just the pressure of living up to things and not knowing was tough," Eck said. "We knew early on he was a kid who wanted to commit early so he can take a deep breath and be comfortable and now he is able to do that."
"As soon as I went there I felt a real strong bond with the coaches and then they showed me all the facilities and they were beautiful," Webb said. "It was just a great place and I fell in love right away."
Let the party continue.

Bridge replacement closes road in Russell County, Virginia
RUSSELL COUNTY, Va. - Some traffic in Lebanon, Virginia is being detoured while crews work to replace a bridge.
Construction along Business Route 19 has the road shut down near Lebanon Town Hall.
Crews are working to replace a bridge and it's causing many drivers to make u-turns. "A lot of traffic that has to turn around and go back because the signs are not where they can see them. Just a lot of traffic turning around," says Jimmy Honaker who owns 'Jimmy's Detailing' near the construction.
We're told construction should take about seven weeks and should be wrapped up by the end of August. Detours are posted.

A Genius for Place: American Landscapes of the Country Place Era
October 6 - December 30 2007
Explore an era of richly inventive landscapes. Historian and author Robin Karson and photographer Carol Betsch collaborate on these haunting images of six imaginative landscape designs. This collection showcases seventy 20-by-24 inch black-and-white photographs and seven 42-by-52-inch color Iris prints.
In conjunction with the exhibition Genius for Place: American Landscapes of the Country Place Era, guided tours of the original Bryant Fleming gardens will be offered on Saturdays at 1:30 pm during the duration of the exhibit.
Cheekwood has a significant place among the many incredibly designed Country Place estates of the early 1900's. Designed by nationally prominent landscape architect Bryant Fleming between 1929 and 1932, the estate offers an eighteenth-century English country house and garden in a southern setting. The traditional garden design includes water features, statues, rock-lined walls, pools and beautifully executed ornamental ironwork. English and European artifacts compliment both home and garden.
Fleming's brilliant design for home and gardens were placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.
This exhibition organized by Library of American Landscape History, Amherst, Massachusetts

the stack grows in one direction and buffers grow
in the other:
| unused stack space | buf | ... | return_addr | ... |
Lower memory address ----> Higher memory address
where buf is some local char array. A buffer
overflow (in the case, there are heap attacks too)
is only possible if a user over-writes the return
address or some other part of the "lower" stack
So why doesn't any OS define the stack growth in the
other direction:
| ... | return_addr | ... | buf | unused stack space |
Lower memory address ----> Higher memory address
The worst that can happen if a user overflows "buf"
is to over-write other local variables in the current
stack frame (not shown in the ASCII art), or write
to unused stack space.
I do realize both the OS and all apps would need to be
re-compiled to run on the new system, but that sort of
flash-cutover happened before. (IIRC early SunOS was
little-endian in one version and big-endian in the next.
Or maybe it's the other way around.)
But I've never seen this idea mentioned in ANY discussion
of buffer overflows. I can't be the first to think of
this simple idea, it seems obvious. So why isn't
this done? What am I (clearly a non-expert) missing?
Does anyone have any ideas?

Big Bang
For other uses, see Big Bang (disambiguation).
The Big Bang is a scientific theory about how the universe started, and then made the groups of stars (called galaxies) we see today. The universe began as very hot, small, and dense, with no stars, atoms, form, or structure (called a "singularity"). Then about 14 billion years ago,[1] space expanded very quickly (thus the name "Big Bang"), resulting in the formation of atoms, which eventually led to the creation of stars and galaxies. The universe is still expanding today, but getting colder as well.
As a whole, space is growing and the temperature is falling as time passes. Cosmology is the name given to how the universe began and how it has developed. Scientists that study cosmology agree the Big Bang theory matches what they have observed so far.[1]
Fred Hoyle called the theory the "Big Bang" on his radio show. He did not believe the Big Bang was correct. Scientists who did not agree with him thought the name was funny and decided to use it. Since then, Fred Hoyle's reasons for not agreeing with the theory have been proven wrong.[2]
Scientists base the Big Bang theory on many different observations. The most important is the redshift of very far away galaxies. Redshift is the Doppler Effect occurring in light. When an object moves away from earth, it looks reddish because the movement stretches the wavelength. The reddish color occurs because red is the longest wavelength on the visible spectrum. The more redshift there is, the faster the object is moving away. By measuring the redshift, scientists proved that the universe is expanding and can even work out how fast the object is moving. With precise observation and measurements, scientists believe that universe was a singularity approximately 13.8 billion years ago. Because most things become colder as they expand, the universe is assumed to have been very hot when it started.[3]
Other observations that support the Big Bang theory are the amounts of chemical elements in the universe. Amounts of hydrogen, helium, and lithium seem to agree with the theory of the Big Bang. Scientists also have found "cosmic microwaves background radiation". This radiation is known as radio waves, and they are everywhere in the universe. Even so, it is now very weak and cold, but a long time ago it was very strong and very hot.[1]
The Big Bang might also have been the beginning of time. If the Big Bang was the beginning of time, then there was no universe before the Big Bang, since there was no concept of "before" without time. Other ideas state that the Big Bang was not the beginning of time 13.8 billion years ago. Instead, some believe that there was a different universe before and it may have been very different from the one we know today.[3]

One answer is that it's a fascinating process. Electropolishing is the opposite of plating—an electrical current is applied in order to remove material instead of add it. The result is a fine, shiny surface finish.
Able Electropolishing produced this video to explain the electropolishing process, which is used for microfinishing, fatigue life improvement and even deburring in cases where the part is too delicate for more forceful finishing methods.

My excuse, if one is needed, for discussing the detective story, is that in this confused age it is one of the topics equal to the time. Furthermore, it is an inescapable portion of the literature of this past century, virtually part of our daily life, and in its own right is deserving of attention rather than being passed by or patronized with a nod as a trivial form of recreation. It is at its best when marked by good characterization and good writing. I am not talking of so-called "thrillers" which to good detective novels are as chalk to cheese. Nor am I thinking of the modern crop of the genre, most of which are unfortunately adulterated, flawed by mass production, and tricked up with sex and violence. Detective stories are still written according to the classic formulas, but, except in the rarest cases, with only a shadow of

Varsity: Indoor track athletes hone craft before spring
North East runner Ryan Smathers is used to dodging things throughout cross country season.
Whether he has to work his away around trees, fellow runners or any wildlife to come across the course during a meet.
He has to keep that awareness during indoor track as well.
"It can get really annoying as a runner with people and coaches standing so close to the track," Smathers said. "During outdoor meets they have to stay outside the fence, but I've hit two people during indoor meets. Once, my shoulder hit something (that then) fell to the ground and broke, and I also knocked the pen out of someone's hand when I was running the mile. It does help my maneuvering skills, though, to dodge people now and then."
Smathers has experienced the controlled chaos of indoor meets over the past four years and is grateful for the extra training it provides before the traditional track and field season in the spring.
"It really gives you an advantage to keep training and prepare for outdoor," Smathers said. "It's almost, in a sense, harder because turns are sharper, tracks are shorter so you have to run more laps, but it's one of the great experiences you need to get ready for college."
Indoor track and field has become a popular trend, not only in District 10 but on the state and national levels as well. With limited facilities, athletes flock to every event they can compete in throughout the winter season. The meets provide a change from running in the hallways of a school or braving the elements to run outside as the snow falls and the temperature drops.
"It gives track athletes competition instead of just training for a few months," McDowell track and field and cross country coach Becky Glus said. "Back when I was in school, we just had track, and indoor competitions weren't a big deal. Slippery Rock would host some events and we even had some events at McDowell Intermediate School. It really helps kids work on their technique for the field events and it's fantastic for distance runners. It's like the summer warm-up season for cross country."
A boon for Erie athletes and western Pennsylvania is the construction of the Mike S. Zafirovski Sports and Recreation Dome at Edinboro University. The dome hosts several events throughout the winter and is available every Tuesday night from 7:30-9:30 p.m. with a minimal cost of $4 a person.
The dome is the annual home of the Tri-State Track & Field Coaches Association events. The TSTCA hosts three qualifiers, which are two weeks apart, before the TSTCA championships. This year's TSTCA championships are set for Feb. 16 at Edinboro before the Pennsylvania Track & Field Coaches Association state championships on Feb. 23 at Penn State.
"The Pennsylvania coaches have done an outstanding job with indoor track and especially the state championships," PIAA executive director Bob Lombardi said. "Indoor track has become a recognized sport by the PIAA and it has really taken off. I think all districts in Pennsylvania have seen growth in schools participating."
Indoor track has a first practice date and final regular-season date like every other PIAA sport. Schools can compete in only 16 regular-season contests and the sport has the normal restrictions of other sports. The only difference is there are no district championships and the PTFCA runs the state championships instead of the PIAA.
"Indoor track is one of the big reasons I became a track athlete," said McDowell standout Anna Chodubski, who is receiving Division I interest. "I got involved as a freshman not really knowing much about the sport, and I really liked it. Indoor track sets you up well for the outdoor season because you can work on your strength and conditioning. Obviously, you want to win competitions, but improving is the most important thing."
Chodubski has become one of the area's premier jumpers for the Trojans and uses the entire runway when attempting long and triple jumps. She hasn't dealt with the same space issues as Smathers, however.
"Most people know to get out of the way," Chodubski said. "Sometimes they don't see me all the way back on the runway, but they always move."
Indoor track meets aren't like the typical outdoor meets. The track is a little shorter and the area for fans is smaller. Runners and jumpers could almost reach out and touch parents, fans and coaches as they compete, but Villa Maria runner Grace Trucilla enjoys the rush.
"It's more claustrophobic than chaotic, but you definitely feel an adrenaline rush with the crowd so close and cheering you on," Trucilla said. "Indoor track is a big help because it gets you back into the competitive mindset coming off cross country season. Rather than sitting around, it gets me experience and ready to race in the spring."
Although athletes are allowed to start competing in events on Dec. 7, the bulk of the indoor season occurs in January and February. The timing seems to be perfect with the first practice date of the spring season coming March 4.
McDowell and Hickory were some of the first programs in District 10 to participate in indoor track, but more teams in D-10 have started to compete as well. Cathedral Prep and Villa Maria have become veterans at indoor track, along with teams like North East, General McLane and Meadville.
The rising popularity of indoor track also could create a tough decision for athletes. North East runner Anne Lewis is a solid cross country and track and field athlete, but her love for basketball outweighed competing in indoor track over the past few years.
"I didn't really think about the choice because I love basketball," Lewis said. "I still run during the winter, but my focus is on basketball and I'm excited to get back to track in the spring."
One of the few disadvantages to indoor track is the lack of discus and javelin. Indoor facilities are generally not large enough to hold either event, but Hickory's Luke Lewis is fine with focusing on just shot put for a few months.
"I'm a shot putter at heart," said Lewis, who recorded a throw of 59 feet, 11/2 inches at the final TSTCA qualifier on Saturday. "I started out throwing the discus, but when indoor season came, my coach forced me into shot and I began to love it. The techniques are sort of similar because I'm a spinner, but finishing is the only thing I have to work on when the spring rolls around. I want to hit 66 feet in the spring, and the only way I can get there is using indoor track. It has probably added 10 feet to my throws by competing like this in the winter."
Lewis' terrific throw on Saturday is the top throw in the state in the indoor season, and it ranks sixth nationally. He is chasing Matt Bell's school record of 62-1.7.
The winter season has the fewest sports among the three seasons with basketball, hockey, swimming and wrestling. Add in indoor track and participation rates are jumping at schools all around the state.
"It really helps to have something close like Edinboro and not worry about travel expenses," Glus said. "It gives the kids a leg up when outdoor season rolls around, and it gives kids a chance to compete in different events to see what they can excel in."

President's Message
Your Pivotal Role in IACP Membership Growth
The founders of the IACP created this organization because they realized that having law enforcement executives working together, sharing information, and learning from the experience of other police executives was fundamental to their ability to protect their communities from crime and violence. The success of our organization over the last 120 years is a testament to their vision and wisdom.
Of course, in order to fully realize this vision, law enforcement executives from around the United States and the world must become members of the IACP, immerse themselves in the various policy initiatives under way, and join the conversation with their fellow law enforcement leaders as to the future of our profession.
Simply put, the success of the IACP depends on the strength and the diversity of our membership. For this reason, I am committed to increasing the membership of the IACP.
Over the coming year, IACP will be launching a comprehensive campaign to promote the value of our organization and to identify and connect with those individuals who are eligible for membership in the IACP. One of our initial steps in 2013 will be the President's Membership Drive (see information on page 56).
However, you also have a key role to play in assisting the IACP to meeting our vision of "Serving the Leaders of Today, Developing the Leaders of Tomorrow" by encouraging our current and future leaders with their careers by sponsoring these individuals for membership in the IACP. Whether you sponsor a chief from a neighboring jurisdiction, an up-and-coming leader in your agency, or a civilian supporting our profession, you can assure them that IACP membership offers myriad opportunities for professional growth and learning.
When thinking about reaching out to prospective members, remember membership in the IACP is not limited to just police chiefs. Law enforcement professionals in command-level positions qualify for active membership, too, while others working in and associated with law enforcement qualify for associate membership. So whether it is the new chief in your neighboring jurisdiction, a member of your support staff, or a private sector partner, the IACP is open to all who have an interest in law enforcement.
To assist you in your outreach to potential new members, here are some quick highlights about IACP offerings. I invite you to take these highlights with you when you communicate with others about the value of the IACP.
What is the IACP?The IACP is the world's largest association of law enforcement executives. It is a comprehensive professional organization that serves the leaders of today and develops the leaders of tomorrow.
What does the IACP do?For almost 120 years, we have been launching internationally acclaimed programs, speaking out on behalf of law enforcement, conducting groundbreaking research, and providing exemplary programs and services to our members around the world.
How does the IACP do this?The IACP serves the leaders of today through advocacy, training, research, and professional services. The IACP addresses the most pressing issues facing leaders today. From new technologies to emerging threats and trends, the IACP provides comprehensive and responsive service to its members throughout the world.
What does the IACP plan to do in the future?The IACP is focused on developing the law enforcement leaders of tomorrow. The IACP Center for Police Leadership, the New Police Chief Mentoring Project, and numerous other training and educational opportunities are designed to prepare tomorrow's leaders for the challenges and opportunities they will face.
Why IACP?The IACP membership encompasses a diverse and exceptionally professional group from all aspects of the law enforcement profession. IACP members are able to participate in committees and sections of topical interest and readily share successes and challenges with law enforcement leaders from around the world. In addition, members are provided opportunities to participate in summits, project advisory boards, research endeavors, and more. These opportunities provide forums to strengthen professional development, increase leadership capacity, and enhance our collective relevancy on important policy issues.
All of our efforts, training, research, sample policies, smart policing strategies, best practices, and advocacy must be directed at making our worldwide members successful. When you think about it, what other organization can give you the potential value of the IACP for $120 a year in dues?
We present an outstanding annual conference with quality training and networking unsurpassed in our profession. Our committees, sections, and divisions continue to do exceptional work and consistently produce research that is contemporary, valuable, realistic, and extremely useful for any police leader.
I want to thank you for your continuing membership in and support of the IACP. I truly believe that our association derives its strength from the size and the diversity of our membership. With your support, the IACP provides a unified voice for the law enforcement community on both a national and an international level. By providing a platform for the exchange of ideas and best practices between and among law enforcement leaders around the world, the IACP is fulfilling its mission of "Serving the Leaders of Today, Developing the Leaders of Tomorrow." ♦

After a painful season that brought 57 losses, the Boston Celtics naturally want to change their fortunes. And Phil Pressey is reaching pretty high with his goals.
When asked about his objectives for next season during a recent Q & A with Celtics.com's Emily Austen, the point guard said, "I want to make the playoffs. I know the rest of my teammates to make the playoffs as well. So that's what we're going into, to try to do a lot better than we did last year.
"That's our main focus, to improve every single day, like I said, and make the playoffs. That's the fun part. I haven't been a part of it. A lot of my teammates have, but we have young guys who haven't. We're just trying to get there and work from there."
Cue Jim Mora's rant, right? Yeah, probably. The Celtics roster remains a nonsensical concoction designed more for flexibility than production, Danny Ainge hasn't made any of the big moves he had hoped for this summer, and the East might have improved depth-wise – which would make climbing the standings more difficult than last season, when Boston finished 13 games behind Atlanta for the eighth seed.
Even if Ainge doesn't make another trade or two, though, the Celtics should be less bad. Rajon Rondo will be healthy from day one. Avery Bradley, Jared Sullinger and Kelly Olynyk will all be a year older and more used to their roles. Tyler Zeller played OK last year, he's young, and he's a center, which is important. Marcus Smart has looked good at Team USA training camp and should contribute on defense, at the very least. Brad Stevens thinks he should be a lot more comfortable in his second year. Evan Turner and Marcus Thornton are streaky (read: sometimes not very awesome), but can swing games on their good nights.
Ainge hasn't built a contender or even a rational roster, but, while continuing to position for the future, he added a few probable contributors. And even last year, Stevens felt the Celtics could have reached a higher level of basketball if they had just played more together.
"We have to build our team chemistry," Pressey said. "A lot of teams have a lot of talent. We have talent as well. But as you can see, talent isn't always going to win you games. The San Antonio Spurs, they just played well together. Chemistry was a big part of the reason why they won. And I feel like Coach Stevens and the coaches have been implementing that into our team, and it's been helping out so far."
Helping out enough to make the playoffs? Memories of the 2013-14 season are too fresh for me to predict such an optimistic result. The Celtics shouldn't have a lot of shooting, which is a shame, and they still don't have anybody to protect the paint, which also isn't ideal. But even if the roster stays mostly the same as it is now, maybe a postseason berth exists on the fringes of possibility.
A couple of other notes from Pressey's conversation:
1. Two questions related to what Pressey takes from having Rondo as a teammate.
"Just his level of competition, and how he brings the same mentality every day," Pressey replied. "And when he does that, it's not hard for him to lead because guys are going to follow in line. Him being our point guard, him being our captain, and me being a young point guard, it just makes it easy for me to learn from him. I'm not going to try to take any parts of his game and implement them into mine, but I'm just going to try to learn as much as possible, and try to create my own game and use his leadership qualities, and try to use it as I grow."
Sounds good. Keep learning, Phil.
2. If I had to guess the player Pressey looked up to as a child, I would have picked a pass-first point guard, maybe Steve Nash. But the Celtics guard said that after his parents, Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant served as his inspirations.
"One of those two because around my era, when I was young, those were like the best players," Pressey said. "You know how little kids (are), they always love the best players. So I would have to say those two."
Iverson might have appreciated Pressey's old haircut:
Omarion? pic.twitter.com/9wFrFCXWSp— Kris Humphries (@KrisHumphries) January 16, 2014
And he definitely would have enjoyed Pressey's second NBA dunk:

In the twenty-first century protesters and protest groups are well organised and prepared for confrontations. Yet there is only a relatively small body of academic work on protests from either the perspective of protesters or law enforcement agencies. This collection seeks to extend upon this literature. Our objectives are to document through a series of case studies of different situations what motivates people to undertake different forms of social action, what outcomes they seek to achieve in protests, and how they seek to achieve these outcomes.
Examples of topics of interest include:
• Humour and social action;
• Popular (mass) social action;
• Transport blockades;
• Non-violent action;
• Music and social action;
• Destruction of property;
• Media and social action;
Please submit a 1-2 page proposal by 1 February, 2011.
Authors should also attach a brief (one-page maximum) biographical summary. Please direct all inquiries and proposals via email to Dr. Nathan Wise, Dr. Alyce McGovern and Dr. Jenny Wise at email@example.com
