Today I had the opportunity to interview a current student at Oregon State University. Sara King a junior in accounting from Portland, Oregon took some time out of her relaxing holiday break to share her experience being a Beaver Believer. Check out what she said…
Why did you choose Oregon State University?
I wanted to attend a large school that offered lots of options for me as a student. It was also important for me to find a school that had an excellent College of Business. OSU was the school that offered me all of these things and much more.
What's the best thing about being a Beaver?
The school spirit on and off campus and the town of Corvallis, OR.
Best class at OSU?
My favorite class so far has been Art 101. For me this class was particularly interesting because it's so different than the business classes that generally fill up my schedule.
Have you taken advantage of any opportunities to get involved on campus or throughout the community?
Last summer I had the opportunity to study abroad in Argentina for 6 weeks to fulfill requirements for my Spanish minor. Currently I am involved in my sorority Alpha Chi Omega, as well as being a young life leader, and a TOUR Ambassador. One of my favorite things I have been involved with is a club that I founded called the Global Business Brigades. The purpose of this club is to plan one week trips to offer business skills to communities in need.
What is your favorite OSU memory?
When we beat USC the #1 football team in the nation my freshman year!
Do you have any plans after graduation?
This summer I have an internship with a public accounting firm which I hope will lead to a job once I graduate in June 2012. I also have the pleasure of studying for the CPA exam.           Â
Best piece of advice you can give a prospective student who's considering OSU…
Talk to as many current students on campus as you can to get the best idea of the type of people you would be around for 4 years. Also, look into the program and courses you are interested in pursuing.

ORLANDO - The shorthanded 76ers won their first game in the Orlando Pro Summer League on Wednesday, defeating the Brooklyn Nets, 79-71, at the Amway Center.
The Sixers fell behind, 16-4, to start the game. But point guard Zack Rosen and forward Devin Searcy came off the bench to provide a spark with their hustle and savvy play. With the backups on the floor, the Sixers (1-2) took a 17-16 lead.
The game remained close until the Sixers pulled away in the fourth quarter after a flurry of assists by Rosen.
The Penn graduate finished with six points and six assists. Searcy was active at both ends of the court and had six points and three rebounds.

Michael Koncz wants fans to support Timothy James' MP8.ph Website. LOL.
If you want a breakdown of what's happened so far: http://fighthype.com/pages/content10439.html
It looks like that meeting between Pacquiao, Tim James, and Koncz ended in Tim's favor since he has Koncz featuring in one of his website's videos. This is, of course, after Michael Marley made an article questioning it as Manny's official website.
Listen to him @1:30.

Then the floodgates opened, and a 24-13 first-half lead evaporated under a 71-32 Baruch blitz over the final 27 minutes as the Bearcats cruised to a 84-56 rout.
"Once they got going, they were like a sprinter," said CSI coach Tony Petosa. "They just raced past us. They have five guys who can put the ball in the basket."
Welcome to the Dolphins' world, which surely appears upside-down to long-time observers these days.
Devoid of the talent that propelled CSI to 11 conference championships, the once-proud NCAA Division III program slipped to 6-18 overall -- the worst showing in the 30-year history as a four-year school.
Petosa points to stringent new academic standards that seriously endanger freshman eligibility for incoming candidates; the fact that, despite past official proclamations, there are no immediate plans to construct dormitories at the Willowbrook campus; and the traditionally tough sell to Staten Island high schoolers who have options of playing at out-of-town colleges with on-campus housing.
"We have a tough time getting kids into the building," said Petosa, a familiar refrain around the Sports and Recreation Center athletic offices.
CSI has also had a tough time keeping athletic directors -- there have been seven since 1996 and there's a current search while interim AD Dave Pizzuto runs the department.
While the Dolphins continue their downward slide -- they are 64-68 over the past five seasons and haven't won the CUNY tourney in seven years -- programs at Baruch and Brooklyn College appear to be improving.
"Take a look at Baruch (since the ARC Arena at the school's new campus was opened prior to the 2002-03 season)," said Petosa. "They have the most successful athletic program in the conference. They increased funding and made athletics an obvious priority. You can feel the electricity when you walk into the building.
"And the proof is in the pudding."
The top-seeded Bearcats take a perfect 13-0 record into Sunday's 1 p.m. CUNY quarterfinal against eighth-seeded CSI, which owns a 3-10 conference mark.
A recent Advance sports column indicated that CSI's administration is eager to support a national-class athletics program. Petosa could well argue that a decade ago he had such a program -- one that qualified for the NCAA Division III men's basketball tournament three times between 1996 and 2002.
In recent years, the Dolphins have watched a handful of key players quit during the course of a season.
Two players who had earned CUNY All-Star status actually transferred to rival conference schools and competed against their former teammates.
A decade ago, such defections were unheard of.
"The word we use all the time is continuity ... and we don't have it anymore," said Petosa. "I'm working hard to get it, but it's difficult to do in the present environment.
"We've taken a step back."
Petosa points out that he predicted five years ago that CSI's athletic programs were headed downward because of new academic standards. To be accepted into the school's baccalaureate program, an incoming freshman must carry approximately an 80 core average from high school and score 900 in the SATs.
If prospective students are accepted into the two-year associate program (a prelude to the baccalaureate program) but fall short of those standards, they must sit out at least one semester while building their academic credentials.
"We have to tell kids when we're recruiting them that they might not be eligible right away," said Petosa. "That's not the best way to convince kids who might be interested that they should play basketball at CSI."
Complicating matters, CSI's athletic teams are affected by three governing bodies: the NCAA, the CUNY and CSI itself.
"The situation (of athletic eligibility) was caused by interpretation of NCAA rules," said Petosa. "Sometimes, I think our set of rules interpretation are more stringent than the other two (NCAA and CUNY)."
As for the proposed on-campus dormitories, construction has been pushed back indefinitely. The building project orginally was scheduled to be completed in 2009, then the school announced that the dorms would open in 2010.
Despite a whopping 42-14 lead in the all-time series against Baruch, the Dolphins have dropped six of the last eight meetings.
It will be uncharted territory for CSI, which has never entered the postseason tourney as the No. 8 seed. Then again, an upset would be of gigantic proportions. And last year, third-seeded CSI was knocked off at home in the first round by eventual CUNY champion John Jay, seeded sixth.
"We didn't do ourselves any favors by finishing eighth," insisted Petosa of Sunday's matchup. "They manhandled us the first time we played. We played much better against (No. 2) Brooklyn (a 80-77 overtime loss) and (No. 3) York (a 66-63 loss)."
Petosa is winding down his 19th season at the coaching helm -- following a record-setting playing career and short apprenticeship as an assistant coach at his alma mater.
He says the challenge has never been greater.
"I take losing very hard ... very personal," said Petosa, who has a 295-219 career record and three CUNY crowns. "I've put all I have into this program, and so have my assistants over the years. My reputation at one time was pretty solid, but the bottom line is that people look at wins and losses, nothing else.
"We were successful in the past with 'program kids,' student-athletes who signed up for four years and stuck with it. We're getting fewer of those kids now."

Central Oregonians took a journey back to prehistoric times this weekend in Redmond.
About 65 million years back, to be exact -- to the time of dinosaurs.
Jurassic Quest brought "Return of the Dinosaurs" to the Hooker Creek Event Center at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds on Saturday and Sunday.
The exhibit featured more than 50 moving replicas of life-sized dinosaurs.
Kids also got to try their hands at working as paleontologists; digging through sandboxes, searching for fossils.
Hundreds attended the event each day.
Other activities included a 'Dino Bounce' area, face-painting and dinosaur rides.
"The dinosaurs in there looked -- they looked really realistic, and they looked really real," 11-year-old Bend resident Riley Johnson said Sunday.
Nine-year-old Emma Savage of Bend said, "I wanted to learn how their body structures moved in each place, and I thought it was really cool how it looked like they were breathing on their own."
The educational exhibit also featured fun facts about the dinosaurs and their habits while they lived 65 million years ago.
The collection featured dinosaurs from three time periods.

Incomplete Information Equilibria: Separation Theorems and Other Myths
David Feldman
Banking and Finance, UNSW Business School, UNSW Australia; Financial Research Network (FIRN)
Annals of Operations Research, Special Issue on 'Financial Modeling', Forthcoming
The incomplete information financial economic equilibrium (IIE) literature has been growing at an increasing rate since its inception in the early 1980s. This paper examines issues and concepts essential to understanding, implementing, and testing IIE and understanding its relation to complete information equilibria (CIE). Concepts include the number of state variables in an IIE vis-a-vis the number of state variables in a corresponding CIE; the irrelevance of separation theorems to IIE and the relevance, instead, of a more general state space (re-)representation theorem; the identification of unobservable productivity processes that lead to complete information; the relative level of variable variances in a CIE and the corresponding IIE; stochastic CIE with corresponding deterministic IIE and deterministic CIE with corresponding stochastic IIE; the relationship between IIE and incomplete markets; the (im)persistence of heterogeneous beliefs; and the relation of IIE to the model uncertainty/ambiguity approaches. Understanding these concepts under IIE facilitates understanding the CIE, a special case of IIE.

Crossbow legal for hunting in your state?

> Crossbow legal for hunting in your state?
January 1, 2003, 02:02 AM
Here in New York State only the disabled can use them. AT least that is what I have been told by my buddy who gives the hunting courses locally. Does your state allow this type of hunting?

Same thing here--disabled only.
January 1, 2003, 10:52 AM
Last I checked the regs (in Georgia) is was for the disabled only.
(Apparently the disabled have an easier time drawing a 180-250# prod than the physically fit. ;) )
January 1, 2003, 12:38 PM
Here in Michigan you can legally hunt with on during the firearms season. But only the disabled can use one during the archery season.
January 1, 2003, 04:18 PM
PA: Disabled-only last I checked
IN: They have a late doe season where anyone can use a crossbow.

Indiana used to be disabled only. At the time in undergrad I was selling archery stuff in a sporting goods store.
Had "disabled" guys look at crossbows and then ask, "well, how the heck am I suppossed to cock it?" "Well, sir, if you buy it today (on the current commissions spiff), I'll cock it for ya and you can load and shoot it on opening day." "But, it's July!" Anything for the customer.:D
Should have carried some of those windlass, crossbow winder thingies. Maybe some day.
January 1, 2003, 06:37 PM
They are legal here in Ohio during the archery and shotgun season, but during shotgun season wearing hunter orange is required. I prefer my old Bear compound bow, it's much lighter than most crossbows. Take care, Mikey
January 1, 2003, 07:22 PM
To my knowledge unless changed recently it is illegal in NC to hunt with a xbow. I think it actually requires a permit to purchase, but I'll have to verify that.
It really does not make sense to me since you can hunt with rifle, shotgun, and bow. How can the xbow be more advantageous?? :confused:
January 2, 2003, 01:27 AM
I see that they got rid of the 500 ft/lb @ 100 yard requirement for handguns.
Ironically, this means it is legal to hunt deer with a Beretta Jetfire again in Georgia... :scrutiny:
January 3, 2003, 03:35 AM
In NC you must get a permit to purchase a crossbow,and only the disabled can apply for a permit to hunt with one legally.
NC Hunter Education Instructor
January 6, 2003, 12:14 AM
In Wisconsin, only holders of a disability license can use them. Most of the guys I know of that hunt with a crossbow get a little help from a friend or relative - helping them set up and presumably cocking the thing for them - should only need the one bolt if all goes according to plan!
I think possibly the states that don't allow general use of crossbow during seasons open to most other weapons do so because:
1) It makes poaching enforcement less impossibly difficult - crossbows are quite popular among the nocturnal hunting set here, especially "Up North" - easy to fire from the window of a building or a car window, nearly as easy to aim as a gun, but of course silent, and there's no drawing motion to spook game.
2) They want to preserve the illusion that archery seasons are still "primitive" and keep the traditional flavor of the season intact. Just don't think about the electric-sighted, CAD-CAM created, 80% let-off, "no I don't have to actually touch the string, I pull this trigger!" archery devices already in use.
3) The pope banned them - no wait that was a long time ago.;)

Minnesota: Disabled only here too.

January 7, 2003, 10:06 PM
CadwalladerÃMy WI friend who is disabled (paralysed L. arm) states that you're correct, there it's certified disabled only, and only during archery season. He adds that X-bows are better than not bowhunting at all, but that if you can manage to draw a regular compound, you're much better off. He holds a nylon tab attached to the string with his teeth, draws a lefthanded bow with his right arm, and releases with his teeth. He was 8th in the state archery tournament last year, no special category for disabled. I guess he has a very good set of teeth. Plus he practices religiously, as should any archer.
Disadvantages of a x-bow, according to my friend, who began with one when he resumed hunting after his car accident, are 1) hard to cock, 2) short range, and 3) poor penetration. They fire a short, heavy bolt with a short movement of the string (relative to a "regular" bow), so the bolt has small energy for its mass, and starts slowing down quickly. Under 20 yd. they're OK, but why use one unless that's all you can use.
My friend is active in UFFDA, the United Foundation for Dsabled Archers, and encourages every disabled hunter he sees to join UFFDA, and to use a regular bow if they possibly can.
BTW, UFFDA is a fine organization, puts on hunts helping disabled hunters get back into the sport they loved, and is deserving of the support of all of us "normal" hunters. They can use volunteer help. Doing so sure helps me put my own little aches and pains and difficulties in proper perspective!

...He holds a nylon tab attached to the string with his teeth, draws a lefthanded bow with his right arm, and releases with his teeth. He was 8th in the state archery tournament last year, no special category for disabled...
Holy cow! Just goes to show you what the human animal is capable of when properly motivated.:)
January 9, 2003, 12:49 AM
In California it appears you can hunt with them, but not during bowhunting season...guess they are considered like rifles...:scrutiny:
January 9, 2003, 10:33 PM
Disabled can use during Archery Season. (Requires permit, and must be certified 100% disabled by either Social Security or VA).
Legal during General Gun season.
January 10, 2003, 10:49 AM
Virginia is disabled only as well. The only crossbow I have seen was cocked with a small winch that you carried seperatly. It wasn't hard at all, nor was it quick.
On the thread drift topic, Virginia only requires 350 Ft Lb at the muzzle for handgun hunting. No Jetfires, but in theroy a snub nose 38 special could be legal, as I think they use the ammo manufactuers rating.
Joe Demko
January 10, 2003, 01:52 PM
PA- disabled may use them state-wide. In one small area around Philadelphia (which is also shotgun-only during firearms season) they are legal with the proper stamp.
January 14, 2003, 06:30 PM
Bruz, that's correct. Crossbows are not considered archery equipment and are therefore illegal during the archery season, but are legal during the general season.
January 17, 2003, 11:21 AM
And to further muddy the "is it a bow or a gun?" waters, here's the Airrow brand modified Ruger .22 rifle barrel that fires arrows.
Airrow Rimfire (http://www.swivelmachine.com/html/rimfire.htm)
Looks like a well-designed device, and if their accuracy claims are true, a very lethal one - but it sure isn't something I want to see in the field during archery season, except maybe in the hands of the disabled hunters.

Our founder, Paul Sperry, was born into a family with a long sea-faring tradition. Paul grew up listening to his great-grandfather speak of wild adventures in the South Seas. These tales set the stage for young Paul's inventive spirit, passion for sailing and curiosity for adventure.
The rough seas, a slippery deck and a struggle for sure footing almost cost Paul Sperry his life; and began his long and ambitious quest for a solution. One day in 1935, after watching his dog dart effortlessly across the ice on a cold Connecticut day, he was inspired to carved grooves – like those on his dog's paws – into the bottom of a rubber sole. In that moment of inspiration, the world's first boat shoe was born.

What's up at P.I. Downs
Live racing returns May 11, which is just 17 days away. It only seems longer because winter just ended a few days ago.
Race season, so far, will feature 13 different stakes races with $75,000 or more guaranteed. Two big ones kickoff the season: the Inaugural Stakes for 3-year-old fillies on May 11, and the Tom Ridge Stakes for 3-year-olds on May 12.
Both are six-furlong races with a $100,000 guarantee.
Race season rolls from May 11 to Sept. 25.
- Of course, May 11 is notable for one reason, as anyone who has ever had a mom would know.
The Backstretch Buffet will offer a Mothers' Day Champagne Brunch from 11 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. on May 11.
Cost is $17.95.
- Rock 'n' roll takes over the clubhouse this weekend. First up: Midlife Crisis on Friday. They go heavy on classic rock from the 1960s through more current fare.
M-80s play on Saturday, escorting you through new wave, hair metal and one-hit "Pop Muzik" wonders.

A 55-year-old man had his serum cholesterol level measured at a shopping mall 2 months ago. His cholesterol level was elevated and he comes to you, his primary care physician, for advice. He does not smoke, is not obese, and does not have hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or any first-order relatives with premature coronary heart disease (CHD). You repeat his cholesterol test and schedule a follow-up appointment. The test confirms an elevated cholesterol level (7.9 mmol/L [305 mg/dL]), but before deciding on a treatment recommendation, you elect to find out just how big a reduction in the risk of CHD this patient could expect from a cholesterollowering diet or drug therapy.
There are a number of cholesterol-lowering trials, and instead of trying to find and review all of the original studies yourself, you use Grateful Med to find a recent overview. On the first subject line you

Ona distant planet, far across our galaxy, an editorial conference is in progress. The esteemed editor of the Galactic Annals of Child Health is locked in intense discussion with his clinical research analytic biometrist (CRAB). The editor often consults with the CRAB in regard to the numerical style used in the Annals.
Editor: Why do you carp incessantly about number descriptions in the form m±n? I see this usage in many other journals.
CRAB: Such descriptions are often incomplete or misleading.
Editor: How are they incomplete?
CRAB: Authors may not define the number at m or at n, and the presence of symmetry (denoted by the plus-minus sign) may not be demonstrated.

• The objective of this study was to determine the reliability of immunocytochemical assays of hormone receptors using specimens obtained by fine-needle aspiration of breast cancers. A peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunocytochemical assay was used on 96 aspirates from 47 patients to determine estrogen and progesterone receptor status. Of 27 estrogen receptor–positive cases by steroid-binding analysis, 25 were positive by immunocytochemical assay. Of 21 estrogen receptor–negative cases, 17 were negative by immunocytochemical assay. Of 21 progesterone receptor–positive cases 19 were positive by immunocytochemical assay. Of 27 progesterone receptor–negative cases 25 were negative by immunocytochemical assay. An additional 11 small tumors were evaluated by immunocytochemical assay alone and results were interpretable based on our prior data. With the caveat that a cellular aspirate is obtained, immunocytochemical assay can distinguish hormone receptor–negative and hormone receptor–positive tumors and can be used to assay tumors too small for standard steroid-binding analysis.

Outdoor recreation can be difficult for people with disabilities. Specialized recreational equipment for the physically challenged is often expensive, making getting outside a near impossibility for some. The Eastern Adaptive Sportsman's Association organizes outdoor sporting trips for people who normally wouldn't be able to participate due to a psychical disability. We spend a day with members of the association as they take a group fishing on Lake Champlain.

I'm looking for someone who can turn a bunch (820 to be exact) of personal iPhone photo's and video's and turn them into an image file (.iso, .dmg or something), which can be directly burned to DVD and can be watched with every dvd player.
What you'll need to do:
- Turn every picture that is taken the wrong way (i.e. picture is taking in landscape mode, but should be portrait mode)
- Encode it in such a way so that it can be watched with every DVD-player.
- Add a nice menu to the DVD.
The end result should be an .iso file (or two) or any other image file which can directly be burned to a dvd. It needs to be viewable ON EVERY DVD PLAYER.
Are you the person who can help me out? Just send me a message

UNFCCC Secretariat Publishes Canada's Fifth National Communication
10 November 2011: The UNFCCC Secretariat has published the report (FCCC/IDR.5/CAN) of the in-depth review of the fifth national communication (NC5) of Canada. The Expert Review Team (ERT) concludes that the NC5 generally provides a good overview of the national climate policy of Canada.
The information provided in the NC5 includes most mandatory information required by the UNFCCC reporting guidelines and most elements of the supplementary information under Article 7 of the Kyoto Protocol. During the review, Canada provided additional information on all requested areas so that all mandatory elements were fulfilled. However, the NC5 does not contain information on how Canada's use of the mechanisms under Articles 6, 12 and 17 of the Kyoto Protocol is supplemental to domestic action. During the review, Canada clarified that it is not planning to make significant use of the Kyoto Protocol mechanisms to meet its target under the first commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol.
The ERT notes that changes in the policy framework have slowed down the mitigation action in Canada considerably and that some earlier planned policies and measures (PaMs) were never implemented and have not yet been fully replaced by other PaMs to achieve equivalent emission reductions. The ERT encourages Canada to undertake a number of improvements regarding transparency and completeness of reporting by moving beyond the bare minimum required by the guidelines.

KCI Buying Materials
I am good friends with all the big box stores and all the small hardware stores in town. I go at least once a day to pick things up. When people say they use scavenged or recycled items, I wonder if they have been collecting things for years or if they have a huge garage that they can rummage through to find what they need. Sure I'm going to be furnishing the place with used furniture and dishes because I can do that over time, and the local 2nd hand stores have a lot of items to choose from.
Aside from Habitat for Humanity's Restore where do I find "on-demand" building supplies? Craig's list has been a total bust for me. Again, if I'd been gathering things over the last few years, I'd be good. Alas I didn't.

City Council on Thursday showed the first signs of rebellion against Mayor Nutter's plan to reform the city's property tax system while picking up an extra $90 million in the process.
Councilman Mark Squilla, whose First District in South Philadelphia could face some of the steepest tax increases from the switch, introduced a bill to keep the current system and tax rates for one more year.
Squilla's bill and other grumblings from Council members emerged just days before Nutter administration officials are scheduled to testify before Council on their proposed budget.

[xsl] current-group()[1] within xsl:for-each-group
Date: 3/2/2005 2:16:00 AM
This is a much harder problem than my previous question :-/ I've got this in a template: <xsl:for-each-group select="mb3e:document" group-by="mb3e:fam_id"> <xsl:sort select="mb3e:prim_sort_key"/> <xsl:variable name="first-structured-number" select="esd:structured-number(current-group()[1])"/> <xsl:apply-templates mode="mil" select="current-group()"> <xsl:with-param name="family-structured-number" select="$first-structured-number"/> <xsl:sort select="mb3e:date_list/mb3e:date[@type='PUBL']" order="descending"/> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:for-each-group> The idea is to process the mb3e:document elements in groups, which are defined as having mb3e:fam_id subelements with the same content. And within each group, to process them in reverse order of their publication date (in YYYY-MM-DD format), in each case using the result of calling the esd:structured-number function on the most recent document. (The groups themselves are processed according to the mb3e:prim_sort_key order.) The esd:structured-number function is slow, so I only want to call it once per group. Actually, the template that is applied within the xsl:for-each-group instruction has to call it for each mb3e:document element, but I want to avoid calling it more than once for any of those elements (including the first, i.e. most recent): <xsl:variable name="structured-number" select="if (position() = 1) then $family-structured-number else esd:structured-number(.)"/> I think this works most of the time, but sometimes the family-structured-number parameter value (i.e. $first-structured-number) is not the value that would be returned if the esd:structured-number function were called on the most recent mb3e:document element in the group. For example, in once case it was the 7th most recent of a group of 58. Is there something inherently wrong with the code above? I know from the output that the mb3e:document elements are grouped and sorted as I intend. The output also indicates that the postition() = 1 test in the mb3e:document template is working. But for some reason the current-group()[1] expression within the xsl:for-each-group instruction isn't always returning the element I expect. Just in case, here's an abbreviated example showing all the referenced elements and attributes above: <document> <prim_sort_key>MIL PRF 0000001</prim_sort_key> <date_list> <date type="PUBL">2003-06-11</date> <date type="PUBL_MOD">2003-06-17</date> <date type="IHS_MOD">2003-07-22</date> </date_list> <fam_id>AOUBEAAAAAAAAAAA</fam_id> </document> Thanks, -- Kevin Rodgers

Ed Snider was in the midst of a rant about how he'd like to take a torch to the NHL's Olympic connection after these Games in Sochi, Russia, that will bring the league to a halt at the end of the week.
"No other league does it, why should we?" the Flyers owner said.
Snider is worried that the Olympic break, which lasts 2½ weeks and puts some of the game's greatest players at risk of injury, will sap the momentum from his team, which continued one of its best stretches of the season with a 3-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday night at the Wells Fargo Center.

We know that quotation, attributed to Francois-Marie Arouet (AKA Voltaire of the 18th century), reminds us how difficult communicating is if meanings of words are not mutual. Current political groups require Focus Groups to unravel the confusion.
Consider Alex Smith, Chair of the College Republican National Committee, who on All Things Considered (June 3, NPR) reported confusion over terms Republicans use. She said Republicans under the age of 30 do not understand the party's "brand names" such as "big government."
We live in complicated times, especially when it comes to communicating in speech and writing. But if we want words to transcend brand names and generations, we can turn to staples. One staple reaching from one generation to another and another is the late Shel Silverstein's "Where the Sidewalk Ends."
Published in 1974 and still favored by educators, Silverstein's collection of poems and drawings especially suits ages 4-10. That book we once shared with our young loved ones now lies in their own children's laps. It's sometimes so positively addictive that we are surprised: Yes! That really is a book the child clutches, not some electronic game. How refreshing! How necessary!
So what makes "Where The Sidewalk Ends" inviting? Well, to start with, the opening poem "Invitation" says, "Come in!" The poem invites everyone: "dreamer," "wisher," "pray-er," "liar," "hope-er." Think how a child might question: "Liar?" or have fun hearing and saying "hope-er." (Later, a poem with a bunch of hopeless "nots" concludes hopefully with "ANYTHING can be.")
Pages continue with funny pairings. For instance, next to a sketch of an acrobat hanging by her nose is a poem whose rhymes "knees," "please," "breeze" meet the final plea "Don't sneeze."
Actually, the sketches alone lure, whether a long nose on "Miss Betsy Blue Bonnet," big fish eating little fish, or a merry-less Christmas tree.
Then, there are cute derivatives of platitudes. Consider the iconoclastic in "Early Bird." Sure there is the advantage of being an early bird catching the worm, but those lines run into a warning: "if you're a worm, sleep late." Similar, with something-to-think-about and amusing tone, is "Ma and God." The poem states:
God-givens (fingers, voices, puddles) along with Ma statements ("Use your fork, "Don't scream," and "Don't splash"). The irony might not be clear to a young child, yet certainly would be to older siblings reading to the younger. And that kind of harmless irreverence is another characteristic that makes the book cleverly captivating to children.
Evocatively imaginative is the title poem; it speaks of cooling "in the peppermint wind."
"Where the Sidewalk Ends" is an unending wonder because it loves language; it offers imaginative voyages; and it mixes abounding humor with life's ironies. No need for a Focus Group to understand why the book continues circling our lives.

COSTUMED: Serena Williams, 22, turned heads at Monday's kickoff of the U.S. Open in Flushing Meadows, N.Y. – and it wasn't just for her tennis. The champ was outfitted in a Gladiator-style blue denim Nike miniskirt, jeweled tanktop and, the most odd touch of all, black sneaker go-go boots. Celebrity stylist Phillip Bloch tells New York's Daily News: "She brings a style and a sizzle to tennis that we haven't seen before ... (a look) that is really fun." Williams easily beat first-round opponent Sandra Kleinova of the Czech Republic 6-1, 6-3.
SCHEDULED: Four guests hosts have been lined up to sit in the Late Late Show host seat vacated last Friday by Craig Kilborn. The void is currently being filled by repeats. Starting Sept. 20, Ed actor Michael Ian Black, The Hughleys star D.L. Hughley, writer-comic Amy Sedaris and sports talk host Jim Rome will rotate on the CBS program, say reports.
BORN: CNN anchor Soledad O'Brien, 37, gave birth to twin boys Monday, reports the Associated Press. Charlie was born at 6:23 p.m. and Jackson came four minutes later. Jackson, at 7 lbs. 2 oz., outweighed his brother by an ounce. The New York-based O'Brien and husband Brad Raymond have two daughters: Sofia, 3, and Cecilia, 2.
DEPARTED: Golden Globe nominee Bitty Schram, 36, will not be returning to USA's Monk in her role as Sharona, the nurse and assistant to the obsessive-compulsive detective played by Tony Shalhoub. "Monk has decided to go in a different creative direction with some of its characters," a USA spokesman said. A statement from Schram's management firm called the split amicable.

When Punishment Doesn't Pay: 'Cold Glow' and Decisions to Punish
Aurelie Ouss
University of Chicago Crime Lab
Alexander Peysakhovich
Yale University - Human Cooperation Lab
February 2015
Economic theories of punishment focus on determining the levels that provide maximal social material payoffs. In calculating these levels several parameters are key: total social costs, total social benefits and the probability that offenders are apprehended. However, levels of punishment often are determined by aggregates of individual decisions. Research in behavioral economics, psychology and neuroscience shows that individuals appear to treat punishment as a private good ("cold glow"). Thus individual choices may not respond "appropriately" to the parameters above. This can have large consequences: realized punishment levels can be predictably above or below those that maximize aggregate material payoffs. Such behavior can lead to inefficiencies in final social outcomes such as levels of cooperation and total costs incurred. We confirm these predictions in a series of experiments. Our findings highlight the importance of the psychology of punishment for understanding social outcomes and for designing social mechanisms, for example in sentencing policy.

text: That's cool that they have identified the actual peptides involved with eliciting an immune response. It seems like they are excited about the discovery because this will allow them to design a drug that will inhibit this response. I have celiac disease and even if there were a pill available for me to take, I still wouldn't purposefully eat gluten. That's like eating poison and then immediately taking an antidote. I just don't see the point. The only time I would consider taking medication for gluten digestion is if I were eating out at a restaurant and I wanted some extra insurance against cross-contamination.

WAILUKU - A Kihei man, who was recognized on store surveillance video by a former neighbor, was convicted of burglarizing a Wailuku gun shop in an attempt to steal guns.
A 2nd Circuit Court jury returned the verdicts Thursday morning, finding Adam Blancarte, 32, guilty of second-degree burglary, attempted first-degree theft, second-degree criminal property damage and fourth-degree theft.
The break-in occurred at about 4:30 a.m. Jan. 20 when Blancarte ripped open a corrugated metal section of wall to enter Maui Ammo & Gun Supply, which was under construction on Eha Street in Wailuku, Deputy Prosecutor Justine Hura told jurors.
Article Photos
She said Blancarte was able to disable the alarm system and went through a back alley, moving a umpster and eventually kicking or punching a hole in the wall of the business. Through the wall, he went into a bathroom and from there got into a bay area that was being converted into a gun safety classroom, she said.
Blancarte took a screwdriver and another tool used for taking apart guns, ripped down a motion detector and tried to hack through a deadbolt on a door leading to the gun sales office, Hura said.
"Behind that door are 24 handguns in a safe and 18 long guns in another safe," she said. Also in the store were 110,000 rounds of ammunition and 270 pounds of gunpowder.
Blancarte gave up on trying to break into the office and left the business at about 5:40 a.m., shortly before Alex Redeker showed up for work at Mid Pacific Pest Control, which is next door to the gun shop, Hura said. Both businesses are owned by Redeker's father, Mark Redeker.
It wasn't until about 2:30 that afternoon that Alex Redeker discovered the more than $1,500 damage to the gun store.
He was reviewing surveillance video of the outside area during the break-in when Mid Pacific employee Scott Verber recognized his former neighbor Blancarte as the burglar.
"He was familiar with his body language and characteristics," Hura said during opening statements to jurors.
In the days before the break-in, Blancarte had been seen at the business. Once he was in his blue truck with California license plates parked at the store. Another time, he parked the truck up the street and walked into the gun store construction area, first asking about buying ammunition and guns, then asking about the project contractor, Hura said.
In his opening statement, defense attorney Matthew Padgett said Blancarte had approached the shop trying to find work, but that didn't mean he returned the day the business was burglarized.
There were no eyewitnesses to the burglary, Padgett said, and no fingerprints or forensic evidence. "The only thing that they have got is some videotape," Padgett said.
While the videotape showed the outside of the business, he said there were no photos of anyone inside.
The screwdriver and other tool were found outside afterward, Padgett said.
Jurors deliberated for about two hours Thursday morning before reaching the verdicts.
"We thank the jury for its service," Hura said afterward.
Blancarte is scheduled to be sentenced at 9:30 a.m. Jan. 15. The most serious conviction, for attempted first-degree theft, carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison.
After being arrested last month on a warrant alleging he violated conditions of his bail, Blancarte is being held at the Maui Community Correctional Center in lieu of $100,000 cash-only bail.
Judge Joseph Cardoza presided over the trial.

The author of this modest but authoritative volume is well known to workers in the field of drug addiction as a clinician and research scientist with great personal dedication to problems which beset the narcotic addict in the United States. The 12 chapters of the book represent Dr. Kolb's 40 years of experience in the field, during which time he has studied addicts in various settings—hospitals, prisons, and in their homes. Over the years he has been closely concerned with furthering the study of addiction in this country as a medical rather than a forensic problem. One of Dr. Kolb's major interests has been the investigation of personality structure underlying the tendency for some individuals to become addicts and subsequently to relapse repeatedly to the use of addicting drugs following withdrawal. A related concern has been the effect of narcotics upon these individuals over varying periods of time.

Fourteen-year-old Jackson White of James Island will be doing something next week that local professional baseball standouts Brett Gardner, Justin Smoak and Matt Wieters wish they were doing. White will be participating in Major League All-Star Game festivities at CitiField in New York.
Not in the game itself, but in the Pitch, Hit & Run competition that will be held Monday. He is one of 24 boys and girls ages 7-14 trying to win a national title. The participants will throw six pitches at a strike zone-sized target, sprint the bases from second to home plate and then hit for distance.
Later that day, White and the other qualifiers will get to shag balls hit by major leaguers during the Home Run Derby before the winners are recognized. White, his parents Jim and Pam White, and older brother Zan will also attend Tuesday's All-Star Game.
White, who played third base, shortstop and pitched this summer for a North Charleston 16-17U Dixie Youth Pre-Majors team, has always been a standout athlete. At 6-2, he was one of the tallest point guards in his basketball league. He won the 2011 Pitch, Hit & Run competition in Atlanta and finished seventh nationally.
Ken King, who began coaching Jackson at age 9 and attended the Pitch, Hit & Run event in Atlanta both times that Jackson competed, said he was not surprised.
"He's always been that bigger kid everybody looked up to," King said. "I've always said to my other coaches, 'If anyone has a chance of playing beyond high school and college, Jackson is one of them.' He has raw talent and size."
The road to CitiField wasn't easy. White won the sectional event held at St. Andrew's Playground by one point. The top three scores in his age group (13-14) in the six-state region then advanced to the Atlanta Braves team event. White won that, then had to wait until June 30 when the top three from all of the Major League Baseball teams were announced on the MLB Network as qualifiers for the All-Star Game.
The Whites had gone to Pam's parents' house to watch the announcement because they don't get the MLB Network.
"I was pretty nervous. I didn't know whether I was going to make it or not. My score from Atlanta was the highest I had ever done. I knew there was a chance, but I had no idea I was going to be one of the three," said White, who is a rising freshman at James Island Charter High School.
Time dragged over the entire weekend, Pam White said. They were told the announcement would come sometime between 6:30 p.m. and 7:10 p.m., so they began watching 10 minutes early and the announcement wasn't made until the last minute of the show.
"We didn't want to be thinking about it, but we couldn't not think about it," Pam said. "We were not expecting it, but of course hoping it would happen.
"I was trying to tape it on my phone kinda quietly. I didn't want it to be a big deal in case he didn't make it, but my hands were shaking too badly, so it was just a blur. Then we all started screaming so hard I think I dropped the phone. It was surreal."
Pam said the family was so busy jumping and celebrating that she can't remember Jackson's reaction.
"I think we all just attacked him," she said. "I don't think he had a chance to respond. I think he was pretty much mobbed by all of us. And then after about five minutes of us jumping around and yelling, he looked at his brother and said 'Let's go fishing,' which I think is pretty funny. I think they didn't know what to do at that point."
It was quite a day. They caught fish and they learned they were going to the All-Star Game.
Jackson White of James Island will compete at the Major League All-Star Game after winning the Atlanta Braves' Pitch, Hit & Run event.×

Shelter killing is the leading cause of death for healthy dogs and cats in the United States. It doesn't have to be...
Defining No Kill
There are some shelters that claim a 90% save rate is No Kill. In reality, achieving a 90% save rate is the start of shelter reform and modernization, not the realization of it.
While we should celebrate the increasing success of cities who are saving 90% or better, the goal of the No Kill movement is not to reduce killing to some consensus-based level, such as 10%. It is to end killing for all animals who are not irremediably suffering physically, rigorously defined.
Otherwise, the movement legitimizes the killing of animals who can and should be saved while betraying the very ethos at the heart of the term "No Kill."
The No Kill Equation
Animals enter shelters for a variety of reasons and with a variety of needs, but for over 100 years, the "solution" has been the same: adopt a few and kill the rest. The No Kill Equation provides a humane, life-affirming means of responding to every type of animal entering a shelter, and every type of need those animals might have. Some animals entering shelters are "feral" cats. At traditional shelters, they are killed, but at a No Kill shelter, they are sterilized and released back to their habitats. Some animals entering shelters are motherless puppies and kittens. At traditional shelters, these animals are killed as well. At a No Kill shelter, they are sent into a foster home to provide around-the-clock care until they are eating on their own and old enough to be adopted. Some animals have medical or behavior issues. At a traditional shelter, they are killed. At a No Kill shelter, they are provided with rehabilitative care and then adopted. Whatever the situation, the No Kill Equation provides a lifesaving alternative that replaces killing.
By the Numbers
No Kill Advocate's Toolkit
How can a shelter fix a problem they refuse to admit exists? They can't. They don't. And they won't. So you will have to do it for them. Our free No Kill advocate's Toolkit will show you how.
Be a Superhero
There are many ways to help achieve a No Kill community. You can force the shelter to change by passing legislation. You can engage in political advocacy. You can rescue animals directly from death row and find them homes yourself. You can take over the shelter. You can create a national campaign. And more. When others won't, you can always Do It Yourself!
At the No Kill Advocacy Center, we're big on empowering the grassroots.

André Villas-Boas repeated his strong criticism of Chris Foy last night, despite being asked to explain to the FA his previous outspoken comments about the referee.
The Chelsea manager is in danger of picking up a second indictment of improper conduct after the club were charged with failing to ensure their players behaved in an orderly manner during Sunday's 1-0 defeat away to Queens Park Rangers, when they had two players sent off.
Villas-Boas has until Friday to respond to the FA in writing, but will not back down. The Portuguese is adamant that his side were not judged by
